AEW TNT Championship: Darby Allin VS Juice Robinson!
The Relentless One continues to be a fighting champion, and he accepted the challenge of the Bullet Club’s Rock Hart Booster! But will Darby get caught California Dreamin’? Or will this be as close as Juice gets to being a star in Hollywood?

The TNT Champion is still relentless! And here comes STIIIING! The Icon is here to celebrate with his young tag partner. They head to Yokohama, Japan next week to be part of WrestleKingdom 17’s second night, NJPW VS NOAH! They team with THE Great Muta in his farewell match, will they send him off in style?
“Powerhouse” Will Hobbs speaks.
“The Good Book says, ‘The phoenix once rose from the ashes.’ Well, I took that phoenix and I broke it’s neck! I took those ashes, just like all my hopes and dreams were taken away from me, and now I’m gonna spread those ashes all over everyone I hurt in AEW.” So it is written in the Book of Hobbs, so it shall be! But who will be the first to fall on the Powerhouse’s path of destruction?
Rampage returns with Renee Paquette on stage.
She says it’s been a great night in LA so far, but now it is time for another incredible moment as we cement a new star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame! Standing at day 114, please welcome the Forever Champs, the People’s Choice, the People’s Voice, and everyone’s favorite AEW World Tag Team Champions, The Acclaimed! LA fires up as Max Caster, Anthony Bowens & “Daddy Ass” Billy Gunn walk out! Caster says, “Yo! Listen! Acclaimed got hot ’til they had to do somethin’. Survived more scandals than Gavin Newsome! So you know there’s no stoppin’ ’em. They used to hide us like Joe Biden hides documents!
“And I don’t front, yo, it was bumpy. But we never once had to sell out for blood money! And now we on the Walk of Fame! Because in Hollywood, everyone loves The Acclaimed!” Bowens takes the mic to say, “LOOOOOS ANGELEEEEES~! The Acclaimed have arrived! SCISSOR ME, DADDY ASS~!” And they do~! The music stops and fans sing “OH~ Scissor Me, Daddy~!” Bowens says they have listened to the fans sing week after week after week, and they love it! And it all leads to tonight here in the Mecca of Entertainment, where Bowens currently resides, the City of Angels, BEAUTIFUL Los Angeles!
And The Acclaimed are in the Mecca of Pro-Wrestling, and that is A! E! W!! LA, Bowens wants to ask a favor as this is an amazing, amazing night. He wants everyone from the front row to the back to the vendors and the doctors to Chris Jericho and Jim Ross and Excalibur! Everyone here in the Kia Forum, throw your fingers up, your scissors and signs, high to the sky! Tonight, the Acclaimed cement their legacy so that all generations will know that EVERYONE! LOVES! THE ACCLAIMED!! The Acclaimed then return to the top of the stage and the cement, to… be interrupted by the Gunn Sons?!
Colten Gunn says “Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa! I mean, my god! You guys had National Scissor Day: trash. You had Daddy Ass’s birthday celebration: garbage. And now you’ve got whatever this is. And on top of that, it’s in this bum ass city!” Fans boo but Austin says, “Aww, did we hurt your feelings? Yeah, yeah. Newsflash: you guys are NOT stars! WE are the stars!” And the only reason The Acclaimed is popular is because they stole Billy away from the Gunns! Billy mocks his own sons, “Boo-hoo-hoo!” But Austin says that if anyone deserves part of the Walk of Fame, it’s the Gunn Sons! Fans call them “ASS~ BOYS~!” instead.
Billy tells The Acclaimed that maybe, they’re right. Yes, sometimes a dad’s gotta do what a dad’s gotta do, wink wink. So he says Austin & Colten can go right ahead. Austin says that’s right! The Gunns raise their hands over the cement, but then the Acclaimed PANTS THEM!! They’re in briefs! And Austin’s might be riding up… They turn around in shock and embarrassment, and then Billy shoves them into the cement! Now they’re feeling em-bare-assed in the cement! Austin & Colten scramble out of the cement, and The Acclaimed will just have to try again another time. Will the Gunns have a hard time getting over this one?
Backstage interview with Mogul Affiliates.
Renee is with Swerve Strickland, Parker Boudreaux, the still anonymous tattooed man, and a few other guests of Swerve’s as she asks just what the objective of this group even is. Swerve stops her there to say he got tired of beating people’s asses the last couple of weeks. So when he came out to LA, he decided to do some Mogul Affiliate things. He’s got a top notch business acumen, so he of course goes to Bad Boy’s Quincy and King Combs, the son of Sean Combs. Swerve lets them tell everyone what’s up.
King says you know they can’t stop, won’t stop. This is a real Bad Boy affair. He’s got his boys here with him, and look, King has love for AEW. If they want the smoke, “y’all know who to holla at.” But not only that. Like Swerve said, in 2023, Mogul Affiliates will be the most violent, gruesome faction you’ve ever seen. So then the havoc they’ve wreaked so far is only the beginning. What more will Swerve and his affiliates do in order to take over AEW?
Eddie Kingston & Ortiz VS The Kings of the Black Throne!
The Mad King and one of his closest friends have been itching for this fight ever since that violent return by Malakai Black and his cohorts. But a seed of dissention was planted, and it seems to be growing. Can Kingston & Ortiz survive this battle? Or will they be torn down by the Dark Father and the Big Bad Monster?
The teams sort out, except Eddie and Ortiz argue about it. Fans cheer for Eddie, but Ortiz fires off on Brody first! Brody shoves him away, Ortiz comes right back, and Brody throws him to a corner.

Eddie spins, but Malakai ducks the Uraken! Malakai spins, but Eddie ducks the Black Mass! Eddie sits cross-legged to mock Malakai! Malakai sits down cross-legged so he can stare Eddie down, and fans fire up! The two talk some trash while Rampage goes picture in picture.
Eddie stands up but Brody runs in to BOOT him back down! Ortiz rushes in but Malakai BOOTS him down! Brody goes out to send Eddie into railing, and CHOP! And CHOP! Malakai is after Ortiz at the ramp, and he throws knees and KICKS against the railing! Brody brings Eddie around, and he whips him into railing, only for Eddie to come back with a LARIAT! Eddie gets in the ring, as does Malakai, and they tie up. Malakai headlocks, throws elbows to fight Eddie’s lift, then runs. Ortiz is there so Malakai DECKS him! Malakai then goes back to Eddie, but Eddie hits an STO! Cover, TWO! Malakai goes to a corner, Eddie runs in, but blocks a boot!
But then Malakai shifts to KNEE Eddie away! And then Malakai sweeps the legs! Brody runs in, he drops a SENTON! Malakai goes to the apron to ASAI MOONSAULT Ortiz down! Malakai then goes back to Eddie in the ring, stomps him around, but Eddie just snarls at him. Malakai throws more kicks but Eddie eggs him on. Malakai KICKS, but Eddie pokes him in the eye! The ref reprimands but Malakai BOOTS Eddie down! Malakai rains down fists, then drops a knee right on Eddie’s face! Ortiz wants after Malakai but the ref holds him back. Malakai stares at Ortiz, but he drags Eddie back to tag in Brody.
The Kings of the Black Throne double whip Eddie to ropes, then DOUBLE ELBOW him down! Brody drags Eddie up, CHOPS him, and Eddie ends up in the corner. Eddie fires off hands and CHOPS on Malakai and Brody, until Brody CHOPS him down! Eddie is trapped in enemy territory as Rampage goes to break.
Rampage returns as Brody storms around, and fans bark along with him. Brody runs corner to corner for a CANNONBALL! Brody drags Eddie to a cover, but Ortiz breaks it! Ortiz DECKS Malakai, drags Eddie over, but Eddie tells him to back off? Ortiz has no choice, the ref has him go back to his corner, but Ortiz holds out his hand. Ortiz shouts for Eddie to tag him in but Brody snarls as he wants Eddie to stand up. Eddie rises, Brody runs in, for a LARIAT! But Eddie’s right back up! Brody runs in, into an ENZIGURI! Brody wobbles, into a HALF ‘N’ HALF! Fans fire up and both men are down!
Brody and Eddie stir as a standing count climbs. Eddie growls and stands up. Eddie heads over to the corner, but he is still hesitant. But Brody tags Malakai in! Malakai runs in, but Eddie feeds him to a haymaker from Ortiz! And then Eddie reels Malakai in. Malakai fights free, only for Ortiz to hit a step-in DDT! Malakai stagger sup, into a clinch! EXPLODER!

