PLAY BY PLAY

It’s the All In London Zero Hour!

Renee Paquette, Paul “The Big Show” Wight, Kip Sabian and Anthony Ogogo are here to discuss, analyze and predict all the action at this historic event. And to open, Renee quotes the late, great Windham Rotunda, aka Bray Wyatt, “Wrestling is not a love story. It’s a fairytale for masochists, a comedy for people who criticize the punchlines, a fantasy that most people can’t understand, and a spectacle no one can deny.” Will we see all that and more realized here in one night?

 

“Powerhouse” Hobbs is in the ring.

There’s also a lot of security in the ring, too. Hobbs gets a mic and says, “What I need right now is for people to sit they asses in they seats, and pay attention to me.” Fans boo but Hobbs says, “This is the biggest show in pro-wrestling history, All In.” Fans cheer that! But what Hobbs has is a contract for next week, All Out, that Miro has not signed. Last time we saw Miro, that b*tch was laid out in the middle of this ring. So what Hobbs is gonna do, he’ll take his ass back to America, cuz 80 thousand “chavs” don’t deserve him. But wait! The horn blows, and here comes The Redeemer! Fans fire up as Miro makes his way to the ring!

Fans chant for “MIRO! MIRO!” but Hobbs tells him to sign the damn contract. Miro takes the contract and pen in hand, looks it over, and signs his part. Then he pushes the table aside! Miro and Hobbs get face to face, security is watching closely, and Hobbs says it’s on. Fans chant “F HIM UP, MIRO, F HIM UP!” but Hobbs says nope, he has to wait. Hobbs steps out, but rushes back in! Miro dodges and fires off hands! Miro clotheslines Hobbs out of the ring, and security swarms him! Miro fights them off, throws some aside, Hobbs gets back up but Miro DECKS him! And then Miro CLOBBERS guard after guard!

Fans are fired up, as now Hobbs DECKS guards! Miro grabs the mic to tell Hobbs that contracts are just words! But here is the word of The Redeemer! Next week, redemption is coming for Hobbs, in the form of a jacked Bulgarian who is gonna break your back and make you humble! Shoutout to the late, great Sheiky Baby, will Miro make him proud when he finishes the Book of Hobbs?

 

Tony Schiavone is in the ring.

“On behalf of All Elite Wrestling, it is wonderful being in London! And we wanna take this time to thank each and every one of you for being here and joining us tonight for-” Wait! Team Triple J is making their way out here? What business does Sonjay Dutt, Satnam Singh, Jay Lethal and Mr. & Mrs. Jarrett have when they’re not on the card? The group goes right to the ring, they take Schiavone’s mic and fans boo. Karen hands the mic to Jeff and he tells “Slapnut” Schiavone to get outta the ring! Schiavone does as told and Jeff says AEW wants to give these “dafties” and “wankers” credit for paving the way for the biggest wrestling event in history?

No no no! Everyone knows that the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA paved the way! The fans boo but Jarrett says that beyond a shadow of a doubt, AMERICAN wrestling fans are better than UK fans! And it goes without saying that American wrestlers paved the way for this! Sure wasn’t Big Daddy, Haystacks, or one single solitary wrestler from that “local yokel” show of theirs, World of Sport! The UK knows it was AMERICAN promotions! The Crocketts, the Von Ericks, the Grahams! Fans tell Double J to STFU but Karen shouts to have respect! And Jeff of course says the JARRETTS paved the way-

Wait, Paul Wight has stormed down to the entrance! And he’s bringing Ogogo with him! But not just them, they’re bringing out GRADO! Fans fire up as these three storm up to the ring now and get face to face with Triple J! Satnam steps to Wight and fans fire up more! Then Wight DECKS Satnam!! The brawl is on as Grado throws hands with Jeff! Ogogo ROCKS Sonjay! Grado JABS, JABS then DECKS Jeff! Lethal CLUBS Wight, but that did nothing! Wight grabs Lethal for the GIANT CHOKE SLAM! Jeff is still standing, but Grado feeds him to Wight! Who feeds him to Ogogo’s RIGHT HAND! Wight HEADBUTTS Jeff, and Grado gives Jeff a SMASH HIT!

Fans fire up as the UK’s own, and an American giant, shut the giant mouths of Triple J! Will we see this fight go back across the pond?

 

Zero Hour – ROH World Tag Team Championships: Aussie Open VS MJF & Adam Cole!

The action officially gets going with some gold! But Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis are rather offended that the AEW World Champion and his brochacho challenger think they can just take these titles when they haven’t been teaming for even a fraction of the time this team has. But will MJF & Cole still prove they’re #BetterThanYouBaybay? Or will this match only strain the relationship further?

Fletcher jumps, but onto MJF’s knees! MJF crawls, but Davis rushes in to drag him back! Fans boo as Davis runs, but MJF drop toeholds Davis into Fletcher’s Aussie Arrow! Fans fire up as MJF crawls, but Davis grabs a foot. Davis drags MJF back again, but MJF dodges the lariat, hot tag to Cole! Cole dodges Davis to BOOT him! Cole ELBOWS Fletcher, BOOTS him, then CLOBBERS him! Cole rallies, BOOTS, and fans fire up again!

Cole is feeling it as he aims, runs, but Fletcher ducks the Shining Wizard! But Cole BOOTS Fletcher’s lariat to then hit a BACKSTABBER! Cover, TWO!

MJF gets on the corner to fire the fans up, and they shout “DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE!” Cole tags MJF in, they get Fletcher up to double whip, but Davis saves Fletcher.

But speaking of that other belt, the ref hands the AEW World Championship belt to Cole, and he takes another longing look at it before he hands it over to MJF. MJF and Cole are ready to battle as brohemians in the main event, will tonight end with a different double champion?

 

Mercedes Mone is in the crowd!

Fans cheer for the CEO, the former Women’s World Champion in both the WWE and NJPW, is she going to be All Elite in the near future?

 

Zero Hour – FTW Championship FTW Rules: Jack Perry VS Hook!

Before he could successfully CRUSH this belt, “Hollywood” Jack Perry was stopped by the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil!

Chris Jericho w/ Sammy Guevara VS Will Ospreay w/ Don Callis!

The Ocho felt abandoned by his own appreciation society and was willing to turn to a friend in Don Callis. Too bad Callis was even more of a low down, dirty slimeball than Jericho remembered. But in the end, Callis has brought about the WrestleKingdom dream match that was denied during Pandemic Era. Will the Aerial Assassin prove HE is the Greatest Of All Time? Or will the best possible version of Ospreay still fall short of the best possible version of Jericho?

Fans do applaud their respect to the Ocho, but Jericho doesn’t wanna hear it? He takes a moment, Sammy asks what’s the matter. Jericho leaves, unable to appreciate the one friend on his side. Is Jericho’s own future that uncertain?

AEW World Trios Championships Open House Rules: The House of Black VS “Badass” Billy Gunn & The Acclaimed!

AEW World Championship: MJF VS Adam Cole!

What started with a 30-minute time limit draw in a Contender Eliminator Match turned into an unlikely pairing in the AEW World Tag Team Championship Contenders Blind Eliminator Tournament, and that turned into an unlikely and yet incredibly powerful friendship that has taken AEW by storm! They didn’t win the AEW World Tag Team titles, but they’ve stuck together and are now the NEW ROH World Tag Team Champions! But there are still many questions about this bromance of alpha males. Numero uno is, will these brochachos still be friends after fighting over the top title? Or will the temptation of becoming legendary be too much for either man to resist?

Cole’s entrance is fairly standard, but for MJF, the lights go out. Fire puffs from the stage, and the Devil of AEW arrives on his throne, his worshippers bowing down. MJF rises, takes off the mask, and has a huge smirk on his face. MJF brings both belts as he joins Cole in the ring. The introductions are made, the Triple B is raised, and only one man leaves Wembley Stadium a dual champion!

The bell rings, and fans are thunderous already! MJF and Cole soak in the moment here, and MJF grins that there are fans chanting for him. Cole and MJF circle, approach, and they seem to assure each other, this is about proving who is the best, friendships aside. So they both go out, they get something from under the ring, and they put on the matching Better Than You Baybay shirts! Fans cheer this literal sign of their friendship! The two circle, tie up, and MJF headlocks. Cole powers out, MJF runs him over, and things keep moving. MJF rolls over, drops down, and hurdles, but then Cole leaps over!

Cole headlocks for a takeover, MJF headscissors, Cole kips out! Roles reverse as MJF headlocks for the takeover, Cole headscissors and MJF kips free! Fans cheer the standoff after this opening exchange! MJF and Cole reset, fans chant “Let’s Go, Friendship!” MJF offers a handshake, Cole accepts it, and fans cheer again!

MJF drops down, hurdles again, but holds up when Cole shows superkick! Cole smirks and MJF smirks back. “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY!”

MJF says okay, and he offers another handshake. “SPORTS-MAN-SHIP! SPORTS-MAN-SHIP!” Fans echo the chant, Cole takes it, then MJF pokes Cole in the eyes! MJF said before he was still a scumbag, but he’s OUR scumbag! And fans chant that! “He’s Our Scumbag!” MJF offers a handshake as apology, Cole takes it, and then he ROCKS MJF with a right!

But then Cole YANKS MJF into buckles! Cole stomps a mudhole into MJF then digs his boots in! The ref counts, Cole lets off at 4, and Cole clamps on a chinlock. Fans rally, MJF fights up, and MJF throws body shots. MJF runs but Cole throws him down by his hair! The ref reprimands but Cole soaks up the cheers and jeers. Cole storms up on MJF and clamps on a facelock to grind MJF down. MJF endures, fights up, and MJF has the wrists!

MJF powers up, stomps Cole’s foot, and swings, but Cole dodges to throw him by hair again! The ref reprimands, fans boo, but Cole soaks up the heat. But MJF kips up! And he throws Cole down by his hair now! The ref reprimands MJF now and then Cole bails out! MJF tried it earlier tonight, he goes for it now! Or not. MJF isn’t confident in going airborne. So Cole gets in to SUPERKICK! Cover, TWO!! Cole is upset with the ref, but Cole slaps MJF around! Cole says he had MJF beat way back when! They may be friends now, but Cole is still better! Cole then drags MJF up, rips the shirt off and throws it away!

Fans boo and MJF can’t believe it. MJF is mad now, but Cole throws forearms! MJF just gets angrier, and fans chant “YOU EFFED UP!” at Cole. MJF eggs Cole on, so Cole rakes the eyes! Fans boo more, the ref reprimands, and Cole tunes up the band! Fans boo more, Cole ain’t no HBK! But MJF blocks the kick! And LARIATS Cole down! And ELBOWS him! And scoops to SLAM! And then dribbles Cole off the buckles! Fans count all the way to TEN, then MJF climbs up to rain down fists! MJF goes to nine, winds up, and shrugs, to BITE Cole!! Now we’re getting dirty!

Cole stands over MJF, drags him up again, and brings him to the top of the steps! Fans rally for MJF but Cole suplexes! To SLAM MJF on the steps!! MJF might’ve even hit the edge! The ref reprimands Cole and even Cole seems shocked by what he just did to MJF. Cole goes into the ring as told by the ref, and the ref has him stay way back. The ring count starts, Cole is concerned as MJF is still down at 5 of 10. MJF isn’t even really stirring yet!

The fans rally as hard as they can for MJF, we’re at 7 of 10! Cole paces, we’re at 9! But MJF springs to life to get in at 9.9999!!! Cole is torn again, but mostly relieved MJF keeps this match alive. Cole drags MJF over to a drop zone, then hops up a corner. MJF rises, Cole says night night, Max. But MJF FLOPS out of the ring! Cole sighs, goes out after MJF, and drags MJF up, but MJF TRIPS Cole! Cole hits off the apron, and MJF pulls the hood off the commentary table! Taz, Excalibur & Nigel move aside as MJF clears it all off. MJF drags Cole over, gets up on the desk, and he talks to himself, “You have to do this. It’s for the title, Max, you have to do it.”

MJF gut wrenches Cole! Fans freak out and Cole flails, but MJF sets him down! MJF couldn’t hurt his friend back like Cole did him! MJF is almost in tears as he paces around but Nigel says MJF is foolish for not doing this! Taz agrees! But then Cole SMACKS MJF off the desk! Now Cole hauls MJF up, scoops him, and TOMBSTONE to the desk!!! The desk doesn’t give way, because it has a steel support in it! Way to tell us that now! Cole clutches his knee, MJF isn’t stirring! Fans tell Cole off, but he drags MJF up and into the ring! Cover, TWO?!?!?! MJF survives and no one can believe it, least of all Cole!

Cole seethes, he drags MJF up but the bad leg gives up! So Cole just throws a forearm on MJF! MJF throws one back! They brawl on their knees and the fans are strongly behind MJF now!

MJF comes back with a ROLLING ELBOW! Cole comes back with a DESTROYER! MJF SUPERKICKS before he falls over!!! Both men are down again and the fans are thunderous for “A E DUB! A E DUB!”

