Just when The Maniac thinks the feud is over, the Spanish God drags him back in! The Blackpool Combat Club and Jericho Appreciation Society are far from through with each other, but will Moxley put Sammy in his place?
The bell rings and Sammy KNEES Moxley down! Sammy stomps Moxley in the corner, Tay talks trash, but the ref counts.

The ref counts, Sammy lets off, but Moxley avoids the haymaker to CHOP! And CHOP! And CHOP again! Moxley whips corner to corner, Sammy bounces off buckles into a LARIAT!

Winner: Jon Moxley, by submission
Daniel Garcia sighs and shakes his head. Does the Dragonslayer disapprove of how Sammy-senpai went about that? What will Garcia learn from watching this loss?
As for Moxley, he gets a mic and says, “I told ya where I would be on Friday night, and I’m right here. So Cowboy, where are ya? I ain’t waitin’ all night!” Well here comes HANGMAN!

Saraya speaks on Hayter VS Shida.
The Revolution says, “Both of these women are AEW Women’s Champions. I wanna watch very closely, cuz I’m coming for that championship.” Saraya also tells Britt Baker, “Last week, you gave me some tickets.” Saraya can either be a fan at the Kia Forum on January 11th, or she can get in the ring for a tag match with Britt & Hayter. Those two “have been nothing but menaces backstage. I have such a plethora of talent to choose from, and we’re coming for you.” So then, who is joining Saraya against “The Pillar & The Killer?” We’ll just have to wait and see in 2023.
Rampage returns with FTR in the ring.
Fans fire up for Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood, and they have the mics. Cash says, “Last week kinda sucked, I won’t lie. And it’s probably not for the reasons you think. It’s not just because we lost the AEW Tag Team title match. It’s not just because we lost the ROH Tag Team titles. It’s not just because Dax broke his ass bone.” Dax even pulls his pants down enough to show where it broke! Cash wasn’t kidding. But what sucked was that, on top of all that, Cash & Dax feel like they let the fans down. Fans boo because that’s the furthest from the truth! But FTR says they hate feeling like that, because all year, the fans have lifted them up!
Cash says the fans made 2022 the best year of their careers, and one of the best years of Cash’s life! And FTR owes the fans eternally for that. Fans chant, “You Deserve It!” in reference to everything great they got to do this year. FTR thanks the fans for that, and Cash says this has been a legacy year for them, and hopes that this is a legacy they can be proud of. But… There are a couple kids with daddy issues trying to get FTR’s attention. Austin & Colten Gunn, this is for you: “You say you’re gonna kill our legacy, but I promise you, if anybody is gonna kill our legacy, it sure as HELL not gonna be a couple of Dumbass Boys!”
Dax says, “Saturday night at Final Battle, I brought my family with me, and uh, after I came to the back, and I was all beaten up and bloodied, I saw my daughter run up to me. And I thought she was gonna say, ‘Daddy, that was a great match,’ or, ‘How’re you doing?’ I was expecting that, and I didn’t hear that. She said, ‘Daddy, those people kinda like you.’ And I said, ‘Yeah, baby, they do kinda like me.’ And she looked at me and she said, ‘Why?’ And I was like, damn… That hurt right in the heart.” But then Dax got to thinking about it, and he wondered, “Yeah, why? Why do y’all like us?” Dax isn’t sure he gets it.
Fans cheer to show they like him, but Dax says he does know this: ever since he was 8 years old, pro-wrestling is all he’s ever wanted to do. And he knows that since he was 8 years old, he’s wanted to make the people feel the love and the passion he has for pro-wrestling. Fans cheer for that! Saturday night, Final Battle, that was FTR’s opportunity to make fans feel a certain way. Win, lose or draw, FTR was gonna make fans feel. And then Austin & Colten ruined that. This Wednesday on Dynamite, FTR will do to them what Daddy Ass should’ve done a long time ago. FTR is gonna tan their hides! Just kidding, they’re gonna whoop some ass! #TopGuysOut!
Jade Cargill speaks.
The UNDEFEATED AEW TBS Champion tells The Baddies that they did just what she said they would. But Leila Grey shows him something. It’s footage of Red Velvet “looking salty.” Why? Is she gonna get with it or get lost? Leila helps Jade fix her hair, and Velvet rolls her eyes behind Jade’s back. Is there cracks in the foundation of this faction? Jade continues on to tell Bow Wow that the next time he wants to interject himself into her business, her lawyer, Mark Sterling will be in contact. Will Bow Wow stop barking up the wrong tree? Or is he going to invoke the wrath of #ThatBitch?
Britt Baker w/ Rebel & Jamie Hayter VS Skye Blue!
The Doctor prepares for her tag team match alongside the AEW Women’s World Champion, but she also looks to settle things with one young and hungry competitor. Will Britt leave Skye feeling gloomy? Or will Skye upset the Face of the AEW Women’s Division?
The bell rings and Britt circles with Skye. They tie up, Britt wrenches an arm to a wristlock but Skye cartwheels to wrench and hammerlock. Britt drops down to roll and drag Skye into a headscissor. Britt pushes up for pressure but Skye shifts around. Britt blocks with a facelock then underhooks the arms for a BUTTERFLY SUPLEX! Cover, ONE! Britt CLUBS Skye for that, then brings Skye up again. Skye blocks the suplex, wrenches out and slips around to then spin and arm-drag Britt away! Britt stands back up, runs in at Skye, but Skye sidesteps and follows. Skye blocks Britt’s hip toss to hit another arm-drag, into a lateral press! TWO!