He slides in, but Eddie stands right on the chair! Buddy looks up at Eddie, and Eddie dares him to do something. But then Julia Hart sneaks in. She grabs at Eddie, he turns around with the chair, but she shrieks! Ortiz snatches the chair from Eddie and gets upset with Eddie!!
Eddie tries to get Ortiz to understand what was going on but Ortiz just sees Eddie ready to hit a woman with a chair! Eddie wants Ortiz to just let off, but Malakai storms up. Malakai turns Ortiz around, but he ducks, so the BLACK MASS hits Eddie!! Ortiz knees Malakai but Malakai shoves him away! Cover on Eddie, KINGS OF BLACK THRONE WIN!
Winners: The Kings of the Black Throne, by pinfall
And then Buddy SMOTHERS Ortiz with a sleeper!! Eddie & Ortiz got played like fiddles, but Malakai wants Ortiz to know he did good. Ortiz is furious, but then Buddy throws Ortiz back into the ring. Ortiz grabs the chair, he’s no one’s puppet! But is he at least a pawn in this chess game the House is playing?
Backstage interview with Jade Cargill.
Lexi Nair is with the UNDEFEATED AEW TBS Champion and her last Baddie standing, Leila Grey. Lexi says we saw at Battle of the Belts that there is clearly tension between Jade and Red Velvet. What exactly is going on? Jade pretends not to know who Velvet is and what Lexi is talking about. “You mean somebody that I made? Red Velvet is just jealous that somebody like Leila is bigger, brighter, and better than she could ever be.” Jade tells Lexi that what she should be asking is how she feels about her upcoming 50th win. And Leila says, “Yes, girl! And we’re going to achieve that without Red Velvet.” Jade says Velvet is done, finito, finished. Leila tells Velvet, “You’re out, I’m in.”
Jade says that they’ve got better things to do. They leave, but will #ThatBitch reach 50 wins still undefeated?
Renee is in the ring with Paul Walter Hauser.
Fans cheer for the Golden Globe winning actor, who is showing off said award in the ring. Renee says he won his Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Blackbird, which was incredible. And during this career defining moment, in his acceptance speech, he shined a light on pro-wrestling with “GET THE TABLES!” What have the last few days been like for him? Paul takes the mic to say that he just loves pro-wrestling. It is an honor to be here tonight with the fans, seriously. He is a lifelong fan of acting, he pours his heart and soul into it, just as Renee’s husband, Jon Moxley, does with this sport.
And Paul has to say, as much as he loves film and TV, he loves nothing more than pro-wrestling. Fans like the sound of that! Paul says if given the chance, he always skips past Hartford, Connecticut to go straight to Jacksonville, Florida! Because in AEW, you never know what’s gonna happen. And speaking of, here comes DANHAUSEN! He said he heard a lot of talk about awards just now, and Danhausen won an award. He as the number one merchandise seller in AEW! YES! That’s right, and that’s all thanks to his #fanhausens. But there seems to be a problem. It appears that Danhausen, aka him, was NOT given a physical award. Fans boo, that’s not fair.
Danhausen feels he therefore deserves Paul’s Golden Globe! What? Fans like that, but Paul isn’t so sure. But y’know what? Paul asks the fans: should the new name of this award be the Golden Globehausen? YES! But wait, here comes Team Triple J! Jay Lethal, Jeff Jarrett, Sonjay Dutt & Satnam Singh all head to the ring, and Sonjay has a mic. Paul wants a timeout! He knows this is their show, but this isn’t Memphis! This is Paul’s turf of Los Angeles, California! Fans cheer for Paul stepping up!
Paul continues with, “So before you say ‘Slap ass this,’ and ‘I’m a Hall of Famer,’ and ‘I invented the Figure Four,’ lemme just say this. You look like a woman who would own a Crunch Fitness. You’ve never even played a guitar that you literally bring everywhere. And if I gotta be honest, your guys here, they look like they’re dressed for a homeschool prom.” Sonjay gets in Paul’s face, but Paul DECKS him! But then Satnam grabs Danhausen! And Lethal DECKS Paul! Satnam keeps Danhausen trapped while Lethal & Sonjay stand Paul up! Jarrett has his guitar! Paul Walter Hauser takes a SMASH HIT!!!
Fans are losing their minds, many boo and flip Triple J off, but then Satnam brings Danhausen around. Lethal has the Globehausen! But here come BEST FRIENDS!! Orange Cassidy takes his time, but Trent Beretta & Chuck Taylor rush the ring! Triple J bails out, but the damage has been done! They beat down Paul and stole his Golden Globe, will they earn the award for Worst People in AEW?
BREAKING NEWS on that!
Lethal did earn something: an All-Atlantic Championship match with Orange Cassidy this Wednesday on Dynamite! Lethal and his cronies stole a Golden Globe, will they find a way to steal Cassidy’s title?
Mark Henry speaks.
“Well, it looks like these women are about to get violent. IT’S TIME! For the maaain~ event!” Guess that means we’re way past talking! This has escalated for so long, this is the only way it can end! Will having become sports entertainers not stop the Brazilian Goddess and the Star of the Show from going to the extreme? Or will the Runaway and the Unstoppable Optimism positively pulverize them?
Street Fight: TayJay VS Ruby Soho & Willow Nightingale!
TayJay is too busy doing their secret handshake and flipping off fans to notice Ruby & Willow running up behind them! Willow CRACKS Jay with a hockey stick! And Ruby CLUBS Tay from behind! The bell rings to get this on record as Ruby & Willow bring TayJay around and fire off forearms! Willow BOOTS Jay down and Soho BOOTS Tay! Fans fire up with the camo-clad duo. And to go further into Dudleyville, Soho shoves Willow and shouts, “GET THE TABLES~!” Fans fire up with Willow, and she goes looking. She brings a table out from under the stage, Ruby brings Tay around, but Jay CLUBS Ruby down the ramp!
Jay shoves Ruby further along but Willow goes after Tay. Willow RAMS Tay into railing, Jay RAMS Ruby into the apron! Tay elbows Willow away, Jay holds onto Ruby’s wrist for the HOOK KICK! And then Jay whips Ruby into the POST! The refs want this to get in the ring, Willow puts Tay in to oblige. But Jay SMACKS Ruby off the timekeeper’s table! And the bell! And then again! Willow drags Tay to a corner, and climbs up from the outside! Willow brings Tay up but Jay RAMS Ruby into steel steps! Tay fights Willow, and she HOTSHOTS her off the top rope! Fans rally, but Jay puts a trash can around Ruby! Jay then pushes Ruby over for Tay to DOUBLE STOMP!
Ruby crawls out of the trash can, and she’s badly busted open! Jericho is so proud of TayJay while Rampage goes picture in picture.
Ruby crawls around, Willow and the refs check on her, but Tay sends chair after chair into the ring. Tay tells fans to kiss this, then she goes to fetch Willow. Tay puts her in the ring and Anna sets up chairs. Tay stomps Willow, CLUBS her, then helps Anna with the chairs. They have a chair square, and Tay brings Willow up, only for Willow to fight back! Tay ROCKS Willow! Willow staggers but she hits Tay back. Jay brings Ruby into the ring, makes her take a seat, and then Jay CLUBS her. Tay headlock punches Willow, makes her sit next to Ruby, and then TayJay sit across from them. TayJay wanna go deathmatch slap fight with Ruby & Willow!
TayJay ROCK Ruby & Willow first! So Ruby & Willow ROCK them back! TayJay ROCK Ruby & Willow, but Ruby & Willow ROCK them back again! They go back and forth, Willow kicks and Ruby CHOPS! TayJay fire off, and Jay even digs her fingers into Ruby’s bloody forehead! Tay stands up to SUPERKICK Willow out of her chair! Jay pushes Ruby over, Tay kicks Willow out of the ring.

