Backstage interview with The Righteous & Stu Grayson.
But speaking of, Dasha is with Vincent, Dutch and the former Dark Order member. They saw that match just now, what are their thoughts? Dutch says “Their cruelty and brutality, that don’t impress me much. But y’know what? What’s been happening within The Dark Order for the past week or so, HAH! That’s my favorite sitcom!” Dutch asks what Stu thinks. Stu agrees, he wasn’t impressed by The Dark Order tonight. Stu knows how they are, and what they are. And right now, they are NOT the Dark Order who is willing to kick doors down.
And Vinnie says that what he thinks is, “What you gentlemen did was interesting, dig what I’m saying? But it wasn’t interesting enough to make me smile. And I can sense a little aggression in the Dark Order lately. But if you think what you did this week was bad. Please, please, gentlemen, please, I ask you, man… Tune in next week. Dig what I’m saying?” Is Vincent promising us that The Righteous, now with Stu by their side, will terrorize the Trios Division?

The Kingdom w/ Maria Kanellis-Bennett VS El Cobarde & El Dragon!
Matt Bennett & Matt Taven are still fighting to prove they define ROH, but they still need to prove they’re worthy of a tag title opportunity. Will they get a shot at the Lucha Brothers by defeating these lucha amigos?
The Code of Honor is upheld, the teams sort out, and Taven starts against Cobarde. They circle, the two feel things out, and then Taven knees low. Taven whips Cobarde, Cobarde reverses but Taven handsprings over. Taven runs to springboard and arm-drag! But Cobarde comes back, ducks ‘n’ dodges, then handsprings and rolls. Taven gets annoyed, things keep going, Cobarde handsprings through the hip toss to DROPKICK! Taven scrambles away to the OGK corner and he tags Mike in. Dragon tags in and shows off with a fancy entrance and handspring. Fans cheer, but Mike says NO! That stuff’s for the kiddies! Mike wants Dragon to hit him like a man!

The ROH Board of Directors walk back out.
Fans cheer as Tony, Stokely & Jerry return, and Tony says he has to say, in a matter of minutes, since first announcing this Board of Directors, things are going incredibly well. In a matter of minutes, Stokely came up with great cost saving ideas to save ROH a lot of money. Tony can’t implement most of them, such as the mass layoffs, that’s never a good idea. Stokely says those ideas are supposed to be confidential. But Tony does say there is a great idea in what he has planned for The Embassy. Could he elaborate more here?
Stokely says backstage, Andretti was popping off about how he beat Chris Jericho, as he always does. But because he is so confident, because he thinks he’s the man, next week we get Action Andretti VS The Mogul Embassy. And Stokely means ALL of them! Action VS Cage, Kaun, Liona, Nana, Nana’s cousins, what’s Tony say? Jerry whispers to Tony, and Tony says he thinks that is a great idea. But what about here next week in Orlando, it is the Embassy defending their ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions against Action, Darius & Fox! Stokely says that was the rest of his idea! You didn’t let him finish! Of course that’s where he was going with that.
Tony says okay, but there were some other interesting ideas. Like, no more luchadores on the show ever again. Hey, man, everyone has hits and everyone has misses, okay? That was a miss. Right, right, there is a book full of other great ideas. Stokely & Jerry are already great additions to the team, and Tony is excited for what they’re doing. And speaking of luchadores, a former ROH World Champion in Bandido’s brother is here, he is GRAVITY! And his opponent for tonight in a special main event, perhaps one of the best in the world, and one of the ROH World Tag Team Champions, it’s REY FENIX!
Fans fire up as the Firebird makes his way out, will he represent for the Lucha Brothers? Or will a brother of a luchador snatch himself a great win in his ROH debut?
Rey Fenix w/ Alex Abrahantes VS Gravity!
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings and fans rally. The two circle, tie up, and Fenix wrangles Gravity right down into a Fujiwara!

