PLAY BY PLAY
It’s the Money in the Bank Kickoff Show!
Join Jackie Redmond, Matt Camp and Peter Rosenberg in discussing, analyzing and predicting all the action happening across the pond.
Kayla Brackston is backstage.
Kayla is outside Roman Reigns’ locker room, hoping to get a word with the Tribal Chief. Granted, he isn’t the one who answers the door, but tonight being Money in the Bank, anything can happen. Kayla knocks, but of course, it is the Wise Man who answers. Kayla asks Paul Heyman that of all the years they’ve worked together, she’s never seen him so stressed. Is the Bloodline Civil War- Heyman looks up and she stops there. Heyman says, “I’ve never seen him like this.” Heyman has tears in his eyes as he says he made a suggestion for a game plan to Roman and Roman says he will throw Solo the scraps. And even Heyman will get a scrap of the Usos’ carcasses.
Heyman has been in this business 40 years, has known the Usos since they were 4 years old. Heyman knows what they’re all capable of. Tonight, we will not see the Tribal Chief, the Head of the Table. Tonight, we see a warrior who was trained by the Wild Samoans themselves. It’s not gonna be enough for Roman to prove that the Usos are not the greatest team in history. He will wipe them off the face of the WWE, expunge their names from the history books… And the next family role call, they will not be welcomed. The beating Roman vows to put on the Usos will violate the terms of “sports entertainment.”
There won’t be any fun to be had to watch this. Heyman apologizes to the world for what they’re about to see. It will be smashed, stacked, pinned, and shipped out of the WWE… permanently. And there’s nothing Heyman can do to stop it. Heyman returns into the private suite, is this Civil War about to be more than just a title?
MITB Productions presents:
“London. Good to see you again, old friend. It’s been quite some time, hasn’t it? Well, things are about to get really interesting. You see, this is a high stakes, high risk, high reward situation we have here. And as they say, time is money. So, I suppose we ought to get to it.” Opportunity is the mission. But there are many eyes on the prize. The Judgment Day is approaching, and a battle for the future of a Bloodline is upon us. Who’s in? Who’s out? And who’s prepared to be shaken and stirred? This is MITB in the UK.

JOHN CENA is here?!
London goes nuts over this surprise appearance! The sixteen time world champion shows off the G.I. Joe inspired gear and he slides into the ring. Cena gets the mic, and says, “Surprise! I think I’m the one that’s surprised. Cuz I’m used to hearing you sing ‘John Cena Sucks.’ You flipped it around, you were like, ‘My time is now!'” Cena wants us to look around. Did they know that this is the first Premium Live Event in London in over 20 YEARS! He feels the energy, hears the noise, and asks himself, “What the hell took us so long to spend some time in London?” Fans cheer that, and then chant for “CENA! CENA!”
Then it hit Cena. It isn’t up to him, but it is up to the decision makers. Fans boo those decision makers. Cena says those guys don’t know how to feel about London. Fans boo again but Cena says this isn’t anything we don’t know. The managers think this is a “hostile environment.” That sometimes the fans are a distraction. And that the fans even try to take over the shows. Fans cheer that! See that? The managers don’t know what they’re talking about! The fans are the voice and the heartbeat of the show. They aren’t taking over the show, they ARE the show! Fans cheer that, too!
Cena goes back to why he is here. Fans chant “WELCOME BACK! WELCOME BACK!” Cena says he is here on behalf of them. He knows the world is watching, and he wants the world to know that the London fans are underappreciated. He is here to say that he is big on respect. And he is here because all these fans, over these 20 years, have earned his respect. They chant “THANK YOU, CENA!” Cena says another thing the managers don’t get it is that superstars allow the fans to speak up. But how much fun does that make a night like this? Fans cheer, chant, and they care. In Cena’s mind, there is not a more exciting audience than in the UK.
So Cena is here to advocate WrestleMania in London. The fans go wild! Cena says that struck a nerve. He isn’t here for #OneMoreMatch, but that when people hear the trumpets, it means something. He wants to give the audience, to show the world and the decision makers what we already know. Take a moment right now, let ’em see, let ’em feel, let ’em hear what Mania London would sound like! The fans go wild again, but wait. Here comes Grayson Waller. Waller says, “Wow. John Cena. It’s an honor, mate.” The fans chant “Who are ya?” Waller would introduce himself, but everyone knows the Aussie Icon!
So Waller hopes Cena doesn’t mind him interrupting. Waller has respect for Cena, and loves everything about him. Jorts are awesome! Waller is a man of style. The movies? Fans tell Waller to shut up, but Waller wants Cena to know he’s a fan of the movies. Cena’s performance in Fast 9 moved him. Waller says what he loves most is the whole Hustle, Loyalty, Respect. Which is why it saddens Waller to see him out here like this. He’s here for these people? And WrestleMania: London? You gotta be kidding, lad! We all know this is a hole. The people cheer who they’re supposed to dislike, hate the people they’re supposed to like, it’s all “cutting edge~!”
Nevermind the fact that it’s the Summer, the last few days have been cold and rainy. If Mania is going overseas, it should be somewhere beautiful. Good weather, nice beaches, good looking girls in swimsuits. If Mania goes international, it should be… in Australia! Aw, he thought Brits had manners. But Waller can see it now: Mania Australia! “AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!” Fans boo. Waller says don’t stress, h e thinks he could get Cena a spot on that show. He knows things haven’t been going so well for Cena. Last we saw Cena, he lost to Austin Theory. And before that was Roman Reigns. and uh, The Fiend at another WrestleMania. That was meta.
But the people here are simple. They only remember the last thing they saw. Fans cheer Cena and tell Waller to shut up. Oh, this is supposed to be classy England? Well all Cena needs is a viral moment, and Waller knows viral moments. Let Waller be Superman now. Cena’s helped so many and done so much, let Waller help Cena help himself save his career. Think about it! The biggest Grayson Waller Effect of all time! With John Cena as the guest! At WrestleMania Australia! Fans boo all of that. Waller isn’t asking the fans, he’s asking Cena. That’d be the Waller rub for Cena. Fans say “NO! NO! NO!”
Cena says no Mania London, and then go to Australia, to get a “rub” from Waller? Uh, yeah. Cena will pass. But wait, hold on! Waller stands in Cena’s way and says no one says no to him. Say again? No one says no to Grayson Waller. How about him hanging out with his friends? Cuz Cena and his friends were saying Mania should be in London! Waller DECKS Cena! And CLUBS away on him! Fans boo even harder now as Waller JABS Cena! Waller throws off his shirt, shows off the drop step, but Cena fireman’s carries! ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT! Waller bails out and Cena says you can’t see him. So will we get WrestleMania 41 in London?
Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Becky Lynch VS Trish Stratus VS Zoey Stark VS Bayley VS Iyo Sky VS Zelina Vega!
The Man doesn’t want to say #ThankYouTrish, she wants vengeance on Trish and her new protégé. But there’s also the Role Model, the Evil Genius and La Muneca to worry about if she wants to finally check off the briefcase on her Big Time Bingo card. Will Becky pull off a huge comeback for the summer? Or will another snipe this opportunity and aim for the top?
Stark rushes Becky at the ramp! The bell rings and the match is on! Becky SMACKS Stark off ladder, then she DECKS Trish! But Becky gets mugged 2v1! As does Zelina against DMG CTRL! Bayley fetches a ladder but Zelina goes out to METEORA Bayley down! Stark & Trish still beat up on Becky, Iyo RAMS Zelina down with a ladder! Zelina is stuck, Bayley and Iyo stomp away! But then Stark and Trish go after Bayley and Iyo! Iyo is sent into rungs, Bayley is RAMS into them! Stark SPINNING BUZZSAWS Bayley down! Iyo returns but Trish & Stark whip her at the ladder. Iyo jumps up, kicks Stark into Trish, and then goes up the ropes!
But Stark drags Iyo down and SMACKS her off the ladder! Stark & Trish hurry to bring another ladder up out from under the ring, but Becky SMACKS them into it!

WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Seth Rollins VS Finn Balor!
Seven years, this has been stewing in the background. Seven years, one man got better while the other got bitter. That bitterness has become a poison, and the Prince is the snake that’s spitting it. Will he bring down the Visionary not just to become champion, but to avenge the past? Or will nothing stop Seth Freakin’ Rollins from being the workhorse of the WWE?
Fans of course sing “WHOA~ OHH~ OHHHH~!” for Rollins as he makes his entrance. Rollins revels in it for a good dozen rounds, and then steps into the ring. The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is truly better after these seven long years!

