Backstage interview with Matt Sydal.
Earlier today, Dasha was with the Third Eye Sage and brings up Sydal getting on the mic to call out Samoa Joe. Tonight’s the night. Sydal says that’s right, he took things into his own hands because that’s how he does things. Every single break he’s had in this business has been because he grabbed a mic and asked for what’s his. He’s been on the heels of Samoa Joe since he first started in ROH. Sydal is not a kid anymore, and he’s not scared of Joe anymore. Sydal is the only man in this locker room willing to grab the mic and call Joe out and say Sydal will be the NEW TV Champion! Tonight IS his night!
Backstage interview with Samoa Joe.
Also earlier today, Dasha spoke with the ROH World TV Champion and brings up Sydal’s challenge. What’s going on in Joe’s head? Joe says of course he accepted Sydal’s challenge, why wouldn’t he? He needs to teach a lesson. Tonight we learn what happens when ambition outstrips common sense. Joe tells Sydal that he understands Sydal’s ambition is to be a champion here in ROH. But common sense dictates that such a path does not go through Joe! Joe tells Sydal that tonight, “you learn that lesson.” Will Sydal regret making Samoa Joe as his champion of choice?

Backstage interview with The Varsity Athletes.
Mark Sterling tells us that he “secured” time for the Premier Athlete in the ring to get something off his chest. Dasha goes to Nese and Nese says those fans out there are in for a real treat. Just what does that mean coming from the ripped wrestler from Ridge, New York?
The Iron Savages w/ Jacked Jameson VS Rhett Titus & Tracy Williams!
Beefcake Boulder & Dirty Bulk Bronson are back again, ready to rip into the ROH Tag Division. Will they be large and in charge against former ROH Tag Team Champions? Or will The Professional & The Hot Sauce show they’re stronger than that #SavageSauce?

Jameson celebrates with his beefy buddies as they get a truly big win, but will they be heading for the Lucha Brothers and those ROH World Tag Team Championships?
Backstage interview with The Workhorsemen.
Dasha is with JD Drake & Anthony Henry ahead of Henry’s match. Henry asked for this time, but JD says the last thing you want is to talk off to a pissed off Anthony Henry. He starts getting all over the place, doesn’t know what to say, but what JD wants to say is that FTR goes and sticks their nose in Workhorsemen business when they had no reason! Henry says the Shatter Machine, the Big Rig, whatever it’s called, they hit with it and now his face is messed up! JD knows FTR is not here tonight. They never show up when you want them to. But guess who is here? That “chicken,” Mark Briscoe!
Henry says that Mark and FTR are boys, so how about Mark atones for the sins of FTR? When Henry sees Mark, he will do everything he dreamed of doing to FTR all to Mark. That means it’s time to punch in, and knock out! Will the Saint of Augusta avenge himself and JD against the Sussex County Chicken?
Diamante VS Teal Piper w/ The House of Heathens!
The Cuban Diamond has been shining since showing up in ROH, but will she prove herself worthy of gold? Or will the other half of the House of Heathens make up for Deimos’ defeat?

Winner: Diamante, by referee stoppage
That’s 3-0 in ROH and a few more wins beyond that overall, Diamante is thriving under pressure. She barely upholds the Code of Honor, and then tells Tony Khan through the camera, “I need better!” Will she be the one aiming for Athena’s title on the road to Death Before Dishonor?
Tony Nese w/ The Varsity Athletes VS Serpentico w/ Spanish Announce Project!
Smart Mark got Nese this singles match to show what he’s made of, but he’s currently 0-3. Will Nese turn that around to finally get going as a solo star? Or will #SNAKEMAN humble Nese and his eight pack?
But wait, Sterling gets the mic to speak. He wants everyone to quiet down, and then he says that his client, Tony Nese, has something to get off his chest. Nese takes the mic and tells everyone to relax. He says this is the time that he and Daivari want to open up and be honest with everyone. “Now, for many, many years now, we have been trying to win the respect of each and every one of you. We really have, and we don’t even know why we get the disrespect. Or we didn’t know why, but then I really started to think about it. And in all honesty, the reason why we don’t earn your respect… It’s because we’re not ‘relatable.’ Right? We’re not relatable!
“We’re never gonna be fat, disgusting pieces of trash like each and every one of you! Hey, the truth hurts.” But seeing as how they’ll never be like the fans, being personal trainers on the side, they are gonna turn everyone into athletes like them! Nese talked it out with the folks in the back, and for right now, the wrestling is going to be put on hold. “We are going to do a group exercise!” Nese knows this will be hard, but everyone needs to stand up, and we’ll start with stretches. Follow along with Daivari. Reach for the sky! And he says that better than anyone here. Now, touch your toes, if you can see them.
Now for the hard stuff. They’re gonna do squats! Anyone know what those are? It’s almost like what the fans do when they sit on the toilet after eating 20 hot dogs. So everyone, stand with a wide stance, and then squat nice and low. C’mon, you all can do better than this! There are guys who can’t even get up outta their seats! Those are they guys who should be doing squats! Nese says fine, these idiots aren’t capable of that, so let’s go to push-ups! Do they know what these are? Watch Daivari! Get low, go up, and repeat. But here comes Serpentico! Fans cheer as he ends this insulting farce and forces Nese to fight!
The fans rally for SAP, and the two keep the Code of Honor. The bell rings and Serpentico circles with Nese. They tie up, Nese gets around to waistlock and SLAM! Serpentico goes to a corner while Nese flexes on him. Serpentico admits, Nese is strong. But fans rally as Serpentico flexes his own muscle. The two reset, tie up, and Nese powers Serpentico into the corner. The ref counts, Nese lets off slowly, but he hits Serpentico low! Nese then brings Serpentico up to bump him off buckles. Nese soaks up the heat and goes back to Serpentico to throw hands. Serpentico falls over and Nese soaks up more heat.
Nese drags Serpentico up but Serpentico SLAPS him! Fans fire up, Nese runs in but Serpentico BOOTS him away! Serpentico then goes up to RANA Nese! Fans fire up and Serpentico flexes! Nese is annoyed, he kicks Serpentico and stomps him down! Nese drags Serpentico up, whips him to ropes, and then CLOBBERS him! Serpentico flounders, Nese is after him, and stomps him against the ropes. The ref reprimands, Nese lets off and argues with him, and Daivari gets a cheap shot on Serpentico! Fans boo but Daivari just does jumping jacks. Nese stalks Serpentico to a corner, but Serpentico kicks him!
Serpentico kicks more, stands up and he fires off body shots! Serpentico whips, Nese reverses but Serpentico sunset flips! Nese rolls through to SOBAT! Cover, TWO! Nese argues with the ref but the count was fair. Nese stalks Serpentico while fans chant “WE EAT HOT DOGS!” Nese puts Serpentico in the Tree of Woe, then goes corner to corner, but stops to sit down, and do ab crunch kicks! The ref reprimands, Nese lets off, and Nese soaks up the heat. Nese counts his abs, then pushes Serpentico around. Cover, TWO! Nese wraps on body scissors and he squeezes Serpentico! Fans rally up as Serpentico endures!
Serpentico powers up to throw hands on Nese! Daivari says those are closed fists but the ref says they’re not. Nese CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS and then punches away on Serpentico! Nese looms over Serpentico, then taunts him as Serpentico sits up. Serpentico flips Nese off! And throws body shots! Serpentico throws hands, then JAWBREAKERS! Fans fire up and Serpentico runs in, but Nese UPPERCUTS back! Nese then runs Serpentico for the BULLDOG HOTSHOT! Serpentico is down, Nese goes to the apron, PREMIER TRIANGLE FLOPS as Serpentico moves! Fans rally as Nese staggers up.
Serpentico rallies with forearms and clotheslines! Serpentico whips, Nese reverses but Serpentico tilt-o-whirls to headscissor! And then COMPLETE SHOT! Nese goes to a corner, Serpentico runs in as the fans fire up, GAMANGIRI! Fans chant for “S A P!” but Nese reels Serpentico in! CORNER GERMAN!! Nese then sits Serpentico up, for the PREMIER KNEE!! Cover, Nese wins!
Winner: Tony Nese, by pinfall
His opinions on people’s lifestyles, physiques and whatever else aside, Nese proves he can get it done. Will this be the start of Nese become a premier champion in ROH?
Backstage interview with Kiera Hogan.
Dasha is with the fired up- Wait, that’s not Kiera. That’s Athena cosplaying as Kiera to mock her! “That’s all, period, Lexi! That’s all, period! Period period period, Lexi! I’m Kiera Hogan, I am the hottest flame, let it be known I created the hair color blue. But guess what? I fake injuries for attention! Uh-huh, period! And y’know what else I do? I twerk for attention, baby!” But then the REAL Kiera CLOBBERS Athena! The wig goes flying off, and Kiera tells Athena to keep her name out her damn mouth! And THAT is all, PERIOD. Kiera leaves and Athena is snarling. Will the Fallen Goddess only double down and snuff out Kiera’s fire?

