PLAY BY PLAY
Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.
It was last week after the show when Lexi Nair regrouped with the Minion In Training, and said this is another emergency MEM, Minion Empowerment Meeting. Deep breaths, and stand your ground. What happened last time won’t happen again, Lexi promises. Athena steps in and Billie apologizes. Her best isn’t good enough, apparently. But she’s trying, she really is. She handed her the belt, what more is she to do? Athena says if it takes yelling, screaming and choking Billie, blasting her in the face and kicking her in the gut, to get even an ounce of violence out of Billie, then Athena will do that every time. Does she hear her?
Athena is here to inspire Billie to be better. Not to be trash like Kentucky, or “Diabla,” or that “retired hussy,” Mercedes Martinez, but to be Billie Starkz, Minion #400,237 and three-quarters. Does she understand? Yes, ma’am. Then as of right now, Billie has impressed Athena, and her suspension has been lifted. Don’t smile, don’t cheer. And don’t make Athena regret this. Athena leaves, Lexi & Billie double fist bump in celebration. That was a good MEM. But will Billie make it to where Athena is fully impressed and makes Billie a full-fledged Minion?
Tony Nese w/ Mark Sterling VS Serpentico!
Of course Smart Mark interrupts Bobby Cruise so that he can say everyone knows this is The Premier Athlete with him. And today, they are celebrating two massive victories over “that fat slob,” Ethan Page! Too bad they have to celebrate in Wichita, Kansas! Nese takes the mic to tell Wichita that today is a great day. The stable finally puts Ethan Page behind them and move on to what really matters, and that is Nese helping each and every one of the “fat disgusting losers.” But Nese understands that some still need some convincing. So he will make his match an example of what a Premier Athlete looks like.
And then after the match, get excited because we’re all going to do some GROUP TRAINING~! #SNAKEMAN makes his entrance, and the fans are much more excited for his streamers than Nese’s workout session. The Code of Honor is upheld but barely, and the fans fire up with the bell. Nese tells them to relax or they’re gonna have heart attacks. The fans chant for “S A P! S A P!” Nese mocks it as “F A T! F A T!” They tie up, Nese puts Serpentico in a corner, and then lets off while doing jumping jacks. Fans boo but Serpentico resets with Nese. They circle, tie up, and Nese waistlocks to SLAM Serpentico!
Nese flexes, Sterling cheers but the fans boo. Nese taunts Serpentico, they reset and circle again. Fans taunt Nese’s “flabby tits” and rally up behind Serpentico. The two tie up, and Nese scoops to SLAM! Then he scoops to SLAM again! Serpentico writhes but Nese says he’s got the “tightest tits!” Nese whips Serpentico hard into a corner and Serpentico bounces off buckles. Fans boo but Nese soaks up the heat. Nese stands Serpentico up, puts him in a Tree of Woe, and he stomps away! Fans boo, Nese runs in and stops, to do AB CRUNCH KICKS! The ref counts, Nese lets off and says that’s why he’s got the 8 pack.
Nese goes back for Serpentico but Serpentico SLAPS him! Nese runs in but Serpentico BOOTS him! Nese returns again, into a RANA! Seprentico then runs up to COMPLETE SHOT! Cover, TWO! Nese staggers up, Serpentico mule kicks, forearms and SUPERKICKS! Serpentico whips, Nese reverses but Serpentico sunset flips. Nese rolls through to SOBAT! Sterling says make Serpentico pay, and Nese pump handles. Scoop and- Wait, Ethan Page is on a mic? He asks if the match is happening already, and apologizes for being late. It took him some time to get the gear on. Ethan then goes out onto stage to get Tony’s attention!
Ethan is in shiny hot pink gym shorts and bright green sweatbands as he says he heard about group training. He knows they’re in the middle of a match right now, sorry, but it’s fine. He’ll be here for the training after. Serpentico rolls Nese up! SERPENTICO WINS!!
Winner: Serpentico, by pinfall
Ethan celebrates with Serpentico as they get the better of Nese! Ethan says hold on, wait. Let’s ask the winner a question: should they cancel group training? “GET IT OUTTA HERE!” Well, instead of group training, let’s go celebrate! Revenge is sweet for All Ego, will Nese have no choice but to revisit this rivalry?
Backstage interview with Darius Martin & Action Andretti.
Lexi is now with The Air Wolf & The Sight to See, and they are preparing for a huge 8 Man Tag against Shane Taylor Promotions & The Wingmen. There is history here with STP, where is the confidence right now? Darius says he is very confident, because the past few weeks, STP started a war that they cannot finish! Action even tells Shane that while he always has soldiers by his side, Action & Darius now have a couple soldiers on their side. In steps The Infantry! And Capt. Shawn Dean tells Peter Avalon that he already knows that Cap Don’t Cap. And last week, The Wingmen got sent to Boot Camp!
Carlie Bravo says Lee Moriarty & Shane Taylor already have big problems with them, so boys, have no fear, The Infantry is here. And the Infantry is backed by Martin & Andretti, and you know they stay ready. Copy that! These four are ready for war, but will they be able to score the victory?
ROH Women’s World Championship Proving Ground Match: Athena VS Heidi Howitzer!
Billie helping out aside, The Fallen Goddess still got past the OG Badass, and now the search for worthy contenders begins again. Will Athena keep her singles streak going into 42-0? Or will she be shot down by a Howitzer?
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and we’re on the clock. The two tie up, Athena waistlocks but Howitzer wrenches and wristlocks. Athena handsprings, wrenches, but Howitzer blocks the arm-drag. “Hah, you suck!” Howitzer then whips Athena to run her over! Howitzer laughs at Athena, “I thought you were the champ.” Howitzer scoops but Athena slips free and shoves. Howitzer ducks ‘n’ dodges and BOOTS! Athena bails out, Howitzer talks more trash but Billie coaches Athena up. But Howitzer builds speed! Athena avoids the baseball slide dropkick, but Howitzer avoids the boot!
Howitzer scoops, but Athena fights free to suplex and shift, to then fireman’s carry and WASTELAND SLAMÂ to the floor! Fans fire up and Billie cheers! Athena then RAMS Howitzer into steel steps! Billie says “That’s what you get!” and Athena paces. Athena drags Howitzer up to CLUB her down, and then she puts Howitzer in the ring. Fans rally, Athena stalks Howitzer, and drags her up by her colorful hair. But Howitzer JAWBREAKERS! Billie says, “Don’t take that!” So Athena fires off forearms! Athena CLUBS away on Howitzer to bring her down! Fans fire up, the ref counts, but Athena shouts “Don’t tell me what to do!!”
Athena drags Howitzer up, whips her to a corner, then waistlocks to GERMAN SUPLEX! And kips up! Fans fire up again and Athena watches Howitzer stir. Athena drags Howitzer up but Howitzer throws hands! Howitzer ROCKS Athena, then LARIATS! Howitzer whips, clotheslines in the corner, and then whips corner to corner. Athena goes up and up and FLYING CODE BREAKERS! Fans fire up as Athena lines up the shot, to DECK Howitzer! Cover, Athena wins!
Winner: Athena, by pinfall (denies Heidi Howitzer a title match)
And then she SUPERKICKS Howitzer just because! Athena puts the belt down, drags Howitzer up, and mocks Howitzer’s pain to then SMACK her off the belt! The Fallen Goddess makes another one bite the dust, and then shouts for Billie to get on her jogging. Will anyone ever take this title off of Athena? Or will Athena go to 50-0 and beyond?
Kyle Fletcher VS Lee Johnson!
The Aussie Arrow is now Don Callis Family after showing that killer instinct against Konosuke Takeshita, and he is still holding it down in ROH. Will Fletcher fly into the Like a Dragon Street Fight next Wednesday? Or will Big Shotty bring him down a notch?
As Johnson poses on the corner, Fletcher trips him up! Fletcher laughs but Johnson gets in his face. The ref separates the two, but The Code of Honor is skipped after that. The bell rings and fans rally up as the two circle. They tie up, are in a deadlock, and Fletcher puts Johnson in the corner. The ref counts, Fletcher lets off slowly, but then he shoves Johnson. Johnson keeps his cool, even as fans chant “AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!” “OI OI OI!” The two tie up again, Johnson powers Fletcher back and the ref counts. Johnson lets off, shoves Fletcher in return, and we see Shane Taylor Promotions liking what they see backstage.
Fletcher applauds as he resets with Johnson. They tie up, Johnson waistlocks and spins Fletcher to snapmare and cover, TWO!! Fletcher bails out, realizing how close that was! Johnson holds the ropes open, but then says hold on, and he opens the bottom ropes open. Fletcher says Johnson’s got jokes, goes around the way and lets the count climb a bit before he gets up and in. Fletcher and Johnson tie up, Fletcher headlocks, but Johnson slips free to headlock back. Fletcher powers up and out, Johnson goes up and over and rolls away. Johnson arm-drags and Fletcher bails out again! Fans rally up while Johnson eggs Fletcher on.
The ring count starts again but Johnson slides out this time. Fletcher slides in, Johnson follows, and Johnson avoids the sucker punch to DROPKICK Fletcher out of the ring! Fletcher flounders into the announce desk, Johnson again holds the ropes open, but Fletcher stays away. Fletcher wants a timeout but there’s no such thing! Johnson chases Fletcher around the way, but Fletcher SUPERKICKS! Fletcher asks, “Am I the smartest wrestler alive? Possibly.” Then Fletcher hits an APRON BACK SUPLEX! Crowns up and the fans cheer. Fletcher steps back into the ring, has the fans chant “AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE! OI OI OI!” then he springboard STOMPS Johnson!
Fletcher springboard STOMPS again! Johnson rises up, CHOPS, then drops to his knees again. Johnson rises to CHOP again, but he drops back down. Fletcher scoops to SLAM Johnson! Fletcher composes himself while Johnson writhes, and Fletcher tells the fans he wants to dominate but not hurt them. Fletcher drags Johnson up, puts him in a corner, and CHOPS! Fans fire up while Johnson sputters and falls over! Fletcher drags Johnson up, whips him to ropes, and CLOBBERS Johnson with an elbow! Cover, TWO! Fletcher stays cool but Johnson slaps some sense into himself. Fans rally up for “SHOTTY! SHOTTY!” as he goes to ropes.