Finn whips back the other way, but Rollins BOOTS Finn! Rollins DISCUS LARIATS! Fans fire up while both men are down! Rollins and Finn rise, the fans sing for Rollins again, and Finn storms up.

SUPERKICK from Rollins! Both men fall, and Finn flops out of the ring. Rollins watches Priest and asks if he’s gonna do it. Fans still want it, but Priest just stands by the timekeeper’s area. Priest takes a seat to keep Rollins distracted. Finn SHOTGUNS Rollins into barriers! And RAMS him into the corner of the desk! And then climbs up to COUP DE GRACEÂ to the floor!! Just like a few weeks ago on Raw!
Fans are thunderous as Finn goes up the steel steps to COUP DE GRACE again!!! Finn puts Rollins in, takes aim, SHOTGUN!! Rollins hits buckles, ends up in the drop zone, and Finn climbs up! But Priest stands up!? Now Finn is distracted. COUP DE- NO, Rollins dodges! CURB STOMP!!! Cover, Rollins wins!!

The Punisher seems to show no remorse for costing Finn, but why did he do it at all? Will he still go for it tonight? Rollins is watching, but Priest stands still. Finn argues with Priest over what just happened, is Finn’s bitterness only going to get worse now?
Kayla Braxton interviews Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn.
The Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions are in the VIP skybox and are enjoying the show. Could Kayla get a quick word from them? Fans cheer seeing Kevin & Sami, and she congratulates them for the win last night on SmackDown. Kevin says it has been great being here in London. Big things have been happening, such as their title defense, and everything tonight in MITB. And the crowd has been electric to say the least. Yes, and there is one more match left to go. These two are surely watching closely as the Bloodline Civil War is here. Sami says yeah, it is a match that has been personal for him, one he’s been waiting to see for a long time.
Fans chant for Sami, and he says that tonight is the night Roman gets exactly what’s coming to him! Fans like the sound of that! Will Sami be proven right as we see Tribal Chief and Enforcer of the Island take on their own family?
Bloodline Civil War: Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa w/ Paul Heyman VS The Usos!
These last three years, the Tribal Chief and his cousins have gone from fighting each other to fighting together to dominate the WWE. But Roman’s ego, his anger, and his paranoia have pushed things too far, and now Jimmy & Jey are taking a stand. Will they win, even if it means taking down their own blood? Or will Roman prove he is the ONLY one worthy of being Head of the Table?
Roman of course has the pyro when he raises his finger, and then he, Solo and The Wise Man continue to the ring. Then Roman holds up the Undisputed Universal Championship belt for more pyro. The introductions are made, the stakes are raised, and we see who really runs things.
Jey says it’s go time, Uce! The ref wants this to settle down to 1v1, the teams sort out and fans chant “F YOU, ROMAN!” Roman is upset by this, but he tells Solo to handle this. Solo starts against Jimmy, the bell rings, and fans fire up. Jimmy stares down with Solo, fans rally for the Usos and even sing for “OH~ SOLO SIKOA~”, and that all upsets Roman more than the other chant. Jimmy and Solo circle, tie up, and Solo shoves Jimmy away! Solo glares at Jey but Jimmy shrugs it off. Jimmy goes over to Jey and they talk strategy. Jimmy and Solo reset, Jimmy grins at Roman over the chants, and he ties up with Solo again.
Solo scoops to SLAM Jimmy, and he roars! Jimmy scrambles away and fans boo. Roman soaks up the heat while Solo dares his brothers to come back and bring it. Jimmy and Jey talk strategy again, and Jimmy circles with Solo again. They approach again, Jimmy gets around and CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! But Solo ROCKS Jimmy, CLUBS him, then CHOPS him! Solo whips, Jimmy reverses but Solo holds ropes. Solo BOOTS back, but Jey ENZIGURIS! Jimmy UPPERCUTS Solo, tags Jey, and Jimmy RAMS Solo to a corner for Jey to forearm smash! Solo staggers away, and fans rally for “UCE! SO! UCE! SO!”
Jey eggs Solo on, but then Roman shouts, “SOLO! NO!” Jey says listen to “Daddy,” but fans sing “OH~ Roman’s a Wanker!” Roman demands a tag, Solo is conflicted, and then Solo stares Roman down. Solo tags Roman in, and fans boo. Roman smirks as he and Jey circle. Jey throws off the armbands and even takes off the shirt, he’s getting serious now! Fans fire up as Jey and Roman circle. Fans rally behind “JEY! JEY! JEY!” and that angers Roman. They tie up, go around, and Roman headlocks. Roman mocks Day One, but Jey powers up and out. Roman runs Jey over, and he says, “The ONLY One! You understand?!”
Roman pie faces Jimmy but the ref keeps Jimmy back. Jey kicks Roman, throws hands, and backs Roman down. Jey whips, Roman reverses and ELBOWS Jey down! Roman says Jey’s got nothing. Roman threatens Jimmy and even the ref to back off, and Roman throws hands. Fans taunt Roman with more singing, but Roman bends Jey against ropes. The ref counts, Roman lets off, and Roman brings Jey around to HEADBUTT! Jey flops to the apron, but then back into the ring. Roman soaks up the heat, says this is too easy, and he brings Jey up. Roman whips, Jey holds ropes, and Jey ELBOWS back!
Jimmy tags in, and Roman bails out before the superkicks! Roman takes a breather but the fans boo. The fans chant “TRIBAL WANKER!” Solo reinforces Roman. Heyman asks if Roman wants his sons sitting at the Usos’ table. That’s what they’re trying to take from Roman! Roman is Head of the Table! Roman is now motivated, Jey tags back in. They circle again as fans keep chanting and taunting. Jey and Roman tie up, Roman clinches to put Jey in the corner and he fires off haymakers! The ref counts, Roman tells him not to touch him. Roman cools off, goes back to Jey, and ROCKS him! Jey UPPERCUTS back!
Jey puts Roman in the corner to rain down fists! Fans count as Jey goes to seven, but Solo runs in! Jey DECKS Solo, but Roman UPPERCUTS Jey! Jey flounders and fans boo but Roman tells the fans to shush. Roman stomps Jey at the ropes again and again, lets off as the ref counts but threatens the ref. Solo CHOKES Jey behind the ref’s back! Fans continue to taunt Roman, but Roman tags Solo in. Solo waits on Jey to get up, and he HEADBUTTS Jey down! And again! And again! Solo taunts Jey, then clamps on a claw! Jey endures as Solo digs his fingers into the shoulder, and the fans continue to rally with song.
Jey fights up, throws body shots, and JAWBREAKERS back! Hot tag to Jimmy and he baits Solo in. Solo runs into buckles, then DOUBLE GAMANGIRI! Jimmy goes up, Solo ducks the jump, Jimmy keeps moving but Solo CLOBBERS him! The ref checks Jimmy as Solo looms over him. Roman says Solo’s win is his win, but Jimmy stirs. Jimmy is somehow still in this, so Solo paces. Fans sing, “If you hate Roman, stand up!” and everyone stands up! Roman is upset again, tells everyone to sit down, but Solo stalks Jimmy to a corner. Roman sits down, because he doesn’t hate himself.
Roman tells Heyman this is the dumbest place, the fans are all idiots. Solo rains down fists on Jimmy, the ref has him back off, but Solo goes back in for more! Fans then change it to “If you hate Roman, sit down!” The fans all sit back down, so Roman stands up. Roman tells Solo to end this, and Solo goes to the corner. Solo runs corner to corner, to HIP ATTACK! Solo roars and fans boo but Roman grins. Solo looms over Jimmy as he crawls, and Jimmy drags himself up. Solo HEADBUTTS Jimmy back down! Jimmy ends up on ropes, and Solo CHOKES him! The ref counts, Solo lets off at 4, and Solo tags Roman.
Roman goes around the way, soaks up the heat, and runs in to DRIVE-BY DROPKICK! Jimmy falls over and Roman soaks up more heat. Roman goes in, covers, TWO! Roman is annoyed by that but he looms over Jimmy. Fans go back to “F YOU, ROMAN!” and “TRIBAL WANKER!” but Roman stomps Jimmy around. Jimmy goes to a corner, and Roman stands him up for the point-blank LARIATS! Roman lets off to run, and he BOOTS Jimmy down! Cover, TWO! Tag to Solo, he storms up on Jimmy as Jimmy sits up in a daze.