The chase after Athena’s gold is never ending, and so the Lucha Baddie and the Wrestling Angel are fighting for position in the division. Who gains crucial momentum as the Summer heats up?

Cover, TWO!
Mimi is hanging tough but Alize smothers her to another cover. ONE, and Alize is annoyed.

Mimi fights up, elbows Alize, but Alize throws Mimi by her hair! Alize pie faces Mimi, talks trash, and says she is the ROH veteran. There’s nothing Mimi can do!

A man born and bred for combat has left his former friends behind. Will Dutch & Vincent help Stu unleash his full potential? Or will The Peacock’s team, now back to 100%, fight their way back to the ROH World Six Man Tag Team Championships?
The fans are already rallying for Castle and his Boys, and they offer the Code of Honor. Stu & The Righteous uphold it, but Dutch & Stu squeeze The Boys’ hands tight! Brent & Brandon get free, and Vincent just smiles at Castle. The ref calls for things to sort out, and Castle starts against Vinnie. But then Castle tags in the returning Brent and fans rally up! Brent and Castle fire each other up, and Castle says Vinnie is in HIS world! He’s in trouble now! Brent fires off on Vinnie but Vinnie CHOPS back! And CHOPS again! Vinnie whips, Brent reverses but Vinnie then whips Brent to CLOBBER him! And then Vinnie does his snap and swagger.
Fans rally while Vinnie has a wild look in his eyes. Vinnie stalks Brent, drags him up, and whips him to a corner. Brent goes up and over, arm-drags Vinnie then slides under him to arm-drag again!

Stu kips up and fans fire up. Stu drags Brandon up, trophy lifts him, but Brandon slips free! Brandon shoves to RANA Stu out of the ring! Fans fire up and Stu glares at Castle. Stu talks some trash, Castle says he doesn’t understand what he said, and Vinnie rushes up on Castle. Castle shoves Vinnie down, but Stu POSTS Castle! Fans boo but Dutch stalks Brandon!

Vinnie is loving it, “Are you digging what I’m saying, man?”
Stu rains down fists on Brent but Castle gets in to shove him away. The ref reprimands Castle but he says those are his boys! Stu drags Brent up and brings him over, tag to Dutch. They mug Brent, and Dutch UPPERCUTS Brent down! Vinnie grins as Dutch drags Brent up to short arm LARIAT! Dutch flicks that tongue of his like the snake in the grass, and he brings Brent up. Dutch reels Brent in but Brent dodges to shove Dutch and ENZIGURI! Fans fire up, Stu tags in! Brent crawls, but Stu drags him away! Brent kicks Stu back! Hot tag to Castle!

Winners: Stu Grayson & The Righteous, by pinfall
Undefeated as a trio, these three could be a new force of nature in ROH. Will nothing stop them now that Stu has left The Dark Order? Speaking of…
Backstage interview with The Dark Order.
Dasha is with Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds & John Silver and notes what we just saw with Stu & The Righteous winning. Silver says, “You boys wanna get nuts? Let’s get nuts! We watched your match. You guys talk about being violent, and to be honest, we’re not impressed! We can get a hell of a lot more violent than that!” Reynolds says Stu left them, that’s fine. A lot of people have left The Dark Order, and they did nothing about it. But you wanna talk about how The Dark Order used to be the lions of AEW? Boys, you just woke these lions up! Uno asks Stu, “Are these men your brothers? Are The Righteous your family?
“Will they see you at your lowest? Will they help you when you’re down? I don’t think so. In fact, will these men bleed for you? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see, Stu.” What are they implying with all this? How violent are things about to get between these trios?
ROH Women’s World Championship Proving Ground Match: Athena VS Trish Adora!
The Fallen Goddess is always aggressive, but will she be downright vicious after what happened with Kiera Hogan? Or will the AfroPunk be able to take advantage of an angry Athena?
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and fans rally up as Adora has her dukes up. Athena is annoyed already and she steps to Adora. But then Athena backs off to go to the apron. She gets fans cheering her on now and is happier. Athena steps back in, but she has to remember there’s a ten minute time limit. Athena and Adora approach, Athena shoots around to waistlock, but Adora wrenches out to an ELBOW BREAKER! Adora keeps on that arm, she wrangles Athena, and fans rally up. Athena headscissors to bring Adora down, but Adora kips free. The two reset and fans rally up. Adora eggs Athena on and the two tie up again.
Athena puts Adora in a corner, the ref counts, and Athena lets off slowly. But then Athena headlocks! Athena laughs, grinds the hold, but Adora powers up and out. They RAM shoulders and both women stay up! Fans fire up and Adora eggs Athena on again. Athena says okay, test of strength! She’s the champ, let’s go! Adora holds her hand up but she’s taller than Athena so Athena can’t reach. Athena complains, so Adora brings the hand down. They knuckle lock, then Adora kicks the legs, steps over and JAMS an arm, to then top wristlock! Fans rally as Adora YANKS the arm, wrenches and YANKS it again!
Adora has a double wristlock but Athena fights. Adora WRINGS Athena into buckles! Fans fire up but Athena bails out. Adora waits on Athena but Athena says the ref doesn’t tell her what to do. Adora rushes out, Athena rushes in! Athena then gets Adora’s leg, DRAGON SCREW! Adora hobbles to the floor but Athena goes out to DROPKICK her into the steel steps! Fans rally while Adora flounders around the way. Athena kicks Adora, KICKS her again, then puts her back in the ring. Athena hurries in after Adora to FOREARM her in the back! Athena gets the bad leg, stomps away on it, and then drops knees on the knee!

