Josh Woods w/ Mark Sterling VS Brayden Erving!
The Technical Beast continues his comeback with Smart Mark lining ’em up so they can be knocked down. Will it be another easy night for Woods? Or will Brayden make a name for himself at the expense of the Sterling Stable?
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the two circle. The two tie up, go around, and Woods clinches to put Brayden in a corner. Woods fires off knee after knee after knee, but lets off as the ref counts. Fans fire up as Woods hits a swinging KNEE! And then another swinging knee! Woods hauls Brayden up, whips him to the corner, but Brayden stops to elbow back! And boot, and DROPKICK! Woods stays up, ducks the enziguri, and deadlift GERMAN SUPLEXES! Fans fire up as Woods BOOTS Brayden, then KNEES him in the face! Woods hauls Brayden up to suplex, for the TILT-O-WOODS! Cover, Woods wins!
Winner: Josh Woods, by pinfall
Not one ropebreak, not one haymaker, but ALL brutal! Is Woods going to be primed and ready for The Wrestler, Katsuyori Shibata, after WrestleDream?
Backstage interview with The Mogul Embassy.
Lexi Nair is with Prince Nana, and the former ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions, and brings up that tonight, the Gates of Agony in a tag match while Brian Cage is in a singles match. But um, is there a reason Nana is so agitated? Oh, Lexi, you are asking these “spicy” questions! Trying to be funny, huh? No, she’s just doing her job… Nana says she’s talking to the Mogul Embassy. Of course they’re ready for tonight! “You’re looking at two of the most unbelievable tag teams in the history of this stinking company, ROH, and they also happen to be the former Six Man Champions, alright?
“And then you’re talking about a Machine. A Machine that cannot be broken, Mr. Brian Cage. So when you come to me and you ask me these questions, these lollygagging type questions about why I feel a certain way… It’s because the Mogul Embassy is back on track. And it’s gonna start tonight.” Cage adds that Six Man titles or not, they’ve still got the wildest Samoan, two of the most legit African princes, and the largest arms in wrestling! And what they’re sick and tired of is seeing all these smelly, stinkin’ Sloppy Joes go out there week after week while they take a backseat! Not no more, not tonight! That all changes, just like Nana said.
And Nana adds that in the end, everyone knows that the Mogul Embassy IS in the money. Liona roars and the team heads out, will they go from dominating the Trios Division into dominating the Tag AND Singles Divisions?
Tony Nese w/ Mark Sterling VS Scorpio Sky!
We just saw Smart Mark’s other client go all Technical Beast Mode, and now he and the Premier Athlete make their way out. But of course, Mark has Bobby Cruz stop so he can introduce Nese himself, and he hands the mic over. Nese knows Grand Rapids, Michigan knows that he is sure they know he is a world-travelling athlete. But if you were to ask Nese to point out Grand Rapids on a map, he for the life of him would not find it. So here’s a map right here, as he holds up his hand. Point to where it is on the hand map. Some people flip Nese off! Nese ignores that to point to the bottom of the hand, where the thumb connects to the rest.
Nese now understands. He understands that Grand Rapids is the fattest part of Michigan! Yes, boo, we don’t want that. But good news for all of them! We found the root of the problem! Now we’ll do something about it. Instead of a wrestling match, Nese treats us to GROUP TRAINING~! Stand up, you lazy SOBs! Start with stretching! He’s just trying to help! You all talk to- Wait! Here comes Scorpio Sky! After all, Nese said reach for the sky. But will Scorpio have Nese reaching for some oxygen after this in-ring workout?
NO Code of Honor as Nese CLBOBERS Scorpio and fires off in the corner! The fans boo, the ref reprimands but Nese bumps Scorpio off buckles. Nese talks trash, but Scorpio CLOBBERS him in return!

Nese holds ropes, bails out again and fans boo. Nese & Sterling wanna bail on this match? No such luck as Scorpio gets Nese back in! Sterling gets in Scorpio’s face but then backs off. Nese uses the apron skirt to blind Scorpio and then DROPKICK him down! Fans boo but Sterling talks trash. Nese mockingly applauds, then he drags Scorpio up. Nese SMACKS Scorpio off the apron, then whips him at steel steps!
Scorpio writhes and Nese slides back into the ring. Nese distracts the ref so that Sterling can stomp Scorpio! Fans boo but Sterling slithers away. Nese drags Scorpio up as fans chant “YOU SUCK!” Nese knees Scorpio, knees him again, then pretends he doesn’t understand. Nese drags Scorpio up to hoist him up top backwards. Then Nese puts Scorpio in the Tree of Woe, and runs corner to corner, for the ab crunch kicks! Fans boo but Nese soaks up the heat. Scorpio gets out of the Tree, drags himself up with ropes, but Nese stands him up. Fans still say “YOU SUCK!” but Scorpio CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS again!

Fans fire up as Scorpio gets free! Nese grabs at Scorpio, waistlocks, but Scorpio switches to hit a BIG back suplex of his own! Both men are down and fans fire up again. A standing count begins but both men stir. Nese goes to ropes, Scorpio stands at 4 and Nese follows. Scorpio ROCKS Nese, ROCKS him again, then whips. Nese reverses but Scorpio kicks and runs, to knee lift and LARIAT! Fans fire up even more and Scorpio is feeling it! Nese flounders to a corner, Scorpio runs in but Nese dodges.

Big Shotty can’t blame anyone else for this one, he just could not defy Gravity! What will it take for Lee Johnson to be firing on all cylinders? As for Gravity, he is already a star in ROH, but can he make himself into a champion?
Backstage interview with The Outrunners.
Lexi is with Turbo Floyd & Truth Magnum and says we have been seeing a lot of them lately. Tonight, they face the dynamic duo of Darius Martin & Action Andretti, how’re they feeling? Truth says that there’s a lot of talking going around in AEW and ROH about “Who is the best tag team in the world?” Well, they couldn’t care less, cuz what you’re looking at is the best tag team in the UNIVERSE! Tell ’em, Turb! Turbo says Darius & Action think they’re the newest, hottest, biggest and baddest team on the block, but guess what, buds? You’re not! It’s the Outrunners! They’ve got the looks and the guns! And if you ain’t seen the Outrunners, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!
They flex as hard as they can, but can they get the win? Or will Top Flight MK II stay on course for another shot at gold?
Billie Starkz w/ Athena VS Lady Frost!
The “Minion in Training” completed the To Do List, survived the physical training, and has even had her mentor’s back against her opponents. But will she clear the final hurdle that is winning a match of her own? Or will she be left out in the cold upon failing her Fallen Goddess?
The Code of Honor is upheld, but then Frost knees Billie low! Fans boo but Frost dusts herself off. Frost runs but Billie CHOPS! And KNEES! And- NO, Frost ducks the lariat, but Billie tosses her out! Fans rally up and Athena takes notes. She blows her whistle to startle Frost, and Billie builds speed! Billie DIVES to take Frost down at the ramp! Fans cheer and Athena suggests using the steps. The people want it! Fans do cheer, and Billie says okay. Billie brings Frost up, lines up the shot, spins Frost around and around, but then puts Frost in the ring. Fans boo and Billie says she got dizzy. Athena says fine, just stay on the opponent.
Billie hurries in after Frost but Athena shouting keeps distracting her. Frost bails out, Billie goes out the side, but Frost avoids the sweep! And cartwheels over another! PENALTY KICK knocks Billie down! Frost soaks up the heat while Athena coaches Billie up. Frost taunts Athena to help her minion. Frost SMACKS Billie off the apron, CHOPS her, then says that was ice cold. Frost puts Billie in the ring, swaggers around, and she bumps Billie off buckles. Frost CHOPS and Billie sputters.

