The Conglomeration speaks.

Roderick Strong shouts, “ORANGE!” Cassidy says, “What?” Roddy says thanks for the new shirt with himself on it, it’s great. Kyle O’Reilly says he loves this teamwork, this camaraderie, and hey, they’re in Portland for Playoff Palooza! Conglomeration, Collision, this is a good night to defend the trios titles for the first time ever! But then FTR steps in, and #BigStoke says Cash & Dax have something that’s actually important to say to Cope & Cage. Second, everyone backstage knows The Conglomeration is about to lose to the Don Callis Family, FTR’s close personal friends. See you later, losers.

FTR make their entrance, and the Veterans Memorial Coliseum isn’t exactly happy about it. Stokely leads the way into the ring and they get the mics. Cash starts off by saying, “Big Cope, we saw the challenge you laid out, very interesting. Very interesting indeed. So I know you probably think you’re gonna pull one over on us, that you’re gonna trick us into accepting this, but all you really had to do was bring something, anything to the table to entice us. And I gotta say, you saying that if you lose again to FTR, that you will no longer team? That sounds pretty enticing to me. So I’m not gonna drag this out. Challenge accepted!”

The fans cheer that, and Dax says of course Cope would say he deserves the rematch. But why? Because of some success they had 25 YEARS ago? Dax will lay a little cold, hard truth on Cope & Christian. Nobody wants them here! The fans boo that, but Dax says FTR doesn’t want them here! The locker room doesn’t want them here! As dumb as these fans are, they’re smart enough to know that they don’t want C&C here! No one associated with AEW wants C&C here! And now, give Dax a moment. Cope didn’t have to play his little mind games like challenging their man hoods. All they had to do was put their careers on the line.

The fans boo more, but Dax says the New York Street Fight sounds great to them, but let’s do it one better! If they’re gonna have this match with all this riding on the line… Dax wants there to be no more questions! No more debate! New York Street Fight, I QUIT STYLE! Dax wants C&C’s wives, daughters, dogs, and God Almighty to hear the one thing that is embarrassing to every man: Five letters, two words, “I QUIT!” And then after that, C&C, you can go on about your way, this here is done. Continue on with your nostalgia run while FTR goes on as the greatest tag team to EVER do this! Now the ball is in your court, Cope. #TopGuysOut.

The fans boo, but FTR saw the tag careers and raised them their dignity! Will Cope & Cage call that bet as we all go Double or Nothing? But as FTR takes their exit, The Conglomeration makes their entrance! FTR gets in their face, so The Conglomeration SHOVES them down! Will Cassidy, Roddy & Kyle show FTR what a real team looks like? Or will the Don Callis Family add more gold to the treasury?

AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.

The Death Riders are still carrying a semi-conscious Ospreay, as we saw them do after the medical/referee stoppage against Mark Davis. They place Ospreay in a chair, and Moxley takes a seat across from him. Yuta splashes water on Ospreay to wake him up, and Marina puts a towel around him. She wraps it around, gives it some strong tugs, and then a neck massage? Moxley says she’s good, huh? Then he asks Ospreay, “What is it you’re trying to accomplish?” Breaking Moxley’s neck? Breaking his own neck? When Ospreay goes to the ring, when he gets up in the morning, where is Ospreay trying to go? Who is Ospreay trying to be? What is it Ospreay is chasing?

Moxley doesn’t think Ospreay even knows the answers to those questions anymore. It was almost seven years ago that Moxley saw Ospreay for the first time. The power Ospreay wields and the ability Ospreay has… Mind, flesh, blood, muscle, bone. It will all break eventually. You try to run through a brick wall as much as you want, the wall doesn’t go anywhere. But if you step back and realize there is a door, you can walk right through it and become whoever you want on the other side. This, the mind, can be trained, honed properly, so that it will not break. You take dominion over your mind, and you can become a weapon like pro-wrestling has never seen.

But this thing between them has to come to a head one way or another. So they can settle up. Moxley puts a steel chair between them. Ospreay can be just like everyone else. Or, he can become everything he was meant to be. Moxley kisses the ground as he lies down, and he says it is Ospreay’s choice. Ospreay picks up the chair, looks it over, and looks as the Death Riders step back. Ospreay has the cameraman leave, but why? Does Ospreay go through with the easy route of taking Moxley out? Or does he accept The Maniac’s offer and see how far down the rabbit hole he can go?