Skye hurries to SUPERKICK Britt down! Fans fire up with Skye ass he climbs, and Rampage goes picture in picture.
Britt distracts the ref, and Rebel goes up after Skye! Skye kicks Rebel away but Hayter CLUBS Skye! Britt hurries up to ROCK Skye, then she drags Skye out for a DRAPING NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Britt rains down forearms in frustration, then covers, TWO! Britt drag Skye up, DECKS her, then grins as she stalks Skye to ropes. Britt drags Skye up to whip into a corner, then she distracts the ref again so Hayter and Rebel can CHOKE Skye! Britt then storms up to choke Skye herself! Britt stomps Skye, drags her up, and she brings Skye around to BUTTERFLY SUPLEX again! Cover, TWO!
Britt is frustrated with Skye more, and she clamps on for a chinlock. Britt throws down elbow after elbow, then pushes Skye to a cover. TWO, and Britt argues the count. The ref says the count was fair, so Britt stands Skye up to ROCK her with a forearm. Britt whips and LARIATS Skye down! Britt pushes Skye around, drags her up again, but Skye throws body shots! Skye ROCKS Britt, but Britt throws her down by her hair! The ref reprimands Britt but Britt just dusts off her hands. Britt kicks Skye around, just toying with her, and Rampage goes to break.
Rampage returns and Britt ripcords Skye, but Skye ducks the discus! SUPERKICK! Britt falls, Skye covers, TWO! Skye grits her teeth while Britt checks hers. Skye drags Britt up, but Britt shoves Skye away. Britt redirects, then SLINGBLADES! Skye staggers up, Britt spins her around, BUTTERFLY SLAM! Cover, TWO! Skye survives but Britt gets the glove from Rebel! Fans are torn as Britt holds up her hand. But she turns around into a SHINING WIZARD! Skye cradles Britt, TWO!! Skye SUPER- NO, Britt blocks and spins Skye, but Skye BASEMENT ENZIGURIS! Britt wobbles, Skye runs and hops on, CODE- NO, Britt shrugs Skye off! SUPERKICK!
Britt snarls, runs, CURB STOMP!! Cover, Britt wins!
Winner: Britt Baker, by pinfall
Skye tried but she could not bring down The Doctor! But Britt isn’t done, she clamps on to Skye with the LOCKJAW!! She makes the upstart suffer, but wait! Here comes SHIDA! The Full Metal Warrior storms right up, she KENDO STICK SMACKS Rebel! She slides into the ring, Britt dodges once but the stick comes back around, SMACK! Now it’s just Shida and Hayter! Hayter holds up her belt but Shida says it’ll soon be hers! Hayter backs down, but will the Holiday Bash be ruined when Shida takes the title?
Jim Ross has a sit-down interview with Preston Vance.
Good ol’ JR says there’s a lot of “sensitive ground” to cover here. The former Number 10 turned his back on his “family,” as it were, in The Dark Order. How does he justify this? Vance will answer that by asking JR a question: “Who’s your boss in AEW?” Well, Tony Khan, of course. Then it’s not some ten year old kid? No. Cool, because now, neither is Vance’s. Everyone thinks Vance is the bad guy for turning on his “family,” but they’re not his brothers. He was hand-picked by the late Mr. Brodie Lee. None of those other guys were! He was a college athlete, none of those guys are on the same level as him!
Vance’s real brothers in AEW are Rush, Jose, and the rest of La Faccion Ingobernable. They all see the same potential that Mr. Brodie Lee saw in him. Then what about Brodie Lee Jr, aka Negative One? He lost his father, and Vance has only compounded his grieving by doing this. Vance says this is one thing they can agree one: no kid should ever have to go through that. What that kid went through the last couple years, no one should ever feel that. But over the span of these two years, Negative One “has turned into a snot-nosed, spoiled brat. It is what it is. If I have one message to give to Little Brodie, it’s hey kid, time to grow up.”
Number 10 no more, Vance leaves the interview at that. But are things truly over between him and the Dark Order?
Wardlow VS Exodus Prime!
He may no longer be AEW TNT Champion after Samoa Joe’s betrayal, but this is still Wardlow’s World! Will the Maestro of Mayhem be inspired to write new movements in the Powerbomb Symphony until he gets his 1v1 rematch with Joe?
The bell rings and Wardlow circles with Prime. Fans rally for “WARD~LOW! WARD~LOW!” while Prime kisses his own biceps. Prime and Wardlow tie up, Prime gets around and UPPERCUTS! And forearms! And uppercuts again! Then he HEADBUTTS! But Wardlow stays standing, and just snarls while Prime talks himself up. Prime turns around to see Wardlow glaring at him, and then Wardlow HEADBUTTS! Wardlow winds up and LARIATS Prime inside-out! Fans fire up and Wardlow brings Prime up! Wardlow reels Prime in, for the POWERBOMB! Fans fire up and want the encore!