A standing count starts against, Cole stirs at 2 of 10 and “This is Awesome!” MJF stirs but Cole goes to ropes. MJF sits up on the opposite end, but neither has stood up. We’re at 6 of 10, Cole and MJF drag themselves up and they stand at 7! Fans fire up again and the two shout at each other, “DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE!” They both run, they both dodge, and then yes, DOUBLE CLOTHESLINES connect! Both men are down, but it’s a DOUBLE COVER?!? DOUBLE THREE?!?!? A DRAW?!?!

Double Pinfall Draw (MJF retains the title)

Fans boo but what can anyone do? These two both pinned each other! Justin Roberts isn’t even sure how to announce it but he explains, this was a double pinfall. Fans call BS and Cole gets pissed! Cole grabs as mic to shout, “No freakin’ way! No way! MAX! Five! More! Minutes!” The same request that started this whole saga, and the fans want to see it! MJF denied Cole the first time, when he was an enemy. But what will he say now that they’re friends? MJF takes the mic to say, “No.” Wait, he said NO!? But then MJF says, “Five minutes isn’t enough, Adam.” Fans cheer as MJF says they go until there’s a definitive winner in EFFIN’ WEMBLEY!!

Fans are electric, the bell rings again, and then Cole rolls MJF up!! Cover, with tights! But MJF uses that to tip things in his favor! TWO and now Cole has the O’Conner back! TWO and Cole SUPER- NO, MJF blocks the kick, but Cole pokes eyes! Cole runs, MJF drops down, grazing blow and then Cole knocks the ref over!! Fans can’t believe it but all three men are down! MJF sits up, and he has a Cheshire Cat grin! MJF hurries outside, he grabs a chair, and he hurries back in! MJF is still a scumbag, remember? But he throws it to Cole? But Cole anticipates his Latino Heat move and throws it right back! This confuses the MJF.

MJF throws the chair back, Cole again throws it back, and we have hot potato with a chair. They go faster and faster and faster! Then MJF steps to Cole, and Cole drops! MJF panics, he knows how this looks! MJF shrugs, and puts the chair around his head, to then lie down! Cole realizes how this looks! Fans fire up and the ref is stirring!

We’re at 5 of 10, but Cole takes aim! PANAMA SUNRISE to the floor!!! MJF flops back again and Cole hurries to drag him up. Cole has to deal with dead weight, though! Cole still gets MJF in at 8 of 10, covers, TWO!!!!

Cole is furious again! He can’t understand how MJF survives! Cole aims from a corner as the standing count climbs. The ref checks MJF, he seems in it enough to continue, so Cole drags him back to a drop zone. Cole hops up, aims, but MJF yanks the ref in the way! PANAMA SUNRISE to the ref!!! Cole is stunned again!! And then MJF brings out the Dynamite Diamond Ring! MJF may love Triple B but the precious returns! Cole is furious with the ref, and MJF aims with the ring! But then MJF is conflicted again. MJF wanted to do this on Collision a month ago, but just like then, he decides not to!

Wait! RODDY STRONG!? Cole’s other friend is here, and he LOW BLOWS MJF!! Even COLE missed that!! Strong shouts for Cole to finish this but Cole asks what Strong is doing here! But then Cole doesn’t care anymore when he sees MJF is vulnerable! Cole hurries up the corner, takes aim again, PANAMA SUNRISE!!!! But the ref is still down! Cole brings down the kneepad, for THE BOOM!!!! Cover, Cole shouts for the ref, but the ref is out! Fans count, Cole would be champ three times over at least! The ref revives, crawls over, counts the cover, but so slowly!! REALLY LONG TWO!!! And no one can believe it!!!

Cole is beside himself! Almost ready to laugh, it is so unbelievable! But Roddy throws Triple B to Cole and tells him to DO IT! Strong is Cole’s best friend, so just do it! Fans boo, but Cole is tempted. Cole takes off the Better Than You Baybay shirt, picks up the belt, and he takes aim! MJF sits up, he’s defenseless, but now Cole is conflicted! He THROWS the belt away! Fans love Cole for it, and Strong storms off in anger! Cole brings MJF up, but MJF cradles!! The ref counts, MJF WINS!!!

Winner: MJF, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)

The fans cheer, and Cole is stunned. He did the right thing, both in not using the belt and sticking by his friendship with MJF, and he still lost. MJF isn’t sure what happened other than he won, but he can see Cole is emotional after this. MJF crawls over to his friend, and just as Cole encouraged MJF after their loss to FTR, MJF encourages Cole. “It could’ve gone either way. It could’ve gone either way! These people still love you!” MJF gets the fans to cheer and MJF says he just got lucky. Fans chant for “Both These Guys! Both These Guys!” MJF says hold on, watch! MJF brings in the ROH World Tag Team Championships! But Cole throws them away!?

MJF is confused again. Oh, okay. Cole never give a damn about MJF, he just cared about Triple B! Cole’s a fake ass POS! ADMIT IT! Was this all for this belt? Fine, TAKE IT! MJF chucks Triple B at Cole! MJF even says that as a matter of fact, just get it over with! MJF wants Cole to hit him after all. Turnabout from that Collision a month ago, but then Roddy returns to add on! MJF wants it, Roddy wants it, they both think Cole wants it deep down, so just do it! The fans are the only ones saying no, who does Cole listen to? Cole AGAIN throws the belt down! Roddy and MJF are both shocked, and the fans cheer!

Roddy shouts “ADAAAAM~!” Fans want MJF & Cole to “HUG IT OUT! HUG IT OUT!” MJF and Cole look to each other, and they HUG!! Friendship prevails! At least, this one does. Roddy is again beside himself, but The Kingdom appears to keep him back. Cole raises MJF’s hand in victory and the confetti flies! As does pyro! Is there nothing that can stop the best brochachos of AEW? Will AEW never stop making history for pro-wrestling around the world? Will you be along for the ride? Because in 2024, All In will be BACK in London again!!


My Thoughts:

An awesome show from top to bottom here. But I would like to say to start, AEW needs to NOT have All In and All Out just a week apart. AEW builds are always rough, but having an All In build overlapping with an All Out build makes it awkward. Give All Out room to breathe. That said, there wasn’t really a weak match on the card, as is also an AEW standard. MJF & Cole bookending the night was great stuff, but in the moment, it was actually a little disappointing that they won against Aussie Open cleanly.

Yes, All In still had Roderick Strong antics for the main event, but this just stings for Aussie Open specifically. They’re such a good tag team, and are only title-less now cuz of Davis’ injury costing them the NJPW belts, when he wasn’t even out as long as it sounded. But maybe now Aussie Open returns to NJPW and gets a set of belts again. As for said main event, it was amazing on all the story beats they referenced and turned on their heads. Cole started showing his Heel side and MJF was a great Eddie Guerrero style Face. What a creative sequence with that chair! And the draw fake-out was clever.

Roddy’s antics costing Cole the belt but not his friendship was a surprising move, too, but a great one. You can bet The Kingdom challenge for the ROH Tag titles at All Out and that is when Cole must choose a side. Cole could easily throw the match against The Kingdom and let them have the tag belts because he will want one more title match with MJF. The double turn will have been completed, and wherever MJF VS Cole Round 3 happens, that place is gonna explode over this title match.

Good stuff in the two hour Zero Hour, too, such as Hobbs and Miro with an impromptu contract signing segment, and an improvised alternate version to the planned Big Show & Hardys VS Triple J match they couldn’t do cuz, well, Jeff Hardy’s past issues… Wight, Ogogo & Grado bringing the fight to Triple J was great stuff, I really do hope AEW can swing something to have this play out for AEW TV or even All Out. And of course, sprinkled throughout the night, great tributes to Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. Buddy placing the lantern down was probably the best one, as he and Malakai were both in the WWE at the same time as Bray.

Great FTW Championship match, especially with including the limousine. Hook winning was of course the move, he and Jack are now 1-1 and can have a tiebreaker at All Out or something. Punk VS Joe opening the main show was a slightly surprising move but they had a great opener. Punk winning though he got bloodied and bullied was a pretty good booking of the match, and Joe has his ROH World TV Championship to focus on anyway. And whatever you’re hearing about #BrawlIn of Punk and Perry getting at it, take it with a grain of salt, as Perry made sure to bring up some “real glass spot” issue the two supposedly had. Maybe Punk was again a hothead but maybe this is a work, given how their matches were back to back.

Speaking of matches back to back, The Elite were all in the same block of time when you look at the card. Awesome Six Man from Kenny, Kota & Hangman VS Konosuke & Bullet Club Gold, and great way for the Heels to win without really hurting the Faces’ power rankings. Konosuke pinning Omega there, we gotta be getting their 1v1 match at All Out with Callis getting more involved than he did here. The Young Bucks VS FTR was awesome, too, they also had great references to past spots, but I am genuinely surprised FTR won. I guess Cash’s legal issues aren’t bad enough to warrant a title loss. The Bucks may not be Heels but they sure aren’t going to be friends with FTR.

Stadium Stampede, for its changes, still ended up a lot of fun, though I don’t think they’ll ever capture the magic of the Pandemic Era Stadium Stampede, or the original Anarchy in the Arena, which is really the same match. Penta transforming into Oscuro was a rather interesting choice, and presentation of it wasn’t the best. But in the end, the Faces winning was the right move, so that this loss will really get under the skin of the BCC. Cassidy going on to defend his International Championship on Dynamite, like, he has to be losing it now, right? He is in the worst shape of anyone on the active roster! And if it’s anyone, it should be Moxley, they hinted at that even in this match.

Great Women’s Fatal 4 Way for the title, and as I figured, it was so clear Saraya was winning tonight. She had win entrance bringing the family to ringside with her, and Queen as her theme and the hometown crowd behind her. But I also like that they had this be the moment The Outcasts fell apart. Storm is definitely the one being kicked out. She punched Saraya’s mom, she wanted to pin Saraya to win, and then she punches Soho! Saraya and Soho can just go for being a Two Woman Power Trip if you will, Saraya as world champ and Soho as TBS champ. We just need Tony Khan to know what he’s doing with scheduling his women’s division.

The Tag Team Coffin match was so good, that casket went through a lot tonight. And I am actually very pleased to see there was NOT a Nick Wayne betrayal, he stuck by his friend in Darby. Though, Luchasaurus kidnapping him, that could change things… He could be brainwashed by Christian Cage and then he betrays Darby at All Out to help Luchasaurus retain! And while it doesn’t really make sense in the story they were giving us, I do appreciate that Jericho was playing Heel to Ospreay in their match since England was NOT gonna boo Ospreay. Ospreay getting the win here is great, and Jericho’s bad mood and pushing Sammy away quite literally makes for a new wrinkle in this story.

Great Trios Championship match with it becoming No Holds Barred by Open House Rules. As I figured, we have new champs with Acclaimed & Billy winning. Nice detail of House of Black handing the belts over personally, as a slight showing of respect. Maybe the House moves on to where Malakai wants a singles title and the others go for tag titles against FTR or something. And now Acclaimed & Billy are free to face all sorts of Trios out there for some fun and fresh feuds. Just not Triple J or QTV, we already had those teams and Acclaimed go a round. Give us Dark Order adding their new people, or let The Embassy drop the ROH Six Man belts so they can move up to AEW full time.

My Score: 9.2/10

PLAY BY PLAY

Tony Schiavone is in the ring.

The fans are already fired up as Tony welcomes us to AEW Dynamite in New Orleans! “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome with me to begin this program, multi-platinum recording artist, entrepreneur, and University of New Orleans’ own ‘Coach P,’ ladies and gentlemen, MASTER P!” The fans fire up again as indeed, THE Master P, the hip hop legend and the owner of House of Glory Wrestling, makes his way to the ring! P says what up New Orleans! It’s AEW Dynamite, UNHHH~! It is his pleasure to introduce to us the NEW AEW World Trios Champions, THE OPPS! “Make ’em say UNHHH~!”

The fans cheer even more as Samoa Joe, Katsuyori Shibata and “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs make their way out, wearing those University of New Orleans Pirates colors! Samoa Joe gets himself a mic to say, “Lemme try that one one time. Make ’em say UNHHH~!” “UNHHH~!” “Nana nana!” Master P says it is about to get rowdy rowdy, ’bout it ’bout it! Joe says yes, sir! It is good to be here tonight! Because you see, The Opps have come to celebrate. The fans like the sound of that! Joe says before that, props to big brother Master P. Joe thanks P for the introductions, and for everything he does for this great city. Joe appreciates it, he knows the people appreciate.

Joe says BigBlueUNO.com, see what P is doing for the student athletes here. Master P says there’s always love for the student athletes. Master P is Coach P, there’s nothing but love for this city. Joe says that’s a good thing, because they love New Orleans, too. When they thought about the best city to celebrate a championship win, it’s right here in New Orleans! But wait, the Death Riders are here to ruin the fun. Well, Marina Shafir comes out from the back, but Wheeler Yuta rushes in from the ramp! He CLOBBERS Shibata, Claudio CLOBBERS Hobbs, and Moxley uses the briefcase to CLOBBER Joe! The fans boo and Master P can’t believe it!

