PLAY BY PLAY

The Judgment Day heads to the ring!

Fans boo as WWE Women’s World Champion, Rhea Ripley, and the NEW NXT North American Champion, Dominik Mysterio, return to NXT. Mami has a battle with The Morrigan as she was challenged last night after Raw, but she and Dom are in good spirits after Dirty Dom did Sami dirty in retaining the title. Dom holds the belt up as fans boo, and Rhea says, “Just like I constantly say, the Judgment Day, we run all of the WWE! Look at us! Finn Balor, he’s gonna be the new Heavyweight Champion. Damian Priest is Senor Money int he Bank!” Dom says Mami Rhea is the GREATEST Women’s World Champion!

Fans boo Dom but Rhea says “Dirty Dominik” is YOUR NXT North American Champion! The look on everyone’s faces! All the neckbeards freaking out, babies crying, women screaming! And Dom finally made the Mysterio name relevant! Fans boo but Rhea tells him to tune that out. As for Lyra Valkyria- Fans chant “Cut the Mullet!” but Rhea says no, Dom’s mullet is righteous. Now listen to Mami while she’s speaking! And as she was saying, if Lyra wants to step to Rhea, that’s rather courageous. But you wanna challenge- WAIT! Wes Lee shows up! And he says nah nah nah! He is NOT taking this! Wes HATES seeing his title in Dom’s hands!

Dom says on one cuts off Mami but Wes tells him to shut up! “For 269 days, that title represented hard work and opportunity.” Wes lifted that title up, but that title also made him a better competitor, because he put his heart and soul into the title! And to lose it the way he did, to DOM!?! You best believe Wes wants a rematch. Rhea says c’mon, Wes. A new NXT North American Champion is exactly what NXT needed. Wes doesn’t want them to get it twisted. He does agree, we need a new champion, tonight! But wait! Here comes MUSTAFA ALI! And he wants Wes to listen. Ali has love and respect for Wes, but none for “Dum-Dum!”

Dom STOLE that title from Ali! That is all he does! HE steals things! Catchphrases, his daddy’s moves, his other daddy’s moves, and then he stole Ali’s opportunity to become the NEW NXT North American Champion! It was meant to be Ali that beat Wes to take the title, but then “this clown” had to drop the ball- Oh… Ali tries to apologize but Wes says he should drop Ali right now. Fans chant for “TRIPLE THREAT!” as Ali apologizes more. He is just angry! He is frustrated! He was in line, and this dude just shows up and cuts the line! And it’s WES’S fault cuz he let Dom cut the line!

Ali warned Wes but Wes is too stupid- Wes SLAPS the mic down and tells Ali to watch his mouth! Dom says this seems like a “you guys” problem, not a Dom problem. He doesn’t care who is at the Bash. Hell, he could fight both of them! Dom is gonna break all the records, and uh, sorry, Ali, champ coming through. Ali takes a swing, Dom dodges, and Wes takes the hit! Wes TACKLES Ali! Wes fires off on Ali, Ali hits back, and fans boo as Dom just slips away. But then Wes and Ali realize who the real enemy is. They let off each other, still arguing, but will at least one of them be able to bring down the champ that shouldn’t be?

 

Backstage interview with Tony D’Angelo & Channing Lorenzo.

McKenzie Mitchell is with The Don & Stacks, and she welcomes Tony back. It feels good to be back. And the reception he received, he’ll never forget. Speaking of, Gallus tried to ruin that homecoming. Yeah, how’d that work out for ’em? Stacks says Marky Mark did a nosedive into the cannolies. Now all that’s left is this Sunday. They will reclaim the streets of NXT when they win the tag titles at The Great American Bash! But then in step Bronco Nima & Lucien Price. What streets are they talking about? Where they’re from, they ain’t never heard Tony’s name.

But now that Nima & Price are here, you’ll be hearing their names a lot! Especiamente (Especially) after Sunday, if, and that’s a big if, Tony & Stacks win the titles Oh, that was Espanol? Si. Well, the D’Angelo Family speaks softly, but they carry big sticks. Nima keeps Price back. Tony says Sunday is Sunday, but if these boys are looking to make a name for themselves, Tony wants to shake the rust off. See you tonight. Tony & Stacks head out, will they teach the new kids on the block how things are done around here?

 

Backstage interview with Lyra Valkyria.

McKenzie is with The Morrigan and asks her about her challenge to Rhea. Why did she ask for this match? Lyra says she’s been back in NXT for just over seven months. She needs to know where she stands. And Rhea, well Lyra’s been watching her since NXT UK! And look where Rhea is now! She is the measuring stick of the WWE! And now Lyra knows Rhea’s been watching her this whole time, too. Lyra needs to know where she stands, not bide her time like Jacy Jayne or the others in the locker room. Tonight, this is not about Rhea or Jacy, but about her. And tonight, Lyra shows the world who she is!

 

Six Man Tag: Carmelo Hayes, Trick Williams & Ilja Dragunov VS The Schism!

Also speaking of Sunday, the NXT Championship will be defending by HIM against the Mad Russian Dragon. But they and Trick Willy need to defend their honor first against Joe Gacy, Rip Fowler & Jagger Reed. Will Trick Melo Gang be able to work with The Czar to cut down The Schism’s tree? Or will the roots simply grow by feeding off their dysfunction?

NXT returns as Dragunov makes his entrance to join Trick Melo Gang. They step into the ring with The Schism, then the teams sort out. Gacy starts against Melo and the two circle.

Jagger then sucker punches Melo! Dragunov is fired up but the ref keeps him and Melo back. Rip joins Jagger and they get Trick up! Double suplex, but Melo makes the save! Trick Melo Gang dodge, FLYING FOREARM and a SPRINGOBSRD LARIAT from the boys! They pass, shoot and score~! Fans fire up as NXT goes picture in picture.

Dragunov wants Trick Melo Gang to take this a little more seriously but Trick says it’s okay. Tag to Melo, and Melo goes after Jagger. Jagger gets away to his corner, and the two reset. Jagger wrenches an arm, whips Melo to a corner, but Melo goes up and over and handsprings to arm-drag! And arm-drag again! And then DROPKICK!

Melo endures, fights up, but Jagger throws him down!

Jagger keeps between Melo and his corner, DECKS Melo with a forearm, and then wraps on another SLEEPER! Melo endures again as Jagger shifts position to put on more pressure. Not quite a Bully Choke, and NXT returns to single picture. Melo kicks and moves around, fights up, and he throws body shots. Jagger shoves Melo back but Melo BOOTS him! And DECKS Rip!

Ava is confused, who were those two that messed up The Dyad? Dragunov roars, but Melo tags in! Melo is taking the shot himself! NOTHING BUT NET!! Cover, Trick Melo Gang wins!

Winners: Carmelo Hayes, Trick Williams & Ilja Dragunov, by pinfall

The team didn’t fall apart, but it wasn’t an easy win. Trick wants after Dragunov over the misunderstanding, but Melo keeps him back. Dragunov does his best to explain that headbutt was an accident, but will he have no qualms about hitting Melo on Sunday?

 

NXT shares footage from last night.

It would seem an incident broke out at a bodega! Roxanne Perez attacked Blair Davenport a la Blair attacking everyone else! We see how this all went down later tonight, but is Roxie gonna show the heir is the one who should beware?

 

Tiffany Stratton speaks.

“When a superstar is born, no one sleeps on it. You don’t need to take classes to learn it, you’re just ‘it.’ And I’m it.” Tiff says that at just 24 years old, she is this fab and nowhere near her prime. She is the “epitome of what a women’s champion is.” She runs faster, jumps higher and lifts heavier, all while looking way hotter than everyone else. The Great American Bash will be he first Premium Live Event as champion, and she didn’t come this far to have it taken away by some 19-year-old brat. The girl has energy, Tiff gives Thea Hail that. Thea’s like a human energy drink, and could probably run from Florida to Texas.

But how catastrophic would it be if Thea became champion? It is Tiff’s responsibility to no one but herself to make sure Thea does NOT get her hands on the title. And lets’ set the record straight: At Gold Rush, Tiff did NOT tap out. Her hand “grazed the mat” a couple times, but the ref didn’t see it, so it doesn’t matter. But out of the goodness of her heart, she is giving everyone what they want, since they all love Thea. ShE’s sO AdOrAbLe~! But really? What does she call attacking Tiff and forcing her into a submission match? That’s not adorable, that’s despicable!

But payback is coming. Thea can bring Chase, Duke, the student section, it won’t matter. After The Bash, the Universe will still revolve around Tiff. And Tiff will still be THE NXT Women’s Champion. Tootles. Tiff is high on herself as always, but will Thea drag her down and tap her out on the record this time?

 

BREAKING NEWS for Great American Bash!

The fans wanted it, and it is happening! It will be a TRIPLE THREAT for the North American Championship! Dominik Mysterio VS Mustafa Ali VS Wes Lee, will the numbers spell disaster for Dom at The Bash?

 

Von Wagner w/ Robert Stone VS Javier Bernal!

As “Vicious Von” has been opening up to Suit Man Stone over these past couple of months, there have been those who would still try and belittle him. Big Body Javi made the mistake of being the newest bully, will Von beat him down from bell to bell? Or maybe Von will just put Javi through another table?

The bell rings and Javi runs in to knee low! Javi fires off forearms and CHOPS and haymakers, but Von TOSSES him to a corner! Von SPLASHES, then bumps Javi off buckles! Von fires swatting haymakers but the ref counts. Von CLOBBERS Javi with that last one! Von stands Javi up to whip and BOOT him down! Fans fire up and Von rains down fists! Von stomps Javi, then waits on him to get up. Javi rises, Von hauls him up and URENAGES him down! Cover, Von wins!!

Winner: Von Wagner, by pinfall

Maybe Javi would’ve preferred the table to how he got dominated here! But then Von looks over at the desk as Javi writhes on the outside. So Von goes out and the fans fire up! Von nods and Stone says go ahead with your bad self! Von drags Javi up, and POWERBOMBS him through the table!! But then BRON SPEARS VON!! Fans boo as Badass Bron turns into jackass Bron and beats down Von! Bron then brings out a chair! Bron looms over Von, and then SMACKS Von on the back! Fans boo, refs rush out to tell Bron to back off, and Bron soaks up all that heat. Bron says he’s #MeanerThanEvil, but is he poking a bear he shouldn’t be provoking at all?

 

Dragunov and Melo talk backstage.

Melo says good W there, but that’s as far as they go. Dragunov says he’s okay with that. Only one leaves on Sunday with the championship. Yeah, MELO’s championship. Trick storms into the room and gets in Dragunov’s face. Melo has Trick back off and Dragunov says sometimes “collateral damage” happens. Trick says they can skip the collateral and get right to the damage. Dragunov tells Melo to calm Trick as Dragunov does his best to be respectful. Respect? Trick ain’t looking for respect! Just watch where you throw that big-ass head of yours! Dragunov warns Trick that he still likes him, but he has to understand that if you come at him like a man, “I BREAK YOU!!”

Dragunov takes his leave, Melo asks what’s going on. Trick says they saw what happened. Melo did see but he’ll handle it on Sunday! Trick says it’s not about Melo, this is about Trick! And Dragunov pissed Trick off! Okay, okay, but they can’t be unprofessional. Lead by example! Melo wants professional? Cool. But Trick’s gonna call Dragunov’s punk ass out! Trick storms off and Melo sighs, will the heat die down so Melo can focus on GAB?

 

Gable Steveson is here!

He said last week that he would officially announce his decision for his wrestling future, and he is back on NXT to do that here! Gable gets in the ring, gets the mic, and fans cheer him on. Gable says, “Thank you to everyone in NXT. Many of you may not know who I am.” He smirks, that’s probably not true. But he still would like to introduce himself. He is Gable Steveson, and fans chant “U S A! U S A!” Gable thanks them for that, and says he is the 2022 Olympic Gold Medalist, and a two-time NCAA Champion. And next year, in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, he could be the USA’s first-ever two-time Gold Medalist. Fans like the sound of that!

Gable thanks them again, and says he could go back to college to become a three-time NCAA Champion. Fans are less fired up about that. Gable says he could even make his choice right now. And that decision is- Wait, Baron Corbin steps on stage. Fans boo as Corbin wants Gable to be careful. What he says next could determine his entire future. So man to man, Corbin has some advice. He’s just trying to help Gable. Gable should go back to college and win another NCAA Championship. Go back to the Olympics and win another gold medal. Gable said it himself, he’d be the first ever two-time American gold medalist.

But just don’t come back to NXT. Because if he does, well, Corbin will make Gable do what he’s never done before: fail. Look where you are! This isn’t amateur wrestling! These ropes will show you who you are, this mat will humble you. These fans will make you question your entire existence! So much so that if you step back into this building, you will step to an Olympic Gold Medalist, and tell him that he doesn’t belong. For eight years, Corbin has done everything they’ve asked, towed the line, never stepped over it, but now he doesn’t care. Corbin understands Gable is a bad man, but this is a different game, and Gable will be swimming with sharks.