Wardlow conducts the chorus of “ONE MORE TIME! ONE MORE TIME!” and then he drags Prime back up! SECOND POWERBOMB! Prime tumbles and Wardlow is feeling it! The fans fire up as Wardlow gets Prime up again, THIRD POWERBOMB, then the roll through to the FOURTH POWERBOMB!! Cover, Wardlow wins!
Winner: Wardlow, by pinfall
Wardlow wins but he wants to talk! “JOE! You said I can wait my turn! I say I’ve waited too! Damn! Long!! And I’m not waiting another second! Bring your ass out here so I can whoop it all over Dallas!” But Joe is on the tron, both AEW TNT and ROH TV Championships on his shoulder. Joe mocks the “WARD~LOW!” chant, then says, “Who are you to dictate anything to the King of Television? But despite your insolence, you need to understand that I set the conditions. So I offer you the King’s Terms. I will NOT defend my championship against you here tonight, I will not defend my championship next week in San Antonio.
“As a matter of fact, I hope I never defend a championship in this godawful state ever again!” Fans boo, you don’t mess with Texas! But Joe says he will be a gracious king and grant Wardlow clemency. In fact, he hopes Wardlow has the merriest of Christmases. Then on December 28th, in Colorado, he will give Wardlow everything he wants! “And despite how much you’ve lied to yourself, huh, Wardlow, you will be found wanting. The King has spoken.” Wardlow smirks as Joe at least gives him that opportunity he wants. What will happen when these two titans collide for New Year’s Smash?
Mark Henry interviews tonight’s main eventers.
The World’s Strongest Man says Trent Seven joined forces with Kip Sabian in stomping down Orange Cassidy. Why? Seven says the real question is, “How lucky are we all that there are direct flights straight from Moustache Mountain all the way here to Dallas?” And as far as last week goes- Kip has Seven stop there. Kip says after a rocky start, Seven here saw sense! “He embraced the change.” It was once said, “You cannot climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets.” And Cassidy, well, he proved that saying wrong. But those same hands were given opportunity after opportunity, and that doesn’t sit well with Kip’s crew.
Butcher says he has been “waiting all week for someone to dial 1-800-See-Ya.” Butcher wonders why “Best Crumbs” haven’t called. Butcher is sick of talking, he wants to fight, cuz he doesn’t like any of them! And Blade says, “Newsflash, slick! You know what we’re gonna do? We’re gonna slice, we’re gonna dice, we’re gonna split ya open, we’re gonna watch you spill your guts!” Even Seven winces. Mark says it looks like there’s been enough talk. But Dustin says hold on, their side didn’t get to say anything. Chuck Taylor puts out “See Ya” isn’t enough for a real phone number. Trent Beretta says those are letters anyway.
Dustin says now they’re done. Then it’s time for the main event! Will the #NaturalBestFriends get back at the #SuperBadSuperSquad for the extracurriculars next week? Or will Kip, the mercenaries and the Man from Moustache Mountain make minced meat out of all of them?
8 Man Tag: Dustin Rhodes & Best Friends VS Kip Sabian, Trent Seven, The Butcher & The Blade!
The teams sort out and Trent Beretta starts against Mr. Superbad himself. Trent is calling out Trent! Fans rally up and Kip obliges. Kip walks over and tags in Seven! Fans rally for Trent as Trent and Trent say they’re THE Trent. Seven CHOPS, Beretta forearms! Seven and Beretta forearm back and forth while fans cheer for “TRENT! TRENT! TRENT!” Seven CHOPS again, and CHOPS again, and CHOPS again! Beretta wobbles, but he fires up! Beretta shouts, “I’M TRENT!!” And he CHOPS, ROCKS, repeat!

My Thoughts:
Another great Rampage, with some pretty good set-ups for the following weeks. Moxley VS Sammy was a great opener, and leave it to Moxley to find another way to bleed. Moxley winning makes sense as it adds to the story for Sammy and Garcia. Garcia might question why he’s learning from Sammy when Sammy has been losing, too. Moxley and Hangman brawling was a natural move, too. With the “Hangman isn’t cleared” angle to the story, I have a feeling, and am kind of looking forward to seeing, an “Unsanctioned” Match between them. They can really go all out and it won’t hurt either guy in the rankings since Unsanctioned means it won’t count on the record.
Good promo from Saraya to both hype up Hayter VS Shida and her own match with Britt & Hayter in January. Saraya says there’s a lot of people to choose from, but I still feel like Toni Storm makes the obvious but also right choice given the story. If not Toni, then maybe it’ll be Shida, assuming Britt helps Hayter win or something. Britt VS Skye was a good match but of course Britt has Rebel and Hayter help her here and there. Shida fighting Britt and Rebel off Skye was good stuff, as was the stare down between Shida and Hayter. And good promo from The Baddies. If Velvet isn’t feeling Jade’s inflated ego, I kinda hope she helps Kiera Hogan win the title off Jade. Bow Wow might even be part of that finish, where he distracts the ref and Velvet attacks Jade so Kiera can capitalize.
