Jon Moxley w/ The Blackpool Combat Club VS Tomohiro Ishii!
The Maniac is not in any good mood after his team lost on Sunday, but he isn’t gonna sit back and stew in it, either! He wants to go after the Stone Pitbull himself, will he be a one man wrecking crew? Or will Ishii just add another loss to Moxley’s record?
The two are forehead to forehead the moment they’re both in the ring, and the ref tries to keep the peace. The two finally back up, the bell rings, and they’re forehead to forehead again! Ishii CHOPS, Moxley CHOPS, repeat! The fans “WOO~” with every CHOP! Moxley gets annoyed as the CHOPS keep going but Ishii doesn’t back down. In fact, they speed up! CHOP after CHOP after CHOP, and fans are thunderous! Moxley CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS again! Moxley runs, RAMS Ishii but Ishii returns to RAM Mox! They RAM and RAM and RAM, Moxley ducks the enziguri but Ishii ducks the Penalty Kick!
Fans fire up and the two get up again. They now throw forearms back and forth! The fans rally and duel, the forearms keep going, and Moxley roars! Moxley ROCKS Ishii but Ishii ROCKS him back! Ishii whips, Moxley reverses but Ishii comes back to CLOBBER Moxley! Fans fire up and Ishii storms up on Moxley. Moxley SOBATS! And BITES Ishii’s nose! The ref counts, Moxley lets off, but Ishii BITES Moxley’s forehead! The ref counts, Ishii runs, but Moxley runs him over! Wheeler Yuta cheers but fans are torn. Moxley gets the arms to DRAGON STOMP! Fans rally and Moxley covers, TWO!
Moxley drags Ishii up, throws him out to the floor, and Moxley paces. The ref watches Yuta and Claudio, and the ring count climbs. Moxley soaks up the cheers and jeers but Ishii rises at 4 of 10. Ishii goes to the apron but Moxley DECKS him! Moxley then DIVES and wipes Ishii out! Fans fire up while Moxley walks around and soaks it all up. The ref checks Ishii, he’s okay to continue, but again the ref warns the BCC to keep their distance. Ishii dares one of them to do something, but wait! Eddie Kingston is here! The Mad King surprises everyone as he storms down to ringside! He grabs a chair and he makes the BCC to back off!
Hamilton is all fired up but the ref tells Eddie to hold on. Moxley goes out to confront Eddie and they argue as Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Eddie dares Yuta & Claudio to do something, and then Ishii fires forearms on Moxley! Ishii whips but Moxley reverses and Ishii hits railing! Moxley brings Ishii around to put him in the ring. Moxley drags Ishii to the apron, turns him, APRON NECKBREAKER! Moxley waits on Ishii to get back in while Eddie continues to egg on Claudio. Moxley drags Ishii back in, throws forearms, and has him in a corner. Moxley looms over Ishii, talks trash, then stomps him. Ishii eggs Moxley on so Moxley stomps him more. Moxley then stands on Ishii’s head on the ropes! The ref counts, Moxley lets off, and Eddie coaches Ishii.
Eddie and Moxley argue again, but Moxley stands Ishii up to clothesline! And clothesline! And forearm! Moxley fires off on Ishii, eggs Ishii on, and Ishii drags himself up, and Moxley throws another forearm! But Ishii stands bolt upright! Moxley throws more forearms but Ishii leans into them! Ishii backs Moxley down this way, then DECKS him! Moxley sits up in a daze and Ishii storms up to him as Dynamite returns to single picture. Ishii hoists Moxley up top, climbs up after him, and then SUPERPLEXES! Ishii crawls to the cover, TWO! Moxley hangs tough, but Ishii runs. Moxley swats the lariat, but Ishii comes back with a SOUTHPAW!
Moxley fires a forearm, but Ishii roars! Ishii fires a forearm, but Moxley roars! The forearms go back and forth again, fans rally up behind Ishii, and neither man is stopping! They do slow down a bit, but then just get a second wind! Fans fire up as this keeps going, even as Moxley starts to wobble. The shots are slower, but they are harder! They go no guard, and Ishii boxing elbows! Moxley ROLLING ELBOWS and down goes Ishii! The ref is checking but Ishii is somehow still in this. Moxley drags Ishii up, for a GOTCH PILEDRIVER! Cover, TWO?!? Ishii survives and fans are thunderous! Moxley has some blood from his eyebrow but he sits Ishii up.

Ishii eggs Moxley on, they stand and headbutt! Blood is going from Moxley’s forehead to Ishii’s! And then they throw SLAPS! Ishii HEADBUTTS, roars, and runs, but into a spin and PARADIGM SHIFT!! Cover, TWO!??!?! Moxley can’t believe it, his frustration visible through that growing crimson mask! Moxley vows to end this and he drags Ishii up. Moxley underhooks again, DEATH- NO, Ishii wrenches out, spins Moxley around, and steals PARADIGM SHIFT!??
Ishii runs to LARIAT!!! Cover, TWO!!!! Moxley survives but Ishii roars! Ishii suplexes, but Moxley slips out to CUTTER! But Ishii’s right up?! SLIDING LARIAT!! Cover, TWO!!!!

