Matthew & Nicholas Jackson want their own Elite security to get a good look at who they’re looking for. Nick then says, “Hey, Darby Allin, ya p*ick! You attacked The Elite unprovoked last week, so guess what? You’re barred this week.” Matt adds that in the interest of having the safest locker room in the business, sorry, no Darby allowed tonight. Matt tells the security to be very careful, Darby is resilient. He broke his foot, practically got Final Destination’d by a bus, and he’s still standing, and out for blood! Do NOT let this man in the building! What’re they doing still standing here? Get to your positions! And tuck your shirts in!
In walks Sonjay Dutt and he wants to commend these two for the great job they’ve been doing, and for knowing how to take care of problems. Darby won’t be an issue tonight. Last Saturday, they took care of two more problems in FTR thanks to The Righteous & Lance Archer. And tonight, it all comes to a head. Sonjay’s Indian Giant destroys the American Dragon. Matt says if Satnam beats Bryan, cool. But if he hurts Bryan, great. Alright, so long as the money’s in the envelope with a few rupees, because tonight, Satnam breaks Bryan like a pencil! HAHAHAHAHA! Sonjay heads out, Matt tells everyone to keep the energy up, next segment! Can he get some water? Thanks.
Bullet Club Gold is here!
Bakersfield, California fires up as The Bang Bang Gang brings their gold to the ring in a little black wagon. Granted, they don’t need all nine belts, just the one set that represents the Unified AEW & ROH World Trios Championships. Though, they do like to mix and match as they hold one each. Jay White gets the mic and hushes the crowd before saying, “Well, well, well, look at you! The greatest three man team in the game is here!” Fully Cocked Colten Gunn! Switchblade Jay White! And… Austin! THE Unified Trios Champions, the Bang Bang Gang! And White knows what they want. Guns up for the Bakersfield Gold Members~!
But y’know, on that note, White thinks there might be one very special little gold member out there walking around feeling confused, asking himself how he ended up in the situation he’s in. How he ended up burning int he spotlight at the feet of the Bang Bang Gang! That one little gold member is… Pac? Puck? Pock? Pack, but without K. Oh. Okay, okay, Pack. Let White tell him how you ended up here! You made three big mistakes! One: when the Bang Bang Gang is walking down the halls, you run, scatter, turn the other way. What’d Pac do? Looked at them with… that face.
Mistake two: When Bang Bang Gang handled Bang Bang Gang business in this ring with “Azucar” Rocky Romero, one little Bastard decided to stick his ugly bastard nose where it doesn’t belong. Mistake three and biggest of all, Pack, is questioning them. He asked, begged, pleaded for them to make him care, so they gave him what he asked for. But see as the- WAIT! Pac is on the tron! And he tells the Bang Bang Toy Guns that this is what he’s talking about! They warmed him up a bit. And he can’t even be made at them. Like they said, he provoked them first. But gentlemen, three on one? That’s not exactly fair now, is it?
So allow Pac to introduce them to his amigos. His hermanos! His LUCHA BROTHERS! The fans fire up as Penta El Zero Miedo, Rey Fenix y The Bastard, Pac, all stand as one! Death Triangle is reunited! White & The Gunns get ready, but Pac TACKLES White while the Lucha Bros DOUBLE SUPERKICK the Ass Boys! Pac throws adown fists, the others brawl, and the fans fire up! Pac ROCKS Colten, ROCKS Austin, but White knees low! White puts Pac in a corner but Pac dodges to stomp away! Death Triangle stomps away on the whole Bang Bang Gang! They then SUPERKICK everyone out! The fans are fired up but the Bang Bang Gang is in retreat!
Pac gets a mic to tell the boys, “You think you’re hard? Well this Sunday, Double or Nothing, AEW Unified Trios Championships! You think you’re hard? I guess we’ll find out.” Death Triangle wants gold again, will they take it from the Switchblade and his boys?
Chris Jericho is here!
The Learning Tree makes his way out, “Big Bill” Morrissey right behind him, because Jericho is joining commentary for what’s up next.
FTW Championship #1 Contender’s Triple Threat: Hook VS Katsuyori Shibata VS Bryan Keith!

Keith fires down elbows, but Hook still lifts! Keith fires down more elbows, but Hook tries again! EXPLODER! Both men are down, the fans fire up, and Hook rises.

The ref has the two men let off of Keith, and declares they BOTH win?!
Winners: Hook & Katsuyori Shibata, by submission (both challenge Chris Jericho for the title)
The fans don’t want a draw, they want Hook and Shibata to fight it out! But Jericho gets on the mic and says yeah, he agrees! Hi, Bakersfield! He just wants to get camera time, right? But Rick Knox, what an interesting call. Two winners, two contenders, makes his job a little harder at Double or Nothing. But such is life, huh? Just gotta say, Hook and Shibata, he’s proud of you both for everything they’ve picked up from The Learning Tree and the Jericho Vortex. But he’s gotta warn you, as the longest reigning For The World Champion in history at over 33 days, he’s just getting started.
So even though it’ll be the first-ever Triple Threat “For The World” Rules match, he’ll walk out of Vegas the winner. Thanks, everybody! But he’s not losing to anyone ever, okay? Thanks, guys! Tony Khan texts Tony Schiavone, and it is official! The first ever FTW Triple Threat, will going Double or Nothing only guarantee Jericho loses?
Konosuke Takeshita w/ Don Callis VS Matt Sydal!
The Alpha wants to be IWGP World Heavyweight Champion, but he’s only getting a Title Eliminator match at Double or Nothing. Will the Zen Assassin simply be used as a warm-up and a warning for Jon Moxley?
The bell rings, Takeshita knees Sydal low then CLUBS him down! Takeshita brings Sydal up to CLAW Sydal’s face, then lets off as the ref reprimands. Takeshita drags Sydal up, and throat chops him!

No honor, no respect, and the fans boo! But Callis loves it! Takeshita stomps away on Sydal, but then here comes Moxley! The Maniac was gonna be here either way, and Takeshita wants to know where he’s coming from! Moxley slips in from the crowd, has a mic, and he steps up to Takeshita. Then he DECKS Takeshita with the mic! The fans cheer Moxley on as he paces around. Moxley kneels and tells Takeshita he’ll see him at Double or Nothing.
Takeshita sent a message with his win over Sydal, Moxley just sent his response! Will this Title Eliminator turn into a slobberknocker?
The Young Bucks speak, again.