Good promo from FTR to relate how they felt after Final Battle, and to further call out Austin & Colten before Dynamite’s grudge match. Good win for Wardlow but of course he was going to win. He did a good job calling out Samoa Joe, Joe did a great job responding, and their match for New Year’s Smash will be some awesome stuff. I can’t be sure who wins that, it could go either way. But Joe only just got started as “The King of Television,” so it’d be a shame if that stopped now. And great promo from Vance to relate the motivation of his Heel turn. He’s obviously going to face The Dark Order one member at a time, and that can help bring out Vance’s storytelling chops.
Great pre-main-event promo, but of course it was great because Best Friends are hilarious. It’s probably why they keep getting to do stuff on Rampage. Great 8 Man Tag and I love that they played up the Battle of Trents in a similar way to the Battle of Adams when we got Page VS Cole. Great win for the Faces, and I’d love to see things split off into separate matches, but I still think Dustin and Kip face of 1v1 to name a contender to the All-Atlantic Championship. Honestly, Dustin VS Seven 1v1 would be some awesome stuff, too.

The 300th Episode of Attitude Of Aggression has arrived! Join us as we recap the biggest wrestling related events of the past decade!
At long last, Episode 300 is here! And what an Episode it is. On this very special installment, Dave is joined by PC Tunney, DPP, DJ, and Rob Bonette and what ensues is one of the best, most thorough, insightful, and fun discussions of the past decade of pro wrestling that you will find anywhere. WrestleMania 31, Edge’s return, the birth of AEW, the rise of the Bloodline, the Women’s Revolution, the end of the Vince McMahon era….it is all discussed here as only the Attitude Of Aggression can.

AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.
Darby Allin made the save for Will Ospreay against Claudio Castagnoli, and Ospreay just wanted a second to talk. Ospreay says if Darby didn’t make that save, Ospreay wouldn’t be finishing this tournament. So just a quick one, Ospreay appreciates it and he thanks Darby very much. Darby says he just has this feeling. The same exact feeling that he had when Bryan Danielson got taken out. The same exact feeling he had when Chuck Taylor was taken out. Something is gonna happen again unless they all do something about it, so what is Ospreay willing to do? Darby says they can just find the Death Riders and put an end to this!
Ospreay says easy, now, tiger. But Darby says something is going to happen unless they do something! Ospreay understands, but can’t Darby see Ospreay’s got bigger things going on? He lost at WrestleDream, he lost at Full Gear, that’s back-to-back PPV loses and that does not happen to Ospreay. He has to regain momentum, and that means going through every single person in this tournament, and that includes Darby. Darby says that’s cute. Darby doesn’t care about Ospreay’s personal problems, or anyone else’s, because this is bigger than all of them. This is about AEW. Next year, there might not even be a Continental Classic if they don’t stop this now.
Doesn’t Ospreay see it? The Death Riders will keep chipping away and chipping away at everything that makes AEW what it is. So what is Ospreay doing? What is he doing about it? Ospreay is trying to win this tournament! He needs his momentum back. He can’t just drop everything. Ospreay needs this! So he’ll tell Darby this as a man who respects Darby: Ospreay respects everything Darby’s doing for AEW, but Ospreay needs his momentum. Then maybe afterwards, knock on his door. If Darby needs someone to fight alongside him, Ospreay’s game. See you next week. Ospreay heads out, but will either of them make it to the Holiday Bash?
Here are the current Continental Classic Blue League standings!
Kyle Fletcher: 3-0, 9 points
Kazuchika Okada: 1-1-1, 4 points
Daniel Garcia: 1-1-1, 4 points
Mark Briscoe: 1-2, 3 points
Shelton Benjamin: 1-1, 3 points
The Beast Mortos: 0-2, 0 points
Mark Briscoe speaks.
“Dem Boys in the house tonight, baby! Kyle Fletcher, I’m coming for you! I need this win, mathematically speaking! I’ma show you how we do! I’ma show you that I’m all dog, baby! All dog! ARF ARF RAA!”
Kyle Fletcher speaks.
“Mark Briscoe, I’m sorry, but tonight, you are just another victim for The Protostar. After tonight, it’ll be 12 points Fletch, and I will see you in the semifinals.”
Kazuchika Okada and Beast Mortos speak.
“Beast Mortos.” Mortos ROARS, but Okada says, “No. B*tch Mortos.” The Rainmaker has some strong words for the menacing minotaur, but will Mortos make sure the Continental Champion does NOT make it to Worlds End?
WrestleDynasty International Women’s Cup Qualifier AEW Finals: Jamie Hayter VS Willow Nightingale!
As the New Year approaches, so does that massive weekend in the Tokyo Dome! WrestleDynasty’s International Women’s Cup awaits, but will Hayter Hit Hard enough to punch her ticket to Japan? Or will the Babe with the Power look to add to her international list of accolades?
The bell rings, the two shake hands and the fans cheer the respect shown. The two tie up, Hayter hits a headlock takeover, but Willow has the headscissors. Hayter kips free, Willow hits a takeover but Hayter headscissors. Willow kips free, the two reset and the fans cheer. The two tie up, go around, and then break.

Willow CHOPS in return! Willow puts Hayter in the corner to CHOP and the fans are dueling again! Willow CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS! Hayter CHOPS, CHOPS and CHOPS in return!

