AEW World Championship Eliminator: MJF VS Adam Cole!
Maxwell Jacob Friedman swore no one was on the level of the Devil, but then the Undisputed One stepped forward! But of course, Adam Cole can’t just cut the line without earning that right. Will Cole beat MJF here to get a title match down the line? Or will MJF cross off the very last threat to his reign of terror?
The bell rings and fans are already fired up. Cole gets fired up and the fans get even more fired up! Cole and MJF get face to face, talk some trash, and then the two back up. They circle, tie up, and MJF headlocks. Cole powers out, MJF runs him over, and MJF mocks the BAYBAY pose. MJF runs, but Cole hurdles. MJF ducks, dodges, then stops to strut. Fans boo as MJF swivels his hips, but Cole runs in! MJF dodges, things keep moving, and Cole ducks while MJF hurdles. But MJF then narrowly avoids the superkick! Cole winds it up, “ADAM COLE BAYBAY!” MJF bails out of the ring as he scowls.
Fans fire up as MJF paces. MJF goes over the railing? And he grabs someone’s popcorn to throw it all around! DC boos MJF and even flips him off, but MJF gives it back. He slaps one guy’s hat off his head! MJF goes back to ringside, soaks up all the heat, and he goes up the steel steps. MJF steps in while fans tell him off. Cole smirks but MJF just shrugs it off. They tie up, then MJF claims hair pulling! Fans boo, MJF is just copying Sheiky Baby. MJF and Cole tie up again, then MJF pulls Cole’s hair! The ref counts, MJF lets off, and he throat chops! MJF stomps Cole down! MJF then drags Cole up to wrench and WRING into the corner!

The fans count along, Cole goes all the way to ten! “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY!” Cole wrenches, whips, but MJF blocks to jam Cole’s arm! MJF runs in but Cole TOSSES him up and out! Cole shakes out the bad arm, then runs in, but gets caught int he apron skirt! MJF CLUBS away, pulls hair, and lets off as the ref reprimands. MJF brings Cole over to SMACK the arm off steel steps!
Fans boo but MJF threatens to smack them. Then MJF CLAWS Cole’s back! MJF gets Cole’s arm again, and he stands on it on the steps! Then he stomps the fingers! Cole crawls away into the ring but MJF just soaks up the heat again. MJF drags Cole back up, wraps the arm into a top wristlock, and he leans on the hold. Cole endures and fans rally up. Cole fights up to throw body shots! Cole gets free, but MJF throws him down by his hair! The ref reprimands and MJF “apologizes” before he taunts fans. MJF goes to Cole, gets the bad arm and he SLAMS it on the mat! MJF then has Cole in a mounted armbar and makes gestures with Cole’s arm.
MJF HIP DROPS the bad arm! Cole goes to a corner, MJF storms up and he snapmares Cole to then gets the arm for another top wristlock. Cole endures, even as MJF leans on the hold.

Cole kicks, but MJF ducks to pump handle, MADE IN LONG ISLAND! Cover, TWO!! Cole survives the driver but MJF huffs and puffs. Fans rally and duel, and MJF mocks the Adam Cole fans. MJF then mocks HBK to rub in Cole’s NXT past.
MJF goes to the corner to soak up more heat, and then he tunes up the band! Fans boo, MJF runs in, but into a SUPERKICK! Cole goes to a corner now while MJF has blood in his mouth! MJF shakes out the stars and he realizes what just happened to his own mouth. MJF is mad, he runs in, but into an elbow! And a BOOT! Cole rallies with big clotheslines and elbows, and then a BOOT! Fans are thunderous for Cole and he brings MJF up in a waistlock. MJF switches but Cole PELES! And BACKSTABBERS! Cover, TWO! MJF is still in this but Cole goes to a corner.

Double-edged for MJF’s knees now, and both men flop to the floor! The fans are losing their minds as Dynamite goes picture in picture!
The ref checks both men, and somehow they’re both okay to continue. But they’re both down for a long time so the ref double checks. Is MJF really okay to continue with that leg? MJF stands, hobbles over, proving he is. MJF puts Cole back in the ring, hurries to cover, TWO!! Cole is still in this and MJF is frustrated. MJF gets that bad arm, and DOUBLE STOMPS it! Cole writhes and then crawls to the corner. MJF storms up on Cole, wraps the bad arm around ropes, and pulls! The ref counts, MJF lets off, and MJF glares at all the fans. DC rally up, but MJF goes back to Cole to dig his boot in. The ref counts and MJF lets off at 4.
Cole sputters against ropes while Dynamite returns to single picture. MJF paces, he stalks Cole as he crawls to center, and MJF says, “You’re a nobody, Cole!” Cole throws a forearm, but there’s nothing behind it. MJF grins and kicks at Cole. Then MJF SPITS on Cole!

He puts that aside as he clears off the timekeeper’s table! MJF then drags Cole out of the ring to bring him over, and he puts Cole on the table!

Direct hit on Cole and fans lose their minds all over again! The ref checks both men in the wreckage while fans cheer for “A E DUB! A E DUB!” for making this the opener!
MJF sits up first, and he manages to stand. MJF tells the ref to count while he gets in the ring. The ref starts the ring count, and Cole starts to stir. The count reaches 5 of 10 while Cole does his best to sit up. The medic, Doc Sampson, is checking on Cole, is he even okay to continue? The count is 8 of 10, fans are going nuts as Cole is on his feet! Cole slides in at 9.9!! MJF is shocked! He thought he had this but Cole survives by nanoseconds!

And into the REF! Fans freak out but MJF sees an opening!
MJF hurries out, grabs the belt, and he hurries back over! MJF watches and the ref is still down. MJF throws the belt to Cole, flips him off, and pulls a Guerrero! The ref flounders around, but Cole smirks. So much for MJF’s trick! And now Cole has a weapon! Fans tell MJF he effed up! BELT SHOT!!! Cole throws the belt out, then brings the kneepad down! MJF sits up, into the BOOM!! Cover, TWO?!?! The ref couldn’t count fast enough cuz of the damage he took earlier! Fans are going nuts and Cole can’t believe MJF’s luck. Cole stands back up, he brings MJF back up, and he reloads. But MJF flops down before the Boom!
The ref checks MJF but Cole storms up behind him. Cole drags MJF up but MJF grabs at the ref! LOW BLOW MULE KICK!! MJF gest away with one and fans boo! MJF then crawls to a corner, and he brings out the Dynamite Diamond Ring!! MJF grins as he puts the ring on his pinkie, hides it behind his back, and runs in, but the ref STOPS MJF! The ref was doing it so Cole could steady himself, but now he exposes the trick! And Cole SUPERKICKS MJF!! The ref takes the ring, Cole goes up the corner! PANAMA SUNRISE!!! But that’s not all! HERE COMES THE BOOM!! Cover, the bell rings?!? TIME LIMIT DRAW?!?!
Fans can’t believe it! The 30 minutes are UP, so MJF is literally saved by the bell!! But what happens if an Eliminator is a draw? Cole grabs a mic while fans call BS! Cole tells MJF, “Five. More. Minutes.” Fans love that idea! Cole throws the mic to MJF for him to respond, but MJF just stares Cole down, belt between them. MJF then grabs the belt and slithers away. Fans boo but what else should we expect from The Devil of AEW? Will Tony Khan have to handle this one?
CM Punk speaks.
The Second City Savior says the only thing certain about him right now is that nothing is certain. He’s worked hard to get back to AEW, and he’s coming back for the same reason he first showed up. He has scores to settle and things still to do in his career. “Saturday, the 17th of June, Collision, the United Center. I won’t know what I’m gonna do or say until I have that microphone in hand. I have a lot of things to get off my chest.” Is this going to be the Pipebomb 2023?
Renee Paquette is in the ring.
And she welcomes out Sammy Guevara. Fans cheer the Spanish God as he makes his way out for the first time since Double or Nothing. The father-to-be joins Renee in the ring, and Renee notes we haven’t seen him since he was so close to becoming new AEW World Champion. That was also the same night he and wife Tay Melo announced the pregnancy, so congratulations on that. Sammy has a lot to think about, so where is his mind at? Sammy says it has been a hell of a ride these past couple months. The highest of highest, such as Tay being pregnant, which if you didn’t know, they’re having a girl!
And then there are the lowest of lows, like coming this close to becoming world champion and falling short. But the goal is always the same. And now it’ll be that much better! He’ll have his wife by his side, their baby girl in one arm, and the AEW World Championship in the other! But before that happens, Sammy has to make some tough decisions and some changes. But wait, here comes Darby Allin! A fellow Young Pillar, another man who was close to winning at Double or Nothing, now joins Sammy in the ring. Darby has his own mic to tell Sammy, “I mean this when I say it. Congratulations on the baby girl.”
But that’s not what this is about. Darby wants to talk Double or Nothing. He isn’t demanding a rematch, he lost that night, too. He wants to start from the bottom. But let’s talk about Sammy for a minute. From the sounds of it, the people are starting to love Sammy again. Fans cheer, but Darby has to ask, though. Is Sammy gonna stand on his own two feet? Or stand in the shadow of the Jericho Appreciation Society? Darby’s said it before and he’ll say it again: the biggest difference between Sammy & Jericho versus Darby & Sting, is that Darby and Sting are equals. There’s no Sting Appreciation Society.
So look, Sammy. He doesn’t have to answer now, but Darby has an idea. But wait! Here comes Chris Jericho! The fans sing along with Judas while The Wizard glares at the ring. Jericho goes down the ramp with a lot of pyro going off and Floyd the Baseball Bat in hand. Jericho has the song stop early and fans boo. Darby, you stand there and shut your mouth, and mind your own business! Don’t laugh at him, kid! Jericho then looks to Sammy and says it’s just them now. Jericho’s been meaning to ask Sammy. The whole three months of chasing MJF for the championship, he never called Jericho once! Never asked him to help once!
Y’know, Sammy’s mentor? The guy who brought you into AEW and made you a star? If you’d asked for Jericho’s help, Sammy would be here as THE AEW World Champion! Sammy says that’s funny, because he was thinking, why didn’t Jericho call Sammy? Cuz if Jericho did, then Jericho wouldn’t have lost to Adam Cole. Twice. Jericho laughs that off, and says Sammy must be having delusions of grandeur from his brush with the main event scene. Jericho will give Sammy the chance to apologize to him right now. Fans chant “NO! NO! NO!” and Sammy says he ain’t apologizing for s*it!!
Fans fire up for Sammy and Jericho says Sammy needs to remember the dynamic in the JAS. Maybe Sammy needs to remember the hierarchy. Maybe they need to reunite Le Sex Gods in a tag match next week so Sammy can remember who his boss is! Oh, a match? Darby says Jericho calls himself a wizard, but when he gets in the ring, the magic is gone. Jericho smirks at Darby, and asks if Darby wants this, “you morose mutant.” You wanna challenge Jericho by yourself? Maybe he and Sammy should beat the hell outta Darby 2v1?! Darby says he’s not really alone. Because here comes STIIIING!
Fans go wild as The Icon and HIS bat make their way out! Fans fire up as Sting gets in the ring with Jericho and the rest. Fans fire up as two legends stare down and circle. Jericho aims his bat at Sting’s neck. Sting smirks and pushes Jericho’s bat away, to aim his own! Jericho gets loose, clinks bats, but then Sting smacks back! Will Sammy have no choice but to fall in line behind The Ocho? Or will he do as Darby thinks and be his own man?
AEW hears from Sanada!
The IWGP World Heavyweight Champion introduces himself. “On June 25th, I plan to show the world the strength of an IWGP Champion. At Forbidden Door, I will hold an Open Challenge for this IWGP World Heavyweight Champion. I look forward to seeing who steps up to my challenge. AEW roster, I’m waiting for your answer. See you next time.” Who will dare step through the Forbidden Door to face The Cold Skull?