Nick tells Darby Allin, “you stupid idiot,” that they know he’s watching from somewhere in Bakersfield. They saw him on the travel list, but again, he is banned from the arena! The tech staff is given wanted posters of Darby just so they know, and Matt says it’s time to actually run this show. But sitting at gorilla, right in their spot, is Swerve Strickland! The Realest asks, “What up, turds?” Oh, sorry, is this one of their seats? Matt says it’s fine, he’s the champ, he can make himself at home. Good to see him, by the way. Also, has he seen Darby? He’s banned from the building. Swerve takes a copy of the poster, crumples it up, throws it away, and says no, he has not.
Anyway, hit his music, his match is up next. Matt says yes, of course. Someone do it! Is it this idiot’s job over here? Press the buttons!

The Leading Lady and her understudy have had just about enough of Saraya & Harley trying to troll there way to the spotlight, and now look to finally end this farce! But given she’s still parading around in Serena Deeb’s banner, will the AEW Women’s World Champion be ready for The Professor’s test this Sunday? Or will the madness truly go off the rails this close to Double or Nothing?
The teams sort out and Harley starts against Mariah, a partial rematch from last Saturday. The irony that Mariah’s Toni cosplay is also a Harley Quinn cosplay but Harley Cameron is in all black. The two tie up, Mariah waistlocks, but Harley reaches back, headlocks, and grinds. Mariah powers up and out, drops down, Harley rolls and kicks low! Harley clinches but Mariah ROCKS her! Mariah whips, Harley goes up and out, then ducks Mariah to RAM into her! Harley ROUNDHOUSES Mariah away, goes up and in, then talks trash on Storm. Harley runs but Mariah follows, trips Harley, then keeps moving to SHOTGUN!
Mariah smiles and the fans fire up as she paces around. Mariah gets Harley up, scoops, and SPIN-OUT SIDEWALK SLAMS! Then Mariah fireman’s carries, but Harley slips free to tag Saraya. Mariah waits on Saraya and the two circle. But then Saraya backs away to ropes for defense, she wants the REAL Toni Storm! The fans fire up, and Mariah tags Toni! The two former friends circle now, and Saraya ROCKS Storm! Storm ROCKS Saraya, repeat! The fans fire up as they go back and forth, and are definitely on Storm’s side. Saraya kicks low, whips, but Storm reverses and hits a THESZ PRESS! Storm rains down fists, then tags Mariah.
Storm scoop SLAMS Saraya, then Mariah offers herself up. Storm scoops Mariah to SLAM her onto Saraya! Cover, ONE! Saraya is tougher than that, but Mariah tags Storm back in. Mariah now scoops, but Storm is a bit sturdier. So Storm scoops Mariah to SLAM her on Saraya again! ELBOW DROP, cover, TWO! Tag back to Mariah, she brings Saraya up and fires forearms. Mariah snapmares Saraya, runs and KNEES Saraya down! Saraya flounders, has the ref check her, and Harley runs in to CLOBBER Mariah! Toni storms in but the ref stops her, completely missing the crazy one going after Mariah! Saraya has Harley slip away and she stomps Mariah now.
Saraya does jumping jacks to show off her cardio, and then she HEADBUTTS Mariah as Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Saraya stalks Mariah to ropes, puts her through them, and then steps onto the apron to fire off knee after knee! The ref reprimands and counts, Saraya lets off, and then she steps back inside. Harley storms right up to AX KICK Mariah down! The ref reprimands and Saraya just shrugs. Saraya drags Mariah around, whips her to the corner, then tags in Harley. They mug Mariah, Harley stomps away, then stands her up. Harley digs her boot in, lets off at 4, and then Saraya CHOKES Mariah while Harley argues with the ref! Luther protests, Storm is furious, but the Outcasts get away with that. Harley covers, TWO!
Harley stays between Mariah and Storm and drags her up. Harley bumps Mariah off buckles, tags Saraya, and they mug Mariah some more. Saraya TOSSES Mariah out, storms out after her, then drags Mariah up to RAMS her into barriers! Saraya taunts the fans, soaks up the heat, and blows a mocking kiss to Storm. Saraya digs her boots into Mariah, the ref reprimands, but Saraya drags Mariah up and into the ring. Saraya keeps Mariah from Storm, tags in Harley, and Harley RAMS Mariah into the corner! Harley then brings Mariah around for a NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Harley argues the count as Dynamite returns to single picture,
The fans rally, Harley drags Mariah up, but Mariah ROCKS Harley! And ROCKS her again! And again, and again and again! The fans fire up as Mariah just hammers away! Harley shoves Mariah away, brings her around, then JAWBREAKER! Harley runs up, Mariah dodges, and DOUBLE FACEBUSTERS collide! Mariah crawls hot tag to Storm! Storm CLOBBERS Harley, BLASTS Saraya, then goes up and over Harley! Storm runs back at the corner, blocks Harley’s boots, and puts her in ropes for a DRAPING BACKSTABBER! Saraya returns but into JAB after JAB! Saraya falls, Harley returns, but Storm HEADBUTTS!
The fans fire up as Storm poses! Storm then runs to SPLASH Harley in a corner! Harley sits down, Saraya runs in, but Storm drop toeholds Saraya into Harley’s hips! Storm laughs at them, then she drags Harley up for a SKY HIGH! Cover, but Saraya BOOTS it apart! Mariah returns, dodges the haymaker to HEADBUTT a la Storm! Mentor and protege help each other up, pose for a close up, then they each get an Outcast. “This is Awesome!” as they put Harley & Saraya up top! They each climb up, CLUB away, then coordinate. But Harley & Saraya each SMACK Storm & Mariah off buckles! STEREO SUPER SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMBS!! The Outcasts double cover, TWO!!!
Saraya & Harley coordinate now, they get Storm & Mariah in corners to stomp mudholes in! The ref counts, Saraya & Harley let off to coordinate again. They both storm back up for more, but Storm & Harley put a stop to that! They set those boots down, to plant some wet ones on their enemies! Consider their fates sealed with a kiss, because now we get STORM ZERO and MAYDAY!! Harley is then fed to a STORM ZERO!! Cover, Storm & Mariah win!
Winners: Toni Storm & Mariah May, by pinfall
This dynamic duo dominates, and now they again adorn Storm with Deeb’s banner. But wait, Serena Deeb is here! She SMACKS Luther down with a chair!! Then she JAMS Mariah, and HEADBUTTS Storm! The fans are torn as Deeb grins. Deeb brings out a SHOE! HIGH HEEL TO THE FACE!! Deeb grins as she watches Storm crawl, then she picks the chair back up. Deeb uses the chair to take a seat on Storm’s back, and then pulls on a leg! FULL METAL HALF CRAB! Storm taps out, not that this is a legitimate hold in any way! The ref reprimands, other refs rush out to tell Deeb to stop, but Deeb only lets go when she says!