Fans boo and the ref reprimands but Roman clotheslines Jimmy in the corner! Fans boo more but Roman soaks it all up. Roman tosses Jimmy out, but the ref keeps him from going out.

Roman goes to a corner while Jimmy goes to the other. Roman raises the finger, then locks ‘n’ loads. Roman aims, runs in, but Jimmy ducks! Jimmy CROSSBODIES Roman and himself out of the ring! They hit the floor and the fans chant for “USO! USO!” Jimmy drags himself up and into the ring, then crawls for his corner. The fans rally and Jey reaches out. But Roman gets in, too, hot tags to Jey and Solo! Jey fires off hands, shoutout to The Rock with that one! Solo whips, pops up but Jey lands on his feet to mule kick! UPPERCUT!

DOUBLE SPEAR from the Usos!!! Cover, Solo breaks it in time!! Fans are thunderous as Solo saves his Tribal Chief and all four men are down! “This is Awesome!” as the teams regroup. They all stand and the fans rally as hard as they can. The ref wants this to go back to 1v1, but Roman shakes his head. Jey says this is it. The brawl is on!

Solo looks at his brothers, and then at Roman. Roman is distraught, so Solo rains down fists on Jey! The ref reprimands, he isn’t the legal man! But Roman gets back into things and he rains down fists.
Solo kicks Jimmy out, then whips Jimmy into steel steps! Roman tells Solo to clear the table, they’ll finish this now. Solo does as told, and then Solo SUPERKICKS Jimmy onto the desk.

He is pinned for the first time since December of 2019!! The fans sing “We’ve Been Down Since! Day One Ish!” because the Usos are the ones! Jey tells Jimmy to let Roman soak in this for a moment. Roman is completely at a loss for what just happened, is he about to lose the title of Tribal Chief?
My Thoughts:
An awesome MITB, and as John Cena’s promo would say, a large part of that was because of the UK crowd. They were rowdy the entire three hours and 40 minutes, with great chants and the like. Cena wanting Mania London, Waller wanting Mania Australia, both sound great to me, an American. I especially like they idea of London because just like with MITB here, it’s done and I still have the evening to do whatever else I want. But also it seems like Waller and Cena now have a feud building, they could probably have it for SummerSlam to give Waller more time for his leg to recover, and for Cena to get into match shape.
Great move opening with the Men’s MITB, but boy was it rough with some of those spots. No ladders broke despite people falling on them, but maybe WWE decided it’s safer this way? The table spot could’ve been done better, but imagining a spot and doing it in reality are always different. I would think Logan is okay, he can still feud with Ricochet on Raw or LA Knight on SmackDown over how Logan and Ricochet parallel in athletic ability while Logan and Knight parallel in mic abilities. And it was great stuff for Knight and Priest to be the last two in the ring at the end, as they were certainly my top two choices.
Priest winning made sense given the story they ended up telling tonight during Seth VS Finn. Great match out of Seth VS Finn, but a little surprising Priest came down to the ring to mess with both men. It ended up “costing” Finn, and now Finn and Priest are going to end up more divided. This could/should be the perfect opening for Finn to bring in JD McDonagh. They kick Priest out, Rhea & Dom probably side with Finn with how Finn can spin Priest being the real traitor, and then Priest can be face in his feud. And since the MITB briefcase can now be used on any champion, Priest could aim for Heel Gunther or Heel Austin Theory and their midcard titles. Even though that’d technically be a letdown from aiming for the top titles.
Speaking of the Intercontinental Championship, great stuff out of Gunther and Riddle, but with Riddle’s beat up foot, it makes sense Gunther used that to beat him. Drew McIntyre returning to confront Gunther was awesome stuff, and I suppose McIntyre VS Gunther for that title could happen at SummerSlam since they just need a month to build it. Priest could cash in during that, maybe not, but McIntyre feels like the one guy right now who could take that title off Gunther. Gunther is great, but he set the record for this “era,” and while he’s just a month away from passing Randy Savage at 414, he’d have to go another 40 days past that, aka 70 days from today to surpass Honky Tonk Man, which is also past Payback in September. I suppose Gunther could do it, but will he?
Really fun stuff out of the Undisputed Women’s Tag Team Champions, but I did NOT expect Shayna to turn on Ronda like that. Apparently, where Ronda was wearing a Majin Vegeta cosplay outta DBZ, Shayna was cosplaying a Warhammer 40K character known for betrayal. I suppose the nerdiest among us would’ve realized this was coming, but Ronda is apparently not that nerdy since she went with a DBZ reference. Raquel & Liv winning was still good stuff, and they can be the ones going all around Raw, SmackDown and NXT to defend these belts while Ronda VS Shayna is headed for SummerSlam.
Also good stuff out of Cody VS Dom, but it was surprising we didn’t see more cheating from Dom, and no Brock Lesnar at all. Maybe Lesnar will attack Cody on Raw this Monday to set up things for SummerSlam, but it just seemed like missed opportunity here. Judgment Day goes 1-2 on the night, there will be a lot of tension on Raw, all the more reason to bring in new guy McDonagh. And great stuff out of the Women’s MITB. Good team work stuff from DMG CTRL and Trish & Zoey for most of the match, but just as I was hoping, push came to shove with Bayley and Iyo. There wasn’t a full on fallout, but how clever for Bayley to almost cost Iyo, and then Iyo uses the cuffs to trap Becky and Bayley in the ladder. Iyo can get in on what’s building with Charlotte, Bianca and Asuka, but there’s half a chance Bayley costs Iyo to make her the one woman who hasn’t cashed in successfully. Actually, I hate that, why’d I have to think that?
But pretty sure everyone loved how the main event went! What an awesome tag match, with great story, and more of that rowdiness from the UK crowd. Roman does a great job playing off the crowd so he had plenty to work with here. And I love that as the Usos survived being spiked, speared and stacked, with Roman losing hope, Solo looked like he was questioning Roman’s ability to lead. It all feeds into the Usos saying they’d rather have Solo as Tribal Chief than Roman, and that is great stuff. And as such, Usos winning was the right move, this pushes things towards SummerSlam. Whether it’s a match for the Universal title or just for the spot as Tribal Chief, it’ll be awesome stuff.