10 Man Tag: The Young Bucks & The Rascalz VS Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia, David Finlay & Clark Connors!

Well, Moxley and Marina are here, so Ospreay didn’t crush Moxley with the chair. The Maniac joins commentary as his solders, as well as their associates in The Dogs, are about to wage war with two teams that stand in their way of glory. But will the Death Riders & Dogs run roughshod through Matt, Nick, Dez, Zach & Myron? Or are we about to have the most lit Superkick Party ever?

The teams sort out and Dez starts against Yuta. The fans rally as the two circle, talk some trash, but then The Dogs attack! The fans boo but they and the Death Riders all beat up on Bucks & Rascalz!

Then a clinch and GUT BUSTER to NECKBREAKER BACKBREAKER! The fans fire up as The Bucks then double whip Claudio, but he breaks the double lariat to DOUBLE LARIAT back! The fans cheer the Swiss Cyborg, but Dez RAMS low! Dez fires body shots, ROLLING LIGER KICKS, and Claudio tumbles out! Dez goes up, up, and yet Yuta trips him up! The Decoder knew the formula, and he BLASTS Nick down! The Dogs mug The Bucks while Yuta suplexes Dez!

Yuta shows off his own feat of strength as he walks with Dez, then SLAMS him down! Tag to Finlay, tag to Connors, and they get Dez up for a HOTSHOT and JEEP FLIPPER! Dez flounders and the fans are torn while Collision goes picture in picture.

Connors soaks up heat while he paces around Dez. Connors then bumps Dez off buckles, tags Finlay, and Finlay stomps away. The ref counts, Finlay stops at 4, but Finlay also argues with the ref so that the Death Riders can get their shots in! Finlay then drags Dez up just to throat chop him! Tag to Yuta, he brings Dez around, but Dez fires body shots and haymakers! Yuta UPPERCUTS and whips Dez to then ELBOW him down! Yuta drags Dez over, tags Garcia, and they twist ankles! They rotate to twist wrist and ankle, then both wrists! The ref reprimands but Yuta leaves while Garcia stands on Dez.

Yuta rewinds, slips around, GERMAN SUPLEX! But Myron lands out! Myron goes Matrix, then kips up to CUTTER! Both men are down and the fans fire up! Moxley admits this is a battle, he loves it! This is what they live for! Hot tags to Connors and Nick! Nick fires off on The Dogs with haymakers, but Finlay kicks low! The Dogs whip, DOUBLE HIP TOSS, but Nick lands out!

Winners: The Death Riders & The Dogs, by pinfall

Moxley loved the fast ‘n’ furious nature of it all, but The Dogs brought it back down to the mat. They huddle up for the celebration, but will nothing stop these dangerous deviants from doing whatever they want?

Backstage interview with Hikaru Shida, Kris Statlander, Mina Shirakawa & Harley Cameron.

Lexy Nair is with these four and thanks them for accepting the No Physicality Agreement. Mina & Harley have something to say to Shida & Statlander, so the floor is theirs. Harley knows Kris wouldn’t train her, or even consider it, but Shida… What you said about Harley… Mina demands Shida apologize! Shida says okay, okay. Harley, Shida will say it in English and to Harley’s face that Harley is NOT on their level! She has never been on their level! And if Harley still doesn’t believe that, then Shida and her good friend, Statlander, will prove it by doing what Harley could not! And that is beat Divine Dominion for the Women’s Tag Team Championships!

Mina asks Stat how she can trust Shida, but Shida tells Mina to shut up for once! But then Harley surprises everyone by knowing Japanese! Mina agrees with Harley, but while they’re all arguing, Kris heads out. Shida says look at what they’re doing to Stat Daddy! Shida hurries off after her “good friend,” but will #Shidalander really succeed where the Babes of Wrath failed?

Kris Statlander w/ Hikaru Shida VS B3CCA!

Well, dysfunction aside, the combination of the Galaxy’s Greatest and the Shining Samurai has been on a roll. But is the former AEW Women’s World & TBS Champion really interested in the Triple Crown? Or will she make her intentions known with her actions rather than her words?

Well speaking of actions, Becca decides to attack Kris before the bell! The fans boo but Becca fires off and bumps Kris off buckles.