Deeb has just made Storm suffer, and she takes her banner back. Will she also take that AEW Women’s World Championship when she and Storm go Double or Nothing?
BREAKING NEWS for next week’s Dynamite!
No matter what happens at Double or Nothing, there will be an AEW World Championship #1 Contender’s Casino Gauntlet match! The winner will receive their shot at the title at Forbidden Door in New York!
The Bang Bang Gang regroups backstage.
They have their wagon of gold and are laughing off that surprise from earlier. Jay White’s pretty sure he knows what Death Triangle wants! They want Bang Bang Gang’s loot! They want Bang Bang Gang’s gold~! You want the gold? This is who you bring? The Lucha Bros? When White already has THE GREATEST brother tag team behind him?

Bryan Danielson VS Satnam Singh w/ Sonjay Dutt!
The American Dragon always fights against corporate corruption, that’s why he’s standing up against The Elite alongside Team AEW this Sunday! But The EVPs have been doing everything they can to make Anarchy in the Arena a foregone conclusion. Will the One in a Billion be just the thing to ruin Double or Nothing? Or will Bryan prove everyone’s the same size when down on the ground?
As the two get in the ring, Satnam gets right in Bryan’s face. Well, Satnam’s chest does, as he’s quite literally head and shoulders above Bryan. Satnam goes to pie face Bryan but Bryan pushes that big hand away. The bell rings, the fans fire up with “YES! YES! YES!” and the two circle. Satnam puts Bryan in a corner, but Bryan dodges the chop to KCIK, KICK and KICK! “YES! YES! YES!” Bryan climbs up to fire hands but Satnam shoves him away! Satnam BOOTS Bryan down and the fans boo. Satnam stands Bryan up to bump off buckles, then stalks him to another corner. Satnam winds up to CHOP!
Bryan sputters and falls over, and Satnam soaks up the heat. Satnam drags Bryan up, suplexes, and holds Bryan up! Then the SLAM! The fans boo more while Bryan flops out of the ring. Satnam goes out after him, then RAMS him into steel steps! Sonjay clears the desk of the drinks, the action figures, the hood, everything, but then the whole thing falls apart! Satnam kicks the steel steps aside, drags Bryan over. The fans tell Sonjay how he messed that one up, but Satnam still lifts Bryan. Bryan goes to the apron! Bryan KICKS Satnam, and KICKS and KICKS! Bryan gets space, runs up, and FLYING KNEES!
Satnam staggers but stays up, so Bryan resets! FLYING KNEE again! Satnam staggers and takes a seat in the corner of the barriers! Bryan runs in to DROPKICK Satnam down! The fans fire up and Bryan rises. The fans want that again, so Bryan runs back in, only for Satnam to get up and catch him! APRON CHOKE SLAM! Bryan writhes, Sonjay is all fired up, but the fans boo. Satnam shoves Bryan into the ring, Sonjay and the rest of Team Triple J applaud, then mockingly say “YES! YES! YES!” Satnam steps in for a cocky cover, TWO! Bryan is still in this, but Sonjay pulls at a buckle pad. Satnam YANKS it right off!
Satnam storms up on Bryan, drags him up but the ref won’t let him use the bare buckle! Sonjay argues with the ref, so Bryan LOW BLOWS Satnam! Now that Satnam’s cut down to size, Bryan runs and BUSAIKU KNEES!! Satnam even hits the bare buckle! Bryan keeps moving, but Satnam still grabs him! So Bryan KICKS at the legs! And CLAWS at the eyes! And KICKS at the chest! “YES! YES! YES!” Then BUZZSAW! Satnam stays up!? This is a sturdy tree! He CHOPS Bryan, and then he looms over Bryan. Satnam hauls Bryan up, suplexes, but Bryan slips free! HAMMER ‘N’ ANVIL ELBOWS! Satnam drops to his knees as Bryan keeps going!
Bryan then shifts to the omoplata, and puts on the biggest LEBELL LOCK ever!!! Satnam endures, TRIPLE J ATTACKS!
Winner: Bryan Danielson, by disqualification
The fans boo but The Bucks said themselves that this wasn’t about getting the win but about inflicting damage! Jeff Jarrett runs the ref off while Lehtal drags Bryan up. Jarrett gets his guitar, but Bryan slips free! Jarrett avoids hitting Lethal, but then Bryan dodge shim again! BUSAIKU KNEE for Lethal! BUSAIKU KNEE for Jarrett! Sonjay tries to sneak in, but Bryan has the guitar! Sonjay clubs Bryan, but it was weak! Bryan swings, Sonjay dodges, and Satnam PUNCHES through the guitar!! The mugging continues, then Satnam hits a SPLASH in the corner! The fans boo, but now The Bucks make their way out here!
Matthew & Nicholas step out of the Codyvator and they have that envelope! That’s the payment for this hit job on Bryan! Jarrett CHOKES Bryan, then rains down fists! Sonjay receives the payment, and it looks good to him. The Bucks have Jarrett stand down, he did great. They shake hands, then The Bucks get to stomp Bryan! The fans boo as the EVPs drag Bryan to center, sit him up, and give him an E V P- NO! Bryan avoids the knees and they hit each other! Bryan KICKS and KICKS and KICKS! “YES! YES! YES!” Bryan fires hands on Matt, “YES! YES! YES!” But here comes The Rainmaker! Bryan is ready for Okada, but then JACK PERRY ATTACKS FROM BEHIND!
The fans boo as Scapegoat takes down Bryan, and now The Elite all mug him! Ripcord, RAINMAKER LARIAT!! This isn’t over, either, as they drag Bryan out of the ring and up the ramp! And surprise! There’s a table waiting! But wait, who is this pulling up to the arena? It’s DRABY ALLIN! He fist bumps Tony Khan, who drove him here!! TK can travel now!? Darby storms into the ring, armed with some kind of airsoft gun! The Elite is freaking out, but here he comes! That’s not an airsoft gun, that’s a FLAMETHROWER!! The Elite freaks out even more, and then Bryan finally gets to fight back! He fires off KICKS on Nick, then TOSSES Nick down through the table!!
The fans are going nuts, and Anarchy in the Arena is only going to be crazier! Will nothing stop the revolution against The Elite’s “revolution?”