And right now, Gable is staring eye to eye with a Great White that is starving! And Corbin smells blood. Fans boo but Gable smiles. Gable tells Corbin, “You just made my decision that much easier. How about this? Me VS you in my first match, at the Great American Bash.” Corbin says okay, and then Gable GERMAN SUPLEXES him! And then BELLY2BELLY SUPLEXES him! Security rushes out as Corbin is furious, but the match is on! Will Gable start his NXT career by ruining Corbin’s NXT callback?

 

Dom helps Rhea prepare for her match.

That is to say, he lets her put a leg on his shoulder to stretch… But he asks her if she thinks it was really a good idea to go with a Triple Threat at the Bash. Yeah, because Mami is always right. Just like how she’s always on top, like she will be against Lyra. Be right back. Dom stays in the back to watch, will Mami be the one on top in tonight’s main event?

 

Kendo Stick Match: Cora Jade VS Dana Brooke w/ Kelani Jordan!

The Generation of Jade keeps telling everyone she’s special, she’s the best, and if they don’t agree, she hits them with her kendo stick. But now she won’t be the only one swinging around bamboo! Will the Flex Appeal humble Cora once and for all by giving her a taste of her own medicine? Or will Dana just end up Jaded?

But whoa, Dana takes the fight to Cora at the ramp! Dana dodges a kendo stick swing to RAM Cora into the apron and fire off fists! Dana pushes Cora into the ring, the bell rings, and Dana runs in to TACKLE Cora! Dana rains down fists, chases her out of the ring, and Kelani moves aside to Dana can RAM Cora into steel steps! Dana mocks Cora, eggs her on, and pats Cora on the head. Dana drags Cora up, brings her around the way and SMACKS her off the apron! Dana then TOSSES Cora over the desk! Booker and Vic almost don’t get outta the way in time! Dana then grabs herself a kendo stick and waits on Cora.

Cora rises up, Dana goes up onto the desk, but Cora trips her! Dana lands hard, and Cora laughs at her! Cora gets the stick, and she SMACKS Dana across the ribs! And then again! Cora drags Dana off the desk, SMACKS her off the apron, and then again! Cora SMACKS Dana again! Cora pushes Dana in the ring now, grabs herself a few more sticks, and puts those in the ring. Dana flounders to grab one, but Cora stands on it! To then SMACK Dana with another stick! Cora puts the sticks together in a little pile, then drags Dana up. Cora scoops to SLAM Dana on the sticks! Then she CHOKES Dana with one and stretches her back!

Fans rally and duel, Dana endures, and Dana powers her way up! Dana grabs the stick, and it’s a tug-o-war! Cora RAMS Dana into the corner and jams the stick in! Then she SMACKS Dana again! Cora stands Dana up, and uses the stick to trap Dana! SHINING WIZARD! And then the stick helps int he underhooks, but Dana RAMS Cora into the corner! Dana frees herself of the scarecrow position, Kelani rallies the fans, and Dana has the stick! Dana swings, misses, but keeps swinging! Cora kicks low, but Dana rocks Cora with forearms! Dana whips and CLOBBERS Cora! And again! Fans fire up as Dana goes corner to corner to handspring and ELBOW!

Dana then BULLDOGS but Cora slips out! Cora reels Dana in, FUTURE SHOCK!! Cover, TWO!?! Dana survives and shocks everyone! Cora is pulling at her hair in frustration, and she goes to the outside. Cora drags in a chair! Are those allowed in a kendo stick match? Well, technically it is a No Disqualification match so… Cora sits Dana in the chair, and then grabs a kendo stick. Cora tells Kelani to watch her teacher. Cora tells Dana to go back where she belongs. But then Kelani shouts at Cora! Cora swings on Kelani, misses, and Dana drop toeholds Cora into the chair! Both women are down and fans rally up again!

Dana grabs the chair, and JAMS Cora with it! Then SMACKS her on the back with it! Cora brought the chair in and now she’s paying for it! Dana sees Kelani and Kelani brings out a HOT PINK KENDO STICK! Dana SMACKS Cora with the Barbie stick over and over and over and over! Cora writhes, Dana blows her a kiss good night, and SMACKS her again! And again! And again and again and again! Cora is down in the corner, pieces of that pink stick broken off! Dana then puts the chair in the middle of the ring, fans rally for “NXT! NXT!” and Dana even adds kendo sticks to the chair. Cora crawls, but Dana brings her up.

Dana brings Cora over, suplex onto the sticks and chair!! Cora writhes but Dana goes up a corner! SWANTON BOMB!! Cover, Dana wins!

Winner: Dana Brooke, by pinfall

Cora didn’t just taste her own medicine, she got beat at her own game! Will Dana and Kelani be a dynamic duo that climbs to the top of NXT?

 

Melo talks with Dragunov again.

Melo tells Dragunov that Trick is not happy about that headbutt, accident or not. Dragunov says in that case, man to man, Melo knows what happened, right? Yeah, this is just about the two of them and the title at GAB. They don’t need to do this. Dragunov says he admires the friendship of Melo and Trick. But please, please tell Trick that if he wants to call Dragunov out, Dragunov will answer. Just know, Dragunov isn’t looking for a match. Well Trick isn’t looking for that, either! Good! It’ll be so much easier for them. If Trick sticks to this challenge, Dragunov will break Trick tonight. And then on Sunday, he breaks Melo.

Dragunov heads out, is he about to take down Trick Melo Gang all by himself?

 

Charlie Dempsey is “teaching” the prospects.

And that means putting one guy in a short arm scissor that really, really hurts. Drew Gulak says that’s good. Dempsey lets off and Gulak says these guys are all built for speed, not toughness. Hear that? resilience, tenacity! This is unacceptable! But then Damon Kemp says, “Hey! You looking for someone with toughness?” Yes! See, Miles, this is what Gulak is talking about. Kemp says if Gulak’s looking for someone with grit, then he’s looking for training partners that can push him. What do you say they work something out? Gulak and Dempsey say okay, they’ll see what he’s got. Sounds good. Did this dangerous duo just become a trio?

 

Tony D’Angelo & Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo VS Bronco Nima & Lucien Price!

The Don and his Underboss are ready for a tune-up so they can be sharp for Gallus, and the new kids on the block are looking to make a statement. Will Tony & Stacks be more than ready for Mark Coffey & Wolfgang? Or will Nima & Price make them pay the price for looking down on them?

NXT returns as Nima & Price make their entrance. And Scrypts is on commentary! Seems he is hanging around Nima & Price after they all set Axiom up for a beating last week. Anyway, the teams sort out and Nima starts against Stacks. The two tie up, Nima puts Stacks in the corner and digs his forearm sin. The ref counts, Nima lets off but then he puts Stacks up top. But then Stacks BOOTS! Stacks fires off forearms and chops, whips but Nima reverses to then CLOBBER Stacks! Tag to Price, he and Nima double whip to DUOBLE ELBOW! Then double stomp! Price covers, ONE!! Price rains down forearms, then runs, but Stacks avoids the stomp!

Stacks fires forearms, Price pushes and scoops but Stacks slips free! Stacks ELBOWS and UPPERCUTS! Tag to Tony, he and Stacks double whip to body shot and knee lift! Fans fire up but Price ROCKS Tony! Tony gets around to TACKLE Price, and he stomps away on Price’s stomach! Tony drags Price up, talks some trash, and gives Price hockey punches. But Tony and Nima talk trash, allowing Price to wrench and HOOK KICK! Tag to Nima and he and Price double whip. Kitchen sink knee to a JUMP STOMP! Nima says these are their streets now! Nima hauls Tony up but Tony fires hands and kicks!

Tony tags Stacks, they mug Nima, but Price runs in! Tony kicks Price, Stacks DROPKICKS Nima, and then Tony HALF HATCH SUPLEXES Price! Stacks runs in, HIP TOSS SENTON onto Price! HIP TOSS SENTON onto Nima! Fans fire up with the Family and Stacks covers, TWO! Nima hangs tough but Stacks wraps on a chinlock. Nima endures, fires body shots, and Price tags in. They whip Stacks, to ALLEY-OOP and GUT BUSTER! Nima kicks Stacks around, Price slithers like a snake and watches Stacks rise. Price runs in to LARIAT in the corner! Stacks falls, Price covers, TWO! Stacks hangs tough but Price keeps on him.

Price CHOKES Stacks on ropes, tags in Nima, and Nima STRADDLE ATTACKS! Fans boo as Nima adds on, and then Price gets a cheap shot in! Cover, TWO!! Nima whips Stacks hard into a corner, but Stacks BOOTS back! STacks FLYING UPPERCUTS and both men are down! Scrypts is frustrated for his guys, but then AXIOM JUMPS IN OUTTA NOWHERE!! Axiom goes after Scrypts, chases him into the ring, and Stacks KICKS Scrypts out! Axiom DIVES to take Scrypts out but Nima sneaks a tag. Stacks dodges Price, hot tag to Tony! The Don rallies on Price, dodges Nima and DECKS him!

Tony clinches Price BELLY2BELLY! Then another! Tony whips Price to SPINEBUSTER! But Nima stomps Tony down! Stacks DROPKICKS Nima, then pushes him out of the ring! Tony whips Price, he and Stacks hit BADA BOOM!! Cover, Tony & Stacks win!

Winners: Tony D’Angelo & Channing Lorenzo, by pinfall

The Family saw through the game plan and came out on top! But wait, Gallus is on the tron! They “congratulate” the Family on the win, but warn them not to expect the same on Sunday. If Tony has learned anything from dealing with Gallus, it’s that he shouldn’t get too comfortable. This could all change in the blink of an eye. If Tony thought being locked up was bad, just wait until the Gallus boys are through with them! Their freedom will amount to nothing, because when it comes to the tag titles, it is always and forever, GALLUS BOYS ON TOP! Will that be proven true at the Great American Bash? Or will Tony & Stacks just tell ’em FOGEDABOUTIT?

 

Dijak speaks.

“Eddy Thorpe. You survived NXT Underground, and now you’re walking around with your chest puffed out. What’s worse, tough guy, is you think that qualifies you for championship contention, which is why I made you taste the shoe leather. Slow your roll, kid. Because one win doesn’t prove anything to me, especially when I’m chasing the same gold. In that ring, I’m the law. A clear streak of justice. And I hand that down with great conviction and reckless abandon! That’s something you do not want, and cannot beat.” Will Hard Justice put the Alpha Wolf on lockdown?

 

NXT shares more of the Perez-Davenport incident.

Blair herself was vlogging, claiming she knew Roxie would lean on her “best friend,” Booker T. And Blair says she is calm, collected, vicious, and proved everyone why she- AND THEN ROXIE ATTACKED! Roxie knocked Blair to the floor, snatched Blair’s phone and says “This live is over.” Security cam footage, as well as phone footage from the cashier, caught the rest. Roxie SMACKED Blair all around the tables, bowled her through the tables, and dragged Blair back up to bring her towards the back. Blair turned things around to send Roxie into the freezers! Blair shouted, “You wanna play games, Roxanne?!”

Blair opened the freezer and brought Roxie over, but Roxie fought back! Roxie ROCKS Blair with forearms, Blair returns then, ands ends Roxie into the shelves! Roxie tumbled, Blair stomped her, and sent her into the wall! And then into more shelves! But Roxie got up, got a shopping cart and RAMMED it into Blair! And again! And again! Roxie says “Clean up on aisle three!” Roxie then threw Blair into crates, threw those crates at Blair, and shouted, “This is what you wanted?! This is what you wanted!? Get your ass up, Blair!” Roxie then SMACKED Blair with the fridge door!

Police sirens could be heard, and Roxie says this is want everyone wanted! This is just a taste of the Roxie Blair gets at the Bash. The Prodigy is showing she can be just as bad as the Number One Gaijin, and now the stakes have been raised! It will be WEAPONS WILD at the Great American Bash! Will Roxie give Blair more brutality than she ever wanted?

 

The Meta Four is in the ring.

And in her best Scottish Accent (which still isn’t the best), Lash Legend uses Noam Dar’s catchphrase, “Hello hello hello,” and she welcomes us to Supernova Sessions. Dar is still comatose as Oro Mensah says the guest tonight is NOT that idiot, Eddy Thorpe! It is the man that inspired The Meta Four to victory last week, NOAM DAR! They shake and hug Dar, and Jakara Jackson says they should cheer the REAL Heritage Cup Champion! Fans boo instead. But Lash says that is right, Dar is the REAL Heritage Cup Champion! Nathan Frazer thinks he can go around calling himself champion? No, you got another thing comin’, boo.

Because Meta Four did some research! Six weeks ago, Dar was set to defend HIS Heritage Cup. But unfortunately, he was not medically cleared. So of course, Oro stepped forth to defend his guy, his brother, Dar! Oro pushed Nathan to his limit, but Nathan is a snake, a criminal! And he STOLE the last fall and then ran away with the cup! Jakara says Nathan never beat Dar. To be the man, you must BEAT the man! And when it comes to the cup, Dar IS the man! So with that said, they finally found a way to fix this all! They tell Dar that they have a great surprise. Look, look! It’s the HERITAGE CUP! Dar blinks, rubs his eyes, and he revives! He falls out of the wheelchair and stands right up!