Kris runs, and ROLLING- NO, Becca hits a FLATLINER! And then a HEADSCISSOR NECK LOCK! But Kris endures, drags Becca up, and tucks her in! STATURDAY NIGHT FEVER! Cover, Kris wins!

Winner: Kris Statlander, by pinfall

Becca put up quite a fight, but this is why Kris is a former champion. Shida celebrates but Kris doesn’t want anything to do with it? Will Kris have to make it plain to Shida that they’re not a team?

Backstage interview with The Divine Dominion.

Speaking of the Women’s Tag Team Champions, Lexy is now with Megan Bayne & Lena Kross and brings up the challenge thrown out by Shidalander. What is their response? Lena asks, “Why? Why should we be worried about Shida & Statlander? What about us doesn’t look like we have been ready and waiting?” Megan asks, “And why would we be worried about another thrown-together tag team who thinks they stand a chance?” What these two have is more than these titles. They have an understanding that there are no two women in this godforsaken realm that look like they do, that move like they do, and that destroy like they do.

This isn’t a challenge, this is their challenger’s fate. Do they accept it? The Divine Dominion has spoken, will The Megasus & Aussie Amazon continue to crush all who oppose them?

Rush VS Adam Priest!

El Toro Blanco has been itching for a fight, and #AllGenresAdam may have made the mistake of giving him one. But can Priest survive a run in with this ungovernable bull? Or will Rush stampede through him and right to a title opportunity?

The bell rings and the fans cheer Rush on. Adam offers a handshake but Rush kicks it away. The two circle, feel things out, and tie up. Rush slips around to waistlock but Priest switches. Rush moves around, switches back, but Priest switches back. They switch and switch, Priest wrenches and covers, ONE! Priest mocks the bull horns, but Rush shoves him for it! The fans rally up as Priest shoves Rush back. Priest rallies the fans while egging Rush on. Rush CHOPS! Priest CHOPS in return! Rush CHOPS and Priest felt that! The CHOPS keep going, then Rush gets the edge! Rush CHOPS again, then says que pasa nada!

Rush runs, but Priest DROPKICKS back! The fans rally as Priest pie faces Rush, then runs. Rush runs to CHOP Priest! And CHOPS again! Rush then dodges Priest to DECK him with a forearm! Priest goes to a corner while the fans rally up. Rush stomps away on Priest, then stops as the ref counts. Priest still fights back but Rush HAMMERS Priest! Rush HEADBUTTS Priest again and again, then argues with the ref. Rush runs corner to corner, but fakes the dropkick! The fans cheer as Rush then BOOTS Priest! Priest sputters but Rush rolls back to tranquilo. The fans cheer Rush while Collision goes picture in picture.

Rush hears the fans cheering him on, and he goes to Priest. Priest fires forearms and CHOPS in return! priest runs, but Rush SNAP POWERSLAMS! Cover, TWO! Priest is still int his but Rush stays cool. Rush stalks Priest to ropes, CHOKES him, but stops as the ref counts 4. Priest sputters away while Rush argues with the ref. The ref says respect the authority, but Rush whips Priest to a corner.

Priest runs, but Rush dodges to SNAP GERMAN! And KNEE STRIKE! Priest tumbles out, Rush pursues, and Rush whips Priest hard into barriers! The fans rally as Rush stalks Priest, SMACKS him off the commentary desk, then THROWS him into railing! Rush hauls Priest up, and THROWS him into more railing!

Rush stomps away on Priest but the ref counts. Rush pushes the ref aside to keep stomping! The ref reprimands, Rush argues with him, and Rush drags Priest up to put him in the ring. Rush puts Priest in the corner, stomps a mudhole in, then fires fists! Rush again tells the ref to back off. Rush pumps his fist and the fans chant along, “RUSH! RUSH! RUSH!” Rush finally goes to the corner, “If you mess with the bull…” BULL’S HORNS! Cover, Rush wins!

Winner: Rush, by pinfall

Priest put up a fight, but not enough to stop El Toro Blanco! Rush then demands a mic and a mic is brought. Rush has them stop his music, and he tells Priest to listen. “Remember: When you mess with the bull… You get the HORNS!” A simple enough message, but will Rush make sure to bring more gold to LFI in the near future?

Konosuke Takeshita speaks.

