Darby Allin speaks.
“I left Seattle in 2017, because I knew if I wanted to get any better, I had to go. And everybody told me there was a guy named AR Fox in Atlanta. I packed up everything I had in Seattle, and I started sleeping in my car in Atlanta. It was the first day in the wrestling school, I went up to Fox and I said, ‘Yo, how often do you train like this?’ He said, ‘Every single day.’ That’s the thing about Fox, I never met anyone as driven or passionate as him. He’s the type of guy that will shop up at 10 in the morning and not leave until 11 at night. And I knew I had to surround myself with a guy like that if I wanted to get any better in wrestling.”
Fox then came up to Darby a few months later and asked where Darby was staying. And Darby said it was in the parking garage. Fox asked, “What’re you doing?” And Darby could only say he had no idea, he was just winging it. Fox had Darby move in with him, for free. Never charged Darby a damn thing cuz he knew Darby didn’t have the money. But it was crazy, because everything started clicking. If someone deserves a short, it is Fox. That’s crazy to say, but without Fox, there might not be a Darby Allin.
AEW International Championship: Orange Cassidy VS AR Fox!
The Freshly Squeezed fighting champion is doing a favor for Darby Allin by giving a great guy a golden opportunity. But will Fox make the most of it by becoming the NEW International Champion? Or will Cassidy continue his impressive streak?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if this is the moment AR takes over the Whole Fox’n Show!
The bell rings and fans rally up and duel, “FRESHLY SQUEEZED!” “A R FOX!” Fox offers a handshake, and Cassidy accepts, though rather lazily. They tie up, Fox puts Cassidy on ropes but the ref calls the break. Fox lets off, the two go again, and Fox puts Cassidy on ropes, only for Cassidy to turn it around. Cassidy lets off, and goes to put his hands in his pocket! Fox stops that, waistlocks, but Cassidy reaches back to hook a leg. Fox wrenches Cassidy around the other way, keeps Cassidy from ropes, so Cassidy rolls, lies there, attempts a kip up but it doesn’t really work out. So Fox yanks Cassidy up but Cassidy uses that to headlock!
Fox wrenches out, Cassidy wrenches back, and Cassidy keeps on the wristlock. Fox rolls, kips and cartwheels to then wrench and hammerlock and snapmare. Fox body scissors and he puts on the squeeze! Fans rally as Cassidy endures and reaches out. Fox keeps him from the ropes, Cassidy moves around inside the scissors and reaches up, to then put his hands in his pockets! And then Cassidy wriggles free and kips up! Fans fire up but Fox trips Cassidy! Fox runs, Cassidy ducks the leap, then keeps moving, NO-HANDS ARM-DRAG, but Fox handsprings through! Fox hurdles, Cassidy leaps over, but Fox blocks shotgun into jackknife bridge, TWO!
ORANGE- NO, Fox ducks the punch to handspring and PELE! Cassidy staggers and goes to a corner, Fox runs in and back elbows! Fans fire up as Fox snapmares and rolls, but Cassidy avoids the cutter! Cassidy bails out and fans rally behind Fox as the ring count climbs. Fox rallies the fans more, but Cassidy stays out of Fox’s sights. Cassidy eggs Fox on, Fox builds speed, but again Cassidy moves out of the way. Cassidy continues to taunt Fox, Fox builds speed again, and this time Fox tumbles up and out to go up the corner! MOONSAULT! Direct hit and fans fire up again! Cassidy flounders but Fox brings him up and into the ring.
Fox aims from the corner, climbs up, and he leaps, but Cassidy gets under! Fox rolls through, slips to the apron and trips Cassidy to then slingshot and roll through to a facelock!

Fox facelocks again, Cassidy wrenches out, ducks ‘n’ dodges, tilt-o-whirls again, but Fox again blocks! Fox suplexes to an ANARCHY BRAINBUSTER! Cover, TWO!

Cassidy clutches his neck as he crawls, but Fox goes out the side. Fox BOOTS Cassidy down, stalks him around the way, and BOOTS him again! Cassidy hobbles along, Fox refreshes the ring count, and then boots, but Cassidy blocks it! Cassidy throws the foot into railing! And then does it again! Cassidy rolls into the ring to get away from Fox but Fox hobbles in after him. Cassidy runs in, but into a CUTTER!! Cover, TWO!! Cassidy is still in this but Fox keeps his cool. Fox stalks Cassidy, drags him up, and puts him on ropes. Fox CHOKES Cassidy, the ref counts, but Fox lets off. Fox then runs side to side, SLIDE ATTACK! Fox hurries back in to cover, TWO!
Fox keeps his cool as he JAMS Cassidy in the shoulder! Cassidy crawls, fans rally up, and Fox drags Cassidy up to whip him to the corner. Fox runs in, A-LIST LARIAT! Cassidy sits down, Fox slips out and skins the cat to SWINGING DROPKICK! Cover, ONE!! Cassidy is hanging tough, as he has his whole reign, but Fox drags him back up. Fox turns Cassidy for a NECKBREAKER! Fox holds on to drag Cassidy back up, and turns him for another NECKBREAKER! Fox still holds on, and Dynamite returns to single picture as Fox turns Cassidy again! But Cassidy hooks the arms!
Fox fights the backslide while fans duel! Cassidy fights the counter backslide, spins Fox around, and dropkicks Fox’s legs out! Fox BOOTS Cassidy in return! Cassidy BOOTS Fox right back! Fox BOOTS Cassidy again! Cassidy BOOTS Fox again! Fox BOOTS, Cassidy shakes his head as he staggers around. Fans fire up and Cassidy yells, DOUBLE BOOTS hit! Cassidy runs in, Fox dodges, but Cassidy denies the stunner! But then Fox denies a stunner! DOUBLE NECKBREAKER!? Fans fire up as both men are down! Cassidy clutches his neck and rolls away to a corner. Fans rally up and Fox watches Cassidy.
Fox runs in but Cassidy ELBOWS him! Cassidy boots but Fox blocks to kick and ROCK and whip! Cassidy tumbles up and out, stops Fox and bumps him off buckles! And then side to side for another!