Claudio drags Hobbs out, Yuta keeps after Shibata, and then Hobbs is sent into steel steps! Moxley CHOKES Joe, Marina is there to hold Joe down, and then Moxley stomps Joe! The fans boo but Master P stands his ground! The fans cheer on the coach but this is still a 3v1 situation. Moxley steps to Master P, and then Master P chuckles…? Because JOE IS BACK UP! Joe has the COQUINA CLUTCH on Moxley! Shibata and Hobbs drag Yuta & Claudio from the ring to fire in return! Master P even gets some shots on Mox! The fans fire up as the tables have turned on the Death Riders! P laughs as Moxley goes out, again!

Master P says this is New Orleans, right? They want all the smoke! This about to be a problem. Go ahead, put ’em to sleep! But wait, The Elite rushes out here! And Matthew Jackson has a chair! He SMACKS Joe down to free Moxley! Master P hurries out of there now, there’s a lot more going on. The fans boo as the Death Riders turn the tables back around. The Bucks say you’re welcome, Moxley. But then Marina steps in and keeps Moxley from retaliating, And then “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE! The fans fire up as now the Realest is on the scene! Joe gets back up again, The Elite retreat now that things are getting complicated.

But then Kenny Omega makes his way out here! And The Cleaner has a chair of his own! The Elite scurry after where The Death Riders made their exit! The fans fire up as AEW International Champion stands with the World Trios Champions and the Most Dangerous Man in AEW. Then these five look to each other, and Joe grabs the mic again. “In respect to whose house it is, nice to see you again, brother. I will say this: JON MOXLEY! You wanted me, now you have me. I’m gonna beat your ass, choke you out, and ladies and gentlemen, I’ll be taking back my AEW World Championship.” The mission statement has been issued, but will all part of “Team AEW V3” be okay with that?

 

Backstage interview with The Patriarchy.

Renee Paquette is with Christian Cage, Kip Sabian, Mother Shayna, and the youngest ever singles champion in ROH or AEW history, the NEW ROH World Television Champion, Nick Wayne. A huge congratulations to Nick, but Christian says actually, the congratulations should all go to him. He even takes the belt from Nick! Christian says Nick would agree that if not for The Patriarch, Nick would not be standing here the champion. Because Christian is the one who forced Nick to step out of his shell, find himself, spread his wings and truly become what it is Christian’s always known Nick to be, and that’s The Prodigy.

Christian still says they’re all proud of Nick. They all celebrated. In fact, Christian and Shayna celebrated Nick’s victory extensively, later that night. Nick scowls but Christian says, “Do you see what happens, Nick, when you listen? When you shut your mouth, you open your ears, and you actually listen to me?! Good things happen, and I always tell the truth, don’t I?” Nick asks Christian if he sees what happens when you actually stick to the plan: You actually win championships. Nick tries to take his belt back, but Christian holds onto it. Christian then willingly gives it over, and says, “I love my family.”

Christian storms off, and neither Kip nor Shayna is really sure what to make of this. Is there about to be a new head of the household now that Nick’s standing up for himself?

 

Ricochet VS Mark Briscoe!

The One & Only is brushing off the losses that have plagued him in hopes of reaching his goal of gold in AEW. However, will he #ReachForTheSky against the Sussex County Chicken? Or can Ricochet #ManUp against the former ROH World Heavyweight Champion?

The bell rings and the fans rally up. The two circle, the fans taunt Ricochet with, “OH~ Ricochet’s Bald~!” Ricochet is annoyed, and he goes out to bond with the fan in the front row who is also bald! He claims everyone else is making fun of this guy, too! In fact, isn’t Mark bald? Why aren’t people talking Mark for being bald?! The fans chant, “You Aren’t Mark! You Aren’t Mark!” The two tie up, Ricochet powers Mark back, but Mark turns things around to corner Ricochet. The ref has Mark back off and the fans rally up. Ricochet and Mark reset, feel things out, but Ricochet goes to the ropes for defense.

The fans boo but Mark waits on Ricochet. Ricochet and Mark circle, feel things out, but again Ricochet is in a corner. The ref backs Mark off, and then Ricochet runs up! But Mark blocks a shot to fire hands in return! Mark keeps Ricochet from escaping to ROCK him again! And again! Mark whips, Ricochet reverses, and Ricochet drops down, hurdles over, but Mark follows to ROCK him with a forearm! Mark kicks low, then runs, and he BOOTS Ricochet! Ricochet staggers, Mark BOOTS him outta the ring! The fans fire up and Mark WRECKS Ricochet with a dropkick! The fans fire up more as Mark drags Ricochet up and CHOPS!

Mark stalks Ricochet, UPPERCUTS him, then keeps Ricochet from escaping into the crowd. Mark CHOPS Ricochet again! Ricochet ROCKS Mark, goes for the ring, but Mark drags him back out! Mark swings, Ricochet dodges, and Ricochet goes up the apron, Mark joins in and dares Ricochet to fight. Ricochet kicks, Mark blocks, and he spins Ricochet for a waistlock. Ricochet fights the lift, elbows free, but Mark clinches! Ricochet CLUBS away on Mark, then BOOTS him! Mark falls back, Ricochet taunts the fans and he taunts Mark. Ricochet scuffs Mark, taunts the fans, then runs, but into a DROPKICK!

The fans fire up as Ricochet falls to the floor! Mark takes aim, BANG BANG! FOLEY ELBOW DROP! The fans fire up and Mark puts Ricochet in the ring. Cover, TWO! Ricochet stays in this, but Mark CHOPS him! Mark shines up Ricochet’s head to then ROCK him with a right! Mark brings Ricochet around to suplex, but Ricochet slips free! Ricochet O’Conner Rolls, TWO! Mark kicks low, then whips Ricochet to ropes. Ricochet grabs ropes, but Mark blocks a boot! UPPERCUT! Ricochet goes to a corner, Mark runs in, but Ricochet uses the ref as a shield! Then Ricochet YANKS Mark into the ropes!

The fans boo but Ricochet brings Mark up to shove him into more ropes! Mark sputters, Ricochet builds speed, and Ricochet WRECKS Mark with a dropkick! Ricochet taunts the fans, taunts Mark, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.

Ricochet take a moment to catches his breath, then he storms over to Mark to CLUB him on the back! Ricochet drags Mark up to RAM him into the apron! Then Ricochet smooths his eyebrows and beard, talks trash on some fans, then takes a fans’ sign to SMACK Mark with it! Mark CHOPS Ricochet! Ricochet CHOPS Mark! Ricochet puts Mark in the ring, CLOBBERS him, then rains down fists! T he ref reprimands, the fans taunt Ricochet, and Ricochet argues with the ref before going back for Mark. Ricochet shines Mark’s head before he throws hands, and he SLAPS Mark on the head! Mark just gets mad, Ricochet SLAPS him again!

Ricochet mocks the fans for mocking his baldness, and he BOOTS Mark down! Ricochet digs his knee into Mark’s neck, then acts like that’s a cover! The ref reprimands, Ricochet “apologizes” and covers Mark properly, TWO! Mark is tougher than that, so Ricochet brings him up, only for Mark to fire hands! Mark runs, but into a DROPKICK! Ricochet struts and soaks up the heat, then he goes back to cover Mark. TWO, and Ricochet clamps onto Mark with a chinlock. Mark endures, even as Ricochet digs a knee into his back. Mark fights up, fires body shots, but Ricochet knees low! Ricochet whips Mark to a corner, but Mark goes up and out!

Ricochet runs up, Mark blocks a shot to ROCK Ricochet! Mark then climbs, leaps, but Ricochet avoids the ax handle! Mark comes back, ducks ‘n’ dodges, but then Ricochet dodges to CUTTER! Dynamite returns to single picture as Ricochet covers, TWO! Ricochet is frustrated but the fans fire up. Ricochet brushes that off to then go to the corner. Ricochet goes up, says this is for the fans. AX- atomic drop! The fans fire up as Mark dares Ricochet to take a shot. Ricochet swings, Mark dodges and Mark CHOPS! And CHOPS! And fires a flurry of forearms! Mark whips, Ricochet reverses, but Mark FLYING FOREARMS!

The fans fire up as Ricochet flounders to a corner. Mark runs up to LARIAT, and BULL- NO, Ricochet stops that, only for Mark to SLAP, SLAP, SLAP the bald head! Then FISHERMAN BUSTER! Cover, TWO! Ricochet survives but the fans rally up behind Mark. Mark drags Ricochet up, but Ricochet grabs the ropes. Mark pulls Ricochet free, but Ricochet slips down and dragon sleepers, only for Mark to drop down and victory roll! TWO, and Mark hurries, only for Ricochet to trip! Jackknife bridge, TWO!

Mark blocks the gamangiri, but Ricochet blocks the haymaker to HOTSHOT! Mark falls, Ricochet springboards, 450 SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Mark survives again and the fans are thunderous!

Underhooks and- NO, Ricochet RAMS Mark into the corner! The fans cheer ‘A E DUB” for giving us this match. Ricochet runs up, Mark dodges, but Ricochet ELBOWS him down! Ricochet highs tacks, feet on ropes, TWO!! Mark has the prawn hold, AND WINS!

Winner: Mark Briscoe, by pinfall

Ricochet couldn’t win the International Championship, he couldn’t win his share of $400,000, and now he loses to Chicken! The fans celebrate with Mark, but Ricochet’s a sore loser! He grabs a chair and JAMS Mark up with it! The fans boo, but Ricochet SMACKS Mark on the back! And SMACKS him again! The fans boo more while Mark writhes, but Ricochet brings out the GOLDEN SCISSORS! But wait! Kevin Knight rushes out here! The Jet DECKS Ricochet! He dares Ricochet to try something, then he stands on the scissors! Ricochet runs away! Kevin says he’ll cut Ricochet’s beard!

Knight then checks on Mark. Mark is alright, and the fans cheer. We even see Rock ‘n’ Roll Express here! They cheer on Mark, will Mark soon be headed for new title opportunities?

 

Tony Schiavone is back in the ring.

He welcomes us back to the show, but just as he’s about to begrudgingly welcome out FTR, he is interrupted by Stokely Hathaway! Big Stoke says there has been a change of plans, and he’s got this now. “They are living legends. Top guys! TEN TIME World Tag Team Champions! New Orleans, give it up for F T R!” The fans boo, but the music hits and Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler make their way out, walking with Stokely to the ring. FTR shake hands with Schiavone, and Stokely reintroduces himself. He will address the elephant in the room. FTR were suspended and fined for accidentally hitting someone, and simply touching Tony Schiavone?

That is interesting to Stokely, because there are other people who have literally set people on fire. Hangman Page has committed arson! Ricochet decides to come to work and shanks people with scissors! And should we even list all of Moxley’s crimes? Stokely will. Acts of terrorism, kidnapping, extortion, and all to FTR, yet he walks around here unpunished. That is unjust! But do not worry, that’s why Stokely is here. Stokely says that suspension will be expunged from their permanent records. Those fines will be reimbursed, based on the very public, ugly, and nasty way this has all played out.

Moving forward, if you wanna have a conversation with the Top Guys, you need to have a conversation with Stokely. As of today, Stokely Hathaway is the new agent for the greatest tag team today, F T R! Now, Schiavone, do your job. Schiavone thanks Stokely, and then holds the mic for FTR. Cash says beautiful work from Stokely. But what happened last week with Daniel Garcia was not an easy decision for them. But “Danny” gave them no choice when he made his own decision. The fans boo, Cash says please be polite, he is talking. Don’t forget, it was 2Point0 that got in FTR’s face! It was 2Point0 that came at FTR! It was 2Point0 that wanted a fight!

And from where FTR is from, when you want a fight, you better be ready to fight. And well, 2Point0 wasn’t ready for that fight. Cash has respect for Danny, though. When he asked them to stop, FTR stopped. Danny is FTR’s friend. But then he goes and treats them like that? Don’t forget, Danny, you came to them for help. When every other veteran here left him high and dry and directionless, it was FTR that got Danny to the TNT Championship. FTR put Danny first, they put Cope first, they put AEW first, and that got FTR nothing but disrespect! NO MORE! FTR first from now on! And you’re gonna boo them for that?!

The fans do indeed boo, but Dax steps in. What’s with the hostility? Relax. Speaking of living legends, there are a couple legends in the house right now! Rock ‘n’ Roll Express are here! Dax invites Ricky & Robert to the ring to share the spotlight. Ricky & Robert stand up, the fans cheer, and Dax says c’mon now, we’ve got TV time ticking. Watch your step, we don’t want anyone falling. Rock ‘n’ Roll Express do indeed step into the ring with FTR, Stokely & Schiavone, and Dax tells the fans that if they didn’t cheer FTR, no need to cheer Rock ‘n’ Roll. The fans boo but Dax says one of the greatest teams of all time, Rock ‘n’ Roll Express!