Winner: Jon Moxley, by pinfall
The Maniac redeems himself through blood, sweat and tears, but Eddie mockingly applauds. Moxley shows respect to Ishii, but blows right past Eddie on the ramp. What is next for the BCC as their war with The Elite and all the rest continues to heat up this Summer?
Renee Paquette is backstage.
Ontario’s own says as the teams for the Blind Eliminator Tag Tournament are continuing to be announced, one team we know for sure is MJF and Adam Cole. A ton of question marks around that team, and here’s one right now. Adam Cole has just arrived, but then coming in fast is MJF! “Hey, what’s up, dude?” MJF says hi to Renee and then tells Cole congrats on getting “sick” for Forbidden Door. Wish he’d thought of that. Genius! MJF, Cole was actually sick. Hah, yeah, sure. MJF feels he and Cole got off on the wrong page. Especially with this Blind Eliminator Tag Tournament coming up, this is an opportunity for Cole.
MJF says obviously, Cole couldn’t beat him for the Triple B. Not really Cole’s fault, no one is on the level of the Devil. But MJF is not ashamed that if there’s anyone close, it’s Cole. So just imagine what they could do together as a unit? They could run the entire company! So little idea: MJF & Cole bond a bit this week. They hang out like bros. What’s Cole say? Wait, MJF wants to “get to know” Cole or something? Yes, quite literally. Cole says sure, why not. But do not touch him. Right, right, boundaries are cool. Let’s head out now! No, hold on, Cole is talking. He’s gonna go say hi to a few people right now, and he’ll see Max around.
MJF stops Cole from leaving but apologizes for touching his arm. It’s just MJF has a little gift for Cole! The driver throws MJF a shirt. Since they’re gonna become AEW World Tag Team Champions together, here’s some team merch! “Better Than You BAYBAY!” Available now! Cole is annoyed and leaves, MJF says “See you later, brochacho! What a guy.” MJF is two-faced as usual, but will this team be an undisputed hit? Or an undisputed disaster?
Backstage interview (sorta) with The Blackpool Combat Club.
Renee asks Moxley, “What the hell is going on with you two out there? What is happening? This is insane!” Moxley says yeah, that was some BS. Eddie’s gonna run up on him like he needs three guys to win a match? Like Moxley doesn’t have respect for Ishii? But then Eddie barges in! Eddie says Mox has talked enough! But Moxley says sorry he has friends and training partners. Renee wants them to stop but Eddie says he saved Moxley in that 10 Man Tag. Moxley says he doesn’t need that. Eddie tells Moxley, “No one kicks your ass but me. You understand that? I got your back, but you’re with this scumbag (points at Claudio) and I’m supposed to sit back and chill?”
Moxley says who cares about Chikara and some BS in the past. Eddie says he cares! Renee wants them to stop but Moxley storms off. Renee tells Eddie that he better fix this, she is DONE! Renee heads out, too, and Eddie is at a loss for words. What is Eddie supposed to do to make up for this?
BREAKING NEWS for the Women’s Owen Hart Cup match tonight.
Since Adam Cole was sick on Sunday, it makes sense that sadly, Britt Baker is out sick tonight. Her match with Ruby Soho will be delayed to next week, will The Doctor be ready for her cup finals rematch with the Runaway?
Six Man Tag: The Jericho Appreciation Society VS Orange Cassidy, El Hijo del Vikingo & Keith Lee!
Daniel Garcia is not AEW International Champion, and he claims that it was 3v1 in the Fatal 4 Way! He is bringing Matthew Menard & Angelo Parker as back-up, will the sports… enner-tay-ners get back up? Or will Freshly Squeezed, the AAA Mega Champion and the Limitless One make them #BaskInTheirGlory?

The JAS keeps losing, and the Limitless One stands tall with the two champions. Will anything stop any of these three men as the Summer heats up?
The Elite speak backstage.
Brandon Cutler confirms, they are live, so Hangman starts off. “Tonight, live on Dynamite, the Young Bucks, Hangman Page, fresh off a victory at Forbidden Door, tonight, we have a trios open challenge! So we are looking for talent-” But then in walks The Dark Order. Uh, guys, what’re you doing? They’re literally live right now. Take it from the top! Matt says the same thing, an open challenge to any three men who think they- John Silver says hey, if they want three men, then count it! Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds, John Silver! And they’re gonna kick your asses! Oh, is that so? Hangman has a chuckle and says they can up this to a 12 Man or something,
No, no, no. This is serious. The Dark Order wants to fight The Elite. You can’t just not talk to them for months and then everything will be okay, Hangman. So they’re here to fight. Hangman says he’s sorry but Uno says wow! He’s sorry! You think that’s enough? Hangman hasn’t contacted them, hasn’t hung out with them. He left them! Abandoned them! For The Elite! And Hangman’s sorry? Hangman says it isn’t about the Bucks, or Dark Order, it was about fighting The BCC! The Elite needed his help. What was Hangman supposed to do? Is he responsible for The Dark Order? Is he their babysitter or something?
Is that what Hangman thought this was? N-No, that’s not- Yeah, they were with you at your lowest point, Hangman. But tonight, they’re not friends anymore. They’re opponents. The Dark Order heads out, what is the Cowboy to do?
Backstage interview with Chris Jericho & Sammy Guevara.
Renee is with the Wizard & Spanish God ahead of their main event Tornado Tag match against Darby Allin & Sting. But Chris said tonight, he’s tapping into the Painmaker. Jericho says “For the first time ever, just a few days ago at Forbidden Door, Sting and Chris Jericho were in the ring together, once again, for the very first time. But this is a little bigger than Forbidden Door, isn’t it, Sting? Jericho and Sting should be on TBS, right? Poetic justice! Should be commentated by Tony Schiavone, just like it should’ve so many years ago. But Sting, you said you wanted more time with Chris Jericho. You needed to spend more time with me in the ring.
“Well guess what, Sting? Tonight, you get your nightmare. That’s right, it’s not a dream, it’s a nightmare. Because tonight, I’m going to go deep inside myself, okay? Let’s go to the primordial ooze of Chris Jericho. Let’s bring out the Painmaker, Sting. You know about being dark. You know about how desperate things can get when your back is up against the wall. Tonight, you’re not facing Jericho. You’re facing The Painmaker. You wanna get dirty, Sting? Let’s get dirty. Let’s put that white paint in the dirt ’til it comes up a bloody mess. Right, Sammy?” Sammy nods, and Jericho tells Sting that he is getting all the time he wants with The Painmaker. “See you out there.”

