And then runs him all the way into more railing! Fans rally and Vance drags Starks up to whip again, but Starks reverses to POST Vance! Bill goes on about the acronym teams, from LFI to FTR to HOB. Bill and Starks are the BTTEIHNQ. But before Bill can properly explain that stands for The Best Tag Team Ever In History, No Question, Starks snatches the headset. Starks says Bill is doing a great job, as is he. Mama Starks loves them, Oakland loves them, and Nigel loves them!
Starks returns the headset to bring Vance up and RAM him into railing! And again! Starks soaks up the cheers while striking his pose, and he drags Vance back up.

Backstage interview with Chris Jericho.
Renee Paquette is with The Ocho as she says this Sunday, DDT Pro’s Ultimate Party 2023, he faces Konosuke Takeshita in Tokyo, Japan. Not only does Konosuke have hometown advantage, he has been on such a roll, how is Jericho preparing himself? Jericho says she’s right, Konosuke has been on a roll. He’s one of the best pro-wrestlers in the world today. “But the problem is, Takeshita, you are facing one of the best pro-wrestlers in the history of the business.” And Takeshita has also let his mind be warped by Don Callis, and has whooped Jericho time and again. So this Sunday, Ryogoku Sumo Arena, Jericho will get his revenge on that BAKA!
Jericho teaches Takeshita a lesson in front of friends, family and everyone coming to see their returning star, DDT’s biggest star, have his homecoming. Takeshita faces Jericho, who has been in Japan over 60 times. He’s won titles, headlined arenas, headlined the Tokyo Dome, he’s done it all. But Takeshita, as good as you are, Jericho is better! He will show Takeshita what it’s like to be in the ring with an angry and pissed off Chris Jericho. This Sunday in Tokyo, Japan, Jericho will get his revenge on Takeshita! The Ocho is all fired up, but will The Alpha put out that fire?
Backstage interview with Don Callis.
Lexi Nair is with the head of the Don Callis Family, who is talking with Prince Nana. She is trying to put together who the fourth member of The Don Callis Family team will be in the Street Fight next Wednesday. And what is Prince Nana doing here? Uh, he’s doing his due diligence. Just as Nana has told Callis, when you look out at the universe and dig deep into your pockets, what happens? What does that mean? Callis translates. Sammy Guevara has been brutalized by Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega, and he is even having a baby yet he is on the shelf.
Jericho will be handled by Takeshita this very weekend in Tokyo, but Callis just did a deal with Nana to “rent” the services of one Brian “The Machine” Cage for that Like a Dragon Street Fight. It will be tremendous! They’re in the money, but will Jericho, Omega, Ibushi and even Paul Wight be in trouble with a now extended Don Callis Family?
Backstage interview with Team Triple J.
Lexi is now with “The Heat” of AEW, Jeff & Karen Jarrett, Sonjay Dutt, Satnam Singh, and the #1 Contender to the ROH World Championship, Jay Lethal. The question is, when is he taking his shot? Double J says Lexi’s got heat with him right now, asking that. That is a question she has no business asking! The fact of the matter is, in Memphis, Tennessee, Jarrett embarrassed Eddie Kingston, and beat his ass in that Memphis Street Fight. The others agree (since they had a hand in that beating) and so it is now if but when Lethal gets in the ring with Eddie, he will become the NEW ROH World Champion.
Lethal says he’ll do even one better. Because when he gets the ROH World Championship match, it is 1v1 between him and Eddie, and he will prove to the world what Triple J already knows: Lethal outclasses Eddie in every possible way, and- Ortiz walks in. Y’all had a lot to say about him last week, so he did them a favor and went looking for them so they can say things to his face. Karen says Ortiz is talking a big game for one of him and five of them. Hell, Satnam himself can pass for two or three. So if she was Ortiz, she’d watch what she says. In fact, Lethal says Ortiz should watch what he says before he gets jumped by all of them here.
Oh, is that so? Well that’s the difference between Ortiz and Lethal: Lethal needs all these people to fight his battles. From where Ortiz is from, even if they get jumped, they go down swinging! So he DECKS Lethal! Satnam KNEES Ortiz, then the group mugs Ortiz. Satnam puts Ortiz on road cases to CHOKE him! Refs rush in, as does security, and Satnam lets Ortiz go. Triple J thinks they can do whatever they want, but will the Mad King put them all in their place?
Ruby Soho VS Red Velvet!
The Runaway is accompanied out by Saraya, but assures Saraya she can handle this on her own. Saraya returns to the back, will Ruby be able to handle the heat? Or will Velvet make Ruby get out of her kitchen?
The bell rings, the two circle and fans rally up. They tie up, Ruby waistlocks but Velvet fights the lift. Ruby powers up to SLAM Velvet, then she messes Velvet’s hair. Velvet gets in Ruby’s face, they tie up, and Velvet waistlocks. Velvet SLAMS Ruby the first time, then stirs it up. Fans cheer, Velvet headlocks but Ruby wrenches out to stomp a foot. Ruby headlocks, but Velvet powers out, only for Ruby to run her over! Ruby mocks the stirring, then runs. Velvet drops, then CALF KICKS! Fans fire up and Velvet runs up to fire off body shots! Velvet stomps away on Ruby, lets off to then dig her boots in and do the splits!
The ref counts, Velvet lets off, then she whips. Ruby holds ropes to block, and she SMACKS Velvet off buckles! Ruby snarls, storms up on Velvet and stomps a mudhole in. The ref counts, Ruby runs Velvet to bump her off buckles! Fans rally for Velvet, but Ruby swings, only for Velvet to counter punch! Velvet fires off, runs, and wheelbarrows, but Ruby HOTSHOTS her off ropes! Velvet sputters and falls back, Ruby covers, TWO! Fans rally for Velvet but Ruby taunts her as Rampage goes picture in picture.
Ruby pushes Velvet around, puts her back on ropes and HCOKES her! The ref counts, Ruby lets off, and Velvet sputters again. Velvet goes to a corner, Ruby grins as she storms up, but Velvet throws more hands! Ruby just HEADBUTTS Velvet back down! Ruby drags Velvet up, wrenches and reels her in, but Velvet fights the saido! Ruby powers up, but Velvet turns that into a CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO, and Ruby CLOBBERS Velvet! Cover, TWO! Ruby is annoyed but she drags Velvet up. Velvet throws hands, runs, but Ruby LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Ruby is further annoyed, and she sits Velvet up into a straitjacket stretch.