Winner: Billie Starkz, by pinfall
The Fallen Goddess helps her Minion, and then Billie finishes it herself with Caprice Coleman wants to call “The Starkz Clash.” Wait, Athena goes after Frost for herself now! We all know the Fallen Goddess has a mean streak, and she wants Billie to get on hers! Athena TOSSES Frost out, then invites Billie to hit her, too. Billie says no, the win is enough! Athena says no, the people want violence. So she scoops and SWINGS Frost into railing! The ref says no more, Billie says no more, but fans say “ONE MORE TIME!” So Athena whips Frost hard into more railing! Billie tells Athena stop but Athena puts Frost back in the ring!
Athena sets Frost up with the ROH Women’s World Championship belt, but Billie tells her no! Athena sits Frost up, but Billie moves the belt! Athena sighs and fans boo, but Billie says enough is enough. Athena stares Billie down but Billie doesn’t back off. Athena tells Billie that if this is gonna work, Athena leads and the minion follows! You want the title? Athena is trying to show you what it takes!! Athena lets off and Billie is clearly conflicted. What other lessons will Athena try to teach Billie? Or does Billie simply need to learn how to stand up for herself?
Backstage interview with Allysin Kay.
Lexi is with AK and says tonight she will face Mercedes Martinez, an old rival. How is she feeling going into this match? Allysin says, “How am I feeling, Lexi? How am I feeling!?” Allysin apologizes for yelling, she knows Lexi is a nice person. But Allysin admits that she loves talking trash, it might be what she does best. If you need someone cussed out, she is your girl. But she is also not delusional, and she knows she’s on a losing streak. She hates to admit it but the facts don’t lie. And Allysin also knows Mercedes is a much more experienced veteran than her. But the thing is, win, lose or draw, AK ain’t going down without a fight.
In the end, AK Still Don’t Play! She has put her old rival on notice, will Allysin prove she’s more badass than the OG Badass?
Action Andretti & Darius Martin VS The Outrunners!
We heard from Turbo & Truth, but while their retro style and attitude is a lot of fun, will they be all business here tonight? Or will the Sight to See and Air Wolf prove throwbacks aren’t enough against a team that knows how to #StayReady?
The Code of Honor is not upheld as Truth & Turbo would rather Mega Powers handshake with each other. The teams sort out and Truth starts against Action. They circle at the bell, Truth avoids Action shooting in for a leg, and then the two feel out a knuckle lock. Turbo snags Action, but he gets away and dodges Truth. Truth swings again but Action blocks to wrench and wristlock. Action then ripcords, wrenches, and wrangles Truth to a top wristlock! Fans rally, Truth fights up but Darius tags in. Darius wrenches to arm-drag Truth, then rolls to clinch and ghost pin, ONE! Truth rushes in but into an arm-drag!
Darius wrenches then tags in Action. Action goes up to DOUBLE STOMP the arm! Truth scrambles away and throws a fit, but Turbo wants in to knock Action’s block off! Truth tags Turbo in and Grand Rapids fires up. Turbo flexes and he circles with Action. Action blocks a kick and Turbo apologizes. Action spins Turbo to headlock. Turbo powers up, and pulls hair! The ref reprimands but Turbo headlocks now. Action powers up and out but Turbo runs him over! Turbo hits a homer, then he goes back for Action. Turbo headlocks, but Action powers up and out to step over, La Magistrol, TWO! But Action keeps the arm!
Action wrenches, headlocks, but Turbo powers up to back suplex! But Action lands on his feet to headlock Turbo. Truth runs in but Action back drops him up and over them both! Turbo powers up, Action goes up the corner and he gets Truth, too, HEADSCISSOR HEADLOCK TAKEOVER COMBO! The Outrunners tumble and regroup while Darius hops in, and Team Stay Ready DOUBLE DROPKICK them out! Fans fire up while Darius & Action secret handshake, then DOUBLE PLAN- NO, Truth drags Darius out! Darius is sent into steps! Action kicks Turbo away but Truth trips Action up mid-springboard!

Action stands but Truth DECKS him! Truth drags Action around, runs, and drops a knee! Cover, TWO!
Truth is annoyed, he slaps Action around, then sucker punches- NO, Darius counter punches! But the ref is still distracted with Darius! Turbo fakes a tag and stomps Action. Turbo slashes his throat, drags Action up to CLUB him, then suplexes, for the NECKBREAKER! Fans boo but Turbo points to Truth. Truth calls for Total Recall, probably the original Arnold Schwarzenegger and not the Colin Farrell one. Tag to Truth and Turbo scoops Action. Truth runs but Action slips free to shove Turbo at him! The Outrunners stop themselves and then hurry to get Action’s legs! Action stands to ENZIGURI Truth away, hot tag to Darius!
Darius rallies on the Outrunners! He DECKS Turbo, fires off haymakers on Truth then whips. Truth reverses but Darius hits an atomic drop! Then a BULLDOG HOTSHOT, to a GAMANGIRI! Truth tumbles and fans fire up as Darius goes up, to CROSSBODY! Cover, Turbo breaks it! Fans rally, Turbo whips but Darius TOSSES Turbo out! Action anchors Turbo, Darius DECK Shim! Action goes up to QUEBRADA! Down goes Turbo and Action tags in! Darius has Truth up, atomic drop into a shove, GAMANGIRI, and then SHOTGUN GERMAN SUPLEX!! Truth staggers, Action tags in!
They kick, KICK and BUZZSAW, to then half nelson and a spin. Both men pick Truth up, for the DOUBLE STO!! Cover, Stay Ready wins!
Winners: Action Andretti & Darius Martin, by pinfall
The Outrunners probably won’t want to recall this match. But Action & Darius are on track, will they look to go after whoever are ROH World Tag Team Champions after WrestleDream?
Backstage interview with Griff Garrison.
Lexi is with the Ivy League MVP and says we saw him team with Cole Karter for the very first time. Didn’t go the way they wanted to, but will tonight be any different? But speaking of, Maria Kanellis-Bennett and Cole Karter walk in. Maria asks, “Will it be any different? What was that?” Karter adds, “Yeah, Griff, what was that? You cost me my victory!” Griff tells Karter to shut up. Just do it. And he knows he’s said that the last couple weeks, he felt like he had lost a step. But turns out that’s not true. Griff’s 100%. He just didn’t know how well this was going to go.
But this can work, they all understand that. When Griff first got here, he was just given a partner. And it was going so well, until it wasn’t. And now that guy’s not even here! (He’s talking about Brian Pillman Jr. leaving AEW/ROH) But that could be Griff next, or it could be Karter. They have to make this work, but do it the right way. Maria says okay, they will do it the right way. Karter agrees since Maria agrees, and Lexi says this is a good start. Will Griff be able to go all in on The Kingdom’s Army now that it’s all out in the air?
Leyla Hirsch VS Laynie Luck!
Speaking of The Kingdom’s Army, this is one person who is not giving in to Maria’s recruitment speech. Will Leyla continue to be LEGIT all by herself? Or will Laynie show her that sometimes, all you need is luck?
The Code of Honor is offered by Laynie, and she waits, but then Leyla sees Maria on stage. Maria says go ahead, do it. Leyla KICKS the hand away, and fans boo but Maria likes that. The bell rings, Leyla says go ahead, free shot. Laynie grabs that leg, but Leyla stays up! Leyla then pushes Laynie away, but Laynie fireman’s carries! Leyla slips free, waistlocks, but Laynie elbows and switches. Leyla switches back, Laynie bucks the O’Conner, but Leyla avoids the boot! Laynie mule kicks then runs to BOOT! Laynie suplexes, then kips up! Fans fire up with Laynie and she does a dance, but Leyla is up! Leyla hits a SAIDO!
Laynie staggers up into a GERMAN SUPLEX! Leyla drags Laynie around by her arm, blows a kiss to Maria, and puts on the LEGIT ARMBREAKER! Laynie taps, Leyla wins!
Winner: Leyla Hirsch, by submission
Now that was legit! Maria is still impressed, and it would seem the offer still stands. But Leyla says she’s 11-0, she wants Athena! Will Leyla get the title opportunity she wants without The First Lady of Wrestling helping her?
Backstage interview with Mercedes Martinez & Diamante.
Lexi is with the former ROH Women’s World Champion as well as the Cuban Diamond, and brings up the match with Allysin Kay, someone the OG Badass is very familiar with. How is she feeling ahead of that match? Uh, first off, Lil’ Miss Lex, what’s with bringing up her being a former Women’s World Champion? That’s disrespectful! Do you not know who she is? Let’s get back to business. Yes, Mercedes is facing AK. Yes, they’ve faced off before. Blah blah blah blah. But AK, in ROH, you have been losing! Match after match after match after match. Isn’t she tired of losing yet? But tonight won’t be any different. Pinkies up? Nah, pinkies down!
Shane Taylor w/ Lee Moriarty VS Jimmy Jacobs!
Big Bad Shaney T. wants to be back on top of the company he carried through its darkest days, but he’s also calling out names of ROH’s past! Will the in-ring return of the Big Bully Zombie Princess just be a stepping stone to the top of the mountain for Shane Taylor Promotions?
The Code of Honor is NOT upheld as Shane says Grand Rapids can cheer Jimmy all they want, it ain’t gonna help. Then Shane SHOVES Jimmy down! Fans boo, the bell rings, but Shane says he’s put everyone on notice. But Jimmy SLAPS Shane, throws his coat over Shane’s head, and then fires off haymakers! Shane shoves Jimmy away, runs in but Jimmy sends him into buckles! Jimmy CHOPS, but Shane just snarls. Shane puts Jimmy in a corner to CHOP! And CHOP! Fans rally for Jimmy but Shane whips corner to corner. Jimmy stops himself, comes back to LARIAT! Shane stays up but Jimmy BITES Shane’s forehead!
Moriarty protests but gets away as Jimmy swipes. Shane runs in, Jimmy tosses him out and then DIVES! But Shane catches Jimmy! Only for Jimmy to GUILLOTINE! Fans fire up but Shane stays up, and he RAMS Jimmy into the post! Then Shane SUPLEXES Jimmy away! Jimmy writhes, the ring count is climbing, but Moriarty smiles as Shane puts Jimmy in the ring. Shane stalks Jimmy to a corner, says the fans are just lying to themselves, and then he throws hands on Jimmy. Shane TOSSES Jimmy across the way! Shane talks trash to the fans, runs corner to corner, and he SPLASHES Jimmy! Jimmy leans against Shane but Shane pushes him down.
Shane taunts Jimmy, but Jimmy CHOPS! And CHOPS! And LARIATS! Shane stays up, blocks a kick and HEADBUTTS! Then the URENAGE! Shane runs to SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Jimmy survives and Moriarty is confused. Shane snarls and he tells Jimmy not to listen to his people. But Jimmy stands to fire haymakers! Shane DECKS Jimmy! Jimmy rises, and he fires more haymakers! Shane DECKS Jimmy again and tells him to stay down! Jimmy sits back up and fans fire up behind him! Jimmy fires haymakers but Shane knees low. Shane runs, KICKS Jimmy’s back drop away, but then Jimmy LARIATS Shane down!!
Fans fire up and Jimmy is feeling it! But Shane shoves Jimmy to a corner. Jimmy BOOTS back, goes up, and reels Shane in to TORNADO SNAP SUPLEX! Fans fire up as Jimmy covers, TWO! Shane is in this but fans rally behind Jimmy. Jimmy storms up but Shane JABS him! Shane swings, Jimmy ducks but the SOUTHPAW comes back! Cover, TWO!! Jimmy is still in this but Shane shakes his head. Shane drags Jimmy up and Moriarty says this is what Grand Rapids gets. Shane says this is about O H I O! Shane shoves Jimmy but Jimmy dodges, rolls and SWINGING HEADSCISSORS! Fans fire up as Shane goes tumbling away!
Jimmy runs corner to corner, ducks the lariat, and goes up to FLYING- NO, Shane stops the cutter! But then Jimmy goes up and up, only for Shane to counter the Sliced Bread! WELCOME TO THE LAND! Cover, Shane wins!
Winner: Shane Taylor, by pinfall
Ohio wins as the visiting team as Shane drops Jimmy in his hometown. Will Shane Taylor Promotions be unstoppable until they run ROH?
Backstage interview with Maria Kanellis-Bennett.
Lexi is with the First Lady and brings up Maria bringing Cole Karter and Griff Garrison together as a team, is she excited for this new duo? But then Leyla interrupts, and asks Maria that at this point, doesn’t she feel she needs to be managing “her boys,” since they need her the most? Does Leyla think that? Yeah, she does! She doesn’t get why Maria keeps coming out week after week after week, scouting her. For Leyla, things get messy when others get involved. Like last week, she was just put in a random Six Woman Tag with the Renegades, and look what happens! She does great on her own, and she proved that again.
She is 11-0! Do the people hear her? 11-0! And all without Maria’s help. And throughout the weeks, Maria’s been saying she’s gonna get Leyla more competitive matches, and that Leyla would need Maria to get her title match with Athena. And for some reason in Maria’s deranged mind, she thinks Leyla doesn’t deserve it otherwise. Well good thing the Board of Directors think the opposite. Next week, Leyla has her match with Athena for THE ROH Women’s World Championship. And that is legit. Leyla heads out and Maria sarcastically wishes her luck. Will Leyla become the LEGIT ROH Women’s World Champion even without Maria’s guidance?
Six Man Tag: Dalton Castle & The Boys VS Ren Jones, Trenton Tormenta & Xavier Walker!
Surely, just as we all are, The Peacock & The Tate Twins are aware that we have NEW ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions in Hangman Adam Page & The Young Bucks. Hangman & The Bucks were the trio that dethroned Castle & The Boys way back in 2017, will Castle & The Boys fight their way to a rematch six years in the making? Or will they be caught off guard by three young bucks right here?
The Code of Honor is upheld, though Walker doesn’t let go of Brandon without some force. Castle gets fired up already and the ref has to keep everything sorted out.