JOHN CENA IS HERE!
The fans already chant “Let’s Go, Cena!” “CENA SUCKS!” before the music even begins! Then they sing along, “JOHN CENA SUCKS~!” as Cena walks out in the custom London merchandise. Cena goes to the ring, “The Last Time Is Now” towel draped over the back of his head like the other times, then he sets the towel on the apron. Cena grabs a mic, the fans continue to duel, and Cena winds up before bringing the mic up. Only for Cody Rhodes to make his entrance! The fans sing along with the song, “WHOA~ OH~!” The pyro goes off, Cody high-fives the fans in the front row and along the ramp, then he heads to the ring.
We get the second “WHOA~ OH~” and pyro before Cody pounds on the steel steps and steps up into the ring. Cody and Cena circle each other a bit before Cody grabs himself a mic. The fans finish singing the song, “YOU’LL FOLLOW ME UNTIL THE END~! I AM MY KINGDOM!” The fans cheer, then change to singing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cena steps to Cody but Cody tells him, no no no. We listened to Cena talking for two weeks, so allow Cody to do his job for him! Cena will cook Cody, end him, but where does he want to start? There is so much to make fun of when it comes to Cody! For starters, Cody’s lisp.
Cody will give him this one: Stardust! Fans cheer for “STARDUST! STARDUST!” Cody says that must bother Cena, that is who he is wrestling at WrestleMania 41, his final time! What else can Cena go after? Oh, yes! Cody spots it in the crowd and brings up the “arm tattoo on his neck.” The fans again sing for “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cody keeps going: He got booed in a company he helped make. But Cena won’t go for that. Maybe Cody is struggling with the idea that Superman is truly dead. The fans duel for “Let’s Go, Cena!” “CENA SUCKS!” Cody says this brings him to his next point: Cena’s words have not matched his actions.
For these last two weeks, Cena has lied to the audience. The fans boo, and Cody says they used to ride together, sing Poncho & Lefty. Cena surely cared about Cody, and he for sure cared about the fans. Don’t even look at Cody, look at the fans and tell them the real reason why. The fans chant, “You Sold Out!” while Cena thinks on his words. Cena says he is not going to reduce himself and punch down to Cody’s level. Cody’s been protected long enough. Cena also won’t “cook” Cody, he’ll just BURY him! Just like Cena has buried everyone else! The fans have been saying for years that Cena buries talent. Cena doesn’t bury talent, he IS talent! Cena BURIES mediocrity!
Cena doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the lisp or his failures. Cody has manipulated his way to the top of this business, and his ego outweighs his ability. All Cody has done is ride the coattails of Cena’s success! Cena has been so great, that the WWE could hand the heartbeat of this business to Cena’s chauffer! That’s right! Cody, your champion, is nothing more than Cena’s chauffer. A slimy pickpocket that thinks just cuz he stole the blueprints, he can run the kingdom! That is WHY Cena did it! Because it disgusts him! Cody sat by Cena’s side for YEARS, and stole every secret he needed to be undeniable, but he is still underwhelming.
Cena tried to drill it into Cody’s egotistical skull. Cody has to be authentic because fans can see through phony. Cody is too polished, too rehearsed, and relies on lazy gimmicks like fans singing his name just to get by! The fans boo, but then also sing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cena says Cody is just like the Pied Piper! All he’s ever done is find a way to make a catchy tune trick the people into loving mediocrity. Strip away the music and entrance, there is not much to look at but that pinstriped suit. But you could walk Cena out in silence, and you can bet your last dollar that he could body you before your first breath!
Cody Rhodes does not look like John Cena, doesn’t act like him, and doesn’t work like him. But Cody also doesn’t look like himself, act like himself, and work like himself, because he is still afraid to show who he is. So what do we get instead? Cody gives us a generic mix of every superstar he’s ever loved and every TV show he’s ever watched, in some big confused blob, that makes him still look like a 16-year-old kid taking acting lessons, because he is too afraid of public speaking. Cody Rhodes has shown Cena ONE thing, and the one thing is that someone mediocre wearing something meaningful is all it takes to trick the people!
Cena has worked too damn hard to make THAT a symbol of mastery to have it paraded by a paint-by-numbers, sociopathic nepo-baby who is so into himself that he had his wrestling gimmick tattooed for the world to see! It’s not where the tattoo is, it’s what the tattoo IS that exposes Cody for who he is: a common fan like the rest of them. So after WrestleMania, it’ll be great for Cody! He can go to Fanatics, buy the toy belt, call himself the fans’ champion, because the last real champion is taking that belt home forever to expose Cody for who he is: an errand boy that got lucky! Fans are actaully fired up behind Cena!?
Cody tells Cena that he didn’t expect this. But maybe Cena is right. Maybe Cody was chosen. But you know who chose him? The fans did. Can Cena say the same? Or was it some guy in an office who isn’t even here anymore and we can’t even talk about him? Yeah, let’s go ahead and go there. Stirp everything away from Cody, does he know who he is? He’s a wrestler like his father before him, and if anyone is a corporate creation, it is Cena and not Cody! Gosh, everyone is so terrified of Cena on the mic but Cody isn’t not. Cena had more d*ck in his promo than in his jorts! Making fun of Cody for looking like he’s a kid?
Well, Cena’s the one who hangs out with Zac Efron and wishes he was 16 again! And thanks for the softball saying Cena created all of this and he created Cody. Well, Cena created a lot of disenfranchised fans that made it easy for Cody to pack up, go somewhere else, and say, “Hey! Look at me!” Cody tells Cena not to act like he cleaned up his room before he packed up for Hollywood. And while we’re at it…! There are two of them in this ring right now, and what Cody is about to ask might punch a giant hole in Cena’s logic. Between the two of them, which one of them sold out to The Rock? The fans again chant at Cena, “You Sold Out!”
Cody tells Cena that Cena is still Cody’s hero. But Cena is also a POS. Cena smirks while fans repeat that. Cena says just like all the fans’, Cody’s head is full of feces and not facts. Cena has worked 100 times harder than Cody and never once in all of that was he ever protected from the audience, or the superstar, present company included, taking their best shot. Everyone knows that every time Cena steps in the ring, it is a challenge to every superstar to take their strongest swing to see if they are worthy to put Cena down. NO ONE has been worthy! So Cena has just decided to do it himself. That’s why Cena has never left, has always been here.
No matter how high the hill is to climb, no matter what garbage they give him, Cena finds a way to make it great. Cody had to leave because Cody realized that at best, he can’t even wipe Cena’s ass! Cena makes empires for billionaires! All Cody ever did was steal money from their kids. “See you at WrestleMania, champ.” Cena turns to go but Cody wants to remind Cena, that all the time Cody has been here, never once has an audience ever chanted, “You Can’t Wrestle.” Cena hears the fans repeat that and he turns red int he face! Cena storms back into the ring, he and Cody square up, but then Cena smirks again.
Cena tips his hat and then takes a swing! Cody catches him! CROSS RHODES!! Cody smooths out his suit while he stands over Cena. Then he points to the sign while fans sing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cody holds the belt up before he exits, will Cody do very much the same in just 19 days?

The fans fire up as Erik & Ivar storm out on stage, belts on their shoulders, and they stare down with The New Day.
Erik & Ivar are always ready, so will they and New Day take this all the way to Las Vegas?
Jey checks on Jimmy.
The Usos are pumped up. Jey knows Jimmy told him earlier, but Jey would just feel better if he was out there with Jimmy tonight. Jimmy knows that, but tonight is different. Jimmy knows the world is doubting Jey. But tonight, Jimmy closes that noise. Gunther’s a big deal, but so is Jey. And so is Jimmy. Ain’t no Ring General, just a man who is beatable. Tonight, Jimmy beats Gunther. At WrestleMania, Jey beats Gunther and becomes World Heavyweight Champion! YEET! They shake it out and then Jey holds on. “I hear you. Just be careful.” Jimmy nods, and Jey heads out. Will #BigJim make good on his word? Or will Gunther get back at him for last week’s slap?

Toni Storm is here!
Milwaukee cheers as The Good Land is now TIMELESS! Toni goes right to the ring, puts her AEW Women’s World Championship belt right down on the mat, and has a mic to say, “Milwaukee, I love you.” The fans cheer that! Toni says please, enough of the banter! “Megan Bayne, get your oiled up, feathered ass out here right now!” No response, so Toni says fine. If Megan is too busy crushing watermelons and eating babies, then listen up! The spotlight drops on Toni as the fans chant her name. Toni says, “Last Wednesday, you were the better woman. I don’t know what happened, it all happened so fast. But before I knew it, I was flat on my back like you’d just bought me a steak dinner.
“I am embarrassed. I am hurt. And I’m ashamed. And the worst part is, you made it look so easy.” Toni rests on the mat beside her belt to say, “I went back to my hotel, and I turned off all the lights. And I laid there, going over the same scene in my head over and over and over again, wondering if this is what’s going to happen to me at Dynasty.” Fans say no, but Toni continues, “And then, when the sun came up, I was covered in sweat. Moreso than usual. But I got up, and I went into the bathroom and I took a piss. And then I stubbed my toe, then I whacked my head on the sink. And when I came to, I looked into the mirror, and I remembered exactly who I am!”
The fans cheer, and Toni rises up to say, “I am Timeless Toni Storm! And at Dynasty, I will be leaving with your tits in my purse!” Toni approaches the ropes for her close up, only to be CLOBBERED by Penelope Ford! The Superbad Girl grins, the fans boo, but Ford fires off hands on Toni! Ford whips, but Toni reverses to GERMAN SUPLEX! Ford ends up in a corner, Toni runs in, SWEET HIP MUSIC! The fans fire up as Toni stomps a mudhole into Ford! But then Megan CLOBBERS Toni! The fans boo as now the Megasus gets the drop on Toni! Megan fireman’s carries, FATE’S DESCENTÂ on the belt!
The fans boo even more as Megan sits Toni up, tells her to “BOW! DOWN!” then throws Toni down again! Megan stands over Toni, and with just EIGHT DAYS left, is there no such thing as “timeless” in AEW?
The Death Riders speak.
Claudio Castagnoli starts with German, and he says that while Dax Harwood will be the first victim of the Death Riders, this Wednesday is when the Swiss Cyborg does something for himself. Claudio calls out Adam Copeland to go 1v1 for what Cope did to him! And if Copeland thinks that was ruthless, Claudio knows he is losing his edge and is just trying to cope with it! Claudio will beat Cope to a pulp, but leave just enough of him alive to limp to Dynasty so he can team up with his “two little groupies,” and fail at another chance of becoming champion here in AEW.
Moxley pats Claudio on the shoulder and says, “There are only three women I fear in this world: My mother, my sister, and my wife. Until I met Marina Shafir. On the day that she just snaps, I know I don’t wanna be the one who pissed her off. Part of me thinks maybe me and you, Swerve, we should just grab some popcorn, sit and watch these ladies tear each other apart. But you talked a really, really big game on Wednesday, and now you gotta back it up. Right now, that’s the job. Poor, sweet Willow.” Marina speaks up and warns Willow in Romanian, then in English she dares Willow to keep smiling once Marina’s ripped out her liver and shoved it down her throat!
Moxley & Claudio look at each other, Moxley with wide eyes and Claudio with a big smile. They head out with Marina, will there be no solving this Problem?
Jay White VS Kevin Knight!
The Switchblade has put his name in the hat for the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, knowing full well Will Ospreay and Hangman Adam Page will be in it, too. But will White be rolling towards the Owen Hart Cup opening round? Or will The Jet take him on quite the flight?
The bell rings and the fans rally. White and Knight circle, and Milwaukee is strongly behind the Switchblade. The two tie up, White waistlocks but Knight drop toeholds. Knight floats to a facelock, floats to a cover, but White slips through to headlock. Knight rolls free and the two stand off. The fans cheer, White and Knight reset, and they knuckle lock. White rolls, wrenches, and wristlocks. Knight rolls, handsprings, and then wrenches to WRING White! White rolls through and the fans cheer. White shakes out the arm while Knight brushes himself off. They tie up again and are in a deadlock.
They go around, White headlocks, then hits the takeover. Knight headscissors, White shrugs that off, but Knight rolls to a cover. TWO, Knight headscissors again, but White kips free. Knight headlocks, White rolls free, then he hits a headlock takeover again! Knight headscissors, White kips free again, and now Knight headlocks. White powers up and out, they RAM shoulders, and White rebounds to run Knight over! But Knight springs right back up! The fans cheer, and now White fires forearms! White runs, Knight hurdles, but then White fakes Knight out! The fans cheer, Knight still arm-drags White around!
Knight ducks ‘n’ dodges White to tilt-o-whirl and RANA! Not the smoothest but White is right up to CHOP back! White shakes out the stars, storms up on Knight and CHOPS again! And CHOPS in the corner!