The fans can’t believe it but Blood & Guts returns! July 19th, in Boston, it might just be a massacre! Who survives when these vicious forces step into the double cage?
AEW hears from the Men’s Owen Hart Cup participants.
The ROH World Television Champion says, “The importance of this tournament, it goes beyond what you might imagine. You see, a tournament by itself is a true crucible, a test of a man’s ability in the ring. It’s these formats, these scenarios, where I thrive. ” The Savior of the Backbreaker says, “It is an honor to be included in the Owen Hart Tournament. Samoa Joe, you’re a bad man. But I need you to know this: I need this one.” Powerhouse Hobbs says, “All roads lead to the Owen Hart Tournament. But for you, Dustin, it’s the end of the road. Prepare to witness a man who is unmerciful, and full of destruction.”
The Natural tells Hobbs, “You said you’re going to be unmerciful. For 35 years, I’ve been unmerciful. And in the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, you’re going to remember my name!” Rock Hard Robinson says, “The Juice is fixin’ to run loose all over Absolute Ricky Starks!” But the Absolute says, “The charisma, the good looks, the ability in the wrestling ring. Those are things that you wish you had, Juice. That’s why in the Owen Tournament, I’m just gonna do to you again what I’ve already have, and that is absolutely embarrass you.” Who out of these six men join CM Punk in the semifinals?
Adam Cole is waiting backstage.
MJF said he wanted to hang out, so “Where the hell is this guy?” Roddy walks over and says hey to Cole. Roddy also says Cole can’t trust MJF. Cole knows he can’t, that guy’s a maniac. But Cole is just playing him. But what if MJF watches the show back, he’ll know. There’s no way MJF- MJF walks over! MJF says hey to Cole and “generic white guy,” but says he’s just joking. First off, Strong looks great, freakin’ jacked. But MJF says that it is bad enough he’ll have to wrestle every week, you expect him to stick around and watch the whole thing? Let’s get outta here, this place sucks! MJF gets in his SUV, and Cole says MJF definitely does not watch AEW.
Cole and Strong hug it out and Cole wishes Strong luck against Samoa Joe. Cole joins MJF in the SUV and MJF says it’s party time! Just how much can Cole milk out of the Devil’s arrogance?
“Jungle Boy” Jack Perry is here!
But then he says to “turn that garbage off,” and fans boo. Jack says everyone ruined that song for him to the point where we’re never hearing it again! And boo all you want, it does not change anything. He has a car waiting in the back to take him to the airport, and all these fans are stuck here with the wildfires. Fans boo more as Jack goes up the steps and into the ring. Plus, Jack is still young, cashing fat checks, and banging the hottest chick in this entire place! He winks to Anna Jay through the camera, and then asks Toronto a question. Fans boo more, this is Hamilton! Jack says relax, he as joking.
But now, did Jack turn on Hook? Or did everyone else turn on Jack? After everything Jack has done, that he has given to AEW, and after being robbed of not one but TWO world titles, the fans expected Jack to sit here and watch some “entitled, second generation little prick dangle his championship in my face?” Fans boo more but Jack says the funny thing is, the FTW Championship isn’t even officially recognized! That is why Jack doesn’t recognize Hook. Fans chant “We Want Hook!” but Jack calls Hook a fraud! Jack never needed Hook, and #JungleHook was only special because of Jack!
The last time Jack was in a tag team, they were world champions. Hook was lucky to ever stand next to Jack in the ring. Fans boo more but Jack tells them to shut up! And whether or not the FTW title is recognized, Jack knows what it means to Hook. And what it means to his family. Fans call JB an A-hole as Jack glares at Taz. That’s for you, Taz! And that is exactly why JB is going to take the FTW title from Hook. For the record, he hears us all telling him that he messed up, that Hook’s gonna kill him. But when Jack gets his hands on Hook, he will beat the- UH OH! Here comes Hook! And Taz says here it comes!
Hook rushes the ring and Jack bails out! Hook pursues him through the crowd! They go to the back! Will the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil catch Jack? Wait, cameras catch up and Jack throws things in Hook’s way! Then he DIVES into his car and it takes off! Hook is furious, when and where will they have this out for the FTW Championship?
Sammy Guevara walks out on stage.
Fans cheer the Spanish God as he has his cue cards. Dynamite goes picture in picture so Sammy has the cards speak for him. “You may have to fight a battle more than once to win a war. Sting… Darby…” Sammy holds this sign up high for everyone to see. “Once again, we’ll do battle. But tonight, WE’RE winning this war! Darby Allin, my eternal adversary… We’re destined to fight… FIGHT FOREVER!” Good plug for the game, too. The cards become souvenirs as Sammy continues with “Tonight! In the main event! It’s not ‘Let the fight begin.’ It’s ‘Let the fight continue!'” Sammy tears that one, and then revels in the cheers. But will Le Sex Gods survive the Tornado Tag tonight?
Ruby Soho w/ The Outcasts VS Alexia Nicole!
The Runaway doesn’t get her revenge on Britt Baker for last year just yet, that will have to be next week. But will Ruby use this match with Hamilton’s hometown hero as a tune-up for The Doctor?
The bell rings and Storm already creeps up on Alexia. The ref reprimands and Storm backs off. Ruby hits an STO! Then she rains down fists! Ruby lets off to mock the D M D. Ruby stomps Alexia, bumps her off buckles, and stomps away. Fans boo and the ref counts, but Ruby lets off at 4. Ruby tells the ref to shut up, and then she digs her boot into Alexia. Ruby mocks the fans applauding, then drags Alexia up to TOSS her out! Storm is there to get cheap shots in while the ref argues with Ruby! Saraya does, too! Ruby goes out after Alexia, brings her up, and pushes her into the ring. Fans rally, Ruby stalks Alexia, and hits a SAIDO!
Ruby drags Alexia up to SAIDO again! Cover, but Ruby lets off!? Saraya takes someone’s DMD sign and rips it up! Ruby pulls out a glove and she’s mocking Britt more! Ruby steals the Rings of Saturn, and the LOCKJAW!! Alexia taps, Ruby wins!
Winner: Ruby Soho, by submission
The Runaway has sent a very big message to Britt, but the Outcasts send a message to the entire roster by spraying an L on Alexia. Ruby says, “Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, Canada’s finest here was not my intended opponent for the evening, Britt Baker, DMD. And I suppose I have you all to thank for that. Because of your filthy, disgusting, germ-ridden country, she’s sick! Look, don’t worry, don’t worry. Next week, she’ll be able to challenge me in the first round, because rookies pretty much get what they want around here, whether they show up for work or not. I mean, her boyfriend, Adam Cole, didn’t even show up for his match at Forbidden Door.”
Adam and Britt used to be “the power couple,” but uh, let’s just hope those two don’t have kids. They’re all gonna be weak little bastards. Now, Britt, get your head outta the toilet and look at Ruby. When Ruby first got here, before their match at Arthur Ashe Stadium, Britt said Ruby didn’t know who Ruby was. But Ruby wasn’t lying when she said she did. Because Ruby loves who she is now! She loves who she is standing beside The Outcasts! But does Britt know who Britt is? Because she’s a shell of her former self! She used to be one of the hardest working people in this business! And she still has fans to show for it.
But then the fans crap all over someone if they sneeze in the wrong direction, don’t they?! Britt, look. Really look. “Last year, you barely beat me in the finals on your best day. And since then, collectively, we have taken anything and everything that has ever meant anything to you.” They took the world title, they picked off Britt’s “army of skanks” one by one, and next week… Ruby takes Britt’s opportunity to be two-time Queen of Harts away, until Britt is left with exactly what Britt is: NOTHING! Is the Runaway going to run away with this tournament?
Team QTV speaks backstage.
QT Marshall says “Sorry to rain on your parade, Daddy Ass & The Acclaimed, but last week was all about the debut of Johnny TV.” John Morrison says Johnny TV is now in production! And this Friday on Rampage, The Hardy Party finds out that QTV and Johnny always make hits! Harley Cameron mocks Isiah Kassidy’s moan, but it sounds more like Urkel. Okay, sure… But will Johnny TV be canceled before it even begins?
BREAKING NEWS for Rampage!
On top of Johnny & QT VS Matt Hardy & Isiah Kassidy, we will see Taya Valkyrie VS Hikaru Shida, Shawn Spears VS The Blade, and an ROH World Championship match! Claudio Castagnoli VS Komander!
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!