He’s on a roll here, and he’s gonna make ROH the greatest company wrestling has ever seen! Will The Peacock get his shot at the ROH World Television Championship? Will he and his Boys get their shot at the ROH World Six Man Tag Championships? Will they soon rule ROH?
Griff Garrison & Cole Karter w/ Maria Kanellis-Bennett VS The Infantry w/ Trish Adora!
The First Lady of Wrestling is building The Kingdom’s Army, and the Ivy League MVP is just trying to make sure they do things the right way. Will the Diamond in the Rough be willing to follow Griff’s lead? Or will Captain Shawn Dean & Carlie Bravo be the only army marching up the ranks in ROH?
The Code of Honor is upheld, and Griff starts against Carlie. They circle, fans rally up, and the two tie up. Griff wrenches, wristlocks, but Carlie rolls, handsprings and pop ‘n’ lock to headlock! Carlie then wrenches to a hammerlock but Griff switches that onto Carlie. Griff ducks an elbow, back suplexes, but Carlie lands on his feet to waistlock. Griff bucks the O’Conner, then he runs Carlie over! Fans cheer as Griff flexes, and things speed up. Carlie hurdles, but Griff turns hip toss into hip toss! Then a BOOT knocks Carlie down! Fans rally while Dean coaches Carlie. Griff drags Carlie up to bump him off buckles.

Winners: Cole Karter & Griff Garrison, by pinfall
The Infantry can’t believe it, but they just got caught! Griff only knows that they won, he doesn’t realize Karter cheated! Is Maria going to get her boys on the same page no matter what? Or will the truth be revealed and ruin the fun?
Backstage with Ethan Page.
Lexi is with All Ego (or is it All Honor now?) and notes he will be in action tonight against Rohit Raju. Lexi says Ethan’s been on a hot streak in ROH, and he likes that. Just last week, she said he got his groove back, and she was right. He feels rejuvenated, a little more All Ego than just Ethan Page. And if he gets this win here tonight, that would be 3-0! Is Lexi okay to say that is a streak? Yes, it is! Then Ethan on a streak will be fantastic, because he has big plans in ROH. Oh did someone say ROH? In walks Rohit Raju, who reminds us you can’t spell his name without R O H. And Lex Express, long time no see!
Rohit hasn’t gotten a call from this place in quite some time, but he saw the door open so he just kinda moseyed on in and made himself at home. Oh hey, Ethan, how you been? Well, thanks for asking the person who was scheduled for an interview how they’re doing. And he’s fantastic. Much better before the interruption. But hey, good for Rohit getting as much screentime as possible. Because Rohit kinda just pissed Ethan off. Tonight, Rohit won’t get any more screentime, because Ethan is gonna kick Rohit’s ass as quickly as possible. Enjoy this moment, close this interview while Ethan goes warm-up for the ass kicking.
Ethan storms off and Rohit asks if Lexi thinks Ethan’s mad. Yeah, a little. Good. Rohit wants to make this his show, but will he go from star to supporting character in the All Ego redemption story?
Allysin Kay VS Mercedes Martinez w/ Diamante!
We’ve heard both these rivals put the other on notice, but the time for talk is over. Actions speak louder than words anyhow, so who is the loudest badass in ROH?
The Code of Honor is barely upheld and the bell rings. Mercedes mocks the pinkies up and such, and the two circle. They tie up, go around, and Mercedes backs Allysin to ropes. The ref counts, Mercedes lets off slowly, and then Diamante swipes at Allysin! The ref tells Diamante to back off but Allysin rushes out after her! Allysin dodges Mercedes’ cheap shot, to then FLAPJACK her off the apron! “Not today, Satan!” Allysin then DECKS Mercedes, and she puts her in the ring. Allysin tells Diamante to back off, then runs in. She avoids the boot to hit a BIG back suplex! Cover, TWO! Mercedes is tougher than that but Allysin keeps on her.
Allysin whips Mercedes to a corner hard, then runs in to SPLASH! Allysin sits Mercedes down, pinkies up and Around the World for- NO, Diamante helps Mercedes bail out. Allysin protests, the ref has her hold on, and he tells Diamante to knock it off, final warning. Diamante helps Mercedes get in the ring, then she taunts Allysin. Allysin gets on the apron, but Diamante anchors her foot! Allysin can’t kick free before Mercedes BLASTS her down! Fans boo as Diamante gets away with another one. Mercedes takes a bow, soaks up the heat, and then waits on the ring count. Allysin crawls and Diamante taunts her.
Mercedes goes out to kick Allysin, UPPERCUT her, and follow her to the barriers. Mercedes UPPERCUTS again, shakes out her hand from hitting that hard, and then taunts the fans. Another UPPERCUT, “just for you!” Mercedes puts Allysin back in the ring, stalks her to a corner, and stomps a mudhole in! The ref counts, Mercedes lets off at 4, and she argues with the ref so Diamante can sucker punch Allysin! Mercedes drags Allysin up but Allysin throws body shots! Mercedes UPPERCUTS again! Diamante taunts Allysin, Mercedes puts Allysin in the corner and UPPERCUTS again! Mercedes then runs to forearm smash!
Mercedes goes side to side to BOOT! Mercedes swaggers, runs side to side again, and DROPKICKS! Fans boo but Mercedes just soaks up the heat. Diamante says that’s it right there! Mercedes drags Allysin as fans rally for “PINKIE’S UP!” Mercedes fireman’s carries but Allysin slips free to GERMAN SUPLEX! Fans fire up as Allysin pounds the mat. Allysin sees Mercedes stand, then runs in to LARIAT! And ELBOW! Allysin then spins Mercedes to a wristlock and NECKBREAKER! Diamante gets on the apron to talk trash but Allysin BOOTS her down! Allysin puts Mercedes in the corner, runs in but only gets buckles!
Mercedes CLUBS Allysin, Electric Chair Lifts to tuck her in, CHEEKY NANDOS! Allysin tumbles to the apron and then the floor while fans boo. Mercedes distracts the ref talking about sore this and that, and Diamante hits a WHEELBARROW STUNNER! Diamante puts Allysin in for Mercedes, and she KNEES Allysin down! But Mercedes isn’t done, she fisherman’s for the BUSTER! Cover, Mercedes wins!
Winner: Mercedes Martinez, by pinfall
An unofficial handicap match brings Allysin down for another loss, and Mercedes continues to mock the pinkies up. Is the former ROH Women’s World Champion going to go right for that gold after we see Athena VS Leyla?
Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.
Lexi the Minion Bestie congratulates her minion buddy about her epic return to action. Thanks so much, Lexi! Billie is so happy to do this all on her own! Um, actually, Athena kinda pulled her out of that pin near the end there. W-What? Athena being ringside, she reached in and- Athena walks up and Lexi stops talking. Athena asks if Minion Number 2 has something to say. No… Oh, okay, because it looked like she didn’t like how Athena handled business after that match. Nope. So then what does Billie have to say for herself? Billie won! Oh no no no, that is not what they do. They win at all costs, then deter any porcelain hussy who thinks they can step to them in the future!
If Billie doesn’t understand that, then maybe she needs more training! Billie is young and stupid, and everyone will step all over her. Athena and Bestie are just trying to bring Billie outta the gutter. But y’know what, maybe Billie needs a firsthand example. She’ll get a front row seat. Next week, Athena VS Leyla, Athena will set an example for the family. Athena storms off, Lexi apologizes but Billie is almost in tears as she leaves in the other direction. Will the Fallen Goddess prove who is truly LEGIT? Or is this all going to fall apart around her?
The Gates of Agony w/ Prince Nana VS The Iron Savages w/ Jacked Jameson!
Toa Liona & Bishop Kaun are enraged, wanting to take out their anger from that loss to the Hung Bucks on anyone that steps to them! And they already know they can beat Dirty Bulk Bronson & Beefcake Boulder from their Six Man Tag showdown. Will the Mogul Embassy slam the gates shut on the Savage Sanctuary? Or will this be when the beefy and bulky, jacked and juicy giants get that signature win?
The Code of Honor is offered, but Kaun just SHOTGUNS Bronson! The bell rings, Bronson stays up but Kaun hits a POWERSLAM! And a SPLASH! Kaun fires off hands, the ref reprimands, but Kaun stomps Bronson! Fans fire up as Kaun CLUBS Bronson! Kaun whips, drops, then swings but Bronson dodges to run Kaun over! Bronson clinches to EXPLODER! Kaun tumbles, Bronson fires up and he brings Kaun up. Kaun gets away, Liona storms in but Boulder backs Bronson up. The ref has things calm down, and everyone falls back. Bronson and Kaun tag out, fans fire up for “BEEF! BEEF! BEEF!” as he meets Liona.
Liona runs in to RAM shoulders with Boulder but neither falls! They RAM again, and again, and again! This is big men slappin’ meat and fans fire up! Liona LARIATS but Boulder LARIATS! They go shot for shot, Liona gets the edge and then fires up, but Boulder dodges to BLAST Kaun! Liona roars, so does Boulder, and they RAM shoulders again! Liona grabs the beard, but Boulder CLUBS the arms! Liona CLUBS the fireman’s carry, whips, but Boulder reverses to TOSS Liona out! Fans fire up and Boulder throws off the headband! Tag to Bronson as he builds speed!? Boulder DIVES but has to bail out as Kaun saves Liona!
Kaun whips Liona in and Liona CLOBBERS Boulder! But wait, Bronson builds speed!? Bronson DIVES, but the Gates catch him! DOUBLE SCOOP SLAM to the ramp! And then they run Boulder over! How are there no craters at ringside!? Liona goes back into the ring and fans rally up. The ring count climbs but Liona tags Kaun. Kaun fetches Bronson, throws down fists, and then runs to SENTON! Bronson sputters but Kaun pushes him to a cover, TWO! Kaun looms over Bronson, drags him up, and he tags in Liona. They RAM Bronson in the corner, then Kaun goes up so they can mug Bronson!
The ref counts, the Gates let off at 4, but Kaun still CHOKES Bronson against ropes! The ref reprimands, Kaun lets off, and Jameson rallies the fans for Bronson. Liona drags Bronson up, but Bronson throws hands! Liona HEADBUTTS Bronson down! Tag to Kaun, fans continue to rally, but the Gates double whip. Kaun runs in but into BOOTS! Bronson goes up to CROSSBODY! Both men are down and fans fire up! Bronson and Kaun crawl, Kaun anchors Bronson’s foot! Bronson kicks Kaun away, hot tag to Boulder!