Dar almost can’t believe it! But this isn’t a dream, this is REAL! Dar hugs his baby and stands on the couch. Jakara says this is the UNDISPUTED NXT Heritage Cup, Noam Dar~! Fans boo as Dar holds up the cup and says “HELLO HELLO HELLO! HEAR ME NOW! LIVE FROM THE MOON! I AM YOUR SENSEI! I AM STILL THE STAR PLAYER! AND I AM STILL THE ONLY REAL CHAMPION THAT’S HERE! AND IT’S SO SWEEEET~!” But wait! Here comes Frazer!! Frazer asks Dragon Lee if he is going insane, or is he seeing double? Dragon is seeing it, too! Two Heritage Cups, two annoying women, and someone too delusional to see he is NOT a champion.

Dar says no no no no no. He didn’t lose the cup! This is what a real champion looks like! Thank you, buh-bye, get outta here! Frazer wants Dar to put on deodorant first. Just like that cup in the ring with Dar, Dar is a MASSIVE FRAUD. No no no, Frazer’s the fraud! That is all counterfeit! Get security! Frazer says Dar clearly recovered from whatever injury befell him six weeks ago, so how about this? They sort this out here and now! Oro says that’s good, there are four of the Meta Four, and only two of them! Tranquilo, tranquilo, tranquilo! What makes you think they came alone? Yuilsa Leon drags Jakara outta the ring!

Lash freaks out and Valentina Feroz gets in to RANA her out! Oro and Dar swing on Frazer & Dragon, but they DOUBLE SUPERKICK them out! And then DOUBLE TOPE!! Direct hit on the boys of Meta Four, and the Frazer Squad stands tall! But will the real Heritage Cup Champion be sorted out soon enough?

 

NXT checks in with Chase University.

Andre Chase says we are just five days away from history! Duke Hudson echoes “History!” Five days from Thea Hail becoming the YOUNGEST Women’s Champion of all time! “OF ALL TIME!” From Thea making Tiff tap out! Yeah, tap out that BIIII- WHOA! WHOA! But is Thea ready to train? Yes, sir! No, is she ready to train!? LET’S GOOOO~! And so the team steps into the gym. Chase says the recruitment started three years ago, when Thea started wrestling school at just 16 years old. And she’s blossomed into Chase U material. Her parents had to drive her to independent shows cuz she was still too young to drive. And when National Signing Day came around, and Thea put on their hat, Chase U was ecstatic.

Theta hits the bag with Tiff’s face on it, then rips the face off it! Duke says Thea IS the future NXT Women’s Champion. Duke is the Chase U MVP, he’s like her mentor, motivator, best friend even. He was there when she won her first match ever! Chase knows Thea may not be the biggest or strongest, but she’s got heart! And that heart is like a lion’s, with a spirit second to none. She can put that Kimura on anyone at anytime! The school jogs with Thea as she has her own Rocky Balboa moment. If Thea clamps on the Kimura Lock, she will be champion. Do not doubt Thea. You doubt her, she wins the battle royal. You doubt her, Gold Rush happens. And last week!

And if you doubt her at the Great American Bash, you will hear “AND NEW~!” Miracles don’t happen every day or else they wouldn’t be miracles. But Thea doesn’t need a miracle, she just needs a chance! And she has that chance to prove people wrong, and that is the most fun thing to do. Thea doesn’t think she can win, she KNOWS it! And she’ll become THE YOUNGEST Women’s Champion ever!! Then will Thea make history happen this Sunday in Texas?

 

NXT shares footage from after last week’s episode.

NXT Media kept with Los Lotharios as Angel Garza chased after Humberto Carrillo. Garza wants his cousin to talk to him already! What is going on!? They argue, and Humberto says to listen to HIM for once! What are they doing? Are they chasing women or glory!? Y’know what, Humberto is not doing this anymore. Not until Garza wakes up! Garza gets m ad and he punches the wall! Is Los Lotharios falling apart? Or will they both get serious about being a top tag team?

 

Rhea Ripley w/ Dominik Mysterio VS Lyra Valkyria!

With her Latino Heat by her side, Mami looks to eradicate the Morrigan in their first match-up ever. Will Rhea prove why she is the most dominant woman in WWE today? Or will Lyra shock the world by beating the most dominant woman in WWE today?

NXT returns and Lyra makes her entrance. The bell rings and the two stare down. Fans rally, the two circle, and they tie up. They go around, Rhea puts Lyra in a corner, and she talks trash on Lyra. Rhea dares Lyra to show her what she’s got, and she lets off. Lyra and Rhea circle again, tie up and Lyra headlocks. Rhea blocks the takeover, lifts Lyra and TOSSES her, but Lyra lands on her feet! Fans cheer, Rhea eggs Lyra on again and the two circle. They approach, Lyra gets around to waistlock but Rhea elbows free! Rhea headlocks and grinds Lyra, but Lyra powers up and out. Rhea runs Lyra over and fans cheer.

Rhea dusts herself off, looms over Lyra, and drags her up. Rhea grins, whips Lyra but Lyra ducks ‘n’ dodges and directs to trip Rhea up! Rhea lands hard, and Lyra steps all over her! Rhea gets mad now, and Lyra eggs Mami on. Fans duel, Rhea swings but Lyra dodge! Lyra flips through the hip toss, wheelbarrows to a victory roll, TWO! Rhea rushes in to kick low! Rhea is annoyed and she CLUBS Lyra. Rhea bumps Lyra off buckles, then stands her up to RAM into her! And again! And again! The ref counts, Rhea lets off, and she CHOPS Lyra down! Dom likes what he sees as Rhea stalks Lyra to a corner.

Rhea whips corner to corner, but Lyra goes up and over and keeps moving. Lyra slides under then tilt-o-whirls, to RANA Rhea away! Rhea staggers up but into a victory roll! Rhea blocks it, brings Lyra up in a wheelbarrow, and GERMAN SUPLEX! Fans fire up as Rhea DROPKICKS Lyra out! Lyra checks her chin, Rhea says this is WHY she’s the Women’s World Champion, and she gives Dom a little kiss on the head while NXT goes picture in picture.

Rhea goes out to fetch Lyra, but she tells the fans to “SUCK IT!” first. The ring count starts but Rhea SMACKS Lyra off the apron! Rhea drags Lyra up, brings her around, and she puts Lyra in the ring. Cover, TWO! Rhea drags Lyra around, and HIP DROPS her! Rhea stands over Lyra, brings her up, and HIP DROPS her again! Dom smirks as Rhea HIP DROPS, but onto knees! Dom stops smirking and Rhea hurries after Lyra, but Lyra HEADBUTTS! And fires off forearms! Lyra keeps after Rhea but Rhea kicks her low! Lyra goes to ropes and Rhea CHOKES her! The ref counts, Rhea lets off, and she soaks up the cheers and jeers.

Lyra goes to the apron, Rhea drags her up, but Lyra HOTSHOTS Rhea away! Lyra catches her breath on the outside while the ring count climbs, and she slides in, only for Rhea to stomp her! Rhea drags Lyra around and KICKS her on the back! Rhea stalks Lyra to ropes, stands her up, and NXT returns to single picture as Rhea shoves and ROCKS Lyra in the back! Rhea shoves Lyra to ropes again, to ROCK her in the back again! Rhea storms up on Lyra, brings her up and shoves her again, but Lyra blocks forearm to hook the arms! Rhea fights the backslide, turns it around but Lyra flips through! Rhea whips, but Lyra tilt-o-whirls again!

Rhea elbows Lyra to stop the rest of that, then SMASHES Lyra off her knee! Then hits an ATOMIC FACEBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Lyra survives and Rhea is shocked! Dom cheers Rhea on, Rhea drags Lyra up and pump handles! RIP- NO, Lyra slips out to have a SLEEPER! But Rhea RAMS Lyra into buckles! Lyra holds on, but Rhea throws her away! Lyra comes back, into body scissors and HEADBUTT! Rhea glares at Lyra, drags her around, and then goes up the corner. Rhea looks to copy Latino Heat, but Lyra rises first! Lyra trips Rhea up! And shoves her down to the floor! Dom panics, Lyra builds speed, and Dom gets Rhea outta the way to take the DROPKICK!

Lyra then LEAPS to RANA Rhea away! Fans fire up as Lyra puts Rhea in the ring! Lyra hurries up top now, fans tell Dom “YOU DESERVE IT!” Lyra CROSSBODIES, but Rhea catches her! And pops Lyra up, but Lyra turns it to a SATELLITE DDT!! Lyra hurries up top again, fans fire up for the DIVING SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!! Rhea survives and Lyra is shocked! Dom has both belts in his hands, is he planning what it looks like he’s planning? Lyra storms up on Rhea to OSBAT, front kick, and HEADBUTT! “This is Awesome!” as Lyra ENZIGURIS! Rhea wobbles, Lyra gets in her face and gives some trash talk back!

Lyra KICKS Rhea around and around, and fires up with every shot! Lyra runs to dropkick a leg out! Rhea flounders, Lyra runs up, but Rhea ducks the heel kick! Rhea back suplexes but Lyra lands out of it! Lyra shoves, runs, but Rhea BOOTS her down! Pump handle, RIPTIDE!!! Cover, Rhea wins!!

Winner: Rhea Ripley, by pinfall

The Morrigan gave the Eradicator one hell of a fight, and almost had it, but she’s still not there yet. Even so, Rhea sits Lyra up, and tells her “Prove me right and beat Jacy Jayne.” Mami still respects Lyra, and Lyra says she’ll make her proud. Will the Toxic Traitor pay for riling up both Lyra and Rhea?

 

Trick Williams heads to gorilla.

He wants that fight with The Czar, but will he get it? We find out, after the break.

 

NXT returns and Trick is in the ring.

“Ilja Dragunov! This Sunday, Melo’s gonna take care o’ business like he always does. That means he’s gonna take your jersey, add it to his collection, and put it in the rafters. But tonight’s not about none of that. Tonight’s about me, you and this fight! So Dragunov, bring your ass out here!” Trick throws down the mic, and here comes Dragunov! Trick meets Dragunov at the ramp to CLOBBER him! And CLUB him, and CLUB him again! And send him into barriers! Fans chant ‘WHOOP THAT TRICK!” but for who? Trick fires off on Dragunov more and more, the fans torn on this, but Trick then scoops to SLAM Dragunov!

Trick talks trash, he looms over Dragunov, and he RAMS Dragunov into steel steps! Dragunov hobbles up, Trick leaps off the steps, but Dragunov ENZIGURIS him outta the sky! And then GERMAN SUPLEXES him! And again! And again! Trick flounders and Dragunov looms over him now. Dragunov puts Trick in the ring, fans duel, and Dragunov powers Trick to a corner. Dragunov MACHINE GUN CHOPS Trick until he sits down, and even then he still CHOPS! Dragunov tells Trick to stand up, and the CHOPS continue! Dragunov then TOSSES Trick, stalks him, and fans rally. Dragunov stands on Trick, but Trick grabs a foot!

Dragunov kicks free to then FALLING HAMMER!! Fans are torn as Dragunov aims from the corner! RUNNING HAMMER SMASH!! Dragunov isn’t done, he drags Trick up again, despite Trick being a ragdoll! Dragunov DUMPS Trick into a corner, stands him up, and says Trick wanted to fight! Dragunov goes to the far corner, “UN! BE! SIEG! BAR!!” Dragunov runs back in, but MELO takes the TORPEDO MOSCOW!! Melo saves his best friend from demise, and that seems to surprise Dragunov. But in the end, Dragunov has the title and the mic, and he tells Melo, “You are a man of honor. And loyalty is very rare nowadays.

“So hang onto your friendship with Trick. Because after The Great American Bash, he will be all you have left after I TAKE YOUR NXT CHAMPIONSHIP!!” The ultimatum has been sent, but will Dragunov win this ultimate battle with HIM?


My Thoughts:

A great episode for NXT, especially as a go-home. Great bookending of the night with the NXT Championship story, with the Six Man Tag opening. Great match, for one, and then those two Schism follower guys trip Dyad. Those two are clearly Julius & Brutus in disguise for a big reveal that they’re defying the Losers Leave NXT ruling. And then with the “misunderstanding” spot, they took that to a logical extreme where Trick is still mad and still wants to fight. Trick getting whooped was definitely the best way to close the go-home cuz no way was Trick whooping Dragunov. But with Dragunov standing tall, he is most likely to lose per go-home math rules. Which is fine, Melo is a great superstar and deserves to keep going, but I just wonder where Dragunov is to go next.

We saw where Bron is going next, and that is finally feuding with Von. Bron VS Von is going to be great stuff, especially now that they’ve swapped, Bron is the Heel and Von is the Face. And they are both second generation superstars, so they can play that up, too. Speaking of second generation superstars, Dom had a good promo with Rhea, Wes and Ali. And just as I was hoping, we’re getting a Triple Threat for the North American Championship for Great American Bash. This way, someone can win while all three parts still look strong. Personally, hoping Ali wins so he finally gets a title in WWE, but he or Wes can win by pinning the other, Dom loses the title and can complain he never got pinned for it, but then too bad, so sad, he moves on to another feud before getting a rematch.