Tornado Tag: Chris Jericho & Sammy Guevara VS Darby Allin & Sting!
Le Suzuki Gods worked together well enough on Sunday at the Forbidden Door, but they could not make it a win. And Jericho noticed the face paint Sting had on at the time, so he took that as a challenge. Will bringing back the Painmaker be what Jericho needs to end The Icon? Or will Sammy’s cards be right about these four fighting forever?
The bell rings and Darby SHOTGUNS Sammy outta the ring! They brawl outside, leaving Sting and Jericho in the ring. Jericho has his baseball bat but Sting says they don’t need that. But Jericho smacks Sting on the arm! Painmaker wants a bat fight, so Sting gets his bat! They clash like swordsman! Sting backs Jericho to a corner, but Jericho kicks low. So Sting JAMS Jericho! And CLUBS him! And then CLACKS the bat outta Jericho’s hands! Darby runs in, COFFIN SPLASH on Jericho! Sting runs to STINGER SPLASH! They mug Jericho, but Sammy FLYING CUTTERS Darby! Sting glares at Sammy but Jericho CLOBBERS him!
Jericho & Sammy stomp Sting outta the ring, and the brawl continues outside. Jericho whips Sting hard into barriers! Sammy brings out a ladder! Fans fire up as Sammy puts that in the ring. Jericho RAMS Darby into barriers! And then SMACKS him with a chair! Darby writhes, Jericho soaks up the cheers and jeers, and Sammy brings Darby around. Fans want tables but Darby is sent into steel steps! Darby crawls, Sammy positions the steps and Jericho helps him. They then fetch Darby and bring him up, APRON BACK SUPLEX! Darby writhes and Sammy drags him off. Sammy & Jericho double whip Darby at the steps!
Darby hits steps, tumbles up and over and hits railing! Jericho & Sammy high-five, and then Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Fans rally for Darby while he writhes. Jericho goes out after Darby, brings him up, and Sammy joins in. They mug Darby around the back end of the crowd, but Sting returns! Sting RAMS Jericho into barriers! And off chairs! Sammy headlocks Darby and brings him around the way, and CHOPS him against a fan! The fans fire up and Sammy drags Darby away. Sammy ROCKS Darby with forearms, then digs his knees in against barriers. Jericho CRACKS Sting with someone’s drink! Sting still kicks back and rakes Jericho’s eyes! Sammy snap suplexes Darby to the bare concrete! Sting SMACKS Jericho with a chair!
Jericho SMACKS Sting with a fan’s sign! And punches him with it! And again and again and again! It’s a picture of Sting, and Jericho makes Sting eat it! The ref reprimands but there’s not much else that can be done about this. Jericho CLUBS Darby, he and Sammy mug Darby against barriers, and Sammy CHOPS! Darby sits up on the railing, Jericho BLASTS him down to the floor! Dynamite returns to single picture as Le Pain Gods soak up the heat. Sammy then FLYING CUTTERS Darby to the floor! Sting DECKS Jericho! Sammy puts Darby in the ring, goes after Sting, but Sting CLUBS him down!
Sting throws hands but he’s 2v1 against Sammy & Jericho, But Darby goes up, SUPER COFFIN DROP on Sammy!! Fans lose their minds as Sting SPLASHES Jericho against railing! Darby looks under the ring, and he brings out a TABLE! Fans love it, as Sting brings out another TABLE! They set those tables up by ringside, but these tables aren’t quite up to code. Even so, Darby goes into the ring and he sets up Sammy’s ladder from earlier. Sting SMACKS Sammy with a chair! Sting puts Sammy on the tables, and Darby climbs up?! Sting holds the ladder, then climbs up to join Darby! Even Darby’s unsure about this, but Sting wants to do it!
Darby says alright, and he hops down to hold the ladder. Sting adjusts, howls, and SUPER STINGER SPLASHES!! Only one table breaks, but maybe both Sting and Sammy just broke! Fans lose their minds, the ref checks Sting and Sammy, and somehow Sting is stirring! Darby DIVES onto Jericho! Darby puts Jericho in, gets his skateboard, and SKATEBOARD STOMPS Jericho!! Cover, TWO!?!? Jericho survives but Darby keeps his focus. Darby runs in, but is sent into the ladder! Jericho gets the ladder, and he SLAMS it on Darby’s back! Jericho grabs the ladder again, picks it up, and he SLAMS it on Darby again!
The Painmaker puts the ladder on top of a corner, and he goes back for Darby. Jericho CHOPS Darby, whips him corner to corner, but Darby reverses! Jericho runs into the ladder battering ram, face first! Jericho writhes, Darby runs and springboards, but Jericho CRACKS him with the skateboard! Jericho, busted open as he is, aims and JUDAS EFFECT!! But Darby falls outta the ring! This has to end in the ring, so Darby is safe. But wait, Sting is up!?! Sting is in the ring, dragon sleeper, but Jericho powers out! Takedown and Jericho has the legs! WALLS OF JERICHO!! Jericho shouts through his crimson mask as Sting endures!
Sting crawls, reaches out, but not for ropes! He grabs Floyd the Baseball Bat! Jericho drags Sting back from the corner, and Sting CRACKS him with the bat!! “This is Awesome!” and Sting runs in at Jericho, STINGER SPLASH!! Sting keeps moving, but into a CODE BREAKER!! Cover, TWO!?!? Sting survives and fans are thunderous! Jericho aims again, but Sting ducks the elbow to hit SCORPION DEATH DROP!! Cover, TWO?!? Jericho survives but Sting hurries to fire forearms! Sting runs, but into a BOOT! CODE- NO! Sting catches Jericho to the SCORPION DEATH LOCK!!! Jericho endures, but he TAPS! Sting & Darby win!
Winners: Darby Allin & Sting, by submission
Jericho suffers his first loss in AEW as The Painmaker! And that is already two losses for Jericho against Sting! Will he still come back for more?
My Thoughts:
A great fallout/follow-up episode from Dynamite here. For one, great stuff in the BCC VS Elite story. Great opener from Moxley VS Ishii, with Eddie joining in given his history with everyone. And how great that Renee got dragged into this, too, because while Moxley wants Eddie to get over the past and Eddie wants Moxley to honor it, Renee wants them both to make up already. Great stuff out of Dark Order VS Elite, too, as Hangman again gets stuck between the heat his mutuals have with each other. And I am very, very happy to see that this is going to end with Blood & Guts, but of course it’ll be on live TV. That really could go either way, but I feel like Elite winning makes the most sense. The Elite can move on, maybe pass the BCC onto Eddie for a feud there.
Great interactions from MJF, Cole and Strong. It does make sense that MJF kayfabe is so high on himself that he doesn’t care about the product, so he’ll never know if people talk trash on him on air. I do really like the two-faced behavior from MJF, it is hilarious. And good promos from all the participants in the Men’s Owen Cup Hart. I’m still thinking Joe beats Strong to then face Punk in the next round. And we didn’t really get all the other teams in the Blind Eliminator Tournament, but the ones we did learn about… Um, okay I know that since this is pro-wrestling, the teams aren’t really shoot random, but c’mon, guys. Disguise it! Don’t just slap Swerve & Keith back together, that’s a dead giveaway! At the same time, I do look forward to the interactions there.
Great Six Man Tag of Keith, Cassidy & Vikingo VS JAS, and I figured the Faces would win, that ends up giving Keith and Cassidy momentum going into the tag tournament. Darby & Cassidy is also not that well disguised as we’ve seen those two team together before. It should’ve been Cassidy teaming with someone he doesn’t get along with, like Kip Sabian. Though, that might parallel MJF and Cole too much, one being champion and the other wanting that title. Maybe it should be Shawn Spears. They’re in Canada, fans still like the “TEN! TEN! TEN!” and I’d love to see Spears interacting with Cassidy. Plus, it’s not like Darby needs this tournament for screen time, give that to someone who really needs it.
Really good Heel promo from Jungle Jack, and really good Heel behavior as he runs away from Hook. That was an awesome dive into the back of his SUV to get outta there. Jungle Boy VS Hook for the FTW title is going to be great stuff, and I would think JB wins. It can be through cheating, but it’d be a great new chapter for both him and Hook. Hook’s first loss, his first feud that’s really personal because JB made him think they were friends, and Hook can come back even stronger after the loss. And decent promo from QTV and Johnny. They’ll have a good match and good win off Hardy Party, probably because there will also be Ethan Page shenanigans. And I would think The Acclaimed then come out to diss track on QTV to set up their Six Man Tag.
Good adjustment from Britt not being able to make it, Ruby got a lot of great insults in through the squash match. And good promo after the match, though the fans didn’t seem to care. This will add more heat to Britt VS Ruby next week, and I still feel The Outcasts have something to do with the finish. And great stuff out of Jericho & Sammy VS Darby & Sting tonight. Good promos, both Jericho talking and Sammy using his cue cards, and that tornado tag match was wild.
Though, that table spot from Sting was rough… To me, that was another example of wrestlers needing to take physics classes just so they understand what they’re asking of themselves. They should’ve had the second table in front of the first, cuz then Sting would’ve hit them both evenly. But in the end, Darby & Sting winning did seem like the right choice. Jericho has lost to Sting in a Six Man Tag, then in 2v2, so he will surely demand a 1v1 match to truly settle things between them, and it will be great stuff.
My Score: 8.7/10