Velvet endures, fans rally up, but Ruby leans on the hold. Velvet still fights up to her feet and throws body shots. But Ruby clinches to STO! Cover, TWO! Ruby mocks the fans cheering Velvet, and Ruby drags Velvet up into a corner. Ruby smothers Velvet with the buckles while Rampage goes to break.
Rampage returns, Ruby drags Velvet up and whips her corner to corner. Velvet comes back to CLOBBER Ruby! And again! Fans fire up with Velvet and she runs to wheelbarrow and BULLDOG! Fans fire up more and Velvet runs to DOUBLE KNEE Ruby on the ropes! Ruby flops back and Velvet STANDING MOONSAULTS! Cover, TWO! Ruby is still in this and Velvet grows frustrated. Velvet stands Ruby up, runs up, but Ruby slips out of the Final Slice to trip Velvet! And SUPERKICK! Ruby goes to run, Velvet holds onto the waistband, but Ruby kicks free and SUPERKICKS again! Ruby drags Velvet up, reels her in, and hangs her out to dry on the ropes.
Ruby goes side to side to YAKUZA KICK Velvet back down! Cover, TWO! Velvet survives but Ruby smirks in a bit of frustration. SAIDO! And then another SAIDO!! Ruby shows no mercy as she drags Velvet up in the corner, to CHOP! Ruby runs corner to corner, but Velvet dodges! Ruby ELBOWS Velvet, goes up and DEADLY NIGHTSHADE! But then Ruby sees a bouquet of green roses be brought ringside. Ruby isn’t sure why, though. Who are these from? The ref puts those aside, and Velvet rolls Ruby up! The ref misses, hurries to the count, TWO!! Velvet might’ve won if the ref was on point, but then Ruby DECKS her!
Ruby drags Velvet up, swings, Velvet bobs ‘n’ weaves! Velvet ROCKS, KICKS and HEEL- NO, Ruby ducks that! And the buzzsaw! Ruby shoves, but the DREAMCAST KICK hits! Cover, VELVET WINS!!
Winner: Red Velvet, by pinfall
The Runaway gets knocked out, thrown off by the romantic gesture! Velvet is back, will the dough rise until she’s going for gold?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
After all the confrontations and stare downs, Willow Nightingale has had enough, and she gets her match with Julia Hart! And as a bonus, the winner will be the #1 contender to the AEW TBS Championship! Will the Babe with the Power too sweet to be sour bring down the Lady of the House? Or will Julia be Hartless in earning another shot at Kris Statlander?
The Kingdom w/ Roderick Strong VS Los Suavecitos!
“DASHA! DASHAAA~!” The Savior of the Backbreaker tells her to zip it?! No music! Fans boo but he tells them to shut up, too! “Ladies and gentlemen, No Neck November is in full effect, baybay!” Roddy has The Kingdom wheel him down the ramp, but then he tells them to slow down, he gets scared. But looking around Oakland, it makes sense that the Raiders left. Fans boo but Roddy says the reason why is because OAKLAND SUCKS! But enough about Oakland, Roddy wants to dedicate this match to his best friend- The fans already shout “ADAAAM~!” a la Roddy, but Roddy says no, Adam’s HIS best friend! “I love you ADAAAM~!”
Anyway, Taven & Bennett get in the ring, will they see who #NeckStrong their opponents are? The bell rings, and Taven hits a HEEL KICK on Ricky(?), and then Bennett runs in to HIP TOSS Danny(?) into the ring! The ref reprimands but The Kingdom mugs Danny. DEATH VALLEY DRIVER and JUST THE TIP of the knee! Then a PILEDRIVER for Danny!! And then Taven CHOPS Ricky, feeds him to Mike’s FOREARM, then they work together, THY KINGDOM COME!! Cover, The Kingdom wins!
Winners: The Kingdom, by pinfall
Los Suavecitos do NOT pass the #NeckCheck, and then Roddy gets in the ring to give Ricky END OF HEARTACHE!! Then Roddy has to go back to his wheelchair! Fans boo this overly dramatic “wrestling legend,” but will he and The Kingdom do this all “No Neck November?”
Backstage interview with Daniel Garcia, Matthew Menard & Angelo Parker.
Lexi is with the X-JAS, and says Garcia asked for this time. Garcia says he did, because frankly, he is sick and tired of the pity party, he is sick and tired of being sad. So how is he gonna get back on track? Well, he went through the AEW roster page, a very extensive roster at that, and he wanted to find a name he has a lot of respect for. He found Andrade El Idolo. Garcia tells Andrade, Saturday Night Collision, let’s get it on, let’s get it poppin’! Menard says he loves that! And y’know why? Cuz they ain’t crying over spilt milk, and Garcia is making that chicken salad. But it feels to Menard that against a guy like Andrade, if you don’t have your head on straight, you’re gonna be on thin ice.
But then in walk the Outcasts, arguing about what happened out there, and Saraya tells “Jessica,” just get out of here! Her name’s Lexi… Either way, Lexi leaves, Garcia steps back, and Saraya asks Cool Hand Ange, “What kind of idiot sends flowers at 10:30 at night in the first place?” Maybe that person said 10:30 AM and the stupid flower place got it wrong. Saraya doesn’t care, just shut up. Parker is on thin ice! That is what Daddy Magic said. Okay, back off, don’t crowd her. Well excuse him, sweetheart! While Menard and Saraya argue, Ruby and Parker smile at each other. Saraya and Menard do agree one one thing: keep these two away from each other. But can they stop the chemistry that’s brewing between the Runaway and Cool Hand Ange?
Backstage interview with Roderick Strong & The Kingdom.
Lexi is now with the #NeckStrong awareness trio and says that was a huge win. Huge win? No, this is just what they do! This is the trend these three are on. And did you see how “brave” Roddy was out there? But Darius Martin & Action Andretti walk in, sarcastically clapping and congratulating The Kingdom. They saw that and they noticed how great The Kingdom looks. But they didn’t look so great the last time these four wrestled. As Action recalls, he and Darius beat The Kingdom. Taven pretends to have no idea who Action & Darius are. Then perhaps Darius & Action should remind them.