“Okada… Out of respect for Don Callis and the Don Callis Family, I tried to avoid this. But if you really wanna face me at Double or Nothing, I will happily take your title. B*TCH!”

Kazuchika Okada responds.

“Takeshita. I don’t fear you. I don’t like you. I don’t respect you. But…” Okada then shifts into Japanese to call Takeshita out for being a selfish bastard who has it all wrong! At Double or Nothing, Konosuke will LOSE! The Rainmaker and The Alpha are finally having out this sibling rivalry within the Don Callis Family, but who proves they’re truly the golden boy?

Alex Windsor & Persephone VS Thekla & Skye Blue!

Jamie Hayter is sidelined again thanks to The Toxic Spider, and that really sets Iron Will Windsor off! But when in need of an ally, the Goddess of the Underworld stepped forward! Will the combined power of the NJPW Strong & CMLL World Women’s Champion be enough to crush two-thirds of the Triangle of Madness? Or are they simply falling into a trap?

The teams sort out and Windsor starts against Thekla, but then Thekla tags out to Skye just to troll Windsor. Windsor and Skye get face to face, then they start shoving. Skye dodge a lariat to THROWS Windsor by her hair! Skye taunts Windsor, scuffs her, but Windsor blocks a kick to ROCK her! Skye hits back, they go forearm for forearm, and the fans rally up! Skye blocks a shot to CHOP, but Windsor CHOPS in return! And CHOPS, CHOPS, CHOPS! Skye CHOPS, CHOPS, CHOPS! The fans “WOO~” with every CHOP, but then Skye runs, only for Windsor to dodge! Windsor redirects Skye and RUNS her over!

The fans cheer Windsor, but Thekla runs up to CLOBBER her! The fans boo and the ref reprimands, but Perse storms in! She CHOPS, CHOPS, CHOPS Thekla, then Windsor fires hands on Skye. They send Skye & Thekla into each other, then Perse scoops Thekla to BACKBREAKER! Windsor whips Skye to the corner, LARIATS, then she tags Perse. Perse GAMANGIRIS, and Windsor tells Jamie Hayter that this one’s for her! The DOUBLE CHOPS start up on Skye, again and again, then they DOUBLE DOUBLE- NO, Thekla stops the chops!

BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!

Rush got a tough fought victory tonight against Adam Priest, and he looks to keep momentum going on Wednesday! Who else will get the horns? Then, with the challenge issued and accepted, we will get The Divine Dominion VS #Shidalander for the AEW Women’s World Championships! Will Megan & Lena continue to dominate? Or will Shida prove she can be trusted when she and Stat take the titles?

Willow Nightingale speaks.

“So they’ve been calling me the Comeback Killer. And hey, listen, you know me, I hate to rain on anyone’s parade, because I know how hard it is to come back from injury. But if you wanna come back at my expense, I’ll show you exactly why I gladly accepted such a nickname. Shida found out, Aminata found out, and Kamille found out. So, whether you’re curled up at home, or you’re rehabbing in the gym, or you’re sitting in that locker room, sitting in catering, sitting across from me, or sitting next to me, I am the TBS Champion, The Face of TBS. I am Willow Nightingale, and I am at your service.”

The Opps walk ‘n’ talk backstage.

Samoa Joe is happy to see “Speak ‘n’ Spell” Shibata again, and he asks what Hook’s been up to. Hook says he’s been holding it down, recruiting for them, that kinda stuff. Aight, cool. Speaking of which, Anthony Bowens steps in and says they’re just the people he was looking for. Bowens welcomes Joe back, and reminds Hook that he said he’d have an answer by “next week.” Turns out, that’s tonight. Bowens is getting tired of waiting, he needs an answer. Is he in The Opps or not? Hook says Bowens needs to take a step back. There is one problem: No more vacancies! Joe asks Bowens, “Do you hear him? Was he clear enough for you? There’s no more vacancies in The Opps.

“Because it sounds like we found our newest one.” Bowens smiles as he and Joe shake hands on it. Hook seems a bit surprised, but he says Bowens passed the test. Welcome to the crew. Bowens smiles, will The 5 Tool Player be just the thing The Opps need to rise back up in AEW?

Six Man Tag: Chris Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate w/ MVP VS The Demand!