Deonna LARIATS in the corner, LARIATS again, then short arm LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Anna stays in this but Deonna stays focused.

Winner: Anna Jay, by pinfall
Deonna is furious, but maybe she should’ve let the ref throw this out. In the end, Anna gets a real win over Deonna, will this help her get back towards some title scene?
Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.
Lexy Nair is with her ROH Minion buddy, and notes that Billie is the first ROH woman entered in the first ever WrestleDynasty International Women’s Cup! Billie, what an opportunity, how are you feeling? She is excited! This is the second chance she’s been waiting for, and- Red Velvet steps in to say more like NO chance. Because see, Velvet is also in that match, and well, she already beat Billie. So her odds are looking really good. But then in steps Leyla Hirsch. And she says lucky for them both, because Leyla’s in this! Leyla beat Velvet once, and just looking at Billie, Leyla knows she can beat her.
Oh but then in steps the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena! The Minion Overlord defends her bestie and Billie, and says it is finally time for the Athena World Tour! She is the fourth participant, even though, why does she have to qualify for HER show? Athena has beaten Velvet, she’s beaten “Small fry” Leyla, and well… Billie Goat, we all know Athena dog walked her! Velvet says Athena shouldn’t talk to Billie like that. Billie says “Cupcake” doesn’t need to defend her. Things are getting tense already, who wins their way into WrestleDynasty’s massive crossover match?
Backstage interview with QT Marshall.
Lexy is now with QT and says later int he Zero Hour, it is QT VS Big Boom AJ. QT took AJ out last night after the weigh-in, will it be the same here tonight? QT wants Lexy to remember, pronounce it “Mar-shall.” And yes, in QT’s home state of New Jersey, the best part will be QT remembering why he left. It’s a dump! Especially Newark! But AJ is also from New Jersey, and he properly represents this dump. Whether AJ is on the Tonight Show, on TikTok, or here in AEW, he is the epitome of someone from The Garden State: an embarrassment! He’s worse than Bruce Springsteen himself!
And tonight, in a sold out crowd that QT drew all himself, it will be like going to his high school reunion and showing how he is more successful than everyone else. And he’ll do that by walking to the ring, staring down AJ, and bringing the doom! Will QT Marshall make himself the boss of the Zero Hour? Or will it be a BOOM for all of New Jersey when QT loses?
New Year’s Day is a NEW ERA for AEW!
Starting Wednesday, January 1st, 2025, AEW Dynamite will be SIMULCAST on Max! And even bigger, it is the return of Fight for the Fallen! All proceeds go to helping victims of Hurricane Helene in Ashville, North Carolina.