And speaking of never being pinned to lose their championship, I’m glad they saw the story I did with Noam Dar! The Meta Four Sessions wasn’t the best way to start this but it did give the faction a platform to bring up how Oro lost the cup to Frazer, not Dar, and then they get Dar a replica cup to revive him. Great brawl between factions, with Frazer’s side standing tall. One, I want a 8 Person Mixed Tag, and then that will lead into two, the Undisputed Heritage Cup Championship match. That could go either way, as it is hard to say what Dar would do after “truly” losing the cup. But Frazer would be fine, cuz he could still hop into the NAC or top title scenes.

Great stuff from Tony & Stacks VS Nima & Price, and Scrypts did alright on commentary, but he was obviously just there for Axiom to go after. Axiom VS Scrypts one last time has to be coming, and that will be great stuff. Good win for Tony & Stacks to go into the tag title match, and good promo from Gallus on the tron. But I think with Tony & Stacks winning here, they’re going to fall short at GAB. And really good promo from Los Lotharios, I really like that Humberto is saying they should be a serious team and actually try for titles. Those two are great at all parts of pro-wrestling as they’re from a family of wrestlers, so those two really could be busting out amazing matches in NXT, and it’d be awesome to see them go up against Gallus.

Kemp joining up with Gulak & Dempsey is a nice surprise, and that trio feels like what Diamond Mine could’ve/should’ve been, would love to see them go for tag titles and the Heritage Cup at the same time. Really good promo from Tiffany, and great vignette from Chase U to really hype up Thea. Tiffany has only complained that this is a submission match now instead of preparing for a submission match, I wonder if she doesn’t so much win as gets disqualified and uses Champion’s Advantage to retain. At the same time, she could spam basic holds like the Boston Crab and somehow make that work.

Good promo from Dijak to call out Eddy Thorpe, they’re going to have a really good post-GAB match. So much hype for Gable Steveson’s “decision” when we knew he’d choose NXT. But it’s almost disappointing that Corbin is his first opponent. It almost feels like it should’ve been Kemp since they’re brothers in reality, and Kemp could blame Gable for why Thorpe won in NXT Underground. But Corbin is the most experienced guy on the roster, he needs something to do to keep his callback going, and I guess Corbin being fed to Gable is that thing.

Great Kendo Stick match out of Dana VS Cora, and Kelani ending up the distraction for Dana was a fitting move. It’s tricky for a mentor-student duo to be Face because such situations like this can happen and people question how they’re the Faces. But in this case, it was karma on Cora for always using cheap tactics. And likewise, Roxie brawling with Blair in that bodega, Roxie is still Face cuz this is karma on Blair for her sneak attacks. It was almost Stone Cold VS Booker T in the grocery store, and that was kinda fun, too. Weapons Wild for these two is going to be wild, and I cannot wait.

And great main event match out of Rhea VS Lyra, with Lyra really holding her own. Rhea wins, of course, but her encouraging Lyra to settle things with Jacy was a nice detail. It was both Rhea and WWE management showing that they see a lot of promise in Lyra. Assuming Thea doesn’t win at GAB, I would think Lyra is next up and she dethrones Tiffany. Lyra herself mentioned she got her start in NXT UK, and as far as I’m concerned, she’s been building herself up since then, none of this “NXT white ‘n’ gold is a clean slate for her” stuff. She should be seen as a contender, she should be a champ, and she will get there before the end of the year.

My Score: 8.8/10

Jack Perry arrives.

The Scapegoat arrives in his black bus, but he also leaves the engine running while he heads inside. What is the twisted TNT Champion planning for tonight?

 

Daniel Garcia VS Johnny TV w/ MXM Collection!

Speaking of the TNT Championship, it will be Red Death challenging Jack Perry for that gold. But before he becomes the Face of TNT, can he prove to Johnny and the world that he is #TVReady?

The bell rings and Garcia circles with Johnny. They tie up, go around, and Johnny powers Garcia to a corner. The ref counts, Johnny lets off slowly, but then he takes a swing! Garcia dodges, headlocks and grinds Johnny. Johnny powers up and out, then he RUNS Garcia over! The fans are torn but Garcia gets up to shake that off.

Johnny poses before he stalks Garcia to the ramp. Johnny taunts Garcia, kicks him around, then has him against railing. Johnny ROCKS Garcia, follows him around the way, then runs him into railing! Garcia falls over, Johnny refreshes the ring count, and MXM mug Garcia behind the ref’s back! The fans protest but MXM gest away with that.

And CHOP again! Johnny kicks low and then TOSSES Garcia out hard!

Johnny poses, then builds speed, to TORNILLO ATTACK! Johnny and MXM are all fired up, and even the fans have to admit that was good. But wait, JACK PERRY SMACKS MATT MENARD! The fans freak out as the Scapegoat TOSSES Daddy Magic over railing! Johnny mugs Garcia, puts him in the ring, then drags Garcia up to a fireman’s carry. Garcia fights with elbows and then hammers away on Johnny! Garcia reels Johnny in for a SAIDO! The fans fire up, MXM coaches Johnny, and both men slowly rise.

Garcia fires off haymakers on Johnny, stomps a mudhole in, and the fans fire up with Garcia! The ref counts, Garcia lets off, but he runs side to side for a BOOT WASH! Garcia storms around, and he runs up, gets around, and he spins Johnny, TWIST ‘N’ SHOUT! Cover, TWO! Johnny survives and MXM is relieved. Garcia grits his teeth and he drags Johnny back up. Garcia reels Johnny in, but Johnny resists the lift! Johnny DUMPS Garcia up and out! MXM swarm again! The fans boo as Johnny keeps the ref from seeing this. But then Garcia POSTS Mansoor! Mason scoops Garcia but Garcia slips free to POST Mason!

Garcia hurries into the ring, but gets a FLYING CHUCK and a MOONLIGHT DRIVE for it! Johnny goes up, STARSHIP FLOP as Garcia moves! Garcia runs up to SHOTGUN Johnny down! Garcia then runs up, gets around, COBRA CLUTCH, and ANACONDA VICE! Johnny TAPS, Garcia wins!

Winner: Daniel Garcia, by submission

Red Death overcomes 3v1 odds, but now he realizes something happened to Menard! Garcia asks what happens, Schiavone and Nigel explain it was Perry. Wait, cameras have caught up and now Perry is brawling with Menard in the back! Garcia hurries to the back, but Perry throws Menard into railing! And SMACKS him with a floor sign! Perry stalks Menard while commentary says AEW is coming unglued! Things have moved to the parking lot, and Perry SMACKS Menard off the Scapegoat bus! “You think he’s ready? You think he’s ready!? Then you’re what’s holding him back. But I’m gonna fix that.”

Perry shoves Menard aside, then goes into the bus. Perry brings out a tow chain, with a hook on it! Perry CLUBS Menard, then hooks him up to the back of the bus! Between the chain and the bus exhaust, Menard is coughing and sputtering. Perry tells Menard, “We all have to sacrifice.” Perry then goes into the bus, but Garcia runs up! Garcia fires off on Perry, throws him into the side of the bus, “You thought this was a game?!” Garcia stomps Perry, and he frees Menard from the chain. Garcia stands Perry up abut Menard has an idea. Menard takes the camera, but Collision goes to break. What hell will Garcia put Perry through a week before Full Gear?

 

Lio Rush speaks.

“I am sick and tired of feeling the way that I’ve been feeling lately. Lost and confused on where I stand with the people that surrounded me. It’s really hard to know exactly who you are when you lose the matches that mean the most. But then I take a deep breath, I look at my watch, and I remember that I’m the Man of the Hour. I came to AEW to collect titles. I’m a 30-year-old piece of gold, and I pray that the people I call friends get on the same page. Because it’s only a matter of time before Lio Rush is rushing to the top.”

 

Garcia has Perry tied to the hood of the bus!

Garcia shouts at Perry that he was waiting for a reason! Garcia and Menard get in the bus, and they take Perry for a ride! They go through guard rails, up a ramp, and perhaps even into town! Will the Scapegoat end up a bug on a windshield?

 

Shelton Benjamin w/ MVP VS Komander w/ Alex Abrahantes!

While Bobby Lashley prepares for Full Gear, the Hurt Syndicate is looking for those ready to join up. Will the Standard of Excellence find the Commander of the Skies worth the investment? Or will he just be a waste of time?

Shelton clinches for the CROTCH LIFT SUPLEX! Komander flounders but Shelton stalks him. The fans rally for Shelton as he whips Komander corner to corner hard!

The fans fire up as things speed up, and Komander FLAPJACK DROPKICKS!

The fans rally as Komander runs up to mule kick, SUPERKICK, and knoucle lock! Koamnder goes up and up, around and around, then FLYING- NO! Shelton stops the rana to pop Komander into a BEARHUG! Then an OVERHEAD SUPLEX! Komander flounders but MVP says no more toying around. Shelton stalks Komander to the apron then kicks him to the floor while Collision goes pictur ein picture.

Shelton goes out after Komander, brings him back up, and he RAMS Komander into the railing! And the apron! And back to railing! Shelton RAMS Komander into the apron then THROWS him at the railing! Komander is down in a heap and MVP is all fired up! MVP talks a bit of trash to Komander while Shelton steps into the ring. The ring count climbs, and Shelton waits. Komander manages to get in at 7 of 10! Shelton stomps Komander, then brings him up from the apron side. Shelton has Komander literally on the ropes, to then BOOT him down! Komander hits the floor and MVP says it’s fine, he can stay down.

Shelton goes out after Komander, drags him up, and tosses him back into the ring. Shelton stalks Komander, then clamps on with a chinlock. Komander endures, but Shelton grinds him and twists him into a stretch. Komander continues to endure while Collision goes to break.

Collision returns and Shelton whips Komander to FLAPJACK! Komander lands hard and sputters, but Shelton stands on him for a cocky cover. ONE, but Shelton smirks. The fans rally while Shelton stalks Komander to a corner. Shelton stomps Komander, hoists him up top, and slaps him around! Komander SLAPS back! And BOOTS! Komander adjusts position, dodges Shelton, and kicks the legs out! Shelton falls back, Komander goes up! MISSILE DROPKICK! The fans fire up and Komander rises! Komander storms up but Shelton kicks low. Shelton suplexes, but Komander slips around! SLEEPER, then ELEVATED COBRA TWIST!

Shelton endures, powers out, but Komander handsprings through the hip toss! Komander runs, tilt-o-whirls, DEJA VU RANA! Shelton tumbles out and the fans fire up with Komander! Komander hurries to a corner and climbs! Komander tightrope walks the 20 feet, to then SPACE MAN MOONSAULT! Down goes Shelton and the fans are thunderous! Komander hurries to get Shelton up but Shelton ELBOWS him away. Shelton slides into the ring himself, but Komander follows. MVP is furious as Komander runs, 619! Shelton is down and Komander goes up again! MVP shouts at Shelton while Komander aims.

Komander tightrope walks again but has to bail out as Shelton moves! Shelton waistlocks to GERMAN SUPLEX! And then GERMAN SUPLEX again! Komander flounders to a corner, Shelton runs up to STEP-UP KNEE! And then a SUPERKICK! Komander gets folded up and MVP says finish it already! Shelton hauls Komander up, clinches, and hits PAYDIRT! Cover, Shelton wins!

Winner: Shelton Benjamin, by pinfall

MVP stands with Shelton in the victory, but Komander definitely give more of a fight than either man expected. MVP then says we should leave with a souvenir! Shelton grabs at Komander’s mask! Abrahantes gets in the ring to stop Shelton, but then he sees MVP there. MVP grabs Abrahantes by the neck! MVP LARIATS Abrahantes down! MVP may be a manager now, but he can still hit other managers hard. Will nothing stop The Hurt Syndicate from owning AEW?

 

Backstage interview with Kris Statlander.

Renee Paquette is with the #BornAgainKristen and says that we’re just one week away from Kris VS Mercedes Mone for the TBS Championship at Full Gear. Things have already gotten out of control, from Mone & Kamille trying to run Kris over with a car, and then Kris tackles them through a wall. Once the bell rings, what can we expect? Kris says, “Anything and everything.” Mone is one of the best, will do anything she can to win, and is most dangerous when she’s cornered, where she is right now. Everything she’s tried hasn’t worked because Kris is still standing. Kris will be the one standing tall as the NEW TBS Champion.

In steps Hikaru Shida with enthusiastic applause. The Shining Samurai tells Kris that she just wants to wish her luck. It’s about time someone beats Mone’s boney ass! And when Kris becomes the new champion, Shida will gladly be her first challenger. Kris says alright, sure. But here’s another idea: Kris is always open for a challenge any time, especially against #HolyShida, the only THREE-TIME AEW Women’s World Champion. So how about this? Wednesday Night Dynamite, Shida VS Kris. Shida’s all for it! They shake hands, but will fighting Shida be a little too much before going to Full Gear? Or will it prove Kris is still The Galaxy’s Greatest?