Fans fire up as Fenix staggers, and Gravity slingshots up and around to then arm-drag Fenix out of the ring! Fans fire up and Gravity runs, goes up the ropes, and FLIES! The crossbody hits at the ropes and fans fire up for “LUCHA! LUCHA!” Gravity and Fenix rise, Gravity puts Fenix in the ring, and then he goes up a corner.

Winner: Rey Fenix, by pinfall
A red hot main event of luchadores, and The Immortal Firebird defied Gravity to pull off the win! Fenix sees Leon St. Giovanni in the timekeeper’s area and shakes his hand before he shakes Gravity’s hand to keep the Code of Honor. Will Gravity and his brother, Bandido, look to be another pair of lucha brothers fighting in the ROH Tag Division? Will Fenix and his brother continue to dominate?
My Thoughts:
A great ROH here, and I do appreciate that they’re managing to keep ROH at that two hour mark. Consistency is the first step to elevating ROH past Elevation. And really, we only got two matches that were just because. Willie Mack VS Dralistico was great stuff, and I was a little surprised Mack lost. But I think Dralistico won because LFI needs momentum to stay alive in AEW and ROH after their other losses, such as the Texas Tornado Tag on Dynamite last night. Moriarty VS Garrison was also a great match, especially Griff getting a good showing in his return. But Moriarty winning makes sense, he’s been doing well in ROH and deserves to keep doing well.
Good opener from Fletcher VS Daniels, good win for Fletcher. Good following match from Sydal VS Clayton and of course Sydal won. Of course Sydal called out Joe, and of course that match gets made. Joe will win, of course, to further his TV Champion VS TV Champion story with Zack Sabre Jr. Really good stuff in the Trios Division tonight. Good win from The Dark Order, and good promo from The Righteous & Stu to call them out. But this booking is already feeling like Tony Khan brand backwards, just as he’s done with Starks VS JAS and Starks VS Bullet Club Gold. But I guess that means one day, we’re getting Dark Order VS Stu & Righteous the rematch.
Meanwhile, of course the Embassy wins the Proving Ground match, and we got a great match out of Action, Fox & Darius VS Trustbusters. And I suppose it makes a lot of sense for Action, Fox & Darius to now step up and challenge The Embassy for the titles. I don’t think Action, Fox & Darius win, but it would be awesome if they did because that’d show us ROH TV matters. Titles changing hands on weekly TV shows us weekly TV matters. I mean, fans are paying to watch this on Honor Club, so technically, this is PPV programming and that should mean cool things like title changes happens.
Now, as I say that, obviously Willow wasn’t losing her title. That’s a NJPW title, it isn’t changing hands unless it’s on a NJPW show. But Rachael Ellering got a great showing tonight, maybe she’ll get a push in ROH. Good match from Mercedes and Vert, and Mercedes wins because one, she’s building momentum in her return to ROH, and two, she now has momentum going into Rampage’s Fatal 4 Way match. Mercedes isn’t winning that Fatal 4, it’s going to be Britt Baker to go after Toni Storm per the Outcasts VS Homegrown story. And Kiera got a good win over Robyn, and as made clear by Athena attacking her, we’re getting a rematch of those two. Can’t be sure Kiera wins, she touched the belt and that’s usually a jinx.
I’m a little surprised Tony Khan is taking ROH down the on-air management road, but maybe Stokely and Jerry are going to actually take ROH off Tony’s workload. They did have a funny bit in their second promo, though, with Stokely quickly being established as the greedy corporate Heel who doesn’t understand what the fans like and dislike, just what he likes and dislikes. But great matches to wrap up the show with all the lucha libre. Kingdom wins, of course, to stay strong in the tag division, but WOW did Mike get bloody. And great stuff out of Fenix and Gravity, though they had an awful cut to the crowd when Gravity hit that facebuster. That particular part of the crowd did not care, it was obvious on their face, and how did they not edit that out?
My Score: 8.6/10

He is thankful that the people of Mexico have invited AEW into their home tonight! The fans cheer, and Hangman thanks them for the collaboration of AEW & CMLL.

As Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway make their way out, #BigStoke has a mic and he has them cut the music. Stokely has some good news and some bad news. Bad news: Due to circumstances beyond his control, Cash Wheeler cannot be here tonight. That’s the bad news. The good news is, one half of FTR is here tonight in the great Dax the Ax!

Will The CEO only add to her treasury when she and- Wait, speaking of Toni Storm, she’s on the tron! “She’s the kind of woman who always has money on her mind and someone else on her lips. She’s the kind of woman mother takes home to you. With thighs as big as the world and long as a wet dream. One thing she did know how to hold the gold, and not the Acapulco kind, either. She had a date with a Chief Executive Officer who wanted a kiss, but one belt too many.
“Deepthroat some tabasco, baby, it’s time to turn up the heat. There was one chance in a million she would bump into her past, but like everything out of the past, it was all behind her now.” The fans cheer as the noir narration ends, because surprise!

Moxley is frozen in place, and now The Opps & Ospreay get in the ring! The Maniac decides discretion is the better part of valor, and The Death Riders are in retreat. But there’s no running from what’s coming! 24 days remain before All In, will they be the last 24 days Moxley has as champion?
My Thoughts:
Awesome night for AEW’s first show in Mexico, even with things going about how I expected. For one, Mone of course won the title, because why else would they even do this match if not to give her one more belt? Though, what’s wild is that she picked up another belt without much hype or press from AEW. I guess European Wrestling Alliance hopes this gets them some attention. But good stuff with Toni Storm’s noir video and the sneak attack. And I would hope Toni retains the title at All In to keep Mone from going Ultimo Dragon just yet.
Cash Wheeler and Claudio Castagnoli both had travel issues, so I understand subbing people in. But did a 12 Man Tag really need to become a 14 Man Tag for it? And seeing as how I don’t cover CMLL’s own programming, I have NO idea why Atlantis Senior & Junior are getting booed. Is it a “Cena Wins LOL” situation where Junior is winning too much? That’s the only thing I can really think of offhand. But naturally, the Faces of that match won, as The Don Callis Family was rolling last week and needed humbling. I would think we still get Adam Cole VS Kyle Fletcher 2 now, and maybe Kyle wins the title so that the Don Callis Family has something.
Although, Callis seems to be bringing Okada into the fold for whatever reason, so he could end up bringing the “Unified” Continental & International Championship to the family. Okada VS Briscoe was great, and naturally Okada got the win. Mistico VS MJF was great stuff, up until MJF gave up and gave Mistico the win there. I know MJF loves getting heat, but him being the first man to snatch Mistico’s mask away like that is some HUGE heat. Also, I think I said it way back during some feud Penta had in AEW, but are masks really sacred if they’re willing to let them get ripped, stretched, and even yanked away? Or has that been lucha libre kayfabe all along? Either way, great stuff with JetSpeed and the other luchadores showing up, lots of matches set up with that.
Great Fatal 4 Way, and great win for Hologram to stay undefeated, but I will again criticize needing to do money prizes for these things. They should’ve set Hologram up for a title match twice over by now but TK is apparently making Hologram his top undefeated guy. Like if Goldberg was more than just big and strong and could actually do stuff… Also, while they obviously didn’t work together the entire time, I just feel like Ricochet having Lio Rush & Action Andretti become his crew (what with them being CRU and all) is the right move. Or perhaps this story of finding a faction is going to be an ongoing gag that no one likes Ricochet and would never follow him.
Then a great 10 Man Tag main event, though a little redundant considering Anarchy in the Arena was only a few weeks ago. Still good stuff for everybody, especially Mortos since he got to sub in for Claudio. Of course Marina gets involved so that the Heels win, but great stuff with Hangman going after Moxley. Hangman did a great job in his promo speaking Espanol to show respect to the fans. Naturally, Moxley gets away, that’s his whole thing. I really hope Ospreay, Swerve and The Opps keep the Death Riders and Bucks at bay so Hangman doesn’t get screwed over at All In. It’d be garbage if, after all this time and energy, it doesn’t pay off with Hangman as the triumphant hero.
My Score: 9/10