Boulder scoops Kaun, Kaun slips free, tag to Liona. Boulder still hits a SIDEWALK SLAM on Kaun! Liona gets in to throat chop! Fans boo, the ref reprimands, but Boulder whips. Liona ducks ‘n’ dodges, but leaps into a scoop! Nana freaks out and Liona fights, but Boulder still POWERSLAMS! The straps come down and fans fire up for all that raw beef! Tag to Boulder and Boulder goes up! Time to motorboat! Wait what? SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!! Bronson BOOTS Liona down, and the Savages say it’s time to go up! Boulder climbs, Kaun runs in to SHOVE him down!! Bronson SPLASHES Kaun, and he’s gonna sip that Savage Sauce!
But Nana steals the sauce from Jameson! Nana says that’s HIS sauce now! Nana opens the cap and takes a sip, but then Jameson chases him! Liona POUNCES Jameson! Kaun storms on Bronson to fireman’s carry and GUT BUSTER DROP! Liona storms in, he and Kaun drag Bronson up, and Nana says do it! OPEN THE GATES!! Cover, the Gates win!
Winners: The Gates of Agony, by pinfall
Nana’s promise is halfway fulfilled as Kaun & Liona keep their ROH 2v2 streak going! These behemoths will be waiting to see if MJF survives The Righteous on Sunday, will the Gates get winners?
Ethan Page VS Rohit Raju!
All Ego is slowly getting back to himself, and he’s looking to take one more step towards title opportunities! Will the Mad Dragon of Michigan wish he hadn’t fired Ethan up? Or will he use Ethan’s own aspirations against him?
The Code of Honor is upheld, but then Rohit kicks low! Fans boo but Rohit ROCKS Ethan, then kicks him again. Rohit whips, Ethan blocks, so Rohit tries again. Ethan still blocks, reels Rohit in to scoop, but Rohit slips out. Ethan bucks the O’Conner and he runs Rohit right over! Fans fire up and Ethan drags Rohit up. Ethan ROCKS Rohit and then whips, to then run Rohit over again! Ethan suplexes as fans fire up, and he holds Rohit up and even marches around! After a count of TEN, it’s the SLAM! Ethan grins and fans cheer. Ethan brings Rohit up but Rohit fires off fast hands! Ethan ducks the buzzsaw to clinch! COBRA CLUTCH SLAM!
Ethan says now he’s done with Rohit! Canadian Rack, but Rohit fights free! Rohit BOOTS Ethan, runs in, but into a scoop! Rohit tilt-o-whirls free to TWIST ‘N’ SHOUT! Rohit then runs to forearm smash! And then BOOT! Rohit fires up and he runs back in, but into a BOOT!! Ethan doesn’t stop there, he goes out to step back in, “GOOD NIGHT, ROHIT!” HEADSHOT CUTTER! Cover, Ethan wins!
Winner: Ethan Page, by pinfall
It was maybe a longer match than Ethan promised, but it was still pretty quick. Ethan shakes Rohit’s hand to keep the Code of Honor, will Ethan keep up this momentum until he is a champion in ROH?
Brian Cage w/ Prince Nana VS Metalik!
Time for part two of the Nana’s promise! Will The Machine prove he cannot be stopped? Or will the King of Ropes finally answer, “Who betta?”
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the two circle. Fans rally as Cage and Metalik tie up. They go around, Cage throws Metalik to a corner, and he asks, “Who betta than Cage?” Nana says nobody, and then Cage runs in, only for Metalik to dodge. Metalik comes back, Cage puts him on the apron, but Metalik GAMANGIRIS! Cage staggers, Metalik goes up and tightrope walks to CROSSBODY! But Cage catches him, pop shim up, but Metalik slips free. Cage elbows Metalik, whips, but Metalik handsprings! Cage dodges, Metalik dodges, and Metalik tilt-o-whirls Cage outta the ring!
Fans rally up and Metalik aims to PLANCHA, but has to land out as Cage moves.

Cage storms up on Metalik, ROCKS him and RAMS him in the corner, then RAMS him again! The ref counts, Cage lets off to whip corner to corner, then he starts up a Terminator clap.