Hayter fires hands, then runs, but Willow DUMPS her to the apron! Hayter skins the cat but Willow throws a shot! Hayter ROCKS Willow in return, then drags her out to the apron, for an APRON DDT! Willow flops to the floor, but the lights go out!
Hayter looks around in a bit of a panic, was that Julia Hart teasing something? After all, Hart’s been calling her out lately. Willow uses the distraction to RAM Hayter into the apron! Willow then climbs up, and the fans fire up as Willow runs, CANNONBALL to the floor! The fans fire up with Willow while Collision goes picture in picture.
Willow drags Hayter up, puts her in the ring, but Hayter bails out the side. Willow is annoyed and goes out after her to stand her up. Willow CHOPS Hayter against the apron! But Hayter turns things around and CHOPS Willow against the apron! Willow fires hands, RAMS Hayter into the railing, then RAMS her into the apron! Willow RAMS Hayter back into the railing, and then throws Hayter into the ring. Hayter still bails out the side! Willow is annoyed again but she still goes after Hayter. Willow brings Hayter up and reels her in, but Hayter fights the suplex! Hayter then suplexes Willow to the floor!
Willow writhes but Hayter crawls away to roll into the ring. The ring count is past 5 of 10 but Willow rolls in at 7. Willow drags Hayter up, RAMS her into a corner, then goes up the corner. Willow drags Hayter up to join her, but Hayter fights back! They brawl, Hayter CLUBS away on Willow, then HEADBUTTS her!

Winner: Willow Nightingale, by pinfall (advances to WrestleDynasty)
That was a powerful battle from powerful young women, but it is the former AEW TBS Champion, former CMLL Women’s World Champion, and former inaugural NJPW Strong Women’s Champion who is heading to the Tokyo Dome! She will join ROH’s Athena, CMLL’s Persephone, and a Stardom star yet to be determined, who will bring home that International Women’s Cup, and the title match promise that comes with it?
As for Hayter, the lights go out for real this time! And when they come back up, JULIA HART has Hayter in position! HAMMERLOCK DDT!! Julia Hart strikes when the time is right, but will the Princess of the Black Throne make sure Hayter knows The House Always Wins?
Brody King speaks.
“When I think of the Continental Classic, I think of prestige, I think of respect. Cowards take the easy way out. Ricochet, you are a coward.” Brody is referring to Ricochet exposing a top turnbuckle and then using it against Brody. Brody says, “I have no respect for you.”
Claudio Castagnoli speaks.
“Some of my colleagues, they would be angry that they lost. I’m also not losing sight of the bigger picture. They would trade victory for success. They would rather win 100 matches than win the war.”
Strong words from two of the physically strongest men in this tournament, but to Claudio’s point, the war is not over as the round robin continues on. Will either Brody or Claudio make comebacks before we reach Worlds End?
AEW Continental Classic, Blue League: Kazuchika Okada VS The Beast Mortos!
The Continental Champion had quite the message for his opponent tonight, but the menacing minotaur never has words, only roaring and violence! Will Mortos do plenty of that to bring down the champ? Or will the Rainmaker prove he’s still the greatest tournament wrestler today?
The bell rings and we’re on the clock. The fans rally up as Okada and Mortos circle. They tie up, Mortos powers Okada to ropes, but Okada turns things around. The ref counts, Okada lets off slowly, and he fakes the chop to then pat Mortos on the shoulders. The fans applaud while Okada and Mortos reset.

Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (gains 3 points; Mortos earns 0)
Mortos may be at zero points, but he still made Okada earn his! Okada is standing firm at second right now with 7 points, but can Mark Briscoe make it easier on everyone by bringing down Kyle Fletcher?
Toni Storm VS Shazza McKenzie!
It was quite the shocking return for the former AEW Women’s World Champion last Wednesday night on Dynamite, especially since she was no longer Timeless! Toni got her big in-ring return just last night on Rampage, will she keep that momentum going after tonight’s Collision?

Another win in the comeback tour and Toni grabs a mic. “I never thought that I would get to say this, but Toni Storm is officially All Elite!” Uh, y-yeah? Toni is definitely back, but will she return back to the top of AEW?
AEW shares more footage from after Dynamite.
Reporters caught up with Mariah May to ask her about the return of Toni Storm, and Mariah said she DGAF! What happened to Toni is the same thing that happened to Mina, and it will be the same thing that happens to Thunder Rosa. Every single woman Mariah steps in the ring with has their hopes and dreams, and then they wish they were never born. Mina should just go back to modeling, because her wrestling career as she knows it is over. Mariah didn’t want to do that to Mina, she still loves Mina. But this is just what Mariah does, and will continue to do to any girl that wants to breathe the same air as her. No one can handle the Woman from Hell.
Rosa can go and yell about whatever bat s*it crazy BS she wants, Rosa just needs to name a time and place for Mariah to end her career! As for every other woman in AEW, or any other company, you all have the same dream. But there is only one reality. The Glamour has spoken, but will it fall on deaf ears?
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.
Tony Schiavone is with La Mera Mera and brings up Mariah’s comments. Rosa says time and place? March 16th, 2022, San Antonio, Texas, the time and place Rosa won the AEW Women’s World Championship and knew what she was made of. But it doesn’t matter who you ae when you hold the title! What matters is who you are when you aren’t. And Rosa knows in her heart that she is THE champion, for the people and for all of Women’s Wrestling! And that is something Mariah cannot say! And Mariah is cleaning up a mess with her ex-bestie, Toni Storm, but Rosa has a place reserved for Mariah in Hell!
