Billie Starkz speaks.
“I just don’t get it. I don’t! The one time we had time off, there’s a hit on the boss.” Billie is of course referring to Nyla Rose finding Athena at Athena’s own wrestling school, beating her down, and even choke slamming her through a door like you would through a table! Billie’s ready to take Nyla out at the knees! She wants to swing first, and break Nyla’s neck! Lexi Nair calms Billie down. She knows they’re all about the baddest swinging first, but in this instance, the idiot is the one who swings first, so they need to be smart about this. They take a deep breath but Billie lets it out in growls. Lexi says they should watch some Friends.
No, Billie doesn’t want to! But Lexi points out Billie has her 8 Woman Tag tonight and how many of those ladies are in the running for the ROH Women’s Television Championship. Billie sees what Lexi means. Billie just has to refocus. Boss Athena wants Billie to go after that title, so that title is gonna be Billie’s. No one gets in her way. Lexi says she can even take notes. Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready. Billie thanks Lexi for calming her down. She feels good, she feels great. BUT SHE’S STILL ANGRY! She wants to beat Nyla’s face in!! Lexi keeps Billie back and tells her to breath. Just breath. Billie calms down again, will she settle for taking that anger out on her opponents tonight?
ROH World Tag Team Championships: The Undisputed Kingdom VS The Iron Savages!
Matt Taven & Mike Bennett have these belts back after the devilish plot cooked up by Adam Cole, but they’re back in ROH to defend their kingdom. Will they still be undisputed after tonight? Or will Dirty Bulk Bronson & Beefcake Boulder break through to add some gold to the Savage Sanctuary?

A big win to start off this newest reign! They say third time is the charm, so will the third time around be the best reign yet for Taven & Bennett?
Backstage interview with Robyn Renegade, Taya Valkyrie, Leyla Hirsch & Rachael Ellering.
Lexi is with the team Billie will be facing tonight, and says with the ROH Women’s Television Championship Tournament on the horizon, this 8 Woman Tag will showcase the ROH Women’s Division. This is an unlikely quartet, how did this come together? Robyn wouldn’t say any of this is “together.” She’ll say it now that she can’t stand Taya, she thinks Rachael is an overgrown Oompa Loompa, and Leyla is so short, she can walk under a door. So when it comes to this match, Robyn will showcase herself, and the other three can do whatever they want. Deuces!
Taya says Robyn is so rude. Leyla hopes Robyn can back up her words. Rachael keeps positive by saying the mission stays the same. They must win! Singles, tags, quads, just win, baby! Taya says everyone knows she would never choose to team with any of them, but there is the Women’s TV Championship on the horizon, and it will be hers. So if they must be seen in public together, they’ll have to do something about everyone’s wardrobe. Leyla says do something about that hair. Lexi says Taya’s so stylish. Rachael says she was matching her shirt to Taya’s hair. But can this dysfunctional four find a way to win together?
8 Woman Tag: Billie Starkz, Kiera Hogan, Lady Frost & Queen Aminata VS Leyla Hirsch, Rachael Ellering, Taya Valkyrie & Robyn Renegade!
As Lexi said earlier tonight, this is certainly a showcase of the stars in the ROH Women’s Division, and everyone wants to shine! But will The Minion, The Hottest Flame, the Coolest Wrestler and the Queen of Guinea be leading the way into the ROH Women’s Television Championship Tournament? Or will The LEGIT, the Queen of Strong Smile, La Wera Loca and one half of the Renegade Sisters find a way to make it work?
The teams sort out, Billie starts against Robyn, and they keep the Code of Honor. But Robyn won’t let Billie walk away from her, and dares her to do something. So Billie pie faces her! They tie up, go around, and Robyn pulls hair! Frost tags in, Billie ROCKS Robyn, and then Leyla tags in. Leyla and Frost circle, tie up, and Frost knuckle locks, spins Leyla and drags her down to then bring her up. Frost waistlocks but Leyla wrenches out and whips. Frost boots from the corner, runs up, and cartwheels over to DROPKICK Leyla down! Fans fire up and Frost keeps moving. Leyla turns wheelbarrow into FACEBUSTER, then tags Rachael.
Fans rally as Rachael runs up to SLIDING BOOT! She drags Frost back up, fireman’s carries, but Frost fights free to tag Aminata! Fans fire up as Aminata and Rachael circle. Rachael fires a forearm, so Aminata ROCKS Rachael! Fans fire up, Rachael CHOPS, so Aminata DOUBLE CHOPS! Fans fire up more and Rachael ROCKS Aminata! And CHOPS, CHOPS, CHOPS! Aminata catches the haymaker to spin Rachael, snapmare her and PENALTY KICK! Aminata runs to SLIDING BOOT! Cover, TWO! Rachael CHOPS Aminata, swings but Aminata ducks. Aminata waistlocks, puts Rachael in the corner, and Kiera tags in.
Aminata hands Rachael off to Kiera and she CHOPS! Fans fire up as Kiera fires off on Rachael with forearms. Kiera whips, Rachael reverses and scoops! Rachel throws Kiera down, tags in Robyn, and Robyn ROCKS Kiera! Keira ROCKS Robyn! And BOOTS her, and ROUNDHOUSES! Kiera drop toeholds Robyn onto ropes, runs side to side and HIP ATTACKS! The fans fire up as Kiera YANKS the ropes to then step-up LEG DROPS! Cover, TWO! Robyn flounders to a corner, Kiera runs in but Robyn puts her on the apron. Kiera blocks a shot to ROCK Robyn again, then she ducks another shot to have a SLEEPER!
Robyn HOTSHOTS Kiera, sits her down, and runs side to side to BLAST Aminata before she BOOTS Kiera down! Robyn soaks up the heat, the ref is busy keeping Aminata back, and that all allows Taya to stomp away on Kiera! Fans boo but Taya puts Kiera in the ring. Robyn drags Kiera to a cover, TWO! Robyn is annoyed but she drags Kiera up. The fans rally, Robyn ROCKS Kiera, then tags Taya. Robyn and Taya mug Kiera, then Taya snapmares Kiera to run and SLIDING LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Kiera is still in this but Taya stays on her. Taya holds Kiera’s hand out to mock Kiera’s team, then she CLUBS Kiera down.
Taya bumps Kiera off buckles, runs back in, but blocks a boot. Taya KICKS the leg, puts Kiera in the ropes, and ROUNDHOUSES! Tag to Leyla and Taya runs, SLIDING GERMAN! Fans fire up, and Leyla drags Kiera to the cover. TWO, but Leyla facelocks Kiera for a snap suplex! Tag to Rachael, she runs up to SENTON! Cover, TWO! Fans rally for Kiera but Rachael drags her around. Rachael has the wristlock, tags to Robyn, and Robyn takes the handoff to clamp onto the arm. The fans rally as Kiera endures, but Robyn pulls hair.