Cassidy flounders, Fox has him in ropes, DRAPING DDT!! Cover, TWO!!! Cassidy survives but Fox is right back up top! 450 but Fox has to roll through! Cassidy sneaks up to ghost pin! TWO!!! Fox gets free, but Cassidy feints Orange Punch to make Fox go Matrix prematurely! And then Cassidy gets Fox’s leg, standing toehold and then a roll through, to a wrench and hook, MOUSE TRAP! CASSIDY WINS!
Winner: Orange Cassidy, by pinfall (still AEW International Champion)
An outside-the-box way of taking that win, this is how Cassidy has kept his reign going through a historic 27 defenses! But Cassidy shows Fox respect in the end, as Cassidy gives Fox the sunglasses! But then Fox BREAKS the sunglasses?! And he DECKS Cassidy!! Fans are stunned! Even Fox seems in shock over his own actions! Fox gets outta there, but Darby Allin shows up! Darby shoves Fox and asks what the hell! Darby put his name on Fox, asked for this request as a friend, and THIS is what Fox does?! Fox apologizes to Darby, but Darby says that is embarrassing! He should’ve just taken the loss!
Fox says he knows all that, but he can’t explain it himself. Darby tells Fox to get to the back and cool off, but what happens between these old friends next? As for Cassidy, he gathers himself, only for JON MOXLEY to attack!! The Maniac is pissed at Cassidy for what happened at Death Before Dishonor between Cassidy & Best Friends and Moxley’s friends in the Blackpool Combat Club! And for that, Moxley hits Cassidy with DEATH RIDER!! Moxley storms off to the back to prepare for tonight’s Triple Threat Tag main event, will he and Claudio Castagnoli do even more damage to Best Friends?
Next week is DYNAMITE 200!
A massive milestone that marks the almost four year history of AEW! More of what is planned will be announced this week, who will join in on the celebration of this wrestling revolution?
Backstage interview with Chris Jericho & Don Callis.
Renee Paquette is with The Ocho and the zero, and notes that things are going in the right direction for Jericho to join the Don Callis Family. Don requested this time, what does he have to say? “The outpouring of interesting from fans, from media, about just the potential of The Greatest Of All Time, Chris Jericho, joining the Don Callis Family, has led me to believe that Chris, we gotta give the people a little something. No pressure. But I have taken the liberty of arranging a situation where you can be in a tag team match with your partner, Takeshita, the guy that you’ve said is the future of professional wrestling.”
Imagine that dream team! Jericho & Takeshita, The Family, in a match together! “Doesn’t that get the creative juices going?” Jericho says Takeshita is amazing, so yeah, he’ll give that a try. And Callis says the best part is, their opponents will be Daniel Garcia & Sammy Guevara! Wait, Danny & Sammy? Well, Callis knows Jericho wants those two to spread their wings and try to fly on their own. So this is perfect, really! Jericho is hesitant, but Callis insists it’ll be great. Done deal? Jericho will do it. Fantastic! To commemorate this next step, Callis also took the liberty of commissioning some artwork to immortalize their 1995 promo with Bad News Allen.
Callis shows it off, “a couple of gods at play, just like we were in the 90s.” Bad News Allen is faintly in the background, watching from Heaven as it were, while Jericho and Callis flex in leather pants atop a mountain. Jericho says it is amazing, but kinda big, it’s not like Jericho can just carry that around with him all day. Callis will have it taken care of, he knows the perfect place to hang it. Just do your thing, Jericho. Callis heads out, but is Jericho starting to regret reuniting with his old friend?
Hook has a message.
Hook has the FTW Championship belt as he sits on a subway bench. A train passes by, and the belt is gone. Then another train passes by, and Hook is gone. Is Hook saying he’s nothing without the title? Or is he saying he’s coming back for it?
Blackpool Combat Club speaks.
Claudio says this is a “Public Service Announcement for all you kids at home: Do not play with fire. Here’s a Public Service Announcement for around here: Don’t mess with the Blackpool Combat Club! Pac, Bastard, if you think that what you pulled at Blood & Guts, the beating that you got at Death Before Dishonor at my hands was anything but the beginning, you are sorely mistaken! You couldn’t even take that like a man. So…” Moxley steps in to say “That right there is what happens when you try to flex on my friends when I’m not even in the building! Come down like Clint Eastwood with your denim wearing ass.
“If there’s anybody else out there that thinks they’re just the coolest~ cat in the room, here’s a warning: stay in your lane. Lucha Brothers, Best Friends, stop playing with explosives. You’re gonna pay for Pac’s mistake and you’re gonna get hurt.” The BCC heads out, will they tear up two teams in one match tonight?
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
He welcomes the NEW FTW Champion… Jack Perry. Fans boo as Beethoven’s Fifth heralds the entrance of “Hollywood” Jack Perry, and he walks in mocking Hook’s look! He even has a new shirt that says “I Beat Hook.” Jack blows a kiss to Taz on commentary as he drags the FTW Championship along the ground. Jack steps into the ring and Schiavone notes how Jack promised to refocus and bring home a world title. He did that, he is the FTW Champion, but he can hear what the fans all thing of it. The fans boo and Jack acts confused. Schiavone says the fans don’t accept Jack beat hook, but Schiavone says he did beat Hook.
Jack says, “You’re damn right I beat Hook! And after one loss, this guy realized he can’t hang with the big boys. And he went home, and he got himself on a train to nowhere.” Fans boo harder but Jack says “When I said I was gonna win myself a championship… I sure as hell wasn’t talking about this one.” The fans keep booing but Jack ignores them to say, “This championship was created in a second-class company, full of scumbags like all of you!” Fans boo more, they won’t let ECW be insulted! Jack says this title has never been recognized, but as soon as he put his hands on it, it became the real deal! Because JACK is real, and he is that damn good!
Jack says he is the greatest wrestler to be within 100 feet of this belt! And as a matter of fact, Jack tells Taz he’d run circles around Taz and all his “dirtbag friends” from back in the day! Taz laughs that off, but someone else walks out. Jerry Lynn tells “Jungle” that that’s enough. Jack says Jerry needs to check that pager. “Jungle Boy” ain’t here anymore. This is Jack Perry! Fans cheer Jerry as he says it doesn’t matter what Jack calls himself. Jerry will remind Jack of one thing: In ECW, they paved the way for this generation! Fans cheer that! Jerry says without ECW, there is no Jungle Boy! So go ahead, keep running that mouth, and you’ll get your ass kicked!
Jack is confused again. His ass kicked? Is that so? He’d like to see who’d do that. Jerry drops the mic to throw down the gauntlet! Jack says okay, okay, hold on. He isn’t dressed for a match right now, relax. They do this on Jack’s time. But if Jerry’s feeling so ballsy, how about next week, Jerry can get in Jack’s ring, and we see who gets their ass kicked. Jack wants to do this big on the 200th episode of Dynamite, but will that only make his comeuppance even more humbling?
Backstage interview with Britt Baker.
Renee is with the former AEW Women’s World Champion, and says she is in action tonight against Taya Valkyrie, who called The Doctor out on Collision. Taya had some choice words for Britt, so what is her reaction? Britt first thanks Renee for reminding the that she IS a former AEW Women’s World Champion, the Face of the Women’s Division. And also, Baddest Bitch on the Block, but it’s okay if you forgot. Britt wants Taya to know that she’d be lying if she said she wasn’t a little surprised that Taya called her out. But thanks! Because now Britt is excited for a first-time-ever match against someone she truly does respect and admire.
But Taya, if you wanna swim with the sharks, Britt’s gonna drag you to the deep end. And who better to beat than Taya to remind everyone that TBS is #TheBrittShow? Renee wishes Britt luck tonight, but will the DMD once again be the Face of AEW?
PAC VS Gravity!
The Bastard used to be the Man Gravity Forgot, but Gravity is here to show no one forgets him! Will Pac defy Gravity to send a message to everyone wanting to mess with Death Triangle? Or will this be where he comes crashing down to Earth?
The bell rings and Pac tries to “remind” Gravity who he is! But Gravity says he forgot. Pac smooths his hair back, shows off his physique, and Gravity is still unsure. Fans chant “HE FORGOT YOU!” Pac gets “offended” that Gravity can’t remember him, and swings! Gravity dodges to DROPKICK! Fans fire up, Gravity runs in to go up and Arabian Press off the ropes, to then DROPKICK Pac again! Fans fire up with Gravity while Pac shakes out the stars. Gravity runs in but Pac puts him up and out! Pac swings but Gravity shoulders in! Gravity slingshots to Arabian Press, then he spins Pac around to ROCK him, and DROPKICK him again!
Fans fire up as Pac bails out! Pac is seething, the ring count starts, and Gravity eggs Pac on. Pac slides in but Gravity slides out! Gravity now dares Pac to come outside. Pac slides out, Gravity slides back in! They keep moving in this cat ‘n’ mouse game, but Pac WRECKS Gravity with a dropkick in the ropes! Fans fire up as Pac goes out to drag Gravity up. Pac brings Gravity around, and whips, but Gravity reverses to send Pac into railing! Pac storms up on Gravity, but into a POWERSLAMÂ to the floor! Gravity fires up, and handstands on the apron, for the IMPLODER PLANKING SPLASH! Fans fire up as Gravity gets in the ring.
Gravity slow-motion space walks, the ring count climbs, and fans fire up as Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Pac drags himself up, slides in, but then slides out, refreshing the count. Pac goes around the way, Gravity waits on him, and Pac hurries back into the ring. The two tie up, Pac kicks low and bumps Gravity off buckles! Gravity falls back, and Pac stands on Gravity’s head! The ref counts, Pac steps off and soaks up the heat. Pac goes back to Gravity, drags him up, and bumps him off buckles! Pac digs his boots in, the ref counts, but Pac lets off at 4 to soak up more heat. Pac pretends he can’t hear the fans, then he whips Gravity corner to corner hard! Pac then runs in to BOOT Gravity down! Pac soaks up more heat while Gravity stirs.
Pac steps on Gravity’s head, the ref counts, and Pac steps off at 4. Gravity goes back to the corner, Pac stomps him, then drags him up. Pac mocks the fans again, and he headlocks to grind Gravity down. Pac won’t let Albany have any lucha libre. Gravity endures, pushes his forearm into Pac’s face, but Pac shakes his head and squeezes tighter. Gravity fights up as Dynamite returns to single picture, but Pac DECKS him! Pac stalks Gravity to a corner, the BCC is watching backstage, and Pac stands Gravity up. Pac talks trash on Gravity, “Forget me not!” And he pie faces Gravity! And then again!