Knight stands, White CHOPS him to the corner! The fans fire up and White LARIATS! White brings Knight around, suplexes, BRAINBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Knight stays in this but White stays calm while Collision goes picture in picture.
White looms over Knight, drags him up, and CHOPS! Knight flops out of the ring! White pursues, but Knight CHOPS! White CHOPS back! Knight CHOPS in return! White CHOPS, Knight CHOPS, and repeat! Knight fires CHOP after CHOP, then he puts White in the ring. White is on Knight with a CHOP! Knight sputters while White catches his breath, and then White covers, TWO! White covers again, TWO! White clamps onto Knight with a chinlock and grinds him down. Knight endures, fights up, and fires body shots. White CHOPS Knight again!

The fans fire up and White drags Knight up. White clinches for the URENAGE! White says time to end it! Clinch and BLADERUNNER!! Cover, White wins!
Winner: Jay White, by pinfall
Knight pushed White in this one, but he still had to Breathe with the Switchblade! White grabs a mic to say, “Let’s hear it for Kevin Knight!” The fans cheer, and White says, “Just like myself, Kevin went through the NJPW Dojo. And although this year, it won’t be yours in the Owen, there’s always next year. Because I’m pretty sure we’re going to see a lot more of Kevin Knight in AEW.” The fans cheer that! White says that was Knight’s cue to leave but guess Milwaukee thought otherwise. White says, “See you around.” They shake hands, and Knight takes off. When and where will The Jet fly back to AEW?
White says the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament will have the best of the best. And just like White does every time, he will show us that he is the MOST elite! Because he needs to win the Owen Hart Cup, because he needs to go on to All In: Texas, because he needs his shot at the AEW World Championship! The fans cheer that, and White says because he is the Last Rock ‘n’ Rolla, the man who singlehandedly sold out Madison Square Garden, King Switch! The Catalyst of Professional Wrestling! This is STILL his era! And at All In, White will show us it is STILL the Switchblade Era! White has issued his mission statement, but will it be mission accomplished by July?
AEW shares a tweet from Athena.
In response Mercedes Mone posting, “Milwaukee, say hello to your C E O,” The Fallen Goddess says, “Maybe I will say hi… TONIGHT!” Could the Forever ROH Women’s Champion be the one to face the TBS Champion tonight? We’ll have to see, after the break!
Mercedes Mone VS Robyn Renegade!
#FourBeltsMone held onto the TBS Championship after getting quite the fight from Billie Starkz. But her AEW Dynasty dance card is still open. Will Mone win herself a night off? Or will this Renegade make Mone work for her money?
The bell rings and Mone circles with Robyn. They tie up, go around, and Mone headlocks. Robyn powers out but Mone runs her over! Milwaukee is tourn, but things speed up. Mone steps on Robyn’s dropdown, then does her dance. Robyn runs up, Mone gets around to waistlock, but Robyn switches. They go to ropes, Mone bucks the O’Conner, but Robyn comes back with a sunset flip! TWO, and Robyn SHOTGUNS Mone down! Robyn does her own version of Mone’s dance, then drags Mone up. Mone stops a kick to KNEE Robyn away! Mone runs in at the corner, but Robyn dodges and KNEES Mone back!