The Kingdom acts tough after the bell, but guaranteed they can’t pull that on them. Darius & Action made them bleed before to beat them in the ring, and they’ll gladly do it again. Roddy shouts “DARIUUUS~! Good job, dude. Very good job. You talked so tough. Hey, fellas, I just found my first victim. DARIUS!” Roddy rolls out and The Kingdom goes with him, but Lexi isn’t even sure Roddy’s cleared to compete. And what does he even mean, “victim?” Is Roddy finally going to get out of that wheelchair and neck brace to show he is still strong?
FTR VS Komander & El Hijo del Vikingo w/ Alex Abrahantes!
The Top Guys want to be back on top again, but they have to fight their way back to the tag titles. Will they do just that starting here tonight? Or will the AAA World Cruiserweight and AAA Mega Champions earn their own shot at the top?
The teams sort out and Komander starts against Dax Harwood. They circle, fans rally for FTR, and Dax feels things out with Komander. Komander KICKS but Dax shakes that off. They go again, Dax blocks a kick to put Komander in a corner, and he CHOPS! And ROCKS! And CHOPS again! Dax snapmares Komander, runs but Komander gets up. Dax runs him over, keeps moving, but Komander hurdles, ducks ‘n’ dodges to tilt-o-whirl RANA! Fans fire up as Komander DROPKICKS! Cover, ONE!! Dax is up but Komander CLUBS him. Komander wrenches an arm, CHOPS Dax, then wrenches again. Tag to Vikingo and fans fire up!
Vikingo takes the handoff but Dax pulls hair! The ref reprimands but Cash tags in. Vikingo slips away and he stares down with Cash. Fans rally for “VI-KING-O!” but Cash runs in. Vikingo dodges, SOBATS, and whips, but Cash reverses. Vikingo handsprings, Cash drops under, and they keep going. Vikingo wrenches and whips, Cash reverses but Vikingo breaks free, and Cash narrowly avoids the heel kick! Vikingo BOOTS, GAMANGIRIS, and then has Cash in a corner. Vikingo goes up top, to IMPLODER DRAGON RANA!! Fans are thunderous, and then Vikingo DROPKICKS Cash down! Fans are even hotter now as Cash bails out!
Vikingo builds speed and DIVES, but Cash sends him into the desk!! Fans lose their minds and medics check on Vikingo while Rampage goes picture in picture.
Cash stays back while Doc Sampson checks Vikingo. Somehow Vikingo is still conscious, and somehow he’s still okay to be in the match. Cash drags Vikingo up and into the ring, covers, TWO!! Vikingo is still in this so Cash drags him up and around to put on ropes. Cash CHOPS! Cash shakes out his hand, tags in Dax, and snapmares to SLIDING LARIAT! Dax adds an ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO!! Vikingo still isn’t done, so Dax drops a leg! Cover, TWO! Abrahantes coaches Vikingo up but Dax drags Vikingo around. Vikingo clamps onto a leg but Dax pries him free. Vikingo throws body shots, then forearms! But Dax bumps him off buckles!
Dax whips Vikingo corner to corner hard, and Vikingo falls back. Dax whips Vikingo back into the corner, and ROCKS him with a forearm! Dax CHOPS Vikingo, but Vikingo CHOPS back! They CHOP back and forth, and Vikingo fires up! Vikingo eggs Dax on, so Dax CHOPS him! Vikingo sputters, but he stays up to CHOP again! Dax runs in, blocks boots and puts Vikingo on the apron. Vikingo RAMS Dax, GAMANGIRIS, and springboards, Dax ducks, but Vikingo tags Komander! Komander slides under Dax, fires off body shots and CHOPS, but Cash runs in! So Komander fires off on him, too!
Cash whips Komander, pops him up, but Komander uses that to DROPKICK Dax! Komander then dodges Cash, gets around again, and MONKEY- NO, Cash stops the flip to put Komander on the top rope! Cash SHOVES Komander, but Komander uses body scissors to DUMP Cash up and out! FTR regroups, Komander and VIkingo do the same. They pose, fans fire up, and then fans rally with the luchadores. Vikingo goes up and out, then so does Komander. Komander jumps up, tightrope walks, and he CROSSBODIES onto Dax! Cash avoids that, only for Vikingo to ASAI MOONSAULT as Rampage returns to single picture! Direct hit!
Fans are thunderous as the luchadores stand tall! They put Dax in, Komander goes up, and he CROSSBODIES again! Dax rolls through to a cover, TWO!! Komander escapes, kicks but Dax ducks the roundhouse! But not the HEEL KICK! Komander chicken wings Dax as Vikingo goes up, but Cash runs up! Vikingo leaps over Cash, GAMANGIRIS him, but Dax gets free. Komander still CODE BREAKERS, and Vikingo goes up, MISSILE DROPKICK TABLETOP COMBO! Komander stacks Dax, TWO!! Dax escapes, but then Komander dodges! Vikingo SUPERKICKS Dax into a RANA! Cover, TWO!!! Dax escapes again!
Fans are thunderous while both men are down, and Komander catches his breath. “This is Awesome!” as Komander hoists Dax up. Dax fights the lift with elbows, but Komander still tries. Dax slips off to whip Komander away. Vikingo tags in and GAMANGIRIS! Vikingo goes up top, but Dax trips him up! Dax climbs up after Vikingo, goes to the very top, and Cash is on another corner! SUPERPLEX for the- CROSSBODY! Vikingo turns it around, and Komander springboards to SUPER STEINER Cash!! Cover, TWO!!! Dax survives, but now the luchadores go up the corners! FTR is in the drop zones, for the STEREO 450 SPLASHES!! Cover, TWO?!?
FTR is still in this but Komander drags Cash up. But Cash is dead weight so Komander drops him. Vikingo pounds the mat while fans fire up for “LUCHA! LUCHA!” Komander throws hands on Cash, runs and handsprings, but into Cash’s Gory Especial, GORY BOMB! Vikingo DREAMCAST KICKS Cash! Vikingo aims at Dax, but Dax ducks the Dreamcast to shove Vikingo away. Vikingo goes up the ropes to springboard, QUEBRADA! Dax catches Vikingo and picks him back up, TOMBSTONE!! Cover, TWO?!!? This is why Vikingo is AAA Mega Champion! The fans hope these teams “FIGHT FOREVER!” but Rampage has to end somehow!