Cage lifts Metalik, but Metalik slips free to CHOP! Metalik ducks lariat after lariat, rolls back but Cage scoops to a DRILL CLAW!! Cover, Cage wins!
Winner: Brian Cage, by pinfall
Nana is very, very relieved that he doesn’t look foolish in the end. The Machine continues to be unstoppable in 1v1 action here in ROH, will that earn him a shot at any title he chooses after WrestleDream?
My Thoughts:
A solid episode for ROH, but it was two hours this time because of how AEW has a PPV this weekend. Which makes sense this week since WrestleDream is featuring quite a few ROH titles. Eddie Kingston VS Katsuyori Shibata is for both the NJPW Strong Openweight and ROH World Championship, and is a match of ROH World Champ VS ROH Pure Champ. As I’ve said before, I don’t see Eddie losing, he just got the ROH World title, and after another win from Josh Woods, it would seem we’ve got Shibata VS Woods one more time on the schedule. And at the same time, Eddie still has to even show up on ROH TV as world champ, he has any number of possible feuds going towards like Final Battle in December.
MJF VS The Righteous may be 2v1 because of Adam Cole’s injury, but with the larger story of MJF, Cole, Roddy and The Kingdom, I could see MJF still retaining. He could even use Champions Advantage if he has to. But we got great tag matches tonight to build up more contenders from within ROH. Speaking of which, great matches out of The Mogul Embassy, all members being obvious choices to challenge the top champions of ROH. Now, Cage VS Eddie would be great stuff, but I don’t know where Kaun & Liona fit into the tag title scene with MJF still attached to them.
Great stuff from Ethan Page in a match that came outta nowhere, but that’s how a lot of these longer ROH episodes end up, and it is starting to wear thin for me. Also interesting to see Scorpio here in ROH after AEW was seemingly getting him going again. Really good stuff out of the technically filler match of Gravity VS Johnson, and I like Ian Riccaboni’s questioning if Gravity and Bandido are rly brothers. one is from space, the other is a cowboy. and then Caprice brings in the genius idea to make them the tag team known as Space Cowboys. Great return match for Jimmy Jacobs, but of course he loses to Shane Taylor, who is busy building himself up for the eventual match with Keith Lee.
Very good promo from The Outrunners, but I figured they’d lose to Action & Darius. Another fun Six Man match and win from Castle & The Boys, but I’m a little confused as to why Castle dropped a knee on Walker after hitting Bangarang. And I feel like Castle needs the blowoff with Samoa Joe here as Joe approaches the ROH World TV Championship single-reign record. Y’know, make it the parallel to WWE’s Gunther VS Chad Gable, where Castle gets one last chance to stop Joe from making history, puts on a top level match, but just falls short. And while outta nowhere, Mercedes VS Allysin had really good promos and a really good match to keep their rivalry going while Mercedes builds herself back up towards the title.
Speaking of which, really good stuff from Athena and Billie tonight. Billie has a really good match with Frost, Athena helps her get a win, and Billie is impressive with her character work though she’s just 18. And on the side, Leyla of course wins her match, and she of course puts Maria in her place while getting her shot at Athena. These stories intersecting is going to make for a very good title match, because I feel like Maria and Billie could both get involved in their own ways. I’m still going to lean towards Athena retaining so that she and Billie can have a title match as master VS apprentice or something like that.
And speaking of Maria’s little Kingdom Junior project, really good stuff out of them, too. I like Griff standing up for himself in the backstage promo, but it was also clever for the team to still cheat and win in a way that Griff completely misses. In the same way Lexi told Billie what really happened, I bet Griff sees what really happened by watching this episode back, and he confronts them. Just as Billie could/should stand up to Athena and has a match with her, Griff should stand up to Maria and Karter and they have a match. And this is probably just me, but I still like the idea of Griff outshining Karter and Maria dumps Karter to keep the winner.
My Score: 8.4/10

MJF arrives backstage.
Renee Paquette is there to bring up tonight’s main event is Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita for the AEW World Championship. If Darby Allin wins, MJF will then have to sign a contract for Title VS Hair at Double or Nothing. Darby has made it clear that if MJF doesn’t sign said contract, Darby will never allow MJF to face him for the title again. We all know how important the title is for MJF, but is MJF willing to put his hair on the line for it? MJF just chuckles and moves on, but he notices the very bald Rick Knox, Bryce Remsburg, and the head of security, David Aponte. And then various bald members of the production staff…
And then even Christopher Daniels & Sonjay Dutt are there! Daniels and Sonjay chuckle before moving on, and then MJF sees John Silver flexing. Brandon Cutler, some arena staff, and even Tommaso Ciampa, all bald. Then last but certainly not least, Ricochet! He tells MJF that don’t worry, he’ll look great. Just not as good as Ricochet. AHA~! MJF storms off, will he have no choice but to choose between gold belt and chrome dome?
10 Man Tag: Orange Cassidy, Adam Copeland, Christian Cage & The Young Bucks VS Tommaso Ciampa, David Finlay, Clark Connors & FTR w/ Stokely Hathaway!
While we know the AEW World Tag Team Championship match will be a conglomeration of I Quit Match and New York Street Fight, THE Conglomeration will be waiting on the other side for their own tag title match. And let’s not forget that Matt & Nick Jackson want their own shot at those titles again. With that, can Freshly Squeezed work together with C&C and The Bucks? Or will the Psycho Killer, the Dogs, and the Top Guys all stand tall on the road to Double or Nothing?
The teams sort out and the teams just brawl it out! The fans cheer as The Bucks have The Dogs, Cope is after Ciampa, Christian is after Cash, and Dax brawls with Cassidy! Dax bumps Cassidy off buckles but Cassidy ducks the haymaker to waistlock. The Bucks, Cope & Christian clear everyone else out, then take the brawl outside! Dax ROCKS Cassidy to send him out, and the fans fire up as Matt fires hands on 100 Proof right by commentary! Ciampa whips Cope but Cope reverses, sending Ciampa into barriers!

Will Ospreay continues to train with The Death Riders.
They’re outside this time, Claudio Castagnoli playing some wall ball with Marina Shafir and Pac. Daniel Garcia says, “Tonight is the night that we’ve all been waiting for: The Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay, is cleared and back on Dynamite. And rumor has it, the kid’s been working real hard and he’s got some new tricks up his sleeves. So Young Boy Billy, tonight you gotta show me something, c’mon.” Garcia gets a quick turn in on wall ball while cameras move over. Ospreay is maintaining a neck bridge while Jon Moxley uses Wheeler Yuta as a living dummy to show just how to push and pull and bend and twist on the various chinlocks and headlocks.
Use the right arm to push against the head, then snake in the left arm for the sleeper. Pry and shoot. Moxley asks how Ospreay feels. Ospreay lets off the bridge and says honestly, the best he’s felt in forever. Moxley asks if Ospreay remembers the night he won the Best of the Super Juniors. Yeah, 2019. AKA a lifetime ago. Ospreay was carefree, flew like a bird, for no other reason than that’s just what birds do. So simple back then, chasing that feeling, like no other feeling in the world. Can’t really grab it in your hands for more than a few seconds. The joy of doing it. Then everybody comes in and tries to make it so overcomplicated.
Years pass, life happens, a family starts, responsibilities show up, bad things happen, bad choices catch up to you, and it’s all weight on your shoulders. You feel like you can’t fly. But Moxley will tell you something: Nothing is different. Nothing has changed. All those things are still gonna be there, but you can still fly. You’re just more dangerous now. You’re a bird of prey. So tonight, when you got out there, don’t go out there to protect anything. Not your neck, your image, your reputation, or what you’ve built in your career. Go out there to give something. Moxley checks on Yuta and says dammit, if you’re gonna snap a headlock, snap the headlock!
Moxley storms off to instruct his pupil, but will Ospreay use everything he has been taught to great effect? Or will he have to fold against Ace Austin?
Chris Jericho speaks.
“You wanna face Jericho in a match of my own design, Ricochet? A spectacle so innovative, so imaginative, it cannot be contained, it can only be witnessed. Well, be careful what you demand, because you’ve made a few enemies yourself, Ricochet. And now a match designed specifically to settle scores without any, and I mean AAANY~, limitations has gotten even bigger.” Chris Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate were just looking for two more, but “Jungle” Jack Perry said he can bring four: himself, The Young Bucks, and KENNY OMEGA! Jericho tells Ricochet that this is no longer what he designed, but it is a devil’s dance of destruction! Ricochet’s destruction!
Ricochet got what he wanted, now can he handle it? Bald. The first-ever SEVEN VS SEVEN Stadium Stampede, who will even survive?
Ricochet & The Demand respond.
They stand with Mark Davis of the Don Callis Family and Ricochet says we all know Jericho does a lot of talking out of his ass while The Demand gets things done. Just like Davis did when he defeated Jack for the AEW National Championship at Fairway to Hell. Hold it with pride, Davis, Ricochet knows you’ll do it well. Davis says he’s got this. Ricochet says Davis has joined the dream team, but he’s not the only one. Because compliments to Ricochet’s golfing buddy, Don Callis, look who else he’s sending: Andrade El Idolo! Gracias, amigo. But it doesn’t stop there, the train keeps rolling. Ricochet was just approached by two guys who have an ax to grind with the superkick sidekicks.
These two wanna fill out the last two spots, so who is Ricochet to say no to The Dogs? Finlay & Connors storm in, and Finlay says to put it simple, they will fight The Bucks in the streets, in the ring, but guess it’s fighting at Double or Nothing! If they want violence, if they want carnage, if they want chaos, who better than The Dogs?! The Dogs bark and Liona roars, but will these seven stand tall in the Big Apple?
“Speedball” Mike Bailey w/ Kevin Knight VS BK Westbrook!
JetSpeed has a lot of momentum on their side, and as stated last week at Fairway to Hell, they’re looking to grab up all the gold they can. Will Speedball keep on rolling towards his own golden opportunity? Or will #Supastud prove his own worth?