Adora kicks more but Athena turns her over and ties up the legs! BOW ‘N’ ARROW CROSSFACE! Adora endures, crawls forward, but Athena fishhooks her! The ref reprimands, Athena pulls hair, but Adora gets the ROPEBREAK! The ref counts as Athena pulls on the legs, and Athena lets off at 4. Adora clutches her leg but the fans duel. Athena yanks the dollar outta Adora’s garter belt! That dollar isn’t just a dollar to Adora and Athena knows it.
Athena pie faces Adora, eggs her on, and SLAPS her! “You ain’t got nothing! Porcelain broad!” But Adora gest around to BASEMENT GERMAN SUPLEX! Athena gets back up, but runs into a tilt-o-whirl BACKBREAKER! Athena staggers, Adora BOOTS her down! Fans fire up and Adora aims at Athena in the corner. Adora runs in to UPPERCUT! And then yanks Athena into a POWERSLAM! Cover, TWO! Athena is still in this but Adora shakes out the bad leg. Adora stalks Athena to ropes, stomps her, then stomps her some more. Fans rally, Adora drags Athena but Athena kicks her away.
Athena goes to a corner, Adora runs in but Athena blocks the kick! Athena puts that leg on the ropes, to KICK it! Wheelbarrow victory roll sends Adora into buckles! Athena SUPERKICKS! Adora wobbles, Athena climbs the corner, THE O FACE!! Cover, Athena wins!
Winner: Athena, by pinfall (denies Trish Adora a title match)
The Fallen Goddess got a fight outta Adora, but still comes out on top. Athena offers a handshake to keep the Code of Honor, and Adora reaches out, but Athena DECKS her!! Athena cheers herself on, then brings Adora around. But wait! Here comes Kiera! Kiera already got Athena once, and she has a trash can lid this time! Kiera rushes in but Athena CLOBBERS her first! Athena rains down fists but Kiera turns it around! Refs rush out but fans want to “LET THEM FIGHT!” Athena gets the trash can lid to SMACK Kiera! Athena scares off the refs, but then security rushes out. Athena glares at them, and then says fine, she’s done.
But she DECKS a guard! Kiera SMACKS Athena with the lid!! Kiera isn’t done there, she goes looking for something under the ring. She brings out a TABLE! The fans love it as Kiera puts the table in the ring. Then she DECKS the other security guard as she gets in. Kiera sets that table up in a corner, but Athena SPEARS her through it!! Fans fire up again while the refs check Athena and Kiera. They’re BOTH out cold, so refs call over medics. They help Kiera out of the wreckage, and then Athena. Are these two going to tear it all down just to prove who is the alpha female in ROH?
Mark Briscoe VS Anthony Henry w/ JD Drake!
Surely the Sussex County Chicken heard what the Saint of Augusta said earlier, and is ready for a serious fight. Will Mark make Henry #ManUp? Or will this Workhorsemen fulfill his promise to visit the sins of FTR upon their friend?
The Code of Honor is upheld, but with some sarcasm from Henry. Then Henry headlocks Mark as the bell rings! Mark powers out and RAMS shoulders with Henry! Mark fires up but Henry SOBATS!

INVERTED RINGS OF SATURN!!
Mark endures and fans rally, and he reaches out with a foot for the ROPEBREAK! Henry lets go in frustration, and he dares Mark to hit him. Mark swings but Henry bobs ‘n’ weaves! Henry fires off fast strikes, a BOOT, then runs in at the corner. Mark ELBOWS Henry, and BOOTS him back! Fans fire up with Mark, brings Henry up and CHOPS! Mark ROCKS Henry, again, and reels him in to suplex. Henry slips free, shoves, and SNAP GERMANS! BUZZSAW! Cover, TWO!! Mark survives and Henry argues the count.