Dax goes up, and DIVING- NO, he has to bail out of the headbutt as Vikingo moves! Vikingo runs up, Dax pops him up, SLINGSHOT- NO, Vikingo sunset flips through the bomb! TWO!! Dax is up, Vikingo runs in to roll and- NO, Dax tries the slingshot bomb again! Vikingo RANAS it this time! Cover, TWO!!! Vikingo can’t believe it but Abrahantes coaches him up. Dax runs in, Vikingo dodges and Komander GAMANGIRIS! Komander tags in, runs in, but Dax TOSSES him out! Komander holds on but barely, and Viking leaps! But Dax again tries the slingshot, POWERBOMB hits! But Komander ghost pins!! TWO!!!
Dax flounders away while Komander is shocked! Fans argue the count, but Komander just aims as Dax stirs. Dax rises in his corner, Komander runs in but Dax tosses him out! Cash tags in, Komander CHOPS Cash and slingshots to BOOT Dax! HOTSHOT for Cash, then he dodges Dax! Dax hits off the post and falls back! Komander has the fans on his side and he goes up, but the ref tries to explain who is legal! Komander still tightrope walks, CIELITO- NO, Dax avoids the shooting star! Cash slides in, Komander runs into the SHATTER MACHINE!!! Cover, FTR wins!!
Winners: FTR, by pinfall
Cash says that is why they are the absolute best! FTR just pinned one half of the AAA World Tag Team Champions, but they show him and Vikingo respect by offering handshakes. Komander and Vikingo accept and fans cheer the sportsmanship. Will Komander call his partner, Arez, to give FTR a shot at the AAA tag titles in the near future?
Wait, the lights go down! And clapping from the shadows is The House of Black. Malakai smirks as he and Brody King stare FTR down. The House returns to the shadows, will they make good on their promise to show FTR how much they “care?”
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage for actually being live for once, with an awesome main event. FTR VS Komander & Vikingo was practically PPV worthy, or at least tag title level stuff. FTR gets the win, of course, for momentum in their story against House of Black, who get the last moment on screen with that sarcastic applause and sinister smiles. Guess this is being kept to just House of Black VS FTR unless there’s a BIG tag title match in the works. Starks beats Vance thanks to Big Bill in a great opening match, but LFI runs them off after. Rush & Dralistico are in action together tomorrow for Collision, and they could call out Starks & Bill, so we should at least get Starks & Bill VS LFI at Full Gear.
That was an almost hilarious squash match from Kingdom beating up Los Suavecitos. Of course Roddy jumps in to hit someone with his finisher to take his frustrations out, and then he continues to fake the bad neck. It’s also great that Roddy has become known for shouting names to where the fans did it first, and that Roddy did it when shouting at Darius. Darius VS Roddy is going to be a great match that I’m pretty sure Roddy wins, but something has to give about him faking that neck. Or more likely, he’ll reveal he has been faking it for a long time now, and none of us fans will actually be that surprised.
Great match from Ruby VS Velvet, and a great little twist with the bouquet being enough of a distraction that Velvet wins. Velvet’s return is 1-1 after losing to Julia, and now Julia VS Willow tomorrow is going to be a great contender’s match, the winner going to face Kris. I would hope it’s part of Full Gear’s main show so we can finally say AEW booked more than one woman’s match per show. And great promos with the X-JAS and Outcasts. I am still loving that Ruby x Parker is becoming a thing on screen and now they’re playing off it with Saraya and Menard being against it. Garcia VS Andrade will also be awesome stuff, can’t wait to see that.

Jon Moxley survived another title defense thanks to Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta & Pac, but now they must defend their own titles.

Or will these high-fliers really cash in here tonight?
The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and it is time to slam, if you wanna jam!
The trios sort out, and The Decoder starts against Darius Martin. The fans rally up as the bell rings. Yuta and Darius circle, tie up, and Yuta wrenches to a hammerlock.

ONE, and Darius avoids a leg sweep to headlock. Yuta powers up and out, Darius goes up and over, then Darius arm-drags Yuta!

Darius SOBATS, Dante sweeps, and Darius DOUBLE STOMPS! Dante covers, ONE, but Dante wrenches to wristlock. Yuta pulls hair to put Dante in the corner, and Claudio tags in. The Swiss Cyborg stomps Dante, the fans boo, but Claudio waistlocks. Dante switches and hops on for a SLEEPER! Claudio powers up and out, but Dante sunset flips! Claudio flails to stay up, and he drags Dante right up to his feet! Dante dodges, and he fires forearms!
Dante fires more shots but Claudio shoves him away. Dante dodges, ROCKS Claudio, but Claudio returns to CLOBBER Dante! The fans are torn but Pac applauds. Claudio fires body shots, then UPPERCUTS. Claudio pie faces Dante, whips corner to corner hard, then runs up, but into a BOOT! Claudio just comes back, blocks a boot, but not the ENZIGIRI! Dante goes up and up and RANA! Not the cleanest but Claudio still tumbles out. Claudio hurries back in, tag to Pac. Pac RAMS Dante, then slingshots up and over. Pac keeps moving, but Dante CLOBBERS him! Tag to Fox and he LARIATS Pac! And goes Matrix to then PELE!
The fans fire up for Fox and he has Pac. Fox whips, Pac reverses, but Fox stops himself. Yuta runs up but Fox TOSSES him! Pac runs up, Fox puts him on the apron and sweeps the legs. Pac is on the apron, Fox builds speed, just to slingshot STOMP Pac on the apron! Then he CANNONBALLS Yuta! But Claudio runs up to BOOT Fox down! The fans boo, Top Flight protests, but Claudio deadlifts Fox into the ring! Pac storms in and stomps Fox around. Pac drags Fox up, bumps him off buckles hard, then tags Claudio. They mug Fox, Claudio ROCKS Fox, and then drags Fox up. Fox tries to power forward but Claudio keeps him back!
Claudio powers Fox back, he tags Yuta in, and they mug Fox more. Yuta stands Fox up to reel him in, and he snap suplexes! Cover, ONE!! Fox stays in this but Yuta stays on him. Fox JAWBREAKERS free, goes Matrix again, hot tag to Darius! Darius CLOBBERS Yuta, BLASTS Pac, then BOOTS Yuta! Darius keeps moving, HOTSHOT BULLDOG DROPKICK COMBO! Then Darius GAMANGIRIS Yuta, steps in and COMPLETE SHOT! Cover, Claudio breaks it! Dante CANNONBALLS Claudio! Pac TOSSES Dante out, the ref reprimands him, but that lets Yuta CLAW Darius’ eyes! The fans boo but Yuta hits a PAIN THRILLER! Cover, TWO!