Bailey stays on his feet, then steps over to sit down on a cover, TWO! Westbrook ducks a Penalty Kick, avoids the moonsault, and the sweep! Bailey dodges, Westbrook tiger feints through the ropes, but Bailey handsprings up and over! The fans fire up as Bailey ducks an elbow to whip.

AEW reveals the Men’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament Brackets!
This year’s tournaments will go through Double or Nothing, and the finals will coincide with Forbidden Door 2026 on Sunday, June 28th in San Jose, California! The winner of each tournament will then challenge for THE AEW World Championship and AEW Women’s World Championships on August 30th at All In: London! And so, for the opening round, it will be: “Jungle” Jack Perry VS Mark Davis; Claudio Castagnoli VS Brody King; then Double or Nothing has both Samoa Joe VS Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland VS Bandido!
“Jungle” Jack Perry speaks.
“Mark Davis… I’m sure you feel some congratulations are in order. But you’re not champion to me. You see, you’re built like an Australia grizzly bear, yet you still needed somebody to hit me in the back with a golf club for you to beat me. At Stadium Stampede, bring your friends, bring any weapon you want, and I will crack you over the skull with it. Because anything goes. But after that, it’s back to grass roots, because it is you and me, fighting for a shot at the world title at All In: London. And in the Owen Hart Tournament, I will prove to you beyond a shadow of a doubt that I’m a better wrestler than you. I am the FUTURE world champion!
“And if you don’t like that, F YOU!” Jungle Jack is sharpening his knife, but will his edge be razor sharp when it comes time to cut down Dunkzilla?