Swerve drags Darby up in a fishhook but the ref counts. Swerve lets off, then gets an arm. Swerve CLUBS away on Darby, smothers him into the mat, and Dynamite returns to single picture.

The eclectic quartet comes out on top! Garcia doesn’t seem impressed. Is the Dragonslayer looking to go after the AEW International Championship while also aiming for the ROH Pure Championship?
Backstage interview with The Gunns.
Renee is with Austin & Colten and brings up them helping out Jay White against Ricky Starks. Just what is the relationship they have with The Switchblade? Austin says they have no idea what she’s talking about. But Colten says what they do know is that they were raised to be polite gentlemen. That’s why they don’t talk bad about anyone. They’ll talk about something that matters: Them! They’re the best tag team in AEW, and the best brother tag team in AEW. There is one team they have their eyes on, and those brothers get extreme. BLAM BLAM! That team has had their time, run their course, they’re washed up, it’s enough.
So that is why next week, in Chicago, on Dynamite, the Gunns challenge The Hardys to prove who is truly the best brother tag team today. And Renee, do something with your hair. Yikes. The Ass Boys are calling out the Hardy Boyz, but will Jeff & Matt take Austin & Colten to those extremes?
AEW TNT Championship: Wardlow w/ Arn Anderson VS Jake Hager!
The Maestro of Mayhem knows Christian Cage & Luchasaurus will be back for more, and he’s ready to give it to them. But first, he looks to defend this title against another familiar foe in the JAS’s Big Hurt! Will Wardlow get hurt before settling things with Captain Charisma? Or will he be composing yet another Powerbomb Symphony?
But wait! Hager attacks Wardlow during his entrance! Hager throws hands, CLOBBERS Wardlow to ringside, and then POSTS him! Fans boo as Hager gets Wardlow in the ring. The bell rings, Hager fires off body shots in the corner! Fans chant for “WARD~LOW!” while the ref counts. Hager stops at 4, but then starts up the body shots again! The ref counts again, Hager lets off to soak up the heat, and then he goes back to whip corner to corner. Wardlow comes back to CLOBBER Hager! And again! And then Wardlow gets around to GERMAN SUPLEX! Fans fire up with Wardlow as he sees Hager go to a corner.
Wardlow runs in to RAM Hager, and then whips him corner to corner. Hager reverses, runs in, but Wardlow TOSSES Hager up and out! Hard landing for Hager but Wardlow is feeling good! Wardlow goes out, fans rally up and he runs in to CLOBBER Hager! DC is fired up as Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Wardlow drags Hager up, POSTS him in return, and then has him against railing. Wardlow brings Hager around, CLUBS him and puts him in the ring. Hager box jumps to the apron and fans cheer. Wardlow then runs in to clothesline Hager in the corner! Wardlow whips corner to corner hard and Hager bounces off buckles. Wardlow stomps Hager, jams a knee into Hager’s back, and then covers. TWO, but Wardlow keeps his cool. Hager goes to a corner, Wardlow RAMS into him! And again! Wardlow brings Hager around to suplex, and TOSS! Hager writhes but fans cheer as Wardlow flexes.

Wardlow drags Hager up, reels him in, and fans fire up, only for Matthew Menard & Angelo Parker to appear! That distraction allows Hager to CHOP BLOCK Wardlow! Arn tells Menard & Parker to stay back, and they tell him to do something about it. Arn’s got the “Glock!” Or rather, BROCK! Brock Anderson rushes out to fire off on Parker, and then Arn DECKS Menard! Father and son run Menard & Parker off, but Hager stalks Wardlow. SPINEBUSTER! Cover, ONE??!!
Hager is shocked but he goes to the far corner. Wardlow is in the drop zone, Hager runs in, HAGER BOMBÂ into boots! Hager staggers, Wardlow clotheslines him up and out of the ring! And then PLANCHAS?! Direct hit and Wardlow lands on his feet! Wardlow gets Hager in, goes up a corner, and SWANTON BOMBS!! Fans fire up and Wardlow brings down the straps! Wardlow drags Hager up, for the POWERBOMB! But that’s just the first! Second verse, same as the first, a POWERBOMB!! Cover, Wardlow wins!
Winner: Wardlow, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)
The TNT title is still in Wardlow’s World, but Christian & Luchasaurus are on the tron! The audio isn’t working so Christian’s message is having no effect. Wardlow says Christian is all talk anyway. The sound finally kicks in and Christian says everyone knows he should be TNT Champion! A few weeks ago on Dynamite, Wardlow threw the challenge to Luchasaurus. So they’re here to say Luchasaurus accepts! It’ll be the debut of AEW Collision in Chicago! But the question for Wardlow is… “What’s gonna happen when your new daddy isn’t there to save you next time?” Luchasaurus drags a bloodied Arn on screen!
Wardlow runs to the back but we don’t even know where this is in the arena! Will Captain Charisma sink to new lows in order for his Right Hand of Destruction to take the title?
AEW hears from Hiroshi Tanahashi!
“It’s NJPW’s Master of the Century, Hiroshi Tanahashi. MJF, as long as you’re champion, that belt won’t shine like it should. Last year at Forbidden Door, I came this close to beating Moxley for the AEW title. So this year at Forbidden Door, MJF, face me one on one!” The Ace just called out the Devil, what will be his response? Speaking of…
Backstage interview with MJF.
Renee finds him in the trainer’s room getting checked out. She commends him on the great match tonight, and brings up Tanahashi’s challenge just now. It has already been made official, Forbidden Door will see MJF VS Tanahashi for the AEW World Championship. Wait, come again? Not about Tanahashi, but the rest. He then cuts Renee off and says the answer’s no. He doesn’t feel like giving a shot to a “rando from a rinky-dink indie fed in Japan.” As far as Tony Khan “booking” him for things, wouldn’t be the first time he no-showed something like that. So Tanahashi, PBBT. Sorry, no can do, bud. Renee, you can go now.
Renee does leave, and the medic gets back to checking MJF. Ow, ow, careful! MJF is sore, tired, and acting like a child, but will he have no choice but to go through the Forbidden Door?
Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.
Renee is with the International Champion and says that a lot of times, we already know what his matches are going to be, who is challenging him, but we don’t have that right now. What is next for Freshly Squeezed? Yeah, y’know how this works. Right about now, someone will walk in and make a challenge. Oh hey! Zack Sabre Jr. is here! And the NJPW World Television Champion says hello to “Orange Bullocks.” Well, see, Cassidy mentioned ZSJ’s name a couple weeks ago at the media scrum, and well, ZSJ might be the first-ever NJPW World TV Champion, but next Sunday is Forbidden Door, now isn’t it?
And ZSJ very much thinks that the idea of a Double Champion is “pretty bloody marvelous.” What does Cassidy- But in walks Garcia! And he says ZSJ doesn’t even work here, okay? But yeah, a Double Champion is a great idea. Garcia was the person closest to beating Cassidy for that title, and his second belt of choice is the ROH Pure Championship. So speaking of, where’s Cassidy’s boy, Shibata, at? Uh, yeah, Shibata’s not here tonight. But he will next week. So how about, uh… ZSJ & Garcia VS Cassidy & Shibata on Dynamite? Good? See you then. Cassidy heads out, Garcia looks for a high-five from ZSJ, but ZSJ tells him to “pack it in.”
ZSJ leaves Garcia hanging, but will these two submission specialists take down the Freshly Squeezed & The Wrestler?
AEW Women’s World Championship: Toni Storm w/ Ruby Soho VS Skye Blue!
The Outcasts have started taking over AEW, but they’ve made a lot of enemies along the way. Chicago Skye was a major dark horse in Rampage’s Fatal 4 Way but she came out on top against three former women’s champions! Will Skye now join the championship club herself?