Robyn survives again but Mone is right on her! Goery Especial for the MONEY MAKER! And then STATEMENT MAKER! Robyn TAPS, Mone wins!
Winner: Mercedes Mone, by submission
The CEO smiles as she puts this Renegade down and grabs up all her belts. Tony Schiavone joins Mone in the ring and congratulates her on another win. It seems like that the Money Train is running hotter than ever. But he understands she had something she wants to say, so the floor is hers. Mone says that’s right. The fans boo, Mone frowns, and she takes the mic from Schiavone. “I am the greatest TBS Champion of all time! And I came to AEW to win more gold. So I’m officially declaring myself in the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! That’s right! I’m planning on winning the Owen Cup.
“And then, the Money Train is gonna make her way to Texas to All In! And then, I’m going to become the AEW Women’s World Champion!” Fans are torn again but Schiavone says that tournament will have a lot of competition, including Billie Starkz, who- Mone stops Schiavone there. She doesn’t wanna hear about that stupid kid! Billie has a lot of heart, but not as much heart as Robyn! Give it up for Robyn! Way more heart than that stupid Billie. Who even trained Billie? They suck! You’re looking at the greatest women’s wrestler of all time! WAIT! Athena really IS here! The fans cheer as THE ROH Women’s World Champion is on AEW!
Athena goes to the ring, and she holds up her spinner belt while looking at Mone’s collection. The fans are all behind Athena and that annoys Mone. Mone puts her belts aside, to take a swing on Athena! Athena dodges and DECKS Mone! The fans cheer, Athena goes to the corner, and Robyn helps Mone up. Mone gets away, O-FACE for Robyn! Well, not the target Athena wanted, but Athena does look at Mone’s TBS Championship. Athena shouts, “This is MY show now!” Will Athena’s Forever Reign be the one to add more gold? Or has she just put herself on Mone’s gold colleting radar?
Backstage interview with Queen Aminata.
Lexy Nair is with the One True African Queen, and it would seem there is unfortunate news. Aminata’s hand is wrapped up, she is unable to compete tonight. Taking her place in tonight’s main event is Billie Starkz. Given all this, how does- Serena Deeb walks in. Deeb smirks and says Aminata must know this was preventable, right? Deeb had the game plan, offered it to Aminata, and Aminata didn’t want to listen. Let’s look at history, Aminata. Every time Aminata listened, she won. Every time she didn’t, not only does she lose, she ends up injured. This is all choices. Everything they do is choices. And unfortunately, Aminata made the wrong choice.
Aminata admits, Deeb is right. Everything is about choices. And Aminata still choose not to listen to Deeb’s trash! Not listening to any of that. Okay, Queen, Deeb respects that. But deep down, Aminata knows Deeb is right. And if Aminata thinks there’s a slight chance that she knows that Deeb is right, well, Aminata will have some weeks at home to rest up. Here’s some reading material. Deeb shoves her playbook into Aminata’s hand, will Aminata do her homework?
“Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith VS Top Flight w/ Leila Grey!
Speaking of learning, The Redwood & Bad Apple want to make The Learning Tree proud, and that means winning some championships to go along with Chris Jericho’s ROH World Title. Will Bill & Keith be one step closer to facing The Hurt Syndicate with tonight? Or will Darius & Dante Martin soar far above the trees to be next in line for gold?
The teams sort out and Bill starts against Darius. The fans rally, but Dante wants in! Darius tags Dante in, and now Keith says he wants in! Bill tags Keith, he and Dante tie up, and they go around. Keith puts Dante on ropes, Dante turns things around, but Dante lets off as the ref counts. The two go again, Keith arm-drags hard and has the armlock. Dante rolls and arm-drags free, then he DROPKICKS Keith down! The fans fire up, Dante A-LIST LARIATS! Tag to Darius, he snap suplexes Keith and tag sin Dante. Slingshot SENTON! The fans cheer, Dante brings Keith up but Keith shoves free!
Darius tags in, Top Flight gets Keith for the LARIAT STO COMBO! Cover, TWO! Darius stands Keith up to CHOP, then UPPERCUT! Darius whips corner to corner, Keith reverses, but Darius goes up and over. Darius rolls, but Keith ROUNDHOUSES him down! Keith brings Darius over, tag to Bill, and the fans boo as Bill & Keith mug Darius. Bill drags Darius up but Darius fires body shots! Bill CLUBS Darius down, then puts him in a corner. Bill CHOPS Darius, Darius sputters and the fans fire up. Bill stands Darius up, Darius fires more body shots, but Bill CHOPS again! Bill brings Darius over, tags in Keith, but Darius fires forearms and elbows!
Darius ROCKS Bill, goes up to BOOT, then TORNADO- NO, Bill puts Darius on the apron! Darius ROCKS Bill, but Keith BOOTS Darius! Keith goes out after Darius to CHOP him, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Keith stands Darius up, CLAWS his eyes, and then CHOPS him again! Darius staggers away, Keith storms after him, and then Keith puts Darius in the ring. Keith pushes Darius to a cover, TWO! Keith argues with the ref but the count is the count. Keith drops a knee on Darius’ face, then covers, TWO! Keith is getting annoyed, but he tells Dante to pipe down. Darius fires body shots and forearms, but Keith ROUNDHOUSES him down again. Keith brings Darius up to whip, but then sends him back the other way for an ELBOW! Bill applauds but he might be the only one. Keith steps on Darius’ face, then has a cocky cover, TWO!
Keith references Jericho but that doesn’t finish it, so Keith clamps on a CAMEL CLUTCH! Darius endures, even as Keith CLAWS his face! The ref reprimands, Keith stops, and Darius fights up. Darius pries at the hold, but Collision goes to break.
Collision returns and Bill BODY BLOWS Darius down! The fans are torn as Bill stalks Darius. Bill drags Darius back by a leg but the fans continue to rally for Top Flight. Keith runs in around the way, but Dante SUPERKICKS Keith first! Darius lunges forward, hot tag to Dante! The fans fire up as Dante springboards, but Bill gets under. Dante comes back, but Bill LARIATS him down! Bill grins and soaks up cheers and jeers. Bill runs in at Dante to SPLASH! Then he runs at Darius to SPLASH! Back to Dante for a BOOT! Darius dodges the lariat, but not the BOSS MAN SLAM! The fans are torn as Bill talks trash on Bobby Lashley!
Bill soaks up the cheers and jeers while Keith has Dante in the corner. Bill runs up, but Dante slips free! The SPLASH takes out Keith! Dante HURDLES Bill!? But no Darius, so Dante realizes he’s cornered. Bill storms up, Dante BOOTS him away, and Darius returns! Tag to Darius, and Dante runs up. Bill scoops, Dante slips free, and Dante BLASTS Keith while Darius HOTSHOTS Bill! Dante ENZIGIRIS, Darius GAMANGIRIS, and Dante SUPERKICKS! Bill staggers into the step-in COMPLETE SHOT! The fans fire up while Bill bails out, and Keith runs up! Darius gives Dante the alley-oop, then Dante helps Darius TORNADO DDT Keith!
Dante DIVES and takes out Bill! Darius scoops Keith, SHELL SHOCKE! Cover, TWO!! Keith survives, but Darius tags Dante! Dante goes up, but Bill anchors Dante! Darius WRECKS Bill with a dropkick! But Bill grabs Darius! Bill RAMS Darius into barriers! But Dante SUPER CANNONBALLS Bill! The fans are thunderous, Dante MAMBA SPLASHES, but onto knees! Keith RAMS Dante into a corner, clinches, and hits the EXPLODER! Tag to Bill, and Keith says get ’em! Bill SPLASHES Dante, then feeds him to Keith’s KNEE! Keith KNEES Darius off the apron! Bill hoists Dante up, SKYSCRAPER CHOKE SLAM! Cover, Bill & Keith win!
Winners: “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith, by pinfall
If that teamwork and victory doesn’t say they’re ready, that look on Bill’s face sure does. Will the Learning Tree do this to the Hurt Syndicate? Or will Lashley & Shelton just hurt people?
Wait, The Cru slithers in! They have the chain necklaces ready like last week! Leila spots them, but it’s AR FOX that jumps in! Fox stands with Top Flight and The Cru backs off. Action says that’s fine, they’ll let it go this time. But will The Sight to See & The Man of the Hour ground Top Flight one way or another?
Backstage interview with Jamie Hayter.
Lexy Nair is with the Southampton Hayter and welcomes her back. Last time we saw her, she was victorious over Julia Hart, and now she’s in the main event of Collision. How does it feel to be back again? Hayter says it feels great. And if you know Hayter, you know she doesn’t like doing things by half measures. So being in the main event is just another Saturday night for her. But she will say she is very excited to be in the ring with a young whippersnapper like Billie Starkz. It really injects some energy into Hayter, it lights that fire. And Billie has a lot of fire herself, and Hayter likes that. Billie gets knocked down but she gets back up.
And Hayter while respects that about Billie, she doesn’t want Billie to confuse respect for mercy. If Billie steps to Hayter, Hayter will hit back and knock her on her ass. There’s no hesitation, no second chances. So if Hayter were Billie, she’d be smart. Or, find out the hard way. Your choice. Oh, and one more thing. Hayter noticed some girls are already putting in for the Owen Hart Tournament, so Hayter will do that, too. And it is very fitting that she returned at All In last year, because this year, she leaves All In the champion! Hayter is ready, how hard will she hit Billie on this Collision?
Adam Cole is here!
The Undisputed Kingdom follows him out, complete with “BOOM!” and “ADAM COLE BAYBAY!” as the Panama City Playboy prepares for his NO TIME LIMIT AEW TNT Championship match at Dynasty. As such, here comes the champion, Daniel Garcia! Daddy Magic has Garcia’s back as he goes to the ring, and the fans cheer for all parties involved. Cole has the mic and wants Garcia to listen. Cole knows tensions are high, but he’ll make this crystal clear: Cole has all the respect in the world for Garcia. The past two matches they’ve had are two of the toughest matches Cole’s had in his AEW career.
When they saw Garcia is the future of AEW, Cole means that in his soul, and the fans sure believe that. That is because Garcia is a fighting champion. When Cole challenged Garcia for the TNT Championship, Cole could not get the job done. But neither did Garcia. And so as a fighting champion, that must make Garcia sick to his stomach. He must not be able to sleep at night knowing he didn’t and couldn’t put Cole away. And unless Garcia is a coward, he’d want to change that. Cole sure wants to change that. Cole doesn’t want things to end in a draw. This needs to end with one man proving that he is better than the other, and dammit, that man is Cole!
Cole knows, Garcia knows, the entire world knows, that Garcia and Cole need to finish this fight. The fans cheer, Garcia nods, and he tells Cole he appreciates the kind words. Garcia agrees with a lot of that. They’ve been in the ring almost two months straight. And as much fun as it has been testing his iron against one of the best, truly, Garcia is getting a little bit frustrated. It is eating Garcia alive that he couldn’t beat Cole. Matt Menard tells Garcia that he is THE TNT Champion. How many chances is Cole gonna get? Garcia doesn’t need to be talked into this. It is Cole’s job to defeat Garcia, and Cole couldn’t do it!
Menard says Garcia doesn’t have to go through with this. Garcia pats Menard on the shoulder and says yeah, he doesn’t have to do this. But he wants to! So then, they will run it back one last time, BAYBAY! Roddy shouts, “DANNYYY~! Hey, listen. I have all the respect in the world for you. And just like Adam said, you are the future. And I’m not just saying this because he’s my best friend, but he is one of the best pro-wrestlers on the planet. And as good as you are, you’re just not there yet, dude.” Menard says, “Not there yet?” Menard and Roddy argue, Kyle joins in, but Garcia tells them all that this is enough!
Enough noise, enough distractions! April 6th, Kyle won’t be out there, Roddy won’t be out there, and Menard won’t be out there. Menard is a bit taken aback, but Garcia says at Dynasty, there will be no one ringside, there will be no time limit, and it will be Cole VS Garcia for the TNT Championship, ONE LAST TIME, and there WILL be a winner, cuz you’re looking right at him! Garcia holds up the title, but will he still own that title when it’s all said and done? Or is Dynasty going to be Undisputed?
Athena & Billie Starkz regroup backstage.
The Fallen Goddess says, “Mercedes~! HAHA~! Is that it?” Billie says yeah, just about. Athena says that is so annoying. But what’s the expression? Poke a bear, it might bite you? Well here’s one better. Mercedes, if you’re gonna be a passive aggressive b*tch, you’re gonna get hit. How did you like the taste of the floor? Was it good for Mercedes? Cuz it was great for Athena. So use this as a learning lesson: Keep Athena’s name, and her Minion’s name, out of your damn mouth. But hey! Mone is in the business of collecting championships? OMG, she’s such an inspiration, Athena is gonna do the same thing.
So how about this? Let’s get to real business, not that Mone knows what that is. Athena declares to her Minions and to the AEW fans around the world. Your Forever ROH Champion, Fallen Goddess, American Joshi, Minion Overlord, and all those other things, is OFFICIALLY ENTERING the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! That’s great, right? And Billie! Billie made this all come together, what a brilliant little schemer she’s becoming. Billie has her match tonight! The main event! Look at her! And against a former AEW Women’s World Champion, Jamie Hayter. Is she ready? Yeah, she’s ready! She’ll make Athena proud!
Athena is sure Billie will find a way to disappoint, but tonight, Athena will be watching very closely. Good luck. Billie gives a salute, and it seems no matter if it’s ROH or AEW, Athena keeps Billie under her thumb. Will the inaugural and former ROH Women’s World TV Champion prove she’s ready for the big time?
Dax Harwood VS Wheeler Yuta!
Rated FTR made the challenge for the AEW World Trios Championships, The Death Riders made the challenge for Rated FTR to survive. And while Claudio wants Cope’s head on Dynamite, this Collision will kick things off! Will Dax the Ax chop down the youngest member of Moxley’s crew? Or will The Decoder already figure Dax out?
The bell rings, the two circle, and the fans rally up. They tie up, break, then go again. They break again, fans chant “YUTA SUCKS!” and Dax smirks. Dax and Yuta circle, tie up, and Dax spins Yuta to wrench an arm. Yuta rolls, switches the wrench and has the wristlock. Dax rolls, spins, and he wrenches to then slip through and headlock fort the takeover! Dax pushes Yuta down to a cover, ONE, but Dax holds onto the headlock. Yuta powers Dax to a corner, the ref counts, and both men let go slowly. Yuta KNEES low! The fans boo and the ref reprimands, but Yuta CHOPS!