Cover, Fletcher wins!
Winner: Kyle Fletcher, by pinfall
Shane Taylor Promotion is upset, but Lee Moriarty does say that this is what they’ve been talking about. Johnson could just join up. Shane says this is what people don’t get, this game is about numbers. How long does Big Shotty wanna keep losing on his own? Will he choose to win alongside powerful allies?
As for Fletcher, he is now ready to team with his allies in the Don Callis Family, will they tear it all down in Los Angeles? Or will Kenny Omega, Chris Jericho, Kota Ibushi & Paul Wight be the heroes of this story?
Leyla Hirsch VS Charlette Renegade w/ Robyn Renegade!
Still LEGIT and still hungry for the gold, Leyla’s already dealt with Robyn recently. Will she sweep the Renegades and prove herself worthy of Maria Kanellis’ help? Or will Charlette be the one to impress the First Lady of Wrestling?
The Code of Honor is slapped away by Leyla, the bell rings and she fires off forearms! Leyla whips, Charlette reverses but Leyla goes up, only to get caught in a fireman’s carry! But Leyla slips free, trips Charlette, and steps all over her. Fans are torn but Robyn sure is mad. Charlette RAMS into Leyla, then trips her to rain down fists! The ref counts, Charlette lets off and says she has ’til five! But then Robyn DECKS Leyla with a sucker punch behind the ref’s back! Charlette covers, TWO! Charlette CHOKES Leyla on the ropes, the ref counts, but Charlette lets off at 4. Robyn talks trash, Leyla takes a swipe!
Charlette SLAMS Leyla down, then hooks her up in a Camel Clutch, and fishhooks Leyla’s nose! The ref reprimands, Charlette shoves Leyla down, and cover, ONE!! Leyla is tougher than that but Robyn coaches Charlette. Charlette drags Leyla up, whips, and BOOTS her down! Then Charlette snap suplexes, bridges, TWO! Charlette argues the count but fans argue it back. Charlette drags Leyla up, fireman’s carries, but Leyla fights with elbows. Leyla waistlocks, to GERMAN SUPLEX!