The Ayatollah of Rock ‘n’ Rolla returned “home” to AEW, only for Ricochet, Toa Liona & Bishop Kaun to rain on his parade. And after ruining his return to PPV, bald, Ricochet had the audacity to say losing to him was Jericho’s new gimmick. But Ricochet made quite the miscalculation saying no one wanted to team with Jericho to face them. The Demo God called upon the All Mighty & The Standard of Excellence not because they like each other, but because they all despise The Demand! So now, will Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate put the hurt on Bald, Dumb & Ugly? Or will The Demand find a way to add Lashley & Shelton to their list?

The trios sort out and MVP joins commentary while Jericho keeps the fans fired up. Jericho steps up to start against Ricochet, they circle, but then Ricochet tags Kaun. Kaun tags Liona, and they threaten Jericho 3v1. But duh, Lashley & Shelton step in! The fans cheer as these six stare down, and Jericho gets the fans even hotter! Then the brawl is on! The fans cheer as Jericho goes after Ricochet, Lashley throat chops Liona, and Shelton fires off on Kaun! Jericho CHOPS Ricochet, Ricochet fires hands, and Kaun fires shots on Shelton! Shelton just frowns, then ROCKS Kaun! Jericho CLUBS Ricochet but Ricochet CHOPS back!

Ricochet runs up but Jericho TOSSES him out! Shelton ROCKS Kaun, Kaun kicks low, Jericho WRECKS Ricochet with a dropkick! The fans cheer as Shelton STEP-UP KNEES Liona! Lashley RAMS Kaun! Then NECKBREAKER! Lashley LARIATS Kaun up and out, and the fans fire up as Shelton dodges Liona! Shelton comes back to SATELLITE DDT! Liona tumbles out and the fans cheer again. Jericho joins Lashley & Shelton in the ring, then Jericho climbs up! Jericho aims, shrugs, and SUPER CROSSBODIES! Down goes The Demand and the fans fire up again! Jericho is loving it, and so is The Hurt Syndicate, as Collision goes picture in picture.

Jericho stands with Shelton & Lashley, hands raised as if they’ve won already. Ricochet sputters while Jericho keeps the fans chanting. Jericho goes out to line up another shot, and he AX- NO, Liona catches him and POSTS him! Jericho hobbles, Liona runs up on him, and LARIATS him down! Liona storms around, drags Jericho up, and Liona whips Jericho hard into railing! Kaun and Liona high-five and throw up the three for Demand. The ref reprimands but The Demand regroups. Liona tags Ricochet, Ricochet SMACKS Jericho off the apron, then shoves him in the ring. Ricochet AX HANDLES Jericho down, then clamps on a Ground Cobra Twist!

Jericho endures, Ricochet CLUBS him down, then Ricochet THROWS Jericho by his hair! The ref reprimands but Ricochet tags Kaun. The Demand mugs Jericho, Kaun CHOSP him, then Kaun RAMS Jericho int he corner again and again! The ref counts, Kaun tags Ricochet back in, and they continue to mug Jericho. Ricochet clamps on the Ground Cobra Twist again but Jericho endures. Playoff Palooza returns to single picture as the fans rally. Jericho fights up, fires body shots, then CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS again! Jericho reaches for his corner but Ricochet CLUBS him in the back! Ricochet runs, but Jericho BACKDROPS him!

The fans fire up while both men are down! Ricochet hot tags Kaun, and Kaun blocks Jericho’s path! Jericho reaches out but Hurt Syndicate are just too far away! Jericho endures the bearhug to BELL CLAP! Kaun swings, Jericho dodges, hot tag to Lashley! The fans fire up as Lashley CLOBBERS Kaun, BLASTS Liona, and TOSSES Ricochet! Lashley RUNS Kaun over again, RAMS Ricochet, then RAMS Kaun! And then back to Ricochet! Then MILE HIGH FLATLINER! Then a kick and gut wrench for Kaun! DOMINATOR! Cover, Liona breaks it! The fans boo but Liona drags Lashley up. Liona CLUBS Lashley, whips him, but Lashey reverses!

Lashley LARIATS Liona up and out, then tags Shelton! Shelton waits on Kaun, then slips around to GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up as Shelton GERMAN SUPLEXES again! Then STEP-UP KNEE for Liona! Kaun runs up, Shelton slips around again, GERMAN SUPLEX! Ricochet leaps in, but Shelton gets him for a GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up as Rip City is now Suplex City! Shelton tags Jericho, Jericho winds up, and he trips Ricochet! Ricochet fights the turnover, Liona runs up, but Jericho dodge! Jericho kicks a shin, then trips Liona! But Ricochet POSTS Jericho first! The fans boo but Lashley TOSSES Ricochet!