Winner: Buddy Matthews, by pinfall
A very opportunistic strike from Buddy Matthews, because The House Always Wins! Will that be true as Malakai Black & Brody King go for the AEW World Tag Team Championships? Or can Private Party make it out of Full Gear still golden?

Mercedes Mone & Kamille arrive backstage.
The CEO is upset that her title defense has to be here in disgusting Newark, NJ. But since the cameras are here, she has something to say to Kamille now. This last month has been super frustrating. Actually, more like embarrassing! Kamille came out to the crowd, pandering for sympathy?! Mone wouldn’t even be in this mess if not for Kamille in the first place! Kamille shows up wanting to attack Kris Statlander, and then she loses to her?! And let’s not even start on her bad driving! Is Kamille stupid or just dumb? Kamille tells Mone to watch herself. Mone asks if she gave Kamille permission to speak. Does Kamille not know who Mone is and what she’s done for this business?
Mone is The CEO, the greatest woman’s champion o fall time! And tonight, Kamille can just watch from catering as Mone shows how a real woman gets the job done. Watch and learn. Mone leaves, Kamille rolls her eyes, but clearly Kamille wishes she could use both arms right now. Will the Brickhouse just have to watch Two Belts Mone lose one of those belts all on her own?
AEW World Tag Team Championships Fatal 4 Way: Private Party VS The Outrunners VS The Kings of the Black Throne VS The Acclaimed!
Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy really only just got theses titles, and their first defense is the biggest match anyone could ask for! Will the party keep on going through tonight? Or will another team use these steep odds to their advantage?
Platinum Max of course has a diss track on deck! “Platinum Max on the mic, so bright, you gon’ get a tan. House of Black made my ears bleed with their shi**y band! Outrunners stain couch covers. I leave stains on your stout mothers! Private Party gonna go from haves to the have-nots. The only shots they take are back shots! I know you checkin’ the vibe because everybody loves the Best Wrestler Alive!” Bowens is confused by Caster’s change in catchphrase, and then Caster just throws the mic at him? Bowens has to pick it up and refocus. “NEWARK, NEW JERSEEEEY~! The Acclaimed have arrived! Scissor Me, Daddy Ass!” And Billy does~!
But with that, Private Party is last but certainly not least! Pyro goes off for the official start of Full Gear, and “Oh my God, is that Private Party?” Ladies line the ramp with glow sticks as Quen & Zay make their entrances, bringing back “SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!” as their theme! The introductions are made, the belts are raised, as is the difficulty level. Will Quen & Zay still be on top of the game with odds like this?
All the teams stare down, but Caster quietly backs off. However, in this kind of Fatal 4 Way, only two teams can be legal at a time. Quen steps up for the champs, and Malakai steps up for the House. They circle while the fans rally up, and they tie up. Malakai arm-drags to armlock, but Quen rolls back. Malakai hammerlocks but Quen sits down, rolls, and headscissors! Malakai shrugs that off but Quen armlocks. Malakai wrangles Quen to a wristlock but Quen rolls and arm-drags free! Malakai trips Quen, Quen boots him away, and then Quen kicks. Malakai blocks, flips Quen, and sits down cross-legged! The fans cheer and Quen tells Malakai to get up.

Quen lands out, kicks, but Malakai easily blocks it! Quen shoves Malakai, Malakai ELBOWS Quen down! Malakai drags Quen up, Bowens tags in off him, and the fans fire up as Malakai and BOwens stare down. Bownes rusn up on Quen, and he turns hip toss into hip toss!
Zay tags in, runs up, he and Bowens block arm-drags! Then arm-drags cancle out! Bowens whips bu tZay arm-drags! Bowens mule kicks, front kicks, runs and FAMOUSERS! The fans fire up as “EVERYONE!

Cover, TWO! Zay is tougher than that but Truth tags Turbo Floyd. The Outrunners whip Zay to a corner, then ELBOW, snapmare, and NECK SNAPPER! Zay staggers up and Turbo scoops to SLAM!

Turbo fires up to fire hands but Brody ROCKS Turbo, then CHOPS him! But Turbo is powering up! Turbo flexes, runs, but Brody LARIATS Turbo down! The fans bark for Brody as he drags Turbo to the outside, and then throws him into railing!

The Outrunners and Acclaimed regroup and they stare The House down. The fans rally up as it is a 4v2 brawl! Truth & Caster mug Brody while Bowens & Turbo TOSS Malakai! Private Party joins the party and they beat Brody down. Bowens goes up and everyone holds Brody open! SCISSOR ME TIMBERS~! The fans fire up, but then Caster BOOTS Truth!

The ref and The Acclaimed have to sort that out, but the fans are on Bowens’ side! Billy tells them to focus, they spot Turbo and DOUBLE SUPERKICK! The Acclaimed argue about who should be legal, but Caster says just pin him! This is the loophole of this Fatal 4 Way! Bowens does cover Caster, but Quen SWANTON BOMBS it apart!

Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.
Lexy Nair is with Freshly Squeezed and says this past Wednesday, The Death Riders sent a clear message. How is that affecting his mindset tonight? Cassidy says yes, they sent a message. But tonight, “we” send a message back. AEW sends a message back! Private Party started it. They’re AEW Day One, and they’re the AEW World Tag Team Champions. Because AEW means everything to them, just like it does to Cassidy and to all the fans here tonight. How could Moxley possibly understand that? Because Moxley never needed AEW. Cassidy wouldn’t exist without AEW. So tonight, Cassidy shows that AEW doesn’t need Moxley!
Cassidy takes the power, the symbol of what AEW represents, and puts it in his backpack as the NEW AEW World Champion. Cassidy heads out, will he make this all become a reality?
MJF VS Roderick Strong!
The Wolf of Wrestling tried to worm his way out of another situation by setting obstacles in front of his enemies. However, The Savior of the Backbreaker still made it through three matches to earn this opportunity and finally shutting MJF up. Will Roddy break MJF’s back and make him humble? Or will Maxwell Jacob Friedman prove he is still better than everyone else, and we know it?
The bell rings and MJF bails right out! The fans boo but MJF grabs a mic. MJF tells that the disgusting poors should keep their mouths shut! Roddy, you wanna know why the people like you?