Robyn leaves a chair in the ring and scrambles to distract the ref! Fans boo, but Charlette DECKS Leyla, then goes for the chair! Leyla wobbles, fans rally for “CHAIR SHOT! CHAIR SHOT!” Wait, Rachael Ellering runs out here to YANK Robyn down! The ref sees the chair! Charlette is without her weapon, and Leyla drags her down! LEGIT ARMBAR!! Charlette taps, Leyla wins!
Winner: Leyla Hirsch, by submission
Another win for Leyla, but she’s annoyed to see it was Ellering helping out again. Ellering tells the Renegades they won’t get away with that stuff, but then Leyla just leaves. Is she really going to only accept the help of Maria Kanellis, who isn’t even actually helping her? Or can the Queen of Strong Smile get through to her?
Athena and the Minions regroup backstage.
And she says she gathered them here for this newest MEM for two reasons. One: What was that crap on Collision with Willow Nightingale, Lexi!? Is she friends with Willow now or something?! Lexi tries to explain but Athena rants on about seeing them on social media, Lexi wishing Willow luck. What is all that crap?! Lexi was told to say that by the company. Legally, she had to. Well, never again. Tell ’em Athena said so. Lexi will now be demoted to Minion Number 1, no longer Bestie. Aw… As for Billie, she has her match with Ellering tonight, and she is not to take it lightly. Prove to Athena that “Sorry” is not just a quick fix. Show Athena your violence! Your anger! Beat the tar out of Ellering just like Athena did!
And third, even though she only said there were two reasons, Final Battle is on the way and it is in her hometown. So exciting! Sorry, no smiles. Athena cannot wait to see what porcelain hussy steps up so she can break them! Roll out! The trio moves on, will Billie prove herself worthy of Athena’s respect once and for all?
The Iron Savages w/ Jacked Jameson VS Cole Karter & Griff Garrison w/ Maria Kanellis-Bennett!
It is time to step into the Savage Sanctuary with Dirty Bulk Bronson & Beefcake Boulder! Will they make Maria’s “baby boys” sip the Savage Sauce while they’re living Hoss? Or can the Diamond in the Rough & The Ivy League MVP survive these jacked and juicy giants?
The teams sort out, Bronson starts against Griff and they uphold the Code of Honor. They tie up, Griff headlocks, but Bronson powers out.