Now that’s how you #ManUp! Samoa Joe is still ROH World Television Champion, will Mark get his shot next?
Tony Khan speaks.
“Hey everyone, it’s great to be here tonight for a very special ROH match in Colorado Springs. Last week, as the chairman of ROH, I appointed a new Board of Directors of myself and two other members. And I’m here tonight for a very special match. Before I say anything else, I’d like to introduce my fellow member of the board, I really like him a lot, ladies and gentlemen, a manager of great wrestlers and a great person himself, Stokely Hathaway.” Stokely walks over and says he appreciates the introduction. Tony appreciates Stokely saying that. And the third member of the board is Jerry Lynn, he is ringside for this next match contested under Pure Rules, Daniel Garcia VS NJPW’s DKC, a protégé to ROH Pure Champion, Katsuyori Shibata.
And while Tony has Stokely here, he just wants to say, he really appreciates Stokely and the job he’s doing already. Stokely thanks Tony for that and says he’s holding back tears. Stokely has already had great ideas, such as the handicap match of Action Andretti VS The Mogul Embassy. Stokely says he never finished what he said, but they’re obviously on the same page. Tony says yeah, that initial idea planted the seed for tonight’s main event, an ROH World Six Man title match of The Mogul Embassy VS Action Andretti, AR Fox & Darius Martin. An exciting show already, a lot has happened, and certainly an exciting situation between Athena and Kiera Hogan.
Stokely has an idea for that. They’ve been having a back and forth, so perhaps we settle this in Chicago. It’ll be a Chicago Street Fight for the ROH Women’s World Championship! Tony loves it! Great idea! It’s booked! ROH TV in Chicago, at the United Center, Athena VS Kiera for the title in a Chicago Street Fight!! Big thumbs up from the Board of Director, but who will leave the Second City as number one?
Pure Rules Match: Daniel Garcia VS The DKC!
The Dragonslayer has already called out Shibata, and he even added Orange Cassidy to the list just last night on Dynamite. Will Garcia take down THE Dylan Kyle Cox? Or will DKC make NJPW and his sensei proud?
As Tony Khan let us know, Jerry Lynn is ringside as one of the three judges for this match, alongside Christopher Daniels and Dean Malenko. The Code of Honor is NOT upheld as Garcia kicks DKC’s hand away. The bell rings, the two tie up, and Garcia gets around to waistlock and SLAM! Garcia floats around on DKC, then slaps him around. Garcia “kicks dirt” while soaking up heat from the fans. DKC gets up and cools off. They tie up, DKC wrenches and wristlocks but Garcia wrenches and wristlocks back. DKC wrenches, wristlocks, and the fans chant “YOU’RE A WRESTLER!” at Garcia.
Garcia powers DKC to a corner, the ref calls a neutral ropebreak, and Garcia lets off. Garcia swings, DKC dodges, and DKC CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! Garcia turns things around, DKC dodges again to CHOP and CHOP! DKC fires off more CHOPS, then whips, but Garcia reverses to CLOBBER DKC! Garcia eggs DKC on, kicks him around, and fans boo. Garcia stands DKC up to CHOP! Garcia whips, DKC ducks ‘n’ dodges and RANAS! Fans fire up and DKC runs in, flying-mare! DKC keeps moving, basement dropkick! Fans fire up and DKC RIDGE HANDS! Fans fire up and Garcia goes to a corner.
DKC whips but Garcia reverses. Garcia runs in but into a BOOT! DKC goes up but Garcia SHOVES him to the floor! Fans boo, the ref reprimands, but Garcia soaks up the heat. Garcia then feels the stinging in his chest. The ring count starts, fans rally for DKC and he stands at 5 of 10. DKC gets in but Garcia stomps away! Garcia stands on DKC, flexes, but the ref counts. Garcia lets off, and he drags DKC up. Garcia talks trash, snap suplexes, then floats to a cover, TWO! Garcia is annoyed but he pulls DKC’s hair. The ref reprimands, Garcia lets off, then drags DKC up. Garcia whips, DKC sunset flips! But Garcia rolls through!
Garcia has a leg, turns DKC over, STF! DKC endures, fans rally, and he crawls his way forward! DKC keeps fighting, even as Garcia pulls back! DKC reaches out, ROPEBREAK! Garcia lets go, but that is DKC’s first of three. Garcia makes sure everyone knows it, too. Fans boo Garcia but he kicks DKC to a corner. Garcia stomps away, the ref counts, and Garcia runs corner to corner. Garcia is mocking Shibata, but then he stops to do his dance. Fans boo but Garcia just keeps it up. Garcia stands DKC up but DKC CHOPS and CHOPS! Garcia kicks low, scoops, but DKC slips free! DKC ducks ‘n’ dodges and CANNONBALL ATTACKS!
Fans fire up as Garcia goes to a corner. DKC goes to the opposite, he fires up but Garcia runs in first. DKC BOOTS Garcia, goes up and BOOTS him again! DKC RIDER KICKS from the corner! Fans fire up and DKC watches Garcia get up. “IKU ZO~!” DKC clinches, and RIDGE HAND CHOPS away on Garcia! Fans fire up and DKC CLOBBERS Garcia with one more! DKC jumps for a FALLING RIDGE HAND! Cover, TWO! But into a RINGS OF SATURN! Garcia endures, fights around, and he goes to the ROPEBREAK! DKC lets go and Garcia uses his first, almost unheard of for Garcia in these kinds of matches!
DKC rushes in but Garcia blocks the takedown by pulling hair! Garcia gets the legs and shouts “I’m a SPORTS ENTERTAINER!” WALLS OF JERICHO!! Shoutout to The Wizard Garcia follows, but fans still rally for DKC! DKC endures, fights up, turns things back over, and he drags Garcia to a cradle! TWO!! Garcia runs in, spins DKC around and CODE BREAKER! Cover, but Garcia lets of!? Garcia wants to make DKC pay, and he puts him in the DRAGONTAMER!! DKC taps, Garcia wins!
Winner: Daniel Garcia, by submission
At 7 minutes, 26 seconds, Red Death brings DKC down! And then he sits cross-legged, just like Shibata. Garcia then mockingly shakes DKC’s hand to keep the Code of Honor. But will The Wrestler humble Garcia when they finally meet in the ring?
Backstage interview with The Mogul Embassy.
Dasha is with Prince Nana and the ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions. She says that for weeks, Nana has complained that Brian Cage, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona don’t have sufficient competition. Kaun asks how many days their reign is at now, because he is getting bored! Nana agrees, the entire Embassy is sick of the lollygagging! Week after week after week, they’ve faced losers after losers after losers! How many times are they gonna get the win? Brian Cage says week after week is what it has been. WEAK competition!
Look at tonight’s challengers! Action Andretti? His 15 minutes of fame are gonna be gone. See you in catering, buddy. Darius Martin? Yeah, his real partner, Dante, is hurt and on the shelf. This isn’t even Darius’ real team! And oh, AR Fox? Been there, done that. Line ’em up, they’ll keep knockin’ ’em down one after another. The Embassy goes out there, gets their ish in, owns the night and the spotlight, and they do what they do better than anyone else and own the show. Nana says you know the saying: The Mogul Embassy is forever, and in Swerve We Trust. Liona roars, but will they all have the last laugh here tonight?
Skye Blue VS Viva Van!
Just last night on Dynamite, Chicago Skye was so close to having gold! But of course, The Outcasts cheated another one and the AEW Women’s World Championship is still on #ToniTime. Willow Nightingale will help Skye seek vengeance on AEW Collision’s debut episode, so can Skye rebound here on ROH? Or will The Hellbent Vixen drag Skye further down?
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the two circle. Fans rally as the two circle and tie up. They go around, Skye gets around to a waistlock, but Viva sits down. Viva rolls, wrenches, wristlocks, and keeps Skye from ropes. Skye rolls but Viva rolls with her! Viva keeps on the arm but Skye spins and whips then follows to run Viva over! Fans fire up as things speed up and Skye cartwheels over. Viva dodges, but Skye tilt-o-whirls! Viva sits up, blocks a kick but the BASEMENT ROUNDHOUSE hits! Fans fire up as Viva gets up in a corner. Skye ROCKS Viva, whips her corner to corner, but Viva goes up and out!
Viva blocks Skye’s punch, shoulders in, then slingshots up and over to keep moving, WHEEL KICK! Fans fire up with Viva and she covers, TWO! Skye survives but Viva keeps her cool.

ROH World Six Man Tag Team Championships: The Mogul Embassy VS Action Andretti, AR Fox & Darius Martin!
Speaking of championships, Brian Cage, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona just said they’re getting bored at being this dominant. Will their “boredom” continue as they crush these three high-flyers? Or will the Sight to See, the Whole Fox’n Show & The Air Wolf catch the Embassy sleeping and take their titles?
The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and we see if there’s an answer to the question, “Who betta?”
The Code of Honor is reluctantly upheld and the trios sort out. Fox and Cage start and the two circle. The two tie up, and Cage shoves Fox away hard! Cage taunts Fox for thinking he’s the new champ. Fox runs in but Cage runs him over! Cage asks, “Who betta than Cage?” but Fox kips up! Fox kicks low, kicks again, but Cage ducks. Fox cravats, Cage powers out and Cage runs Fox over! Cage drags Fox up to ROCK him with a forearm, then whips him corner to corner. Fox goes up and over and handsprings away, to then slip out and trip Cage up! Fans fire up as Fox slingshots to SPLASH! But Cage sits right up and carries Fox!
Nana says that’s ingenuity right there! Cage swinging SLAMS Fox down! Fox flounders, and he gets to his corner to tag Darius. Cage runs in but into a GAMANGIRI! Darius then goes up, leaps, but Cage gets under. Liona swipes at Darius but misses, and Darius dodges Cage to DROPKICK! Kaun tags in, he rushes in but into fast hands! Darius CHOPS, whips, but Kaun blocks! Kaun whips but Darius goes up and over and headlocks Kaun. Kaun powers out, Darius RAMS Kaun, but Kaun comes back to CLOBBER Darius! Kaun drags Darius up to ROCK him, SPLASH him in the corner, and he tags Liona!
Liona and Kaun fire each other up, and Kaun whips Liona in to ELBOW Darius! Liona stands on Darius’ back, digs his heel in, and the ref counts. Tag to Kaun, Liona SPLASHES Darius’ back, and Kaun stands Darius up. Darius JAWBREAKERS Kaun, fires off on Liona & Cage, then ELBOWS Kaun. Darius fires off more hands on Cage & Liona, then leaps, but Kaun catches him! But Darius turns that into a SATELLITE DDT! Hot tags to Liona and Action! Action dodges to kick and kick, but Liona blocks! Liona spins Action but Action ENZIGURIS! Action whips but Liona blocks! Liona whips and runs in, but into BOOTS!