The Outcasts see Mama Blue ringside and taunt her supporting her daughter. The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if Skye makes her mama proud here tonight!
The bell rings and Storm runs in! Skye dodges, and she fires off forearms! Fans fire up with Skye as she has Storm down! Skye CLUBS and KICKS and stomps Storm around, then CLUBS her some more! Storm goes to a corner but Skye CHOPS! And fires off more forearms! The ref counts, Skye lets off but fans fire up more. Skye runs in, but storm puts her out on the apron.

The ref counts, Storm lets off and they argue, but Ruby SMACKS Skye with the Saraya cutout!
Ruby gets away with that cheap shot, and surely Saraya is cheering from the UK. Dynamite returns to single picture as Storm stands Skye up, but Skye throws forearms! Fans fire up as Skye fires off on Storm! Skye whips, Storm reverses and scoops, but Skye tilt-o-whirls to RANA! And then SHINING WIZARD against ropes! Snapmare, SUPER- NO, Storm blocks that, but Skye spins through to BASEMENT ROUNDHOUSE! Storm goes to ropes, fans fire up as Skye runs in, but Storm sends her right into ropes! The ref reprimands while Skye flops out of the ring. The ref has Ruby stay back but Storm goes out to fetch Skye.
Ruby and Storm hug but fans boo. Storm drags Skye up, puts her in the ring, and then Ruby slips Storm the spray paint! The ref counts, Storm gets on the apron but so does Ruby. The ref stops Ruby, but this allows Storm to get in with the paint. Storm storms up on Skye, but wait! Skye has her own BLUE spray paint!! She gets Storm right in the face! SUPERKICK!! And then Storm swings on Ruby! Ruby runs away, Skye runs at Storm and hops on, CODE BLUE!! Cover, but Ruby distracts!! Skye should’ve won twice over by now!! Skye gets up to SUPERKICK Ruby! Skye runs at Storm, but into a HOTSHOT!
STORM ZERO!! Cover, TWO?!?! Skye survives and Storm is furious!! The fans are thunderous as Storm gets the legs, TEXAS CLOVERLEAF!!! Storms its on it deep, and Skye TAPS! Storm wins!
Winner: Toni Storm, by submission (still AEW Women’s World Champion)
Skye almost beat Storm at her own game, but Skye forgot that Storm never rolls alone! And now, Ruby thrashes Skye! The Outcasts mug Skye to make her pay for being such a tough fight! But wait, here comes WILLOW NIGHTINGALE! Another woman the Outcasts have pissed off is here! Willow runs Storm & Ruby off and helps Skye up. Will the NJPW Strong Women’s Champion put the bullies in their place?
Backstage interview with #JungleHook.
Renee is with Jack Perry and the FTW Champion and notes they had a hell of a match last week in that Texas Tornado Tag. How are they feeling? Jack says they’re hyped! The Summer of JungleHook is in full swing. And to be honest, JB is feeling naked next to Hook without a belt of his own. JB said he was gonna get a title this year, so right now, he is officially accepting that Open Challenge for Sanada’s IWGP World Heavyweight Championship! Hook’s reaction? JB has him hold on, because he has been meaning to talk about this with him. After JB wins, they can go back to being a tag team.
As such, Hook isn’t just a tag team partner, he’s JB’s best friend. It’d mean the world to JB if Hook would be in his corner at Forbidden Door. JB offers the fist bump, and Hook returns it. That’s a yes! Will the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil and Tarzan Life look to become a two man power trip?
AEW hears from Bullet Club Gold and FTR
Juice Robinson says, “On a historic Saturday, the first ever Collision, in the first ever main event, you better believe it involves Bullet Club Gold.” Jay White adds, “And FTR, who is the partner that you’re bringing with you to Chicago?” Dax Harwood says it’s “one of the best professional wrestlers to ever step foot in a wrestling ring, CM Punk, he returns. The debut of Collision, Six Man Tag with our best friend.” White says Punk has been around, he’s been in a lot of different locker rooms, but he’s never been in a match with Rock Hard Juice Robinson and King Switch Jay White! The Bang Bang Gang and who is their partner? SAMOA! JOE!!
White says that this homecoming isn’t going to be how Punk dreamed it would be. This ends with guns up. Cash Wheeler says that Samoa Joe, Jay White & Juice Robinson, at Collision’s debut show, “it’s clobbering time.” #TopGuysOut. Just how big of a collision will this premiere main event be?

Bryan says Ospreay is now his choice for that title match. But wait, Ospreay isn’t done! Underhooks, Canadian Rack, STORMBREAKER!! Callis applauds, mostly because of his grudge against Omega. Wait, Ospreay still isn’t done! One more HIDDEN BLADE!!!
The United Empire’s leader has fired the first shot, and several more shots, and Bryan gives that a standing ovation. Will the IWGP US Championship return to NJPW with Ospreay?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here that not only set up a lot more for Collision but also more for Forbidden Door. For Collision, good promo from Punk walking the streets of Chicago, and really good promo from Bullet Club Gold and FTR. I’m surprised there wasn’t anything from Samoa Joe, but maybe he’ll have something to say on ROH or Rampage this week. And great to see that Miro and Andrade are each going to be in action right from the start on Collision. Maybe Andrade rejoins LFI so that they can get in on the Trios Division and have a program with The House of Black.
Great TNT Championship match from Wardlow and Hager, and awesome showing from Skye Blue in a loss to Storm in the Women’s World Championship match. AEW really nailing things with Christian’s tron promo #sarcasm. But I guess Luchasaurus was lying in wait as Arn & Brock chased off Menard & Parker for Luchasaurus to get at Arn. Wardlow VS Luchasaurus for the TNT title on Collision is going to be big stuff, but I feel like Luchasaurus winning would make it all matter. Willow with the save was a nice touch, as we never got the big team match of Outcasts VS everyone else. Willow & Skye VS Storm & Ruby will be good, and is probably the bare minimum one women’s division match Tony gives Collision.
We got just an awesome opener out of Cole and MJF, and I actually really like the time limit draw. It isn’t a loss so Cole isn’t “eliminated” from the running, but MJF doesn’t really lose, so they can circle back to those two at All In or All Out. I like that the NJPW stars are being the proactive ones in setting up Forbidden Door matches, but of course MJF thinks he can just say no to Tanahashi when he’s not the boss. There’s one more week before Forbidden Door, so I fully expect Tony Khan telling MJF he either faces Tanahashi or his title reign is terminated. And good promo from Jungle Boy to accept Sanada’s challenge while also telling Hook they’re sticking together. I don’t know how long that really lasts, it still feels like JB could turn on Hook to go after the FTW title.
Good promo from The Gunns to call out the Hardys but I feel like they’re losing. Though maybe Starks helps out as revenge on The Gunns? Not sure the point of Gunns going after Starks but the booking for Starks has been really weird, and is starting to feel like poor excuses for keeping him away from pretty much all the titles. And great promo from Sammy, Darby and Jericho, as well as Sting and Jericho going bat to bat. I’m thinking Le Sex Gods VS Relentless Icons is going to be the moment Sammy stands up for himself against Jericho, or perhaps even just ditches Jericho, and finally breaks away from Jericho and factions.
Awesome 8 Man Tag tonight, even if throwing Keith Lee back into things was rather hasty. I suppose the Faces winning was the right move, as it gives Cassidy momentum going into Forbidden Door. I love that ZSJ isn’t satisfied just feuding with Samoa Joe as TV Champion VS TV Champion, and neither is Garcia with again becoming ROH Pure Champion. ZSJ & Garcia VS Cassidy & Shibata is going to be awesome stuff as like an appetizer for Forbidden Door. I can’t be sure who wins that, but I’m leaning towards the Faces. Shibata will have momentum going into a match with Garcia, and Cassidy will keep surviving despite being so beat up.
And of course, awesome stuff out of Elite VS BCC in that Six Man Tag. Great win for Hangman & The Bucks, and then just great chaos following that. Eddie Kingston is back, maybe continuing his feud with Claudio for the ROH World Championship, and great continuity that Eddie and Moxley being friends could not bring themselves to throw hands. And then of course Konosuke gets in there to go after pretty much anyone that isn’t BCC, even though he isn’t officially in BCC either.
Omega returning was also great, and then Ospreay showing up outta nowhere was also great. But wow, he sure piled on the damage on Omega. Ospreay may stand tall here, but I feel like that doesn’t make the go-home math in Omega’s favor. I still think because of the BCC and Callis, Omega is going to lose the title so Ospreay can defend it in NJPW events. And with NJPW’s G1 Climax coming up in July and August, there wouldn’t be any other opportunity for someone to take the US title off Omega, so at least Ospreay would be carrying that belt around and adding days to his reign during the tournament.
My Score: 8.8/10