Pac runs corner to corner, but Gravity BOOTS him! Gravity BOOTS again, Pac staggers, and then Gravity BOOTS P ac down! Gravity handsprings over, goes up the other corner, and CROSSBODIES! Cover, TWO!! Pac escapes, dodges the lariat and SOBATS! And front kicks! And SOBATS again! Pac runs to SHOTGUN BOOT! Fans fire up as Gravity flounders to a corner. Pac stomps up to stomp Gravity again and again, then digs his boots in! The ref counts, Pac stands Gravity up and puts him on the top rope. Pac climbs up to stand Gravity up, for a SUPER BRAINBUSTER!! Fans are thunderous while both men are down!
Pac crawls to Gravity, and pushes him over! BRUTALIZER! Gravity TAPS, Pac wins!!
Winner: PAC, by submission
The Bastard holds on to make Gravity suffer! The ref reprimands, Pac lets go, and he tells Gravity to never forget him! The BCC is brutal, but will Pac show them he can be even worse?
Backstage interview with MJF & Adam Cole.
It was after their win last week that Renee was with the NEW #1 contenders to the AEW World Tag Team Champions, and she congratulated them on winning the Blind Eliminator Tag Team Tournament. They will face FTR on Saturday, July 29th, on Collision! How are they feeling? Cole starts but MJF interrupts to tell FTR that he liked them better when they were his lackeys. To be honest, that was the pinnacle of their career. Cash, rocking a mullet in 2023? Very brave. Business up front, party in the back. But every time Cash makes eye contact with a woman, all they wanna do is yack!
Dax… MJF is so sick of your Mr. Clean meets Yosemite Sam lookin’ ass, standing in front of this camera, talking into this microphone, saying the same stuff over and over and over again. “Ah love mah wife, ah love mah baby daughter, ah love this biz-ness! No flips, just fists!” Yeah? Well here’s what’s gonna happen. MJF is gonna take his fist on July 29th, Collision in Hartford, CT, and MJF is gonna punch Dax so hard in the mouth he will have no choice but to spit out CM Punk’s jockstrap!! Because MJF & Cole are winning those tag titles! There are only three initials in this sport that matter! It ain’t F T R, it is M J F! Because we’re better than you, BAYBAY!
And Cole would like to add, truth be told, something to MJF. When this tournament started, it was about winning gold and become champions. But if he’s to be completely honest, it has become about friendship. Never in a million years did Cole think he would be friends with MJF. That he’d enjoy this so much. But he has. So to make it very clear because otherwise, Cole won’t sleep well tonight. MJF has nothing to worry about when it comes to the AEW World Championship, Cole was just handing it back to him. But MJF has given Cole his friendship and that means the world to him. MJF isn’t just a friend to Cole, or even a close friend. MJF is becoming a best friend, and Cole means that.
MJF says he has been thinking about this. Win, lose or draw, after July 29th, MJF wants Cole to know he is giving him a rematch for this title, because he knows how much that means to Cole. Whoa, is MJF serious? He means that? But Roderick Strong rushes in! Roddy says he sees the look in MJF’s eyes when he says that! Roddy shoves MJF, Cole tells Roddy to stop, but Roddy says MJF is just waiting to turn on Cole! Cole asks MJF to give him and Roddy a second alone. MJF heads out and says Roddy’s lucky he’s Cole’s friend. Roddy says “You gotta be kidding me,” but Cole tells Roddy he’s gotta be kidding.
Cole tells Roddy he loves him like a brother, he’d do anything for Roddy, but Roddy is acting insane! Roddy’s being crazy and possessive! He’s pushing Cole away. Cole has other friends, Roddy. And Roddy needs to trust Cole if he still wants to be a friend. Cole’s gonna go talk with Max. Roddy pulls on Cole’s arm but Cole tells him “Hey! Boundaries!” Cole heads out, but Roddy is still convinced that MJF is the snake waiting to strike. Will Roddy be proven right this Saturday? Or will he be as shocked as anyone when MJF & Cole become tag team champions?
Backstage interview with FTR.
Also after last week’s Dynamite, Renee interviewed Cash & Dax to say they are facing the team of MJF & Adam Cole on Collision for the tag titles. How do they feel knowing that this is the team they’re facing? Cash says he’ll be honest, he’s excited. But part of him feels bad because Cole is getting dragged into this. Cash wants Cole to know, should he watch this, that Cash does like Cole, does respect Cole, and even thinks Cole is one of the best today. But know that Cash hates Maxwell Jacob Friedman because he knows Maxwell Jacob Friedman, who is a terrible human being. MJF calls himself a generational talent, but he is a generational ass kisser.
Cash says he and Dax are generational ass kickers. They’ve been with MJF through The Pinnacle, they saw how he is backstage, and anyone that has ever been with MJF, including his former fiancée, when she got to know the real MJF, she left. So what does that say about MJF? Cole, sorry, but Hartford, July 29th, FTR has to make sure MJF & Cole learn, and that MJF knows, you never mess with FTR. Dax says he also kinda likes Cole, he’s an okay guy. But Cole has a win over Dax and that don’t sit right with Dax. Dax ain’t gonna let it be 2-0 for Cole. And Dax could yell and scream all day about MJF but he won’t. He won’t get “gimmicked up” like MJF does, this is real-life.
Dax is sure MJF made fun of his accent, that must be funny to a guy like MJF. But Dax watched that match, he saw the little dance. That was “funny,” in that it is hilarious how MJF is mocking tag team wrestling and out of the AEW World Tag Team Championships. Hartford, Collision, nuh-uh. No dance routines, no fun and games, no mocking pro-wrestling. This is gonna be a fight. If Dax tells MJF right now, sorry to Cole because yeah, he’s getting dragged into this. But if Dax said he is gonna beat MJF’s ass, that’s an understatement. Dax is gonna beat the SH*T outta MJF! Dax apologizes, shouldn’t say that with his daughter watching, but he dares MJF…
Dax anticipates MJF saying something about his wife and daughter. If MJF did that, Dax is gonna rip MJF’s eyes out. This is for the tag titles, but this is how Dax feeds his family, and yes he loves this business. And if he’s gotta beat MJF on July 29th, if FTR has to beat MJF on July 29th, then that’s what they’ll do. Sorry, Adam. #TopGuysOut.
Darby Allin w/ Nick Wayne VS Swerve Strickland w/ Prince Nana!
Mr. Red beat Mr. Blue in the Royal Rampage, and that doesn’t sit well with Mr. Blue! Will Swerve make sure Darby doesn’t even get to go All Out and challenge for the TNT Championship? Or will this be Darby’s payback for Swerve screwing him out of the tag title match and then some?
The bell rings and the two circle. The fans rally behind Darby and he ties up with Swerve. They’re in a deadlock and they go around. Swerve puts Darby on the ropes, Darby clinches an arm to wrench, then he headlocks. Swerve endures, powers up but can’t power out as Darby holds tight. Swerve lifts but Darby hits a flying-mare out of it! Fans cheer as Darby grinds Swerve into the mat. Darby pushes the shoulders for a cover, TWO! Swerve stands, throws body shots, and he lifts Darby up and over the ropes. The ref counts as Darby holds on, but Darby lets go at 4. And then slingshots in for a FLYING TAKEOVER!
Swerve fights around, stands up, and Swerve powers Darby to the ropes. Nana says that’s how you do it, but the ref counts. Swerve lets off, but sucker punches low! Swerve snapmares but Darby whips! Swerve flips up and around, whips, but Darby springboards to FLYING ARM-DRAG! Fans fire up, Darby runs in but is put on the apron! Swerve RAMS low, runs and returns, but Darby drops back, only for Swerve to handspring up and out! But Darby is ready and he fires fast hands, HEADBUTTS low, then hops on for a CODE REDÂ to the floor! Fans fire up and Darby hurries to put Swerve in the ring! Cover, TWO!
Fans rally behind Darby while Swerve bails out again. Darby goes out the other side, and he RAMS Swerve into railing, to then CHOP! Darby whips Swerve into the steel steps! Fans fire up while Swerve writhes! The ring count climbs past 5 of 10, but Darby positions the steel steps around. Nana protests, Darby refreshes the count, and Darby runs up to COFFIN SPLASH Swerve against railing! Darby whips, Swerve reverses but Darby leaps over the steps! Swerve uses the steps to get up, FLYING HOUSE CALL!! Fans fire up and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Nana cheers Swerve on, Nick coaches Darby, but Swerve stands first. Swerve drags Darby up and RAMS him into the steps! Darby writhes, but then Swerve stands on Darby and bends him against the steps! The ref reprimands, Swerve steps off and back into the ring, and he soaks up the heat. Darby slides in but Swerve drops knees in the corner! Swerve then drags Darby up and around, wrenches the arm and bends the fingers. Swerve taunts Nick, whose arm is also hurting from Swerve going after him last week. Swerve SPLASHES the arm, jamming up the fingers! Darby writhes to a corner but Swerve soaks up more heat.
Swerve does his dance and Nana joins in, then Swerve goes after Darby to DECK him! Swerve stands on Darby’s face, the ref counts, but Swerve steps off. Swerve sits Darby up, goes up the corner, and FALLING UPPERCUTS! Cover, TWO! Nana argues the count but the count was fair. Swerve stalks Darby back to a corner, toys with him a bit, but Darby throws body shots! So Swerve DECKS him again! Dynamite returns to single picture and fans boo as Swerve flexes. Swerve grins, goes back to Darby, but Darby BOOTS him! Darby jumps over, Swerve rolls with him, JUMPING COMPLETE SHOT!
Swerve then deadlift suplexes Darby high and hard! Cover, TWO! Darby is still in this and fans rally up. Swerve traps one arm, and he bends the other back, but Darby kicks free! Darby whips, Swerve reverses but Darby rolls under the hurdle to sunset flip! TWO, Swerve sits on it, TWO! Darby gets the sunset flip again, TWO! Swerve sits on it, TWO! Darby sunset flips again and adds a jackknife! TWO! Swerve sunset flips but Darby has the legs! LAST SUPPER!! TWO!?!? Swerve powers out and Darby is shocked! Nana assures Swerve he did it in time, but Darby runs in to DIVE! He spears Swerve off the apron, just like how the Royal Rampage ended!
Fans go nuts and the ref checks both men. Darby is somehow okay after that rough landing, and both men rise. “This is Awesome!” as Darby drags Swerve up and into the ring. Darby then crawls after him but Swerve rolls out of the ring! Nana distracts the ref, but Nick drags him down! Darby builds speed and DIVES into a JUMP KNEE!! Swerve takes Darby outta the air and fans lose their minds again! Swerve puts Darby in, climbs up top, KILL STOMPS!! Cover, TWO!??! Darby shocks everyone!!