My Thoughts:
An awesome episode of Dynamite as the go-home to Double or Nothing. For one, that was a wild way to end the show. I should’ve figured Bryan would win against Satnam, and making it by disqualification technically protects Satnam’s first singles loss. Satnam did have a great showing otherwise. The Bucks had good promos with how they banned Darby from the arena all night, which naturally meant he was showing up at the end there. Great surprise that it was Tony Khan who got him there, and then that flamethrower gun was a wild move, too. Nick ended up with serious road rash from that table crash but I would think he’s okay. But unless The Elite turns things around on Saturday, the go-home math says The Elite wins Anarchy in the Arena.
Great opening tag match from Ospreay & Cassidy VS Trent & Roddy, and I like the subtle details of Callis wanting to help Cassidy more than Ospreay. Trent & Roddy win here because there’s a very good chance Ospreay takes the title and Cassidy gets revenge on Trent. Takeshita squashing Sydal so hard was a little surprising, but Moxley getting the better of Takeshita was not. As I’ve said on the other articles, Takeshita is surely getting a win off Moxley since it’s just a Title Eliminator, and there’s a very good chance we get Moxley VS Takeshita at Forbidden Door. As such, Moxley should definitely beat Evil at NJPW Dominion in early June.
Very good tag match from Storm & Mariah VS Saraya & Harley, with a great win for Storm & Mariah but then great ambush by Deeb. Deeb stands tall, so it feels like Storm wins at Double or Nothing, maybe with help from Mariah and Mina Shirakawa to get us towards mentor VS mentor for the heart and mind of Mariah. Really good stuff out of Bang Bang Gang and Death Triangle, but Bang Bang Gang needing a backstage promo to establish they aren’t just giving up a title match was redundant. Have them say all that from the stage so that it saves time. But given that we’re getting Penta & Fenix VS Gunns, I would think Death Triangle is earning that match. Who knows how the title match goes, but it seems like a shame if Pac loses another PPV title match.
Great match from Malakai VS Kyle, a lot more than I was expecting to get as the go-home. And then what a wild mind game move from Edge, that “blood” hit so fast and hard! Brood Edge is making his AEW debut, but I can’t be sure on the math. Malakai won a match but Edge basically stood tall with that blood prank. Great Triple Threat from Hook, Shibata & Keith, but I’m rather surprised by how they did the finish. Could just be coincidental, but it was a little too much like what we saw last night on NXT with a double pin finish to make a title match into another Triple Threat. Pretty sure Hook and Shibata are now going to cancel out and Jericho retains.
Great match from Swerve VS Nick Wayne, great win for Swerve, and great segue right into that attack and chase scene. Great return for Nana there, but Christian running away muddies the math. I don’t think Swerve is losing, so something must happen on Collision to turn things around in Christian’s favor.
My Score: 8.9/10

MJF and Hangman stand, and they both go looking under the ring. MJF has a light tube?! So does Hangman! The fans fire up as the two stare down from across the way. The fans cheer for “E C DUB!” with this as Hangman and MJF step into the ring. But then MJF backs off?! The fans boo MJF being a chicken, but Hangman just goes out after him! There’s no running from this, MJF! MJF goes up the ramp, to the stage, and he hobbles as fast as he can. Hangman storms up, dodges, but then MJF dodge! MJF kicks low, then winds up, but Hangman kicks back! Hangman winds up, the fans cheer, and Hangman SMASHES that light tube on MJF’s back!
Hangman then takes MJF’s tube, and he makes sure we all see the light in MJF’s back! Then Hangman SMASHES the light tube on MJF’s head! Many fans fire up but just as many are speechless! Hangman drops the jagged piece he has left, and MJF is busted open a second time! MJF sputters through his own crimson mask as he crawls to the far side of the stage. Hangman ROCKS MJF, and ROCKS him again! MJF wobbles, flails, but Hangman ROCKS him again! Hangman winds up, runs up, but MJF dodges! MJF hurries away but Hangman just pursues him back down the ramp! Hangman literally kicks MJF’s ass to keep him moving!
Hangman stomps MJF, HAMMERS that bloody forehead, then puts him in the ring. Hangman then goes looking under the ring, and he brings out… BAMBOO SKEWERS!? The fans are already going nuts! Hangman stalks MJF, and MJF pleads with Hangman not to do it. Hangman swings, but MJF blocks! They fight over the skewers, the fans go nuts, and the two go back and forth with pushing the skewers! Hangman bridges against the top wristlock to then fight back up! Hangman DIGS the skewers into MJF’s forehead! And then HAMMERS them in!! MJF is now a shish kabab! BUCKSHOT LARIAT!!!
The standing count starts again as MJF is a bloody mess in the center of the ring! We pass 5 of 10, 7 of 10, then 8! MJF springs to life at 9 like a zombie!! But Hangman just BOOTS him back down! Hangman goes outside, looks back under the ring, and he brings out… a black bag! Fans already worry what that means, but instead of tacks, that is a steel chain in that bag! Wait, something is on the end of the chain? DOG COLLARS!? A blast from the past for MJF, and Hangman’s going to make MJF relive his American nightmare! Hangman puts one collar around MJF, and he puts the other around his own neck!
The fans are thunderous as Hangman smiles. MJF comes to, and he realizes what’s going on. MFJ panics, but Hangman keeps him from running away! Hangman reels MJF in and DECKS him again and again! Then METAL CHAIN FIST! MJF staggers out to the apron, Hangman pursues, and Hangman clears the wreckage of the table so he can go looking. Yep, a NEW table! Hangman sets this table up right in the same spot, but now LA wants fire?! Hangman asks if someone has a lighter then! The fans cheer, but it doesn’t seem like anyone has it. Hangman says that’s fine, he has something else: A BOARD COVERED IN BARBED WIRE!
Hangman places said board on top of the table, and he drags MJF up. Fans still want fire but Hangman asks someone better have a lighter than. Hangman stands MJF up, Alabama Lifts, but MJF fights it! MJF lifts Hangman, but Hangman fights it! Hangman fires haymakers on MJF, but MJF ducks one to CHOKE Hangman! Hangman ROCKS MJF again, but MJF runs up. Hangman BOOTS MJF, then goes up the ropes! But MJF uses the collar to YANK Hangman down and send him crashing through the board and table!! The fans lose their minds again and the count is climbing! We pass 5, and 7, and 9! Hangman rises at 9.99!! The last possible moment!
MJF is furious with the ref but the count is the count! MJF LASHES Hangman with the chain, then follows him back up the ramp. MJF winds up chain to CHAIN FIST PUNCH! Hangman staggers, MJF winds up again, and he ROCKS Hangman with another fist full of chain! MJF ROCKS Hangman with a bare fist this time, and now Hangman wobbles on the edge! But Hangman dodges to ROCK MJF! MJF wobbles, Hangman ROCKS him again, and repeat! Hangman winds up again, but MJF dodges! Only for Hangman to reel him in with the chain! Hangman clinches, for a BELLY2BELLY down through electrical equipment!!