Lashley RAMS Ricochet, then runs again, but Liona trips him up! Liona drags Lashley out, fireman’s carries, SAMOAN DROP! Ricochet goes up, Jericho SHORYUKENS! And CHOPS! Jericho goes up, up, and rains down fists! The fans count along as Jericho gives Ricochet nine, then TEN before the SUPER STEINER! Ricochet flounders, the fans fire up, but Kaun is up! HAYMAKER!

The fans are thunderous, but Kaun storms in! The ref stops Kaun, and that lets Liona drag Ricochet to safety!

Lashley CLOBBERS Liona and THROWS him into railing! Shelton does the same to Kaun! But Ricochet LOW BLOWS Jericho!! The fans boo but Ricochet pushes Jericho down, and hits the “RICOSAULT!” Cover, Demand wins!!

Winners: The Demand, by pinfall

MVP is as upset as anyone, The Demand used misdirection to steal another victory! But is Ricochet right? Is Jericho just the guy who gets beat up by The Demand every week he shows up? Or can Jericho turn things around before it gets any worse?

My Thoughts:

A very good episode for Collision, and I almost thought Playoff Palooza was gonna be delayed because of, well, playoffs. But anyway, great opening promo, much better than their usual “cold opens.” It certainly teased something for FTR VS Conglomeration, but there’s still FTR VS C&C to settle. And it fits the nature of “Double or Nothing” to raise the stakes on the title match. The Street Fight nature was already No Disqualification, and an I Quit match was already No Disqualification, so putting them together is both logical and not. But I suppose having New York themed items handy to beat each other with until someone verbally gives up is still a great combination. I would think C&C wins, though, so that they don’t have to break up.

As for Conglomeration VS Don Callis Family on the Don Callis Family’s fourth trios title match, great stuff, though maybe a little clunky at parts. Great win for Conglomeration, but who knows who they get for Double or Nothing. Great promo from Moxley and Ospreay, and Ospreay not crushing Moxley was clearly the right move for building some intrigue. Ospreay might not join Moxley & The Death Riders, but being trained by them would make for some good story. Feels like AEW is taking inspiration from DC Comics given their partnership, this is very much Slade Wilson training Dick Grayson to go from Robin into Nightwing.

Great little promo of Harley & Mina confronting Shida with Kris in the room. Shida is doing great playing this passive aggressive Face, especially with how enthusiastic she is for Kris. Great showing for B3CCA against Kris, but Kris was of course still winning. We’re definitely getting a tag match of #Shidalander VS Mina & Harley, and that can be when Shida turns on Kris. Rush VS Adam Priest was way better than it needed to be, but that’s good for Priest. Though, now it makes me wonder what Rush is even doing. What is LFI as a whole even doing? That group has felt either neglected or just cursed ever since they started in AEW, Tony Khan needs someone to help book this stuff.

Great tag match from Windsor & Persephone VS Thekla & Skye, but duh, of course Julia Hart would affect that ending. I’m still thinking we see a Triple Threat of the three women’s championships, but maybe we see Skye or Julia go after Perse’s title just so Perse can successfully defend the CMLL Women’s title on an AEW PPV. I’d rather have the Triple Threat to really make things interesting. Great National title match and another great showing for CLØN, but I figured Jack Perry would win. Between his reign just starting and Clon kinda being on standby until Hologram returns, this was an obvious outcome.

Good promos from Takeshita and Okada to call each other out, but they’re already pretty high in heat. The only thing that could add more is a brawl. Very good promo from The Opps for them to accept Bowens, but like, shouldn’t this have been aired during Dynamite? Joe was still in his gear! And very good main event Six Man Tag, though there was that moment when Lashley stumbled that was worrying, almost thought he hurt his leg. In the end, Demand of course wins by bending the rules like always. To me, this story is already the flipside of the usual “Jericho Vortex.” When Jericho was a Heel, he was always getting the better of his Face rival, and the Face would ultimately win in the end. With Jericho as a Face, he really is going to be losing again and again until we reach the blowoff/

My Score: 8.8/10