Darby is stuck up top, Swerve goes to the other side and climbs back up! Swerve fireman’s carries Darby now, SUPER APRON DEATH VALLEY DRIVER!!!! Fans lose their minds and Nana isn’t sure if he should be worried or excited. But Swerve gets himself up and in as the count climbs!
Nick shouts at Darby to get up, we’re at 7 of 10! And then 9! But Nana distracts the ref as someone drags Darby outta the ring and POSTS him!! He was wearing a blue hoodie, but by the look of those camo pants…! Swerve drags Darby in, Nick and Nana fight on the other side, but Swerve half nelsons! J M L DRIVER!! Cover, Swerve wins!!
Winner: Swerve Strickland, by pinfall
And then the mystery man returns, it IS AR Fox! Fox stomps away on his former friend, but Nick runs in to knock Fox down! Nick then RAMS into Swerve and fires off!

Backstage interview with The Jericho Appreciation Society.
Renee is with Matthew Menard, Angelo Parker, Anna Jay and mother-to-be Tay Melo and says this is a rather “disgruntled” JAS. Jericho walks up as Renee reminds us of Jericho teaming with Takeshita under the Callis Family banner against Sammy & Danny next week for Dynamite 200. Jericho asks what’s going on, and everyone says they want to talk. Sure, sure, come on in. They all go into the JAS locker room, cameras follow, and oh look, the painting is there. How nice. Yeah, it’s a gift from Don. But who cares about this painting? How is everything with them? How’s the baby?
Melo says the baby is doing great, but the real question is, what’s going on with Jericho!? Parker brings out his novelty switchblade comb. Jericho gave him that. He holds it out to Jericho, but then draws it back, because he’s not returning it. Yet. This comb means the world to Parker. This crew, this family means the world to all of them! And Parker thinks it means the same to Jericho. But he’s not entirely sure anymore. Anna says if no one else is gonna say it, she will. Jericho is being selfish! Oh, he’s being selfish? Yes! They spent all this time appreciating Jericho, but he has never appreciated them!
So until he does, like Jake Hager said, they can’t give Jericho their all. Anna leads the way out as she, Parker and Tay leave. Menard hangs back, and Jericho asks him if they think this is easy for him. Menard says yeah, looks like it’s pretty easy. So figure it out, and fast. Daddy Magic leaves Jericho alone with the painting, which family is Jericho going to choose?
Britt Baker VS Taya Valkyrie!
The Doctor heard La Wera Loca insulting the quality of her win last week, and has accepted the challenge for a “real” match! Will Britt show Taya that she is still the Face of the AEW Women’s Division?
The bell rings and the two circle. Fans rally up for “D M D! D M D!” and the two tie up. Taya THROWS Britt right down, and then grins as Britt gets up. They go again, Taya waistlocks and SLAMS Britt down to then facelock. Britt wrenches out, headlocks, but Taya picks her up. Britt kicks and flails to get back down, but then Taya powers up to push her away. Britt comes back, dodges a haymaker and headlocks. Taya blocks the takedown, they go to a corner and Britt uses the ropes for a flying takeover! Taya fights back up and lifts, to hit a BIG back suplex! But Britt holds onto the headlock!
Taya fights up again, powers out, and she runs Britt over! Fans boo but Taya just soaks it up. Taya smiles, showing she doesn’t need a dentist. Britt goes to a corner, Taya mocks the “D! M! D!” and runs in to DOUBLE KNEE! Taya stomps Britt, lets off as the ref counts, and Taya drags Britt to a cover. TWO, but Taya drags Britt up. Taya CHOPS Britt, then eggs the fans on.