Leyla LARIATS Aminata! Kiera SUPERKICKS Leyla! Robyn runs up but Kiera fires off! Robyn reels Kiera in, ducks her kick and pump handles for the BITTER END! But Frost kicks Robyn low and runs, cartwheel to Alabama Lift, AIR RAID CRASH! But Taya SPEARS Frost! Tag to Robyn, she runs up but Billie spins her around, KNEE SMASH and HEEL KICK! Billie then reels Robyn in, tucks the arms, STAR 10!! Cover, Billie’s team wins!
Winners: Billie Starks, Kiera Hogan, Lady Frost & Queen Aminata, by pinfall
The Minion makes good on making a statement! But wait! Here comes ABADON! The Living Dead Girl showed up last week without saying a word, and she does the same here! But it should be obvious, she wants her own part in the ROH Women’s Television Championship story! Will Billie’s plans be ruined at this rate?
Action Andretti speaks.
“Hey, man, Vikingo’s really talented, so I gotta make sure I got some protein in me before I go up against him.” He then sees a golf cart pulling up and it’s Top Flight! He says hey, and they’ve all got matches tonight, so they tell him to hop in. Darius says if there’s one thing about Top Flight & Andretti, it’s that they stay ready. These three cruise away, but will they be bringing the AAA Mega Championship home?
Backstage interview of Nyla Rose.
Lexi is with the Native Beast and just has to ask, “Why?” Why did she do that to Athena? Nyla says, “What kind of journalist are you? Pick the microphone up, talk into it like a proper lady.” But Nyla says as we’re aware and saw last week, except maybe not if Lexi was out minigolfing, Nyla went down to Texas and had a “little meeting” with Athena. They mutually decided that Nyla should be the new Minion Overlord. That’s impossible! Nyla has an MIT shirt and throws it over Lexi’s head! And in an impressive Cartman impersonation, Nyla tells Lexi, “You will respect mah authoritah!”
Nyla says that normally, she’s on the other side of things. But what she noticed, when she realized that she had a foot in the door to ROH, she could take her foot and squeak that door open and maybe, possibly get a modicum of opportunity here. Or she could just grab the headcase that used to run this place, take that bull by the horn, and throw that bull through the door and bust this sumbesh wide open and make a statement! So that is what Nyla did. Actions speak louder than words and Nyla’s a screamer! So Nyla thinks Athena should enjoy her time off that Nyla so graciously provided her.
Because if Athena shows back up here, Nyla will make another statement, and another statement, and another statement, until the whole world is listening. And Nyla will not STOP until there is ROH gold around her waist! Okay, grab your nine iron, Nyla loves her some minigolf. BILLIE STARKZ, WHERE YOU AT?! Lexi is fuming and speechless, but just what is about to happen here in ROH with Nyla “in charge?”
Backstage interview with Johnny TV & Taya Valkyrie.
Lexi is with Mr. & Mrs. TV Ready, they’re all excited, but she asks if he’s given any more thought to Dalton Castle’s challenge. Taya scoffs and Johnny says, “Y’know what? Yeah. NO! I’m not gonna have a match with Macho Man Randy Average!” The Bland Man can- BARGE IN HERE! Castle is furious that Johnny has said no! This is no longer about a match! Castle wants to SMASH Johnny’s face!! Taya uses Lexi as a shield while she helps Johnny get away, and the cheese starts flying! Johnny runs for it, uses his parkour skills, and even CHUCKS a couch cushion into Castle! Castle is only slowed down momentarily, so Johnny locks himself in another room!
Castle demands Johnny get out so he can punch Johnny’s face in, bite his lips off, and even eat his ears! Lexi asks what is happening! Castle says Johnny took everything from Castle! It should be Castle’s face on every screen! Castle collapses to the floor and Lexi sits with him. Lexi, you were supposed to ask him! She tried! Castle beats on the door again but Johnny says he’s not unlocking the door. Castle says he’ll stay here in front of this door, Johnny’s gotta come outta there some time!
ROH World Television Championship: Kyle Fletcher VS Christopher Daniels!
The Aussie Arrow continues on his roll as a fighting champion, and now he faces an ROH Grand Slam Champion in the Fallen Angel! Will Kyle continue to run the world? Or will Daniels take this title for the second time?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if Kyle continues towards history!
The Code of Honor is not upheld as Kyle is cocky as always. The bell rings, the fans are on Daniels’ side, but Kyle shrugs that off. Kyle and Daniels circle, tie up, and Daniels wrenches to a wristlock. Daniels wrenches again, wrangles Kyle with a top wristlock, and fans cheer. Kyle fights up, moves around, and he grinds a forearm into Daniels’ face. Kyle gets the headlock that way, then hits the takeover. Daniels endures, rolls things to a cover, TWO! Kyle grinds the hold, Daniels fights up and throws body shots. Daniels powers out, but Kyle runs him over! Kyle flexes and fans boo but Kyle gets moving.
Daniels drops down, gets up but Kyle runs Daniels over again! Kyle pie faces Daniels, gets moving again, but Daniels hip tosses him down! Cover, ONE!! Daniels arm-drags and he grinds Kyle down! Kyle endures, even as Daniels adds a chinbar. Kyle fights up, whips Daniels away, but Daniels slides under to then arm-drag again! Daniels is right back on the armlock but Kyle endures. Kyle fights up, claws at Daniels’ eyes, and puts Daniels in a corner. The ref counts, Kyle lets off, but then body shots! Kyle says that was clean, but fans boo. Daniels ELBOWS Kyle, goes up and leaps over. Daniels rolls, but Kyle runs up to BOOT him down!
Fans boo but Kyle just smirks as he paces around Daniels. Kyle drags Daniels to then rain down elbows right on Daniels’ forehead! Fans boo more as Kyle paces around again. Daniels goes to ropes, Kyle stalks up behind him, and Kyle CHOKES Daniels on the ropes by standing on him! Fans boo, the ref counts, but Kyle flexes. Kyle hops away at 4, then drags Daniels up. Kyle hears the fans rally for Daniels, and he scoops to SLAM! Kyle holds onto Daniels’ arm while mocking the fans. Kyle scoops and SLAMS again! He still has the wristlock while having the ref ask Daniels. Daniels pushes Kyle so Kyle drags him up.
Daniels fires a forearm! Kyle fires it back! Daniels fires another, so Kyle fires another! They go back and forth, Kyle fires a flurry, then swings, into the COMPLETE SHOT! Fans fire up while Kyle checks his face. Kyle crawls to a corner, Daniels rises up, and Daniels runs in to forearm smash! Then he hits a BIG back suplex! Kyle stands up, into the STO! Fans fire up with Daniels and he storms up on Kyle in a corner. Daniels climbs to rain down fists! Fans count along, Daniels goes all the way to TEN!