Ricky & Robert have had some of the greatest matches with some of the greatest teams. Which do they feel is their greatest match of all time? Before Ricky or Robert can answer, Dax says it would have to be Philadelphia with the Midnight Express. And to be honest, no shade, but Midnight Express was better. The fans boo, Dax says no, hold on, tonight is going to be about Rock ‘n’ Roll Express. 40 YEARS of Rock ‘n’ Roll Express, they’re still going strong. How old are they? And again, Dax interrupts by saying that he’d have to say just on looks alone, he’d go with 109. And being 109 means they were running hard in the 80s, if you know what he means.

What would they say was their greatest experience in the 80s? Ricky stops Dax from interrupting this time! The fans cheer and Ricky says no more of this. Don’t try and embarrass Ricky & Robert in front of the wrestling world. Stokely steps in and says there doesn’t need to be hostility. This is kinda ironic, but Stokely has something. He has Dax hold his mic, and then he brings out the brand new FTR merch shirt! FTR: Living Legend Killers. This one’s for Ricky. Stokely throws the shirt at Ricky, and then FTR attacks! The fans boo as Cash DECKS Robert, and then Dax reels Ricky in! Cash goes up, MIND BREAKER!!

But here comes The Paragon! FTR runs from Adam Cole, Roderick Strong & Kyle O’Reilly! The Top Guys stoop to new lows, but will The Paragon make sure FTR get the worst of it?

 

The Young Bucks VS Kevin Knight & “Speedball” Mike Bailey!

We saw Matthew & Nicholas Jackson earlier tonight try and again ingratiate themselves to the Death Riders, only to be reminded they have many more enemies than friends. But this match is really only because The Jet & Speedball went a little overboard with their celebration last week, what with the $400,000 and The Opps winning the World Trios Championships. Will The Bucks be a couple of buzzkills? Or will they still throw a Superkick Party?

The teams sort out and Matt starts against Bailey. The fans cheer as the two circle. Bailey trips Matt, things speed up, and Matt stays low. Mike handsprings, then bypasses Matt to drop down and hurdle over! Matt leaps over, but Bailey ducks a kick! Matt ducks a kick, and then DOUBLE SUPERKICKS hook each other! The fans fire up as the two hop around, but Nick runs in and CLOBBERS Bailey! Knight storms in but Nick kicks and CLUBS him down! The fans boo the Bucks, but they bring their opponents up. The Bucks double whip, but Knight & Bailey duck ‘n’ dodge, only for The Bucks to DOUBLE BACK ELBOW!

The Bucks double kip up and soak up the heat as they hit their classic pose. But then Knight & Bailey are up! They spin The Bucks around, Bailey SOBATS Nick but Matt ROCKS Knight! Matt throat chops Bailey! Matt whips Knight, but Bailey gives him the boost for the CROSSBODY! Then they TOSS Matt out onto Nick! The fans fire up as Knight & Bailey say #2Fly! DOUBLE PLANCHAS take down The Bucks! The fans fire up and high-five with Knight. Knight & Bailey put Matt in, they DOUBLE CHOP, then they double whip. Matt grabs ropes, Knight runs up but Matt TOSSES him! Matt ELBOWS Bailey away, and then Nick PENALTY KICKS Knight!

Backstage interview with Toni Storm.

Renee is now with the Timeless AEW Women’s World Champion, as well as butler Luther, and notes that tonight, it is Kris Statlander VS Jamie Hayter in the Women’s Owen Hart Tournament Semifinals. Renee also notes that Toni has been watching everyone in this tournament very closely. Toni says, “And why shouldn’t I? These are the preeminent individuals in our entire industry. So ladies, good luck. Pound your flesh, rip your tits, but don’t you dare get any blood on my pearls. And remember: You are now watching your feature presentation.” Renee says speaking of feature presentations, this weekend in Hollywood, Toni will be on the red carpet for the TCM Film Festival.

Toni says yes, some new little science fiction film. Renee says it’s Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Toni says there’s not an empire big enough to strike her back. But remember, she is a lover and a fighter. She isn’t just going to spend this weekend cucking around with Ben Mankiewicz! She has an idea! Toni grabs her title and stands up on top of a chair. “Attention, slop tarts! This Saturday on Collision, I’m going to have a Championship Eliminator Performance! So if there’s any b*tch that has the itch-” Oh, Queen Aminata steps up immediately. She says she’s back, and you know she likes to fight. So, let’s do this.

Toni says, “No, no, darling. It’s… Let’s make cinema!” Toni has Luther carry her away, but will Playoff Palooza end up an underdog sports story?

 

The Hurt Syndicate is here!

New Orleans fires up and sings along, “We Hurt~ People!” as Montel Vontavious Porter, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin make their way to the ring. MVP holds up a fan’s sign that says, “WE HURT PEOPLE,” then he grabs a mic. “Attention, AEW viewing audience. This is an official announcement from The Hurt Syndicate. On behalf of the Standard of Excellence, Shelton Benjamin, and the All Mighty, Bobby Lashley, we are the Hurt Syndicate, and we hurt people.” The fans cheer that! MVP says in fact, they’re so good at that, that every single tag team they’ve faced for these AEW World Tag Team Championships haven’t been back!

MVP says they’re all home healing up. Then the Gates of Agony stepped up, and they said they like to be hurt? That’s a silly thing to say to two of the most dangerous men on the planet! But they obliged, and they hurt those two. You will not be seeing The Gates of Agony in the near future. But perhaps you will see them eventually, because Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona are hungry young lions and they will return. Now is just not their time. This time right now, MVP will hand the mic over to Lashley, because he has a few things he’d like to say. The fans cheer that! MVP passes the mic to Lashley, but then an engine starts revving.

MVP sighs as we see a fancy sports car pull into the parking lot. And out steps none other than Maxwell Jacob Friedman. MJF tells a guy to keep it running for him, then nut taps him on the way out! MJF laughs at his own prank, and even says, “What a do*che.” MJF heads to gorilla, and that means he makes his entrance! Lashley smirks because of course MJF is making his way out here. MJF has a mic to say cut his music. The fans cheer MJF on, and MJF tells the Hurt Syndicate, “Gentlemen, I know… Hell, we all know you had a good time last week, okay? And if you guys wanna have a good time for the rest of your lives, all I need are three thumbs up. That’s it.”

MJF waits, and MVP says okay, let’s try this one more time. MVP says we know how he feels, he is still thumbs up. The fans cheer for “THREE THUMBS UP! THREE THUMBS UP!” Shelton is no longer intimidated by Lashley, and he gives the thumbs up! MJF is excited, but Shelton denies him the hug. Shelton tells MJF that to make this real clear, this isn’t a thumbs up because of “a bunch of broads and a watch.” The only reason Shelton gave MJF a thumbs up is because of MVP, so don’t forget that. MJF says of course! He loves Montel! We ALL love Montel, right? The fans cheer! MJF says, “We also love our good friend, Bob!”

The fans cheer for “BOB! BOB! BOB!” and MJF says c’mon, let’s see it. Lashley holds out his hand, but MJF says hold on, hold on, he has a feeling he knows where Lashley is going with this. So please, give him one more second. MJF knows Lashley has his reservations, but if he’s in the Syndicate, then they’ll get all the money, the power, the respect, and the gold! Lashley brings a lot to the table, but with all due respect, there are things MJF brings to the table that Lashley does not. MJF knows AEW better than anybody. MJF knows how to cut corners better than anybody! And he knows how to win by any means necessary better than anybody.

If they let MJF in, they don’t just run AEW, they run professional wrestling! MVP says that’s a good point. MJF says he knows they got off on the wrong foot, but really, that’s not MJF’s fault. But, but, but…! MJF is willing to admit as Salt of the Earth, he’s been a bit prickly over the rejections. So MJF wants Lashley to know, from the bottom of his heart, two words he’s never said before… “I’m sor…” MJF trails off and the fans chant, “Say You’re Sorry!” MJF says he is, okay? Shut up! “Bob…! I’m sorry!” MJF gets it out and the fans cheer! MJF catches his breath and then Lashley holds up his hand. MJF panics and says before Lashley puts the thumb down…!

Did Lashley see the car he drove here in? Did they like that car? If Lashley gives a thumbs up, that car is his! MVP says that’s another good offer. Lashley chuckles and says he needs the keys. Of course! But they’re in the back, so we gotta take a walk. Okay, let’s go take a walk. MJF says we’re taking a walk! The fans cheer as MJF leads the way back to the parking lot. MJF tells the fans they’re as tough to look at as they’ve been lovely, so thank you. But will the keys to that incredible car be the key to MJF joining the Hurt Syndicate?

 

MJF and the Hurt Syndicate arrive in the parking lot.

MJF has the valet hand the keys back, and MJF has them look at this beauty. Talk about horsepower! It is gorgeous! Lashley takes the keys, steps into the driver’s seat, and Shelton joins him at shotgun. MJF asks for a thumbs up, but Lashley just drives away! Thumbs… DOWN?!? MJF just got tricked! MVP has MJF calm down and says you gotta give the people what they want. MJF grits his teeth as he tells Lashley to have fun with the car… But if it isn’t gifts that will win The All Mighty over, what must MJF give him?

 

Backstage interview with Hangman Page.

Renee is with the once again Anxious Millennial Cowboy, and she notes that was a huge victory for Hangman in the Owen Hart Tournament. Hangman beat the wild card, Josh Alexander, and is now set to face Kyle Fletcher next week in the semifinals held in Norfolk, Virginia. Kyle viciously attacked last week, so how is- “The MOMENT that I see Kyle Fletcher, I am going to put his ass in the ground! And it looks like somebody wants to get in here, so get your ass in here.” MJF steps in and says, “Howdy, Cowboy. How you been? You look great. By the way, I wanted to compliment you on your new haircut. I love that it makes it look like you met your wife at a family reunion.”

Hangman says MJF hasn’t changed anything about himself since he was 12 years old. But Hangman is in the middle of an interview, so unless MJF has something of substance to add, he should just get in his car and- Oh…! Right, we just saw what happened there. MJF sarcastically laughs that off, and says it’s “Joke Man” Adam Page. Here’s a joke for him: Guy enters the Owen Hart Tournament, only to then watch MJF stroll on in through the backdoor with the Hurt Syndicate to reclaim what is rightfully his and become a TWO-TIME AEW World Champion. Hangman says like MJF knows anything about the backdoor.

MJF’s whole plan is to use Hurt Syndicate, but how does that get him an inch closer to the world title? But maybe after Hangman beat MJF’s ass at Revolution, MJF had to figure something out because he knows he can’t win matches, and he knows he can’t hang with Hangman. MJF says wow, first of all, of course Hangman doesn’t understand his intentions with The Hurt Syndicate, Hangman’s an idiot. Second of all, Hangman wants to act high and might because he beat MJF, well check the math, they’re 1-1. If they ever do face off again, MJF sends Seabiscuit to the glue factory where he belongs.

And third of all, the personal favorite for MJF: Hangman thinks he’s a badass for being in the Owen Hart Cup? Hangman is a great wrestler, MJF will not take that away from him. But if Hangman does manage to get to the finals, he’ll just do what he does best, and that’s choke. MJF leaves, Hangman shouts he has something for MJF to choke on! Dumbass! Hangman storms off, but will he make it through the semifinals? Or will the Aussie Arrow make sure Hangman can’t go Double or Nothing?

 

Josh Alexander & Konosuke Takeshita w/ Don Callis Family VS Will Ospreay & Brody King!

Speaking of the Owen Hart Cup, the Walking Weapon lost to The Cowboy, and the Alpha lost to the Aerial Assassin in their epic semifinal showdown.

Or will the #BillyGOAT and King of Death be a truly killer combo?

The teams sort out and Ospreay starts against Takeshita to start where they left off from last time! The fans fire up as the two circle, and Callis of course joins commentary. Ospreay and Konosuke feel things out, only for Alexander to CLOBBER Ospreay from behind! Konosuke BLASTS Brody off the apron, the ref reprimands, but the Don Callis Family mug Ospreay. They double whip, DOUBLE ELBOW, then stand Ospreay up for DOUBLE BACK SUPLEXES! They shake hands, and then DOUBLE ELBOW DROP! Takeshita flexes, then he drags Ospreay up. Konosuke bumps Ospreay off buckles, tags Alexander, and Alexander ROCKS Ospreay!

Alexander runs to drop a KNEE, but the fans sing for “Ospreay~, Ospreay Ospreay Ospreay~!” Alexander whips corner to corner, Ospreay goes up and over, then Ospreay keeps moving to RANA Alexander!