Taya grins as she looms over Britt, and she soaks up more heat. Britt crawls to a corner, Taya KNEES her down! Taya grabs a leg to KICK it! Then she brings Britt around and bumps her off buckles. Taya stands Britt up again, to CHOP! Taya teases the fans, takes a bow, then goes back to Britt to CHOKE her on the ropes! The ref counts, Taya lets off, and Taya grins as she’s having fun. Britt stands, Taya KICKS her in the leg! Then bumps her off buckles! Taya runs back in but Britt shoots around to roll her up! TWO, and Britt CLOBBERS Taya! Britt keeps moving, SLINGBLADE! Britt still keeps moving, but she runs into a BLUE THUNDER BOMB! Cover, TWO!!
Britt survives and Taya still smiles, but Taya might be a little annoyed with Britt now. Taya grabs the legs, ties them up in an inverted deathlock, and then pulls Britt’s hair to get her in the crossface! Britt endures this modified STF, claws her way forward, but Taya SLAMS her face off the mat! Taya drags Britt up, bumps her off buckles, and elbows her! And clotheslines! The ref reprimands, but Taya sits Britt down and swaggers corner to corner. Dynamite returns to single picture as Taya runs back in, but Britt dodges the double knees! Fans fire up as Britt dodges Taya again, and again, to cravat! Britt throws in knees!
Fans fire up, Britt bumps Taya off buckles, and then Britt storms up to bump her off more buckles! Britt waistlocks, ripcords, and ROLLING ELBOWS! Cover, ONE?!?! Taya is tough and that shocks Britt! Taya pie faces Britt so Britt fires forearms! Taya gives them back, the fans rally as the shots go back and forth! Taya is having fun now, and she throws more shots! Britt gives them back, they just keep going! Taya gets the edge, runs, but Britt follows to ROLLING- NO, Taya dodges to ROUNDHOUSE! Britt stays up to SUPERKICK! Taya wobbles, but blocks the second superkick to KNEE and LARIAT! Cover, TWO!!
Britt is proving tougher than Taya expected, and Britt goes to a corner. Taya storms up but into a BOOT! Britt goes up, shout out to Cole, but Taya turns Panama Sunrise into NORTHERN LIGHTS! Bridging cover, TWO!! Britt survives the counter but Taya wants those legs again! Britt kicks Taya away, and SUPERKICKS! Taya wobbles, Britt goes back up! PANAMA SUNRISE!! Cover, TWO!?!? Britt can’t believe Taya survives, but now it’s time for the glove! Fans fire up as Britt puts that glove on, and she spells it out, “D! M! D!” FISHERMAN- NO, Taya slips out to ROCK, mule kick and KNEE Britt! Taya runs, and SPEARS!!
But Taya isn’t done here, she drags Britt up to chicken wing! But Britt fights it, so Taya half nelson! But Britt fights that suplex to drag Taya down! RINGS OF SATURN!! And then LOCKJAW!!! Taya taps, Britt wins!!
Winner: Britt Baker, by submission
The Doctor just proved why she is STILL a force to be reckoned with in AEW! Will nothing stop Britt from climbing back up to the top?
AEW hears from Nyla Rose and Hikaru Shida.
The Native Beast says, “Choto matte, Shida! Or, hang on a tick. Get it? Cuz we’re going to Wembley? Listen, I dunno why you think you get a shot at Toni Storm, but if you want it, you gotta go through me! I guess you could say we’re destined to Fight Forever.” But the Shining Samurai says this is HER time! “I beat up Toni Storm with my kendo stick, and I am ready to rip the AEW Women’s title off of her. Get outta my way, Nyla Rose. Our history is too long now, and it’s time to finish it.” Nyla VS Shida, one more time, is this Friday on Rampage!
AEW hears from various tag teams.
Jay Lethal says, “Listen up boys, and Ethan Page. The future of the AEW Tag Team Championships is this…” But then Satnam Singh interrupts to say that the titles are theirs! And Sonjay Dutt says, “You know why we’re gonna become AEW Tag Team Champions? Because you got a one-in-a-billion shot of throwing this man over the top rope!” Sonjay laughs it up, but then Prince Nana stands beside Brian Cage & “Big Bill” Morrissey as he says, “Whoever it is, we’re taking the titles, my friends.” But then Brother Zay moans in to say finally, the #MoanEvent is here! You like that? Yeah, Ethan gets it.
But now they get their chance to get their hands on Jay Lethal and “that big doofus, Satnam Singh. And on top of that, we get a chance to become #1 contenders to those tag team championships!” But wait, Matt & Jeff Hardy chime in. Who does Jeff wanna face? FTR? Or Adam Cole & MJF? Jeff says it doesn’t matter! He’s back from the healing process, and the Hardy Boyz are back to win gold! These teams and many more will be battling in an eight team, 16 man battle royal this Friday on Rampage, so who will walk away with the golden tickets?
BREAKING NEWS for Rampage!
On top of that tag team battle royal and the Shida VS Nyla grudge match, Scorpio Sky continues his return against Superbad Kip Sabian! And The Kingdom hop over from ROH to have their Rampage debut! Will Mike Bennett & Matt Taven make their own case for a tag title match in the future?
AEW hears from Buddy Matthews.
The Aussie Juggernaut tells Andrade that he fails to see “the big picture.” But if Andrade wants his mask back that badly, then he will have to scale a ladder “out of Hell” to retrieve it. But should Andrade fail, he will be forced to watch Buddy burn it to ash in front of him. Then his legacy, his heritage, and everything Andrade stands for will go down in flames. Will the House of Black break Andrade’s spirit when they destroy his mask?

But BREAKING NEWS from Tony Khan via commentary! Dynamite 200, an ANYTHING GOES TRIPLE THREAT! Moxley VS Trent VS Penta! The brawl is continuing, will these teams even make it to next week!?
My Thoughts:
This was a wild Dynamite, but once they pointed out next week was episode 200, something about this episode turned into Go-Home Syndrome. So much talking to hype upcoming stuff. Buddy had a good promo but I feel like this should’ve been the first we heard of him and Andrade fighting over the mask in a Ladder match, instead of hearing about it last week and then getting this. And while the MJF, Cole and Roddy stuff was good original material, making FTR do a post show promo to be shown here tonight, ON TOP of them venting on Collision, is redundant. And Dax tried to hide the fact he knew everything MJF said in his, but c’mon, he was basically responding to MJF when these are supposed to be separate moments “after Dynamite.”
Now, I really liked what we got out of the Jericho story. Good promo with Callis, and of course Callis got another strange oil painting. Also, something about that “art” looks like it was AI generated. Though I suppose that’s just how putting the faces of Callis and Jericho on bodies that were several times more ripped than either man have ever been would have that uncanny valley feeling. And good promo from the group still known as The JAS (for now). Anna was definitely in the right calling Jericho out. And that tag match of Jericho & Takeshita VS Guevara & Garcia is going to be the make-or-break moment.
The Don Callis Family does need to grow, but it’d be great if Jericho turned on Takeshita and Callis, only for someone within the JAS to turn on him. And at this point, it feels like Garcia could be the one, so he could shine within the DCF doing his dance and being his own brand of sports…Â enner-tay-ner. Really good promo from Nyla and Shida to set up what is basically a #1 contender’s match to face Toni Storm at All In at Wembley. Either choice is a good choice to face Toni, but Shida does have that story beat where she chose NOT to be an Outcast when Toni & Saraya started that faction, so it’d make sense Shida gets her shot.
Good promos from various tag teams, and oh look, another battle royal. AEW no longer cares about their rankings, they’re just like every other company now. Which in some ways is fine, no one was asking a wrestling company to treat this like real sports. Just about anyone can win the battle royal, and I am glad to see we’ll get a little more Triple J VS Hardy Party interaction than we did in the Royal Rampage, but that means those teams are all out of the running. At this point, give me more Brian Cage & Big Bill, they could have a great rematch with MJF & Cole, or a fresh match-up with FTR.
Great video from Hook, even if it was short. And really good promo from Jack Perry to add Heel Heat over insulting Hook and ECW. Jerry Lynn stepping to Jack was an interesting move, and I’m sure Jack will sucker punch and beat down Jerry next week to prompt Hook to return. That’s a rematch that will definitely be at All Out, but who knows who wins. Good promo from Britt before a really good match with Taya, and I figured Britt would win. I’m a little disappointed there wasn’t more to that, like The Outcasts reaching out to Taya. At the same time, where’s Britt going next? She did say TBS = The Britt Show, a play off Jade’s That B*tch Show, is Jade gonna return to feud with Britt? Is Britt going to feud with Kris Statlander over the TBS title? Both?
As for everything else, AEW does once again shine in their intertwining of stories. Cassidy VS Fox opens the show with an awesome title match. Cassidy wins, that turns Fox Heel, and then Fox also turns on Darby to join up with Swerve in a reunion from their shared past. That is going to be great, I would love for those two to be a Two Man Power Trip here in AEW while Brian Cage, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona continue to dominate ROH, maybe even with Big Bill as a new member in that regard. And then Cassidy joins Best Friends in this building feud between them, Death Triangle and Blackpool Combat Club. That Triple Threat Tag was also awesome, a brawl to close the show is good stuff, and that Triple Threat Anything Goes for next week is big, too. I suppose a trio comes out of this ready for The House of Black and the Trios Championships, can’t wait to see it.
My Score: 8.8/10