The fans go nuts as things spark and explode! There are more sparks as we wait to see if either man survived! The ref hurries down there to count, and Hangman does stir. The count continues, we hit 7! And 8! Hangman rises, but so does MJF! They both stand at 9.99!! The fans are thunderous as MJF staggers around in a daze! Hangman grabs the chain and he drags MJF along! MJF crawls along, this is literal dog-walking! Hangman returns to the ring, drags MJF up with the chain, and fans chant, “He’s a Good Boy!” Hangman SHOVES MJF into the ring, then throws off the elbow pads! Slingshot and BUCK- LOW BLOW!!!
The fans boo as MJF hits the target! Hangman falls in a heap, and MJF goes out to grab the belt. MJF hobbles his way back into the ring, then takes aim with the belt. MJF winds up, runs up, and BELT SHOTS Hangman down!! The count begins but Hangman is still down at 5. And at 6! 7! 8! 9! 9.999!!! The fans are thunderous and MJF is freaking out! Hangman LOW BLOWS, then he BELT SHOTS MJF!! The fans are thunderous as Hangman goes to the apron! Hangman loads up again as the fans reach a fever pitch! Slingshot- HAYMAKER! He has the Dynamite Diamond Ring on his finger!! Then MJF HANGS HANGMAN!! The fans freak out as Hangman suffers what he did to Moxley!
Hangman is going out but he isn’t giving up, so MJF lets him go! Hangman smacks off the camera, leaving a bloody smear on the lens!! The fans are going nuts as Hangman is down in all the broken glass! He’s still down at 7! At 8! 9! 10!!!! MJF WINS!!!
Winner: MJF, by knockout (still AEW World Champion; Hangman will never challenge for the belt again)
It was a knockdown, drag out fight, and it came down to both men’s tried and true weapons. MJF’s Dynamite Diamond Ring saved him again, and The Devil reigns in the City of Angels. He then has the audacity to stand on Hangman while Hangman’s on the stretcher! What will Hangman do now that he is closed off from the top title for the rest of his life?
My Thoughts:
An awesome Revolution, but can we keep AEW PPVs shorter? The quality is always there, we just don’t need the quantity. Honestly, they could’ve just kept the PPV to the title matches and that’s still a lot because AEW has a lot of titles. But in the end, still a lot of fun in Boom ‘n’ Doom beating Infantry, though I was tempted to skip it because it was just Zero Hour. Willow VS Lena was a great match, but it was clearly to plant the seed of how Babes of Wrath were going to lose to “Divine Dominion.” Megan & Lena having the tag titles is good for them, and who knows what happens with Babes of Wrath now.
AEW continues to have fun battle royals, though sometimes the chaos is too much to follow. And what was with Lio having that wild character gimmick? But another spillover into the main card, and it was very fitting for it to come down to Jack and Ricochet. Finally, Jack wins, as he perhaps should have before, but winning in his hometown made it extra special. I’m sure Ricochet will want one last rematch, but I kinda hope he doesn’t get it. Someone else should be in this title’s story while Ricochet goes looking for other titles. He has The Gates of Agony behind him, why not try for the trios titles since that Division is wide open?
Speaking of, that was an awesome match from Okada, Fletcher & Davis VS Mistico & JetSpeed. For one, we got the dream match of Mistico and Okada, and it was such a great win for Mistico & JetSpeed. It was also a great combination with how they announced Mistico signing with AEW. Mistico has three titles now, and he is clearly very deserving from how great he is in the ring and how much fans both in Mexico and America love him. Maybe DCF want the trios titles back, or maybe they move on because of their own singles titles. Konosuke and Okada can still argue with each other about who is a better champion, even if they can’t remake the Unified Championship. Honestly, that’s for the better, I did name that belt the Okada VS Omega title when they first showed it off.
Moxley VS Konosuke was also awesome, and Konosuke was so close here, but Moxley winning out is fine. Ospreay returning during this point was awesome, too, but that moonsault off the top was a little scary cuz I thought he hit his head on the apron or something. But clearly, Ospreay is feeling great, and he can work his way back up the ranks for the Summer. Somehow, someway, he’s getting to be a major part of All In: London 2026. Swerve VS Brody was great, but it felt like it went by quick. Swerve bringing the cinder block back is another great sign of how he’s relapsing into his old self. Omega returning here was great, and clearly Omega VS Swerve is for Dynasty.
Toni VS Marina was a great match, and a great win for Toni. But wow, Ronda Rousey is in AEW. Well, she had a tiny part in ROH a year or so ago when she teamed with Marina Shafir against Athena & Billie Starkz. Now Ronda & Marina might face Toni & Mina, they might even go for the tag titles, but who knows. Let’s just hope that with Ronda entering as a Heel, she can embrace that character and be better received than the latter part of her WWE run. Thekla VS Kris was awesome, too, except for how the last fall came down to Triangle of Madness helping Thekla. Yes, Heels cheat, and maybe it protects Kris, but it just feels wrong that Thekla still needs help and can’t just finish this on her own.
In similar fashion, FTR VS Bucks was an awesome opener until Stokely factored in. It was still another epic that referenced all the other matches between them, and seeing Cope & Christian returning, it all makes sense now as to why The Bucks had to lose. They even teased that maybe there’d be a Triple Threat of FTR, Bucks and C&C, but who knows. Andrade VS Bandido was great stuff, and Bandido busting out the deadlift Blackjack 21 Plex was wild. Too bad that didn’t win it for him. Andrade of course won out, he needs to position himself as #1 contender. And just as I said last night, that’s because he’s going after MJF.
MJF VS Hangman was an awesome main event, where they also referenced great things from previous showdowns, as well as each individual history, such as the dog collars from MJF VS Cody Rhodes. But just as MJF won out and denied Cody the world title for ever and ever, that happens here tonight. As I’ve said since the moment Hangman chose such a stipulation, it’s really wild that he’s doing this with AEW only six years in. But Hangman’s already done so much in these six years, he’s a Triple Crown Champion, and could complete the Grand Slam if he wins any of the midcard titles. As for MJF, he and Andrade can have a great build to Dynasty.
My Score: 9.1/10

The Babes of Wrath speak.
Harley Cameron calls out Megan Bayne and Lena Kross! Then she turns to Willow Nightingale and says they might be in over their heads. Willow says no, they are the inaugural AEW Women’s Tag Team Champions, and have been for 94 days. Every time the go out there, they overcome the odds. But now these odds are gigantic. Yes, but Megan has tried with Marina Shafir, has tried with Penelope Ford, and now Lena- Harley says Lena plays dirty. True. But Willow will handle Lena in Zero Hour, then the Babes handle both of them on the main show. So they’re gonna go out there, go out swinging like always, and give it their all, all for these! Is Harley with her? YES!