Daniels blocks the superkick to roll and underhook! ANGEL’S WINGS!!! Cover, TWO!?!
Kyle survives and Daniels can’t believe it! The fans are all fired up, though, “This is Awesome!” “ROH!” Daniels drags Kyle up, clinches, and URENAGES! Kyle is in the drop zone, and the fans fire up as Daniels heads for the corner. But Kyle anchors Daniels’ leg, then KICKS from below! Daniels swings but into the CHICKEN WING PLEX! Kyle runs to CALF KICK against ropes, and then he reels Daniels in! Fans boo as Kyle grins, and he lifts Daniels up, DON MOROCCO PILEDRIVER!! Cover, Kyle wins!
Winner: Kyle Fletcher, by pinfall (still ROH World TV Champion)
Three defenses in three consecutive weeks makes him 3-0! Will the Protostar make himself the winningest, fightingest and GREATEST ROH World Television Champion ever?
Backstage interview with Ethan Page.
Lexi is with All Ego and says we saw him get the big win against Tony Nese at Final Battle, and then another big win against Johnny TV here on ROH TV. Ethan & Scorpio Sky said they have big plans for 2024, so uh… Oh, is Lexi calling Ethan out for being vague? In pro-wrestling? No, he totally was, though. He just wants to dispel that now. “Vague goals bring vague results,” and he does not want that. He has brought it up on air many, many, many times that he made a promise to his daughter to win gold. Scorpio made that same promise, but they can’t just keep promising and have nothing come of it.
So Ethan is gonna say it right now, put it out there. After winning at Final Battle, he finally put certain stuff, certain people, behind him and he is getting back on the track to gold. But who else had a big win at Final Battle? Kyle Fletcher. Kyle etched his name into the history of one of the most prestigious titles in pro-wrestling, the ROH World TV Championship. So to not be so vague, and in case some haven’t picked up on it, Ethan is looking right at Kyle and is gonna take that ROH World TV title from him! So that is Ethan’s goal for 2024.
And one more thing. Ethan’s aware Kyle is part of the Don Callis Family, but is seeing Kyle show up on ROH solo. That is something Ethan respects. So while Ethan keeps an eye on Kyle, he wants Kyle to keep an eye on him and see what he does solo to earn Kyle’s respect, as well as earn his way to the title match. Lexi says not vague at all. When and where will All Ego get his shot at the Aussie Arrow?
AAA Mega Championship: El Hijo Del Vikingo w/ Alex Abrahantes VS Action Andretti!
Be careful not to blink because this match is about to get fast and furious! Top Flight wants gold anywhere and everywhere they can get it, will it be Lights, Camera, Action here tonight? Or will nothing stop Vikingo from becoming the greatest AAA Mega Champion ever?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if Vikingo is ready for Action!
The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the fans are on Vikingo’s side. The two circle, Action rushes in but Vikingo dodges to roll him up! TWO, Action sits on the hold, TWO! Action turns prawn hold right into a sunset flip, TWO! Vikingo sits on Action, TWO, but Vikingo stays on Action for a jackknife bridge! TWO as Action bridges up!

For all the high flying, it took a quick pin hold to finish this! Action and Vikingo keep the Code of Honor, will we see these two run it back some day?
My Thoughts:
A really good episode of ROH, though also an hour and 45 minutes. Nyla of course wins her match, with really good character work from her and Erica, but the best part was the promos from Billie and Nyla to add on from Nyla attacking Athena. Nyla acting like she took control of the Minions just because she beat down Athena is a great angle to have, and I hope it adds to both title builds. Billie wants to fight Nyla, that should definitely happen, and maybe Athena returns during Billie VS Nyla to help Billie win going into the ROH Women’s TV title tournament while also making Athena VS Nyla for the top title official.
As such good promo from Taya’s team before they lost to Billie’s team in a very good 8 Woman Tag, and that was also a good spot for Abadon to show up again. Basically, swap Robyn out for Abadon and there is the eight you could have in the three-round single-elimination bracket. Not sure when the next ROH PPV is, so there’s half a chance they’re delaying the title story until then, but it feels like this should be a sooner rather than later kinda thing. Great stuff from Dalton Castle with Johnny & Taya, though, Castle barging into the room was perhaps the best framed shot I’ve ever seen from ROH. Given Johnny doesn’t want to have a “match” with Castle, Castle VS Johnny should be a Street Fight, because then you can emphasize how it’s a fight.
Of the other just kinda filler matches, I do feel bad about skipping Claudio VS BK, that was great stuff, definitely not just some squash. Bryan Keith is getting great showing after great showing, just not sure where there’s an opening for him to get a title between AEW and ROH. Maybe the Pure Championship? Yuta needs a good feud, maybe Bryan can give him that. And another really fun showing for Iron Savages, but of course The Kingdom retain the tag titles. Great ROH TV Championship match, we all know Daniels can still go, but Kyle of course retains. Good promo from Ethan, and he’s going to have a great match with Kyle, just not sure he wins.
And great AAA Mega Championship match to close things out, Vikingo is always really exciting to watch and I think he even brought out a couple new things just for this. Half of tonight’s ROH was recorded at Daily’s Place, it was fitting Daily’s Place got the good stuff given it was AEW Homecoming week, and Action made for a good opponent since he can keep up with Vikingo. Vikingo has already set the records for most defenses and longest reign in AAA Mega Championship history, who knows when and where Vikingo gives up that belt.
My Score: 8.7/10