Tag to Boulder, and Boulder scoops Karter to SLAM! Boulder runs, but Karter avoids the elbow drop! Karter runs to SLIDING LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Karter lands on the cover, TWO! Karter tries again, TWO! Karter flounders, tags Griff, and Griff runs in, but into a back drop! Karter sucker punches Boulder, then regroups with Griff. They both run, duck ‘n’ dodge, but Boulder DOUBLE FLAPJACKS!
Fans fire up for “BEEF! BEEF! BEEF!” Tag to Bronson, and Boulder whips Bronson, to DIVE! Direct hits on both Griff & Karter! Jameson says “YOU GOTTA SIP THE SAVAGE SAUCE~!” Bronson splashes himself with it, puts Griff in the ring, but Maria distracts Bronson by taking off her belt. And unpinning her dress to show off that swimsuit! Bronson is stunned, and then he says “I’M GONNA BUST~!!” Bronson rushes Maria, but she moves aside and Karter back drops Bronson to the ramp!! Griff DECKS Boulder off the corner and he falls on Jameson! Karter feeds Bronson to Griff to cover, TWO!
Fans rally but Griff stomps Bronson. Bronson goes to ropes, Griff CHOKES him, then puts him in the corner. Griff stomps a mudhole in, tags Karter, and Karter stomps a mudhole in. Tag to Griff, he stomps away. Karter tags back in and they both stomp away! Karter drags Bronson up to snap suplex! Cover, TWO! Karter drags Griff up, bumps him off buckles, and then tags Griff in. They mug Bronson, Griff runs in to STINGER SPLASH! Feed to a JUMP KNEE! Then BULLDOG KNEE SMASH COMBO! Cover, TWO! Bronson is still in this and the fans rally for the Savages but Griff rains down fists on Bronson!
Griff soaks up the heat, Maria applauds, and Griff stands Bronson up to whip and reel him into the cobra twist! Griff and Karter link hands for leverage! The ref misses it, but then they link up again! Jameson protests, but the ref misses it again. Karter and Griff link up again, but now the ref sees it! The ref reprimands, Karter lets go, and Bronson hip tosses free! Bronson elbows Karter, but Griff dropkicks the legs out! Tag to Karter and he stomps away. Fans boo but Karter wants Maria to watch this. Karter blows kisses, taunts the Savages, but Bronson back drops Karter! Hot tag to Boulder!