Roddy falls to the floor and MJF smirks as he leaves Roddy behind.
The fans boo but MJF goes back to put Roddy in the ring. MJF storms in, he drags Roddy around, and MJF stands on Roddy’s hand. “You’re a bum! Not a single effin’ person in here cares about you!” MJF stomps Roddy’s hand, then he tells the fans to shut up. MJF reels Roddy in, but Roddy wrenches out to CHOP! CHOP! MJF dodges but Roddy CHOPS again! MJF BITES the bad hand! MJF then WRINGS Roddy into the corner! MJF soaks up heat while mockingly checking his “watch.” MJF says this is too easy, then he goes back for the bad hand. Roddy endures, fights around, but MJF wrangles him to the mat.

Roddy whips but MJF YANKS the bad arm! MJF runs up, but Roddy BOOTS! ENZIGIRIS! And HALF NELSON- NO, MJF wrenches out to have the bad hand. Roddy slips around, and he HALF NELSON BACKBREAKERS after all! Both men are down and the fans fire up. Fans actually duel, seems New Jersey likes a devil like MJF. But Roddy CHOPS first! And ELBOWS MJF, then CALF KICKS! Roddy keeps moving and he LARIATS MJF down!
The fans fire up as Roddy fires elbow after elbow, then he torture racks! MJF reaches out, but Roddy REVERSE LAWN DARTS! JUMP KNEE! ANGLE SLAM! Cover, TWO! MJF survives but Roddy huffs ‘n’ puffs. The fans rally, Roddy hauls MJF up, but MJF wrenches and WRINGS the bad arm! Both men are down and the fans rally again. Roddy and MJF go to opposite ends, and Roddy is on the apron. MJF storms up, reels Roddy in, but Roddy stops the Heatseeker! MJF runs back in but Roddy TOSSES him! Roddy then WRECKS MJF with a dropkick! Roddy hurries out and he whips MJF into railing! And then he CHOPS!
Roddy lifts MJF up to RAILING BACKBREAKER! The fans fire up with Roddy and he drags MJF up. Roddy puts MJF into the ring, aims from a corner, and he runs up to SICK- NO, MJF dodges! Roddy tumbles, he hurries after MJF, but MJF pops him up to MULE KICK! MJF goes up, mocks Adam Cole, but Roddy YANKS him down for a BACKBREAKER! Both men are down again and the fans fire up!

END OF HEARTACHE!! Cover, ROPEBREAK!!! MJF survives by a literal foot! Roddy is beside himself but the fans rally up again. Roddy hobbles to ropes, MJF sits up, and Roddy runs back in! But MJF bails out!

Roddy swings, MJF ducks and whips, but then Roddy dodges! ENZIGIRI, torture rack, and RACK DROP! Then a fireman’s carry, for a GUTBUSTER DROP! Roddy keeps moving, SICK KICK hits!! The fans fire up and Roddy keeps on MJF! But MJF suplexes for a BRAINBUSTER! Both men are down and the fans are thunderous! The ref checks both men, they’re okay to continue, and Roddy crawls to a cover. TWO, and MJF has the FUJIWARA ARMBAR!
MJF THRASHES the arm, RODDY TAPS!! MJF WINS!!!
Winner: MJF, by submission
MJF grins, and he’ll surely play this off as another “easy dub.” But then MJF decides he isn’t done, and he grabs a chair! MJF grins as he storms back into the ring, and he threatens the ref! The ref backs off, and MJF puts the arm around Roddy’s arm! The fans boo as MJF stands on the steel! MJF runs to STOMP the chair!!! Roddy writhes, but ADAM COLE is here! Cole runs in but MJF runs away! The Undisputed Kingdom is also here, Taven & Bennett check on Roddy’s arm while Cole glares at MJF. Cole vows he will get MJF, that SOB! Kyle O’Reilly rushes out here, too, and he gets mad at Cole!
Kyle says this is what he was talking with Cole about on Wednesday! Kyle didn’t want this obsession to hurt someone else, and it has! Kyle helps Roddy away to the back, but does he have a point? Should Cole have stopped this before it began? Or will Cole make sure it ends with him and MJF?
AEW TBS Championship: Mercedes Mone VS Kris Statlander!
The CEO is still NJPW Strong Women’s Champion on top of AEW TBS Champion, but the walls might be closing in. Mone knows she has Strong Style Evolved in a few weeks, but is she taking the Galaxy’s Greatest too easy? Or will the #BornAgainKristen once again be The Face of TBS?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is really the greatest TBS Champion today!

Rampage returns and…
Lexy Nair welcomes us back, while also welcoming us to the official Full Gear Zero Hour weigh-in. Please welcome first, QT Marshall! The fans boo as QT makes his return to AEW TV, and he shows off the “DOOM” logo on his track jacket. QT steps into the ring and now Lexy welcomes out Big Justice and Big Boom AJ! The fans cheer as the Costco Guys are here, giving out high-fives and fist bumps! QT is already annoyed but Lexy says before we get started, do either of them have something to say? QT steps up to say yes, he does! Enough with the “Boom,” first off! Tomorrow night, QT brings the doom!
QT told AJ 20 years ago that he didn’t have it. 20 years later, AJ still doesn’t have it! The fans boo but AJ just shrugs that off. AJ tells QT that QT’s been waiting those 20 years to get AJ in the ring. But AJ’s been waiting ever since QT tossed those double chunk chocolate cookies! The fans cheer that! But AJ says hold on, hold on. He’s got a special surprise for us. He wants someone real special to be at Full Gear to ring the bell when AJ rings QT’s bell and he Power-Booms QT through this ring. QT asks who. AJ says there’s only one guy that can be. They scratch their chins, and yes, it’ll be THE RIZZLER!!
QT is seething but the fans love it! QT gets to business by taking off the jacket and the sweatpants. QT steps on the scale, flexes, and we get the numbers on the tron: 229 pounds flat for QT! QT is all fired up, he’s bringing that heavyweight build. The fans fire up for AJ, “Bring the Boom! Bring the Boom!” Wait, what? 550?! AJ’s big but not THAT big. QT says this must be why he’s Big Boom AJ. Maybe he should laugh off the double chunk chocolate cookies. Big Justice steps up! And he says we all know QT rigged the scale! Right? Right? But see, that won’t matter when his dad brings that BOOM on Saturday night! Is QT ready?
QT steps up but AJ gets in QT’s way. QT takes a swing! AJ ROCKS QT first! AJ makes sure Big Justice is okay, but then QT hits the DIAMOND CUTTER! The fans boo but QT says that’s gonna be the DOOM! Will QT not care who or what Big Boom AJ brings to Full Gear? Or will he slammed on the mat for The Rizzler?
AEW takes a closer look at the AEW World Tag Team Championship Fatal 4 Way.
Malakai Black says, “Eight men, four destinies intertwined.” Anthony Bowens recaps: The Acclaimed, Kings of the Black Throne, Outrunners, and Private Party, fighting for the titles. Marq Quen says he and Zay worked SO damn hard for these titles. But The Outrunners are hard as a rock! Malakai says The House has a “trigger full of promises to deliver.” Bowens says they have everyone’s number, but The Outrunners feel they have nothing to lose! Malakai & Brody say come one, come all, for all shall perish! Zay promises he & Quen will do whatever it takes to leave Full Gear still your AEW World Tag Team Champions, and that’s a flex.
Juice Robinson VS The Butcher!
While everyone else, such as the Bang Bang Gang’s fearless leader, Jay White, gears up for Full Gear, Rock Hard Robinson is just looking to get a win. Butcher almost shoves him off the apron, will Butcher cause this Collision Cowboy to go off the rails? Or will it be Guns Up for the Reading, Pennsylvania Gold Members?
The bell rings and Juice ties up with Butcher. They’re in a deadlock and quickly go to the mat. They also quickly get back up, and Juice powers Butcher to a corner.