Renee Paquette is with The Galaxy’s Greatest and notes we haven’t seen Kris in action since her win at All Out. What does she have her sights set on next? Kris says we could all sense that Chicago Street Fight was the end of an era for her. She has been in a group, she has had a manager, and with the anniversary of Dynamite just passing, let’s bring it back to how she started in AEW: on her own. Kris is stronger, more independent, she’s like, a “Born Again Kristen.” We all saw that she is the toughest, the strongest, and- Kamille steps in. The Brickhouse asks if that’s right. Biggest? Toughest? Strongest? Her match is next.
Kamille pushes past Kris, and Mercedes Mone follows. The CEO tells Kris, “You better watch, b*tch.” Mone laughs, did she just put herself on Kris’ radar?
Backstage interview with Harley Cameron.
Renee is now with the wacky Aussie and says while she’s in a match tonight with Queen Aminata, does Harley have an update on Saraya after that vicious match with Jamie Hayter? Harley says Saraya is currently incapacitated. No further questions. But what about her match with- NO further questions! Then what about…? Oh, yes, yes, her match. She should say something on that. Harley tells Aminata, “You are in a lot of trouble. RAWR!” That’ll do, right? Sure… Harley heads out, will she take out her frustrations on Aminata tonight? Or is she going to end up “incapacitated” alongside Saraya?
Kamille w/ Mercedes Mone VS Zoey Lynn!
The Brickhouse is The CEO’s big investment, and insurance policy. Will the former NWA World Women’s Champion remind us why she is a former NWA World Women’s Champion? Or can Zoey bring her down with some Angel Dust?
The bell rings and Kamille SPEARS Zoey!! The fans boo but Mone says Kamille has arrived! Kamille drags Zoey up, dragon sleepers, and TWISTING NECKBREAKER! Cover, Kamille wins!
Winner: Kamille, by pinfall
Mone raises Kamille’s hand as they both stand over Zoey Lynn. Between The CEO and The Brickhouse, will no one stop them from taking over AEW?
Backstage interview with Anna Jay.
Renee is now with The Queenslayer, and says she had a tremendous showing in her return to AEW last week. It got a lot of people’s attention, but especially Will Ospreay. Anna says yes, Ospreay tweeted out a compliment on how great she has improved, from footwork to pacing, so she thanks Ospreay for that. He’s not too bad himself. Having one of the greatest wrestlers alive today see your hard work paying off is one of the best feelings ever. So if Ospreay sees it, then you know the AEW Women’s Division is seeing it. So if you don’t take her word for it, and if you don’t take Ospreay’s word for it, just do her a favor and try her.
Deonna Purrazzo & Taya Valkyrie speak.
The Virtuosa says, “This thing of ours operates according to a code. That those who want respect give respect.” La Wera Loca says, “It’s simple, elegant.” Deonna has shown Taya generosity, and Taya accepted it. Despite early missteps, Deonna remains committed to this thing of theirs, because Taya has earned Deonna’s respect by owning the misstep. Taya says there is much to learn for “I” to become “We.” Deonna says that is what is missing in a place like AEW. These two must teach AEW that they are all bound together by the code. Those that want respect must give respect. And those who refuse get it beaten into them!
Queen Aminata VS Harley Cameron!
The One True African Woman may have Serena Deeb in her sights, and the wacky Aussie may have Jamie Hayter on her mind, they both must focus on who is in the ring with them. Will Aminata prove to the Professor that she doesn’t need the lessons? Or can Harley show Hayter that she’s not the only one who hits hard?
The bell rings, the two circle, and Harley KNEES low! Harley headlocks, Aminata powers up and out, then waistlocks. Harley fights the lift, throws elbows, then runs. Aminata gets around to waistlock and SLAM! The fans fire up while Harley hobbles up. Aminata and Harley circle again, Harley gets around to waistlock, but Aminata wrenches out. Aminata wristlocks, brings Harley down, then steps over to twerk attack! Aminata wrenches more, but Harley kicks low! And KICKS again! And ENZIGIRIS! Aminata wobbles, Harley brings Aminata in and, uh, wait, aren’t The Iron Savages the ones who take us to Tiddy City?
Harley runs, but Aminata ROCKS her! Amianta snapmares Harley, runs, and PENALTY KICKS! The fans fire up while Aminata smiles, and she stalks Harley to a corner. Aminata runs around the world to BOOT WASH! Aminata reminds us she is the one and only, and Rampage goes picture in picture.
Aminata pushes Harley around, brings her up, but Harley bails out. Harley says timeout, but Aminata goes out after her. Aminata storms up but Harley KNEES her low, then THROWS her by her hair! Harley CHOKES Aminata on the outside, but Aminata kicks her away. The ref reprimands but Harley grins. Harley storms up on Aminata, SMACKS her off the apron, and then soaks up heat. Harley puts Aminata in the ring, continues to play coy, then storms up to HIP DROP Aminata. Cover, TWO! Harley is annoyed but Aminata fires body shots. Harley CLUBS Aminata down, then clamps on a chinlock.
Harley grinds Aminata down, but Aminata endures. Aminata fights up, fights back, but Harley knees low again! Harley bumps Aminata off buckles, stomps a mudhole in, but steps off as the ref counts. Harley bumps Aminata off more buckles, then grinds her boot in. The ref counts, Harley steps back, and she drags Aminata up. Harley brings Aminata around to throw her down by her hair! Cover, TWO! Aminata stays in this, but Rampage goes to break.
Rampage returns and Harley ELBOWS Aminata in the shoulder! And ELBOWS her again! Harley LICKS Aminata, then runs to SHINING WIZARD! Cover, TWO! Harley overcommitted on that deep leg hook, and Amianta survives for it. Harley runs in, but Aminata puts her on the apron! Harley ROUNDHOUSES, puts Aminata in ropes, and AX KICKS her down! The fans boo but Harley aims, to then run and- NO, Aminata blocks the kick to trip Harley up! Harley hits the apron hard, and Aminata brings her around. DOUBLE CHOP! The fans fire up and Aminata puts Harley in the ring. Aminata storms up but Harley fires forearms!
Aminata ROCKS Harley! And DOUBLE CHOPS! Harley falls, jumps back up, but Aminata wrenches and snap suplexes! And LARIATS! Cover, TWO!! Harley survives but Aminata stays cool. Aminata runs in again, but Harley avoids the boot wash! Harley RAMS into Aminata again and again, but the ref counts. Harley lets off, huffs ‘n’ puffs, then runs in. Aminata goes up and over, comes back, and she catches Harley’s crossbody! The fans cheer as Amianta swings, but Harley sunset flips through! High stack, TWO! Aminat ais up, she dodges Harley, and scoops again! Harley tilt-o-whirls but Aminata powers her to a BACKBREAKER!
The fans fire up, QUEEN’S CROWN!! Cover, Aminata wins!
Winner: Queen Aminata, by pinfall
The former #BrainDrain gives Aminata a great win, but then Serena Deeb attacks from behind!! The Professor is pissed, and she SLAMS Amianta’s leg on the apron! Serena grins as she grabs the leg and pulls it against ropes in a HALF CRAB! Aminata taps, but here comes Britt Baker! The Doctor is returning the favor from Wednesday, but Serena bails! The Professor got her shots on Aminata, but will the walls start closing in?
Backstage interview with The Acclaimed.
Renee is now with Max Caster, Anthony Bowens & Billy Gunn, and Caster is still sporting the remade jacket. With that, let’s talk MXM Collection. It is hard to keep track of what is going on, but Billy speaks up. He doesn’t mean to correct her, but he is “Hans!” Hans Gunn! But MXM, how stupid are you to not know it was Billy? It was Billy all along! So stupid, trying to embarrass The Best Wrestler Alive, try to embarrass The Acclaimed, with a makeover on Caster’s jacket. Y’know what? Caster likes the lace, how it makes his arms look bigger. And this heart cutout makes his muscles look popping! He looks as handsome as ever!
Bowens says that’s right! Before, they were gonna cut that thing up. But no, MXM just embarrassed themselves. Acclaimed said to nut up or shut up, and they sure shut up MXM real quick. Just like they will do if they get in the ring. Because once The Acclaimed is done with MXM, they will get the makeover of a lifetime. WHY? Because EVERYONE Loves The Acclaimed! When and where will Platinum Max & The Scissor King cut down the Sultan of Suave and the Mahogany Hunk?
BREAKING NEWS for WrestleDream!
After Konosuke Takeshita attacked Will Ospreay and Ricochet on Wednesday, it seems the only way to settle this International Championship scenario is with a TRIPLE THREAT! Will The Alpha finally have gold in AEW? Will the Aerial Assassin finally be done with The Don Callis Family? Or are they both overlooking The One & Only?
Orange Cassidy & Kyle O’Reilly VS “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith!
The Conglomeration has been very busy this week. They were here Wednesday to confront The Learning Tree, and we now have Mark Briscoe VS Chris Jericho for the ROH World Championship at WrestleDream. But speaking of, Jericho is joining commentary to watch his guys, The Redwood & The Bad Apple. Will Freshly Squeezed & The Violent Artist prune these Branches? Or will they be made to respect Chris Jericho?
The teams sort out and Cassidy starts against Bill. The fans rally as Cassidy and Bill stare down, and Bill mocks the hands in pockets. The fans boo, but Bill says show him how it’s done then. Cassidy puts his hands near pockets, but Bill runs up! Cassidy dodges, sunset flips, but Bill stays standing. Cassidy stops trying, and Bill YANKS Cassidy up! Bill whips, Cassidy stops by holding ropes, and then Casidy bails out. Cassidy shakes his head, knowing his limits against a man as big as Bill. Bill mockingly holds the ropes open and calls to Cassidy like a puppy dog. Cassidy steps up, but then rolls into the ring.
The fans cheer as Cassidy lounges on the mat. Bill storms up but then Cassidy rolls back out of the ring. The fans cheer more while Bill gets annoyed. Bill storms out, Cassidy slides in! Bill steps back in, Cassidy ducks ‘n’ dodges and tags Kyle! Kyle runs up but Bill RAMS him! Kyle drops out of the ring and the fans cheer. Bill is annoyed as he watches Kyle & Cassidy coordinate. They go up, Bill runs up, but The Conglomeration drops back. Bill is getting mad, but The Conglomeration high-five and the fans cheer. Keith says don’t worry, Bill, just cool down. Keith and Bill talk strategy while Kyle finally returns.
Bill tags Keith and the fans rally up. Keith and Kyle circle, but Keith takes a swing on Cassidy! Cassidy avoids it, and Kyel waistlocks to then wrangle Keith. Kyle floats all over, slaps Keith around, then eggs him on. The fans cheer, but Keith frowns. Keith SLAPS Kyel! Kyle storms up, Keith bails out, and the chase is on. Bill is lurking, but Kyel dodges him! BOOT for Keith! But Bill has Kyle with the guzel! CHOKE- NO, Cassidy DROPKICKS Bill! Bill lets Kyle go but he also stays up. Bill frowns, but Kyle BOOTS him, then Kyle FLYING KNEES Keith! Cassidy DIVES and he sends Bill into railing! Kyle pushes Keith into Bill, and then KICKS!
Cassidy “kicks,” Kyle KICKS, and repeat as Rampage goes pictur ein pnicture!
The KICKS and kicks keep going, then it’s just all KICKS as Cassidy gets serious! The Conglomeration puts Keith in, DOUBLE KICK Bill, then Kyle hurries into the ring. Kyle fires knees into Keith, then tags Cassidy. They whip Keith, kitchen sink knee, and basement dropkick! Kyle runs to KNEE DROP, Cassidy runs up, to cover! TWO! Cassidy checks and yes, it was a two count, so Cassidy gives thumbs up. Cassidy brings Keith up, ROCKS him, and tags in Kyle. Kyle climbs up and rains down fists!