Fox keeps moving, he goes to the apron and springboards in, MISSILE DROPKICK! Fans fire up while Cage bails out. Darius DIVES to take out Liona! Action ARABIAN PRESSES Kaun! Fox FLIES to take out Cage!! Fans are thunderous as Fox gets Cage in the ring. Fox goes up a corner, takes aim, SWANTON BOMB! Cover, TWO! Cage survives but the fans fire up for Fox.

And then Cage carries Action out, but pops him from bomb position to Gory Especial! WEAPON X!!! Cover, The Embassy wins!!
Winners: The Mogul Embassy, by pinfall (still ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions)
Nana celebrates by adding his own stomps to Action before mockingly shaking his hand. Cage, Kaun & Liona are seemingly unstoppable, how long will they reign over ROH?
My Thoughts:
A great ROH here, and just only a little over two hours. A little disappointed that the ROH World TV Championship was the opener, not the main event, but I suppose it was still clear that Samoa Joe was retaining the title. For one, his feud with Zack Sabre Jr. is about both men being TV Champions. Second, Mark Briscoe wants after Joe for a rematch. Mark wins in a really good match against Anthony Henry, and I sure hope that all this is figured with Death Before Dishonor coming up in July. But we got an awesome main event out of the Six Man titles. They made Action, Fox & Darius look great, but I should’ve figured The Embassy would retain.
But of course, that really does bring up the question of who will take those titles off The Embassy. Really good Six Man match from Stu & The Righteous VS Castle & The Boys, and I figured Stu & The Righteous would win. Really good promo from The Dark Order to respond to Stu & The Righteous from last week, and great reference to Michael Keaton’s original Batman movie from Silver ahead of The Flash movie coming out. I hope we’re getting some kind of No Disqualification Six Man Tag out of these teams, winner moving on to face The Embassy and possibly take those titles.
I really hope Tony Nese & Ari Daivari aren’t going to make that group exercise thing a regular gag. But Nese had a good match and good win against Serpentico, and looks to be the Varsity Athletes choice for singles guy. Though much like in his later days in NXT, I don’t see Nese getting a title when we’ve got great wrestlers like Orange Cassidy, Shibata, Samoa Joe, Claudio Castagnoli, etc. holding the belts. Speaking of Shibata, Garcia got a solid win over DKC to build momentum towards their Pure Championship match, which will surely happen at Death Before Dishonor. No idea how that goes, it all depends on Shibata’s NJPW plans.
Really good, really fun tag match from Iron Savages VS Titus & Tracy. Jacked Jameson is very over the top with his catchphrases and his coaching of Bronson & Boulder, but Bronson & Boulder have always been impressive, even when they were Bear Country. The ROH Tag Division has a lot of great teams in it, maybe they’ll get to figuring out #1 contenders with only a month left before Death By Dishonor. The Iron Savages weren’t really Heels in the match tonight, so I don’t think they’ll be the ones challenging The Lucha Brothers. Maybe it’s The Kingdom, who are still Heels even after that great Fight Without Honor.
The House of Heathens showing up was an interesting part of the night. Deimos looked great against Comoroto but I should’ve figured he’d lose. And great to see Teal Piper, daughter of Rowdy Roddy Piper, though I feel like she still needs some polish. But Diamante winning makes sense, she’s the one who has been building momentum. Likewise, that’s why Skye won against Viva Van. AEW/ROH has been pushing Skye, she’s been improving greatly, and she gets this win here to keep her momentum going. She went after the ROH title a little too soon, and maybe a touch too soon for the AEW title, but she’s young and can always circle back again.
Speaking of, Athena mocking Kiera was a clever promo, as was Kiera pulling a Will Smith. Athena VS Adora was really good for just a Proving Ground, but of course Athena wins. Kiera going after Athena and then the Chicago Street Fight Tony & Stokely brainstormed in their promo is great stuff. I don’t know if this is when Athena loses the title, but a Street Fight would protect her in the end. Maybe Athena makes a return to AEW to get at those titles, as she is worthy of them and actually has a chance since Jade Cargill is on hiatus right now.
My Score: 8.7/10

AEW Continental Classic, Gold League: Will Ospreay VS Ricochet!
Wait, are the fans throwing white streamers or is that… No, yeah, it’s toilet paper! Ospreay laughs at the fans basically calling Ricochet crap. Ricochet throws the toilet paper back! The bell rings and we’re on the clock. The fans fire up for Ospreay as he and Ricochet circle. The fans also sing, “F HIM UP, OSPREAY, F HIM UP!” Ricochet shrugs that off, he and Ospreay tie up, and then Ricochet rolls. Ospreay shoots in, waistlocks, but Ricochet switches. They go around, Ricochet gator rolls with Ospreay, then floats to a headlock. Ricochet wrenches, hammerlocks then headlocks again. Ospreay powers up and out, Ricochet runs him over, but Ospreay kips up!
The fans cheer and Ospreay smiles as he and Ricochet reset. They tie up, go around, and Ricochet wrenches to a wristlock. Ospreay rolls, wrenches and wristlocks, but Ricochet spins and wrenches to hammerlock. Ospreay reaches back, headlocks and hits a takeover. Ricochet rolls to a cover, TWO! Ospreay holds onto the headlock but Ricochet powers up and out. Ospreay runs Ricochet over, Ricochet bails out, and then Ospreay handsprings to fake Ricochet out! The fans cheer as Ospreay superhero lands out, and Ricochet is annoyed. Ospreay holds ropes open for Ricochet, but Ricochet goes around the way to step in on his own.
The fans boo Ricochet being a bad sport but Ricochet ignores that. Ospreay and Ricochet knuckle lock, then Ricochet kicks low! And CHOPS! Ricochet whips, Ospreay reverses, but Ricochet rolls off Ospreay’s back! Things keep moving, Ospreay avoids the handspring to then duck ‘n’ dodges and RANA! But Ricochet handsprings through! The fans fire up, and Ospreay arm-drags Ricochet down! The fans cheer while Ricochet endures the grind. Ricochet fights up and puts Ospreay on ropes.