Yuta is annoyed but he keeps Darius down with a wristlock, and mockingly claps hands, while Collision goes picture in picture.
Yuta drags Darius up, bumps him off buckles, then tags Pac. Pac stomps Darius down, kicks him around, then kicks Darius in the side! Pac stays between Darius and his team, taunts him, but Darius fires body shots. Darius UPPERCUTS, but Pac KICKS him down! Pac taunts the fans, then brings him up.

Pac stomps Darius, CHOKES him on the ropes, but steps off as the ref counts. Claudio gets a cheap shot in! Fox protests but nothing can be done as Pac stands Darius up. Tag to Claudio and the mugging continues. The fans rally for “A R FOX! A R FOX!” Darius fires body shots and a CHOP! Claudio brushes that off, but Darius CHOPS again! And again! Claudio still eggs Darius on, Darius CHOPS! Claudio UPPERCUTS into a hook! Darius tries but Claudio fights the backslide! Claudio spins around, shoves Darius, POP-UP DROPKICK!

They talk trash, and then Dante gets up, only for Action to LARIAT him down! But where’d Fox go? Wait, now Lio & Action undo their chain necklaces, so they can CHOKE Top Flight with them!! The fans boo, more refs rush out here, but The Cru has already choked out Darius & Dante! Will this be the end of this animosity? Or have Lio & Action only put themselves back on Top Flight’s radar?
BREAKING NEWS for April!
Dynamite returns to Boston, but it won’t be Big Business. It’ll be a Spring Breakthru! Get your tickets now so you don’t miss out!
Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Lexy Nair brings up the intense match Adam Cole and Daniel Garcia had, going to Hell and back, all for the TNT Championship. It unfortunately ended in a time limit draw, and some would say a tie is worse than a loss. Cole says he certainly feels that way. He feels sick to his stomach, physically beat up, and the worst part is, he had Garcia beat. “Daniel Garcia, I had you beat for that TNT Championship. The time limit is what saved you. And lemme tell you, the next time we do face each other, there will be no outside interference, there will be no time limit. It will be Adam Cole VS Daniel Garcia, for the TNT Championship, and trust me when I tell you, you’re looking at the next champ!”
Kyle O’Reilly says wow. And speaking of rematches, it has been about a week since their match with FTR. And what’s really bugging him isn’t the loss, it’s the lack of respect. Kyle & Roddy showed a lot of respect. They held out their hands, and what’d FTR do? FTR left Kyle wondering if they really are everything they say they are: The best tag team on Earth that’s ever existed in the time-space continuum! Kyle thinks they’re just insecure. Roddy shouts, “KYYYLE~! No. No, we are not gonna do that. That loss matters. We didn’t go through what we went through to get back together, to lose to the supposed best tag team on the planet.”
Roddy wants FTR to hear this. “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. The third time’s not gonna happen, fellas.” Cole says, “And that is Undisputed.” When and where will we see these epic trilogies happen?
Backstage interview with Kazuchika Okada.
Slam Dunk Sunday returns as Lexy is now with The Rainmaker. We’re not even a quarter into 2025 and Okada has gotten some very significant wins defending the AEW Continental Championship. Okada says yes, at Grand Slam: Australia, he beat Buddy Matthews. At Revolution, he beat Brody King. He put those dogs down. What does that mean? Okada says he means, he put those b*tches to sleep! Is The Rainmaker saying the Hounds of Hell are no more? Or will they come barking back and take a bite out of his belt?
Bandido VS Johnny TV!
The Most Wanted wants his revenge on Chris Jericho, but he was first challenged by the Guru of Greatness for this “big ratings” showdown. Will Bandido mute Johnny and head for The Nueve? Or will he find he’s not #TVReady?
Johnny disrespects Bandido during his entrance by throwing his big studded jacket at him! The fans boo, Johnny grins, but Bandido fires off forearms! The bell rings, Johnny pushes Bandido back, then wrangles him. Johnny rolls Bandido, ONE, but Johnny floats to rain down fists and stomps! Johnny gets his sunglasses off, the fans boo, but Johnny says he is TV Ready. Johnny taunts “cabron” Bandido, then KICKS him in the back. Johnny eggs Bandido on, “How’s my foot taste?” Johnny drags Bandido up for a NECKBREAKER! The fans boo as Johnny shows off the abs. Johnny KICKS Bandido, drags him back up, then fires body shots.
Johnny whips, Bandido ducks ‘n’ dodges, then he CLOBBERS Johnny! The fans fire up as Bandido keeps moving, another big forearm! And another big forearm! Bandido fires up, the fans are with him, and he runs in at the corner. Bandido jumps up to MONKEY FLIP! Johnny flops hard on his face! Johnny gets up in a huff, but runs into a military press! With ONE HAND! Bandido then THROWS Johnny down! Omaha rallies more while Johnny bails out, and Collision goes to single picture.
Bandido build speed, but Johnny slides in and LARIATS! Johnny mocks the clapping, then covers, TWO! Bandido is tougher than that, but Johnny drags him right up. Johnny reels Bandido in, MOONLIGHT DRIVE! Cover, TWO! Bandido is still tougher than that, but Johnny clamps on a dragon sleeper. Bandido endures, even as Johnny hooks a leg and twists him. Bandido fights around, reaches out, but Johnny drags him back! Johnny keeps on the stretch plum style hold, but Bandido still endures. Bandido fights up, fires knees, but Johnny CLUBS Bandido! Johnny INVERTED SUPLEXES, but Bandido lands on the apron!
Bandido blocks a shot, slingshots, but Johnny SHOVES him down! Bandido hits the floor and Johnny goes out after him. Johnny storms up on Bandido, stands him up, and whips him into steel steps! Bandido falls in a heap, Johnny stalks him and taunts him, but Collision goes to break.