Tay goes out to CLOBBER Willow! Jay JAMS Willow with the stick, Tay SMACKS Willow with it! TayJay regroup, put the busted can in the ring, and Tay SUPERKICKS Willow down. Tay drags Willow up, puts her in, and Jay drags her over to the can. TayJay spins Willow around, but Willow fights off the Gory Especial! Tay ROCKS Willow, Jay hooks her up, but Willow still fights! Rampage returns to single picture as Tay ROCKS Willow again!
Jay lifts Willow in the Gory Especial, Tay helps out, ASSISTED GORY BOMB onto the crushed trash can!! Jay covers, TWO!!! Willow survives and LA fires up! Ruby is still bleeding all over as Tay stomps her down. Tay looks under the ring, and she brings out barbed wire! She hands that off to Jay and we know what she’s done with that before! She slips her arm inside it, stalks up to Willow, BARBED WIRE QUEENSLAYER!!! Willow endures, RAMS Jay into the corner, and Ruby climbs up! Ruby has her fist wrapped up in a steel chain! She rains down STEEL CHAIN PUNCHES on Jay’s head!!
Fans are thunderous as Jay lets Willow go, but then Tay SMACKS Ruby on the back with a trash can lid! Ruby is stuck up top, and fans chant for “E C DUB!” as Tay drags chairs over. Tay makes a chair pile, she CLUBS Ruby on the back, and then makes sure everything is lined up. Tay climbs up, Jay joins in, but then Willow adds on! TOWER OF DOOM onto the chair pile!!!

Ruby has a crimson mask, Willow and Jay crawl up the ramp. Ruby grabs the timekeeper’s table and brings it over! Fans love where this is going, but speaking of, Willow and Jay brawl at the top of the ramp. Ruby positions her table, but Willow ducks Jay’s hook kick to haul her up! Remember that other table? Willow SIT OUT POWERBOMBS off the ramp and through that table!!! Willow takes more of table than Jay, but Jay takes more of the floor than Willow!!! As for Tay and Ruby, they fight on the apron!

Fans can’t believe how wild these two went! Now they all know what it is to live and die in LA! Ruby gives Tay a bloody kiss goodnight, and then finally fist-bumps Willow! Is this just the beginning of a beautiful and brutal friendship for Ruby & Willow?
My Thoughts:
This was a wild episode for Rampage, and a lot of this is an example of what Rampages should be like, in terms of moving stories along in meaningful ways. We did get a bit of an empty, “Wait and see what we do next” promo from Mogul Affiliates, but that might be because AEW doesn’t know what is next. First, it’d be giving the tattooed guy his AEW name. Second, why not move them up into Trios title contention? Swerve beat AR Fox, the Bucks are facing Top Flight next, Top Flight & Fox are a trio, so there’s some kinda math in there that says Mogul Affiliates should rank above Top Flight & Fox. Granted, Parker Boudreaux is still rough around the edges and as he has no name, tattooed man hasn’t done anything in AEW so they might need to get going on Elevation and Dark to get some wins.
Very good promo from Hobbs, and after seeing that great opener from Darby VS Juice, doesn’t it just make sense for Hobbs to go after Darby and the TNT title? While he mentioned a phoenix, Hobbs isn’t going after Rey Fenix, he could use that to mean Darby, who seems like he can’t die. Hobbs has been doing great stuff for a good stretch, he deserves to be the guy to dethrone Darby, likely at Revolution. He can rack up wins on Elevation and Dark, biding his time as the weeks go by, and then he steps up to Darby just in time to make that match official. As for Darby, great to hear that he and Sting are going to Japan for WK17 Yokohama, that’ll be a great match and moment as Keiji Mutoh, AKA The Great Muta, officially retires.
Obviously someone interrupts The Acclaimed getting their Walk of Fame stars since that was all kayfabe anyway. I just feel like the Gunns shouldn’t be the ones. It does bring things full circle from their previous feud in a way, and the only thing everyone loves more than The Acclaimed is laughing at the Ass Boys. With FTR taking a leave of absence to legitimately rest and regroup, this is kind of like getting the next chapter of the Gunns’ run without the build, hence why they will lose the tag title match. And good promo from Jade and Leila to talk smack on Velvet and make it pretty clear to me that Velvet will be Jade’s opponent for that 50th match.
We got great action and incredible storytelling in the Kings of the Black Throne tag match. Eddie and Ortiz were dysfunctional the whole time but in a way that worked, and the House of Black basically suckered them both into their ploy. Now the distrust will grow, and there’s a chance someone turns, but there could also be a heroic moment of Eddie and Ortiz overcoming the mind games and winning out in the end. We got a really good promo segment out of Paul Walter Hauser, Best Friends and Triple J. Kudos on PWH taking that guitar smash, he’s definitely a hardcore pro-wrestling fan if he’s willing to do that. And while we’re getting Cassidy VS Lethal for the All-Atlantic title, I would love if we got an 8 Man Tag so that we can get Sonjay, Satnam and Danhausen legitimately involved.
And I love that they didn’t worry about a main event promo, they just gave us the Street Fight. All of that was badass stuff from start to finish, but wow did Ruby get bloody. Great references, from the purple ‘n’ white camo Ruby & Willow had to shout out the Dudley Boyz to TayJay bringing back the barbed wire arm wrap. For a moment I thought TayJay would win, but that’s a great moment for Ruby and Willow to win and bond over this war. This has to be the blow-off, there’s nothing they can do to escalate from here. I’m just not sure what either team can do next when there are no AEW Women’s Tag Team Championships to fight for.
My Score: 8.9/10