Ospreay whips, Alexander grabs the ropes, but Ospreay runs up, only for Alexander to put him on the apron. Ospreay ROCKS Alexander, takes aim, but Konosuke anchors Ospreay’s legs! Konosuke sits Ospreay down and Alexander CROSSBODIES! The fans boo but Callis and Lance Archer like what they see, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.

Callis whispers something to Konosuke before Konosuke rolls into the ring. Alexander looms over Ospreay, holds him up, and Konosuke distracts the ref, allowing Callis to get a cheap shot in! Callis is giddy as he goes back to commentary. Alexander then storms in and he stomps Ospreay around. Alexander stalks Ospreay, CHOPS him, then Konosuke CHOKES Ospreay in the corner! The ref reprimands, but Alexander scoops and SLAMS Osprey! Tag to Konosuke and he goes up to SUPER SENTON! Cover, TWO! Konosuke drags Ospreay up, reels him in, and Ospreay endures the COBRA TWIST! The ref checks on Ospreay, but that lets Konosuke link up with Alexander!

The ref looks and sees what they’re up to, so Alexander lets go. Konosuke scoops Ospreay for a BACKBREAKER! Tag to Alexander, he stalks Ospreay, and he steps on Ospreay’s foot to keep him from Brody. Alexander then stomps the ankle! Alexander grabs a leg, twists Ospreay’s ankle, then he JAMS the leg up! Ospreay hobbles away, but he still CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! But Alexander dropkicks the bad leg! Ospreay falls in a heap, and Alexander fishhooks him into sitting up! Alexander CLUBS Ospreay in the chest, soaks up the heat, and then he stalks Ospreay to ropes. Konosuke is there to CHOKE Ospreay again!

The ref reprimands, Konosuke stops, and Alexander argues with the ref. Konosuke HOTSHOTS Ospreay! Ospreay staggers away, the ref keeps Brody back, and Alexander drags Ospreay up to UPPERCUT! Ospreay staggers to a corner, Alexander UPPERCUTS him again! Ospreay falls, Alexander clamps on a chinlock! Dynamite returns to single picture and the fans rally up. Ospreay fights up to fire body shots, then he reaches out to Brody. The fans rally, Alexander holds Ospreay back, but Ospreay fires a forearm! Ospreay still reaches out, but Alexander still holds on! Ospreay fires another forearm, and another, but Alexander ducks the shot!

Brody DIVES and takes out Alexander & Konosuke! The fans fire up as Brody then drags them both up, brings them around the way, and makes them sit in the same chair. Alexander is on Konosuke’s lap, and Brody CHOPS Alexander! Seems like Konosuke still felt the force of it through Alexander. Brody gets space, and New Orleans barks along.

My Thoughts:

A great Dynamite here, with strong build in all the stories that they’ve got going right now. Great opening segment with Schiavone bringing out Master P, Master P bringing out The Opps, and then all that causing The Death Riders to show up. Good brawl there, and that was fun having Master P laugh at Moxley being choked out. But then good move having The Elite show up, that works for the story of The Elite still trying to join forces with The Death Riders. But then Swerve and Omega showing up was also good. With the news that Moxley VS Joe is now for Beach Break, I am very certain we’re getting Stadium Stampede/Anarchy in the Arena for Double or Nothing. Seeing The Opps, Omega & Swerve together, that’s just a natural Team AEW for this time around.

Similarly, very good promo stuff with Schiavone inviting out FTR. I’m a little surprised Stokely Hathaway is back as FTR’s manager, but at least he’s getting to do something. Very good promo from FTR, Passive Aggressive Dax is pretty funny. And then FTR turning on Rock ‘n’ Roll Express, that was wild. The Paragon showing up was good stuff, and we’ll get a great match of FTR VS Roddy & Kyle. Also, I guess it really is official, Cole-Roddy-Kyle are The Paragon, and “The Kingdom” returns to just being Taven & Bennett. And while prerecorded so that they can play it between NBA games on Saturday, Playoff Palooza looks like a lot of fun.

Ricochet VS Mark Briscoe was a great match that wasn’t quite so outta-nowhere, given last week’s big money 8 Man Tag. Good win for Mark, but of course Ricochet attacked him. Kevin Knight making the save was good, and it helped give us the finish to Knight’s tag match against The Bucks. That tag match was bordering on PPV quality, but it makes sense Ricochet would cheat Knight as payback. Knight VS Ricochet definitely needs to happen next week before Knight has to go back to Japan for Best of the Super Juniors. And in the meantime, perhaps Ricochet and Bailey can feud as a holdover until Knight gets back in the Summer.

Great promo from MVP to put over the Gates of Agony, and great stuff with MJF and the Hurt Syndicate. I could just tell Lashley was gonna get the better of MJF with that car deal. This is definitely going to boil down to how Lashley might actually want a world title shot, making the whole thing of MJF joining a moot point. Great promo between MJF and Hangman, one of them will definitely cost the other something, and it is definitely more likely MJF costs Hangman against Kyle or Ospreay in the tournament. Another great tag match tonight with Ospreay & Brody VS Konosuke & Alexander.

The Don Callis Family of course cheated to get their win, and also great beatdown stuff after. Hangman wanting after Kyle was good stuff, and with the Don Callis Family standing tall, there’s a very big chance that it ends up Ospreay VS Hangman for Double or Nothing. For one, as I just said, MJF can cost Hangman. Also, we’ve gotten plenty of Ospreay VS Fletcher lately, we can give them time before they fight again. Great promo from Toni to issue an open challenge and have it immediately answered by Aminata. Maybe they’re doing this now that they went and changed the ROH PPV schedule, and that kinda screws up when and where Aminata VS Deeb was going to happen…

Then great main event of Kris VS Jamie. I am legit surprised it was Jamie winning to face Mone, I really thought Kris was going to make that push to the top. Mone VS Jamie will still be awesome, and it’d still be great to see Toni VS Jamie again after all this time, but it still feels like Toni VS Mone ends up the All In match, even though I still argue we should be getting Mone VS Athena so that Athena can be on the big PPV in her hometown. Though, I guess if Supercard of Honor is going to be in Texas, that’s supposed to make things up to The Fallen Goddess when she deserves the bigger stage.

My Score: 8.9/10

PLAY BY PLAY

Marina Shafir storms out here!

She throws some poor rando around on stage, and then kicks her off stage, to then storm into the ring. Marina intimidates Arkady Aura into giving up her mic, then here come the Death Riders! Claudio Castagnoli SHOVES a cameraman down, then SMASHES the camera! Then he CHOKE SLAMS the cameraman through a table! Wheeler Yuta beats up more equipment, the fans boo these sore losers, because clearly this is all in response to losing the AEW World Trios Championships just last night. Boston tells off Yuta but he just uses that as motivation. Jon Moxley is in the ring, waiting for all of this to calm down a bit.

Marina gives Moxley the mic, and Moxley tells the fans and everyone celebrating last night better enjoy it now. “Hobbs, Swerve, Shibata, enjoy it now! Because it’s the last chance you’re gonna have to celebrate for a long time!” The fans boo, but Moxley tells The Young Bucks he officially doesn’t like them, he doesn’t like looking at them, so they better stay in their own lane. They cross the line with Moxley, he swears to God that they are never seen or heard from again, and he means that! Fans are torn there, but Moxley says from the first day he started in this sport, there was one undisputed baddest man in pro-wrestling. That man is Samoa Joe.

The fans cheer for “JOE! JOE! JOE!” and Moxley says he has always shown Joe respect, treated him with reverence. The fans sing, “Joe is gonna kill~ you!” Yuta tells them to shut up! Moxley says he has given Joe that reverence, he has given Joe his space, and it could’ve stayed that way. But Joe started something that Moxley has to finish. Because Moxley doesn’t know any other way, he will not run, he will not hide, he will not roll over and die. he knows no other way to do this but to fight Joe to the death for the AEW World Championship! Tomorrow, now, for better or worse! Mox will be clear: He is challenging Joe!

The fans again chant for “JOE! JOE! JOE!” Moxley says that’s all he’s gotta say. Joe’s known Moxley long enough to know exactly what he’s dealing with. Moxley then storms off, leading the Death Riders away. Will Samoa Joe accept that challenge, and perhaps even go Double or Nothing?

 

Kevin Knight VS Lance Archer w/ Don Callis!

The Jet is feeling real good having his share of $400,000, and he’s preparing for next month’s NJPW Best of the Super Juniors tournament. But will Knight still be too fly? Or will he be sent crashing down by the Murderhawk Monster?

The moment Archer hits the ring, he hits Knight! Archer fires off in a corner, the bell rings, and the ref counts. The fans boo but archer only stops to throw his jacket at Knight! Then he THROWS Knight out of the ring! The fans tell Callis off like they did last night, but Archer SMACKS Knight off the LED walls! Archer says night-night, Knight! He CLUBS Knight down on the stage, then drags him up to TOSS him down the ramp! Knight flounders to the apron but Archer steps inside to stop the ring count. Archer goes out to drag Knight up, choke grips, and CHOKE- NO, Knight flips free! Knight blocks a boot, ROCKS Archer, then goes up the corner, BIG triangle jump DROPKICK!

The fans fire up as night goes to the apron, springboards, QUEBRADA! They fall on the ramp and the fans fire up! Knight storms after Archer as they go into the ring, then Knight climbs up. Knight leaps to SEATED- NO, Archer catches Knight! Knight fights and RANAS Archer into a corner! Knight stomps and UPPERCUTS on repeat! Knight then stomps a mudhole, but stops as the ref counts 4. The fans fire up with Knight, but Archer LARIATS Knight inside-out! The fans boo but Archer drags Knight back up. Short arm LARIAT! Callis applauds while Archer rains down forearms on Knight’s head.

The ref reprimands about pulling hair but Archer tells him to shut up! Archer stomps Knight, paces around him, then drags him up. Archer CLUBS Knight on the back, then stalks him to a corner. Archer CHOPS Knight but the fans rally, “Let’s Go, Kevin!” Archer whips, Knight sunset flips, but Archer stays up! But Knight avoids the punch! Knight runs to SLIDING SHOULDER TACKLE! Archer tumbles out of the ring, Knight runs, and he WRECKS Archer with a dropkick! Archer pinballs off the desk, then Knight goes up the corner. But Callis grabs at Knight’s foot! The fans boo, Callis gets away with that, but Archer drags Knight down!

Archer ROCKS Knight, then SWINGS him into the steel steps! Archer is all fired up, Callis is happy, but the fans boo while Collision goes picture in picture.

Archer drags Knight up, brings him around, and whips him hard into railing! Knight sputters, the fans cheer him on, but Archer brings Knight up. Archer ROCKS Knight, sits him in a chair, and then runs up to BOOT him down! Knight slumps against the barriers while Archer refreshes the count. But this just lets Callis get his shots in! Callis hammers Knight, but stops before he gets caught. Callis talks smack on the fans, especially that one guy in the third row. Archer stands Knight up against barriers, calls out a small child in their father’s arms, and then CHOPS Knight! Archer drags Knight along the way, taunts more fans, but Knight fires body shots!

Knight CHOPS Archer, but Archer isn’t even bothered! Archer whips Knight back into the ring, then storms in after him. Archer looms over Knight, stands on Knight’s hand, then steps off as the ref reprimands. Archer taunts Knight, stands him up, and pulls hair to put him in the corner. Archer climbs up, taunts the fans, and he smothers Knight! Archer rains down fists, but he stops short of ten to rob the fans the satisfaction! Spring Breakthru returns to single picture and Archer runs corner to corner. ELBOW! Archer keeps moving, and he ELBOWS Knight again! Archer wants more, so he runs again, to ELBOW Knight again!

The fans are torn as Archer has his hattrick, and he looms over Knight again. Archer taunts Knight, slaps him around, but Knight fires a body shot! Archer nods, eggs Knight on, and Knight fires more hands! The fans fire up, but Archer DECKS Knight! Archer drags Knight around, has a cocky cover, ONE!! Knight is tougher than that as a former IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion, and he flips Archer off! Archer grabs at him, Knight cradles, TWO!! Archer almost got caught, but he BOOTS Knight for that! And GERMAN SUPLEXES! Knight lands on his face and Archer grins. The fans rally for Knight but Archer puts him in a corner.

Archer hoists Knight up top, ROCKS him, then lifts Knight in the reverse crucifix! Knight flails, BLACKOUT- NO, Knight lands out! But Archer grabs him! CHOKE- DROPKICK! Knight turns things around, then fires hands! The fans rally as hard as they can for Knight as Knight fires shot after shot! Knight whips, Archer reverses, but knight slips to the outside! Archer hits buckles, Knight springboards in, but Archer gets clear. Knight comes back, but into a BOOT/STOMP! Archer drags Knight right up, then goes up the corner with him! The fans fire up already as Archer lifts Knight, but Knight fires elbows!