And that’s one for Bullet Club Gold! Will Jay White look to do just as much damage to Hangman Page? Or will the Blackhat Cowboy still be number one with a bullet?
PROGRAMMING NOTE for next week!
There will be no Friday Night Rampage next week, because it will be a BACK-TO-BACK Rampage & Collision Saturday night! Make sure your DVR is ready for three hours of AEW action!
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.
Lexy is with La Mera Mera and brings up how next week will be an ALL LUCHA Rampage. That must be exciting. Rosa is beyond excitement! It is about time they get some lucha libre to spice up Rampage. Atlantis Jr, Hechicero, and the return of Mystico! C’mon, now! Well what about Rosa? Yes, what about Rosa? Rosa hasn’t had a true lucha match in awhile, but why not? An open challenge for any luchadora or female wrestler that wants after La Mera Mera! In steps Harley Cameron, wearing a Hologram mask, and putting on a robot voice. “Greetings. I am famed luchadora, Harley-gram, the female counterpart to Hologram.”
Rosa is trying not to laugh as “Harley-gram” officially accepts the open challenge. Rosa tells Harley-gram that she looks familiar. Like a certain someone she beat two weeks ago. Does not compute with Harley-gram. Okay, fine. Compute this: Next week, Rosa will yank her cord and shut her down! OH SHUT UP! What? Uh… Danger! Danger, Will Robinson! Danger! “Harley-gram” runs off and Rosa asks if this is really happening. Rosa sighs, but will she just have to reboot Harley back to factory settings?
Ricochet speaks.
“I have had my eyes on the International title since I debuted in AEW. And Takeshita has cost me my chance at becoming International Champion on more than one occasion. I was the last person to pin the International Champion, and I plan on doing it one more time, at Full Gear. At Full Gear, Takeshita finds out what the world already knows: That Ricochet is not from here. Ricochet is outta this world!” The King of Flight is determined to dethrone The Alpha. Will Ricochet become The One & Only International Champion?
BREAKING NEWS for the Full Gear Zero Hour!
Anna Jay lost last week in her last chance championship match, but she also rejected the offer of The Vendetta. Now Deonna Purrazzo is looking to teach Anna why that was a mistake. Will The Virtuosa make sure Anna’s never The Star of the Show? Or will she learn why Anna’s still The Queenslayer? Then, we see Dante Martin, The Beast Mortos, Komander and Buddy Matthews compete in what will surely be a fast and furious Fatal 4 Way! Who wins some big momentum, and possibly a spot in the Continental Classic?
Six Man Tag: The Conglomeration VS The Dark Order!
While Tomohiro Ishii is aiming for the ROH World Championship next Wednesday on Thanksgiving Eve, he, Mark Briscoe & Rocky Romero don’t mind building up momentum in the Trios Division. Will the Stone Pitbull, Sussex County Chicken & Azucar be rolling towards titles? Or can Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds & John Silver remind everyone that The Dark Order is good enough?

A great battle from these factions, but it is Strong Style that wins out! Will this happen again when Ishii goes 1v1 with The Learning Tree? Or will Chris Jericho make sure the Age of Nueve lasts forever and ever?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here for the go-home to Full Gear, but it was definitely just a go-home. They’re even ending with the November Rain music video from last Saturday as I type this. Good promo from Ricochet to hype up his match with Takeshita, but that’s still a toss-up to me. A part of me does want Ricochet to have the International Champion so Takeshita can enter the Continental Classic and go after Okada like he was supposed to do just a month ago. It really depends on what the Don Callis Family story is going to be with Ospreay and Fletcher, as The Don Callis Family isn’t losing everything at Full Gear.
Great opening tag of Mariah & Mina VS Nyla & Harley, though I really thought that was going to be the main event. But at the same time, of course Mariah & Mina won. No tease for anything at Full Gear so maybe they’ll wait to surprise us with Toni Storm or something tomorrow. Harley becoming “Harley-gram” just to get a rematch with Rosa was hilarious stuff, as does that “All Lucha Rampage” episode they’re hyping up. But oh look, next week is back-to-back Rampage and Collision on a Saturday just to try and undercut Survivor Series. It won’t matter, I’m still watching WarGames and leaving AEW for after, but it’s nice of them to do everything on one night.
Very good filler match of Juice VS Butcher, that was a strong return to singles action for Juice. Very nice Zero Hour matches but I kinda wish they’d given us a segment on TV to set up Deonna VS Anna rather than just announcing it. Maybe there was something social media had but I’m still not someone who follows all the socials. And that Fatal 4 Way is awesome, can’t wait to see who comes out of that a winner. Good promo overall from Big Boom AJ and QT Marshall, but I’m not sure it needed to be a weigh-in. A press conference style segment would’ve been fine, or even a contract signing, but I guess they just wanted to set up QT’s “lay off the cookies” joke. QT stands tall with his cutter taking down AJ, so you can bet AJ dooms QT in the Zero Hour.
Also great Six Man Tag main event, though I don’t think I’ve ever seen a main event without entrances. Great win for Conglomeration, though, but yeah, Ishii sure ain’t winning the ROH World Championship.
My Score: 8.8/10