Harley tells Megan & Lena that they’re gonna eat glitter and sh*t out cotton candy! These are the Babes, they have wrath, and they’re gonna do this! Well, it seems they’re 75% confident, but will that other 25% show up when it counts?

AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.
The Dogs regrouped in the parking lot, seething from what happened with The Conglomeration. Clark Connors tells Roderick Strong, “The first time we tagged against you, you ditched Orange Cassidy. We thought we saw something in you. We thought we saw a Dog in you. Turns out, you’re just a little b*tch!” David Finlay adds, “A little b*tch that’s earned a spot on our hit list. See, we live by one simple rule: It is blood for blood! So you alongside Orange Cassidy & Darby Allin have earned a very special spot on our hit list. Your bodies are the next ones we collect!” Revolution is about to be a wild one, because it will be a TORNADO TRIOS MATCH of The Dogs VS Darby, Cassidy & Roddy!
AEW hears from the Blackjack 21-Man Battle Royal field.
Rocky Romero points out that the AEW National Championship is on the line in this battle royal! Dralistico y Rush say at Revolution, one way or another, they’re winning the battle royal to become a champion! Scorpio Sky says he wants to be champion again, and there’s no place he’d rather do it in the City of Angels. Daniel Garcia says this field is uninspired, he’ll beat them all because he is a winner. Anthony Bowens says he will prove he is a killer when he becomes National Champion. Hook is here and says Bowens means he’s helping The Opps take home that title. Bowens sighs and looks down, perhaps realizing what he’s gotten himself into.
Tommaso Ciampa says Mark Briscoe was just the beginning. He came to AEW not to rekindle old friendships, or even for the TNT title. He wants it all! And the next step is the National Championship! There are a lot of cards to play, but who comes out on top when gold is on the line?
Six Woman Tag: The Triangle of Madness VS Tatevik, Viva Van & Karisma!
Just 24 hours away from facing Kris Statlander in a Best 2 Out of 3 Falls match for THE AEW Women’s World Championship, Thekla and her Sisters of Sin are looking to sharpen their fangs. Will things get toxic tonight? Or will they end up in a trap game instead?
The trios sort out, Skye Blue starts against Karisma and the two circle. Julia Hart bops Karisma, then Skye BOOTS her down! The fans boo but Skye tags Julia. Skye sends Julia in and she ROCKS Karisma, then The Sisters DOUBLE GOURD BUSTER! Then they DOUBLE SUPERKICK! Tag to Thekla, the Sisters BLAST Viva & Tatevik! Thekla then hits the Spider Stance! Karsima is spooked, but she can’t get away from the SPIDER SPEAR! Cover, The Triangle wins!
Winners: The Triangle of Madness, by pinfall
That was almost too easy for the champ and her cohorts! But Thekla wants to speak so a mic is brought to her. “I am sick and tired of hearing about Kris Statlander. I am sick of the woman who makes a challenge, and then runs and hides! Kris, you are afraid of Thekla! You can’t handle Thekla! You might be more than a woman, but you’re so much less than Thekla. And on Sunday, Big Stat Daddy, YOU CAN’T RUN!” But wait! Here she comes! Thekla is a bit surprised by that, especially as the Cosmic Killer CLOBBERS Skye! And scoops Julia to TOMBSTONE! Thekla fires off on Kris, but Kris shoves her away!
Kris LARIATS Thekla down! The fans fire up as Kris takes off her belt, and T heklna wants Kris to calm it down. Kris throws the belt to Thekla?! She dares Thekla to continue where they left off! Kris turns around to show her back, and Thekla is confused. Thekla grabs the belt, winds up, and LASHES Kris! Kris grimaces, but she does not fall! The fans are going nuts as Kris says she wants another! Thekla LASHES Kris again! But Kris just stays standing! Thekla says fine, if she wants it, she LASHES again, and again, and again! The fans are torn as Kris is marked up all over her back! Thekla asks Kris if she’s had enough. Kris just stands back up!
The fans fire up as Kris shows the grit of a champion, and Thekla is speechless. So she CLOBBERS Kris instead! Thekla HAMMERS Kris again and again while the fans boo! Thekla stops so she can SPIT on Kris, and tells her that’s what she gets! But as Thekla leaves with the championship in hand, Kris gets the mic! “Thekla! I don’t want you to be afraid of me. Be afraid of what you need to do to keep me down!!” The fans fire up for that! Kris is ready to go to a very dark place to have the title again! Who proves they can truly dominate the AEW Women’s Division?
Marina Shafir speaks.
“Years ago, Toni, I asked you for some advice. And you said, ‘Marina, stay in your lane, do what you do, don’t change a thing.’ And that was some sound advice coming from someone who ended up going bat s*it crazy. But hey, I listened, and it worked. But now, you’re veering into my lane, and it sounds like someone’s gotten high off their own supply, and they can’t take their own advice. So that’s left me with no choice. Toni… You are driving into violent, dangerous, relentless territory. And I don’t care who or what you’ve become. But because of your advice, I’m now one of one. There is no one in professional wrestling who can do what I do. I fear no one, and I violate everyone.
“Hollywood may be your home, but your decision to veer into my lane is going to cause a car crash so obscene that your lovers, butlers, and fans will not recognize you. Your own mother will not be able to identify you. But hey, thanks for the advice.” The Problem has issued her ultimatum, but will The TIMELESS Toni Storm have the solution?
Six Man Tag: The Demand VS Bang Bang Gang!
Speaking of that AEW National Championship, Ricochet and his Gates of Agony are not sweating the Blackjack Battle Royal. They want all the gold they can get their hands on, will they make strides back towards other golden opportunities? Or will Ace Austin, Austin Gunn & Juice Robinson hit the jackpot even before Revolution?
The trios sort out and while San Jose wants Juice, Ace steps up to face Ricochet. The fans do cheer Ace as he circles with Ricochet, and the fans taunt Ricochet with, “BALD! BALD!

You see, as everybody already knows, this Sunday at Revolution, there will be a 21-man battle royal for MY AEW National Championship! And the thing is, it’s funny because it seems that this company is doing everything that they can to try and sabotage my title reign.