 

Backstage interview with The Acclaimed.

Lexy Nair is with Max Caster & Anthony Bowens ahead of their huge Full Gear Tag Team Contenders Series match with La Faccion Ingobernable. But where is Billy Gunn? Caster asks that more importantly, where are their heads going into the match? Because Caster just has to say, as the Best Wrestler Alive, he’s feeling real confident. Bowens says for Lexy’s actual question, Billy will be here. What Caster was trying to say is that The Acclaimed do feel great, because they are one match away from joining that Fatal 4, where they will become TWO-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions in the Scissor King’s home state of New Jersey!

And when they win, The Acclaimed will celebrate with one big scissoring, because EVERYONE LOVES THE ACCLAIMED! Ain’t that right, Lexy? Oh, wait, MVP steps in, Shelton Benjamin by his side. The Hurt Syndicate just wants to wish The Acclaimed luck. The Syndicate handled their business, so Caster & Bownes should handle theirs. Oh, and Max, use your size and strength. This is a big opportunity, don’t blow it. The Syndicate heads out, but will The Acclaimed win to impress MVP? Or to get back where they belong?

 

“Powerhouse” Will Hobbs VS Bulk Bronson w/ The Iron Savages!

The return of the Powerhouse is truly big for AEW, but all the Iron Savages are big. And Jacked Jameson wants everyone to hold on. The fat morons and skinny idiots of Albany can shut up. Jameson gives all the introductions, and looking at “P-P-Powerhouse,” all you people are expecting a meat madness match! You want meat?! Then yeah, chant it up! But here’s some news: all these losers are going on a vegan diet! There will be no meat tonight! Because they are The Iron Savages, sippin’ sauce and livin’ hoss while they take all the Low T Meatriders to #TIDDYCITY! Guess Bronson can do it, too?

The bell rings and the fans rally up. Bronson pumps up and puffs up, but he’s looking lean compared to Hobbs. Bronson runs, RAMS Hobbs, but Bronson bounces off! The fans fire up but the Savages coach Bronson up. Hobbs says stop playing and bring it! Hobbs SLAPS Bronson, so Bronson really fires up! Bronson kicks low, and says, “How ’bout that, Hobbs?!” Bronson runs, but Hobbs dodges and CLOBBERS him! The fans fire up while Hobbs brings Bronson around. Scoop and SLAM, and the fans fire up with Hobbs! Hobbs then brings Bronson up to scoop and SLAM again! Bronson writhes, the fans chant for “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!”

Hobbs drags Bronson up, scoops and SLAMS again! Bronson writhes while Hobbs looms over him. Hobbs brings Bronson up, but Bronson wrenches out to ROCK Hobbs! Bronson fires haymakers, then CLUBS away on Hobbs’ back! The fans rally, Bronson reels Hobbs in, but Hobbs suplexes Bronson first! Bronson flounders into a corner, the fans fire up as Hobbs headbutts buckles! Hobbs runs up to SPLASH in the corner! Hobbs says he’s got all the meat! Hobbs LARIATS point blank again and again as fans chant “MEAT!” Hobbs lets Bronson stagger about, before he CLOBBERS him!

Hobbs shakes the ropes, and the straps come down! The fans fire up but Jameson talks trash on the apron. Hobbs DECKS him! Boulder runs in?! Hobbs hits a SPINEBUSTER! The ref can’t believe what’s going on as Hobbs torture racks Bronson! ARGENTINE RACK! Bronson TAPS, Hobbs wins! And drops Bronson on Boulder!

Winner: “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs, by submission

Big, jacked, and ANYBODY can get it! That is the way of the Powerhouse! Will the Book of Hobbs have quite the comeback story?

 

Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.

Lexy is now with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett. She congratulates Roddy for getting his third win via Lance Archer. Roddy now faces MJF at Full Gear, so how is he feeling? How’s he feeling? First, thanks for all that, Lexy, he appreciates it. Second, “MAAAX! You have seven days. Seven days from right now until you’re standing across the ring from me, Max. And look, I got a lot to say, and on Wednesday, you’re gonna hear it all, but I just wanna leave you with this: Max, you walk around here thinking you’re smarter than everybody, you’re better than everybody. I don’t think you realize what you’ve gotten yourself into.

“I am the Messiah of the Backbreaker. I am a damn wrestling legend! And when Full Gear ends, you’re gonna realize that I’m better than you, and you know it!” Roddy is ready to throw it all back in MJF’s face, but will the Wolf of Wrestling have a contingency plan?

 

Private Party is here!

The MVP Arena is ready to party with the champs, and Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy are ready to watch the final match of the contenders’ series! Who joins Private Party, The Outrunners, and The Kings of the Black Throne at Full Gear?

Full Gear Tag Team Contenders Series: Rush & The Beast Mortos w/ Jake “The Snake” Roberts VS The Acclaimed w/ Billy Gunn!

Platinum Max of course has a diss track. “These dudes gotta be embarrassed. You ’bout to lose bigger than Kamala Harris! LFI in a title match is outta place. It’s like Mexicans being managed by Jake the Snake! I would’ve called the committee, but you’re lucky Albany’s a sanctuary city!” Bowens takes over to say, “ALBANAAAAAY~! The Acclaimed have arrived! Scissor me, Daddy Ass~!” And he does~! But Caster doesn’t? The teams sort out, and while Caster wants to, Bowens convinces him to let Bowens start. Mortos steps up and the fans sing while the bell rings. Bowens and Mortos circle, tie up, and Mortos powers Bowens to a corner.

The ref counts, Mortos lets off, but Bowens dodges the shot to fire CHOPS! Mortos just roars! Mortos runs up, Bowens dodges to CHOP, CHOP and fire forearms!

Caster raises the ingobernable fist, Rush is moderately amused, but then Caster sucker punches him! Rush scowls and DECKS Caster! Rush goes out to grab his favorite green cable! Mortos distracts the ref, but Caster fires hands on Rush first! And Caster uses the cable! The fans cheer as Rush tastes his own medicine!

But then Rush SLINGS Caster to the floor! Billy is upset but the ref wants him to stay back. Billy tries to point out the shenanigans, but Collision goes picture in picture.

The ref is busy with Billy and that lets Rush LASH Caster with the cable! Rush SMACKS Caster off the desk, Caster scrambles into the ring, but Rush anchors his leg. Rush drags Caster up, CHOPS him then ROCKS him, then bumps him off buckles. Tag to Mortos and Mortos SMACKS Caster! Cover, TWO! Caster toughs it out but Mortos NECK GTWISTS! Cover, TWO! Mortos stalks Caster to a corner while Private Party watches closely. Mortos SMACKS Caster again! Mortos puts Caster in the corner, taunts Bowens, and while the ref is busy with Bowens, that lets The Snake get in cheap shots!

Billy and Bowens both protest, but Mortos wrenches Caster. Tag to Rush and LFI mugs Caster. Caster goes to a corner but Rush whips corner to corner. Rush runs up and feints the dropkick to SMACK Caster! Rush soaks up the cheers and jeers while he blows a kiss. Rush drags Caster up to snapmare and motorcycle stretch. Caster endures but Jake is happy with this. Caster fights up, but Rush throws him down by his hair! Private Party doesn’t like how this is going for Acclaimed, but Rush taunts Bowens. The ref has ot keep Bownse back again, and Rush drags Caster back. Tag to Mortos and LFI mugs Caster more while Collision goes to break.

Mortos roars, but Bowens sends him into the corner! Mortos tumbles up and out, then Bowens gives Rush the kick, kick, and FAMOUSER! Bowens shouts, “EVERYONE LOVES THE ACCLAIMED!” Bowens then goes up and aims, SUPER CROSSBODY onto Mortos! The fans fire up and Bowens hurries to put Mortos in. Cover, TWO! Mortos stays in this, but Bowens stays focused. Bowens fires forearms but Mortos hits back.

Bowens fires a flurry, then whips, but Mortos reverses. Mortos POP-UP SAMOAN DROPS Bowens down! The fans fire up but Caster MISSILE DROPKCIKS Mortos! Rush runs up, but Caster SUPERKICKS him! Caster runs at Rush, but Rush THROWS him into the corner! Bowens DECKS Rush! The fans fire up as all four men are down! Private Party likes this, too, as Billy coaches his guys. Jake also coaches LFI, and “This is Awesome!” Mortos blocks a shot to HEADBUTT Bowens down! Tag to Rush and Rush runs at the corner, only for Bowens to dodge! Bowens CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS away!

Bowens sits Rush down, mocks the tranquilo with some scissor fingers, but that pisses Rush off! Rush shoves Bowens, the hands start flying! Rush whips Bowens to a corner, to CHOP, CHOP, and CHOP! Rush sits Bowens down to stomp away! The ref counts, Rush argues with him, but then goes corner to corner! Feint and BOOT! Rush gives a proper tranquilo, then he has the fans fired up. Bownes runs up, but into a SNAP POWERSLAM! Rush puts Bowens in the drop zone, goes up, SUPER SENTON FLOPS! Tag to Caster and he goes up! DIVING SPLASH! Cover, Mortos breaks it! Mortos gets Rush to safety, then tags in.

Rush dodges Caster, Mortos ROCKS him! Rush hits a BACKSTABBER, then holds Caster up for Mortos’ MISSILE DROPKICK! Cover, Bowens breaks it! Rush CHOPS Bowens, Mortos whips Caster, and then Mortos CLOBBERS Caster! The fans rally as Rush says now it’s time! But Bowens fires off Rock, Paper, Scissors SUPERKICK! Mortos CLOBBERS Bowens! Mortos then runs at Caster, CANNONBALL MISSES! Hot tag to Bowens and he hits THE ARRIVAL on Mortos! MIC DROP from Caster!! Cover, ACCLAIMED WINS!

Winners: The Acclaimed, by pinfall (advance to Full Gear)

Private Party says alright, nice on Acclaimed! Billy helps Caster to his feet, but Caster is a bit squirrely. Caster calms down, and The Acclaimed all SCISSOR FINGER~! They’re in the Fatal 4, but will Caster & Bowens be the ones to become TWO-TIME TWO-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions?

 

PROGRAMMING NOTE for next week!

With Full Gear being next Saturday, November 23rd, Collision takes a week off! We’ll see everyone back here in two weeks on November 30th!

 

Backstage interview with Mina Shirakawa.

Lexy is with the Fighting Gravure Idol and congratulates her on her win in her return. Mina says yes, she is so back to have come back here, and she is so excited for Mariah’s match. Lexy says Mina already has multiple championships, is AEW gold on her mind at all? Mina says she’s just excited for Mariah’s match. But that’s not a no… Time to dance! Mina shimmies her way on out, but will she end up wanting something more than just fun with her friend?

 

Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.

Lexy is now with Mark Briscoe, Rocky Romero & Tomohiro Ishii, and she notes that in a couple weeks, Dynamite: Thanksgiving Eve, it will be Tomohiro Ishii VS Chris Jericho for the ROH World Championship. How is Ishii feeling? The Stone Pitbull is stone-faced, so Mark Briscoe “translates” what #BigTom is exuding with his aura. This is what he’s trying to say: Jericho, your days are numbered! You better shine that title up real nice, sleep with it real close, because soon, it’s getting up outta there! “Learning Tree my ass, you about to learn a lesson about humility! You about to learn a lesson about gettin’ your ass whooped!”

Mark asks if they understand what he’s saying, and Rocky says yeah, he’s picking up what Mark’s putting down. Rocky’s digging the energy, and he feels the intensity. But he has to know one thing: What is the word of the day? That’s a hell of a question, Rocky, because today, it is a menagerie of words! Take a basket, reach in, pull out the word of the day, and well, it’s tenacious! Tenacity! Ferocious! Velocity! Ferocity! He’s tellin’ ya, long story short, that title is coming back to the Conglomeration, courtesy of Tomohiro Ishii! Jericho, you gettin’ your ass whooped, son! RARARARA!

Mark may be fire on the outside, but Ishii is fire on the inside. Will The Learning Tree be burned down either way?

 

Backstage interview with FTR.

Lexy notes that this past Wednesday, Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood came up short in their own Full Gear Contenders Series match. Where are their heads out right now? Cash says he wishes he had an answer, because he doesn’t really know. FTR doesn’t know where they go from here. They wish it was just one bad night, but the truth of the matter is, FTR lost those titles a little over a year ago and have had chances to get them back where they just haven’t. Maybe it’s FTR. Maybe their time has passed them. Maybe they need to reevaluate. Dax agrees. But on Dynamite, the better team won on that night.

While FTR could cry about it, or they could rebuild. Therefore, they will rebuild. This may not be FTR’s time, but it is someone’s time. It is The Outrunners’ time! And maybe after Full Gear, we get an FTRunners dream match for those titles. Boys, they’re pulling for you. Speaking of, we’re about to hear from The Outrunners right now!

The Outrunners speak.

Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd have another retro style video in old standard definition, saying they’ve got the looks and the attitude, so you know they’ve got “the stuff!” It’s a highlight reel of their match with Top Flight, even using retro graphics in the editing. You gotta have the meat! And right now, they’re sizzling! But will Truth & Turbo be prime A1 material at Full Gear? Or will they end up well done?

 

AEW Women’s World Championship No Disqualifications Match: Mariah May VS Anna Jay!

The Battle of the Belts was a Title Eliminator that went The Queenslayer’s way, only for The Glamour to get her revenge in the proper title match. However, all the back and forth, the bullying and the brawling, it has led to this rubber match! And as if No Disqualifications isn’t raising the stakes enough, Anna promises that if she loses, this is the last time she challenges Mariah for the title! Will this last chance be just the chance Anna needs to become The Star of the Show? Or will AEW still be All About Mariah?

Anna already brings a duffel bag of weaponry, and Nigel panics for Mariah’s sake. But Mariah came prepared with a trash can, baseball bat, and proper attire for a Street Fight. The introductions are made, but Mariah throws her can already! Anna dodges then SHOTGUNS Mariah! The bell rings, Anna is right on Mariah, and she sends Mariah into the railing! And then the steel steps! And then back into railing! The fans fire up while Anna keeps after Mariah with haymakers. Anna whips Mariah hard into railing! The Vendetta watches backstage, they seem to like Anna bringing out the violence as she SMACKS Mariah off the desk!

Anna confiscates a monitor to SMACK Mariah on the back! Mariah falls into Schaivone’s arms, and Nigel is furiously jealous! Anna SMACKS Mariah off the apron, then grabs herself a chair, to SMACK Mariah with it legs first! Anna pushes Mariah into the ring, then goes up a corner. Mariah stands into Anna’s BLOCKBUSTER! The fans fire up as Anna keeps going, and she sits the chair up nearby. Anna drags Mariah up, but Mariah fires body shots! DDT onto the chair! Anna falls back while Mariah snarls. Mariah grabs the trash can and puts it around Anna! Mariah drums on the can, then goes to a corner.

Mariah climbs, Anna stands, and Mariah MISSILE DROPKICKS Anna down! Cover, TWO! Anna survives but Mariah just goes outside to look under the ring. The fans fire up in anticipation, and Mariah grins as she brings out a LADDER! Mariah pushes that ladder into the ring, stomps Anna around, then drags the ladder up. The ladder is propped up in a corner, then whips Anna, but Anna reverses! Mariah avoids hitting the ladder, but Anna has the QUEENSLAYER SLEEPER! Mariah flails, reaches out, but Anna hops on as a backpack! Only for Mariah to SENTON onto the ladder!

The fans fire up while both women are down, and Collision goes picture in picture.

Mariah sputters and coughs while she crawls to ropes. Mariah rolls out of the ring and hurries to look under the ring again. Mariah brings out a new chair, but Anna has brought out one of her own! They each slide the chairs in, and then they add more chairs! And more chairs! So many chairs! They both storm in, armed with chairs, and they CLASH! Mariah is disarmed, so Anna SMACKS her down! Anna goes for her duffel bag! Anna brings out… a crowbar, a wrench, wire, a chain, but she wants the PRYBAR! Mariah ROCKS Anna first, then THRWOS her down onto the chairs! Mariah stomps Anna, then sees all the goodies Anna brought!

Mariah picks up the strap! Mariah LASHES Anna, LASHES her again, but that just pisses Anna off! Anna blocks the shot, ROCKS Mariah, then LASHES her on the back! And LASHES her again! Mariah flounders, Anna kicks things aside to then stomp Mariah down. Anna drags Mariah up to suplex her onto the chairs! Mariah writhes but Anna covers, TWO!! Mariah stays in this, but that just means more pain! Anna stalks Mariah and DIGS the prybar into her ribs! Mariah kicks Anna away, then fires forearms! Anna eggs Mariah on, so Mariah KNEES her down! Cover, TWO! Anna toughs it out as Collision returns to single picture.

Mariah drags Anna up, for a SAIDO! Mariah then positions chairs before she fireman’s carries Anna. MADAY on a chair! Cover, TWO!?! Anna survives and Mariah is furious! Mariah grits her teeth as she drags Anna up and reels her in. Anna fights free, kicks low, then has the Gory Especial! GORY BOMB onto the ladder!! The ladder doesn’t break but Mariah’s face might have! Cover, TWO!! The Vendetta is still watching, and while Taya is very animated, Deonna is very stoic. Anna goes out to look under the ring. Albany gets what they want because here comes a TABLE! Anna brings this up to a TLC as she pushes the table into the ring.

Anna hurries in to set the table up while Mariah crawls and cries in pain. Anna has the table set just right, but she stomps Mariah first. Anna bumps Mariah off the buckles, then hoists her up top. Anna ROCKS Mariah, climbs up after her, and the fans fire up as she aims for the table. Mariah fires body shots first! Mariah bumps Anna off buckles, then SUPSER SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMBS through the table!! Cover, TWO?!?! Anna survives and Mariah cannot believe it! But this is what winning the title with no safety net means for Anna! Mariah goes out, looks under the ring, and she brings out spare railing!?

Mariah pushes the railing into the ring, but she also brings some chairs over. Mariah sets the chairs up before she props the railing up like a ramp. Mariah adds more chairs, but Anna hits a BACKSTABBER first! Both women are down again, but Anna grabs herself some chairs. Anna finishes the project Mariah was working on, and the railing is now a platform! Anna drags Mariah over but Mariah HEADBUTTS first! Mariah then puts Anna on the railing, and looks to go through with her plan all along! The fans fire up as Mariah climbs, but Anna trips her up first! Anna climbs up, and she has Mariah on the very top! SUPERPLEX on the railing!!!

The fans lose their minds as both women are wrecked on the steel bars! Nigel can’t bear to watch the replay! The fans declare, “This is Awesome!” Mariah rises up, but Anna flops out of the ring. Anna finds some BARBED WIRE! Anna looks to relive one of her highlights as she wraps the wire around her arm! Anna stalks Mariah, and has the BARBED WIRE QUEENSLAYER on!!! Mariah suffers and the fans say Anna is sick! Anna doesn’t care, she wants to be champion! Mariah fades, but she uses HAIR SPRAY IN THE EYES!! Mariah is free, and she reels Anna in, STORM ZERO on a chair!! Cover, Mariah wins!!

Winner: Mariah May, by pinfall (still AEW Women’s World Champion)

Taya is upset but Deonna says it’s alright. Anna and Mariah pushed each other to their limits, but also to some dark places. The Glamour is still atop the AEW Women’s Division, and here comes Mina! Best friends get to celebrate Mariah’s victory, and then Mariah KICKS ANna in the side! Mina says no, Mariah, you already did enough! Mariah accepts that, and BREAKING NEWS from Tony Khan: Now that Mariah has retained her title, she and Mina will have their championship champagne celebration for Full Gear! Will no one ever stop Mariah’s reign of glamour?

 

Jon Moxley speaks.

The Maniac is with Marina Shafir in the parking lot as he says, “I’ve underestimated Orange Cassidy. I’ve pushed him in the ring before, but this sport’s about so much more than what goes on between the ropes. I thought when I broke Chuck Taylor’s neck, one of two things would happen: Either he would turn into a shaky puddle of tears, and I’d walk right over him; or he’d be backed into a corner and he’s snap back, bringing the animal out of Orange Cassidy. Neither of those two things happened, and now I see it for the first time. I don’t think he even went to the hospital with Chuck Taylor.

“He acts like he’s so sad, and that young Wheeler’s traveled down a path he doesn’t approve of, but he doesn’t care. He’s full of it. Now I see it for the first time. I can’t believe I didn’t see it before. Orange Cassidy is a snake. Cold-blooded, reptilian, unnerved. The test will be this Wednesday, when you face your beloved former student who you claim to care about. Will you strike with venomous intent? Or will you keep it clean? Cold-blooded opponent, that is a different challenge entirely, this is gonna be harder than I thought. But man, I wish I was cold-blooded. But I’m not. No. I feel everything.

“Not just the weight of the AEW World Championship, but I feel the weight of the last five years. I feel the weight of the dreams and aspirations of every single wrestler who walks through these doors. I feel the weight of everybody’s mistakes and broken promises. I feel the weight of every single AEW fan who buys a ticket and pays for parking, and takes off work, and gives us their hard-earned money, and time, and energy, because AEW is something they believe in! What AEW could be! You don’t like the way I do things? November 23rd, you’re gonna have a chance.

“Lop my head off. Let it hit the dirt and roll at your feet. Reach down and pick up that crown, put it on your head. See if you like how it feels. At Full Gear, I smear Orange Cassidy’s blood on our flag, and I plant it in the ground so hard, it will never get moved. You wanna ride with me? You wanna ride in MY AEW? We ride into battle every single day to grab pro-wrestling by the balls, and you better be ready to die on your shield every single day! And if you’re not, get out. Or you will get taken out.” The Maniac has issued his ultimatum, will Freshly Squeezed heed it?

 

AEW Collision wraps with the November to Remember music video.

Set to November Rain by Guns ‘n’ Roses, we look back even as far as the last time Jon Moxley and Orange Cassidy feuded, which included their battle over the AEW International Championship at Full Gear 2023. There are also highlights to hype up the TNT Championship match of Jack Perry VS Daniel Garcia, and the long-awaited grudge match between Jay White and Hangman Page. Who will truly make this a November to Remember when they stand tall in the November rain?


My Thoughts:

A great Collision, and I forgot that this counts as the go-home Collision with Full Gear next week. The music video recap package to end the show is really well done, and makes a good ending moment, but then it makes other promos a little redundant. Honestly, why not wait to use this as the cold open to Full Gear next Saturday? This would be an awesome PPV opening video. And good closing promo from Moxley, with good spin on Cassidy’s aloof nature. Maybe Cassidy’s cold, or maybe he’s in control of his emotions. I suppose Cassidy VS Yuta on Dynamite will give some of that away.

Great stuff with the TNT Championship story. Garcia VS Johnny was a really good match, even with MXM getting involved. Perry abducting Menard in an attempt to tow him behind the bus was wild, but I like how Garcia turned the tables on Perry. I kinda wish we got a little more of their “joyride” through Albany and New York, but maybe we get more of that on Dynamite. Either way, it feels like Garcia already has the “standing tall” part of the go-home math, meaning he loses at Full Gear. Maybe Perry will cheat his way out of the match so that Garcia can still be strong in defeat.

Really good match from Shelton and Komander but of course Shelton won. Good promo from Hurt Syndicate with The Acclaimed to keep up the recruit tease, and very good match from Acclaimed VS LFI. Good win for The Acclaimed, and you can bet that the Fatal 4 Way will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Caster was even distancing himself in his own way here, with not wanting to scissor finger before the match and other little details. Caster can turn on Bowens and join the Hurt Syndicate to start on a singles championship story with them. Lio Rush likely will, too, given his promo.

Very good promo from Conglomeration to hype up Thanksgiving Eve and the ROH World Championship match of Ishii VS Jericho. Still doesn’t feel like Jericho’s losing, though, as he really only just got the title and there’s still this idea of Jericho being responsible for ROH getting a TV deal. Y’know, the same way he’s kayfabe responsible for Collision happening so that he could be on another show separate from… Whoever he was feuding with back then. Very good promo from Roddy to call out MJF, though he literally says he’ll talk more on Dynamite so what was the point of tonight? Just filling time?

Great match for Hobbs to get back on a winning track in singles action, and the “All Star 8 Man” on Wednesday will be great stuff. I feel like Brian Cage or Lance Archer takes the loss in that match, giving momentum to Ricochet and Ospreay going into each of the Full Gear grudge matches. With that, Ricochet maybe pulls off the International Championship win, but Ospreay probably does not win because of Don Callis Family cheating. As for Hobbs himself, The Continental Classic is coming, maybe he gets in on that and really dominates. Hobbs and Okada would be a lot of fun to see, I kinda hope we get that.

Great opener from Mina VS Harley as Harley continues to build her in-ring skill and impress. I like Mina kinda dodging the question about titles here in AEW, because she doesn’t wanna give away that she wants THE AEW Women’s World Championship. Mariah VS Anna was a great main event, they really busted out some good stuff. Mariah using the hair spray was a very clever way to turn things around and help her win. Mariah and Mina having their celebration on Full Gear, I feel like that’s the moment things go sideways in this friendship.

PLAY BY PLAY

Hikaru Shida VS Leila Grey!

The Shining Samurai continues her comeback, looking to carve a path back to a championship. But the Top Flight Attendant only just called out the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena, last night on ROH TV. Will Leila be flying high towards her Proving Grounds match with The Fallen Goddess? Or will Shida use Leila as just another tune-up?

The bell rings, the two circle, and the fans rally up. The two tie up, Leila wrenches and wristlocks to YANK the arm. Leila keeps on the wristlock but Shida handsprings and wrenches back. Shida hammerlocks, headlocks, but Leila fires body shots. Leila powers up and out, but Shida runs Leila over! The fans fire up, and things keep moving. Shida rolls over Leila’s dropdown, then bypasses Leila. Leila stops the hip toss to fire body shots and knees! Leila goes to run but Shida reels her in. Shida lifts with the waistlock, and she swings Leila around, before the SLAM! The fans fire up with Shida and she goes outside.