JOHN CENA IS HERE!
The fans already chant “Let’s Go, Cena!” “CENA SUCKS!” before the music even begins! Then they sing along, “JOHN CENA SUCKS~!” as Cena walks out in the custom London merchandise. Cena goes to the ring, “The Last Time Is Now” towel draped over the back of his head like the other times, then he sets the towel on the apron. Cena grabs a mic, the fans continue to duel, and Cena winds up before bringing the mic up. Only for Cody Rhodes to make his entrance! The fans sing along with the song, “WHOA~ OH~!” The pyro goes off, Cody high-fives the fans in the front row and along the ramp, then he heads to the ring.
We get the second “WHOA~ OH~” and pyro before Cody pounds on the steel steps and steps up into the ring. Cody and Cena circle each other a bit before Cody grabs himself a mic. The fans finish singing the song, “YOU’LL FOLLOW ME UNTIL THE END~! I AM MY KINGDOM!” The fans cheer, then change to singing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cena steps to Cody but Cody tells him, no no no. We listened to Cena talking for two weeks, so allow Cody to do his job for him! Cena will cook Cody, end him, but where does he want to start? There is so much to make fun of when it comes to Cody! For starters, Cody’s lisp.
Cody will give him this one: Stardust! Fans cheer for “STARDUST! STARDUST!” Cody says that must bother Cena, that is who he is wrestling at WrestleMania 41, his final time! What else can Cena go after? Oh, yes! Cody spots it in the crowd and brings up the “arm tattoo on his neck.” The fans again sing for “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cody keeps going: He got booed in a company he helped make. But Cena won’t go for that. Maybe Cody is struggling with the idea that Superman is truly dead. The fans duel for “Let’s Go, Cena!” “CENA SUCKS!” Cody says this brings him to his next point: Cena’s words have not matched his actions.
For these last two weeks, Cena has lied to the audience. The fans boo, and Cody says they used to ride together, sing Poncho & Lefty. Cena surely cared about Cody, and he for sure cared about the fans. Don’t even look at Cody, look at the fans and tell them the real reason why. The fans chant, “You Sold Out!” while Cena thinks on his words. Cena says he is not going to reduce himself and punch down to Cody’s level. Cody’s been protected long enough. Cena also won’t “cook” Cody, he’ll just BURY him! Just like Cena has buried everyone else! The fans have been saying for years that Cena buries talent. Cena doesn’t bury talent, he IS talent! Cena BURIES mediocrity!
Cena doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the lisp or his failures. Cody has manipulated his way to the top of this business, and his ego outweighs his ability. All Cody has done is ride the coattails of Cena’s success! Cena has been so great, that the WWE could hand the heartbeat of this business to Cena’s chauffer! That’s right! Cody, your champion, is nothing more than Cena’s chauffer. A slimy pickpocket that thinks just cuz he stole the blueprints, he can run the kingdom! That is WHY Cena did it! Because it disgusts him! Cody sat by Cena’s side for YEARS, and stole every secret he needed to be undeniable, but he is still underwhelming.
Cena tried to drill it into Cody’s egotistical skull. Cody has to be authentic because fans can see through phony. Cody is too polished, too rehearsed, and relies on lazy gimmicks like fans singing his name just to get by! The fans boo, but then also sing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cena says Cody is just like the Pied Piper! All he’s ever done is find a way to make a catchy tune trick the people into loving mediocrity. Strip away the music and entrance, there is not much to look at but that pinstriped suit. But you could walk Cena out in silence, and you can bet your last dollar that he could body you before your first breath!
Cody Rhodes does not look like John Cena, doesn’t act like him, and doesn’t work like him. But Cody also doesn’t look like himself, act like himself, and work like himself, because he is still afraid to show who he is. So what do we get instead? Cody gives us a generic mix of every superstar he’s ever loved and every TV show he’s ever watched, in some big confused blob, that makes him still look like a 16-year-old kid taking acting lessons, because he is too afraid of public speaking. Cody Rhodes has shown Cena ONE thing, and the one thing is that someone mediocre wearing something meaningful is all it takes to trick the people!
Cena has worked too damn hard to make THAT a symbol of mastery to have it paraded by a paint-by-numbers, sociopathic nepo-baby who is so into himself that he had his wrestling gimmick tattooed for the world to see! It’s not where the tattoo is, it’s what the tattoo IS that exposes Cody for who he is: a common fan like the rest of them. So after WrestleMania, it’ll be great for Cody! He can go to Fanatics, buy the toy belt, call himself the fans’ champion, because the last real champion is taking that belt home forever to expose Cody for who he is: an errand boy that got lucky! Fans are actaully fired up behind Cena!?
Cody tells Cena that he didn’t expect this. But maybe Cena is right. Maybe Cody was chosen. But you know who chose him? The fans did. Can Cena say the same? Or was it some guy in an office who isn’t even here anymore and we can’t even talk about him? Yeah, let’s go ahead and go there. Stirp everything away from Cody, does he know who he is? He’s a wrestler like his father before him, and if anyone is a corporate creation, it is Cena and not Cody! Gosh, everyone is so terrified of Cena on the mic but Cody isn’t not. Cena had more d*ck in his promo than in his jorts! Making fun of Cody for looking like he’s a kid?
Well, Cena’s the one who hangs out with Zac Efron and wishes he was 16 again! And thanks for the softball saying Cena created all of this and he created Cody. Well, Cena created a lot of disenfranchised fans that made it easy for Cody to pack up, go somewhere else, and say, “Hey! Look at me!” Cody tells Cena not to act like he cleaned up his room before he packed up for Hollywood. And while we’re at it…! There are two of them in this ring right now, and what Cody is about to ask might punch a giant hole in Cena’s logic. Between the two of them, which one of them sold out to The Rock? The fans again chant at Cena, “You Sold Out!”
Cody tells Cena that Cena is still Cody’s hero. But Cena is also a POS. Cena smirks while fans repeat that. Cena says just like all the fans’, Cody’s head is full of feces and not facts. Cena has worked 100 times harder than Cody and never once in all of that was he ever protected from the audience, or the superstar, present company included, taking their best shot. Everyone knows that every time Cena steps in the ring, it is a challenge to every superstar to take their strongest swing to see if they are worthy to put Cena down. NO ONE has been worthy! So Cena has just decided to do it himself. That’s why Cena has never left, has always been here.
No matter how high the hill is to climb, no matter what garbage they give him, Cena finds a way to make it great. Cody had to leave because Cody realized that at best, he can’t even wipe Cena’s ass! Cena makes empires for billionaires! All Cody ever did was steal money from their kids. “See you at WrestleMania, champ.” Cena turns to go but Cody wants to remind Cena, that all the time Cody has been here, never once has an audience ever chanted, “You Can’t Wrestle.” Cena hears the fans repeat that and he turns red int he face! Cena storms back into the ring, he and Cody square up, but then Cena smirks again.
Cena tips his hat and then takes a swing! Cody catches him! CROSS RHODES!! Cody smooths out his suit while he stands over Cena. Then he points to the sign while fans sing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cody holds the belt up before he exits, will Cody do very much the same in just 19 days?

New Catch Republic’s return was ruined, all because the “best” tag team had to cut corners! Cathy Kelley interviews New Day, congratulating them on the win.

The fans fire up as Erik & Ivar storm out on stage, belts on their shoulders, and they stare down with The New Day.
Erik & Ivar are always ready, so will they and New Day take this all the way to Las Vegas?
Jey checks on Jimmy.
The Usos are pumped up. Jey knows Jimmy told him earlier, but Jey would just feel better if he was out there with Jimmy tonight. Jimmy knows that, but tonight is different. Jimmy knows the world is doubting Jey. But tonight, Jimmy closes that noise. Gunther’s a big deal, but so is Jey. And so is Jimmy. Ain’t no Ring General, just a man who is beatable. Tonight, Jimmy beats Gunther. At WrestleMania, Jey beats Gunther and becomes World Heavyweight Champion! YEET! They shake it out and then Jey holds on. “I hear you. Just be careful.” Jimmy nods, and Jey heads out. Will #BigJim make good on his word? Or will Gunther get back at him for last week’s slap?