Everything you’ve worked for for the last five years in AEW, I’m gonna give you a chance right now. Hey ref, you work for me, get your ass in the ring. We’re going to put the Trios Championships on the line again, right now! Ring the bell!” The fans boo but apparently Moxley has the power to do this. Can Uno, Reynolds & Silver turn the tides to take the power back?
AEW World Trios Championships: Blackpool Combat Club VS The Dark Order!
The bell rings, Silver stands, but Claudio UPERCUTS! Claudio fires fists on Silver, the ref counts but he also has to reprimands Marina for getting too close to Uno and Reynolds.

AEW Continental Championship: Kazuchika Okada VS Kyle O’Reilly!
The Elite is still golden after WrestleDream, but The Rainmaker might’ve taken the wrong tactic with the Violent Artist. Will Kyle kick Okada off the throne? Or will it continue to reign in AEW?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is really elite around here!
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two circle. They feel things out, then Okada backs away. The fans rally for “A E DUB! A E DUB!” for making this a match. Okada and Kyle tie up, Okada waistlocks but Kyle wrenches to wristlock. Okada rolls, wrenches back, and the fans duel. Kyle squats to then spin and drop toehold!

The ref checks Kyle, and BOTB goes back to picture in picture.
Okada shakes out the bad leg as he sits up, and he crawls over to Kyle. Okada drags Kyle by his leg and they go outside, for Okada to RAM Kyle into railing! The fans fire up, and Okada brings Kyle around to RAM him into the railing again. Okada paces, brings Kyle up again, and puts him in the ring. Okada stalks Kyle, brings him up, and bumps him off buckles again. Okada hobbles away, but then comes back to whip corner to corner. Kyle hits buckles hard again, and Okada runs up to ELBOW! The fans cheer and Okada looms over Kyle again. Okada scuffs Kyle, eggs him on, and Kyle rises up. Kyle swings, but into the MONEY CLIP!
Okada squeezes tight, Kyle flails, and Battle of the Belts goes to break!
BOTB returns and Okada SHOTGUNS Kyle down! The fans fire up while the ref checks both men. Okada and Kyle both stir, so a standing count starts. Kyle pushes himself up while Okada slowly sits up. We hit 5 of 10, but both men stand. Okada scoops to TOMB- NO, Kyle slips free, UPPERCUTS, and has the GUILLOTINE FACELOCK as we hear the five minute warning! Okada endures, even as Kyle thrashes him!

Okada kicks low and DDTS to the floor! Okada grins, he’s now just playing to run out the clock. Okada drags Kyle up, puts him in the ring, and then steps back in.

Dralistico says they will BURN! And then we see Mortos CHOKING Hologram!! The minotaur will not let it go that he lost the Best 2 Out of 3 Falls to Hologram at WrestleDream! Rush says remember: When you mess with the bull, you get the horns! LFI stands on Hologram and throw up the fists, who will be next to get those fists in their face?

Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Lexy Nair is with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett, but also Beast Mortos. They wanted to talk with him, but are mostly feeding him fried chicken… Roddy says, “BEEEAST! Thanks for joining us.” Bennett gives Mortos more meat to eat, and Roddy says they really need to talk. What is going on with Mortos? Something seems off. Mortos growls but Bennett says no, he’s just confused. Mortos taking out Hologram like that? Not cool. Taven can’t believe LFI got Mortos to wear a polo shirt! Mortos never even wore a shirt when hanging out with The Kingdom. Not cool! And what is Mortos doing fisting (with) two other dudes? Really not cool.
But the most disappointing thing of all, is that this is all happening without The Kingdom! Roddy says they’re not mad, just disappointed. The Kingdom leaves but did Mortos even care what they said while chowing down on meat? If they keep trying to get Mortos back, will LFI make The Kingdom one of their targets?
AEW Women’s World Championship Title Eliminator: Mariah May VS Anna Jay!
While there were some legitimate complaints made by the AEW Women’s World Champion, she doesn’t really help herself when she looks down on the rest of the roster. Will The Glamour continue to grow her ego here tonight? Or will Anna prove she’s the real Star of the Show?

Anna wobbles, Mariah reels her in! Fireman’s carry, but Anna slips free! MOUSE TRAP! ANNA WINS!!
Winner: Anna Jay, by pinfall (NEW #1 Contender to the AEW Women’s World Champion)
Mariah is speechless! She thought Anna was unworthy, and yet that arrogance is why Anna won! And Tony Khan calls in to say we don’t have to wait long! Two weeks from now, Collision in Philadelphia, Mariah May VS Anna Jay, with the title on the line! Will Mariah avenge herself in the rematch? Or will there truly be a new Star of the Show?
My Thoughts:
A great Battle of the Belts, especially with the events of Collision spilling over. BCC beating down Top Flight, fighting Dark Order, and then having another match was all great stuff to really get heat on them. And speaking of the Collision crossover, great bit with Garcia & Private Party rushing out there, and then Cassidy eventually going out there once BCC was on the retreat. As we saw for Collision, the other Faces are expecting Cassidy to step up but he is reluctant to, given his history with the various members of BCC. At some point, The Conglomeration members might also think Cassidy should step up, and he’ll be compelled to fight.
Speaking of Conglomeration, great match from Okada VS O’Reilly, and I do appreciate them pushing this close to the time limit. Great win for Okada, and his card is wide open now, ready to face just about anyone. LFI had a very good promo to follow up what they did on Collision, but also to show Hologram is not out of the woods with them. Hologram might even be the third man alongside FTR to fight the full LFI. Mortos and Undisputed Kingdom also had a great promo together, very funny stuff. That’s also a Six Man Tag we could see, and just about any trio could come out of this to challenge BCC next.
Really good first showing for the #MurderMachines, Archer & Cage, but that combo Blackout Powerbomb needs some work to smooth out the wrinkles. I feel like they’ll be stepping to Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara for the ROH World Tag Team Championships first, given The Bucks are Heels. And great main event from Mariah VS Anna. I am very pleased to see they had Anna win here. It works for Mariah’s character as her arrogance cost her, and now we’ll get an even better title match in a couple weeks. I don’t see Anna winning that one, though, because again, we need to see Mina Shirakawa work her way to the title so she and Mariah can fight it out.
My Score: 8.7/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Jon Moxley speaks.
“Regarding the AEW World Championship, nothing has changed. Nothing is different. Nothing changed last Saturday night, nothing has changed since the moment I arrived in AEW. Nobody ‘owns’ that belt, it doesn’t belong to anybody. It’s not for Bryan Danielson or anybody else. It’s for the position that only man has sat in that chair. That is me. Somebody spent a lot of money on that belt and it’s really supposed to mean something. It’s just gold and leather, but when I look at it, it is the symbol of everything I hate in this sport. It’s the symbol of everything I’ve been fighting against for years. Everything that AEW was not supposed to be.
“If nobody else is going to say it, I’ll say it. Nothing comes for free in this world. But tonight, we give this Top Flight a gift. A shot at the World Trios Championships, won’t that be so great? They think they’re gonna hit a button, ride up an elevator to the top of this sport, that’s not how this works. There is no elevator. You are standing at the foot of a mountain, and the mountain looks like this.” Moxley points to Pac, Claudio and Yuta in turn. “We will win this war, cuz our cause is just, and our power is pure, and our enemies are weak in spirit. It’s a big night for you, Top Flight, but it is not your coronation. Tonight is a public execution.”
The Maniac paces, and the warning has been issued. Will Action, Darius & Dante still go through with the match?
Ricochet VS AR Fox!
The One & Only wants everyone to understand that to be The Best in the World, you don’t say it, you show it! So then will Ricochet show everyone in AEW and around the world that he IS the best? Or will he just be a guest star on the Whole Fox’n Show?
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two circle. They tie up, are in a deadlock, then break. Ricochet trips Fox, rolls him to whip him, but Fox reverses.