Knight fires body shots now, Archer pushes him back, but Knight returns, to the UPPER ROOM! Knight rolls and UFO SPLASHES! Cover, TWO! Archer is still in this, but Knight runs corner to corner, only for Archer to dodge! Arche comes back, DERAILER!! Archer hauls Knight up, BUCKLE BOMBS, and CHOKE SLAMS! Cover, TWO?!?! Knight survives and Callis is furious! Archer snarls but he drags Knight back to a corner. The fans rally as hard as they can for “KEVIN! KEVIN!” but Archer walks the tightrope! But Knight trips Archer up! Archer is stuck on the ropes, and Knight DROPKICKS him down!

The fans fire up as Knight springboards, FLYING FOREARM to the floor! The fans fire up and Knight puts Archer in! Knight springboards, but Archer catches him! Knight HOTSHOTS that arm, then springboards again, FLYING LARIAT!! Cover, Knight wins!!

Winner: Kevin Knight, by pinfall

The Jet flies high and takes the win! Will this literally big win help Knight take over the BOSJ?

 

The Opps speak.

After Dynamite went off the air, the NEW AEW World Trios Champions regrouped backstage. Samoa Joe said, “Do you understand the unusual thing about predators? Predators tend to think they are the largest and most evil thing in the jungle. They think that nothing pursues them because they are the pursuers. Tonight, the Death Riders learned that wasn’t the case. See, we are The Opps. We are not a movement, we are not an understanding between gentlemen, no. We are men who only need an opportunity and excuse to commit violence. We are men like Shibata. We are men like myself. And now, Death Riders, you learned we are men like Willy Hobbs.

“We are The Opps. We are your AEW Trios Champions. And we are coming for so much more.” The Death Riders were the hunters but are now the hunted, will their reign of terror end thanks to The Opps?

 

BREAKING NEWS for next week’s Collision!

While Collision will return to Saturday nights, it will also have to wait until after coverage of the NBA Playoffs. The silver lining? It’ll be live from coast to coast! Make sure you schedule accordingly so you don’t miss a minute of the Playoff Palooza!

 

Backstage interview with Jamie Hayter & Kris Statlander.

Renee Paquette is with these two ahead of their Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament match, set for next week on Dynamite. It is a semifinal match, and yet this is also the first time Kris and Jamie face off 1v1. The winner goes on to Double or Nothing to face Mercedes Mone in the tournament finals, but Kris stops Renee there. Enough about Mone. And enough about Toni Storm, honestly. There are plenty of other women in this locker room who work just as hard, if not harder, than those two. Jamie says she won’t disagree there. Jamie works hard, Kris works hard, and Jamie won’t stand here to give endless pats on the back.

But Jamie also knows Kris is good, being a former TBS Champion. And Kris knows Jamie is good, being a former AEW Women’s World Champion. They both know they can go, and this right here has been a long time coming. Whoever wins this, they better go all the way. See you Wednesday, mate. That match is for Dynamite, but will Kris get a leg up on Mone in the tag match later tonight?

 

Tony Schiavone reads a letter from FTR.

Given the suspension as announced last night, Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler are not allowed in the building, so they sent this message instead.

“Dear Tony & Nigel, I (Dax) wish I could take back everything we did to you guys last week. It was completely unacceptable, unnecessary, and unwarranted. I honestly think the punishment for us wasn’t severe enough.” Schiavone explains it is a suspension for a week, without pay. Dax’s letter continues to say, “Tony, I would never have gone through with the piledriver with you. You said some things about my daughter that I won’t hold against you. But in the heat of the moment, I felt I was justified to scare you a little. I love you, Tony.” Schiavone rolls his eyes, the fans boo because they don’t believe Dax’s words.

Schiavone explains this next part is addressed to Nigel. “I never wanted things to get physical between the three of us, I know your body, and your mind for that matter, is very fragile.” Nigel rolls his eyes at the passive aggressiveness there. “I’m sure you were thinking the same thing with emotions as we were. Even though you probably knew there was no way you could ever beat us up, LOL. Again, my sincerest apologies to you both, and I hope we can just move forward in a professional and productive manner. With love, Dax Harwood.” The fans still boo the ingenuine sentiments, and Nigel sarcastically accepts the apology. Will FTR ever actually learn their lesson?

 

Josh Alexander & Konosuke Takeshita VS Rocky Romero & Tomohiro Ishii!

The Walking Weapon couldn’t defeat the Cowboy, so he goes and sucker punches him after the match, then seemingly joins forces with The Don Callis Family! Will Alexander get his first win alongside The Alpha? Or can Azucar & Stone Pitbull conglomerate their way to a victory?

The teams sort out and Ishii starts against Konosuke in a battle of Openweight Champions! The fans fire up as Ishii and Konosuke go toe to toe, then they start shoving! The forearms start flying, the fans fire up, and Ishii gets the edge! Ishii runs, but Konosuke BOOTS him! Konosuke whips, Ishii reverses, and then Ishii ducks the lariat to waistlock.

Alexander runs to BODY CHECK Rocky off the apron! The Don Callis Family soaks up the heat, then they fetch Rocky off the ground. Alexander puts Rocky on the apron, CLUBS him, then slides in. Alexander has the ref watch Ishii, and then he stomps Rocky around. Alexander scoops and SLAMS Rocky, then tags Konosuke. Konosuke goes up to SUPER SENTON! Cover, TWO! Rocky stays in this, but Konosuke stays on Rocky with a snapmare and KCIK! Konosuke tags Alexander and Alexander stalks Rocky. Alexander drags Rocky from the ropes to drop a knee! Cover, TWO! Alexander stalks Rocky to the ropes, then bumps him off buckles.

Alexander CHOPS Rocky, and Collision goes to break.

Collision returns and Konosuke has Rocky up top! Rocky fights the back suplex with fists, then he BITES Konosuke! The ref reprimands, but Rocky cravats to hit a SUPER SLICED BREAD! The fans fire up while both men crawl, hot tags to Alexander and Ishii! The fans fire up as these two RAM, and RAM, and then Ishii ROCKS Alexander! Ishii whips, Alexander reverses, but Ishii comes back to CLOBBER Alexander! And SAIDO! Cover, TWO! Alexander survives but Ishii runs, only for Konosuke to get a cheap shot in! Ishii DECKS Konosuke for it! Alexander waistlocks, Ishii fights and switches, but Konosuke runs in!

Alexander ducks, Konosuke BOOTS Ishii! Konosuke runs, he and Ishii DOUBLE LARIAT! Konosuke rebounds to LARIT Ishii down! Rocky runs up, wrenches Konosuke, and kicks off Alexander to TORNADO DDT! Ishii LARIATS Konosuke back down, but Alexander kicks! Ishii blocks, feed to Rocky for a kick and UPPERCUT! Then Ishii hits a GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up more as Ishii runs, and he LARIATS Alexander down! Cover, Rocky blocks Konosuke, but Konosuke SHOVES Rocky onto Ishii! The match is saved but the ref reprimands everyone for being in the ring. Ishii and Rocky argue, but Konosuke has Rocky!

Alexander holds on, ripcord, DOUBLE ROLLING ELBOWS!! Then a POWERBOMB!! High stack, Don Callis Family wins!

Winners: Konosuke Takeshita & Josh Alexander, by pinfall

Rocky looks conflicted, but they why did he leave Ishii all alone to begin with?! Callis celebrates with his guys, will nothing stop the family from taking over AEW? Rocky goes back to help Ishii, but Ishii shoves Rocky! Ishii asks what the heck, but wait! Is that TRENT BERETTA!? Rocky CLOBBERS Ishii, and Trent takes off the jacket! Trent rains down fists on Ishii now, and the Callis Family returns?! Trent was Don Callis Family the last time we saw him, and it seems he still IS Don Callis Family! Callis explains to Konosuke that it’s fine, and he gives Trent the monkey wrench! The very thing that took Trent out almost a year ago!

Rocky stands Ishii up, and says goodbye. Trent CLOBBERS Ishii with the monkey wrench!!! Trent & Rocky are in the Family, will AEW soon belong to them?

 

Backstage interview with Mercedes Mone.

Lexy Nair welcomes in #FourBeltsMone, and Mone again says, “Bostooon~! Say hello to your C E O!” Lexy congratulates Mone on defeating Athena last night and advancing to the Women’s Owen Hart Cup finals at Double or Nothing. She will either face Kris or Jamie, and Kris is someone Mone has had a lot of history with. Mone stops Lexy there and says that history is where Mone won them all. Tonight, she is in the main event in another tag match alongside Harley Cameron. Mone already groans as Harley brings out “Mini Mone!” “Bostooooon~! Say hello to your C E O~!” Mone says she already did that.

Mini Mone knows Main Mone doesn’t wanna talk to Harley right now, but she has assured Mini Mone that things will be different this time. They better be! Now now, talk to Mini Mone. She’s not gonna do that! Harley, just stay out of the way and not be such a loser! Harley pouts but Mone says there’s no reason to be sad. Mini Mone says yeah, there’s no crying in wrestling! Damn right! Wait, wait, why is she talking like the puppet’s real!? Harley starts singing “Ride the Money Wrath Train~!” Mone says no no no! Mone storms off, but the train is on the tracks either way. Mini Mone says, “See you tonight!” Will The CEO and the wild Aussie stay on track as we head for Double or Nothing?

 

2v1 Handicap Match: Megan Bayne w/ Penelope Ford VS Rebecca Scott & Ashley Vox!

The wrath of the Megasus has yet to be satiated, so she is again doubling up on opponents. Will even Everyone’s Favorite Flight Attendant & The Reel Catch #BowDown?

The bell rings and Vox & Scott DOUBLE DROPKICK! The fans fire up as they bring the fight to Megan with fast hands! They double whip, but Megan crisscrosses them into each other, then DOUBLE GERMAN SUPLEXES!! The fans fire up as Megan roars, and she reels Vox in! Megan hauls Vox up to POWERBOMB!

Anthony Bowens speaks.

“Throughout my life, I’ve been told ‘no’ so many times. But if I wanted it bad enough, I always found a way. And here in AEW, I won’t take ‘no’ for an answer. My name is Anthony Bowens. I am AEW’s 5 Tool Player. The perfect combination of power, athleticism, intelligence, the look, and The It Factor. I am the Pride of Professional Wrestling, led by a badass. I intend to use every tool necessary to climb to the top of AEW. And oh, yeah, I intend to win gold. Let’s make history. So the question is, who’s next to step to the plate and get their ass Molly Whopped by THE Five Tool Player?! That journey starts now. Don’t believe me? Well I’ve got five tools and one rule: Prove them wrong!”

 

AEW TNT Championship Open Challenge: Adam Cole VS ???

The Panama City Playboy is in Boston, ready to make this City of Champions undisputed! But who will step to this paragon of wrestling? CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI! The Death Riders never left the building, they were just lurking from the shadows! But will the Swiss Cyborg snatch away this title to make up for the one he lost?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who brings the boom!

The bell rings and the two tie up. Claudio powers Cole right to a corner, lets off as the ref counts, but then Cole avoids the sucker punch! Cole fires fast hands, the fans fire up, but the ref counts. Claudio scoops Cole first to SLAM him down! Claudio looms over Cole, drags him up, and he whips Cole, only for Cole to reverse. But Claudio bounces off buckles to BOOT Cole down! The fans boo but Claudio stalks Cole. Claudio drags Cole up, scoops again, but Cole fights around to a SLEEPER! The fans cheer, but Claudio RAMS Cole into buckles. Claudio is free, but Cole BOOTS him, then JUMP NECKBREAKERS! Cover, ONE!!

Cole hurries to headlock, but Claudio powers up and lifts Cole, only for Cole to sunset flip! Claudio drags Cole right up, but Cole fires forearms! The fans fire up as Cole whips, btu Claudio reverses. Cole grabs ropes, 52 Fake Out! SHINING WIZARD! Cover, TWO! Claudio stays in this but Cole runs up to BOOT him back down! Claudio bails out, throws a fit, but then Cole BOOTS him off the apron! The fans fire up for “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY!” Claudio goes to the apron, Cole storms up on him, but Claudio trips Cole up! Claudio drags Cole out, Cole fires forearms, but Claudio knees low! Claudio whips Cole hard into barriers!

Claudio winds up, runs up, but Cole dodges! Now Claudio hits the barriers! Cole fires forearms, stalks Claudio around the way, and he fires forearms again. Claudio YANKS Cole into the barriers! The ring count climbs, Claudio hauls Cole up, BARRIER BACK SUPLEX! Cole flops to the floor and the fans lose their minds! Claudio refreshes the ring count, but he does wait on Cole. Cole slowly crawls, so Claudio goes out to fetch him. Claudio UPPERCUTS Cole, Cole staggers around, and Claudio military presses him! Claudio TOSSES Cole out into the crowd! The fans go nuts again, and they cheer on “A E DUB! A E DUB!” for making this possible.