Toni Storm is here!
Milwaukee cheers as The Good Land is now TIMELESS! Toni goes right to the ring, puts her AEW Women’s World Championship belt right down on the mat, and has a mic to say, “Milwaukee, I love you.” The fans cheer that! Toni says please, enough of the banter! “Megan Bayne, get your oiled up, feathered ass out here right now!” No response, so Toni says fine. If Megan is too busy crushing watermelons and eating babies, then listen up! The spotlight drops on Toni as the fans chant her name. Toni says, “Last Wednesday, you were the better woman. I don’t know what happened, it all happened so fast. But before I knew it, I was flat on my back like you’d just bought me a steak dinner.
“I am embarrassed. I am hurt. And I’m ashamed. And the worst part is, you made it look so easy.” Toni rests on the mat beside her belt to say, “I went back to my hotel, and I turned off all the lights. And I laid there, going over the same scene in my head over and over and over again, wondering if this is what’s going to happen to me at Dynasty.” Fans say no, but Toni continues, “And then, when the sun came up, I was covered in sweat. Moreso than usual. But I got up, and I went into the bathroom and I took a piss. And then I stubbed my toe, then I whacked my head on the sink. And when I came to, I looked into the mirror, and I remembered exactly who I am!”
The fans cheer, and Toni rises up to say, “I am Timeless Toni Storm! And at Dynasty, I will be leaving with your tits in my purse!” Toni approaches the ropes for her close up, only to be CLOBBERED by Penelope Ford! The Superbad Girl grins, the fans boo, but Ford fires off hands on Toni! Ford whips, but Toni reverses to GERMAN SUPLEX! Ford ends up in a corner, Toni runs in, SWEET HIP MUSIC! The fans fire up as Toni stomps a mudhole into Ford! But then Megan CLOBBERS Toni! The fans boo as now the Megasus gets the drop on Toni! Megan fireman’s carries, FATE’S DESCENT on the belt!
The fans boo even more as Megan sits Toni up, tells her to “BOW! DOWN!” then throws Toni down again! Megan stands over Toni, and with just EIGHT DAYS left, is there no such thing as “timeless” in AEW?
The Death Riders speak.
Claudio Castagnoli starts with German, and he says that while Dax Harwood will be the first victim of the Death Riders, this Wednesday is when the Swiss Cyborg does something for himself. Claudio calls out Adam Copeland to go 1v1 for what Cope did to him! And if Copeland thinks that was ruthless, Claudio knows he is losing his edge and is just trying to cope with it! Claudio will beat Cope to a pulp, but leave just enough of him alive to limp to Dynasty so he can team up with his “two little groupies,” and fail at another chance of becoming champion here in AEW.
Moxley pats Claudio on the shoulder and says, “There are only three women I fear in this world: My mother, my sister, and my wife. Until I met Marina Shafir. On the day that she just snaps, I know I don’t wanna be the one who pissed her off. Part of me thinks maybe me and you, Swerve, we should just grab some popcorn, sit and watch these ladies tear each other apart. But you talked a really, really big game on Wednesday, and now you gotta back it up. Right now, that’s the job. Poor, sweet Willow.” Marina speaks up and warns Willow in Romanian, then in English she dares Willow to keep smiling once Marina’s ripped out her liver and shoved it down her throat!
Moxley & Claudio look at each other, Moxley with wide eyes and Claudio with a big smile. They head out with Marina, will there be no solving this Problem?
Jay White VS Kevin Knight!
The Switchblade has put his name in the hat for the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, knowing full well Will Ospreay and Hangman Adam Page will be in it, too. But will White be rolling towards the Owen Hart Cup opening round? Or will The Jet take him on quite the flight?
The bell rings and the fans rally. White and Knight circle, and Milwaukee is strongly behind the Switchblade. The two tie up, White waistlocks but Knight drop toeholds. Knight floats to a facelock, floats to a cover, but White slips through to headlock. Knight rolls free and the two stand off. The fans cheer, White and Knight reset, and they knuckle lock. White rolls, wrenches, and wristlocks. Knight rolls, handsprings, and then wrenches to WRING White! White rolls through and the fans cheer. White shakes out the arm while Knight brushes himself off. They tie up again and are in a deadlock.
They go around, White headlocks, then hits the takeover. Knight headscissors, White shrugs that off, but Knight rolls to a cover. TWO, Knight headscissors again, but White kips free. Knight headlocks, White rolls free, then he hits a headlock takeover again! Knight headscissors, White kips free again, and now Knight headlocks. White powers up and out, they RAM shoulders, and White rebounds to run Knight over! But Knight springs right back up! The fans cheer, and now White fires forearms! White runs, Knight hurdles, but then White fakes Knight out! The fans cheer, Knight still arm-drags White around!
Knight ducks ‘n’ dodges White to tilt-o-whirl and RANA! Not the smoothest but White is right up to CHOP back! White shakes out the stars, storms up on Knight and CHOPS again! And CHOPS in the corner! The fans fire up while Knight goes to a corner. White storms up, reels Knight in, then suplexes. Knight slips free to UPPERCUT, UPPERCUT, and UPPERCUT again! Knight whips, White grabs ropes, and then White TOSSES Knight to the apron! Knight bobs ‘n’ weaves, ROCKS White, then steps in. White grabs a leg, DRAPING DRAGON SCREW! Both men are down and the fans rally up!
Knight stands, White CHOPS him to the corner! The fans fire up and White LARIATS! White brings Knight around, suplexes, BRAINBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Knight stays in this but White stays calm while Collision goes picture in picture.
White looms over Knight, drags him up, and CHOPS! Knight flops out of the ring! White pursues, but Knight CHOPS! White CHOPS back! Knight CHOPS in return! White CHOPS, Knight CHOPS, and repeat! Knight fires CHOP after CHOP, then he puts White in the ring. White is on Knight with a CHOP! Knight sputters while White catches his breath, and then White covers, TWO! White covers again, TWO! White clamps onto Knight with a chinlock and grinds him down. Knight endures, fights up, and fires body shots. White CHOPS Knight again! Knight sputters and flounders to the corner but White is on him again.
White stands Knight up, CHOPS him, then whips corner to corner hard! Knight slumps down in the corner but White drags him to a cover, TWO! White drags Knight up, puts him in a corner then puts him up top. White CHOPS Knight, climbs up, but Knight fires body shots! Collision returns to single picture as White hops down. Knight throws hands, then adjusts position. But White CHOPS Knight down! Knight falls to the apron, tries to hold on, but then slumps down to the floor. Milwaukee is fired up again as White storms out after Knight. White puts Knight in the ring, covers, TWO! White keeps Knight down with a REAR BEARHUG!
The fans rally as Knight fights up and fires body shots. White CHOPS again! Knight drops to a knee, but he shakes his head. Knight stands, but White CHOPS again!

White survives and Knight is a bit surprised, but he fireman’s carries. White fights free to CHOP! White whips, Knight leaps over the lariat, then SUPERKICKS! White ends up in a corner, Knight runs in, but White puts him on the apron! Knight ROCKS White first, then springboards, but into the clinch! URE- NO, Knight arm-drags White into a takedown and cover, TWO!! White escapes and Knight is shocked! White clinches, BLADE- NO, Knight slips around and shoves White to a corner!
Knight runs in, White ELBOWS him, then goes up! UPPER ROOM!! Knight throws White down and gets moving, but White ducks a lariat! COMPLETE SHOT, then the waistlock! Deadlift GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up and White drags Knight up. White clinches for the URENAGE! White says time to end it! Clinch and BLADERUNNER!! Cover, White wins!
Winner: Jay White, by pinfall
Knight pushed White in this one, but he still had to Breathe with the Switchblade! White grabs a mic to say, “Let’s hear it for Kevin Knight!” The fans cheer, and White says, “Just like myself, Kevin went through the NJPW Dojo. And although this year, it won’t be yours in the Owen, there’s always next year. Because I’m pretty sure we’re going to see a lot more of Kevin Knight in AEW.” The fans cheer that! White says that was Knight’s cue to leave but guess Milwaukee thought otherwise. White says, “See you around.” They shake hands, and Knight takes off. When and where will The Jet fly back to AEW?
White says the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament will have the best of the best. And just like White does every time, he will show us that he is the MOST elite! Because he needs to win the Owen Hart Cup, because he needs to go on to All In: Texas, because he needs his shot at the AEW World Championship! The fans cheer that, and White says because he is the Last Rock ‘n’ Rolla, the man who singlehandedly sold out Madison Square Garden, King Switch! The Catalyst of Professional Wrestling! This is STILL his era! And at All In, White will show us it is STILL the Switchblade Era! White has issued his mission statement, but will it be mission accomplished by July?
AEW shares a tweet from Athena.
In response Mercedes Mone posting, “Milwaukee, say hello to your C E O,” The Fallen Goddess says, “Maybe I will say hi… TONIGHT!” Could the Forever ROH Women’s Champion be the one to face the TBS Champion tonight? We’ll have to see, after the break!
Mercedes Mone VS Robyn Renegade!
#FourBeltsMone held onto the TBS Championship after getting quite the fight from Billie Starkz. But her AEW Dynasty dance card is still open. Will Mone win herself a night off? Or will this Renegade make Mone work for her money?
The bell rings and Mone circles with Robyn. They tie up, go around, and Mone headlocks. Robyn powers out but Mone runs her over! Milwaukee is tourn, but things speed up. Mone steps on Robyn’s dropdown, then does her dance. Robyn runs up, Mone gets around to waistlock, but Robyn switches.