Speaking of Toni Storm, she walks in and says hello, nice to meet everyone. Oh, sorry, she didn’t mean to interrupt. Hi, she’s Toni Storm, she just wanted to introduce herself. They shake hands and Storm says it is a pleasure to meet Thunder Rosa, as well as the living legend, Tony Schiavone. Okay, sorry, she’ll let you all get back to what you were doing. Rock on! Toni heads out and Rosa lets that… odd interaction go. Rosa tells Mariah that in two weeks, her father will be in the audience to see his daughter fight. And she told him to bring a handful of dirt from the graveyards of Tijuana to remind Rosa where she comes from, and where she’s taking Mariah.
So it will be December 28th, 2024, Worlds End! Rosa VS Mariah for the AEW Women’s World Championship, in a TIJUANA STREET FIGHT!! La Mera Mera has spoken, will she bury Mariah in the gave Mariah has dug for herself?

10 Man Tag: Daniel Garcia, Orange Cassidy, Komander & The Outrunners VS MXM Collection & The Premier Athletes w/ Mark Sterling!
While there are many things going on right now, from the Continental Classic to the war with the Death Riders, these teams are getting into the NBA spirit by having a 5v5 All Star showdown! Will the TNT Champion, Freshly Squeezed, the Commander of the Skies and the Youngest Men Alive build up some momentum for the holidays? Or will they get dunked on by Mansoor, Mason Madden, Tony Nese, Josh Woods & Ariya Daivari?
Well of course “Smart” Mark has to take over the introductions. And he says that the Premier Athletes have decided to “let the losers of St. Louis,” and of course these “model citizens,” join in on the pregame cheer. So when they say “Athletes,” you say “Rule,” nothing else! Hands in, boys. Oh, and they would be honored for MXM to put the tips in. Mansoor & Maxon put on finger protection before joining in. Ohhh…! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!” Sterling never learns. The teams sort out and Garcia starts against the Technical Beast. The bell rings, the fans rally up, and Woods taunts Garcia. They tie up, Woods powers Garcia to ropes, but the ref counts.
Woods lets off but mocks Garcia putting his dukes up. Garcia shoves Woods, the two reset, and the fans rally up. They tie up, Woods slips around then SLAMS Garcia down! Woods waistlocks but Garcia fights off the roll-up. Woods SLAMS Garcia again, and mocks the dance! The fans boo but Garcia brushes that off. Garcia and Woods go again, Garcia waistlocks but Woods switches. Garcia switches, they go to ropes, and Woods bucks the O’Conner. Garcia avoids the knee, rolls Woods up, TWO! Woods hurries to his feet but Garcia trips him to ghost pin! TWO, and now Garcia shows Woods how it’s done!
Woods kicks Garcia low! Woods shouts, “ATHLETES!” St. Louis shouts, “SUCKS!” Woods whips, Garcia ducks ‘n’ dodges and CLOBBERS Woods! The fans fire up but Nese tags in, so Garcia knees Nese low. Garcia bumps Nese off buckles, tags in Cassidy, and the fans fire up as Cassidy stomps away on Nese! Cassidy lets off to bring Nese up, and the fans rally as Cassidy suplexes. Nese blocks, then powers free to throat chop! The fans boo, Nese whips, but Cassidy reaches out to tag Komander! Cassidy then dodges to tilt-o-whirl, but Nese stops the DDT! Nese suplexes, into STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE!
Cassidy holds Nese, Komander runs up, and Komander uses Nese to pommel horse and RANA Daivari! The fans fire up and Komander hurries to go up, up, but Mason distracts him! The ref reprimands, but Nese trips Komander up! Hot tag to Mansoor and then MXM both go after Komander. Mansoor pulls on a leg but Komander’s stuck in a backwards Tree of Woe, so Mansoor gets both legs free. MXM then hauls Komander up, CATWALK LEG DROP! Then they POSE! The fans are torn but Mansoor blows a kiss, and even mocks Garcia’s dance, while Collision goes picture in picture.
Mason joins in on the dance and Garcia wants after them, but the ref keeps him and the team back. MXM kicks Komander around, stomps him, and Mansoor ROCKS Komander to ropes. Tip touch tag to Daivari, and they mug Komander. Daivari spins Komander around to stomp him, then he tip touch tags Mansoor. They double whip Komander to a corner, then Daivari runs in, Komander goes up and over, then ducks under Mansoor, Mansoor LARIATS Daivari in the corner! Mansoor panics, Komander knuckle locks and CHOPS! Komander goes up and up, tightrope walks, then MISSILE DROPKICKS Daivari!
Komander comes back to SUPERKICK Mansoor! Komander staggers up, brings Mansoor around, tag to Turbo Floyd! Komander gets the fans fired up and Turbo climbs. Turbo rains down fists, and the fans count along to nine, flex, and TEN! Turbo tags Truth and Truth climbs up to rain down fists! The fans count again, and we go to nine, wind up, and TEN! Mansoor sputters but Truth tags Garcia. Garcia climbs up, he rains down fists, and he goes to nine, puts up his dukes, and he dances on Mansoor’s face! Garcia’s pick-up team is feeling it, and so is St. Louis, while Collision goes to break.