The fans fire up for the Savages but Maria cheers her boys. Bronson hobbles up to Griff but Griff YANKS him out of the ring!

A huge win for the big men, are they ready to go for that gold? Will Maria have to scoop up her boys with a spatula after tonight?
ROH shares the big news from last night’s Dynamite!
After successfully defending the ROH World Television Championship against Keith Lee, Samoa Joe would then say that he needs to be hungry to truly be the best. So while he wants MJF’s AEW World Championship, that means he must also be desperate, so he has VACATED the ROH World Television Championship!! So what does that mean for the ROH TV title? Tony Khan will be here on ROH TV next week to address that very thing!
Billie Starkz w/ Athena VS Rachael Ellering!
The Minion In Training wants to prove herself to the Fallen Goddess, but the Queen of Strong Smile wants to prove herself to the Board of Directors. Will Billie unleash the violence Athena is trying to instill in her? Or will she still win things her way?
The Code of Honor is upheld, as Athena allows it, and the bell rings. The two circle, tie up, and they go around. They end up on ropes, Billie puts Ellering in a corner but Ellering turns it around. Ellering lets off and ties up with Billie with knuckle locks. Ellering wrenches, Athena coaches Billie and Billie says she’s trying. Billie reaches for ropes but Ellering keeps her from them.

Backstage interview with Rachael Ellering.
Lexi says unfortunately, we saw what happened after her match with Billie. But on the bright side, Leyla showed up to help. What does this mean for them moving forward? Ellering says she loves pro-wrestling but hates losing, simple as that. Tonight was not her favorite night, but hey, she did have Leyla’s help so that’s reassuring. Maybe she’s getting through to her? Speaking of, Leyla walks past and Ellering thanks her for the help. Leyla stops Ellering there to say it wasn’t about Ellering, it was about not owing debts. They’re even now but they’re also done. But then Maria is there! Isn’t this so cute? They’re like besties now!
It’s not what it looks like, Maria. No, it is exactly what it looks like: Leyla is helping Ellering and Ellering is helping Leyla. But Leyla still wants to be on Maria’s team. Oh, it looks like Leyla already has a team. So why not they team up and have a match, see how that goes? Then Maria will decide if she wants to help Leyla or not. Leyla sighs, but will she and Ellering actually make a legit combination?
Gravity VS Dralistico w/ Jose!
The brother of Bandido takes on the brother of Rush, both hoping to follow in the ROH World Championship footsteps of those two men. Will the Astronaut of Lucha reach the same heights as his brother? Or will the Prince of Silver & Gold reach the gold just as El Toro Blanco did?
Fans chant “Let’s Go, Gravity, Let’s Go!” and Gravity joins in with the stomp-stomp. The Code of Honor is upheld, only so Dralistico can then flip Gravity off! The bell rings and the two circle. They rush in, tie up, Dralistico waistlocks then SLAMS, grabs an arm, but Gravity uses that to arm-drag! Gravity kips up, Dralistico runs him over to cover, ONE!

ROH World Championship: Eddie Kingston VS Angelico w/ Serpentico!
While Jay Lethal is hunting down this title, this match here is because The Mad King was too rough on #SNAKEMAN for the South African Stud’s liking. Will Angelico not only avenge his tag partner but take the top spot in ROH? Or will Eddie keep his promise to Lethal to be the one to beat Lethal to a pulp?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if the Double Championship Reign ends in Wichita!
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the fans are all behind Eddie. Eddie and Angelico circle, feel things out, but then back away. They step up, tie up, and each man goes for a leg from the outside. Those cancel out so Angelico switches to a waistlock. Eddie wrenches out, wristlocks, and fans rally.