Shida brings Leila to the apron, CLUBS her, then lines up a shot. Shida runs in to KNEE LIFT! The fans fire up again and Shida hurries back in. Shida brings Leila up, fireman’s carries, but Leila flails with forearms and elbows. Leila sunset flips, TWO! Leila ROCKS Shida, UPPERCUTS, then kicks low. Leila KICKS high, then kicks a leg out, to run and SHOTGUN! Shida tumbles, Leila covers, TWO! Shida stays in this but Leila stays on her. Leila bumps Shida off buckles, then she runs Shida side to side to bump off more buckles. Leila CHOPS and the fans “WOO~!” Leila smiles and puts some stank on the CHOP!

Leila swings but Shida dodges the third chop, to ROCK Leila! Shida whips, Leila reverses, and Leila SHINING WIZARDS in the corner! Then BULLDOG! Cover, TWO! Shida is tougher than that but Leila stalks her. The fans rally up, Leila brings Shida around, and Leila fires a forearm! Shida fires one in return! Leila fires again, but Shida ROCKS Leila! Leila ROCKS Shida! The fans rally up and Shida feeds off the energy. Shida fires forearm after forearm, but Leila takes a swing! Shida dodges, wrenches, and short arm LARIATS! The fans fire up and Shida is after Leila in a corner. Shida climbs up, and she rains down fists!

The fans fire up and count all the way to TEN! Shida roars then kicks Leila away. Shida MISSILE DROPKICKS! Down goes Leila! Shida hurries to cover, TWO! Leila stays in this but Shida takes aim. KATA- NO, Leila deflects! Roll up, TWO!! Shida is up, blocks a boot, and swings, but into a full nelson! Shida wrenches out, BOOTS Leila’s lariat, then QUESTION MARK KICKS! Shida suplexes for the FALCON ARROW! Cover, Shida wins!

Winner: Hikaru Shida, by pinfall

Leila kicks at 3.1, that’s too little too late! Will Leila at least last ten minutes against Athena next week? Will Shida be the one poised for a title shot after Full Gear?

 

Backstage interview with Harley Cameron.

Renee Paquette is with the crazy Aussie, who keeps pawing at her, and brings up the match Harley’s made for Collision with Mina Shirakawa. Harley asks Renee, does she know what Mina has that Harley doesn’t? No, what is it? NOTHING!! Mina is beautiful, charismatic, and talented. But can she do THIS?! Harley brings out a guitar and starts to play! Harley was a musician, y’know. Oh, wait, there’s a string missing. Never mind, she’s professional! Harley starts adlibbing a Blues-esque song. There once was a little girl. And by “little,” Harley doesn’t mean young child, she means just small in stature.

Anyway, and a five, six, seven, eight! Renee stops Harley there, there’s no time. What?! No! FEEL THE WRATH OF HARLEY CAM- The cameras cut away back to ringside, but will Harley show Mina and the world everything she’s capable of tomorrow night on Collision?

 

Mark Briscoe VS Ariya Daivari w/ Mark Sterling!

While Chris Jericho keeps disrespecting the legacy of Jay Briscoe, it will be Tomohiro Ishii that handles him. Tonight, the Sussex County Chicken is to focus on himself and the Premier Athletes’ son of privilege. “Smart” Mark takes over introductions by saying Ariya Daivari is about to wrestle “literally the dumbest person in AEW.” Mark is so stupid, really. So please, show the world that Bridgeport is smarter than a Briscoe by reading what is right on the Premier Athletes’ brand new merch shirt: Athletes Rule. Daivari says when he says “Athletes,” the fans should say, “Rule!” and NOTHING ELSE! Got it!?

Okay, hands in. Ohhh… “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Briscoe laughs because the only dumb Mark here is Mark Sterling. But will Briscoe prove that what matters in the ring is street smarts? Or can Daivari prove that Premier Athletes don’t suck?

The bell rings and Briscoe circles with Daivari. They tie up as fans rally, and Briscoe pushes Daivari back. Daivari turns things around to put Briscoe in a corner, and lets off as the ref counts. Daivari shouts, “ATHLETES!” but fans again shout “SUCK!!” Briscoe SHOVES Daivari down and the fans fire up. Briscoe and Daivari circle, tie up, and Briscoe headlocks. Daivari powers up and out, but Briscoe runs him over! The fans fire up and things keep moving. Daivari drops down, Briscoe slides under, and then Briscoe REDNECK KUNG-FU UPPERCUTS! And ROLLING ELBOWS! The fans fire up more while sterling protests.

Briscoe whips Daivari, then UPPERCUTS again! The fans fire up as Daivari goes to a corner. Briscoe storms up to bring Daivari around, for a suplex high and hard! Cover, TWO! Daivari is tougher than that so Briscoe shrugs it off. Briscoe fires hands, Daivari staggers around, but Briscoe CHOPS him in a corner! Briscoe then REDNECK CRANE KICKS! The fans fire up and Briscoe brings Daivari up, but Daivari JAWBREAKERS back! Daivari TOSSES Briscoe out, but the ref has Sterling stay back. Daivari goes out to get Briscoe, but Briscoe sends Daivari into railing! The fans fire up while Daivari writhes, and Briscoe stands him up.

Briscoe CHOPS Daivari, high-fives fans, then CHOPS Daivari again. Briscoe then brings Daivari around to SMACK off a chair! The fans fire up as Briscoe makes Daivari take a seat. Briscoe refreshes the count, then runs up to BOOT Daivari down! The fans fire up more, and Briscoe UPPERCUTS Daivari again. Daivari goes to more railing but Briscoe CHOPS him down again. Briscoe tosses a chair into the ring, HEADBUTTS Daivari, then slides into the ring. Briscoe sets up the chair and the fans fire up! Sterling panics as Briscoe builds speed, so Sterling snatches the chair away! The fans boo but Briscoe goes out after Sterling!

Sterling defends his innocence but Daivari CLUBS Briscoe! And hits a NECKBREAKER on the floor! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Well, clearly Sterling doesn’t learn, but Daivari is control as Rampage goes picture in picture.

Daivari drags Briscoe up and into the ring, then grabs the legs, so he can stomp Briscoe’s gut! Briscoe sputters his way to a corner but Daivari digs his boots in! The ref counts, Sterling cheers, but Daivari lets off. Daivari argues with the ref, so Sterling CHOKES Briscoe! The fans boo but Sterling gets away with it. Daivari whips Briscoe hard into a corner! Briscoe sits down, and Daivari stomps him some more! Daivari snapmares Briscoe, KNEES him in the back, then clamps on a neck wrench. The ref reprimands the fishhook in there, but Daivari shifts to a chinlock. Daivari grinds Briscoe down, but Briscoe endures.

Fans rally up and Briscoe fights to his feet. Rampage returns to single picture as Briscoe fires body shots! Briscoe fires forearms but Daivari knees low! Daivari CLAWS Briscoe’s face, puts him in a corner, then hoists him up top. The fans rally for “DEM BOYS! DEM BOYS!” but Daivari CHOPS Briscoe. Daivari climbs up, brings Briscoe up, but Briscoe fires body shots! Briscoe DECKS Daivari, the fans fire up, but Sterling springs into action! The ref reprimands, Sterling argues with him, and Daivari runs up! Briscoe leaps over Daivari, but Daivari dodges the boot! SLEEPER! The fans boo but Briscoe RAMS Daivari into a corner!

Daivari holds on but Briscoe RAMS him in again and again! Briscoe is finally free, but Daivari then hammerlocks! LION’S LARIAT! And then a wrench, spin, LION’S DDT! Cover, TWO!! Briscoe survives Daivari’s double down and the fans fire up! Daivari throws hands but Briscoe feeds off it! The fans fire up as Briscoe mans up! Daivari headlocks, Briscoe powers out, but Daivari RAMS Briscoe! Briscoe roars! Daivari runs and RAMS Briscoe again! And again! Then Daivari fires hands! But Briscoe blocks to ROCK Daivari! And ROCK him again! And again! REDNECK PALM STRIKES! Briscoe puts Daivari in a corner!

Briscoe rains down fists and the fans count to TEN! Briscoe hops down, the fans fire up, and Briscoe CLOBBERS Daivari! And CLOBBERS him again! Briscoe whips, Daivari reverses, but Briscoe FLYING FOREARMS! The fans fire up with Briscoe and he runs at the corner. LARIAT, and then FISHERMAN BUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Daivari survives but Briscoe calls his shot! Briscoe drags Daivari up, reels him in, but Daivari fights the underhooks! Daivari wrenches, dodges a lariat, and SUPERKICKS! Briscoe wobbles, but he eggs Daivari on! Daivari runs up, into a ROLLING DEATH VALLEY! Daivari is down and Briscoe climbs up!

Sterling distracts Briscoe, and Daivari has time to hit the ropes! That trips Briscoe up! Briscoe tumbles to the m at, and Daivari hauls Briscoe up. Wait, Daivari underhooks the arms?! That’s blasphemy! But Briscoe powers up and out with a backdrop! And now Briscoe brings Daivari in, only for Sterling to get on the apron! The ref reprimands, Briscoe warns Sterling, but it’s ROCKY ROMERO that YANKS Sterling down! Daivari whips Briscoe, Briscoe reverses to TOSS Daivari! Rocky gets Briscoe the chair! Briscoe sets it up, and he takes FLIGHT! Down goes Daivari & Sterling! Briscoe puts Daivari in, climbs up, FROGGY-BOW!! Cover, Briscoe wins!

Winner: Mark Briscoe, by pinfall

The Conglomeration comes through for each other again, and that helps Briscoe win! But Azucar has his own match tonight, will he be feeling even sweeter after taking on Komander?

 

BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!

With the confrontations we’ve seen from them all, we see Will Ospreay join forces with Will Hobbs, Mark Davis & Ricochet against Konosuke Takeshita, Kyle Fletcher, Brian Cage & Lance Archer! It’s the full Don Callis Family against the Aerial Assassin, the Powerhouse, Dunkzilla and The One & Only in an All Star 8 Man Tag! Which side will have all the momentum going into Full Gear?

 

Rocky Romero VS Komander w/ Alex Abrahantes!

Rampage returns and the bell rings. The fans rally as Azucar and Commander of the Skies circle, but Montel Vontavious Porter is watching backstage…? Who business could MVP and The Hurt Syndicate have here? Rocky and Komander tie up, Komander wrenches and wristlocks. Rocky rolls then DROPKICKS! Rocky gives some Latino Heat, then waits on Komander. The two reset, circle, and tie up again. Rocky waistlocks, SLAMS, then flips Komander, maybe a little too much. Rocky flips Komander over again but Komander kips up to arm-drag! Komander gives some Latino Heat of his own, and Rocky can’t help but smile.

The fans rally as Komander and Rocky feel things out. They knuckle lock, go shoulder to shoulder, and the fans cheer the Test of Strength. Rocky powers Komander back, then MONKEY FLIPS! Rocky rolls back but Komander blocks the mount to then go up and MONKEY FLIP back! It’s a double cover, TWO as both men bridge! The fans cheer this exchange, and the two roll to their feet. Komander kicks one knuckle lock apart to then go up and ARABIAN PRESS ARM-DRAG! Rocky is back up fast, and he hurdles, drops under, then hurdles again. Komander leaps over, keeps moving, and he springboards to FLYING ARM-DRAG!

The fans fire up while Rocky bails out. Komander builds speed to DIVE! Down goes Rocky and the fans fire up again! Komander feeds off the energy to put Rocky in the ring. Komander goes up a corner, takes aim, but Rocky moves. Komander rolls through, comes back, and dodges to then handspring and- FACEBUSTER from Rocky! Cover, TWO! Rocky stays on Komander with a scoop and BACKBREAKER! Komander writhes, Rocky covers, TWO! Rocky drags Komander up again, whips him to a corner, and Komander hits buckles hard! Rocky snap suplexes Komander, drops a knee on him, then paces.

The fans rally but Rocky drops another knee. Rocky has Komander on the ropes literally, then brings him up to RAM him into a corner. Rocky reels Komander in, hoists Komander up top, and Rocky climbs up. Rocky ROCKS Komander and Komander wobbles! The two brawl, and Rocky ROCKS Komander again! SUPERPLEX! Both men are down and the fans fire up! Rocky crawls after Komander while Rampage goes picture in picture.

Rocky manages the cover, TWO! Rocky grits his teeth, growing frustrated, but he stalks Komander to more ropes. Rocky drags Komander up, CHOPS him, then stalks him to a corner. Komander kicks back but Rocky CHOPS Komander again. Komander flounders along ropes, but Rocky has him again. Komander turns things around to CHOP back! The fans and Abrahantes fires up as Komander fires off CHOPS and KICKS! The ref counts, Komander lets off, but Rocky sucker punches him! Rocky has Komander in the corner now, hoists him up again, but then traps him on the top rope by lacing the legs!