Slam Dunk Sunday returns, Johnny runs in at the corner but Bandido BOOTS him away! Bandido then UPPERCUTS, goes up, but Johnny throws him down! Bandido rolls to his feet, runs back in, but Johnny dodges. Johnny runs back in, but Bandido SHOTGUNS him down! The fans fire up, Bandido covers, TWO! Johnny survives that shot but Bandido stays focused. The fans rally, Bandido paces, and Bandido drags Johnny up. Bandido gut wrenches to a Canadian Rack, that then becomes a torture rack! X KNEE! Johnny staggers to the ropes, Bandido says BANG! Bandido runs in, BLACKJACK 21 PLEX!! Bridging cover, Bandido wins!
Winner: Bandido, by pinfall
The Most Wanted was most certainly #TVReady! But he’s not done, as he grabs a mic to call out Jericho! “Come here, and bring my little brother, Gravity’s mask, RIGHT NOOOW!” Bandido waits, and here comes The Learning Tree! The ROH World Champion has “Big Bill” & Bryan Keith behind him, and he is holding onto Gravity’s mask. The fans boo, but Jericho smiles as he holds the mask up. The Learning Tree goes to the ring, and Jericho also has a mic. Jericho steps and says, “You know, Bandido. I wish I could tell you it doesn’t have to be this way, but I think we both know that it does.
“Because even after a generational career, one of the greatest in pro-wrestling history, I still have to remind you, everybody here watching tonight, everybody at home, who’s been fortunate enough to witness the brilliance of the Jericho Era… That you can only take me for granted for so long! That you can only take from me so much until I start taking back.” Jericho can be quite generous, and he can also be very dangerous. Bandido can just ask his family. The fans boo, but Jericho says Bandido’s terrified sister, his disgraced brother, and his weeping mother…! And Jericho is sorry he made Bandido’s mother cry, he really is.
But he had to teach Bandido a lesson! That’s what happens when you try and take the ROH World Championship from Chris Jericho! You understand him? Do you?! The fans boo, but Jericho says if Bandido wants the mask back, he can’t have it. Because Jericho wants Bandido to remember the humiliation that he felt when Jericho took this mask right off his brother. And the only thing worse than taking a luchador’s mask… is putting that mask on! Jericho goes to put Gravity’s mask on! The fans boo as Jericho wears it as his own! His big head doesn’t even fit in it! The fans chant “YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!” but Jericho tells them to shut up!
Jericho, muffled as his voice is now, tells Bandido that Bandido should just stand there and cry like his mother! Bandido DECKS Jericho instead! But now Bill runs up! Bandido dodges, BOOTS Keith, then dodges again! Bandido goes up, up, but into Bill’s big hand! SKYSCRAPER- NO, Bandido slips free, then dodges Keith! Bandido SNATCHES the mask off Jericho, and gets away clean! The fans fire up as Bandido gets his moral victory! But will he and Jericho go one more round for THE victory?
Megan Bayne speaks.
“I’ve watched others fight for what they believe is theirs: Titles, fame, glory. But none of them possess true power. They worship at the feet of champions, but even those champions don’t understand what it is to be chosen by the heavens. I have arrived here as the embodiment of fate. And when they bow before me, when they worship at my feet, they’ll finally know that the All Elite Goddess has arrived. I am The Megasus, and this is my kingdom now.”
Toni Storm speaks.
“Who died and made you God? Who came down from the mountains and bestowed your power upon my people? Megan Bayne, have you heard the mythology of the one they call Timeless? Hercules doesn’t have my thighs, I have an Oedipal Complex with myself, I can summon the Kraken from my ass, and Pegasus ain’t got s*it on me! I saw my reflection, and my reflection saw me, and we made love until the sun came up. And at Dynasty, I will cut off the head of the mighty Megasus, and I will hold it aloft for the whole world to see, and I will say… ‘By GAWD I’m good.'” Luther applauds in the background, will Toni Storm slay this female titan?
Harley Cameron VS Aminah Belmont!
Though she was rather coy about her- er, Harley-gram’s budding romance with The Beast Mortos, the wild Aussie is getting back in action. Will the Phoenix Princess #FEELTHEWRATH on Slam Dunk Sunday?
The bell rings and the fans rally for Harley. Harley and Aminah tie up, Harley headlocks, but Aminah powers up and out. Aminah drops down, Harley rolls over then bypasses Aminah to LARIAT! The fans cheer, Harley runs and KNEES Aminah low. Then a RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! The fans fire up again and Harley stands Aminah up. Aminah throat chops, then straitjackets for the NECKBREAKER! Harley flounders to a corner, Aminah mocks the fans, then she runs in, but into an ELBOW! Harley runs up, ducks the lariat and ENZIGIRIS! The fans fire up for Harley, she ducks Aminah’s roundhouse to pump handle!
Harley lifts for the PUMP HANDLE SAIDO! The fans fire up with Harley, “FEEL THE WRATH!” And then she dragon sleepers, for HER FINISHING MOVE! Cover, Harley wins!
Winner: Harley Cameron, by pinfall
Aminah certainly did #FEELTHEWRATH, and Harley goes right to commentary for our main event! Will Harley have a good time watching Komander & Hologram officially debut as a team? Or will Dralistico y Mortos make everything tranquilo?
Backstage interview with Don Callis.
Lexy is with cruddy Callis and brings up all that is going on within the Family. We have not seen Kyle Fletcher since the brutal cage match at Revolution, and- Callis stops Lexy there. He says we all know what she’s up to here. She is passive aggressively getting Callis all worked up about the cage match, but here’s the thing. When you have Kyle Fletcher, just 26 years old, and already the future of pro-wrestling, “you have the luxury of putting nights like Revolution in the rearview mirror. What I’ve got planned for Kyle Fletcher, what we’ve got planned, is gonna dwarf anything that your little brain could possibly fathom!”
But one thing she said is right: Everyone wants to see Kyle! So tonight is a little treat. Ladies and gentlemen… The Protostar, the future of wrestling, and the New God of Pro-Wrestling, Kyle BAH GAWD Fletcher! Yes, Kyle indeed steps into frame, and he says there has been a lot of talk and rumors that he was in some hospital bed, licking his wounds, but he is here to set the story straight. Yes, the cage match, the entire rivalry with Ospreay, has changed Kyle. But one thing that has not changed is the fact that he is destined to be the greatest of all time!
So he will be at Dynamite this Wednesday, and he’ll make it very apparent what is next for The Family, and for The Protostar, Kyle Fletcher. Say his full name, baby! Callis and Kyle hug it out, are maybe feeling a little too good, but just what is next for the DCF in AEW?
BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!
Tony Khan has decided what’s next for Kyle: Brody King! Will the King of Death prove the Hounds of Hell are not done yet? Or will The Protostar use him as a stepping stone to the top? Then, it is some big meaty men slapping meat as “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs takes on Mark Davis. Will Hobbs finally get past the Don Callis Family with this? Plus, after Megan Bayne and Toni Storm each said their piece tonight, we’re getting a tag team match! Megan again teams with Penelope Ford against the reunited #ThunderStorm! Can La Mera Mera get her own revenge while helping Timeless Toni tune up for Dynasty?
And Kenny Omega not only returns, he is back in action against Blake Christian! Will the Best Bout Machine use the Vanilla Babyface as an appetizer for that big International Championship Triple Threat at Dynasty? And last but not least, after Dax Harwood left Cope hanging last week, Tony Schiavone will interview #RatedFTR to get to the bottom of this divide. All this when AEW arrives in St. Paul, Minnesota!
Los Titanes del Aire VS La Faccion Ingobernable!
This one has been a long time coming. Hologram was put on the shelf because of Dralistico, Mortos y Rush, but he was able to reboot, rebuild and refresh in time to help Komander fight back. Can the Titans of the Air fly high over LFI? Or will Dralistico y Mortos stampede over them like rampaging bulls?
The teams sort out, the ref has to keep them back, and then Dralistico starts against Hologram. Harley claims to have no idea who “Harley-gram” really is, but whoever she is, she has a fantastic chest. Wait, Mortos CLOBBERS Komander! The fans boo, but Hologram dodges, and Mortos CLOBBERS Darlistico! Hologram fires hands, Mortos headlocks, but Hologram goes up the ropes! Hologram then flips free, SOBATS, and whips. Hologram ducks under then hurdles over Mortos. Mortos leaps over, runs back up, ARABIAN PRESS and a roll! The fans fire up, Hologram dodges Mortos to then tilt-o-whirl and DEJA VU-

Komander runs to jump, spin, and wheelbarrow for the arm-drag! Komander fires up, the fans fire up, but Harley says she has to go now? Harley needs to call her friend.

Mortos drags Hologram up, SMACKS him back down, and Dralistico sends Komander into railing! Then Dralistico drags Komander up, RAILING BACKBREAKER! Dralistico shoves Komander back into the ring, then sits him up to go after the mask! The ref reprimands, Dralistico stops, and Dralistico argues with the ref. Dralistico then drags Komander up, brings him around, and whips him to ropes. Dralistico ELBOWS Komander down, tags in Mortos, and Mortos fires up. Mortos NECK TWISTS Komander! Cover, TWO! Komander stays in this, but Mortos clamps onto him again. Mortos YANKS Komander up with his mask to then SLAM him down!
Mortos stands Komander back up to SMACK him down! Komander goes to ropes, Mortos storms up, and Mortos wrenches Komander to tag in Dralistico. Komander tires to fight back but LFI still mugs him. Dralistico CHOPS Komander, then says uno mas! But then Dralistico DECKS Komander! Komander rises up, and Darlistico KICKS the leg out! Dralistico dusts himself off, puts up the ingobernable fist, then looms over Komander. Abrahantes coaches Komander, but Dralistico has him in a modified Half Crab! Komander endures, Dralistico lets go, and the fans rally up. Dralistico stands Komander up, whips him to the corner, then runs up to SPLASH!
Dralistico sits Komander down, goes side to side, and SUPERKICKS! Dralistico taunts Hologram, then soaks up the heat. But wait! “Harley-gram” is here! And suspiciously wearing gear just like Harley’s. Dralistico TOSSES Hologram in just for fun, then stands him up to CHOP! Dralistico runs at Komander in the other corner, but Komander breaks free!

Winners: Los Titanes del Aire, by pinfall
A powerful first match as a true duo, and LFI is in retreat! Will Komander & Hologram start to take over AEW? Will “Harley-gram” be along for the ride?
My Thoughts:
A great second part to Slam Dunk Weekend, and again I like just one hour Collision. As they did last night, the title match opened, and it was great stuff. But of course Death Riders retained, a random special episode was not where they’d lose the titles. Plus, The Cru went after Top Flight to restart their rivalry. Very good promo from Okada to talk down to the Hounds, and very good promo from Kyle & Callis to talk themselves up. Kyle VS Brody will be great stuff, but I feel like Okada and Brody can circle back around to a rematch for Dynasty. It’s mostly that Brody won’t take kindly to Okada calling him and Buddy “b*tches” again.
Great match from Bandido VS Johnny, and a very good promo segment with The Learning Tree. Bandido getting the mask back was good stuff, and I bet we’ll get one more ROH World Championship match between Bandido and Jericho. I would hope this time Bandido wins and we can start moving towards a Learning Tree fallout with Bill turning on Jericho. Supercard of Honor isn’t until May, maybe we can build up other names from within the ROH roster to start challenging for the top title. And very good promo from The Undisputed Kingdom to hype up both the eventual Garcia VS Cole 3 and FTR VS Kyle & Roddy 3 matches. Those might even be at Dynasty.
And of course we got story tie-ins of Harley with LFI. Harley got a good win over Aminah, and she of course played a part in Los Titanes winning over LFI. Rush needs to return to have a talk with Mortos, and of course this “Beauty & The Beast Mortos” story is going to keep on going until Harley-gram is exposed as Harley.
My Score: 8.8/10

Best Wrestler Alive Open Challenge: Max Caster VS ???
Slam Dunk Saturday returns and Platinum Max is already in the ring. He has the mic to tell Omaha, “You are looking live at the Best Wrestler Alive!” The fans boo that claim given Caster is 0-5 at his own challenge. But Caster still says everyone knows that Caster is a very busy man. He has a packed schedule, unlike his former tag team partner… The fans chant, “We Want Bowens!” but Caster says he has some news for us: Bowens ain’t here, and he ain’t coming back, cuz Caster ran his ass outta AEW! The fans boo more, but Caster says surely there are a lot of Maximaniacs here today, so time to give them what they want, and that is to chant his name!