Cassidy scoots in for a photo op, but Keith endures being twisted up. Kyle makes it a cradle, TWO! Kyle brings Keith around, but Keith fires forearms! Kyle fires a strike fest, then sweeps the leg! Kyle paces around, we get a great shot coming through one of the Pittsburgh University halls, and Rampage returns to single picture. Kyle tags Cassidy, they mug Keith but Keith fights back! Keith suplexes Cassidy, but gets STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE!

Cassidy runs, tilt-o-whirls on Bill, but Bill stops the DDT! Kyle slips in, and he dropkicks Bill’s leg! Bill drops to a knee, but he still holds Cassidy up!

Winners: Kyle O’Reilly & Orange Cassidy, by pinfall
The numbers game didn’t go how Jericho wanted, and his team is on the losing end! Will this be the same for when The Learning Tree takes on The Sussex County Chicken in Tacoma, Washington? Or will The Ocho still become The Nueve?
Meanwhile, Kyle & Cassidy only have 24 hours to rest, because they have a Collision with The Premier Athletes tomorrow night! Will Pittsburgh be Freshly Squeezed all weekend long?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here, which is interesting as there’s word Rampage is going to be shut down for whatever show AEW puts on Fox Sports 1. Honestly, they should’ve been trying hard the whole time with Rampage but whatever. Kamille probably had the shortest squash match in AEW yet, but it was to make a point after she and Mone got in Kris’s face. Kris’s promo was still rather Heel like, but it’s a bit surprising that she and Stokely Hathaway have just parted ways with no real pomp or circumstance. And pitting her against Kamille and Mone would be quite the way to turn her back to Face. Not that Kris’s attitude needs to change, she’d just be Face by default with those two.
Very good promo from Deonna & Taya, this maybe should’ve been given to us a bit sooner, but it also doesn’t really add much to the story. Good promo from Anna Jay, can’t wait to see what’s next for her. Good promo from Harley to segue into her match, which was a great match. Like Anna Jay, Harley is really improving, but Aminata still gets a great win. But of course Serena attacks Aminata, and then of course Britt Baker saves Aminata. I feel like we could get a tag match of Britt & Aminata VS Serena and who knows, but it’d be a great opportunity for any Heel to get on TV, maybe have someone actually take Serena up on teaching them things.
Great opening Six Man Tag tonight, definitely higher quality than what they usually put on Rampage. And it was rather surprising Shibata & Private Party took the win here, if only because they also announced that Triple Threat #1 Contenders match during it. I kinda though that news undercut what was going on in the match, regardless of who won. But given the feud between House of Black and Top Flight, I feel like Private Party wins out and they get the tag title match. As it stands, it doesn’t feel like Shibata or Private Party win the titles at WrestleDream, mostly because The Elite might cheat, but it’d be so great if Private Party finally won the big one.
And great main event here, even if this feud of Conglomeration and #JerichoVortex is going a little longer than needed. I really hope Jericho VS Briscoe for the ROH World Championship is the blowoff, and hopefully with Briscoe retaining. Not sure what that would mean for either team, but if it’s what we’ve all been hoping, i.e. Jericho mistreating Bill and Bill turning on Jericho, that’d be nice. Bill can maybe get himself going on a title story, too, using even just one win over Jericho as the springboard towards the TNT or Continental Championships.
My Score: 8.8/10

The Blackpool Combat Club speaks.
The Bastard says, “War is upon us. It’s time to choose sides. But you see, we know you. We know you’re not like the rest of them: A zoo creature, somebody bought to be paraded around. No, you’re more than that. You’re not a fluffy, cute animal, a creature, no. You’re a lion. So stop acting like you haven’t already chosen.” The Swiss Superman says, “I’m still the same guy. So is Mox. I guess I don’t understand what the problem is. If you wanna talk to me, you know where to find me. This is your home. We still have big plans for you, Wheeler.” The Problem steps up and speaks in Moldovan, but it’s clearly her telling Wheeler to figure it out.
The Maniac finally turns around to say, “I prayed every night you wouldn’t win the AEW World Championship, Bryan, but you did. So here we are. I’m gonna have that belt one way or another. There will be casualties. You’re gonna get a gift. A gift from the universe, a gift from me, not a lot of people get. I’m giving you the opportunity to go out on your shield, to die a warrior’s death, on your home soil. You will be buried in your backyard, peacefully, beautifully. Fate’s not gonna put a better offer on the table than that, man. On October 12th, when I officially relieve you of duty, I’m sending Daddy home for good.”
The BCC has issued their ultimatums to The Decoder and the American Dragon, will either of them heed the warning?
AEW International Championship: Will Ospreay VS Ricochet!
It has been a long time since The Aerial Assassin and The One & Only have faced off in the ring. Both men have held gold all around the world, but that’s not even what this battle is about. Ricochet wants to show us what he can really do, and Ospreay hopes he remembers how. Who will stand tall as AEW continues into a new chapter?
But as Ospreay prepares backstage with Kyle Fletcher’s help, Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita step in. Callis says they need to talk about last week, but he wishes Ospreay the best of luck. Callis says the Family has to get going, they have a flight to catch. Ospreay is now without his good friend, but will this be more about his mental state? Ospreay makes his entrance and the introductions are made. The belt is raised, and we see if this anniversary show will be #OuttaThisWorld!
The bell rings and the fans are losing their minds already. Ricochet and Ospreay tie up, go around, and Ospreay puts Ricochet on ropes. Pittsburgh already declares, “This is Awesome!” as the two let off slowly. Ospreay takes a swing, but Ricochet dodges to hit a headlock takeover. Ospreay headscissors, Ricochet kips free, and roles reverse as Ospreay hits a takeover and then Ricochet headscissors. Ospreay kips free, trips, jackknife bridge, but Ricochet bridges up and out to backslide! TWO, and Ricochet headlocks. Ospreay powers up and out, but Ricochet runs Ospreay over! Ospreay kips up and the fans fire up!

Ricochet runs back in, goes up and springboard arm-drags, but Ospreay handsprings through! Ospreay runs, RANAS, but Ricochet handsprings through! Ricochet ducks, rolls, RANAS, but Ospreay handsprings through! The fans fire up as things keep moving, they both dodge, and they both handspring superhero land! The fans are thunderous seeing the iconic moment between these two recreated before their eyes! Ospreay and Ricochet stare down as they stand back up, and the fans are cheering “A E DUB!” for making this happen.

Ricochet puts Ospreay in, slingshot SENTONS, then paces while Ospreay sputters. Ricochet KICKS Ospreay on the back, the fans rally and duel, and Ricochet drags Ospreay up.

Ricochet survives, but Ospreay calls his shot again! Ospreay goes to ropes, only for Ricochet to fall over! Ospreay stops, and grins as he walks over to Ricochet. Ospreay looms over Ricochet while he tells him to get up. Ricochet slowly sits up, Ospreay eggs him on, and Ricochet sits up.