There are fans chanting for Yuta?! Yuta puts Dax’s arm on the steps to STOMP it! Yuta then goes to a corner, pulls the covers off the crossbars, and he drags Dax through!
Yuta stands on Dax’s arm to dig it into the crossbar! The ref reprimands, then counts, but Yuta stops at 4, and he reminds the ref, “I have ’til FIVE!” The fans are torn as Yuta copies Danielson, then he drags Dax up to the very top. SUPER DUPER PLEX! Both men are down and Milwaukee fires up as Collision goes picture in picture.
A standing count starts, but Yuta crawls over to Dax at 4 of 10. Cover, TWO! Yuta is annoyed but he drags Dax into a top wristlock. Yuta stands on the arm, then STOMPS it!

Yuta STOMPS the bad arm again, and Dax goes to another corner.
Yuta storms up to CLUB Dax, then he wraps the bad arm around the ropes! The ref counts, Yuta stops at 4, and then he wrenches Dax into a snapmare. Yuta drops a knee on the elbow! Then Yuta clamps on a cording hold, only for Dax to fight up. Yuta wrenches, but Dax ROCKS him! Dax CHOPS Yuta, then JABS, JABS, JABS, before he DECKS Yuta! Yuta gets up but Dax DECKS him again!

Yuta returns to the ring, soaks up the heat, then goes back outside. Dax rises, Yuta ROCKS him! Dax CHOPS, Yuta ROCKS, then Dax ROCKS Yuta again and again! Dax DECKS Yuta, then hops up an dover the barrier. Dax reels Yuta in, but Yuta fights the driver! The bad arm also holds Dax back, and then Yuta BACKDROPS free!

Dax drags Yuta to a corner, and now for some payback! Dax SLAMS Yuta’s leg into the POST! Yuta writhes, but Dax grabs the legs again!

Winner: Wheeler Yuta, by pinfall
Dax can’t believe it, but he just got suckered in! Yuta celebrates like he’s already won the title match, and Claudio is there to pat Yuta on the back. Will the Death Riders keep scoring as Claudio takes on Cope? Or can Rated FTR even things up before Dynasty? Dax argues with the ref, the ref says his decision stands. His count was the count, there’s nothing to it. But then Dax gets in the ref’s face?!? Security rushes in there, but Dax fights them!? They hold Dax down, but Cash YANKS them all off him! But then Dax SHOVES Cash?! Dax realizes what he did and he apologizes. Cash is stunned, but just what is going on with Dax’s emotional state?
Dax offers a hand, Cash slaps it away to get in Dax’s face! Dax says he’s sorry, it was a mistake, but then Cash storms off. Well, guess you can’t spell frustration without F T R. Will they be able to sort this out before arriving in Philadelphia?
Backstage interview with The Patriarchy.
Alicia Atout is with Kip Sabian, Nick Wayne & Mother Shayna, and notes that just like last week, they’re here without any sign of Christian Cage. Just what is going on with The Patriarchy? But before anyone can speak up, The Cru barges in. Lio Rush asks Nick, “What’s up with your boy, Fox, man?” Nick says, “Huh?” Lio repeats himself, what’s up with his boy? Uh, his boy? Fox is far from Nick’s boy. Really? They know they’re history together. Didn’t Fox try to end Nick’s career? So Nick is just gonna chill back here while Fox is out there still breathing? Nick says okay, he gets what they’re up to here. Oh, really? And what’s that?
What The Cru is really doing is asking Nick for help, simply because they can’t get the job done. Oh, is that so? Nick doesn’t blame them for asking him. But Nick’s done with Fox, that is well in the past. Well Nick’s past is creeping up on their present, so for them, that’s an issue. Oh, is that really an issue? Kip has Nick calm down. These “gentlemen” surely didn’t come and interrupt them without a reason, so The Patriarchy should hear them out. AKA, get to the point. Lio says this is all they’re saying. Three of them, two of The Cru. But when the time is right, nobody knows Fox better than Nick Wayne. Just think on it.
The Cru heads out, but will The Patriarchy’s Prodigy take them up on the offer to team up?
Holo.grm VS Blake Christian w/ Lee Johnson!
The futuristic luchador’s undefeated streak continues, even as he joins Komander as a Titan of the Air. But while Hologram & Komander have settled things with La Faccion Ingobernable, this battle is about the Revolution Zero Hour last month. Will the Vanilla Babyface avenge that loss? Or will he just be number 22 on Hologram’s win streak?

The fans boo while Hologram is down, but Collision goes to picture in picture.
Lee applauds Blake and Blake rolls into the ring. Blake distracts the ref so that Lee can stomp away on Hologram! Big Shotty gets away with that, and Blake waits on Hologram. Hologram rises, Blake builds speed, FOSBURY TOPE! Blake offers high-fives to the fans, but he leaves them all hanging. Blake drags Hologram up, puts him in the ring, then he stomps Hologram. Blake brings Hologram up, and he pulls at the mask! The ref reprimands, but Hologram KICKS Blake from below! Blake storms up to stomp Hologram again! Blake drags Hologram onto the ropes, CHOKES him, but stops as the ref counts.
Blake runs to STRADDLE ATTACK Hologram! Blake drags Hologram back up but Collision goes to break.

Blake drags Hologram up onto the barriers?! But Hologram fires body shots! And he RANAS Blake to the floor! Blake narrowly avoids hitting the steel steps and the fans fire up!
Hologram high-fives the front row, then stalks after Blake. Hologram goes up the steel steps, Lee storms up but Hologram mule kicks him! Blake jumps up to SPANISH FLY to the floor! Blake puts Hologram in, then springboards for a 450 SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Hologram survives and Blake is frustrated! Blake slaps Hologram around, eggs him on, and then puts some stank on the- HEEL KICK from Hologram! Hologram fires up, he blocks Blake’s kick, but Blake SUPERKICKS from the other side! Blake whips, Hologram reverses, Blake rolls off the back, and he shoves Hologram to then SNAP POWERSLAM!