The CEO smiles as she puts this Renegade down and grabs up all her belts. Tony Schiavone joins Mone in the ring and congratulates her on another win. It seems like that the Money Train is running hotter than ever. But he understands she had something she wants to say, so the floor is hers. Mone says that’s right. The fans boo, Mone frowns, and she takes the mic from Schiavone. “I am the greatest TBS Champion of all time! And I came to AEW to win more gold. So I’m officially declaring myself in the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! That’s right! I’m planning on winning the Owen Cup.
“And then, the Money Train is gonna make her way to Texas to All In! And then, I’m going to become the AEW Women’s World Champion!” Fans are torn again but Schiavone says that tournament will have a lot of competition, including Billie Starkz, who- Mone stops Schiavone there. She doesn’t wanna hear about that stupid kid! Billie has a lot of heart, but not as much heart as Robyn! Give it up for Robyn! Way more heart than that stupid Billie. Who even trained Billie? They suck! You’re looking at the greatest women’s wrestler of all time! WAIT! Athena really IS here! The fans cheer as THE ROH Women’s World Champion is on AEW!
Athena goes to the ring, and she holds up her spinner belt while looking at Mone’s collection. The fans are all behind Athena and that annoys Mone. Mone puts her belts aside, to take a swing on Athena! Athena dodges and DECKS Mone! The fans cheer, Athena goes to the corner, and Robyn helps Mone up. Mone gets away, O-FACE for Robyn! Well, not the target Athena wanted, but Athena does look at Mone’s TBS Championship. Athena shouts, “This is MY show now!” Will Athena’s Forever Reign be the one to add more gold? Or has she just put herself on Mone’s gold colleting radar?
Backstage interview with Queen Aminata.
Lexy Nair is with the One True African Queen, and it would seem there is unfortunate news. Aminata’s hand is wrapped up, she is unable to compete tonight. Taking her place in tonight’s main event is Billie Starkz. Given all this, how does- Serena Deeb walks in. Deeb smirks and says Aminata must know this was preventable, right? Deeb had the game plan, offered it to Aminata, and Aminata didn’t want to listen. Let’s look at history, Aminata. Every time Aminata listened, she won. Every time she didn’t, not only does she lose, she ends up injured. This is all choices. Everything they do is choices. And unfortunately, Aminata made the wrong choice.
Aminata admits, Deeb is right. Everything is about choices. And Aminata still choose not to listen to Deeb’s trash! Not listening to any of that. Okay, Queen, Deeb respects that. But deep down, Aminata knows Deeb is right. And if Aminata thinks there’s a slight chance that she knows that Deeb is right, well, Aminata will have some weeks at home to rest up. Here’s some reading material. Deeb shoves her playbook into Aminata’s hand, will Aminata do her homework?
“Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith VS Top Flight w/ Leila Grey!
Speaking of learning, The Redwood & Bad Apple want to make The Learning Tree proud, and that means winning some championships to go along with Chris Jericho’s ROH World Title. Will Bill & Keith be one step closer to facing The Hurt Syndicate with tonight? Or will Darius & Dante Martin soar far above the trees to be next in line for gold?
The teams sort out and Bill starts against Darius. The fans rally, but Dante wants in! Darius tags Dante in, and now Keith says he wants in! Bill tags Keith, he and Dante tie up, and they go around. Keith puts Dante on ropes, Dante turns things around, but Dante lets off as the ref counts. The two go again, Keith arm-drags hard and has the armlock. Dante rolls and arm-drags free, then he DROPKICKS Keith down! The fans fire up, Dante A-LIST LARIATS! Tag to Darius, he snap suplexes Keith and tag sin Dante. Slingshot SENTON! The fans cheer, Dante brings Keith up but Keith shoves free!