Claudio storms into the ring, soaks up the heat, and the ref checks Cole. That was a rough landing on that hardwood floor, but it seems Cole is okay to continue. The fans rally for Cole as he hobbles his way back to ringside. Cole rolls in, but Claudio runs up to LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Cole stays in this but Claudio clamps onto him with a chinlock. Cole endures, the fans rally, but Claudio squeezes tight. Cole fights around, fights to his feet, and the fans fire up as Cole fires body shots. But Claudio knees low, then TOSSES Cole back out! Cole flops to the floor, the fans boo more, but Claudio just soaks it all up as Collision goes picture in picture.

Cole gets checked by Doc Sampson, given that big bruise right on his side. The ring count climbs all the while, and Claudio paces as he waits on a verdict from Doc. Cole seems to be okay to continue, and he crawls his way over. Cole grabs at the apron skirt, drags himself up, and springs in at 9! Claudio is right on him and rains down fists! Claudio is all fired up, and also sports a cut on his arm from hitting these barriers. Claudio scoops to hit a BACKBREAKER, and then he bends Cole against his knee! Cole endures, throws hands from below, but Claudio shoves him down! Cole avoids the elbow drop! Claudio snarls, but Cole fires a forearm!

Claudio UPPERCUTS, Cole fires another forearm, repeat! Claudio looms over Cole but Cole still comes back with a forearm! The shots go back and forth, but then Claudio smothers Cole with a chinlock! Cole endures and fights back up, but Claudio pushes him down to the mat! Claudio leans on the hold as he grinds Cole down. Cole fights up again, fires body shots, and Spring Breakthru returns to single picture. Claudio ROCKS Cole, runs, but Cole ROCKS Claudio! Claudio UPPERCUTS into a backslide! TWO, and Cole fireman’s carries, but Claudio fights free! Claudio whips, UPPERCUTS, then whips corner to corner.

Claudio runs in and UPPERCUTS! Then he whips corner to corner again, for another UPPERCUT! Claudio tries again, but Cole SUPERKICKS him down! The fans fire up while a standing count begins again! Cole is in a corner, but Claudio rises up to get him. Cole JAWBREAKERS, then ELBOWS, then BOOTS! Claudio still comes back, Cole gets around, BACKSTABBER! Cover, TWO! Cole is frustrated and sore, but he still stands up. The fans fire up as Cole is in the corner, and he climbs up the ropes! Cole aims, Claudio stands, PANAMA- BACKDROP! Claudio wags his finger, then he storms up, but has to fight off another fireman’s carry!

Claudio short arm LARIATS, then he drags Cole up! Claudio reels Cole in, but Cole BACKDROPS! Claudio just manages to land out, but Cole SUPERKICKS again! Cole now fireman’s carries, for USHIGOROSHI! Cover, TWO! Claudio stays in this and Cole is frustrated, but the fans rally up behind Cole. Cole goes back to the corner, hops up again, and Claudio’s up. PANAMA SUN- NO, Claudio trips and SWINGS Cole! The fans are torn as Cole goes around and around! TEN and Claudio THROWS Cole! Cover, TWO!! But into a CROSSFACE! Claudio pulls back on Cole but Cole endures! The fans rally as Cole reaches out. Cole rolls to a cover, TWO!

Claudio THROWS Cole to a corner! Claudio runs, UPPERCUTS, and then runs again! But Cole DUMPS Claudio out! Claudio HOTSHOTS Cole, hurries up the corner, then leaps, into a SUPERKICK! Cole covers, TWO!! Claudio is still in this, but both men are running on fumes. Cole rises up, brings down the kneepad, and says it’s time. But Claudio stops Cole to waistlock, only for Cole to PELE! Cole runs, into a POP-UP UPPERCUT! Cover, TWO!! Cole survives and Claudio is in disbelief! Cole goes to a corner as Claudio snarls and rises up. Claudio runs up, UPPERCUTS, and UPPERCUTS, and UPPERCUTS!

The ref backs Claudio off, the fans boo, but Claudio just seethes. Cole drags himself up with the ropes, Claudio runs back in, UPPERCUT! UPPERCUT! UPPERCUT! Claudio just UPPERCUTS and ELBOWS away! The ref backs Claudio off, warns him to listen to authority, but Claudio goes back in for more UPPERCUTS! The fans rally for Cole as he takes these shots, but then Claudio hoists him up top! Claudio climbs, goes to the very top, SUPER DUPER PLEX!! Cover, ONE, and into a ghost pin! COLE WINS!!!

Winner: Adam Cole, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)

Claudio is in shock! But perhaps his anger got the better of him as he could’ve done things different. But the rest of the Undisputed Kingdom/Paragon is here to celebrate with their guy! Will Cole, Roddy & Kyle all be rolling on the road to Double or Nothing? Wait, now Claudio FLIPS the desk over in his anger! And then he stands it up on it’s side to tip it the other way! And another way! Yuta and Moxley hurry out here to try and calm Claudio down, and the fans taunt Claudio, “That’s expensive! That’s expensive!” They even chant “LOSERS! LOSERS!” The Death Riders storm off, what will satiate their anger?

 

Backstage interview with “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith.

Lexy Nair is with the former Learning Tree Branches, The Redwood & The Bad Apple. She brings up how last week, Chris Jericho said he wasn’t angry, he was just disappointed, and then he left them to themselves. Where do they go from here? Bill says Jericho was disappointed in them, but Bill is disappointed in Jericho. Jericho is supposed to be the leader, and yet he walks out on them? Quite honestly, Bill is getting… angry. Keith wants Bill to chill. Not right now. What? What’s the difference? They talked about this in private, what’s the difference with it being now? Keith says it is like Bill just said: It was in private.

Keith knows Jericho said they were family, and that means something to Keith. And he just feels that if they’re family, they should handle this like family, and that is internally. And maybe, if Bill didn’t put Jericho on blast last week, Jericho wouldn’t have left. Bill understands, family is very important. That is why Keith wants to get back in the good graces of Jericho. Bill gets that. He just isn’t sure they should be living and dying at the whims of Jericho. Either way, the strategy moving forward is the same: They need to get in the ring, crack some skulls, and stack some wins. Lexy, to answer the question of what’s next, that is next.

Bill heads out, Keith follows, but will they do better or worse without The Nueve?

 

Six Man Tag: La Faccion Ingobernable VS Rosario Grillo, Leon St. Giovanni & KM!

Finally, El Toro Blanco has returned! Rush leads Dralistico y The Beast Mortos into action again, will LFI finally stampede through AEW?

The trios sort out and LFI just attacks! Dralistico has Grillo, Rush has KM and Mortos as LSG! Things spill out side, LFI send their opponents into barriers, and then Darlistico CHOPS Grillo! Rush stomps KM, Dralistico stomps Grillo, and Mortos is back in the ring. The fans fire up with Mortos, and Dralistico sends Grillo into more railing! Rush regroups with his hermanos, both literal and in arms. Dralistico CHOPS LSG, Mortos SPLASHES, and then Mortos whips LSG corner to corner for another SPLASH! Mortos whips LSG to ropes now, for a POP-UP SAMOAN DROP! Tag to Dralistico and he springboards in, FLYING CODE BREAKER!

LSG flounders around and the fans fire up. KM tags in, but Dralistico SOBATS, KICKS, and ENZIGIRIS! The fans fire up as Dralistico tags in Rush! The fans fire up and Rush SUPERMAN PUNCHES KM! Then he DECKS LSG, HEADBUTTS Grillo, and he lets Dralistico FLY! Down go LSG and Grillo! Rush then says, “You mess with the bull…” YOU GET THE BULL’S HORNS!! KM takes those right in the face! Cover, LFI wins!

Winners: La Faccion Ingobernable, by pinfall

LFI makes quick work, and Rush says LFG! Will these three be like bulls in a China shop when it comes to the AEW Trios Division?

 

Backstage interview with Kevin Knight.

Renee catches up to The Jet as he and “Speedball” Mike Bailey say hey. A big congratulations for Knight in winning against Archer. Renee is pretty sure that match came about because Callis didn’t like the rejection he got in trying to recruit Knight and Speedball. Knight says pretty much, but that’s understandable. He doesn’t think the Don- Ricochet steps in, backwards hat and military coat not really going together, but he tells Knight to shut it. Ricochet says these goofs are not the story of the week. The story is how they screwed Ricochet last week and stole that prize money!

Speedball says if by “screwed,” Ricochet means Speedball’s team beat him fair and square to win 400 stacks, then yeah, he got screwed. Ricochet says first, you pinned Mortos, not Ricochet. And seeing as how they’re the new guys here, here’s some “veteran advice.” Don’t upset the top talent in AEW. You don’t disrupt the chain of command. And since Knight and Speedball are so low, at the bottom of the pole, take his advance before something bad happens. Knight says Ricochet has it all twisted, they respect him. Knight and Speedball respect the game, the in-ring talent, the hot wife, all of that.

But anything that Ricochet can do, the Jet can, too. In fact, here’s something he can do that Ricochet can’t. And then he shakes them dreads! Ricochet says here’s what he can do: he can smack Knight in his mouth! Then do it then! Maybe he will, if Knight keeps talking! Knight fakes a slap and makes Ricochet flinch! Ricochet says okay, he wants trouble now. Yeah, Knight needs that. Speedball says okay, just not tonight. Speedball and Knight head out, Renee tosses her hair and leaves. But will the One & Only find he’s the only one with a problem?

 

ROH World TV Championship: Komander w/ Alex Abrahantes VS Nick Wayne!

If Christian Cage is to be believed, this match has come about all thanks to him pulling the strings. But at the same time, he told his “son” that he’d have to win this one on his own. Will The Prodigy make The Patriarch of the Patriarchy proud? Or will the Commander of the Skies ruin Christian’s “gift?”

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who’s the real star of ROH TV!

The Code of Honor is not upheld as Nick SPITS at Komander! The bell rings, the fans boo, and Komander DORPKCIKS Nick! Komander fires off hands in the corner, Nick scurries away but Komander keeps on him! Komander CHOPS, Nick kicks low, and then Nick ROCKS Komander. Nick storms up, but Komander kicks, mule kicks, front kicks, and CHOPS! The fans fire up, Komander whips, but Nick reverses. Komander rolls off Nick’s back, then blocks the chop to knuckle lock and CHOP! Komander goes up, up, jumps around, and then FLYING RANAS! The fans fire up again while Nick flounders away.

Komander runs in, Nick TOSSES him to the ramp! Nick comes back, but Komander GAMANGIRIS him down! Komander goes up with Nick in the drop zone! But Nick hurries away, no Cielito. Komander still tightrope walks to ARABIAN PRESS, only for Nick to put him on the apron! Komander RAMS into Nick, springboards, and CROSSBODIES! Then DROPKICKS! The fans fire up while Nick bails out to the ramp. Komander aims, springboards, but Nick dodges! Komander comes back, Nick puts him in the ring, then he ducks a haymaker to HOTSHOT! Komander falls and the fans boo, but Nick checks his teeth.

We see Christian Cage, Kip Sabian & Mother Shayna are watching this backstage as Nick hurries back in the ring. Nick stomps Komander, RAMS him into a corner, then puts him up top. Komander wobbles, Nick winds up to CHOP, then Nick climbs. Komander fires hands and Nick backs off. Komander hops down, springboards, but Nick SHOVES him down! Komander crashes to the floor and Collision goes picture in picture.

Abrahantes coaches Komander, and Nick goes outside to taunt the fans. Nick then fetches Komander to THROW him into railing! Komander writhes, Nick soaks up heat much like he did during Prelude to Spring Breakthru. Nick fetches Komander again, puts him in the ring, and taunts the fans before stepping inside. Cover, TWO! Nick is annoyed but he looms over Komander. Nick drags Komander up, throws him into the ropes, then CHOKES him! The ref counts, Nick steps off and he taunts the fans before he CHOKES Komander again! The ref counts again, Nick steps off, and Komander sputters while Nick swaggers around.

Nick drags Komander up, brings him around, and snapmares for a leg drop! Cover, TWO! Komander stays in this and Nick grows frustrated. Nick tells the fans to shut up, but Collision goes to break.

Collision returns and Nick again has Komander on the ropes, literally. Nick whips Komander then KNEES him against the ropes! Nick soaks up the heat, whips Komander again, but Komander springboards to go up and FLYING ARM-DRAG! Then he reels Nick into a EURO CLUTCH! TWO!! Nick escapes in time, but Komander CHOPS! And CHOPS! Nick kicks low, runs, but Komander scoops to BACKBREAKER! The fans fire up while both men are down! Abrahantes and Boston rally for “KO-MAN-DER!” Nick goes to a corner, Komander runs up, but Nick dodges! Nick runs in, but Komander puts him up top, ROCKS and CHOPS him, then triangle jump ENZIGIRIS!