The ref talks with Justin Roberts, and the decision comes in.
Justin Roberts lets us know that with both men pinned on the mat, this is ruled a DRAW.
Double Pinfall Draw; Ospreay retains the title
But even Ospreay and Ricochet don’t like that! They want to go again, and the fans even chant “FIVE MORE MINUTES!” The ref says sure, and even Tony Khan calls in to say let’s do it! The match is back on, let’s see who’s really the One & Only!
The two run up and fire forearms fast ‘n’ furious! The fans are thunderous as neither man is backing down! They are slowing down, though. Ospreay wobbles, but he fires back up to ROCK Ricochet! Ricochet comes back, both men BOOT! And BOOT! Ospreay blocks a kick, Ricochet blocks a kick, and DOUBLE ROUNDHOUSES connect! Both men stagger, both men roar, HIDDEN BLADE from Ospreay!! BUT KONOSUKE ATTACKS OSPREAY?!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by disqualification (still AEW International Champion)
The fans boo more as The Alpha ruins all the fun! What happened to the Don Callis Family leaving? But now Konosuke aims, POWER DRIVE KNEE into Ospreay!! And then Konosuke aims at Ricochet, ALPHA ELBOW!! Then, RAGING FIRE!! The fans boo as Konosuke leaves Ospreay and Ricochet down and out, and then snatches the International Championship! Konosuke stands with that belt over both Ospreay and Ricochet while fans tell him off. Will Konosuke look to bring this gold back to The Family himself?
Mercedes Mone speaks.
The AEW TBS & NJPW Strong Women’s Champion is with her Brickhouse, Kamille, as well as Renee Paquette. Renee holds the mic so Mone can hold both her titles while saying, “Pittsbuuuuuuurgh~! Please say hello to your C E O.” Renee says tonight, we celebrate five years- Yes, and what a beautiful five years! Mone is so blessed to have played even just a small part of AEW Dynamite history. That is why she has put together a very special video package of Dynamite’s best moments. “Hit it, Money Mike.”
The video is played up, and if you can’t guess, it is all Mone’s moments in AEW. Her debut at Big Business in Boston, her winning the TBS Championship, and just winning in general. Mone smiles and asks if that was an amazing video. AEW’s best moments are all about her, because AEW is where the money resides, and AEW’s future is so bright, because Mone Changes Everything. And MVP steps in to say yes it does! He loves Big Business. Please, take his card, maybe they can talk. MVP heads out, will The CEO consider his offer?
Backstage interview with Austin & Colten Gunn.
Renee is now with The Gunns and brings up Juice Robinson facing Hangman Page 1v1 tonight. It was just last week, Grand Slam Collision, that Hangman tried to literally hang Juice. What can we expect tonight? Austin says Renee, and better yet, Pittsburgh, tonight, the Juice is loose! And- HANGMAN CLOBBERS AUSTIN FROM BEHIND! And then he brawls with Colten! Hangman sends Colten through a door, and then storms off. The Black Hat has left the Collision Cowboys writhing, will he cross off Juice later tonight?
“Big Bill” Morrissey is in the ring.
The Redwood has a mic to say, “Ladies and gentlemen, five years of AEW Dynamite!” The fans cheer that, but Bill wants us to remember. “As The Learning Tree always says, it is not about the destination, it is about who we become as people along the way.” Uh, sure… Bill says we can all agree that over the past 1,825 days, we have all become better people, all thanks to one man: The Learning Tree, Chris Jericho! The fans boo as Jericho makes his entrance, “The Bad Apple” Bryan Keith right behind him. They go to the ring, Jericho waves and says, “Hi, guys~! Congratulations on five years of Dynamite.
“And congratulations to the brand new television deal that AEW just signed. We made a lot of experts look like real idiots, hahahaha.” The fans cheer that at least. But there wouldn’t even be a new TV deal, or an AEW, if not for Chris Jericho, so you can thank him for that. The fans boo again but Keith wants a “Thank You, Chris!” chant. Say it, dammit! The fans do chant, “Thank You, Chris! Thank You, Chris!” Jericho thanks them, and says not only is this the fifth anniversary of Dynamite, but it’s the 34th anniversary of Chris Jericho’s pro-wrestling debut! To think he’s gone from Alberta, Canada to right here in Philade- Oops.
Jericho corrects himself, it’s Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. But to also be an eight-time world champion is an unbelievable feeling. Right now, at Jericho’s stage in his career, he wasn’t quite as focused on winning titles as he is on nurturing The Branches, such as The Redwood and Bad Apple, and bringing as many young talents into the Jericho Vortex as possible, and of course getting as much TV time as he can. But over the past few weeks, Jericho had an epiphany. First, he headlined a sold out Arena Mexico, then he beat Mark Briscoe. So now, it is time Jericho brings a new Era of Jericho. No more Ocho, time for the Nueve!
So Mark Briscoe, Jericho is challenging you for the ROH World Championship, at WRESTLEDREAM! The fans are torn on that idea but Jericho asks if Mark accepts. Does he? Mark Briscoe makes his entrance! Flanked by The Conglomeration, The Sussex County Chicken makes his way down to the ring. Mark steps into the ring, grabs himself a mic, and he tells his boys to stand down, this is between him and Jericho. Jericho has his guys do the same, so it is just them in the ring. Mark tells Jericho that Papa Briscoe brought his sons up to behave like men. And to be a man is to not make excuses.
Mark could stand here and make excuses about how he had Jericho beat in New York City. Jericho was toast! He was fried chicken! The only way Jericho won on the ROH World Champion is because Big Bill snuck up on Mark, guzel’d him around the throat, and choke slammed him through a table so Jericho could roll his limp ass onto Mark. The fans cheer that! Mark says he could say that, but he won’t use the excuse because it was Tornado Tag rules. The choke slam was as legal as a wristlock. Jericho pinned Mark in New York, 1-2-3, in the middle of that ring. And y’know what else? Behaving like a man entails that you call it like it is. Call a spade a spade.
And here we are on Jericho’s 34th anniversary, so Mark will call Jericho what he is: Chris BAH GAWD Jericho has, over the past four decades, been one of the most influential and finest pro-wrestlers on the planet. Fans do cheer that. And Mark will tell you, that works out good for him that Jericho pinned him. Logically speaking, Jericho should get the title match. Because Mark would love to put that notch in his belt, if you know what he means! See, it is also very coincidental that the word of the day is, “consequential.” Because consequentially speaking, now Mark will get to put a legendary head on his wall! Because when Mark beats Jericho at WrestleDream-
Whoa, whoa, hold on. That is a tall task. Mark wants to beat the Learning Tree? He wants to beat the legendary Chris Jericho? He doesn’t think Mark can. Mark can’t beat Jericho! Maybe Jay could have. The fans don’t like Jericho going there. “But everybody knows… You’ll never be as good as Jay was.” The fans boo more, and Mark UPPERCUTS Jericho! The fans fire up now, but Jericho has Bill & Keith stay back. Mark tells Jericho if he wants to go there, he better get his brother’s name out of his mouth. At WrestleDream, Jericho gets a Briscoe style ass whooping! Mark accepts the challenge, and THAT is consequential!
The fans fire up as in just 10 days, we see Mark Briscoe VS Chris Jericho 1v1! Will The Sussex County Chicken not just cut down The Learning Tree, but burn it to ashes?
BREAKING NEWS for Rampage!
With Briscoe VS Jericho set, there will also be further redemption for The Conglomeration after last week’s Collision. Orange Cassidy & Kyle O’Reilly take on Big Bill & Bryan Keith 2v2! Will Freshly Squeezed & The Violent Artist cut down The Branches before worrying about The Learning Tree?
Darby Allin speaks.
The Relentless One sits among junked cars, and he says, “I was 19 years old, I used to ride this metro bus, The 150, from Kent Station to Seattle. I used to ride it all the time, just daydreaming. This one night, I was in the back of the bus, and I felt something hit my head. And I turned around and I saw these three guys laughing at me. And it just donned on me that they were taking turns spitting at me. And I turned around and I just tried to mind my own business. There was three of them and one of me. And it was killing me inside that I wasn’t doing anything about it. And then I felt it again.
“And finally, I just turned around, and I got right up in the guy’s face, and he said, ‘What’re you gonna do about it, ya little b*tch?’ And I noticed he was holding up this switchblade. And I looked at him and I said, ‘Well, it looks like I’m getting stabbed tonight.’ I lunged toward him, and it didn’t take long for everybody on the bus to break up the fight. But it felt so good. It felt so good to actually do something about it. Weeks ago, when Jon Moxley said I wasn’t ready to be the face of AEW, all I could see is those three guys in the back of the bus. I wasn’t just gonna lay down and do nothing. I would rather get stabbed.
“You live by the sword, you die by the sword. I put everything on the line against Moxley, I was so fixated on proving him wrong. That night, it was supposed to be me and Bryan going on to WrestleDream. I keep saying that I’m ready to be the face of company, and I think people are starting to lose faith in me. The scary part about it is, I’m starting to lose faith in myself. But what else am I supposed to do? What else can I do except fight? I am going to be at Tacoma Dome, October 12th, at WrestleDream. Anybody in the AEW locker room, I’m putting out an Open Challenge. Anybody wants to build their name off of Darby Allin, step right up.”
Darby smashes a brick against a car, and he shouts he has nothing left to lose! October 12th, WrestleDream, Open Challenge. Step up. Darby is feeling desperate, but will that desperation be what he needs to reach that next level?
AEW shares news about Taz.
Earlier today, as the former Suplex Machine made his arrival, he was assaulted by unknown assailants in the parking lot. Taz was checked out by medics, referred back to his physician in New York, so he is returning home at this time. AEW wishes Taz a speedy recovery, and hopes to find out who attacked him and why.
Hangman Page VS Juice Robinson!
Speaking of new levels, the anger and rage has been increasing for this Black Hat Cowboy, and it doesn’t look to be stopping. Hangman won the Lumberjack Strap Match, then went after Rock Hard Robinson for the lashes he delivered. Will Hangman ever stop lashing out against the AEW roster? Or will Juice have to beat him to a pulp first?

Juice snapmares and KICKS Hangman, then brings out a strap! Juice LASHES Hangman with it! Hangman writhes and Juice grins as he storms back up.

Juice borrows a drink form a fan to SPLASH Hangman with it! Hangman sputters, and Juice HEADBUTTS him! Juice RIPS a “Hangman is FIRE” sign, then ROCKS Hangman. Then Juice borrows a fan’s popcorn to CLOBBER Hangman with it! The fans fire up as things return to ground level, and Hangman goes to ringside. Juice is munching some popcorn now, and then puts Hangman in the ring. The bell finally sounds to make this a match, and Juice takes off his own belt! He says time to hang the Hangman! Juice CHOKES Hangman with the belt, the ref counts, and Juice stops at 4. Hangman gets the belt away, and then he kicks low!
Hangman bumps Juice off buckles, stomps a mudhole, but the ref counts. Hangman lets off, soaks up the cheers and jeers, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Hangman stalks Juice to ropes, CHOPS him, then whips corner to corner. Juice reverses, and he FLAPJACKS Hangman down! Juice then hurries to clinch and RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP!