If that teamwork and victory doesn’t say they’re ready, that look on Bill’s face sure does. Will the Learning Tree do this to the Hurt Syndicate? Or will Lashley & Shelton just hurt people?
Wait, The Cru slithers in! They have the chain necklaces ready like last week! Leila spots them, but it’s AR FOX that jumps in! Fox stands with Top Flight and The Cru backs off. Action says that’s fine, they’ll let it go this time. But will The Sight to See & The Man of the Hour ground Top Flight one way or another?
Backstage interview with Jamie Hayter.
Lexy Nair is with the Southampton Hayter and welcomes her back. Last time we saw her, she was victorious over Julia Hart, and now she’s in the main event of Collision. How does it feel to be back again? Hayter says it feels great. And if you know Hayter, you know she doesn’t like doing things by half measures. So being in the main event is just another Saturday night for her. But she will say she is very excited to be in the ring with a young whippersnapper like Billie Starkz. It really injects some energy into Hayter, it lights that fire. And Billie has a lot of fire herself, and Hayter likes that. Billie gets knocked down but she gets back up.
And Hayter while respects that about Billie, she doesn’t want Billie to confuse respect for mercy. If Billie steps to Hayter, Hayter will hit back and knock her on her ass. There’s no hesitation, no second chances. So if Hayter were Billie, she’d be smart. Or, find out the hard way. Your choice. Oh, and one more thing. Hayter noticed some girls are already putting in for the Owen Hart Tournament, so Hayter will do that, too. And it is very fitting that she returned at All In last year, because this year, she leaves All In the champion! Hayter is ready, how hard will she hit Billie on this Collision?
Adam Cole is here!
The Undisputed Kingdom follows him out, complete with “BOOM!” and “ADAM COLE BAYBAY!” as the Panama City Playboy prepares for his NO TIME LIMIT AEW TNT Championship match at Dynasty. As such, here comes the champion, Daniel Garcia! Daddy Magic has Garcia’s back as he goes to the ring, and the fans cheer for all parties involved. Cole has the mic and wants Garcia to listen. Cole knows tensions are high, but he’ll make this crystal clear: Cole has all the respect in the world for Garcia. The past two matches they’ve had are two of the toughest matches Cole’s had in his AEW career.
When they saw Garcia is the future of AEW, Cole means that in his soul, and the fans sure believe that. That is because Garcia is a fighting champion. When Cole challenged Garcia for the TNT Championship, Cole could not get the job done. But neither did Garcia. And so as a fighting champion, that must make Garcia sick to his stomach. He must not be able to sleep at night knowing he didn’t and couldn’t put Cole away. And unless Garcia is a coward, he’d want to change that. Cole sure wants to change that. Cole doesn’t want things to end in a draw. This needs to end with one man proving that he is better than the other, and dammit, that man is Cole!
Cole knows, Garcia knows, the entire world knows, that Garcia and Cole need to finish this fight. The fans cheer, Garcia nods, and he tells Cole he appreciates the kind words. Garcia agrees with a lot of that. They’ve been in the ring almost two months straight. And as much fun as it has been testing his iron against one of the best, truly, Garcia is getting a little bit frustrated. It is eating Garcia alive that he couldn’t beat Cole. Matt Menard tells Garcia that he is THE TNT Champion. How many chances is Cole gonna get? Garcia doesn’t need to be talked into this. It is Cole’s job to defeat Garcia, and Cole couldn’t do it!
Menard says Garcia doesn’t have to go through with this. Garcia pats Menard on the shoulder and says yeah, he doesn’t have to do this. But he wants to! So then, they will run it back one last time, BAYBAY! Roddy shouts, “DANNYYY~! Hey, listen. I have all the respect in the world for you. And just like Adam said, you are the future. And I’m not just saying this because he’s my best friend, but he is one of the best pro-wrestlers on the planet. And as good as you are, you’re just not there yet, dude.” Menard says, “Not there yet?” Menard and Roddy argue, Kyle joins in, but Garcia tells them all that this is enough!
Enough noise, enough distractions! April 6th, Kyle won’t be out there, Roddy won’t be out there, and Menard won’t be out there. Menard is a bit taken aback, but Garcia says at Dynasty, there will be no one ringside, there will be no time limit, and it will be Cole VS Garcia for the TNT Championship, ONE LAST TIME, and there WILL be a winner, cuz you’re looking right at him! Garcia holds up the title, but will he still own that title when it’s all said and done? Or is Dynasty going to be Undisputed?
Athena & Billie Starkz regroup backstage.
The Fallen Goddess says, “Mercedes~! HAHA~! Is that it?” Billie says yeah, just about. Athena says that is so annoying. But what’s the expression? Poke a bear, it might bite you? Well here’s one better. Mercedes, if you’re gonna be a passive aggressive b*tch, you’re gonna get hit. How did you like the taste of the floor? Was it good for Mercedes? Cuz it was great for Athena. So use this as a learning lesson: Keep Athena’s name, and her Minion’s name, out of your damn mouth. But hey! Mone is in the business of collecting championships? OMG, she’s such an inspiration, Athena is gonna do the same thing.
So how about this? Let’s get to real business, not that Mone knows what that is. Athena declares to her Minions and to the AEW fans around the world. Your Forever ROH Champion, Fallen Goddess, American Joshi, Minion Overlord, and all those other things, is OFFICIALLY ENTERING the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! That’s great, right? And Billie! Billie made this all come together, what a brilliant little schemer she’s becoming. Billie has her match tonight! The main event! Look at her! And against a former AEW Women’s World Champion, Jamie Hayter. Is she ready? Yeah, she’s ready! She’ll make Athena proud!
Athena is sure Billie will find a way to disappoint, but tonight, Athena will be watching very closely. Good luck. Billie gives a salute, and it seems no matter if it’s ROH or AEW, Athena keeps Billie under her thumb. Will the inaugural and former ROH Women’s World TV Champion prove she’s ready for the big time?
Dax Harwood VS Wheeler Yuta!
Rated FTR made the challenge for the AEW World Trios Championships, The Death Riders made the challenge for Rated FTR to survive.

Winner: Wheeler Yuta, by pinfall
Dax can’t believe it, but he just got suckered in! Yuta celebrates like he’s already won the title match, and Claudio is there to pat Yuta on the back. Will the Death Riders keep scoring as Claudio takes on Cope? Or can Rated FTR even things up before Dynasty? Dax argues with the ref, the ref says his decision stands. His count was the count, there’s nothing to it. But then Dax gets in the ref’s face?!? Security rushes in there, but Dax fights them!? They hold Dax down, but Cash YANKS them all off him! But then Dax SHOVES Cash?! Dax realizes what he did and he apologizes. Cash is stunned, but just what is going on with Dax’s emotional state?
Dax offers a hand, Cash slaps it away to get in Dax’s face! Dax says he’s sorry, it was a mistake, but then Cash storms off. Well, guess you can’t spell frustration without F T R. Will they be able to sort this out before arriving in Philadelphia?
Backstage interview with The Patriarchy.
Alicia Atout is with Kip Sabian, Nick Wayne & Mother Shayna, and notes that just like last week, they’re here without any sign of Christian Cage. Just what is going on with The Patriarchy? But before anyone can speak up, The Cru barges in. Lio Rush asks Nick, “What’s up with your boy, Fox, man?” Nick says, “Huh?” Lio repeats himself, what’s up with his boy? Uh, his boy? Fox is far from Nick’s boy. Really? They know they’re history together. Didn’t Fox try to end Nick’s career? So Nick is just gonna chill back here while Fox is out there still breathing? Nick says okay, he gets what they’re up to here. Oh, really? And what’s that?
What The Cru is really doing is asking Nick for help, simply because they can’t get the job done. Oh, is that so? Nick doesn’t blame them for asking him. But Nick’s done with Fox, that is well in the past. Well Nick’s past is creeping up on their present, so for them, that’s an issue. Oh, is that really an issue? Kip has Nick calm down. These “gentlemen” surely didn’t come and interrupt them without a reason, so The Patriarchy should hear them out. AKA, get to the point. Lio says this is all they’re saying. Three of them, two of The Cru. But when the time is right, nobody knows Fox better than Nick Wayne. Just think on it.
The Cru heads out, but will The Patriarchy’s Prodigy take them up on the offer to team up?
Holo.grm VS Blake Christian w/ Lee Johnson!
The futuristic luchador’s undefeated streak continues, even as he joins Komander as a Titan of the Air. But while Hologram & Komander have settled things with La Faccion Ingobernable, this battle is about the Revolution Zero Hour last month. Will the Vanilla Babyface avenge that loss? Or will he just be number 22 on Hologram’s win streak?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Hologram and Blake circle, approach, and then Blake slips past Hologram to strut. Blake then pie faces Hologram, talks some smack, and things speed up.

Hologram high-fives the front row, then stalks after Blake. Hologram goes up the steel steps, Lee storms up but Hologram mule kicks him! Blake jumps up to SPANISH FLY to the floor! Blake puts Hologram in, then springboards for a 450 SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Hologram survives and Blake is frustrated!