Ospreay endures while Ricochet digs a knee into the back. Ospreay fights up, fights with elbows, then runs, but into a DROPKICK!
Ospreay is down in a daze but Ricochet has to shake out the stars in his own head. Ricochet covers, ONE! Ospreay then uses that one to flip off Ricochet. Ricochet RAMS Ospreay in the back! Ricochet then clamps on with a chinlock, and he digs his knee into Ospreay’s back. Ospreay endures, even as Ricochet JAMS Ospreay.

Adam Cole heads to the ring!
The fans cheer as the Panama City Playboy returns to the Hammerstein Ballroom, and yes, they join in for the “BOOM~!” and the “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY~!” Cole grabs a mic, but he keeps his eyes on the ramp. That’s because we all know who’s next. MJF makes his entrance, but with a handful of security guards in front of him first. And not even AEW security, that’s his own personal security. MJF grabs a mic and has them cut his music. The fans boo but MJF tells them, “If I wanted your help, I’d ask for it. Sit down and shut up.” The fans tell MJF to STFU, but MJF shrugs that off.
MJF tells Cole that MJF is frustrated. It’s because for the past few months, MJF has had to listen to Cole say MJF is Cole’s biggest enemy! If memory serves, and MJF’s memory always does because unlike the fans here, he isn’t a complete moron… Didn’t Cole turn on MJF? But then does Cole realize he has bigger enemies out there? Like spray tan, cracks in the floor, gusts of win, and maybe… a cavity. Because last MJF heard, Cole’s dentist isn’t seeing him anymore. Cole was already staring daggers into MJF, but now he’s pissed. MJF has Cole calm down, and he tells the fans to shut up so he can shoot straight.
When MJF was the longest-reigning and greatest AEW World Champion of all time, Cole was nothing more than MJF’s cute little sidekick. That ate Cole up inside. Cole wanted to be MJF. Cole wanted #TripleB. But the sad truth is, Cole had many opportunities to win the title before MJF got anywhere near it. It’s almost like when it comes to Cole being elite enough to become world champion, just like his “s*itty little ankle,” Cole blows it. MJF laughs at his own joke, and then tells the fans he is talking, it is not that complicated. But this is why MJF doesn’t buy the hogwash that Cole turned on MJF because MJF would turn on Cole first.
Cole turned because he, like all these shmucks, is jealous of MJF. And who can blame Cole? MJF is rich, handsome, funny, entertaining, and then look at Cole. For crying out loud, Cole used to be ADAM COLE BAYBAY. Now, he’s just a crack baby! Cole asks if MJF is done. Was that the last line? Because it felt like MJF practiced that for two weeks in front of a mirror. But MJF killed it, really. Cole could come back with childish comments to hurt MJF’s feelings, but he won’t. Cole could mention MJF has had two surgeries on that fake head of hair of his while only in his 20s, which is hilarious, but he won’t.
Cole could talk about how MJF pulled some strings to get his girlfriend hired, like the real politician he is, but Cole won’t go there. Cole could talk about how every single time MJF enters a room, everyone waits for him to leave because he is loud, obnoxious and annoying as hell. But Cole won’t go there. Because Cole is not like MJF. They are nothing alike. That is why the friendship was ruined. Because, MJF, the truth is you say Cole is a failure, but in virtually every wrestling company Cole has worked for, he is the longest-reigning champion in so many!
In this very building, Cole bled BUCKETS against Kyle O’Reilly, wanting to prove he was one of the best in the world, and that is exactly what he did! Does Cole have regrets? Sure. Are there things Cole wishes he could take back? Absolutely. But Cole does NOT regret turning on MJF. The only reason it drives MJF insane is because Cole beat MJF to it. That’s MJF 101: Get close to someone, then turn on them. It’s what MJF does. Cole just did it better than MJF, and MJF knows it.
But Cole has been thinking, trying to understand what’s going on in MJF’s head, and he finally figured it out. MJF is terrified of having anyone close to him, because he feels it is a weakness. That hit a chord? Because not only does MJF act like a child, he thinks like a child! MJF knows in his heart that he was going to be the one to turn on Cole first! DAMN RIGHT HE WAS!!! MJF realizes he let the cat out of the bag. MJF says congrats, Cole, he solved the mystery! A regular Scooby-Doo! Great job, Adam.
But you want the truth? Here it is. The fact of the matter is, last year at Worlds End, MJF had every intention on stabbing Cole in the back that night. Cole just got lucky. When #BetterThanYouBaybay started, MJF didn’t give a damn about Cole. Cole was nothing more than a pawn. But MJF will admit, he did eventually start to care. For the first time in MJF’s life, he cared about someone else. Fans mockingly go, “Aww…” But MJF says that is just when Cole became a liability. And since Cole’s “a fragile little freak,” him jumping off that ramp and exploding his ankle made him a distraction!
Distractions, liabilities, emotions, there are no room for those when all you should be concerned with is maintaining the world championship! But Cole doesn’t get it, does he? Last year was a fluke. Cole ain’t the Devil, he just beat the Devil to it. But this year, Worlds End, December 28th, the same show where Cole tried to end MJF’s world, MJF ENDS Cole!! MJF throws down the mic and the fans are torn. Cole smirks and says MJF ends things then? Well, how about Cole ends this? COLE DECKS MJF! The guards rush in, but Cole fights them off! MJF sends more but Cole SUPERKICSK! And SUPERKICKS! And SUPERKICKS!
But then MJF LOW BLOWS Cole! MJF tells the fans to shut up! MJF takes out the Dynamite Diamond Ring! But then The Kingdom rushes out here! MJF runs away from Matt Taven & Mike Bennett, but he vows this ends at Worlds End. We have one week left, is that the last week Cole has in AEW? Or will MJF finally lose the one thing he has left in that diamond ring?
Backstage interview with Kris Statlander.
Lexy Nair is with the #BornAgainKristen and brings up her trying to make amends with Willow Nightingale last night, as well as making the save when Harley Cameron & Penelope Ford were beating Willow up. Kris says what she and Willow have to discuss is between them. But as far as her and Penelope go, they’ve got a lot of history, and if Ford wants a fight, Kris will give her a fight. Then speaking of history, Kris still has her eyes set on the TBS Championship, can she tells us more on that?
Kris says she looked back on 2024 and she had a downward spiral that started with losing that title. Maybe if she wins it back, Kris will right her wrongs. On that note, Mercedes Mone, you don’t have an opponent for Worlds End so here Kris is. Let her know when you’re ready for round two. Kris heads out, will she prove to everyone that she is still the Galaxy’s Greatest?
Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.
AEW returns and Lexy is now with Freshly Squeezed. In exactly one week, he will compete against three other men for the AEW World Championship. There are a lot of combustible elements at play, and Cassidy says yeah, we saw that on Dynamite. Jay White, Hangman Page and Cassidy can’t exactly have a conversation. So really, Cassidy wants them to listen. “Between now and Worlds End, Jon Moxley can run and hide. He can hide behind his goons, he can run away in a pickup truck. But when that bell rings in seven days, he has nowhere to go. He will be in the ring with us. Us three. And you both know that we need to remove Jon Moxley from the equation.
“We can. We’ve done it. And after that, us three, we can fight for the AEW World Championship and one of us will become the AEW World Champion. Just something to think about. See you guys on Dynamite.” Cassidy is ready to remove the Maniac from the throne, but will the Switchblade and Cowboy listen to reason?
Kris Statlander VS Penelope Ford!
As Kris just said, she’s calling out The CEO in hopes of one more TBS Championship match. But will the Superbad Girl be more like the Grinch for Kris this Christmas?