“But listen to me. It doesn’t matter how many people are in this battle royal. And it doesn’t matter how loud these imbeciles, these morons, boo. Because I know you can hear me. And it doesn’t matter if it’s 21, 41, or 101, because the only one that matters is me! And at Revolution, I don’t care if Tony likes it or not, I will walk in as the National Champion, and I will walk OUT the National Champion! Because I am Ricochet, and I am Outta This World!” The fans continue to boo, but will Ricochet need his Gates to help him block out all his challengers?
Jack Perry speaks.
“Tomorrow night isn’t just a PPV for me. It’s not just a battle royal. It’s not just a championship match. For me, it’s an opportunity to realize a lifelong dream. And to compete inside the building that I used to go to as a little kid, that made me want to become a professional wrestler… Things have gone way differently than I thought they would. People told me I couldn’t do it, I have failed over and over and OVER again! But I can’t fail this time. Because this isn’t just for me. It’s for my friends. It’s for my family. It’s for that little boy who sat in the front row all those years ago. Ricochet, I’ll see you at Revolution.”
Jungle Jack may be back in Hollywood, but will his real-life story finally have that fairytale ending?
Toni Storm speaks.
The Timeless One lies down on the floor, and says, “You think the circus is a happy place. But if you stand close enough to the ring, you start to see the truth. The paint is cracked, the performers are exhausted, and the animals are tired of pretending. I’ve been in the circus long enough to know how it really works. Every circus beast believes it rules the ring. They pace, they rage, they bare their teeth. But when the whip cracks, they sit. Marina, you stomp and snarl like you’re the terror of the tent, but don’t forget who has the whip. Every circus ends the same way: The lights fade, the music dies, and someone is left lying in sawdust.
“At Revolution, when we reach our final act, you will realize… That you were but a performer~… in Circus Timeless!” Toni has issued her response, but will she truly be the ring leader at Revolution? Or will she be made the butt of the joke?
Lena Kross VS Mina Shirakawa!
The Aussie Amazon is aimed right at the AEW TBS Championship and AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championships, but she’s looking for something to whet her appetite. Will the Fighting Gravure Idol be a mere morsel before Revolution? Or will Mina show Lena’s bitten off more than she can chew?
The bell rings and the two circle. The fans rally up for Mina as she steps to Lena, but Lena pretends she can’t see tiny Mina. Mina stomps Lena’s foot! Mina headlocks, Lena powers out, and Lena RUNS Mina over! Lena grins, but Mina gets up to headlock again. The fans rally for Mina but Lena powers up, out, and RUNS Mina over! Lena flexes, but Mina is right back with body shots! Mina headlocks again, but Lena powers out. Mina dodges, runs, then slides under! Mina does her shimmy but Lena waistlocks her! Mina fires elbows then victory rolls to send Lena into buckles. Mina runs up and ELBOWS Lena!
Mina whips, Lena reverses, and Lena scoops Mina to FALL AWAY SLAM! Lena stands tall quite literally but the fans boo. Lena storms over to Mina, cocky cover, TWO! Lena smirks as she stands over Mina, then drags her up. The fans rally for Mina but Lena ROCKS her! Mina ROCKS Lena, but Lena CHOPS back! Mina ROCKS Lena again, and again, and again! Mina headlocks, but Lena CLUBS her down! Lena hauls Mina up, but Mina fires fast hands and a SOBAT! Mina runs, but Lena scoops! Mina slips through, but Lena shoves her away.

Mina aims but Lena gets away! The fans boo but Mina hops down to then run and PENALTY- NO! Lena blocks the kick! Lena has Mina for the Electric Chair, and SLAMS her off the apron! The fans are torn but Lena soaks up that heat while Collision goes picture in picture.
Lena drags Mina up, brings her around, and throws her into the ring. Mina flounders but Lena storms up to cover, TWO! Mina toughs it out but Lena stays focused. Lena also stays cocky as she snap suplexes Mina, then covers, TWO! Lena might just be toying with Mina at this point as she keeps hold of her by her hair. Lena drags Mina up, but Mina fires forearms! Mina roars, runs, but Lena LARIATS her down! Then she sits Mina up for a SLIDING LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Mina survives but Lena just drags her back up. Lena whips Mina to a corner, then runs up, and she blocks a boot to ROCK Mina! Then ELBOW her!
Lena goes side to side for a BOOT of her own! Then GERMAN SUPLEX! Mina flounders but Lena covers, TWO! Lena is annoyed with Mina, and Mina crawls to a corner while Collision goes to break.
Collision returns as Mina SUPER CROSSBODIES onto Lena! The fans fire up as Lena goes down! Mina rises and fires herself up, and the fans are with her as she gets Lena up. Mina puts Lena in, then hurries to the apron. Lena runs up, but Mina blocks the kick to DRAGON SCREW! Lena falls back, Mina aims, TORNILLO PLANCHA! Cover, TWO! Lena toughs it out but Mina drags her around. Mina has a leg, and she steps through, but Lena BOOTS her away! Lena rises, and she blocks the buzzsaw! Mina fires hands but Lena fireman’s carries! Mina fights free, but Lean HOOK KICKS! Lena huffs ‘n’ puffs as she shakes out the leg.
Lena drags Mina up, but Mina CLUBS her! The fans rally up but Lena ROCKS Mina! Mina roars and ROCKS Lena! The fans fire up, but Lena CHOPS! Mina ROCKS Lena, ROCKS her again and again and again, then runs. But Lena BOOTS her! Lena brings Mina around while the fans boo, and Lena grins as she fireman’s carries. But Mina fights free to a dragon sleeper! But Lena spins it around to suplex! Mina slips free again, ducks a shot, and URAKEN! Lena wobbles and the fans fire up! Mina hurries up the corner! Lena stands into the FLYING SLINGBLADE! Cover, TWO! Lena survives but Mina says let’s keep going!
Mina gets the leg, steps through, but Lena throws her away! Mina runs up, Lena gets around, GERMAN SUPLEX! Mina just roars as she rises again! The fans fire up fir Mina as she runs corner to corner, but Lean BOOTS her down! Lena then hauls Mina up, suplex and JACKHAMMER! Cover, Lena wins!
Winner: Lena Kross, by pinfall
Mina put up a fight, but this was a colossal win for Lena. She has momentum going into her TBS Championship match with Willow Nightingale, but will that turn into a win in the Zero Hour and on the main card? Or will Lena just #FeelTheWrath twice in one night?
Andrade El Idolo VS Mascara Dorada!
“The Real Latino Man” will be in non-title action against the ROH World Champion, Bandido, at Revolution, all to establish his dominance as THE luchador in AEW. And now, also in non-title action, he faces the CMLL World Historic Welterweight Champion! Will Andrade make sure everything is tranquilo just 24 hours before Revolution? Or will the Golden Mask outshine La Sombra in San Jose?