Okay, here goes! “Let’s Go, Max! You’re the Best Wrestler Alive! Let’s Go, Max! You’re the Best Wrestler Alive!” The fans boo that stupid chant, so Caster says it’s four on the floor. But anyway, let’s get to business! Who can survive the Best Wrestler Alive? The man to answer is… HOOK! Will the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil make sure Caster finally learns his lesson?
The bell rings and the fans sing, “Hook is gonna kill~ you!” Caster says before they start, he knows Hook has a lot to say, so he should get it off his chest. Then Caster throws the mic at Hook! Caster attacks in that distraction, then CLUBS away on Hook! The fans boo, Caster whips but Hook reverses! Caster goes up and over, keeps moving, then ducks ‘n’ dodges. Caster cartwheels, cheers himself on, but then Hook trips Caster up! The fans cheer, and Hook clamps on REDRUM!! Caster TAPS, Hook wins!
Winner: Hook, by submission
Well, now it’s 0-6. Will Caster ever realize he’s not the Best Wrestler Alive?
Backstage interview with Queen Aminata.
Lexy Nair is with the One True African Queen, and notes that we are moments away from the tiebreaker with Julia Hart. They are 1-1, but Aminata won the previous match, so how does that momentum have her feeling? Aminata says she is- interrupted by Serena Deeb. Deeb says that was a fantastic win against Julia. What has she been telling Aminata? Listen to Deeb and you win! And tonight, it’s the rematch, and lucky for Aminata, Deeb came prepared. She has another playbook. This is 1000 holds, something Deeb has worked on for 20 years. It is everything Aminata needs to know to beat Julia, or anyone for that matter.
Deeb says it is all in this book. She hasn’t lied to Aminata yet, has she? Aminata tells The Professor thanks, but no thanks. Aminata is confident she can win this third match on her own. Aminata heads out and Deeb says well, we’ll see about that. What is Deeb about to do to test Aminata? Or will having one more match with the Princess of the Black Throne more than enough?
Julia Hart VS Queen Aminata!

Backstage interview with Harley Cameron.
Lexy is with the wild Aussie and brings up that tomorrow night, Slam Dunk Sunday, we see Harley get back in action! Plus, Komander & Hologram will take on Dralistico & Beast Mortos. Mortos has had some rather intriguing interactions with “Harley-gram.” Harley says, “Oh, Lexy, Lexy, Lexy. Lucha Libre is a fascinating and amazing world. And I’m sure tomorrow’s match will be fantastic. And y’know what? Tomorrow night, yes, I do have a match, but! I will also stick around and be on commentary for that match. So I don’t really see the point of us discussing the romantic capabilities of a beast, y’know?”
Lexy says yeah, but uh, isn’t “Harley-gram” just Harley? NO, FEEL THE WRATH! Harley runs off, but will Harley be able to focus on her match with Mortos around? Will Mortos be able to focus on his match with Harley around?
Six Man Tag: “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs, Mark Briscoe & Rocky Romero VS The Don Callis Family!
While the Book of Hobbs is stuck on a chapter involving the Don Callis Family, he has decided to conglomerate with the Sussex County Chicken & Azucar! Will Briscoe & Rocky help Hobbs get through the “writer’s block?” Or will Konosuke Takeshita, Brian Cage & Lance Archer make sure #EverybodyDies?
The trios sort out and Briscoe starts against Konosuke. Don Callis is on commentary and Schiavone is sure he is not in a good mood over his guy, Mark Davis, missing out on the International Championship. Callis focuses instead on the Six Man Tag, and his “three physical freaks” of the Callis Family. Briscoe and Konosuke tie up, Briscoe headlocks, and Omaha rallies for #DemBoys. Konosuke powers up and out, Briscoe RAMS him, but Konosuke comes back to run Briscoe over! Things keep moving, Konosuke bypasses Briscoe but Briscoe slides under. Briscoe springs up to hit the crane stance! Callis says that is disrespectful!
Konosuke blocks the crane kick, spins Briscoe around, and back suplexes, only for Briscoe to land out. Konosuke kicks low, whips Briscoe to a corner, but Briscoe goes up and out.

Cover, Don Callis Family wins!
Winners: The Don Callis family, by pinfall
Omaha was served up some meat and chicken with sugar on top, but the Don Callis Family ate it all! Will this win help Konosuke head back for a title opportunity in time for Dynasty? Will Hobbs at least be allowed to move on from the Don Callis Family?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision here for just the first half of the Slam Dunk Weekend, as recorded Wednesday night after Dynamite. I kinda like Collision being just one hour, but obviously they’ll go back to two hours on one night next week. Opening with the TNT Championship was quite the surprise, but that did help it go the full 20 minutes, which was a particularly clever move here. Garcia keeps the title but Cole was very close, so maybe we get a third match where they extend or completely do away with the time limit to get a definitive winner. And at that point, I would think Adam Cole wins to finally have a singles title in AEW.
Good stuff in Caster again losing his own Open Challenge. Good win for Hook as it’s been a minute since he’s had a singles match. With Caster harping on Bowens being absent, this really needs to culminate with Bowens answering the challenge, winning that first time, but then Caster wanting a rematch. Then that match will be awesome stuff, but still ultimately won by Bowens to get it in Caster’s head that he can’t just say he’s the Best Wrestler Alive and put it on a piece of paper. Then we can see Caster take his character in another direction, maybe do some soul searching. Or more likely, just double down and be even more insufferable.
Very good match for Hart VS Aminata 3, hard to say if it was that much better than the previous, but Hart winning makes sense with Aminata VS Deeb still needing to happen. A shame the Aminata-Deeb feud had to build in the background of the Aminata-Hart feud, but it’s not like they could do more on a week to week basis. Unless… Well, snark aside, Aminata will surely take Deeb up on at least that Pure Rules match for a first-time-ever in the Women’s Division, and I would love for a Women’s Pure Championship to be created in time for Supercard of Honor. It actually works out that Supercard had to be pushed back to avoid clashing with WrestleMania, because the pacing of the Women’s Division definitely can/will go all the way to May.
Very good promo from Harley to not just hype up Slam Dunk Sunday, but to also poke fun at how she is so obviously Harley-gram, and that there is some, uh, animal magnetism between her and Mortos. And Schiavone said that Komander & Hologram VS Mortos & Dralistico will be the main event, so you can bet there will be shenanigans involving Mortos and Harley/Harley-gram.
My Score: 8.8/10