Vanilla Babyface was spicy, but Hologram comes out hotter! Will this 22-0 streak show Hologram is ready for a golden opportunity?
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa & Kris Statlander.
Lexy is now with La Mera Mera & The Galaxy’s Greatest as she says we can officially announce they are also entering the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! Kris says that last year, she was a completely different person in a much different place. But she still had the same goals as she does today. “To every woman in this tournament, and to every woman in the locker room, you can’t stop Stat!” Rosa says, “Unless you face me.” Much respect to Kris, but like Rosa told Toni Storm, Rosa never lost the AEW Women’s World Championship, and she’s yet to wear one since. So believe her when she says this: She will scratch and claw harder than ever to have the Cup above her head.
Kris says, “Unless you face me.” Rosa says okay, mamacita. See you in the Owen. They each wish the other luck, and then head out. Will La Mera Mera & The Galaxy’s Greatest battle to prove who is TRULY the best of the best?
Jamie Hayter VS Billie Starkz!
Hayter was preparing for Aminata, but it would seem Aminata’s loss to Hart has also lost her some time in the ring. But Billie is ready to step up to prove herself worthy of AEW’s bright lights! Will this be the start of Starkz’s legacy? Or will Hayter Hit Hard enough to be the number one seed in the Owen Hart Cup?
The bell rings and Billie circles with Hayter. Milwaukee cheers on Billie and Hayter encourages it. The two then tie up, and Hayter powers Billie to a corner. The ref counts, Hayter lets off with a pat on the shoulder, and Billie frowns. The two reset, tie up again, and Hayter again powers Billie to a corner. The ref counts again, and Hayter lets off with another pat on the shoulder. Billie frowns again, but the fans duel, “Let’s Go, Jamie!” “Billie Starkz!” They tie up, Hayter headlocks, and she grinds Billie down. Billie powers up and out, but Hayter runs Billie over! Things keep moving and Hayter runs Billie over again!
Hayter flexes, the fans are torn, but Billie is right up to stare Hayter down. The fans cheer, but Hayter pie faces Billie! Billie ROCKS Hayter! Billie whips, then follows, and she sunset flips over, TWO! Hayter gets up, Billie BUZZSAWS her down! The fans rally up, Billie whips Hayter but Hayter reverses. Hayter runs up, but into an ELBOW! Hayter comes back, but into a BOOT! Hayter is annoyed, she blocks boots this time but not the rebound ENZIGIRI! Billie goes up, up, but Hayter TOSSES Billie down! Billie writhes, rises, and Hayter is up the corner to MISSILE DROPKICK! Hayter flexes, the fans are torn, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Hayter stalks Billie, stomps her down, then stands on her! Billie endures until Hayter steps off, and then Hayter puts Billie on the ropes. Hayter CHOKES Billie, the ref counts, and Hayter steps off at 4. Hayter “apologizes” before she stalks Billie. Hayter drags Billie up, DDTS her by the ropes, then puts her back on the ropes. Hayter KNEE DROPS on Billie’s back, then KNEE DROPS again! And again! The ref reprimands but Hayter backs off. Hayter fires up the fans, then she goes back to kneel on Billie’s neck! The ref reprimands and counts, that’s not a cover! Hayter backs off, “apologizes” again, then has Billie in a corner.
Hayter smacks Billie off buckles, then runs her corner to corner to smack her off more buckles! Then Hayter goes to a third corner for buckle bumps! Hayter says let’s finish the set, and she runs Billie corner to corner for a buckle bump! Billie falls back, Hayter dusts her hands off, and then brings Billie up. But Billie WRINGS Hayter’s arm!

Billie tries again, but Hayter blocks it to a cording hold! Hayter brings Billie along as she goes to the ropes, SPRINGBOARD HAYTERADE!!! Cover, HAYTER WINS!
Winner: Jamie Hayter, by pinfall
Now that was a Collision! Hayter is back, and she finds a new way to hit hard! Athena walks out on stage, and she waves hi to Hayter. Whether Billie impressed her or disappointed her, Athena now has her eyes on Hayter and everyone else in the Owen Hart Cup. Will the Fallen Goddess learn for herself that Hayter Hits Hard? Or will the Owen Hart Cup join the Athena World Domination Tour soon enough?
My Thoughts:
A very good Collision, talky as usual, but very good build towards Dynasty and the Owen Hart Cup simultaneously. Great opening promo from Toni, because she’s always great at promos, but they did a great job framing Ford’s blindside attack on Toni. And while Toni takes down Ford, Megan of course gets the last say on Toni. Toni is the underdog champion, knows she is, but knows she won’t let that stop her, and surely she comes out on top at Dynasty. Good promo from The Death Riders to hype up Dynamite. Claudio was very clever in using “Edge” and “Cope” in his part, and he will have a great match against Cope, but I would think Cope wins.
Marina had a great part calling out Willow, and that Mixed Tornado Tag will be awesome stuff. Dax VS Yuta was great, too, and real good win for Yuta. Dax losing his cool further waters the seed that is an FTR Heel Turn, but if this keeps up between Dax and Cash, could we end up with FTR VS FTR? That’d be rather wild, but it’d also make sense since FTR at some point said they were drawing closer to the end of their careers. A tag team like them, that has already done so much, having a 1v1 against each other is kinda the last thing to check off their bucket lists.
Great tag match from Bill & Keith VS Top Flight, one of the best Top Flight’s had in a minute since they’ve been going back and forth between AEW and ROH, but I figured Bill & Keith would win. They want their shot at The Hurt Syndicate, this gets them a step closer to that, and Top Flight still has The Cru after them anyway. I’m just not sure The Cru asking Nick Wayne to help out against Top Flight & AR Fox is the kind of story continuity they should be using right about now… Nick’s busy with this story against Christian Cage, he should focus on that. Unless the point is, if Patriarchy falls apart, Nick needs somewhere to go and someone to hand out with. But then The Cru is just three- Gasp! Cru-serweights…!
Great promo segment from Cole, Garcia and their friends, but uh, the announcement came in right as this segment started, so for us at home, it completely undercut how Garcia and Cole were building to making the No Time Limit title match. This is all still the right move, and Garcia telling Menard to stay away from ringside was a wild twist. Cole VS Garcia could be a borderline show stealer given how great their 20 minute draw was last time. And I still think that Cole should win the title, just so he finally has something in AEW aside from the tag title run alongside MJF. As for Garcia, losing the TNT title could be his opportunity to move on to another title, like the International or Continental Championship.
Hologram VS Blake was a rather random match to put on, but whatever, still great stuff. I wonder who finally pins/submits Hologram to end his win streak. It’d have to be someone that fans already have strong feelings for, good or bad. Like, Ospreay could get away being the guy that beats Hologram because it’s Ospreay. At the same time, MJF or Jericho could beat Hologram because not only do they have the power level, but fans love to hate them anyway so they’d love to hate MJF or Jericho as the guy who ended the streak.
And great stuff with the Women’s Owen Hart Cup, but also a build between Mercedes Mone and Athena. Mone of course beat Robyn Renegade, but she of course also had to talk trash on Billie & Athena. Athena finally being on AEW TV is great in itself, and she had a good promo with Billie to touch on the love-hate relationship between Minion Overlord and Minion 400,237 & 3/4ths that we’ve seen the past two years on ROH. Aminata going down with injury is a shame, and her promo with Deeb could’ve been a bit sharper on both ends. But Deeb naturally puts it on Aminata that Aminata needs to either join her or wrestle her, and I’m thinking we get the latter.
Good promo from Rosa and Statlander to not only add them to the Owen Hart Cup but to tease their match-up. Hayter VS Billie was a great main event, and it was another great showing for Billie in the loss. Athena confronting Hayter was also good stuff, and both Owen Hart Cups are looking to be the most star-studded ones yet. But as it stands, I’m thinking Rosa wins to get that world title match she has yet to get, and then we get Mone VS Athena for the TBS Championship, as teased tonight. All In: Texas will basically give both Rosa and Athena homefield advantage, and it’d be pretty wild if both of them won titles then.
My Score: 8.8/10