Nick flops to the ramp and the fans fire up! Komander builds speed, and he FLIES to SWANTON Nick on the ramp! A rough landing no matter what, but Komander still kicks Nick in the ring. Komander aims from the corner, tunes up the band and the fans join in. Komander runs, goes up, up, and MOONSAULTS! Cover, TWO! Nick survives but the fans taunt him with “Whose Mom?” “NICK’S MOM!” Komander drags Nick up, torture racks, but Nick fires hands! Nick is free, he goes to a corner, but Komander runs up. Nick goes up and over, victory rolls, TWO! Komander runs back in, but Nick sends him hard into buckles!

The fans boo while Nick takes aim. Nick kicks but Komander ducks it! Komander RAMS Nick into the corner, then hops up, POISON-RANA! Cover, TWO! Nick survives and both men are down while the fans fire back up. Komander goes back to the corner, aims and springboards, but Nick slips around! DRAGON SUPLEX! Bridging cover, TWO!! Nick is stunned, but he takes aim again! Komander rises, into Nick’s ROUNDHOUSE! Then up, up, WAYNE- TIGER FEINT sweeps the legs! And then a FLYING DESTROYER!! Nick tumbles out of the ring, staggers around, and the fans are thunderous as Komander builds speed!

Komander goes up, up, and ARIHARA MOONSAULTS!! Direct hit on Nick and Boston is erupting! Komander puts Nick in, “This is Awesome!” as Komander climbs again. Nick is in the drop zone, for CIELITO LINDO onto BOOTS!! Nick turns things around, then takes aim, ROUNDHOUSE! Nick roars, reels Komander in to pump handle and PRODIGY PLEX!! Cover, NICK WINS!!!

Winner: Nick Wayne, by pinfall (NEW ROH World Television Champion)

Boston doesn’t like it, but Nick Wayne just became the youngest singles champion in ROH! The Patriarchy is certainly proud, but then Christian Cage leaves Shayna and Kip to go off somewhere. Will he prepare some other gift for his Prodigy as celebration?

 

Hologram is loading.

And Hologram will return to action next week for Playoff Palooza! Will the incredible win streak continue?

 

Top Flight speaks.

Dante Martin calls out Action Andretti & Lio Rush to say, “Guess what? We just came from Tony Khan’s office, and there’s no more running, there’s no more hiding, no more ducking, because we have a match next week.” Darius says it isn’t just any match. This has been going on for far too long, so they’re over the wrestling part of this. They want to fight The Cru! Forget the rules, forget the tags, it is a TORNADO TAG MATCH! Leila Grey tells Action & Lio that they’ll see ’em next week for Collision: Playoff Palooza. That is, if The Cru has the balls to show up. Well hold on, The Cru shows up now!

Lio & Action tell Top Flight that they don’t have to wait! Security steps in and keeps this from getting out of hand, but what will happen when there’s nothing holding these teams back?

 

BREAKING NEWS for a future Dynamite!

It will be AEW’s return to Portland, Oregon, June 11th, when AEW does the unthinkable! It will be the first-ever AEW Summer Blockbuster, a FOUR HOUR edition of Dynamite! That’s right, F O U R!! Get tickets next Thursday, or at least set your DVRs so you do not miss what could be an instant classic!

 

Toni Storm is here!

The Timeless AEW Women’s World Champion was present last night to watch from afar, but now she wants to get a closer look at tonight’s main event!

Mercedes Mone & Harley Cameron VS Kris Statlander & Julia Hart!

The CEO is reluctant to step back into the ring alongside the wild Aussie, but Harley’s probably the only person who would team with her at this point. Can Harley help Mone keep the Money (Wrath) Train on track? Or will the #BornAgainKristen and the Princess of the Black Throne make a winning combination?

The teams sort out and Mone starts against Kris for both a revival of their rivalry, and also a teaser of what could be for the Owen Hart Cup finals. The two tie up, and Kris SHOVES Mone down! The fans cheer as Kris flexes, but Mone tags Harley. Harley and Kris tie up, and Kris SHOVES Harley away! Harley tags Mone back in, and then picks up Mini Mone! Wait, wait, Harley tags in Mini Mone? Is this a substitution or a 3v2 Handicap now? Harley THROWS Mini Mone at Kris, which Kris easily catches. Kris passes Mini Mone to Julia, how just puts Mini Mone down to step on! Harley tries to roll Kris up but Kris stays up.

Kris drags Harley to her feet, then slips around to roll Harley up! Harley rolls through, Oklahoma Rolls back, TWO! Kris runs up, Harley headlocks, but Kris powers up and out. Harley tilt-o-whirls and HARLEY-GO-ROUNDS! Kris ends up in a corner, the fans fire up, and Harley shouts, “Feel The Wrath~!” Harley runs in, Kris dodges, and then Kris runs in. Harley ELBOWS Kris, has Kris in the ropes, and sunset flips! TWO! Kris kicks, then deadlifts Harley for a suplex! The fans fire up, Kris tags Julia, and Julia takes the handoff to wrench and YANK Harley’s arm! Julia YANKS the arm again and again, then goes up the ropes.

Julia knuckle locks, then tightrope walks! The fans fire up as Julia hits an OLD SCHOOL! Then she adds a BLINDSIDE LARIAT! Cover, but Mone breaks it! The fans cheer, but Julia drags Harley up. Harley JAWBREAKERS, then runs, dodges, and ENZIGIRIS! Tag to Mone, but Julia drop toeholds! Julia dribbles Mone off the mat, but Mone gets free. Mone goes to a corner, Julia runs up and ELBOWS! Julia runs side to side, tags Kris, then goes back to ELBOW Mone again! Kris runs in and KNEES Mone down! Kris brings Mone around to scoop, and FALL AWAY SLAMS! The fans fire up while Mone flounders out and Kris flexes.

Kris goes to the apron, Mone blocks the kick, but Kris handstands out of the throw! Kris also avoids the sweep of her arms, but Mone goes up! Kris avoids the meteora, and they both stop as the other shows haymaker! They then look at Toni Storm, and then they both ROCK the other! Julia and Harley run up, but Mone and Kris DECK them! Then they fire fast hands with each other! The fans fire up, Kris KNEES low, and Collision goes picture in picture.

Kris reels Mone in and FLAPJACKS her off the apron! Mone flounders, Kris stands on her while doing the CEO dance! Kris hauls Mone up and into the ring, covers, TWO! Kris drags Mone up, tags Julia, and they mug Mone. Julia ROCKS Mone, whips her to a corner, but Mone reverses. Mone runs up, blocks boots and ROCKS Julia! Julia is in the ropes and Mone hits the STOCK DROP! Mone huffs ‘n’ puffs before she drags Julia to a cover, TWO! Mone is annoyed but she drags Julia up again. Mone snapmares Julia, runs, and METEORAS! Cover, TWO! Julia stays in this but Mone taunts Kris. Mone dares Julia to crawl to Kris, but then she bumps Julia off buckles.

Mone tags Harley and they mug Julia. Harley brings Julia around, whips her to ropes, and ELBOWS her down! Cover, TWO! Harley stays between Julia and Kris, then brings her around. Julia JAWBREAKERS free, then CLUBS Harley. Julia CHOPS Harley at the ropes, CHOPS her again, then fires forearms. The ref counts, Julia backs off, but then Julia whips Harley to ropes. Harley ducks ‘n ‘dodges, and DOUBLE LARIATS take them both down! The fans rally while Julia and Harley crawl, and Spring Breakthru returns to single picture as they hot tag Mone and Kris! The fans fire up as Mone CHOPS, knuckle locks and goes up, up, and FLYING ARM-DRAGS!

Mone does her dance, then runs corner to corner, DOUBLE KNEES! Mone reels Kris in, the fans rally, and Mone snap suplexes! That’s Una Amiga, and then Mone gets Kris up for Dos Amigas! then THREE AMIGAS! But Kris stops it before quatro! Harley makes the save, and she helps Mone, only for Kris to DOUBLE SUPLEX! Kris rolls through?! DOS DOUBLE SUPLEX! Kris rolls through again and THREE DOUBLE SUPLEX!! The fans are thunderous, we see Jamie Hayter watching backstage and applauding, and Kris puts Mone & Harley in the drop zone! Kris goes up, but Harley rolls with Mone to avoid the 450 Splash!

The fans fire up as Kris tags Julia while Mone and Harley seem to have a tender moment of friendship. Julia ruins the moment with a STANDING MOONSUALT! Julia then tilt-o-whirls Mone, but Mone stops that to RAM Julia into the corner! And then she puts Julia in the Tree of Woe for KNEE after KNEE after KNEE! Mone goes out, goes up, but Julia SPIDER SUPLEXES her away! Harley runs up, Julia sits up to then roll back, and she takes a swing! Harley reels Julia in for a NECKBREAKER! Kris kicks Harley, reels her in, and hits a NORTHERN LIGHTS BOMB! But then Mone METEORAS Kris! Julia stalks Mone, runs up, wrench and STO!

Julia puts Mone in the drop zone, goes back up the corner, and HART SAULT gets KNEES! The fans fire up while Julia and Mone are both down! Julia and Mone stir, “This is Awesome!” as a standing count starts. Mone and Julia stir at about 4 of 10, crawl for their corners, hot tag to Kris! Kris fires off on Mone with forearms! Kris ROUNDHOUSES Mone, BLASTS Harley, and then runs up on Mone. Mone hooks her into the Gory Especial! Kris fights free, scoops Mone, but Mone kicks and flails! Kris’ legs give out, they both flop down, and the two fight on the mat. Kris powers up to her feet, but Harley tags in!

Harley brings Mone out of the gut wrench, but Kris hits the DISCUS LARIAT! Kris kicks, Mone blocks, and Mone KNEES Kris in return! Mone whips, Kris reverses, and Mone is sent into Julia’s TARANTULA!! But Harley rolls Kris up! TWO!! Mone is stuck as Kris scoops Harley and hits a BACKBREAKER! Then Kris cording holds Harley’s arm, kisses the bicep, and hits the Hayterade?! Cover, Kris & Julia win!

Winner: Kris Statlander & Julia Hart, by pinfall

That wasn’t just the game winner Kris hit on Harley, it was a message sent to Jamie! Luther helps Toni Storm to the ring so she can applaud Kris, and even blow a kiss! Will Kris go Double or Nothing with Mone to then go All In with Toni? Or will Kris feel a Hayterade from the source?


My Thoughts:

A great Collision to not just wrap Spring Breakthru but to keep things going immediately from last night. Very good promo from The Opps after their win, and some great stuff with The Death Riders for once. The Death Riders throwing a fit was good stuff, and Moxley had a good promo to call out Samoa Joe. Moxley wants his match with Samoa Joe, that’s a great detail in itself, and that is going to be a great match for Double or Nothing. Claudio stepping up to Adam Cole’s Open Challenge was also cool, and that was a great match. Cole surviving was a good touch, especially with how it just pissed Claudio off more.

Very good promo from Bill & Keith, and it feels very obvious that Keith will betray Bill to side with Jericho. We will get Bill VS Jericho, Keith will screw Bill, but then something will happen where Bill gets his rematch and wins over Jericho in the end. Really good “letter” from FTR to keep up their passive aggressive nature, and you can bet they’ll just do all the same things again next week when they’re back. Great to see LFI back in full force, but let’s just hope they actually get going this time around. There could even be some interesting intertwining of stories if LFI challenge for the trios titles at Double or Nothing, putting Joe in a double header situation since he’ll face Moxley for the world title.

Good promo from Top Flight with Cru to hype up next week’s Collision. But does every post-basketball Collision need a nickname? And as nicknames go, “Playoff Palooza” sounds more like a promotional deal run at a supermarket or car dealership. Really good stuff from the Don Callis Family tonight. Great match from Knight VS Archer and a great win for Knight. Knight and Speedball have a good promo with Ricochet, and a match of Knight VS Ricochet would be awesome, I hope we see it before Knight’s off for Best of the Super Juniors.

Great tag match of Alexander & Takeshita VS Ishii & Rocky, and I should’ve realized watching ROH Prelude to Spring Breakthru was teasing something for tonight. Rocky was salty over that loss there, and then he got even saltier during this match. Great to see Trent back, and now Roppongi Vice is Don Callis Family! They can be the tag team of the faction while Konosuke, Kyle Fletcher and now Josh Alexander all go for singles titles. Awesome ROH World Television Championship match from Komander and Nick Wayne, and again to my surprise, the Prelude foreshadowed stuff. Nick brought momentum into this match, he won this title, and unless he loses it back to Komander at like Supercard of Honor, he probably will bring the title to NJPW BOSJ.

Another great handicap match win for Megan Bayne, but she’ll still be spinning her wheels until after Double or Nothing with all this other stuff going on. Great promo from Mone, Harley & Mini Mone before their main event tag match, and same for Kris having a good promo with Jamie Hayter. That was of course a great match, and Kris winning using Jamie’s finisher was wild. I feel like with Toni Storm paying more attention to Kris, that’s a sign Kris is beating Jamie to face Mone at Double or Nothing. It’s still anyone’s guess who wins the Cup, because Toni VS Kris and Toni VS Mone are both great matches.

My Score: 8.9/10