Vanilla Babyface was spicy, but Hologram comes out hotter! Will this 22-0 streak show Hologram is ready for a golden opportunity?
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa & Kris Statlander.
Lexy is now with La Mera Mera & The Galaxy’s Greatest as she says we can officially announce they are also entering the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! Kris says that last year, she was a completely different person in a much different place. But she still had the same goals as she does today. “To every woman in this tournament, and to every woman in the locker room, you can’t stop Stat!” Rosa says, “Unless you face me.” Much respect to Kris, but like Rosa told Toni Storm, Rosa never lost the AEW Women’s World Championship, and she’s yet to wear one since. So believe her when she says this: She will scratch and claw harder than ever to have the Cup above her head.
Kris says, “Unless you face me.” Rosa says okay, mamacita. See you in the Owen. They each wish the other luck, and then head out. Will La Mera Mera & The Galaxy’s Greatest battle to prove who is TRULY the best of the best?
Jamie Hayter VS Billie Starkz!
Hayter was preparing for Aminata, but it would seem Aminata’s loss to Hart has also lost her some time in the ring. But Billie is ready to step up to prove herself worthy of AEW’s bright lights! Will this be the start of Starkz’s legacy? Or will Hayter Hit Hard enough to be the number one seed in the Owen Hart Cup?
The bell rings and Billie circles with Hayter. Milwaukee cheers on Billie and Hayter encourages it. The two then tie up, and Hayter powers Billie to a corner. The ref counts, Hayter lets off with a pat on the shoulder, and Billie frowns. The two reset, tie up again, and Hayter again powers Billie to a corner. The ref counts again, and Hayter lets off with another pat on the shoulder. Billie frowns again, but the fans duel, “Let’s Go, Jamie!” “Billie Starkz!” They tie up, Hayter headlocks, and she grinds Billie down. Billie powers up and out, but Hayter runs Billie over! Things keep moving and Hayter runs Billie over again!
Hayter flexes, the fans are torn, but Billie is right up to stare Hayter down. The fans cheer, but Hayter pie faces Billie! Billie ROCKS Hayter! Billie whips, then follows, and she sunset flips over, TWO! Hayter gets up, Billie BUZZSAWS her down! The fans rally up, Billie whips Hayter but Hayter reverses. Hayter runs up, but into an ELBOW! Hayter comes back, but into a BOOT! Hayter is annoyed, she blocks boots this time but not the rebound ENZIGIRI! Billie goes up, up, but Hayter TOSSES Billie down! Billie writhes, rises, and Hayter is up the corner to MISSILE DROPKICK! Hayter flexes, the fans are torn, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Hayter stalks Billie, stomps her down, then stands on her! Billie endures until Hayter steps off, and then Hayter puts Billie on the ropes. Hayter CHOKES Billie, the ref counts, and Hayter steps off at 4. Hayter “apologizes” before she stalks Billie. Hayter drags Billie up, DDTS her by the ropes, then puts her back on the ropes. Hayter KNEE DROPS on Billie’s back, then KNEE DROPS again! And again! The ref reprimands but Hayter backs off. Hayter fires up the fans, then she goes back to kneel on Billie’s neck! The ref reprimands and counts, that’s not a cover! Hayter backs off, “apologizes” again, then has Billie in a corner.
Hayter smacks Billie off buckles, then runs her corner to corner to smack her off more buckles! Then Hayter goes to a third corner for buckle bumps! Hayter says let’s finish the set, and she runs Billie corner to corner for a buckle bump! Billie falls back, Hayter dusts her hands off, and then brings Billie up. But Billie WRINGS Hayter’s arm! And she SUPERKICKS Hayter down! Hayter staggers up, ducks the heel kick, and she shoves Billie for a SPINEBUSTER! Hayter then turns Billie over, HALF CRAB! Billie endures, reaches out for ropes, but Hayter sits deep on the hold! Billie reaches out, grits her teeth, and Collision returns to single picture.

Now that was a Collision! Hayter is back, and she finds a new way to hit hard! Athena walks out on stage, and she waves hi to Hayter. Whether Billie impressed her or disappointed her, Athena now has her eyes on Hayter and everyone else in the Owen Hart Cup. Will the Fallen Goddess learn for herself that Hayter Hits Hard? Or will the Owen Hart Cup join the Athena World Domination Tour soon enough?
My Thoughts:
A very good Collision, talky as usual, but very good build towards Dynasty and the Owen Hart Cup simultaneously. Great opening promo from Toni, because she’s always great at promos, but they did a great job framing Ford’s blindside attack on Toni. And while Toni takes down Ford, Megan of course gets the last say on Toni. Toni is the underdog champion, knows she is, but knows she won’t let that stop her, and surely she comes out on top at Dynasty. Good promo from The Death Riders to hype up Dynamite. Claudio was very clever in using “Edge” and “Cope” in his part, and he will have a great match against Cope, but I would think Cope wins.
Marina had a great part calling out Willow, and that Mixed Tornado Tag will be awesome stuff. Dax VS Yuta was great, too, and real good win for Yuta. Dax losing his cool further waters the seed that is an FTR Heel Turn, but if this keeps up between Dax and Cash, could we end up with FTR VS FTR? That’d be rather wild, but it’d also make sense since FTR at some point said they were drawing closer to the end of their careers. A tag team like them, that has already done so much, having a 1v1 against each other is kinda the last thing to check off their bucket lists.
Great tag match from Bill & Keith VS Top Flight, one of the best Top Flight’s had in a minute since they’ve been going back and forth between AEW and ROH, but I figured Bill & Keith would win. They want their shot at The Hurt Syndicate, this gets them a step closer to that, and Top Flight still has The Cru after them anyway. I’m just not sure The Cru asking Nick Wayne to help out against Top Flight & AR Fox is the kind of story continuity they should be using right about now… Nick’s busy with this story against Christian Cage, he should focus on that. Unless the point is, if Patriarchy falls apart, Nick needs somewhere to go and someone to hand out with. But then The Cru is just three- Gasp! Cru-serweights…!
Great promo segment from Cole, Garcia and their friends, but uh, the announcement came in right as this segment started, so for us at home, it completely undercut how Garcia and Cole were building to making the No Time Limit title match. This is all still the right move, and Garcia telling Menard to stay away from ringside was a wild twist. Cole VS Garcia could be a borderline show stealer given how great their 20 minute draw was last time. And I still think that Cole should win the title, just so he finally has something in AEW aside from the tag title run alongside MJF. As for Garcia, losing the TNT title could be his opportunity to move on to another title, like the International or Continental Championship.
Hologram VS Blake was a rather random match to put on, but whatever, still great stuff. I wonder who finally pins/submits Hologram to end his win streak. It’d have to be someone that fans already have strong feelings for, good or bad. Like, Ospreay could get away being the guy that beats Hologram because it’s Ospreay. At the same time, MJF or Jericho could beat Hologram because not only do they have the power level, but fans love to hate them anyway so they’d love to hate MJF or Jericho as the guy who ended the streak.
And great stuff with the Women’s Owen Hart Cup, but also a build between Mercedes Mone and Athena. Mone of course beat Robyn Renegade, but she of course also had to talk trash on Billie & Athena. Athena finally being on AEW TV is great in itself, and she had a good promo with Billie to touch on the love-hate relationship between Minion Overlord and Minion 400,237 & 3/4ths that we’ve seen the past two years on ROH. Aminata going down with injury is a shame, and her promo with Deeb could’ve been a bit sharper on both ends. But Deeb naturally puts it on Aminata that Aminata needs to either join her or wrestle her, and I’m thinking we get the latter.
Good promo from Rosa and Statlander to not only add them to the Owen Hart Cup but to tease their match-up. Hayter VS Billie was a great main event, and it was another great showing for Billie in the loss. Athena confronting Hayter was also good stuff, and both Owen Hart Cups are looking to be the most star-studded ones yet. But as it stands, I’m thinking Rosa wins to get that world title match she has yet to get, and then we get Mone VS Athena for the TBS Championship, as teased tonight. All In: Texas will basically give both Rosa and Athena homefield advantage, and it’d be pretty wild if both of them won titles then.
My Score: 8.8/10