Hangman laughs, then he KNEES Juice in the side! And BOOTS him!
Juice flops out of the ropes, and Hangman drags him back up. Hangman hits an APRON DDT! Juice flounders away while Hangman soaks up the heat. Dynamite returns to single picture as Hangman storms up the corner. But Juice trips him up first! The fans rally as Juice climbs, and Juice fires up! Juice goes to the very top, brings Hangman up to join him, and SUPER DUPER PLEXES! Both men writhe while down on the mat and the fans fire up. Juice and Hangman rise, and then run up! Juice LARIATS Hangman, ELBOWS Hangman, then CHOPS Hangman! Juice JABS! JABS! JABS! Then CHOP!

PROGRAMMING NOTE for Dynamite!
Next week will be a very special Title Tuesday edition of Dynamite! Tuesday night will be golden starting 9 PM Eastern, so make sure your DVRs catch it!
Renee Paquette is in the parking lot.
Renee says we continue to celebrate the five year anniversary of Dynamite, and she is waiting on an AEW original, Jack Perry. The Scapegoat bus pulls up, and he steps out. But then Katsuyori Shibata steps in! And with text to voice, Shibata “says,” “You and me, the TNT Championship, WrestleDream.” Perry says he’ll think about it. The Scapegoat leaves, but then he sucker punches Shibata! Then he CLUBS Shibata, RAMS him into the front of the bus, and says, “I accept!” The Scapegoat punks out The Wrestler, but will he come to regret that?
Bryan Danielson speaks.
“All day long, I’ve had one sentence running through my head: F Jon Moxley. But then I realized, Mox, that no matter how bad you want it to be, this isn’t about you. This isn’t your world championship. Hell, this isn’t even MY world championship! This is AEW’s World Championship! FIVE YEARS! FIVE YEARS! And we’ve broken the entire system that wrestling was built on! This is where the best wrestle! And that is why I challenged Okada. Okada, me and you have wrestled twice. You’ve won one and I won one. You’ve broken my arm and fractured my orbital bone, but you have never broken my spirit.
“Tonight, we find out who’s the best! Your title’s only on the line for the first 20 minutes, but every single minute of this match, my title’s on the line, and my career’s on the line! And I wouldn’t want it any other way. AEW, this is for you.” The American Dragon is all fired up, but will he be able to set fire to the Rainmaker?

Backstage interview with Hook.
Renee is with the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil and asks him about the attack on his dad, Taz. Hook is fuming, and he punches a wall. He says if someone starts s*it with his family, he will find them and take ’em out! Who would be foolish enough to #SendHook into a rage?
Christian Cage speaks.
“Pittsburgh, sit down and shut your mouths while I conduct my business. And the business at hand is the five year anniversary of Dynamite. And if all of you were in awe of everything I’ve accomplished in the first five years, you haven’t seen anything yet. Because I am the Face of TBS now and forever. I am the reigning, defending, undisputed next AEW World Champion. I am the Patriarch, I am your Father Figure. And soon enough, I will have it all, hook, line and sinker.” Captain Charisma has spoken, but will he look to strike during tonight’s main event? Or will he wait to ruin everyone’s WrestleDream?
Backstage interview with Mariah May.
Renee is now with The Glamour, and says it was quite the “tumultuous” Grand Slam last week for her. Mariah successfully defended the AEW Women’s World Championship against Yuka Sakazaki, only to have Willow Nightingale to come to Yuka’s defense after. And then, the return of Mina Shirakawa was short as she then returned to Japan to team with Toni- Mariah says Willow is the living definition of “Failing up.” How many titles does Willow get to lose? Willow lost the TBS Championship, gets into the Owen Hart Cup. Willow loses the tournament to Mariah, so she gets the CMLL Women’s title.
Willow then loses the CMLL Women’s title, and now she’s best friends with Yuka and just syphons herself a world title shot? Wow! Masterful plan, Willow! That’s shady. Just look at her, smiling all the time, trying to hide how pathetic she really is! But speaking of Willow, she storms in, confronting Mariah on all that trash. Mariah’s the shady b*tch here! These two start arguing, and Mariah says shut up! Mariah SLAPS Willow! Willow SLAPS back! Security rushes in, as does Christopher Daniels, and these two are separated. The Fallen Angel has Mariah taken away and tells Willow to calm down. But will the Babe with the Power take out The Glamour the first chance she gets?
Private Party VS The Iron Savages w/ Jacked Jameson!
While Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy could not win the AEW World Trios Championships with the help of their amigo, Komander, they’re not going to give up now. A new theme song for a new attitude, will the party start to turn up? Or will they be forced to sip sauce and live hoss with Bulky Bronson & Beefcake Boulder?
The teams sort out, and Zay runs up on Bronson to fire hands! The fans rally, Bronson shoves Zay, but Zay bobs ‘n’ weaves. Zay BOOTS Bronson, DROPKICKS him, and Bronson staggers. Quen joins in to DOUBLE DROPKICK! Bronson falls, but Boulder runs in! Private Party dodges to DOUBLE DROPKICK! Boulder stays up and goes wild! Boulder runs up but Private Party DUMPS him out! Boulder staggers, Quen FLIES! Down goes Boulder at the ramp! Stokely Hathaway is watching this and seems to like what he sees. Bronson reels Zay in, back suplexes, but Zay lands out! Zay ducks ‘n’ dodges, DROPKICKS, and Bronson goes to a corner.
Zay kips up, fires up, and the fans are with him! Zay tags Quen, and then Zay runs up. Bronson BOOTS Zay, then goes up the corner, but Quen runs up! GIN & JUICE!! A supersized serving, Quen covers, Private Party wins!
Winners: Private Party, by pinfall
From the upset win on the very first AEW Dynamite to this shockingly fast win here tonight, Private Party’s new attitude is paying off! Zay gets a mic to get something off his chest. What’s up, Pittsburgh? But at the beginning of this year, these two walked in and said “New Year, New Champs,” and Zay swears to God, they meant every word! He doesn’t care if his hand’s bashed or if his shoulder’s messed up. Quen doesn’t care if his shoulder is just back from injury, Private Party WILL BE AEW World Tag Team Champions! Zay hopes The Young Bucks are listening. Private Party beat them once, and they promise they can do it again!
In fact, Zay is feeling froggy. Is Quen feeling froggy? Quen says yeah, he’s feeling it! They’re ready to jump! Young Bucks, FOOLS, why not do this right here and now?! The fans fire up, and here come the EVPs! Matthew & Nicholas Jackson appear from center stage, and Nick says, “Listen. You can’t have an anniversary show without the two people who built this damn company, your EVPs, Matthew & Nicholas Jackson!” Matt takes the mic to tell Private Party that they seem super confident. Matt has an idea. He heard there is a substantial overrun planned for tonight, so they have time for this particular idea.
How about The Bucks test that confidence? Why not put the tag titles on the line against Private Party, RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, IN PITTSBURGH!? The fans love that idea! The Bucks head down the ramp, and Matt wants to make sure there’s still a ref. Oh, wait, no, The Bucks have “limited dates,” so they’re not wasting one on a crap town like Pittsburgh. The fans boo as The Bucks go back up the ramp. The Bucks “thank” everyone, but then Jack Perry attacks Private Party! The fans boo, but n ow it turns into a 3v2 as The Bucks DO get in the ring! But wait! Here comes Shibata! The Wrestler isn’t done with Perry!
The fans fire up as Shibata storms into the ring, but The Elite goes running! Shibata dares Perry to get in, but here comes Christopher Daniels! He says hey, Private Party has been a thorn in the sides of The Bucks since the very beginning of Dynamite, and Daniels for one would love to see Private Party piss The Bucks off. So here’s an idea! SIX MAN TAG: Private Party & Shibata VS The Elite, Friday Night Rampage here in Pittsburgh!! The Elite is pissed, but Daniels’ Interim EVP powers force their hand! Will Shibata be partying with Quen & Zay after they take it to The Elite?
Backstage interview with MVP.
Renee is with Montel Vontavius Porter, officially welcomes him to AEW, and understands he has a big announcement. MVP says yes, he does have an announcement, and what better occasion than the five-year anniversary of Dynamite. He’d like to take this moment to introduce to all of us- Wait, Prince Nana steps in. And he says last week, MVP was talking real spicy about him and Swerve. And another thing! Nana sees a lot of people are walking around here forgetting something. They’re forgetting that Nana used to be a wrestler himself! And yeah, he’ll lace up his boots right here in Pittsburgh just for MVP!
MVP says that sounds like a complaint. MVP doesn’t deal with complaints. But uh, he does. Who? SHELTON BENJAMIN!? MVP formally introduces AEW to his business partner, and the President of the Complaints Department, Mr. Shelton Benjamin. Nana is stunned, and Shelton says nice to meet you. He then takes Nana’s mug and drinks the coffee. Shelton says that’s pretty good. Nana is beside himself, but is he about to step into the ring with the Gold Standard?
AEW World VS AEW Continental Championships: Bryan Danielson VS Kazuchika Okada!
The American Dragon said it himself that he and The Rainmaker are 1-1, and why not make the tiebreaker part of the Dynamite anniversary? But as Bryan also said, this is only a double title match for the first 20 minutes. Can Bryan end this quickly to then bring two titles to Tacoma? Or will Okada wait out that first period to then strike and completely change AEW WrestleDream?
The introductions are made, both belts are raised, and we see who stands tall to end this historic night!
The bell rings and we’re on the clock. The fans chant “YES! YES! YES!” with literally just one guy going “NO! NO! NO!” Okada and Bryan stare down, then slowly approach. The fans fire up more, and then they back up. The fans get even more fired up, and the two circle. They feel things out, tie up, and Okada powers Bryan back a step. Bryan pushes Okada back, the fans duel, and the two go back and forth. Okada powers Bryan to a corner, the ref counts, and Okada lets off slowly. Bryan turns things around, the ref reprimands and counts, and Bryan lets off cleanly. The fans cheer and the two reset.
Bryan and Okada circle again, feel out a knuckle lock, and they tie up. They go shoulder to shoulder, push each other in a “Test of Wills” as Bryan would put it, and Okada slips around to waistlock. Bryan wrenches out, wristlocks, but Okada rolls, trips Bryan, and has a toehold. Bryan goes for the ARMBAR, but Okada blocks. Bryan shifts to a short arm scissor, but Okada fights up.