Collision returns as Komander tags in, but Nese & Daivari run up to mug him and The Outrunner! They toss out Turbo & Truth, then TOSS Komander to the corner! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!” But then Garcia & Cassidy drag Nese & Daivari out of the ring! They brawl, Nese THROWS Garcia into railing while Daivari DECKS Cassidy! Komander is up and he builds speed, but Sterling trips him up! The fans boo but the ref missed that because Mansoor is distracting him! Komander grabs Sterling by the tie and the fans fire up, but Daivari CLOBBERS Sterling! The fans boo more but Daivari puts Komander on the apron.
Nese is on the apron and he suplexes Komander up and in for Woods, who then holds Komander up. Mason runs in, BOOT POWERBOMB COMBO!! Mansoor is up top now, FROG SPLASH!! Woods covers, Team Garcia all breaks it up! The fans fire up but now it’s a brawl! Team Garcia and the #PremierCollection all tumble out, Mason & Mansoor get Cassidy up! Cassidy fights the Centerfold, and Garcia slides in so he can SAIDO Mansoor! Mason HEADBUTTS Garcia! Cassidy tilt-o-whirls to DDT Mason! Cassidy kips up, the fans fire up, and Cassidy DIVES onto Mansoor! Cassidy sends Mansoor to a corner for Garcia to SHOTGUN!
The fans are thunderous as Koamnder is up top! Tightrope walk, for the SPACEMAN SWANTON! And he tags Cassidy on the way! Cassidy throws off the elbow pad, takes aim at Woods, but Sterling gets on the apron! Cassidy ORANGE PUNCHES Sterling!! Then he dodges Woods, ORANGE PUNCH!! Cover, Team Garcia wins!
Winners: Daniel Garcia, Orange Cassidy, Komander & The Outrunners, by pinfall
The team celebrates, that was a Freshly Squeezed victory! But while this was a big win and a lot of fun, it is time to focus on Worlds End. Will Garcia make his way out of the league to head for the Continental Championship? Will Cassidy overcome the Fatal 4 Way odds to finally be THE AEW World Champion?
Don Callis speaks.
“I had a bad night last night. A couple of turncoats who used to be under my employ, ‘Powerhouse’ Hobbs and Mark Davis, did a little switcharoo, a little number on the Don Callis Family. I woke up today with a hole in my heart because of that, but then I got fantastic news. The gods have smiled upon me because I am getting, in two week’s time, at Worlds End, I am getting my revenge on Powerhouse Hobbs. That’s right, a match against the Alpha, Konosuke Takeshita, has been granted. And it’s in two weeks at Worlds End, and I can’t wait.
‘If you thought everything was coming up the Don Callis Family, I’ve got one more thing to be excited about! Kyle Fletcher is getting ready right now to be in the main event tonight! And run the table and mathematically ensure that he goes on to Worlds End and then wins the Continental Championship, when he beats that degenerate, Mark Briscoe tonight on Collision. That is why the Don Callis Family is the true one percenters of professional wrestling. And you’re gonna see it tonight, and you’re gonna see it at Worlds End. And Hobbs, I’m gonna send you right back to the unemployment line.” Callis has made his promises, but will Konosuke and Kyle be able to keep them?
AEW Continental Classic, Blue League: Kyle Fletcher VS Mark Briscoe!
The Protostar is already 3-0 with 9 points, the standalone leader of this block. But will he solidify that position as Blue League’s number one seed? Or will the Aussie Arrow completely miss hitting the Sussex County Chicken?
The bell rings and the fans rally behind “DEM BOYS! DEM BOYS!” Mark and Kyle circle, and Kyle doesn’t care that the fans like Mark more. They tie up, Kyle uses height to power Mark to a corner, and the ref counts. Kyle lets off with a roll back, and he finger guns at Mark. The fans taunt Kyle with, “Ospreay’s Better!” Kyle scowls and he bails out of the ring. The fans boo but Kyle says HE is better than Ospreay! Kyle goes back to the ring, stares Mark down as he steps inside, and the two reset. The fans rally behind Mark as the two tie up, and Mark waistlocks. Kyle wrenches and wristlocks, then he pushes on the hold.
Mark rolls, wrenches, headlocks, and he grinds Kyle down. Kyle powers up and out and he RUNS Mark over! Kyle flexes but the fans boo. Mark stands up, the two reset, and they tie up again. Kyle headlocks but Mark endures the grind. Mark powers up and puts Kyle on the ropes. The ref counts, Mark lets off, and Mark eggs Kyle on. Kyle mocks the Redneck Kung-Fu as he resets with Mark.

Mark YANKS Kyle down, but Kyle dodges a haymaker! Mark dodges in return, and now Mark goes up! Mark avoids a leg sweep to then BLOCKBUSTER to the floor! The fans fire up for Mark and he goes back up! BANG-BANG, FOLEY ELBOW!