Backstage interview with Wheeler Yuta.
Lexy Nair catches The Decoder as he enters the building now, and she knows this goes without being said, but… We all witnessed the horrific events of All Out and what happened to Bryan Danielson. How is Bryan? Yuta says Bryan… Out of respect for him and his family, Yuta won’t share too much. But Bryan is doing the best he can, given the circumstances. Yuta realizes he forgot his boots, spaces out a bit, but starts again. He hasn’t really talked with any of the other guys… And what about Yuta’s match tonight? Yuta says Anthony Henry is one incredibly talented, incredibly tough competitor.
But one thing Bryan told Yuta, the reason Bryan loves professional wrestling is because in the ring, he feels he’s meant to be there and everything else can be put on pause. So Yuta will try and channel that tonight. Yuta heads on to the locker room, will he be able to clear his mind once he’s in the ring?
Six Man Tag: Mark Briscoe, Kyle O’Reilly & Holo.grm VS The Beast Mortos & The Premier Athletes!
The Conglomeration has had a great week so far, but it could be even bigger given who they’re teaming with tonight! Will the futuristic luchador continue to raise the bar in AEW? Or will he, The Chicken and the Violent Artist all be brought down to earth by Ariya Daivari, Tony Nese and the menacing minotaur?
Oh wait, Mark Sterling of course has to talk. He knows we know who they are, but he’s sure we’re all wondering why they’re teaming with The Beast Mortos. That is because The Conglomeration and Hologram have been thorns in their side for the past two months! They used some of Daivari’s substantial funds to enlist two horns they can stick into The Conglomeration’s side! But to make sure everyone is on the same page, they’re going to do a team building exercise that even the idiots here in Ohio can understand! When Sterling says, “Athletes!” you say, “Rule!” Nothing else, got it? Hands in… “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!”
The teams sort out, and Kyle steps up against Nese. They circle, the fans fire up, and the two tie up. Kyle waistlocks, Nese drop toeholds, and he floats to a facelock.

Nese fires body shots against the ropes, then lets off as the ref counts. Mortos tags in and he ROCKS Kyle! Kyle goes to a corner, Mortos whips corner to corner, but Kyle dodges! Mortos hits buckles, but he still BOOTS back! And SLING-DOGS! And SNAP POWERSLAMS! Cover, Mark breaks it! The ref reprimands and Mortos seethes, but he goes back for Kyle. Mortos drags Kyle up, brings him over, tag to Daivari, and they mug Kyle. Daivari turns Kyle to NECKBREAKER! Daivari covers, TWO!

AEW shares footage from CMLL 91st Anniversario!
If you’re wondering where Orange Cassidy is, he was just down in Mexico to join in on CMLL’s big anniversary show. Freshly Squeezed was part of Team Internacional alongside Rocky Romero & Satoshi Kojima, losing out in a Best 2 Out of 3 Falls Six Man Tag against Team Mexico’s Atlantis Jr, Volador Jr. & Ultimo Guerrero. However, Cassidy’s night was not done. In the main event, Chris Jericho lost to Mistico and then became a sore loser, beating up Mistico with the help of “Big Bill” Morrissey! Cassidy made the save, he and Mistico ran off The Learning Tree, and stood tall as amigos.
Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.
Renee Paquette says Freshly Squeezed made his CMLL debut in front of a sold out Arena Mexico. How did it- OH NO! Bill BOOTS Cassidy, sending his sunglasses flying! Bill then THROWS Cassidy into the garage door! Bryan Keith puts the backpack over Cassidy’s head, and here comes Jericho. Jericho has the framed picture of The Best Friends, and says, “Here’s to friendship, Orange.” He SMASHES the picture on Cassidy’s head!! “You can have your knapsack back. See you Wednesday.” Renee steps back in to say they need help back here! She tells Jericho to leave, Jericho says, “Thanks, Renee.” Did Jericho just get his real payback for the jacket and Bentley?
Stokely Hathaway is in his private study.
And what he’s studying is game film of various top tag teams in some of their best matches here in AEW. But what could Stokely be formulating for the future?
Backstage interview with Mariah May.
Lexy Nair is with The Glamour, and says she has been AEW Women’s World Champion for a few weeks now, but has yet to hold her championship celebration. Yes, she has, and she isn’t doing it now in Dayton, Ohio. It’s just the Wish.com version of Cincinnati. Then in any case, Mariah invited Mina Shirakawa to return, and Mariah says her best times were with Mina. Stardom and Japan, here in AEW, but then somewhere along the way, bad things just happened. Mariah needs Mina. She can’t celebrate her win without Mina. Mariah wants Mina. Oh, sorry, can Mariah help you? We pan over to see Yuka Sakazaki!
Yuka says hi, and Mariah says how cute. Yuka says she wants to fight for the belt. Oh, that’s nice. But Yuka can get in line, and then Mariah will rip her head off! Yuka says okay. Bye-bye~! Yuka leaves, and Mariah is seething already. Will the Wrestling Magical Girl prove she is worthy when she returns to the ring tonight?
Wheeler Yuta VS Anthony Henry w/ BEEF!
We saw how disheveled The Decoder is, even one week after the incident at All Out. But he’ll try his best to do what Bryan would do and use wrestling to clear his head. Will he succeed in shaking off this funk? Or will the Saint of Augusta take advantage of Yuta’s unsettled mindset?

Winner: Wheeler Yuta, by submission
Yuta is so furious, he almost goes after the ref now! But Yuta returns from the fugue state, and he takes his leave. But will Yuta focus this anger on those who deserve it? Or is he going to find himself stuck between both sides of the Blackpool Combat Club?
Backstage interview with Serena Deeb and Queen Aminata.
Lexy Nair notes The Professor has a match tonight against Yuka Sakazaki, and The One True African Woman also has a match tonight against Robyn Renegade. Serena asked for this time with Aminata, the floor is hers. Serena thanks Aminata for her time, it is very kind of her to hear Serena out. Now, Serena wants to continue their discussion from last time. Serena watched Aminata take on Mariah, and it was a great match, Aminata has a lot of potential. But Serena did say that Aminata isn’t ready. However, the offer still stands and Serena is very forgiving. So if Aminata wants to talk more, she knows where to find her.
Aminata tells Serena sorry, but she doesn’t freakin’ have time for this! She has her match to get ready for. Serena tells Queen Aminata to let the Professor show her how it’s done. Serena then turns to camera to address Yuka. The last time Yuka even had thoughts to step into the ring with Serena, her leg broke. Imagine what it’ll be like now that she’s actually taking Serena on tonight. See you later. Serena says that to Aminata as much as she does Yuka. Will there be no mercy in Deeb’s Dojo for the returning Wrestling Magical Girl? Will Deeb’s Dojo be adding a student after tonight? Or will nothing go quite how Serena expects?
Anna Jay speaks.
“I just got back from Japan, wrestling, learning, honing my skills and becoming the best that I can be. It was not easy. I was tired, I was sore, I was beat up. But let me tell you what I learned while I was there. I want more. So much more. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want a shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship. Mariah May is due for a very big receipt. And I’ve also never stepped into the ring with Mercedes Mone. So lemme make it easy for all of you. If you wanna see what an evolved Anna Jay has become, just try me.” The Queenslayer is back, will she become The Star of the Show once and for all?
Six Man Tag: Komander & Private Party w/ Alex Abrahantes VS Jon Cruz, Lord Crewe & Ren Jones!
This trio tried to have their first match together last Wednesday Night Dynamite, but they and their opponents got blindsided and brutalized by the new, more maniacal Blackpool Combat Club. Will they have better luck tonight? Or will being in Moxley’s backyard only put them at risk again?
The trios sort out, Brother Zay starts against Ren, and the two tie up. Ren headlocks, Zay powers up and out, and then he drops down. Zay hurdles, but Ren shoves him.