Eddie reels Angelico in to CLUB him on the back. Eddie then gut wrenches, but Angelico slips free to arm-drag and lateral press, TWO!!
Fans fire up as Eddie and Angelico get up. Angelico PUNTS Eddie in the face! Then he steps and rolls, LA CASITA! TWO!! Eddie stumbles, but he URAKENS!! High stack, TWO?!?

NORTHERN LIGHTS BOMB!! Cover, Eddie wins!!
Winner: Eddie Kingston, by pinfall (still ROH World Champion)
And the Mad King keeps his crown! But he still shows Angelico respect with the Code of Honor, and fans cheer the sportsmanship. Final Battle is coming, and that is where Jay Lethal will be waiting. Will December 15th be the final battle for one of these icons?
Dalton Castle speaks.
“Does this look easy? Like, does it look like I don’t care about what you see as a viewer? I care ONLY about you! I wanna give you exactly what you deserve when you sit home and you watch me compete. With every bit of strength in my body, with every beat of my heart, I want you to see that I wanna give you the show that you deserve! So to sit here and let people like Eddie Kingston muddy the ROH airwaves… I just wanna…! UGHGHGH! Y’know, Eddie Kingston, you’re the ROH World Champion. I’ve been in your position before. And you are FLOUNDERING in opportunity! You are throwing it away!
“You think you’re tough? You think you’re a street fighter!? Look at me! LOOK AT ME! How am I doing? I’ve been spending DAYS on the street, I haven’t slept in weeks! And that’s because I can’t sit back and let you fill these viewers brains’ with so much ordinary. I put my face through a window last night. I walked by my favorite fondue place, I wanted to eat some cheese. It was closed. So I SMASHED the window! I smashed it, just like I’m gonna do to your sternum! You see, Eddie? I’m gonna put this face directly through your sternum and I’m gonna stop your heart! And then I’m gonna pin you and give the people what they deserve, and that’s a ROH World Champion that they can sink their teeth into.”
Castle points at the camera and then leaves, is The Peacock going to change everyone’s plans for Final Battle?
My Thoughts:
A great episode of ROH, even for being an hour and 47 minutes because so much of this episode felt like it mattered! The only match I skipped was Josh Woods’ because it was clear he was gonna squash that guy and he did. And even matches that didn’t have any real story behind it were really good quality, not squashes. I knew I had to cover Gravity VS Dralistico because of how good both guys are, and I definitely feel right about that. Fletcher VS Johnson was also a great match for just being out of nowhere, but the story there is Shane Taylor Promotions wanting Johnson to join up. The 8 Man Tag was also put together just because but it was great stuff. Great win for the Faces, and STP is definitely going to focus more on recruiting Johnson so they can be a trio.
Great tag match from Iron Savages VS Griff & Karter, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the Savages win that one. I’m a little unsure about the whole “I’m gonna bust!” and “Eat dat ass” and now Beefcake’s Titty City, but otherwise, I always knew they were a great team even when they were bear themed. Great mingling of stories in the women’s division, too, with Leyla sweeping The Renegades and Ellering helping with that, only for Billie to get a good win off Ellering. Good promo with Maria, too, and I’m thinking Leyla & Ellering VS Renegades happens before Leyla & Ellering go after Athena & Billie to see if someone earns a title match for Final Battle.
And also good mingling of stories through Spanish Announce Project. Ethan Page helps Serpentico get one over on Nese to set up the rematch, and then Angelico has that awesome main event match with Eddie. But I figured Eddie would retain, Jay Lethal is waiting. Though I do appreciate that Castle shifts focus from the TV Championship to the World Championship so that he and Eddie can have a title match before Final Battle. Pretty sure Eddie retains then, too, but Castle might prove himself worthy Tony Khan’s idea for the vacated ROH World TV Championship. Y’know, the title Castle and Joe never got to settle the score over even though that was a thing and Tony Khan’s attention is too divided.
My Score: 8.6/10

As Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway make their way out, #BigStoke has a mic and he has them cut the music. Stokely has some good news and some bad news.