The fans fire up with Mark and he brings Kyle up. Mark CHOPS, then he refreshes the count. Mark stalks Kyle to railing and he CHOPS again! Kyle scrambles into the ring but Mark pursues. Kyle slides out the side, so Mark goes out the side. Mark CHOPS Kyle again, and Kyle goes to the desk! Kyle sputters but Mark brings him around to reel him in! Callis panics but Kyle BACKDROPS free! The fans boo but Mark goes to steps. Kyle hurries to bring Mark to railing, RAILING BRAINBUSTER!! Mark flops to the floor and the fans go nuts! Callis says there’s no coming back from that. Kyle then mocks Mark by setting up a chair nearby!
Kyle gets space, then builds speed, and he jumps up using the chair, FLYING CANNONBALL!! Kyle wipes Mark out with his own move, and Kyle poses with fans against their will. Kyle mocks the ref and his orders, then he DUMPS Mark over railing. But Mark rises up to CHOP Kyle! Mark goes up onto the railing, brings Kyle up, and he SUPERPLEXES to the floor! Kyle writhes, the ref checks him and Mark, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Both men are okay to continue so a ring count begins. Mark stirs and rises up, but Kyle is still grimacing in pain. Mark has the fans help him up, and he rolls into the ring. The count is 6 of 10 but Kyle is still down! Callis can’t even go near under Continental Division rules, but Kyle manages to rise at 8! And he leaps in at 9.5! The match continues and Mark storms over. Mark brings Kyle up, DECKS him, then stands him back up. Mark ROCKS Kyle again, Kyle flops against ropes, and Mark stands him back up.

Winner: Mark Briscoe, by pinfall (gains 3 points; Fletcher earns 0)
Literally last minute, and the Sussex County Chicken snatches victory from the jaws of defeat! Callis is very upset by this upset victory, and now Mark has new life in the C2! Cassidy & Willow come out to celebrate with him, could Mark make himself one of the semifinalists going into Worlds End?
The Death Riders have hijacked a camera!
Jon Moxley checks if they’re rolling, and Wheeler Yuta says yeah, it’s rolling. He knows how to work that thing? Yeah. Moxley says FTR are about to get lost on their way home tonight. Oh, here they come. The Death Riders watch as Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood walk through the backstage area. Then Marina Shafir stands in their way. Claudio & Pac snatch FTR with blindfold bags! FTR fights but Moxley helps outnumber the #TopGuys, and they drag FTR out to the parking lot. Yuta keeps the camera on him as he smiles and laughs at the carnage happening just on the other side of the wall. Will the Death Riders personally see to it that there is NO ONE to stand against them?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision here to wrap Winter is Coming Week, and I do appreciate they’re trying to get more and more people into the Death Rider story, as they should. To that end, good promo from Darby and Ospreay to try and get Ospreay to consider his part in all this. I get Ospreay’s side, he just wants to wrestle, win, and become champion again, but considering Claudio is in Gold League with him, he could end up a target, compelling Ospreay to join the fight. And quite the closing moment, with Death Riders going after FTR because they saved Cassidy from their attack. It’ll be quite the AEW Justice League moment when names like Cassidy, FTR, Ospreay and a few others stand against The Death Riders. And I say Justice League because DC Comics is Warner Brothers Discovery, too.
Speaking of the Continental Classic, awesome matches tonight for Blue League. Mortos was of course losing to Okada but he looked great against the champ. Good promo from Callis to hype up both the International Championship match of Konosuke VS Hobbs and tonight’s main event, and what an awesome win for Mark Briscoe. Kyle is leading at 9, but Okada is second at 7 and Mark is third at 6, and things could really get wild in the last round of Blue League competition. I feel like it should still come down to Okada and Kyle because Okada is the champ and should have a chance at defending his belt, and Kyle could potentially face Ospreay again.
Great 10 Man Tag from Garcia, Komander, Cassidy & Outrunners VS Premier Athletes & MXM, but it was clearly all for the fun so that the fans could stay energized during these long tapings. Good squash match win for Kris Statlander, but I feel like Lynn didn’t sell being held up for a 20+ stalling suplex much at all. Equally good squash match win for Toni Storm, and I absolutely LOVE that Toni Storm is pretending this is her first time in AEW. She got reset to her old persona so apparently that came with a memory reset, that is brilliant. Very good promo Mariah, and a very good promo from Rosa, including Toni’s part. A Tijuana Street Fight for the title, and it keeps both women strong no matter who wins.
Great tag match of Top Flight VS Lio & Action, but also a great use of Leila as a distraction in the wrong way. I almost thought she was going to turn and join Lio & Action, but Leila’s done fairly well as a Face now so I feel like she’ll stay a Face. She could easily just give a promo about how Lio & Action didn’t care about her and that’s why she sticks with Dante & Darius. Private Party VS Lio & Action is going to be a great, but I would think Quen & Kassidy win out. And then great International Women’s Cup Qualifier from Willow VS Hayter. Willow was the natural choice given her accolades.
And while it’s great for Julia to return in person, AEW sure fumbled it. The lights went out during the match, aka way too early, and then I don’t think she did a good job choosing elbow gloves. Those things were falling down the whole time, it looked more like she had a big scrunchy wristband. But hey, Hayter VS Hart in a House Rules match for Worlds End would be great for them both, and it’d be quite the way for Hart to get a return win.
My Score: 8.9/10