Winner: Will Ospreay, by submission
That might’ve been Ospreay’s first win by submission ever! He signals that his neck is no longer a problem, and he shows Ace respect for that fight. Ace accepts the handshake again, and Ospreay is moving on towards Double or Nothing with a great amount of momentum. But wait! SAMOA JOE is here! He and The Opps walk out on stage, and with mic in hand, Joe says, “Ospreay, Ospreay… OSPREAY, OSPREAY!” Joe is clearly mocking the chants for Ospreay, and the fans give genuine chanting and even singing in return. Joe says he just wanted to make sure Ospreay was listening, because these past few weeks, it seemed like Ospreay had a hard time hearing him.
Despite Ospreay’s best efforts, fate has put them on a collision course in the opening round of the Owen Hart Cup. The fans like the sound of that! Joe say she is here for one reason and one reason alone. He wants to speak about choices and consequences. Ospreay could’ve made the right choice and get a bye in this tournament, because that is what Joe would do for one of his friends. But Ospreay chose poorly. He could’ve been with the team that would do nothing but support and enhance Ospreay, but he decided to be a lapdog for Moxley and the Death Riders. The fans boo, Ospreay says he’s not a Death Rider.
Joe says Ospreay has made his choice, and come Double or Nothing, Joe makes Ospreay suffer the consequences. But Joe leaves Ospreay in peace tonight, for he has his date with destiny. But unfortunately, Joe’s friends, Katsuyori Shibata & Anthony Bowens, still feel slighted, and he doesn’t put leashes on his friends. Shibata & Bowens storm down the ramp, Ospreay ready to fight them both if he has to. But then The Death Riders appear! Ospreay may not have officially joined the club, but the Death Riders aren’t going to let their investment go to waste! The Opps say they’re #NeverLacking, but that doesn’t seem to be the case now!
Shibata & Bowens back down while Moxley, Marina, Claudio, Yuta, Garcia & Pac all step up to support Ospreay. Joe says, “Soon. Soon.” The fans cheer the Death Riders, or at least Moxley, but Bowens promises Joe is gonna kill you, Ospreay! The dream match for Double or Nothing is on, but will the training with The Death Riders make Ospreay the new King of Harts?
BREAKING NEWS for next week!
If you liked last week’s THREE HOUR block of AEW, then you’ll love this next one! Portland, Maine, the last Wednesday before Double or Nothing, Dynamite & Collision are combining forces again! Three hours all on TBS and HBO Max, make sure your DVR is set accordingly!
Backstage interview with Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita.
Renee is now with The Invisible Hand & The Alpha, saying tonight is a huge opportunity in the main event, Konosuke facing Darby Allin for THE AEW World Championship. Konosuke could be heading into Double or Nothing as a- Callis stops Renee there to say Konosuke will be heading into Double or Nothing as a DOUBLE champion! But then MJF steps in, apologizes for the interruption but says Renee’s doing a great job. The Scumbag tells Konosuke that while it’s been a minute since the two of them have talked, three years actually, back when MJF beat him… MJF has seen Konosuke develop into truly one of the best wrestlers in the world!
MJF believes that tonight, Konosuke beats Darby for the title, goes to DON to beat Okada, and MJF can’t think of a better match than Konosuke VS MJF Part 2 for the world title. How’s that sound? MJF offers a handshake, Konosuke shakes his hand, but in Japanese, Konosuke tells MJF that he’ll beat the crap out of him. Thankfully, MJF doesn’t know Japanese. Callis says that was a nice pep talk MJF just gave, and MJF says yes, he knows. That kid needs to win, okay? MJF can’t let Darby turn him into some disgusting, bald freak! No offense, Callis looks great. But look, there is only one foolproof way to know MJF won’t be put in that situation.
So if things get hairy… MJF hands over the Dynamite Diamond Ring! Callis smiles, and say she understands what to do with it. But then in steps Andrade. El Idolo takes off his hat to shake out his amazing head of hair, and smiles at MJF. MJF frowns and leaves. Callis says here’s the deal: Takeshita will bring the world title home to the Don Callis Family tonight! Andrade asks, “How you know?” Callis says aye dios mio, he seriously doesn’t know where Andrade learned English. Andrade says one way or another, the next time, that will be HIS title. Callis says yes, he knows, it’s all good. Callis is a man of many talents, but will his family be dripping with gold thanks to a diamond ring?
AEW now announces the Women’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament brackets!
Double or Nothing will see Willow Nightingale, the reigning Queen of Harts, take on Alex Windsor, while we will see Persephone VS Hazuki, Skye Blue vs Sareee, and Mina Shirakawa VS Athena! Champions from around the world are gathering for this tournament, but who will be headed to Forbidden Door, and then All In: London?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Renee Paquette is now with Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong, and Willow Nightingale. Renee commends Cassidy on his part in the 10 Man Tag victory. But it seems that there is even more business to attend to. Cassidy says yes, the team has a shot at THE AEW World Tag Team Championships. It doesn’t matter who it is, they’re getting their shot, but the thing is… They still haven’t decided on which two will be. Kyle says Cassidy & Roddy should go for the gold, but Roddy shouts, “KYYYLE~! Thank you.” Kyle says of course. But that’s cuz he’s got gold to chase for himself!
The same man that put Kyle on the shelf for months is the man that Kyle submitted twice, and will submit again. Jon Moxley, Continental Champion, when are we doing this? Willow says speaking of gold, she is still the TBS Champion. But she is also in the Owen Hart Cup. She won this tournament before, she’ll do it all over again, so that she can have all the gold for herself at All In: London. She knows she can, and she will! Then Conglomeration has it all in order? Cassidy says hold on, there’s something missing. They should do a Word of the Day. Why haven’t they done one in so long? Roddy shouts for “MAAARK~!” And yes, Mark Briscoe returns!
The Sussex County Chicken is all fired up, and he says the Word of the day is reunification! For Mark Briscoe is back with his boys and his girls, The Conglomeration! But he’ll put this plain and simple: Tommaso Ciampa! Next Wednesday, Briscoe’s after your ass, son! You hear him? But before that, Saturday Night Collision is in HIS hometown, Salisbury, Maryland! That’s just 4.4 miles from where Briscoe originated on this earth! They’re gonna conglomerate and it’s gonna be a a hell of a time! Are you ready!? Willow and Kyle are fired up, Briscoe goes wild, and the team heads out. Cassidy admits, that was a lot of yelling.
But while The Conglomeration is ready to go Double or Nothing, will they soon have even more gold in the collection? Or are these high and lofty a little too much even for them?
Six Woman Tag: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds VS The Triangle of Madness!
With the news of both the AEW Women’s World Championship Fatal 4 Way for Double or Nothing, and the Owen Hart Cup brackets, this trios match is about much more than just settling scores! Will the Shining Samurai be just as sharp as Jamie Hayter going into that title match? Or will Thekla, Skye Blue & Julia Hart continue to bring them down by any means necessary?
The trios sort out and Jamie steps up against Thekla as both a rematch from their 1v1 title match, and a preview of what’s to come in the next. They circle, but then Skye CLOBBERS Jamie! Julia steps in, but so do Shida and Windsor! The Triangle throws hands on Shida & The Birds, then triple whip. But all three reverse, a BOOT for Thekla, a DDT for Skye, and a BACKBREAKER for Julia! The fans cheer as The Triangle bails out! Shida goes out to keep after Skye while Windsor goes after Julia. Jamie gets Thekla back in the ring while Shida and Windsor have the Sisters of Sin in the corners of the barriers. The fans cheer as they all rain down fists!
Windsor, Jamie & Shida all go to nine, then wind up for TEN! The fans cheer again while Thekla sputters. Jamie snap suplexes, but Skye ROCKS Shida! Jamie stomps Thekla, Windsor SLAMS Julia off barriers, and Jamie stomps a mudhole in the corner. The ref counts, Jamie lets off, but Skye and Windsor meet while tightrope walking the barriers! Skye and Windsor trade shots, they wobble a bit, then Skye DECKS Windsor! Skye keeps from falling into the crowd, but Jamie gets her! Windsor joins in and the Birds double gorilla press, SNAKE EYES off the apron! The fans fire up, but Thekla is up top! SUPER CROSSBODY onto The Birds!
The fans fire up again and Thekla is feeling it while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Thekla stomps Windsor, CLUBS Jamie, then helps Skye. But Shida runs up, only for Thekla to ELBOW her down! The Triangle has control again, they ROCK Jamie and Shida and Windsor, then send them all to the desk. The Triangle CHOP again and again and again! Then they wind up, but feint chops to SMACK all three off the apron! The Triangle soaks up the cheers and jeers before putting Jamie back in the ring. Thekla brings Jamie up, snapmares her down, then basement SUPERKICKS! Cocky cover, TWO! Thekla drags Jamie to the corner, tags Julia, and Julia runs up to LARIAT! Then she goes side to side to ELBOW Jamie down!
Julia snapmares Jamie to a cover, TWO! Julia is annoyed but she rains down fists. The ref reprimands, Julia stops, but then she sucker punches Windsor! And Shida, too! Julia then drags Jamie over, bumps her off buckles, and tags in Skye. Skye stomps Jamie around, then digs her boot in! The ref counts, Skye stops at 4, then she brings Jamie up. Jamie fires forearms and CHOPS, but Skye THROWS Jamie down by her hair! The ref reprimands again but Skye rains down forearms. Skye snapmares Jamie, mule kicks her, then covers, TWO! Skye frowns but she stomps Jamie down. Skye tags Julia while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Skye whips Jamie into Julia’s grasp, and Skye BLASTS Shida & Windsor while Julia tags Thekla. Julia has Jamie in the TARANTULA, and Skye sends Windsor in for Thekla’s HANGING HEADSCISSORS! Skye runs up to DOUBLE SHOTGUN The Birds! The fans are torn but Thekla says that’s how the Triangle does it, baby! Thekla then aims to MISSILE- NO, Jamie gest under! Thekla lands out, but Jamie BOOTS her down! Jamie looks at Shida, Shida is hesitant, but Shida tags in! The fans cheer as Shida sends Theknla to the corner, then JUMP KNEES! Shida keeps moving, she BLASTS Skye! Julia ROCKS Shida back!
Julia storms in but Shida kicks her and whips her into Thekla! Shida KNEES them both in the corner! Then Shida puts Thekla sideways in the corner, reels Julia in, and she snap suplexes Julia into Thekla! The fans fire up as Shida then suplexes Thekla high and hard! Cover, TWO! Shida stands Thekla up, Thekla swings but Shida ROCKS her first! And ROCKS her again! Thekla wobbles, swings, but Shida catches Thekla for another forearm! Shida runs the ropes but Thekla mule kicks! Thekla SMACKS Shida, then she dodges a boot to DECK Shida! Thekla talks trash on Shida, then drags her up to tag in Julia.
Julia tags Skye, then tag back to Thekla. The Sisters of Sin hit the DOUBLE GOURD BUSTER and DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Thekla hits the bridge, and she aims for the SPIDER SPEAR! Cover, but The Birds CLOBBER The Sisters of Sin onto it! The fans fire up a Windsor DECKS Skye and Jamie HEADBUTTS Julia! The Birds drag Shida to safety, Windsor tags in, and she CLOBBERS Thekla! Windsor CLUBS away, then fires the fans up. Jamie steps in, BOOT RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP COMBO! Basement LARIAT! And then Windsor lifts! Jamie runs up, but Skye trips Jamie! The fans boo but Skye sends Jamie into steel steps!
Thekla sends Windsor into buckles! Tag to Julia before Shida runs up, TAMASHII KNEE on Thekla! Skye SUPERKICKS Shida! Jamie is back to clinch and HAYTBREAKER! Julia runs up, slips around, SOLE FOOD! Julia kips up, but Windsor is there to whip Julia to ropes! Skye tags in before the SPINEBUSTER! Skye SUPERKICKS Windsor, then brings her up! Skye hops on, CODE- NO, Windsor pops free! Skye SUPERKICKS again, but Windsor HEADBUTTS! The fans fire up as Jamie joins in again, and they DOUBLE LARIAT SANDWICH! Then they set Skye up, and Jamie says let’s try this again!
Jamie runs the ropes, but Thekla slides in, BELT SHOT on Jamie!! No question that the ref saw that! The Triangle is disqualified!
Winners: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds, by disqualification
The Toxic Spider doesn’t care about this win, she just wants to do damage! Skye gets Windsor in a DRAGON SLEEPER! The ref stops Thekla from sing the title belt again, so Thekla just takes off her own belt! And she LASHES Windsor while Skye holds her down! More refs rush out here, but Julia MISTS the newbie in the face! Julia stomps away on Jamie, not caring about fines or consequences, either! The fans boo, and Shida is bailing on the Birds? Shida cares more about her chances in that Fatal 4 Way than anything else. But then Willow, Mina, and even Thunder Rosa rush out here! They chase The Triangle off with belts of their own!
The fans cheer as The Babe, the Fighting Gravure Idol & La Mera Mera save the day. But will Jamie make sure Thekla and Shida pay for this at Double or Nothing?