Okada bails out and the fans boo. Briscoe waits on Okada while commentary tells Callis he and Okada committed the most despicable thing in all of wrestling. Callis of course says it was the most shrewd tactical move in the history of wrestling. Okada takes his time returning into the ring, and then he circles with Briscoe.

The ref counts again, Briscoe stops at 4, and he whips corner to corner. Okada reverses but Briscoe goes up and out.

The Problem is always a factor, but this isn’t done as Yuta & The Bucks beat up on Joe! Then the Bucks SUPERKICK Swerve! Moxley has a SLEEPER on Swerve, then feeds him to the SUPERKICKS! Moxley puts the SLEEPER back on, but HERE COMES HANGMAN!! The Cowboy told us about the ringside ban, but also mentioned that once the match was over, it was fair game!

Hangman says he told them, they stay out of his business or else! But now Moxley has the briefcase! Only for Hangman to spot him first. Moxley is frozen in place, and now The Opps & Ospreay get in the ring! The Maniac decides discretion is the better part of valor, and The Death Riders are in retreat. But there’s no running from what’s coming! 24 days remain before All In, will they be the last 24 days Moxley has as champion?
My Thoughts:
Awesome night for AEW’s first show in Mexico, even with things going about how I expected. For one, Mone of course won the title, because why else would they even do this match if not to give her one more belt? Though, what’s wild is that she picked up another belt without much hype or press from AEW. I guess European Wrestling Alliance hopes this gets them some attention. But good stuff with Toni Storm’s noir video and the sneak attack. And I would hope Toni retains the title at All In to keep Mone from going Ultimo Dragon just yet.
Cash Wheeler and Claudio Castagnoli both had travel issues, so I understand subbing people in. But did a 12 Man Tag really need to become a 14 Man Tag for it? And seeing as how I don’t cover CMLL’s own programming, I have NO idea why Atlantis Senior & Junior are getting booed. Is it a “Cena Wins LOL” situation where Junior is winning too much? That’s the only thing I can really think of offhand. But naturally, the Faces of that match won, as The Don Callis Family was rolling last week and needed humbling. I would think we still get Adam Cole VS Kyle Fletcher 2 now, and maybe Kyle wins the title so that the Don Callis Family has something.
Although, Callis seems to be bringing Okada into the fold for whatever reason, so he could end up bringing the “Unified” Continental & International Championship to the family. Okada VS Briscoe was great, and naturally Okada got the win. Mistico VS MJF was great stuff, up until MJF gave up and gave Mistico the win there. I know MJF loves getting heat, but him being the first man to snatch Mistico’s mask away like that is some HUGE heat. Also, I think I said it way back during some feud Penta had in AEW, but are masks really sacred if they’re willing to let them get ripped, stretched, and even yanked away? Or has that been lucha libre kayfabe all along? Either way, great stuff with JetSpeed and the other luchadores showing up, lots of matches set up with that.
Great Fatal 4 Way, and great win for Hologram to stay undefeated, but I will again criticize needing to do money prizes for these things. They should’ve set Hologram up for a title match twice over by now but TK is apparently making Hologram his top undefeated guy. Like if Goldberg was more than just big and strong and could actually do stuff… Also, while they obviously didn’t work together the entire time, I just feel like Ricochet having Lio Rush & Action Andretti become his crew (what with them being CRU and all) is the right move. Or perhaps this story of finding a faction is going to be an ongoing gag that no one likes Ricochet and would never follow him.
Then a great 10 Man Tag main event, though a little redundant considering Anarchy in the Arena was only a few weeks ago. Still good stuff for everybody, especially Mortos since he got to sub in for Claudio. Of course Marina gets involved so that the Heels win, but great stuff with Hangman going after Moxley. Hangman did a great job in his promo speaking Espanol to show respect to the fans. Naturally, Moxley gets away, that’s his whole thing. I really hope Ospreay, Swerve and The Opps keep the Death Riders and Bucks at bay so Hangman doesn’t get screwed over at All In. It’d be garbage if, after all this time and energy, it doesn’t pay off with Hangman as the triumphant hero.
My Score: 9/10