That match was definitely #OuttaThisWorld, and Ricochet comes out on top! Ricochet grabs a mic to say, “Stockton, what’s good?” Ricochet wants to say that he is here in AEW because this is where the BESTÂ WRESTLE! The fans cheer that! Ricochet says he has yet to be pinned or submitted in this ring. And that’s funny, because there’s someone who keeps putting their nose in his business. The fans should know who. Konosuke Takeshita, it doesn’t matter where you go. You may be champion, but you can go to Canada, Mexico, Japan, or somewhere in the US. Wherever Takeshita goes, Ricochet will be waiting to kick his ass!
Ricochet says it doesn’t matter who has his back, from Don Callis to Kyle Fletcher, because Ricochet will knock down opponent after opponent until he gets Takeshita 1v1 in this ring to become the NEW International Champion! The fans rally behind Ricochet, and Ricochet knows they know. They know that Ricochet isn’t from this planet, he is Outta This World! The fans fire up, but when and where will The One & Only take on The Alpha?
Daniel Garcia & Private Party speak.
Red Death says Moxley and his crew wanna come in and take over AEW. Then they’ve got The Young Bucks & Jack Perry just sitting back, letting it happen. They act like it’s all okay. It’s not. And the thing is, The Elite isn’t willing to handle the responsibility it takes to truly handle those championships. But good news! He and Private Party will relieve them of their duties. Garcia says Zay to talk to ’em. Kassidy says the word isn’t complicit, it is complacent. The Bucks have become complacent cowards! Private Party will not sit back and watch BCC take over AEW. AEW changed Kassidy’s life!
Zay would rather die fighting than watch AEW go down in flames. And if Private Party has to lead by example by beating The Elite’s asses and become the NEW AEW World Tag Team Champions, then so be it! Marq Quen says there you have it. He can’t paint a better picture. And before they beat The Elite’s asses on Dynamite, there’s business to handle tonight. Stockton, the mission continues, let’s get it! Garcia, Quen & Zay are ready, but will the Premier Athletes stand in their way?
Kris Statlander VS Harley Cameron!
The Galaxy’s Greatest is now #BornAgainKristen, and she wants to return to what made her great in the first place. But will she keep her comeback going? Or will this wacky Aussie show one of her many talents is winning?
The bell rings, Kris and Harley circle, and then they step up. Harley calls for a knuckle lock, Kris accepts, and then Harley pokes Kris in the eyes! But Kris denies Sole Food!

But Harley RANAS it down! TWO! Kris escapes, bypasses Harley, and then scoops her, for a BACKBREAKER! Kris fires up and the fans fire up with her!

DEADLIFT GERMAN! Harley flounders, Kris runs in at the corner, UPPERCUT! Kris goes side to side, KNEE! Kris reels Harley in, FISHERMAN DRIVER!! But then Kris lines up another shot, DISCUS LARIAT! That’s not the end, she scoops and tucks Harley, STATURDAY NIGHT FEVER! Cover, Kris wins!
Winner: Kris Statlander, by pinfall
Kris wins but she’s not done as she grabs the mic. “One thing about me is that I am never afraid to test myself and prove that I am THE toughest and THE strongest here in AEW.” The fans cheer that! Kris says one person has been a real pain in the ass. So Kamille, Kris is calling you out! Time Kamille finally met her match! And as for Mercedes Mone, Kris will make sure you have a front row seat. The Galaxy’s Greatest wants to take on The Brickhouse, but will she make it through that obstacle to then get at The CEO’s TBS Championship?
Six Man Tag: Daniel Garcia & Private Party VS The Premier Athletes!
We just heard from Red Death and friends and they are in a fighting mood. But of course we have to hear from “Smart” Mark Sterling… “Folks, the Premier Athletes have decided to take care of these three punk kids for all the disrespect that they’ve been showing our great EVPs, Matthew & Nicholas Jackson. And of course we’re doing this for an opportunity at what I do best, and that’s climb the corporate ladder!” Now the people here in Stockton are surely just smart enough to play along. When he says, “Athletes!” you say, “Rule!” Nothing else! Hands in. Ohhh~…! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Sterling isn’t that smart is he?
The trios sort out, Tony Nese starts against Isiah Kassidy, and they circle. They feel things out, but then Ariya Daivari gets in to CLOBBER Zay! The fans boo as Nese & Daivari stomp Zay. They bump him off buckles, Nese tags Daivari and they mug Zay. The ref counts, The Premier Athletes stop, and Daivari tags Nese back in. They stand Zay up for more mugging! The fans boo, the ref reprimands and counts, but Nese stops at 4. Nese then clamps onto Zay, brings him around, and whips him to the corner. Zay uses that to triangle jump STUNNER Woods! Nese waistlocks, Zay wrenches to knuckle lock and CHOP!

Jake “The Snake” Roberts speaks.
“What are we going to do next? That should be the question in your mind. When Jake Roberts tells you something, you know you can take it to heart. Trust me when It ell you, you cannot outrun the bull. Outrunners, you can run but you cannot hide. Rules and bones were meant to be broken. That’s the reason they made them. Trust me. We’re just here to tear the hell outta everything. That’s what you gotta think about when you step into the ring with us.” When you mess with the bull, you get the horns, so will Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd be gored through by La Faccion Ingobernable?
Orange Cassidy VS Bulk Bronson w/ The Iron Savages!
Mark Briscoe is facing Chris Jericho in a Ladder War on Dynamite, and Kyle O’Reilly is facing Kazuchika Okada later tonight on Battle of the Belts. Will Freshly Squeezed earn himself a golden opportunity? Wait, Jacked Jameson tells all the “fat morons and skinny idiots” to shut up. He is the Shredded Savage, and these monsters are Bulk Bronson & Beefcake Boulder! But hold up. What he sees in the ring is a member of The Conglomeration, a team featured on every show this company has. Meanwhile, Iron Savages must have been renamed The Melatonin Savages, because they keep getting slept on!
So tonight, the flavor of the Savage Sauce is going to be Orange Crush, because Bronson is gonna crush Orange! They are sippin’ sauce, livin’ hoss, and taking all the Low T meat-riders to #TIDDYCITY! Cassidy just sighs, and Jameson keeps talking trash that Bronson’s gonna kill ’em! The bell does ring, Cassidy dodges Bronson, and hits an ORANGE PUNCH on Jameson!