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita!
They say “card subject to change,” and that is true even for the best in the world. Kazuchika Okada’s real family takes priority, but his Don Callis Family brother was more than happy to step up for this opportunity. Will The Alpha already have two belts by the time he and The Rainmaker battle over the International Championship? Or will Darby truly be relentless in his pursuit of being the best fighting champion in AEW history?
The introductions are made, THE belt is raised, and we see who goes to Double or Nothing on top!
Callis joins commentary to say that while Darby’s been breaking his own body, Konosuke has perfected “rejuvenation training,” aka relaxing on a beach and sipping sake! The bell rings, and Darby SHOTGUNS Konosuke out! Then Darby DIVES, but Konosuke catches him! Konosuke POSTS Darby, then THROWS him into railing! Konosuke THROWS Darby into the ring, the fans fire up for both guys, and Konosuke hurries to BOOT Darby off the apron! Darby falls in front of commentary but Konosuke gets him right back in the ring. Cover, ONE!! The fans rally as Darby shows his grit, but Konosuke snarls.
Konosuke drags Darby up, Darby fires forearms, but the ALPHA ELBOW knocks Darby down! The fans fire up while Konosuke looms over Darby. Konosuke stands Darby up, and THROWS him into a corner! Darby bounces off the buckles and is bleeding from the mouth already! Konosuke stands Darby up, hoists him up top, then he climbs up after him. But Darby BITES Konosuke, CLUBS him down, and leaps for a CROSSBODY, but he bounces off Konosuke! The fans fire up again as Konosuke whips Darby for a BACKDROP! Darby got serious hangtime there, and he flounders out of the ring. Darby coughs and sputters but the fans rally up.
Konosuke goes out after Darby but Darby SMACKS him! Konosuke KNEES low, KNEES him again and again and again! Konosuke KNEES Darby against the barriers, then refreshes the count. Konosuke whips Darby hard into railing! Darby sputters as he leans against the railing, but Konosuke positions the steel steps. Konosuke then fetches Darby, lines up a shot, but Darby fights the suplex! Darby CLAWS Konosuke’s back, then fires a shot. Konosuke DECKS Darby in return! Darby slumps against the steps, Konosuke runs up, but Darby dodges! Konosuke’s knees hit the steps and he tumbles over! Darby then runs up the steps to SHOTGUN Konosuke down!
The fans fire up while both men are down on the floor! Konosuke checks his knee before he crawls around, and Darby gets in the ring so he can build speed! Darby DIVES! Direct hit on Konosuke but Darby’s the one who hits the desk! The fans fire up while both men are down again, but Darby rises up to get Konosuke on the apron! Darby fires forearms, then goes up a corner! COFFIN- NO, Konosuke catches him for a SUPER BLUE THUNDER BOMB to the floor!! The fans go nuts again and Callis says that’s the end of Darby Allin, but Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref hurries to check Darby but Callis tells Doc Sampson to call it. Darby is somehow still in this, so Konosuke storms his way over. Konosuke drags Darby up, puts him in the ring, then paces around him. Konosuke runs the ropes to LARIAT! Darby flips inside-out, Konosuke covers him, TWO!! Darby still has fight inside but he’s also dazed. Konosuke clamps onto Darby with a chinlock and squeezes tight. Darby endures, even as Konosuke leans on him with his much-taller frame. Darby reaches out, fights around, and rises up, only for Konosuke to CANADIAN RACK BOMB! Darby sputters all over again while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Konosuke sits back as he watches Darby crawl to the apron. Konosuke storms his way over, but Darby RAMS low! Slingshot sunset flip, but Konosuke rolls through! Only for Darby to kick the legs out! Darby catches Konosuke to a GUILLOTINE! Konosuke endures the squeeze, fights up to his feet, and he powers out to THROW Darby! Darby lands out, fires shots, and RAMS low! Darby then hops on, but Konosuke stops Code Red! Konosuke swings Darby around, tucks him in, BASTARD DRIVER! And WHEELBARROW GERMAN! The fans fire up and Callis says that’s true power! Darby sputters again and Konosuke vows to end this.
Konosuke runs corner to corner, HELLUVA KICK!! Then he hoists Darby up top, climbs up after him, and goes to the very top! The fans freak out already for the SUPER DUPER GERMAN SUPLEX!! Bridging cover, TWO!!! Callis is freaking out as much as the fans, and he protests the count! Konosuke is furious, but he aims for the WAGAMAMA KNEE!!! Cover, TWO?!?! Darby survives by nanoseconds, and Konosuke is beside himself! “This is Awesome!” but now CLØN rushes out here! He distracts the ref, and Callis hurries to take the Dynamite Diamond Ring off his finger to put it in Konosuke’s hands! Konosuke thinks about it, but The Alpha has honor!
The fans cheer as Konosuke wants to do this his way! But then Darby runs up, cradles, TWO!! Konosuke escapes, ALPHA ELBOW!! Darby is down, dazed, but still moving! Konosuke drags Darby up again, goes back to the corner and back to the top rope. The fans hope these two “FIGHT FOREVER!” but it has to end somehow! Darby fights against the lift with headlock punches! Then he hops on, SUPER CODE RED!! Konosuke staggers up, Darby leg scissors, steps through, LAST SUPPER!! TWO?!?! Konosuke escapes again, then bails out! So Darby just goes up top! SUPER COFFIN DROP!! Direct hit and both men are down again!
The fans are thunderous as Konosuke and Darby stir. A ring count climbs, Callis complains that some people just gotta follow directions and run the play! Coach Callis pulled Konosuke outta obscurity, Konosuke would do anything! Now he’s got some gold, some fame, and gets a mind of his own! Callis complaining aside, the ring count is climbing! Darby drags himself in at 9, but Konosuke YANKS him back out! That refreshes the count, and Konosuke vows to end this for real now. Konosuke points to the steel steps, and he drags Darby up onto them with a deadlift RAGING- NO, Darby knees Konosuke, turns things around, and FULL METAL SCORPION DEATH DROP!!!
The fans go nuts again while Konosuke writhes! Konosuke flops off the steps, Darby crawls into the ring, and Darby just climbs the corner again! SUPER DUPER COFFIN DROP!!! Konosuke might be unconscious! Darby still hauls Konosuke into the ring, pushes him to a cover, TWO?!?!? Konosuke survives and Darby is furious! But Darby just reloads, COFFIN DROP but onto knees!!! Ghost pin, TWO!!! Darby escapes but the WAGAMAMA KNEE finds him!! Konosuke hauls Darby up, but Darby pops free! Trip, step through, and SCORPION DEATH LOCK!!! Konosuke endures, reaches out, but Darby sits deep!!
Callis says don’t even think about it! Konosuke almost does, but he bites his own thumb to ignore the pain in his back! Konosuke reaches out, crawls his way forward, and he fights to the ROPEBREAK!!! But Darby is right up top! COFFION DROP on the back!! Then Darby goes right back up, COFFIN DROP again!!! Cover, DARBY WINS!!
Winner: Darby Allin, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
Callis is steaming, but Darby overcomes Konosuke to avenge that loss in the Continental Classic! But it also took so much out of him just to do it! Darby still asks for a mic and one is brought to him. Darby sits up against the ropes, has them cut his music, and he tells MJF to get his ass out here! There’s a contract MJF needs to sign! The ring crew hurries to bring in a table and some chairs for that very contract signing, and MJF makes his entrance. MJF reluctantly makes his way down the ramp, and both men meet at the table. Darby grins with blood still in hiss teeth, and he signs his part of the contract without hesitation, unlike MJF.
The fans already chant “BALD! BALD! BALD!” at MJF, and Darby pushes the contract to his side of the table. MJF grabs the pen, reaches out, but then steps away. MJF scratches his chin as he thinks on this, and the fans just chant, “BALD! BALD! BALD!” again. MJF takes a mic to say he’ll explain something to Darby, looking like he has rabies. But see, MJF is happy for Darby, he hopes Darby’s had fun holding MJF’s AEW World Championship. The fans boo that, but MJF says deep down, there is a small part of him, like the size of a North Carolinian p*nis small. That small part of MJF feels bad for Darby, because he’ll never hold this again!
Darby’s got about a good a chance of holding this title as Hangman Adam Page does again. MJF says guys like Darby are a dime a dozen, here today and gone tomorrow, stuntmen who burn the candle at both ends. In this life, people like all these fans here like to pretend that life is about making friends and family and children. The only thing that matters in life is your legacy. And Darby’s legacy will be that of the kid who had his 15 minutes of fame. They’ll pretend like Darby made a lasting impact, but the fact of the matter is, he hasn’t. He hasn’t! They’ll know deep down that Darby Allin was just a little pr*ck who got lucky.
They’ll know that Darby was too reckless and stupid to stay on top. And after May 24th, Double or Nothing, in that sh*thole of Queens, New York, y’know what MJF’s legacy will be? He’ll go down as the guy who became a THREE-TIME World Champion at just 30 years of age, unprecedented in this sport. And MJF will go down, when it’s all said and done, as the Greatest of All Time! THAT is the difference between them! Darby Allin brags about climbing a mountaintop. But when it comes to professional wrestling, Maxwell Jacob Friedman IS the mountaintop! The fans boo but MJF soaks it up. Darby tells MJF to SHUT UP!
Only someone like MJF who is so vain would think that the number one most important thing in this world is his legacy. Darby doesn’t care about legacy, he cares about living in the moment! And in this moment, Darby just wants MJF to sign the contract. Then at Double or Nothing, Darby makes Maxwell Jacob Friedman a BALLD HEADED B*TCH!! MJF frowns but the fans cheer that! MJF grabs the pen again, and with no choice, he signs on the dotted line! Then he TACKLES Darby! The fans boo as MJF beats up Darby after the war he went through with Konosuke! MJF CHUCKS an armchair outta the ring, FLIPS the table, then picks up his Dynamite Diamond Ring.
MJF puts the ring on his finger like always, then winds up to DECK Darby!! The fans boo but MJF just soaks it all up. MJF throws off his jacket, picks up the belt, and he stands over Darby with it. But then MJF isn’t done with Darby, he puts Darby on the top rope! MJF climbs up to join him, and drags Darby into position! But wait! Kevin Knight runs out here to chase MJF off! The Jet still owes The Scumbag a receipt, but it seems we’ll all have to wait on that. Will MJF still take back the title at Double or Nothing? Or will Darby keep the belt and take MJF’s dignity?
My Thoughts:
An awesome episode for Dynamite as things heat up towards Double or Nothing. Awesome 10 Man Tag to open, great win for the Faces, not that it added much to FTR VS C&C. Good promo from Jericho to look back on Stadium Stampede and hype up this year’s match. Good promo from The Demand with Davis and The Dogs, and I suppose this maximizes the feuds as well as the alliances throughout the locker room. Who knows who wins but the match will still be awesome, just as the original was. Good promo from Conglomeration, too, Cassidy & Roddy going after FTR while Kyle VS Moxley happens on the side, that’s great stuff.
Speaking of Moxley, great promo from him and Ospreay. Moxley’s semi-turn has really brought out his sage philosophical side. Great match from Ospreay VS Ace, and while Ospreay could always bring out his aggression, seeing him use more technical wrestling and even winning with a submission is good stuff. Good promo from Joe, and I liked Death Riders backing Ospreay up. Very good Owen Hart Cup brackets this year, Joe VS Ospreay is a great choice given this story, but I would think Ospreay wins that one. Good promo from Jack Perry to call out Davis, and I suppose Jack can win in the Owen Cup to then move on from the National title.
Great seeing Brian Cage back, he gave Knight an awesome match, but with JetSpeed wanting to go on a Two Man Power Trip, it makes sense Kevin won out. Same for Bailey beating Westbrook, even though Westbrook maybe went too hard on his own acrobatic escape. Great stuff in the Six Woman Tag, and I appreciate Shida didn’t ditch until after the match. Willow, Mina & Rosa might get their own Six Woman Tag with Triangle of Madness after that interaction, but also can’t wait to see if Willow can go back-to-back as Queen of Harts. For that matter, I personally would love to see Athena use the Owen Cup to move on from being ROH Women’s World Champion, but that depends on how Supercard of Honor goes this Friday.
And of course, another wild instant classic from Darby as he overcomes Takeshita. I knew the diamond ring would come into play with that reverse effect, good way of protecting Takeshita in the loss. Good stuff with MJF tonight, too, such as the opening segment’s parade of bald men to send the message to MJF. That was also a unique contract signing segment in that it came together so quickly after the main event match. Good stuff from MJF as always, and of course he attacks Darby. I feel like either Knight should not have made the save, or both parts of JetSpeed should’ve made the save. It just seems odd that only Knight cared about saving Darby. The closing moment was much better when it was MJF standing over Darby with the belt.
My Score: 9/10