Ford gave Kris quite the fight, but Kris came out on top! Wait, here comes Mone! Kris did call the CEO out, so Santa Mone says, “Ho, ho, ho ho ho! New York Citaaaay~! Please say hello to your C E O! Kris, after the year I’ve been having, I was planning on taking Worlds End off. I was planning on going to the Ritz in Boston.” The fans boo Boston, but Mone says since it’s the holidays, Mone feels like being nice. She already beat Kris once anyway, so she’ll just beat her twice! At Worlds End, you see that money changes everything, because Mone is the greatest TBS Champion of all time!
The challenge has been accepted, and Mone is looking to be busy before the New Year. Will Kris make her regret it?
Big Boom AJ & Big Justice return to the ring.
They’re getting Christmas Collision ready to bring the BOOM, but out comes Chris Jericho, who is still ROH World Champion after overcoming Matt Cardona last night at Final Battle. And he has Bryan Keith & “Big Bill” Morrissey with him as he asks if AJ has a permit for being here tonight. Did they talk with Mayor DeBlasio? Because they certainly didn’t run this past Jericho. Do they know who he is? Big Justice says yeah, he knows! “You’re a JACKASS!” Jericho is taken aback, but the fans agree with Justice. The Bad Apple says this is why dumbass kids should be sitting and not heard. Jericho says yeah!
And if being a jackass means he’s the King of New York, then Jericho’s the biggest jackass! And besides, Jericho talks for everyone here saying we do not want AJ & Justice here! The fans boo, they disagree with Jericho. But Jericho says they don’t even have Costcos in New York! New Yorkers shop at bodegas. Fans are torn, because they kind of agree. Jericho says his favorite is the Walgreens a few blocks over in Flushing. And speaking of Flushing, that’s where AJ & Justice belong: in the toilet! This is the Hammerstein Ballroom, the House that Jericho built! The fans boo that, it’s the House that Hardcore built.
But Jericho says there’s no time for goofy gimmicks like BOOM~, or bandit masks, or scissoring! Scissor me, Bad Apple~! But then wait! The Acclaimed is here! Well, Anthony Bowens is, at least. Bowens pushes past The Learning Tree and he joins AJ & Justice in the ring. Bowens has the music cut, and he tells Jericho that he doesn’t get why Scissor King is catching strays, but you caught his attention. Jericho is trying to intimidate a man in a walking boot and an 11 year old child while spouting nonsense about being the King of New York. Why doesn’t Jericho do what he has asked so many others in the past: SHUT THE HELL UP!
The fans cheer but Big Bill says, “As the Learning Tree always says, when a man tries to silence another man, he’s probably afraid of the truth.” The fans do cheer Big Bill because he is from New York. Bowens says he has no idea what that means, Bill. But he does know we’re live on TNT, Christmas Collision, Hammerstein Ballroom, New York City! So Chris, why not walk your ass to this ring and get it whipped by the Scissor King?! Jericho says if Bowens wants him to do that, then not tonight. Jericho waves bye, but AJ says hold on, listen up. We know Jericho is running scared, but we know at some point, Bowens will get to bring the-
Bowens stops the Boom? Because he wants to scissor! AJ says okay, and they SCISSOR BOOM~! But is that true? Will Anthony Bowens be the one to tear down the Learning Tree and be a champion?
Backstage interview with The Vendetta.
Lexy is now with Deonna Purrazzo & Taya Valkyrie, and they’ve got a hot streak going. Deonna’s message last week was ominous, but who was it for? Taya says there are so many options. Everyone deserves a slice of The Vendetta. There’s Mercedes, Mariah, Toni Storm, even Lexy could get some, so watch your back. Speaking of Toni, she stumbles in and apologizes for interrupting. She just wants to say hi to everyone, hello. Oh, Deonna, a pleasure. Deonna says she knows who Toni is. R-Really? So cool! Taya says she’ll make a guess: Toni has a tattoo on her leg, a little duck with a knife through it.
Wow, how’d Taya know? Deonna says no no no, she is not doing this again. She does not get what sick crap Toni’s up to, but she is already done with it. So for Dynamite’s Miracle on 34th Street, Toni VS Taya! Taya says she’ll make Toni forget everything! Toni nervously thanks The Vendetta, and says this is a big opportunity to face someone like Taya. Toni leaves, Deonna and Taya sigh, and Lexy has no idea what to say. Is Toni’s mind unraveling before our eyes? Or is there still a bit of Timeless inside Toni Time?

Julia Hart speaks.
“Jamie, Jamie, Jamie. I’m no coward. What you call tricks, I call advantages. I suggested that you watch your back. I gave you all the warnings. So I’m not understanding why you feel the need to call me classless and sneaky. I thought I was being more than reasonable. I know you’re strong, but are you smart? Are my ‘tricks’ too much for you? I guess we’ll find out January 1st, Fight for the Fallen. But remember: The House Always Wins.” The Princess of the Black Throne is ready, but will she learn Hayter Hits Hard?

PLAY BY PLAY
Tony Schiavone is in the ring!
Schiavone welcomes out the Blue League’s current points leader, Kyle Fletcher, and of course… Don Callis. But they’re not alone as the rest of the Don Callis Family makes their way out to the ring. Wait, shouldn’t Brian Cage be in New York for Final Battle…? Well anyway, Schiavone says there’s a lot of gold and- Callis takes the mic, and he says, “I have something important to say.” The fans boo and Schiavone excuses himself as Callis says the Don Callis Family are the TRUE One Percenters of professional wrestling! They prove it each and every day!
Murder Machines: The most feared tag team in the world! “Don Callis’ favorite wrestler,” Kyle Fletcher, shows every day why he is THE One Percent! He beat Will Ospreay! He beat Kazuchika Okada! And now, he’s gonna beat Daniel Garcia and win the Continental Classic! Callis hands the mic over to Kyle and Kyle says it might be true that last Saturday wasn’t the best day for Kyle, but anyone watching that match saw the clear bias from the officials in this company! The fans boo as Kyle claims there is an agenda in AEW to see the Don Callis Family NOT succeed. But it doesn’t matter, it changes nothing!
Kyle WILL be the winner of the 2024 Continental Classic. That brings Kyle to Daniel Garcia. “You wanna talk about restoring the feeling, Daniel? I couldn’t care less about your feelings! All I speak are facts! And the fact is, I am the hottest young prospect in this industry, and I will be the future of this whole place!” The fans boo more but Callis says one last thing he wants to say, is when you’re the One Percent, you’re not like the other 99! They are not like all of these fans! They are not like “the boys in the back,” like Mark Davis & Will Hobbs, “a couple of scab workers!” They’re not even in the same business, Hobbs!
And Callis has waited to get Hobbs on a PPV so that the world could watch why they call Konosuke Takeshita “The Alpha.” And Hobbs, YOU are not in the same business as Konosuke, and you find that out at Worlds End! But speaking of, here comes the Powerhouse! Will he and Dunkzilla finish things with the Don Callis Family? Or will the AEW International and ROH World TV Champions get even for last week?
Konosuke Takeshita & Brian Cage w/ Don Callis VS “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs & Mark Davis!