Winners: Komander & Private Party, by pinfall
Should we start calling them #FiestaPrivada? A good first win now that they got their “SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!” But will they soon get their “SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!” at the BCC’s AEW World Trios Championships?
Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness talk about Bryan Danielson.
Given the change to Grand Slam, where Darby Allin now defends his #1 contender status against Jon Moxley, Nigel is of course calling out The American Dragon for that same night. How can Nigel be sure Bryan will even be able to compete? Nigel can’t be sure, but neither can Tony Khan. But when Moxley convinced Darby to put the title shot on the line, he did it out of pure speculation. That is why Nigel told TK that they can’t know Bryan won’t be able to compete. So Nigel figured, if Bryan can show up, and Darby no longer available to face him, Nigel would like to. Nigel will be there, so the question is, will Bryan?
Nigel now talks to Bryan: If Bryan doesn’t show up, it isn’t because of his condition. It is because he fears Nigel McGuinness. Nigel’s said it before, so he’ll just show us what he means. Footage courtesy of ROH, Nigel and Bryan battled for THE ROH World Championship. Nigel narrates that he and Bryan were bitter rivals on equal standing, clashing for the gold in matches that had the wrestling world abuzz. But there has been no one before or since that has beaten Bryan Danielson so convincingly, so brutally, and so thoroughly!
No matter how much success Bryan has had in his career after ROH, even winning the AEW World Championship, Bryan is STILL haunted by the memories of facing Nigel. Even more now 16 YEARS later, Nigel being in the best shape of his life, better than Bryan ever was, and Bryan is a physical wreck! Nigel says no worries, Bryan. Win, lose or draw, Bryan will still be world champion. But let’s not make any bones about it: If Bryan shows up, Nigel will look to end Bryan’s career! Ball’s in Bryan’s court. How will The American Dragon respond with 11 days left before Grand Slam?
Yuka Sakazaki VS Serena Deeb!
The Magical Girl called out The Glamour, but The Professor has called out The Magical Girl! Will Yuka pass Serena’s test and head for the AEW Women’s World Championship? Or will Serena earn herself that opportunity instead?
The bell rings but wait! Mariah makes her way out here! It seems Yuka got under her skin, but Mariah’s presence sure has Nigel in good spirits. The fans rally for Yuka as she and Deeb circle. They tie up, and Deeb wrenches an arm. Deeb wristlocks, Mariah says Deeb has taught her much so she wishes her luck. As for Yuka, break a leg. Deeb wrenches while Nigel laughs far too much at the joke. Yuka rolls, kips up, and wrenches to wristlock. Deeb rolls, rolls, and slips around to wrench and wristlock. Deeb wrangles Yuka, ties up the legs, and she has Yuka in Paradise! Deeb sits on Yuka, the fans are torn, but Mariah is amused.
Deeb flexes and Mariah jokes that this is child abuse. Yuka is a child as far as Mariah can tell. Schiavone says Yuka’s a ten year veteran, but Mariah says more like a 10-year-old. Deeb DROPKICKS Yuka out of Paradise! Yuka goes to ropes, Deeb eggs her on, but Yuka frowns. Yuka runs up to KNEE low! Yuka snapmares and rolls with Deeb to KICK her down! Then Yuka body scissors, and she ROLLING ROLLING ROLLING CLUTCH! Cover, TWO!! Deeb escapes, Mariah is annoyed by that already, and Deeb goes to a corner. Yuka runs up, blocks a boot, but Deeb reels Yuka in to KICK her! Yuka staggers, Deeb eggs her on again.
Yuka runs up, but Deeb catches her! Deeb turns Yuka, to HOTSHOT NECKBREAKER! Yuka flops to the apron, Mariah mocks her pain, and Deeb mocks the booing fans while Collision goes picture in picture.

Yuka fights, reaches out, and has the ROPEBREAK! Deeb lets go in frustration, and she storms around. Deeb stalks Yuka, drags her up, and TWIST ‘N’ SHOUTS! Cover, TWO!! Yuka survives but Deeb keeps her focus. Deeb stomps Yuka, then drags her around to step on her face! Yuka writhes, the ref reprimands, but Deeb just smirks. Deeb drags Yuka by a leg, and drops an elbow on the knee! And another elbow! And then a GROUND DRAGON SCREW! Cover, TWO!!
Yuka is toughing it out and that just upsets Deeb more. Deeb grabs the leg again, but Yuka fights the Half Crab by grabbing Deeb’s leg! Yuka then kicks, and kicks, and kicks Deeb away! Deeb runs back up, blocks a kick, but Yuka ENZIGIRIS! Yuka hobbles to a corner, sits down to rest the bad leg, but she watches Deeb crawl. Deeb rises up, runs in at Yuka, but blocks another boot! Collision returns to single picture as Yuka goes up, reels Deeb in, HANGING HEADSCISSORS! The fans fire up, the ref counts, and Mariah says that’s against the rules!