Bryan waits on Okada, and Okada takes his time leaving the ropes. Okada dares Bryan to try something, but then he backs off to ropes again. The ref reprimands Okada for stalling but Okada says okay, hold on. Okada steps back in, circles with Bryan, only for Okada to again back away to ropes. Bryan is annoyed, but he calls Okada out. Okada steps back in, circles with Bryan, and they tie up. Bryan headlocks, shifts around, hammerlocks, then headlocks. Okada hammerlocks but Bryan drop toeholds. Bryan waistlocks but Okada goes to the ROPEBREAK! Bryan lets off and Okada bails out. Okada claims hair pulling as he paces outside.

Okada rolls to wrench and wrangle Bryan, but Bryan slips around to wrench back. Bryan has the arm for an ELBOW BREAKER! Bryan keeps the wristlock but Okada snapmares. Bryan rolls through to hammerlock Okada on the mat. Okada sits up and shifts around, but Bryan wrenches for another ELBOW BREAKER! Bryan wristlocks, but Okada CLUBS, snapmares, and chinlocks. But Bryan slips out to have the hammerlock back, and Dynamite goes to break.
Dynamite returns and the fans chant “YES! YES! YES!” as Bryan waits on Okada. Okada and Bryan circle, feel things out, and they knuckle lock.

Okada goes out, grabs a chair, but just leaves it on the floor before he whips Bryan hard into railing! Okada then brings Bryan back around, to whip into more railing!
The fans rally, Okada refreshes the ring count, and Okada runs up to BOOT Bryan over railing! The fans fire up and duel as Bryan flounders.

Okada roars, but he sees Claudio, too. And then Pac is on the other side of the crowd! Okada drags Bryan up, ripcords again, but Bryan ducks! Backslide, BRYAN WINS!!!
Winner: Bryan Danielson, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
The fans are thunderous, but Claudio just smiles. But then Okada ripcords to RAINAMKER!! Okada is a sore loser, and he flips off Claudio, and he flips off Pac! He blames them for distracting him just enough, and now he storms off with his Continental Championship. But wait, Claudio & Pac slither into the ring! The Swiss Superman & The Bastard drag Bryan to his feet, because here comes Moxley! Bryan tries to fight free but Pac & Claudio hold on tight. Moxley has a mic to say, “You think this is about me? Huh? Is that what you said? You think any of this is about me?! Let’s get something through your simple minded, blueberry pickin’ little brain!
“NONE OF THIS is about me! NONE OF THIS is what I wanted. I’m fighting for something much bigger than myself. Everything I’m gonna do is cuz I have to, cuz no one else will, no one else can. If any of this was about me, I’d have put you outta your misery years ago!” Moxley drops the mic, paces around, but here comes Yuta! Yuta runs off the entire BCC, with a hammer in his hand! The fans are fired up for Yuta as he dares someone to step in! So Moxley steps back in! Moxley and Yuta stare down, but is Yuta gonna take a hammer to Moxley? Yuta paces, gets fired up again, and dares Moxley to swing on him first!
Moxley doesn’t, so Bryan CLOBBERS Moxley! Claudio goes after Yuta, grabs the hammer, and Marina Shafir gets Moxley outta there while Claudio and Pac brawl with Bryan and Yuta! Yuta & Bryan turn the tables, and Claudio bails! Pac follows kind, and the fans fire up again! Yuta grabs a mic to tell Claudio & Pac, “I am sick and tired of the two of you treating me like a child. I’m not a child, I am my own man! I can make my own decisions, and I can fight my own fights. And speaking of fights, next week, Title Tuesday, if the two of you wanna get to Bryan Danielson, you’re gonna have to go through me, too.”
The fans fire up as Yuta drops the mic, but Bryan picks it up. Bryan says next week, Title Tuesday, Bryan & Yuta VS Claudio & Pac, what does everyone say? The fans say “YES! YES! YES!” and Tony Khan sends word that YES, it will happen! Will Bryan stand tall just days before WrestleDream? Or will the faction he helped create be his undoing?
My Thoughts:
An awesome Dynamite for not just to commemorate five YEARS of AEW, but to also hype up WrestleDream more. Though, the direction of a few stories are a little odd to me. It’s mostly the Don Callis Family story, as I thought Konosuke Takeshita was heading for the Continental Championship. But after an awesome match of Ospreay VS Ricochet, where we got all the hits, Konosuke has to “ruin” it all by going after Ospreay. I suppose Ospreay VS Konosuke was an inevitable match so why not do it, and it could be what makes Kyle Fletcher choose between Ospreay and Callis. Hopefully, he chooses Ospreay, but I suppose that depends on who is even Don Callis Family. Maybe Hobbs returns?
Speaking of returns, Jay White’s return was of course happening here, what with Hangman beating up the Gunns and then beating Juice. Great brawl that went up into the crowd and great match, but Hangman of course cheats to win. Great return for Jay White, but uh, what was the point of Darby Allin mentioning a switchblade in his story and Nigel having a line about a knife fight? Something about that felt like Jay White foreshadowing for Darby VS White, but now I’m thinking it’s Hangman VS White, and Darby is open to face just about anyone for WrestleDream. Not sure who it’ll be, but I’m sure it’ll be someone great.
Great match from Britt VS Serena, great win for Britt to get back in action again, but it was curious that Mariah was out there at all. If that’s foreshadowing that Britt will get back to the world title, a bit heavy handed and early for it. Mariah still has Willow, which we got a great promo out of the two of them, and then there’s also Mina Shirakawa. I suppose Britt can be thrown in to further stretch out this story of Mariah and Mina, so that there is more and more evidence of Mariah going down a dark path and Mina unable to tolerate that. But honestly, with how badly AEW has paced women’s division stories before, I kinda want Mariah VS Mina to happen sooner rather than later.
Very good promo from Mone with MVP, it feels like the “Hurt Syndicate” is going to expand into more than just the men’s division, something WWE really should’ve tried with the Hurt Business. Maybe The Elite should think to counter offer so that Mone is their female member, and that could be a fun story. Shelton Benjamin debuting in AEW is great, but I also love that Nana brought up his wrestling career in WCW given a classic image of Prince Nana has been circulating online. Though, I don’t see Nana facing Shelton. But hey, Hurt Syndicate picking on Nana would definitely motivate Swerve to accelerate his return, and Swerve VS Shelton could make a great WrestleDream match.
The return of TV Time with Chris Jericho was good stuff, because for one, Jericho took a jab at Eric Bischoff over Bischoff claiming the coming AEW WBD TV deal was BS. But also, it wasn’t just Jericho rambling on, he got to business calling out Mark Briscoe, and Mark Briscoe responded. I did not think Jericho was gonna bring up Jay Briscoe like that, but that does immediately add heat to this. I really hope Briscoe whoops Jericho, we do not need “The Nueve” nor do we need the return of “Ring of Jericho.” Plus, something needs to happen where Big Bill screws up, Jericho gets pissed, there’s the falling out they teased weeks ago.
Very good promo from Christian Cage just to keep his cash-in on our minds. I feel like something has to again go screwy so that Christian can’t snipe the title from Bryan or Moxley, especially with this story with Kip Sabian still needing to be settled. And we’re getting quite a curious story for Hook. They have Taz get off-camera beat up, because trust me, that’s not a shoot, that’s kayfabe. They wouldn’t even have Hook on camera tonight if it was legit. But I feel like the culprit is either The Kingdom showing their true colors over that loss to Hook, or someone they want to move up into a bigger spotlight.
Good promo from Perry and Shibata to officially set up their TNT Championship match, and good stuff building a tag title match. Private Party having a new theme song to go with new attitude and new gear, all good stuff, but I did not think they’d beat The Iron Savages so quickly. Good promo for Private Party to call out The Bucks, and great little brawl to give us a Six Man Tag. I feel like someone on Private Party is taking that pin, and we’ve still got go-home week to see who stands tall before WrestleDream. Shibata is great but I feel like Perry finds a way to “survive” like he did with Suzuki. As for Private Party, I would love for them to win, but The Bucks probably pull something sneaky to cheat them.
And then great bookending of the night with this Blackpool Combat Club story. Great opening promo though I wish they had subs for Marina’s part. We got a great promo from Bryan to not just hype up tonight and the PPV but also to sum up the five years of Dynamite. And of course, an awesome match from Bryan VS Okada, even if it seemed a bit odd to have two titles on the line while keeping their separate rules intact. I just knew when this was announced that it’d go past 20 minutes so Okada’s title would be safe, and then Bryan would find a way to win. That’s what happened, but it was still awesome, and now Bryan leads the series 2-1.
However, I should’ve figured BCC would make a move on Bryan after. Great promo from Moxley to further tease what’s going on with this change in him. Yuta showing up to run BCC off and stand with Bryan was great, too, and their tag match for Title Tuesday next week will be good stuff. I would think that Yuta takes the pin, though, so that Claudio & Pac can call him the weak link and we’ll get into a scenario where the Trios Championships are on the line, Pac & Claudio having to find a new third man while Yuta has to go and find two partners, and we’ll get a really good match there.
My Score: 9.1/10