Hobbs SPINE- NO, Konosuke flails free and Hobbs says it was that close. Konosuke says to cool off while he paces on the outside. Konosuke steps back into the ring, but he tags to Cage.

Backstage interview with Willow Nightingale.
Renee Paquette is with the Babe with the Power who is in action later tonight. But first, Renee wants to congratulate Willow to making it to the finals of the inaugural International Women’s Cup. She heads off to Tokyo very soon, how is she feeling about it? Willow is very excited. Inaugural WrestleDynasty, one step closer to the inaugural International Women’s Cup winner, and so it is mind boggling after how- Kris Statlander steps in. Kris tells Willow that there is a lot she should say, but for now, she’ll say good luck at the Tokyo Dome. #BornAgainKristen takes Willow by surprise, will Willow win tonight and have momentum going to the New Year?
Lio Rush & Action Andretti VS Myles Hawkins & Goldy!
The dysfunction in Top Flight Airlines led to The Bad Child & The Sight to See winning over Darius & Dante Martin, meaning they’re next up to face Private Party. Will this be little more than a tune-up for Lio & Action?
The teams sort out, Lio starts against Myles, but then Lio handspring kicks Goldy off the apron! Myles back suplexes but Lio lands out and then dodges!

Winners: Lio Rush & Action Andretti, by pinfall
Fast win for this furious duo, but “Oh my gosh, is that Private Party?” Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy make their way out here and DC fires up! The AEW World Tag Team Champions call for “SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!” Lio & Action get their shot in the near future, but wait! Dante & Darius make their way out here? Private Party looks to the tunnels, but Lio & Action CLOBBER them from behind! Dante, Darius & Leila don’t worry about the champs, they stare Lio & Action down. Lio & Action hold up the belts, then throw them at the Martins. The refs keep this from getting any more physical, but will Lio & Action take those belts from Quen & Zay soon enough?
Backstage interview with Harley Cameron.
Renee is now with the “multifaceted” Harley and notes she’s in action against Willow Nightingale tonight. Harley says yes, she IS multifaceted. She wants us to appreciate ALL her facets! Renee says yes, but she has yet to earn a singles win in AEW. Fine, ruin her fun. But then Harley asks if some person off camera is gonna say anything or just stand there. In steps Penelope Ford, and Mrs. Superbad says yes, she was simply observing. But Ford couldn’t help but notice that she and Harley share a lot of similar… facets. Harley asks how much Ford’s cost. Uh, no, not those…
Ford meant that she hasn’t had such a good 2024, either. So from The Bad Girl to the… Harley doesn’t have a good nickname yet. Well, don’t worry about it. Ford will watch Harley’s back and Harley will watch Ford’s. Wait, is something on Harley’s back? No, Harley… Just good luck. FEEL THE WRATH OF HARLEY CAMERON! No, she was being nice to you, Harley. Right, don’t feel the wrath of Harley Cameron. There is nothing on your back, Harley, stop scratching. Wait! W-What? Nothing, sorry. But will Harley be feeling Willow’s wrath instead?
Willow Nightingale VS Harley Cameron!

They both beat up on Willow, but here comes Kris! Kris Statlander storms the ring, Harley & Ford run away! Willow is again surprised, but the fans want these two to “Hug It Out! Hug It Out!” Kris says no, she doesn’t feel like it’s the right time. Kris lets Willow have the ring, is this proof that the #BornAgainKristen isn’t just a nickname?
Team Triple J speaks backstage.
Standing alongside Jay Lethal, Satnam Singh, as well as Jeff & Karen Jarrett, Sonjay Dutt says, “They’ve asked us to look back and reflect on 2024, and Jeff, guys, what an incredible series of moments we’ve had in 2024.” The group agrees. From Wembley Stadium to Double J being in the Owen Hart Cup, some true career highlights that he will cherish forever. But Jarrett doesn’t like looking in the rearview mirror, he likes to look ahead. Next week, he’s not bringing resolutions, he’s bringing a game plan for 2025! What does the Last Outlaw have in store for himself and the team in the New Year?
AEW Continental Classic, Gold League: Brody King VS Komander!
While the rest of Gold League stands at 6 points, these two men are struggling to keep up. Will the King of Death join that traffic jam at the front of the block? Or will the Commander of the Skies be a spoiler for Christmas?

Winner: Brody King, by pinfall (gains 3 points; Komander earns 0)
If it wasn’t clear before, this was a painful punctuation mark, Komander is mathematically ELIMINATED from the semifinals. However, Komander’s final C2 match is Dynamite’s Miracle on 34th Street against Claudio Castagnoli! Can Komander be the biggest spoiler of this entire tournament? Can Brody prove to everyone in the Gold League that the House Always Wins?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here for Holiday Bash, though some clear redundancies from last week’s Winter is Coming edition. We got another group Don Callis Promo, and we barely got anything different from Callis and Kyle. The tag match’s only changes were Cage switching in for Archer, even though Cage is in reality defending his ROH World TV Championship in the Hammerstein Ballroom for Final Battle, and then the Callis Family wins this time so Hobbs and Konosuke can be even going towards Worlds End. Now, Konosuke could very well retain the International Championship at Worlds End because NJPW is totally open to Konosuke Takeshita VS Shingo Takagi being Winner Takes All, AEW International and NEVER Openweight titles on the line together.
Lio & Action of course won their match, but the real purpose was to get a confrontation out of them, Private Party and OG Top Flight, Darius & Dante. Good stuff, and it teases anywhere between a Triple Threat to Lio & Action VS Darius & Dante Round 2. Very good promo from Triple J to set up for something, anything really, for 2025. Fight for the Fallen can even be the start of whatever that plan is as part of the “mother of all streams.” And good stuff with the women’s division tonight. Ford & Harley makes a natural duo now given their names, and Willow and Kris could possibly reunite now that Kris is a Face again. That wouldn’t really make up for the weird fumble in the middle where Tony Khan just wanted Kris to get away from Stokely, but hey, this story itself could be really well done.
And great stuff out of Brody VS Komander, really got the drama going before the end. I mean, we all knew Komander was out of the running before tonight, and was most certainly taking the loss here, but Komander got to really show some grit. And now, five people at 6 points going into the final round, they’re really adding great drama to Gold League. Collision tomorrow and then Dynamite Miracle on 34th Street will be some great stuff, but I still think Ospreay should be one of the semifinalists, the second spot can be whoever they want.
My Score: 8.8/10