Yuka boxing elbows, then ROLLING- NO, Deeb ducks to wrench! Deeb drags Yuka down, around, reels her in, POWERBOMB! STRETCH MUFFLER!! Yuka endures, fights, and Mariah mockingly says Yuka might have to tap. The fans rally up, Yuka roars and crawls forward! ROPEBREAK! Deeb thrashes the leg, but she lets go at the ref’s count. Deeb drags Yuka back up, UPPERCUTS, but then Yuka ROCKS Deeb!
Deeb UPPERCUTS! Yuka ROCKS Deeb! UPPERCUT! Yuka wobbles, but she comes back to ROCK Deeb! Yuka fires shot after shot, then runs up, but Deeb ducks! DOUBLE LARIATS collide! And again! Deeb gets around to GERMAN SUPLEX! Even Mariah thought that one hurt. But Yuka ROCKS Deeb! Deeb LARIATS Yuka! Deeb drags Yuka up, tucks her in, but Yuka powers out! Scoop and MAGICAL GIRL DRIVER! Yuka drags Deeb into the drop zone, goes to the apron, and the fans fire up! Yuka climbs up the ropes, for the MAGICAL GIRL SPLASH!! Cover, Yuka wins!
Winner: Yuka Sakazaki, by pinfall
It was a hard fought match, but Yuka found the will to win! Mariah is not happy about it, but will she be even angrier when Yuka proves she’s a contender? WAIT, Mariah CLOBBERS Yuka on the stage!! The fans boo and Yuka sits up in a daze, having no idea what just hit her! Mariah reels Yuka in, but Yuka fights the lift! Yuka powers out to SUPERKICK! Mariah goes down in a heap! Yuka then picks up the title belt! The fans cheer, but will this be the scene that plays out in the very near future?
The Outrunners speak.
In another retro video, Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd are getting their pump on in the gym! They say what they want, when they want! How old do they have to be to have a gym membership? 18 years old. Well lucky for this guy, he’s lookin’ at the Youngest Men Alive! Now scram! They tell the tag division that they’re coming for your pride, your manhood, and your gold! Because if you haven’t seen The Outrunners, you ain’t seen nothing yet! These human throwbacks are ready for action, but what will it take for them to take down the best in AEW?
Top Flight Airlines talks backstage.
Leila Grey is so full, they just had a great dinner. But then Action Andretti speaks up. Why’re they going on about the food they just ate? Are they not pissed off like he’s pissed off? Look what they did just this week. Darius & Dante lost out on a chance to become AEW World Tag Team Champions. Lio Rush lost out on the TNT Championship. Action just lost on Rampage! He’s still hot! Lio asks why he’s still on it then. Chill out, it’s just a loss. No, man, it’s not “just” a loss! Look at them! They have so much potential together! They have something that very few have! This is Leila Grey, Top Flight, Lio Rush and Action Andretti, and all they’re talking about is food?!
Action snatches Dante’s burger and CHUCKS it at the production truck! Lio says calm down, Action! But Action looks at the truck and says look! Why aren’t they treated more like The House of Black? Does Top Flight not have wins over The House of Black? Why aren’t they going up against more teams like them and getting more wins? Lio says Action is just talking out his ass, and Leila says yeah, Action needs to calm down. The team needs to get it together, or they’re going nowhere. Action says yeah, they do. Action leaves, but where to? The others follow him, will The Sight to See make the others see his point of view?
Six Man Tag: The Bang Bang Gang VS The Cage of Agony!

The trios sort out and Juice starts against Liona. The bell rings, the fans rally for “JUICE! JUICE!” Juice and Liona tie up, Liona powers Juice to a corner, then gets in Juice’s face.

Liona runs up, into a kick and- NO, Liona is too big for a suplex! Liona tires, Colten fights it! But then Cage and Kaun storm up, only for the ref to stop them! Liona suplexes, but Colten cradle counter! The ref is missing the cover!! The fans count, Bang Bang Gang would’ve won!

The House of Black speaks.
Buddy Matthews chuckles and says, “Boys. It seems like everyone wants a piece of the House of Black.” Malakai Black says, “The seven of you (Lance Archer, The Righteous and all of Top Flight Airlines) want to challenge the three of us. I’d say that your odds are about, oh, I’d say 50-50.” Brody King sees it as 80-20. But Buddy says come one, come all! The House of Black slips into the shadows, will they just tear down anyone and everyone that knocks on their door?

Throwbacks love throwbacks, but will these four make sure GYV don’t make it to the top of the mountain?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision here, with lots of great story build. I even like this literal “Show up, win, leave” attitude Jack Perry is using. He and Daniels have a solid opening match, some real rough bumps taken but both guys were okay, and of course Jack won. But one of these times, someone has to either hijack the bus or surprise Jack from inside the bus. I mean, he just leaves it right there in the parking lot. Really good stuff with Yuta, too, though he kind of awkwardly played being distracted and disheveled. But in the match, he got it right as Henry insulted him and Bryan and then just went berserk. And good promo from Nigel to further call out Bryan, so you know Bryan’s gonna show up.
Great Six Man Tag from Conglomeration with Hologram against Mortos & Premier Athletes. I figured the Faces would win to keep Hologram going strong, but Mortos seems to just be going after anyone and everyone he wants. Ricochet from Dynamite, Hologram here, we’re going to get some great matches out of all of them as Ricochet builds up towards facing Ospreay for the International Championship. And we also got a very good showing from the new trio of Komander & Private Party, the alley-oop into the Gin & Juice is genius, and I feel like we’re definitely getting a Six Man Tag match, Fiesta Privada VS Moxley, Claudio & Pac. Non-title, but could be used as a plot point to compel a title match, and then Yuta has to decide whose side he is on.
Great Six Man Tag from Bang Bang Gang with Cage of Agony, and great win for Bang Bang Gang, they’ll be staying afloat as we wait on this World Trios Championship story to sort out. Very good promo segment from Top Flight Airlines, and while both sides of the argument are valid, I am leaning towards Action’s side. The whole faction could be doing so much more, they just need the opportunities. Though, calling out The House of Black might be a mistake. Good promo from The House of Black in response, calling out Top Flight and The Righteous, that sounds like a very good Trios Triple Threat in the making right there.
Very good stuff in the build of a new Women’s World Championship story here. Aminata and Deeb of course have their own issues brewing, but good revisit of Yuka and Deeb, which was the intended feud months ago before Yuka got hurt. Granted, there were parts of the match between Yuka and Deeb that were a bit rough, maybe it was a lot for Yuka’s return. But great win for Yuka, and then great stuff with her and Mariah, and that tag match made for Dynamite is going to be a lot of fun.
Very intriguing vignette from Stokely Hathaway. While he is still managing Statlander, he might be looking to expand into a full faction, which would be what the tag match videos are about. Good video showing Cassidy and Jericho in action at CMLL’s anniversary show, but Tony Schiavone misspoke, all the AEW guys lost that night. But then good follow-up of continuity both there in CMLL and here tonight with Jericho’s team beating Cassidy down. This adds some last minute heat to the Dynamite match, but I am very sure this all means Cassidy finds a way to win.
And awesome tag match main event from FTR VS GYV, and great win for FTR. I should’ve figured GYV would be sore losers about it, but I did not think The Outrunners would make the save. They are rapidly growing in popularity, even if it’s more for their hilarious gimmick. But between making amends with Infantry on ROH and coming out to help FTR, Outrunners look to be in a lot of 8 Man Tags in the near future. If things go right, they might even be tag team champions before the year is over. But probably ROH tag titles more than AEW tag titles.