All that trash talk and what’d it get Jameson? Bronson got beat like he wasn’t even there! Cassidy has win number 175, if you can believe it. Will he finally make it to that world championship level before he hits 200?
Jamie Hayter VS Brooke Havok!
An Open Challenge was put out last night on Rampage, though it was directed mostly at Mrs. Superbad, Penelope Ford. Surprise, surprise, Penelope chose not to answer it. Instead, Brooke is looking to wreak havoc in Stockton, will she bring down a former AEW Women’s World Champion? Or will she learn that Hayter Hits Hard?
The bell rings, the fans rally up, and the two fist bump to show there’s respect. they tie up, Hayter waistlocks and SLAMS Havok. Havok fights up, fires elbows, then runs, but gets run over!

Cover, Hayter wins!
Winner: Jamie Hayter, by pinfall
It was probably over with that Haytbreaker on overdrive, but Hayter punctuates the victory. Wait, Penelope is on the tron. “Oh, hey, Jamie, are you really confused why I attacked you? I’ll tell you why. Because unlike you, most of us have to work for our opportunities. Do you even know who my partner was in my last TV match? You! And you wanna talk about backstabbing b*tches? Well you’re the backstabbing b*tch! I was out for two years, do you know what that does to someone’s mind? And not once did you even check in on me. Meanwhile, you were gone for a year and you come back to a damn parade at Wembley Stadium.”
Penelope says too many have forgotten who she is, especially Hayter. But Penelope is back, and she’ll make sure what two years of pain and anger really looks like. Penelope is here to take everting that Hayter cares about. And she won’t let anyone forget who Penelope Ford is again. Hayter says okay, fine! But will Hayter make sure Penelope regrets calling her out?
Backstage interview with Daniel Garcia & Private Party.
Lexy Nair is with the winning side tonight and says that was a phenomenal win. Say that again, say that again! What a PHENOMENAL win! Yes, that’s good! Wait, Cassidy steps in. Garcia says he’s been hoping to talk with him. Cassidy sees what it is like out there, yeah? It isn’t about being a hero, it isn’t about being tough guys. It is about holding each other accountable. They are coming to Cassidy because he’s been there before, he beat all these guys before, and it’s time to step up. Cassidy says yeah, he’s been there before. And every time he steps into the ring with one of those guys, it changes him.
Cassidy says he is no leader. He’s just not that guy. Freshly Squeezed heads out, Garcia is disappointed. But will things change when push comes to shove?
Kyle Fletcher w/ Don Callis VS Atlantis Jr!
The last time these two met, it was June of this year when The Protostar defended the ROH World Television Championship against the CMLL second generation star. Atlantis won it then, but then he lost it recently to Brian Cage. This rematch is therefore not about gold but about pride. Will The Aussie Arrow strike Atlantis down this time? Or will history repeat itself from the CMLL anniversary show?

Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.
Lexy is with La Mera Mera and says she hasn’t been in AEW since August. She got hurt, then showed up in England. When will she come back? Rosa says unfortunately, she suffered a concussion, but she has been cleared. While out of action, she went home to Mexico for International Girls’ Day, then she went to London this past weekend to win a championship. Then the Mexican Embassy honored her and- Harley says this is an injustice! NO justice! It is HER time! Hey, she is having a moment! This has been unruly and unfair and- Rosa says this is unfair! Then she DECKS Harley! Harley says Rosa will be the next to feel her wrath!
Harley writhes, but when she gets back up, will she and Rosa have quite the Collision in the ring?
The Outrunners VS La Faccion Ingobernable!
Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd have risen to new heights, in part thanks to working out with FTR. But will the Youngest Men Alive keep rising up the ranks? Or will El Toro Blanco y The Beast Mortos stampede right through them towards the top spot in AEW?

Sammy Guevara speaks.
“I’ve been here for the past five years. I take a lot of pride in being called an AEW Original. Because of this place, my life changed for the better. So the best way I know how to repay AEW is to make sure every single time I get in that ring, I give you a moment you’ve never seen before. For me, it’s always the same. But the way I get there needs to be different. The way I realize my destiny is by going against the best. And one of the best just had a hell of a debut on Dynamite. He’s a man I watched since I was a kid, so I went to Tony Khan personally and I asked for this match.
This Wednesday, for the first-time ever, live on Dynamite, it’ll be Sammy Guevara VS Shelton Benjamin! Get ready for another moment.” The Spanish God is on his way back, but will he be ready for the Standard of Excellence?
AEW World Trios Championships: Blackpool Combat Club VS Top Flight!
This main event is going to be a Collision for sure! Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta & Pac did their best to beat a lot of different teams into submission on Wednesday, but it only stoked the flames of rebellion. Will the Swiss Superman, Decoder & Bastard just have to break their opponents in mind and body? Or will Action, Darius & Dante finally add some gold to their luggage?

Claudio continues to hammer away on Darius, but here comes Lio Rush! He gets mugged, but Leila Grey asks they stop. Marina ROUNDHOUSES Leila! Marina TOSSES Leila up, and Collision ends with more mayhem! Who will ever stop the reign of terror that Moxley has started?
My Thoughts:
A really good Collision, with the only real filler being The House of Black winning their squash match. Great match from Ricochet VS Fox with a great win from Ricochet, and a pretty good promo for him to call out Takeshita. If they want to sell what he said, Ricochet should go to the same other promotions Takeshita visits. Like if Takeshita goes back home to Japan and DDT Pro, have Ricochet go after him after a match. And as far as having a match, this should culminate at Full Gear to really stretch out Takeshita trying to avoid Ricochet until he just can’t. Kyle VS Atlantis was also a great match, and great win for Kyle. Kyle saying he’ll tell all on Wednesday is of course going to set up Kyle VS Ospreay, perhaps also for Full Gear.
Very good match from Kris VS Harley, which Kris of course wins. Kris calling out Kamille is great, and a little annoyed they’re making us wait for Fright Night when Kris VS Kamille could just happen next week to give us Kris VS Mone at Fright Night instead. But whatever, this is the usual Tony Khan Women’s Division pacing, because surely Kris VS Mone is what he wants for Full Gear. That does make sense, because for one, Mone as a character would want the big money moment on a PPV, not on TV. And regardless of where/when it happens, it is hard to say that even Face Statlander beats Mone for the TBS Championship.
Harley also had a good moment with Thunder Rosa. Rosa knocking Harley on her ass was great, and Rosa VS Harley will be fun stuff. It can definitely help Rosa get back up and into title conversations, and she should be going for Mone and the TBS title because chasing that history of “first woman to hold both AEW belts” is some good stuff. Meanwhile, Hayter demolished Havok, and she’ll have really good stuff with Penelope Ford, and on a personal level, I do feel for Penelope missing two YEARS of action. Penelope probably wins a match from cheating, but then loses to Hayter in the rematch so that Hayter can go back for a championship.
Great match from LFI VS Outrunners, but the cheating spots LFI pulled off were a bit clunky. LFI of course wins to spark more interaction with FTR, and LFI VS FTR will be great stuff whenever they do it. And then great stuff in this larger story of “Who runs AEW?” Garcia & Private Party had a great promo to call out The Elite, they had a really good match with The Premier Athletes and therefore a really good win over them. Cassidy squashing Bronson while also knocking down Jameson was good stuff. Then Garcia asking Cassidy to take a stand against BCC was good stuff. Cassidy has good reason for wanting to avoid BCC, but Cassidy’s role in this story is now making that random promo with Jerry Lynn work out.
And then speaking of the BCC, very good promo from Moxley to open, and great main event with Top Flight. BCC of course won, but the beatdown that bleeds over into Battle of the Belts is actually pretty good stuff. BCC are just agents of violence and chaos, and they booked the third hour, so might as well segue from one show right into the next.
My Score: 8.8/10