Komander flails while Rocky gets space. Rocky runs up to TOP SHELF KNEE! Komander falls in a heap, but Rocky wants us to watch. Sliding pose! Rocky goes back for Komander but Komander kicks at him. Rocky brings Komander up to CLUB him down. Rocky then stalks Komander, CLUBS him again, and stalks him to ropes. Rocky brings Komander into a waistlock, but shoves him to ropes to ROCK him in the back! Komander drops to his knees, but Rocky stands him up. Rocky shoves and ROCKS Komander again! Cover, TWO! Komander stays tough but Rampage goes to break.

Rampage returns and the fans fire up for Komander as he goes up, up, salutes, and ARIHARA MOONSAULTS Rocky down! The fans fire up and MVP is impressed. Komander puts Rocky in, the fans rally behind “KO-MAN-DER!” But Rocky intercepts the flight for a fireman’s carry! Komander slips free, suplexes, but Rocky slips free. Rocky shoves but Komander DROPKICKS! The fans fire up and Komander runs corner to corner to go  up and up, MOONSAULT, into BOOTS! Komander staggers, into SLICED BREAD! Cover, TWO! Rocky is frustrated but he hurries to bring Komander back up. Rocky whips, but Komander tiger feints and rolls!

Komander goes up and has Rocky with a dragon sleeper! Inverted suplex, for a POWERSLAM into the corner!! The fans fire up as Komander sets Rocky in the drop zone. Komander climbs, tightrope walks, CIELITO LINDO!! Cover, Komander wins!

Winner: Komander, by pinfall

MVP nods, maybe he saw things not even he expected out of this match. Will Komander prove he’s not just worthy of MVP’s attention but of AEW’s attention? And with it, perhaps a title opportunity?

 

Backstage interview with Anna Jay.

Lexy Nair is with The Queenslayer and notes her AEW Women’s World Championship match set for Collision tomorrow night. It is No Disqualifications, and if Anna wins, she is the NEW champion. But if she loses… Anna will never challenge Mariah May for the title again. Anna says it is worth that risk. It is worth seeing Mariah’s eyes bulging out of her head until she passes out. With no rules, Anna is capable of anything. But in steps Taya Valkyrie, applauding and saying yes, Anna is capable of anything. But so is Mariah. And Mina Shirakawa could be anywhere. Maybe Anna wants some extra insurance? And by the way, The Vendetta does accept cash.

Anna says she can handle her business, so Taya can mind her own. Taya tells Anna okay, okay. But Deonna Purrazzo sends her regards. Stay safe out there. Anna says no, she won’t. Will Anna finally be The Star of the Show when she tears down Mariah? Or will The Virtuosa & La Wera Loca have something to say about that?

 

Rush & The Beast Mortos w/ Dralistico VS Alex Price & Richard Holliday!

Just 24 hours ahead of their Collision with The Acclaimed, La Faccion Ingobernable’s two bulls are looking to stampede! Will they be more than ready for the Full Gear Contenders Series?

The teams sort out and Mortos starts against Price, and just CLBOBERS him at the bell! Mortos keeps moving, Price drops then jumps, but into a SNAP POWERSLAM! The fans fire up and Mortos SMACKS Price! Mortos whips Price, Price ducks ‘n’ dodges, then goes up and over! Price DROPKICKS, DROPKICKS, and fires up! But then Mortos POP-UP SAMOAN DROPS him! Tag to Rush, and El Toro Blanco looms over Price. Rush stands Price up to CHOP him down! Rush eggs Holliday on, then SPITS at him! The fans boo but Price tags Holliday. Holliday steps to Rush, but Rush shoves him! Holliday UPPERCUTS!

The fans fire up but Rush CHOPS! Rush pie faces Holliday but Holliday fires up! Only for Rush to whip him into a corner and SPLASH! Snapmare and basement DROPKICK! Holliday bails out but Rush pursues. Rush CHOPS, then throws Holliday into railing. Rush dribbles Holliday off the railing, rains down fists, but the ref counts. Rush says leave him alone, but the ref warns him. Rush stops, then he puts Holliday in the ring. Rush snarls and storms back into the ring. Mortos CHOKES Holliday, the ref reprimands, but this lets Dralistico throw Price into steel steps! Rush whips Holliday corner to corner hard!

Rush DECKS Holliday with a forearm, stomps away on him, and goes corner to corner! “If you mess with the bull…!” BULL’S HORNS! Cover, LFI wins!

Winners: Rush & The Beast Mortos, by pinfall

This probably could’ve been over soon, but LFI likes to play with their food. But will they be much more to the point against Max Caster & Anthony Bowens?

 

Backstage interview with MVP.

Lexy is with Montel Vontavious Porter and brings up how he’s been watching matches here and there. Is he scouting talent? Absolutely! And as he’s been getting the lay of the land here in AEW, MVP sees so many young and gifted athletes with so much untapped potential. Some of them need motivation. Some need perhaps better management. And some just need to be hurt, beaten down again and again, to their knees. Because only when you’ve broken a man down to his knees can you teach him to stand and put him on the path to success. MVP says Swerve Strickland is a perfect example. So much to learn and yet he just won’t listen.

That is arrogance. It is that arrogance that the fans love, but it is also Swerve’s greatest weakness. Swerve thinks that one man can beat three. That is arrogance. Swerve calls himself the most dangerous man in AEW. With Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin around, that is arrogance. And arrogance, like pride, goeth before the fall. So MVP is paying attention to everything. For example, tonight, where MVP will be watching Ricochet in the main event. Oh, and that young luchador, Komander, what an impressive match. MVP likes that. And then tomorrow night on Collision, Shelton will find out exactly what Komander is made of, and what lessons he needs to learn.

The business plan has been set out, but will The Hurt Syndicate find the diamonds in the rough they are looking for? Or is it all fool’s gold compared to what they already have?

 

BREAKING NEWS for Collision!

On top of Shelton Benjamin VS Komander, and on top of the AEW Women’s World Championship No Disqualification match, Will Hobbs gets back into singles action as he takes on Bulk Bronson! With that All Star 8 Man Tag coming up, will going big be just the thing to power up the Powerhouse? Plus, relive the best of the last two weeks as the special AEW “November to Remember” music video debuts, set to Guns ‘n’ Roses’ hit song, November Rain!

 

Ricochet VS Dante Martin!

MVP just told the world he is watching this match, but surely so is The Don Callis Family. Will The One & Only show them something #OuttaThisWorld? Or will Angel Dorado remind us why he was the hottest high flyer not too long ago?

The bell rings and the fans rally up. Ricochet and Dante shake hands to show there is respect here. They circle, tie up, and Ricochet headlocks for a takeover. Dante headscissors but Ricochet moves around, rolls Dante, then floats to a headlock. Dante fights back up, but Ricochet wrenches to wristlock. Dante goes for ropes but Ricochet keeps him back. Ricochet continues to keep Dante from the ropes, so Dante just front flips on his own! Dante arm-drags free and the fans fire up! Dante and Ricochet hurry to their feet, but Dante knees low! Dante whips but Ricochet blocks and reels Dante in for a back suplex, only for Dante to land on his feet!

Dante bobs ‘n’ weaves, shoves Ricochet, but Ricochet avoids the dropkick! Jackknife bridge, TWO as Dante bridges up! Dante spins Ricochet, but Ricochet turns that to a backslide! TWO, and Ricochet whips. Dante leaps for a sunset flip! Ricochet stays up, tucks Dante for a sunset flip of his own, TWO! Dante swings, Ricochet dodges and rolls back to RANA, but both men get up! Ricochet DROPKICKS Dante down and the fans fire up! We get a shot of MVP once again liking what he sees. Dante goes to a corner, Ricochet runs up, but Dante slips out! Ricochet hits buckles, then Dante goes up, around, and ROCKS Ricochet!

Dante aims but Ricochet runs up. Dante jumps over as Ricochet slides out, and then Dante ASAI MOONSAULTS! Ricochet avoids it, Dante lands on his feet, and now Ricochet goes up a corner to MOONSAULT! Dante dodges and he JUMP KNEES! Ricochet sputters as he leans against the apron, and Dante slides in. Dante keeps moving, but Ricochet springboards! Dante ducks under, runs at Ricochet, but Ricochet goes up and over! Dante puts Ricochet on the apron but Ricochet ENZIGIRIS! Ricochet springboards again, FLYING LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Dante survives and the fans fire up as Rampage goes picture in picture.

Dante rolls to the apron but Ricochet goes right after him. Ricochet kicks Dante to the floor, then hops down to fetch him. Ricochet CHOPS Dante, ROCKS him, and Dante staggers around the way. Ricochet fires up the fans, but Dante DAREDEVIL DROPKICKS Ricochet through the corner! Now it’s Dante firing up the fans as he goes after Ricochet. Dante brings Ricochet around to CHOP against the desk! Dante puts Ricochet in the ring, fires back up, and he hurries in, only for Ricochet to CLOBBER him. Ricochet drops another elbow, and another! Dante flounders but Ricochet drags him up. Ricochet CHOPS Dante to a corner.

Ricochet UPPERCUTS Dante, then whips corner to corner. Dante hits buckles so hard, that he tumbles up and over, then to the floor! Ricochet lets the ring count climb a bit, and Dante stirs at 4 of 10. Dante rises, Ricochet eggs him on a bit, but Dante’s still down at 7 of 10. Dante stands at 8 and rolls in, only for Ricochet to drop knees! Ricochet rains down some fists, but the ref reprimands about closes fists. Ricochet swears he was using palm strikes. Ricochet drags Dante up, snapmares, and KICKS him in the back! Ricochet clamps on with a chinlock, and even traps an arm. Ricochet now shifts into a grounded cobra twist!

Dante endures, even as Ricochet throws punches into the ribs. Dante fights, rises up, and fires body shots! Ricochet CHOPS in return! Ricochet then scoops and SLAMS Dante, and Rampage returns to single picture as he climbs a corner. The fans fire up as Ricochet reaches the top, but Dante stands! Ricochet jumps over Dante, but Dante BOOTS him! Dante fires a flurry of forearms but Ricochet shoves him back. Ricochet runs up, Dante again slips to the outside, and Dante ROCKS Ricochet again. Dante springboards up and around for a CARTWHEEL CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO!! Ricochet survives, he runs at Dante, but Dante goes up and over!

Ricochet tumbles out as Dante then builds speed, and Dante DIVES! Direct hit at the ramp but Dante hurries to put Ricochet in. Springboard and MAMBA SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Ricochet survives and the fans rally up again. Dante waits on Ricochet to rise up, then he half nelsons. Lift and- NO, Ricochet slips free to dragon sleeper! VERTI- NO, Dante slips free! Ricochet arm-drags Dante away, then catches him, Wrench and NORTHERN LIGHTS! Roll through, deadlift, BRAINBUSTER! Ricochet roars while fans are torn, RUNNING SHOOTING STAR! Cover, TWO!! Dante survives and Ricochet is surprised!

MVP is himself a bit frustrated, but Ricochet fireman’s carries. Dante fires elbows, slips free, and goes to run, but Ricochet SUPERKICKS! Ricochet runs up, into an ELBOW! Dante uses the same up and over, only to get caught! BLUE THUNDER BOMB! Cover, TWO!! Dante survives and Ricochet snarls. The fans fire up and Ricochet brings Dante up. Ricochet has the dragon sleeper, but Dante fires knees! Dante drops, victory rolls, TWO!! Ricochet catches Dante for a deadlift SAIDO!! The fans fire up as Ricochet takes aim! BANG and SPIRIT GUN!! Cover, Ricochet wins!

Winner: Ricochet, by pinfall

MVP nods, very impressed by The One & Only Ricochet. Ricochet’s arsenal certainly continues to grow, but he still shows respect to Dante. Will this momentum help Ricochet’s team take down The Don Callis Family this Wednesday Night Dynamite?


My Thoughts:

A very good Rampage, even with it being a five match night. Granted, it was clear Shida was going to win her match and LFI were going to win theirs. Well, so was Briscoe, but it was good stuff with Daivari getting a good showing and Rocky cancelling out Sterling so Briscoe would win. Great match from Rocky and Komander, too, and great win for Komander. Though, as MVP plugged in his promo, Komander is certainly losing to Shelton Benjamin, but I do appreciate the idea that anyone just floating around in the midcard could end up Hurt Syndicate material.

Ricochet VS Dante was a great main event, Ricochet of course won, but between being on Team Ospreay for Dynamite and Hurt Syndicate not leaving him alone, there are all kinds of possibilities for Ricochet. And great promos to hype up the two women’s matches we’re getting on Collision. That’s right, we’re getting two women’s matches! Harley continues to be hilarious, and I like this gag that she never has enough time to get her full madness out. Very good promo from Anna with Taya making a surprise appearance. Given Mariah is more than likely to win tomorrow night, Anna needs something outside of titles so I suppose a feud with The Vendetta could be something. Maybe it’s also a way to bring Tay Conti/Tay Melo back into story since it’d be a tag team feud?

My Score: 8.7/10