Backstage interview with Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara and The Undisputed Kingdom.
Lexy Nair says Matt Taven & Mike Bennett asked for this time in order to talk with the ROH World Tag Team Champions in The Natural & The Spanish God. The floor is theirs. Bennett says hi, it’s so nice to see them somewhere not in Texas. Sammy says yeah, that’s true. Because the last time they all saw each other, it was All In, Wembley Stadium, and Team Texas beat The Kingdom’s ass. Oh, is that so? Because Taven remembers there being interference. Bennett remembers Kevin Von Erich constantly sticking his nose into their matches. Heck, ALL of Texas has been interfering in their matches! He’s surprised the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders didn’t show up!
Dustin says that would be kinda nice, actually. Taven says he’s just stick of seeing the two of them with those titles. Sammy is looking like Jim Carrey in The Mask. What was his name again? Bennett says it was Stanley Ipkiss. Yeah, Ipkiss! And then Dustin! Taven finally understands why Dustin paints his face. Taven would be ashamed, too, if he was acting like this. Dustin & Sammy have no honor! Actually, they should do this the one way they all know how! A Fight Without Honor! Because having no honor is the only tradition the Rhodes Family has- Dustin SLAPS Taven for that! Sammy holds Dustin back while Bennett helps Taven stand.
Sammy reminds them that this is DUSTIN RHODES, a living legend! Put respect on his name, because he’s earned it, unlike The Kingdom. Dustin tells Taven to never mention his family again, “you tick turd SOB!” For 36 LONG HARD YEARS, Dustin has done nothing but be honorable! He has been ripping, tearing, clawing his way through this sport, falling down 1000 times and failing his ass off, but then getting right back up and on the horse. Does Taven understand!? If Taven wants his shot at these titles, it’ll be in his home town of Springfield, Massachusetts next Saturday! And it won’t just be any match, it’ll be a BUNKHOUSE BRAWL!
Dustin is the King of the Bunkhouse! And if The Kingdom has any balls, then they’ll show up, and Dustin will rip their freakin’ eyeballs out!! The Kingdom gets their title match, but will getting the titles back cost them something in return?
Kamille VS Robyn Renegade!
Mercedes Mone’s Brickhouse has been a big help, but it is time for her to get hers. Will she start building a solid standing of her own? Or will she fail to stop this Renegade?

The Brickhouse just dropped “The Truth” on Robyn, and The Truth hurts! But will everyone in the Women’s Division have to face The Truth that Kamille is the new alpha around here?
Christopher Daniels speaks.
“It’s no secret that I’ve had my problems with The Elite this past year. And ever since I became Interim EVP, I’ve done my best to offset The Elite abusing their power here in AEW. But I haven’t forgotten that I’m still a professional wrestler at heart. And now, Jack Perry has this Open Challenge for the TNT Championship. And I would never ask anybody in this locker room to fight a battle that I wasn’t prepared to fight myself. So let me put it to you plainly, Jack Perry. How about tomorrow night, you VS me for the TNT Championship? And lemme give you a little advice: You better pack a lunch, cuz I’m coming to kick your ass.”
The Fallen Angel is rising to the challenge! Will he turn The Scapegoat into the sacrifice he so badly wants to be? Or will Jack Perry still be the Face of TNT?
Roderick Strong w/ The Kingdom VS BEEF w/ Anthony Henry!
The Savior of the Backbreaker has called Hook out over the FTW Championship, and Hook responded just the other night on Dynamite. That battle is coming, and Roddy is even talking trash on the way to the ring that he’ll be making an example of his opponent tonight. Will Roddy use Anthony Henry’s second-cousin-in-law to send a message to the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil?
Beef offers a handshake, Roddy refuses, and Beef remembers this is Rampage, not ROH. The bell rings and Beef circles with Roddy. They tie up, Roddy wrenches and wristlocks. Roddy slaps Beef around, lets off, and he soaks up heat in the corner. Henry coaches Beef, Beef and Roddy reset and circle. They tie up, Roddy waistlocks then headlocks. Beef powers up and out, then he runs Roddy over! The fans fire up for Beef, but Roddy kicks the leg! Roddy CHOPS and ROCKS Beef, then ROCKS him again. Beef ROCKS Roddy in return! And again, and again, and again! The fans fire up, and Beef whips, only for Roddy to reverse!
Beef cartwheels past Roddy to DROPKICK! The fans fire up with Beef, and he hopes Henry saw that. Roddy KNEES Beef low! Roddy fires forearms while Rampage goes picture in picture.
Roddy reels Beef in, but then Beef suplexes first! Roddy slips free, CLUBS Beef, then runs, into a HIP ATTACK! Beef says kiss this while Roddy tumbles out of the ring! The Kingdom check son Roddy, but Beef steps to the apron. Henry tells The Kingdom to back off, but Roddy gets up to ENZIGIRI Beef! And then APRON BACK SUPLEX! That’s a lot of Beef hitting the edge, and The Kingdom is all fired up! Henry tells them to back off, and he checks his second cousin by marriage. Roddy pushes Beef in, stomps him around, then CLUBS him. Beef staggers, Roddy CHOPS him! Beef staggers along the ropes, but Roddy CHOPS him again!
Roddy ROCKS Beef in a corner, Beef gets his guard up but Roddy pie faces him. Beef pushes Roddy, then fires haymakers! Beef kicks low, but Roddy drop toeholds to drop an elbow! Beef writhes, sits up, and Roddy CHOPS him! Roddy clamps onto a chinlock and he squeezes tight! Beef endures, fights up, and he JAWBREAKERS free! Roddy staggers back, returns, but Beef NORTHERN LIGHTS! Bridging cover, TWO! Roddy ROCKS Beef and Beef falls hard into a corner! The Kingdom cheers, Beef shakes out the stars, and Rampage goes to break.
Rampage returns and Roddy drags himself up with ropes on one end, Beef on the other. The fans rally up, Roddy storms up, but Beef ROCKS him first! And JABS! JABS! JABS! Beef keeps throwing hands, then winds up, to HAYMAKER! The fans fire up with Beef and he brings Roddy around. Underhook for the BUTTERFLY SUPLEX! Roddy goes to a corner, Beef pumps up and runs in, LARIAT in the corner! Beef whips corner to corner, then LARIATS! Beef keeps moving, BULLDOG! Cover, TWO! Roddy stays in this but the fans stay fired up for “BEEF! BEEF! BEEF!” Beef waits, CHOPS, and JABS!
Roddy goes to a corner, Beef CHOPS again! And ROCKS him again! Beef whips corner to corner, Roddy reverses, but Beef goes up and out! Beef hurries, blows through the lariat, but not the GAMANGIRI! Beef is stuck up top, Roddy goes up after him! Roddy brings Beef to the very tup, SUPER DUPER PLEX! Cover, TWO!! Beef survives and Lexington loves it! The Kingdom, however, does not. Roddy drags Beef up, reels him in, and fireman’s carries. Beef slips free, waistlocks, but Roddy bucks the O’Conner. Beef returns to SPLASH against ropes! The fans fire up, Henry even rallies, but then The Kingdom mugs Henry!
The fans boo as The Kingdom send Henry into railing! Beef still runs to CROSSBODY at the ropes! The #SloppySteak has been served, but Beef realizes what’s happening to his cousin! Beef runs up to CLOBBER The Kingdom! The fans fire up and Beef hurries back into the ring. Roddy STRONG KNEES him! Cover, Roddy wins!
Winner: Roderick Strong, by pinfall
The Kingdom used Beef’s family against him, and that is how Roddy comes away with the win. But if Roddy needed help eating up Beef, will he need all the help he can get when he and Hook battle it out?
The Righteous speak.
Ol’ Dutch says, “There’s always light after dark. You have to go through a dark place to find it, but it’s there waiting for you.” The image returns and Vincent says, “There’s a light in the AEW Tag Division. But for Vincent & Dutch, we’re that dimly lit candle that’s in the corner of the dark house. This might sound crazy to you, this might sound crazy to all of you, but the truth is, we’re all here because we’re not all there. You dig what I’m saying, man?” The Righteous sit down, and Dutch names The House of Black. Are the Righteous looking to light up The House? Or will Malakai, Brody & Buddy make sure even these two #FadeToBlack?
The Outcasts VS Allysin Kay & Marti Belle!
With Mariah May going on about her still-to-come glamorous championship celebration, and Mercedes Mone still holding onto two belts between two companies, it is anyone’s guess as to who gets their shots next. Will Saraya & Harley make sure they’re not on the outside looking in? Or will there be a Hex put on the AEW Women’s Division now that AK47 and The Voodoo Queen are here?
The teams sort out and Saraya starts against Marti. They tie up, and Marti fires off forearms! Marti puts Saraya in a corner, but Saraya bumps Marti off buckles from top to bottom! Saraya digs her boot in, stomps a mudhole, and lets off with a shout! The fans fire up, Saraya brings Marti up and ROCKS her. Saraya then backs off, distracts the ref, and that lets Harley thrash Marti around! Harley throws Marti down, Saraya sucker punches Allysin, and the ref has to hold Allysin back! Saraya gets to stomp away on Marti in that distraction, and then she bumps Marti off buckles. Tag to Harley, and she RAMS into Marti! And RAMS in again!
Harley digs her boot into Marti, then bumps Marti off buckles. Harley digs her boot in again, the ref counts, and Harley lets off. Harley runs up, Marti puts her on the apron, but Harley ROUNDHOUSES! Harley CLUBS Marti in the ropes, AX KICKS her, and then steps back in. Harley CHOKES Marti on ropes, the ref counts, but Harley lets off., Now Sararya gets cheap shots in! The fans are torn but Marti flops back. Harley tags Saraya, she tells fans to shut up, and she ROCKS Marti. Saraya whips Marti hard into railing, then she soaks up heat. The ref counts, Saraya drags Marti up and into the ring. Saraya drags Marti up and tags Harley back in.

Saraya drags Allysin up, for the KNIGHT CAP! Cover, Outcasts win!
Winners: The Outcasts, by pinfall
Saraya smiles sweety but she’s a bit of a snake sniping her own teammate’s win. But one way or another, will these two be heading for championships? WAIT! A former champion is here in the form of Jamie Hayter! Hayter storms down to the ring, The Outcasts dare her, but then Saraya bails! Harley is all alone, and Hayter DECKS her! Saraya runs away into the night! Harley staggers back to her feet, again learning Hayter Hits Hard. Will Saraya make sure she never even gets within arm’s length of Hayter? Or is there no running from what’s coming?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
In The Conglomeration’s continued efforts of collaboration, they are teaming with the hit sensation, Hologram! They’re taking on an equally interesting combination of Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari and The Beast Mortos! Will Mark Briscoe, Kyle O’Reilly and the futuristic high-flyer be able to bring down The Premier Athletes and the menacing minotaur? Then, Wheeler Yuta returns one whole week after the incident at All Out. Will he be able to focus after witnessing the brutal betrayal of Blackpool Combat Club on Bryan Danielson?

Plus, Queen Aminata and Robyn Renegade face off, both looking to rebound a bit in the rankings after recent defeats. And speaking of rebounds, Komander & Private Party were the victims of Jon Moxley and his new BCC, will they finally get their first Trios match together?
BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!
With The Don Callis Family targeting The Elite’s gold, it was only natural to make a huge Six Man Tag match! Will Ospreay, Kyle Fletcher & Konosuke Takeshita are going to face Kazuchika Okada & The Young Bucks, which side gains a major edge going into all the different title matches? Speaking The Don Callis Family…
Konosuke Takeshita w/ Don Callis VS Action Andretti w/ Lio Rush & Leila Grey!
All Out’s Continental Championship was a Fatal 4 Way, so the odds weren’t in The Alpha’s favor, but he still doesn’t like that he lost. Plus, Kazuchika Okada had to go and taunt Konosuke on Dynamite, so now he’s in a worse mood. Will Konosuke take all his anger out on Action Andretti? Or will this be a Sight to See on a Friday night?

Winner: Konosuke Takeshita, by pinfall
A message sent to everyone, but especially Okada! Will The Don Callis Family, working in chorus with Will Ospreay, be able to bring down The Elite? Or will The Rainmaker put out Konosuke’s Raging Fire before they ever go 1v1?
My Thoughts:
A very good Rampage here, maybe even great, because there was even good stuff in what should’ve been throwaway matches. I love that they gave Beef a great showing against Roderick Strong, and Beef really can do some stuff. His charisma is automatic, he’s shown character on ROH, and Henry even got fired up for Beef, a story beat that only matters to those who watch ROH, but it was still cool to see. But of course The Kingdom get involved in a roundabout way so that Roddy can win. You can bet that’ll happen when it’s Hook VS Roddy for the FTW Championship under FTW Rules, a remix of Hook VS Jericho.
Also, great promo from The Kingdom with Dustin & Sammy to set up not just an ROH World Tag Team Championship match, but a Bunkhouse Brawl! So great to have that stipulation back, the last one was during Empty Arena Era. Can’t wait to see how wild they get next Saturday. Very good promo from The Righteous, did not think they’d call out The House of Black, but if they also bring Lance Archer into this, that’s a great Six Man Tag. And great promo from Christopher Daniels to make the TNT Championship match with Jack Perry. Logically, The Bucks can now call Daniels a hypocrite for taking this Open Challenge for himself. But anyway, Jack will definitely retain, and he’ll add a big name to his list of wins.
Great Six Man Tag for The Conglomeration VS Dark Order, in which The Conglomeration of course won. That gives Cassidy momentum into his match with Jericho on Dynamite, and I suppose that’ll be some good stuff. But it feels like Jericho wins that to avenge his jacket and his Bentley, and pushes this to like Grand Slam or the Dynamite Anniversary Show. It could even be a Six Man Tag, and Bill turns on Jericho over the whole “you’re being used” line from Dynamite. Good match for Kamille that she of course would win, and that’s a great name for her finisher, because it is a phrase you can use in promos and things like my write-up.
Very good tag match from The Outcasts VS The Hex, but of course Saraya & Harley win. Speaking of Jericho’s “you’re being used” line, Saraya is of course using Harley, she let Harley take another shot from Hayter. Hayter VS Saraya is itself a Grand Slam or Anniversary Show level match, that’ll be a lot of fun. And of course, great stuff in the main event. Action got to look great, it’s been a minute since he looked this good in a singles match, but of course Konosuke won. Them making a Six Man Tag of Elite VS Don Callis Family for Dynamite is some interesting stuff. I was theorizing on Wednesday that they might already start planting seeds of Callis kicking Fletcher out of the group, and if Fletcher were to take the loss to The Elite, those seeds could be planted early.
My Score: 8.7/10