The bell rings and the fans rally, but Don Callis joins commentary. Andrade and Dorada circle while the fans rally for “LUCHA! LUCHA!” Dorada offers a handshake, but Andrade scoffs at it. The fans cheer for him to shake Dorada’s hand, so Andrade… kicks it away! The fans boo, but Dorada and Andrade circle again. They feel things out, tie up collar ‘n’ elbow, then Andrade arm-drags Dorada away! The fans applaud that as Andrade flexes. Callis points out the physique, but Dorada rolls Andrade up! ONE, and Callis says Dorada’s just jealous! Dorada sunset flips, ONE, and Andrade POP-UP- RANA from Dorada! TWO!!
The fans fire up, and Andrade RUNS Dorada over! The fans cheer again, and Andrade looms over Dorada. Andrade stands Dorada up, just to CHOP him back down! The fans “WOO~” while Andrade stalks Dorada to the ropes. Andrade KNEES Dorada low, whips him to ropes, then ducks down. Dorada rolls off Andrade’s back, slips under the boot, then waistlocks. Andrade switches, Dorada switches, repeat. Andrade shoves Dorada to ropes, then ducks under the Quebrada so he can tranquilo in the ropes! The fans cheer the standoff, and Callis says Andrade is indeed a “hot individual.” The two reset, and Dorada handsprings!
Andrade dodges, sidesteps, but Dorada flips and RANAS! The fans fire up as Andrade goes out! Dorada goes up, up, but Andrade YANKS him down fast! The fans cheer and Callis applauds, but the ref wants this back in the ring. Andrade tells Aubrey Edwards to take it easy. Andrade fist bumps with Lance Archer, then says hola to a lady in the front row. She says hola in return, and he takes her hand to give it a gentlemanly kiss. Andrade gives the lady a spin, then joins in for a selfie. The fans are torn but Callis says $20! No one rides for free with the Don Callis Family! Andrade lines up a shot, and he BOOTS Dorada down!
The fans fire up again while Andrade smirks. Andrade drags Dorada up, puts him in the ring, then stalks him to ropes. The fans rally up again with “LUCHA! LUCHA!” Andrade stands Dorada, whips him and scoops him, then BACKBREAKERS! Cover, TWO! Dorada survives, Andrade wants more lucha chants, then he goes back to Dorada. The fans start to duel between Andrade and Dorada, but Andrade shakes his head. Andrade whips Dorada, scoops, but Dorada CROSSBODIES through! The fans fire up as Dorada staggers to a corner. Andrade runs up, but Dorada dodges! Andrade tumbles up and out to the floor!
The fans fire up as Dorada lines up a shot, and he PLANCHA RANAS! The fans fire up again and even Callis admits, that was fantastic. Dorada puts Andrade in, then goes up the corner. The fans cheer as Dorada takes aim, but Andrade bails right back out. Dorada just changes course, FLYING DDT to the apron!! Andrade gets stuck in the ropes with that, but Dorada drags him down. The fans rally up as Dorada goes up, and he SUPER LIONSAULTS, but into BOOTS! Andrade turns things back around on Dorada, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Andrade laughs as he rises up again. Andrade signals he’s too smart for Dorada, then he drags him up from the ramp. The fans don’t seem to chant for Andrade so he eggs them on. Andrade then drags Dorada up, fireman’s carries, and he carries Dorada around the way. SNAKE EYES off the railing! Dorada sputters and writhes while Andrade refreshes the ring count. Andrade takes a fan’s Burberry scarf to wear it, perhaps sending a message to MJF. Andrade then fireman’s carries Dorada again, for SNAKE EYES off the desk! Archer talks trash on Dorada, then Callis gets his cheap shots in while Andrade distracts the ref!

Dorada vows to end it, but Andrade snap suplexes first! And that’s just Uno Amigo! Snap suplex for Dos Amigos! And then some Latino Heat for THREE AMIGOS! Cover, TWO! The fans cheer “EDDIE! EDDIE!” while Dorada survives. Andrade says it’s that close, and he flips Dorada into the drop zone. Andrade goes up, up, but Dorada springs to life! GAMANGIRI!

Andrade pounds the mat, the fans rally, and Dorada crawls to a corner.
Andrade rises, roars, and he goes corner to corner for CIEN KNEES! Cover, TWO! Dorada survives and Callis says that kid has no quit in him! He should stay down for his own good! But San Jose hopes these two “Fight Forever!” Andrade says hush, this isn’t lasting much longer. But then Dorada backdrops Andrade!

Dorada falls, Andrade steps in, and Callis says they’ll need a shovel to get Dorada up now. Andrade underhooks, for the DIRECT MESSAGE!! cover, Andrade wins!
Winner: Andrade El Idolo, by pinfall
An instant classic to be sure, and it is Andrade who comes out on top. But wait! Bandido makes his presence known! Only for RPG Vice to CLOBBER him! The fans boo and Andrade grins as the beat down happens. But BRODY KING CLOBBERS TRENT! Then he DECKS Rocky and stomps away on him! Brody DECKS Trent again, DECKS Rocky again, and he sends Rocky into the ring. But SWERVE STRICKLAND JUMPS IN! Swerve brawls with Brody, Brody DECKS Swerve, and they brawl their way up the ramp! Bandido DECKS Trent, then gets on the apron to stare Andrade down. Andrade welcomes Bandido into the ring, but Rocky anchors him!
The fans boo as Trent DROPKICKS Bandido down! Andrade soaks up heat as RPG Vice does the dirty work for him. The fans boo again as RPG Vice run up, but Bandido DUMPS them both out! And then Bandido FLIES onto them both! The fans cheer as The Outlaw stands tall! Andrade just hangs out with the lady he took that selfie with earlier. But Bandido still aims his finger gun. Will the Most Wanted humble the “most desired?” Or will Andrade prove he’s worthy of world championship gold in AEW?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision, especially for a go-home to Revolution. Granted, pretty much ALL of these results were a given because of that, but it was still great action. Knight VS Clon and Davis VS Komander were both great, but both Knight and Davis win because that keeps the trios equal for the trios title match. I still say Okada, Fletcher & Davis win out so that The Rainmaker can hold being a double champion over Konosuke Takeshita’s head, assuming Takeshita doesn’t win the Continental Championship from Jon Moxley. Either way, Konosuke and Okada can still feud to prove who’s really the alpha of the Don Callis Family.
Triangle of Madness squashed their opponents almost as hard as The Dogs did their first opponents. A little weird, honestly, especially with Viva Van being a local favorite and a solid wrestler period. Maybe there were time constraints? Kris toughing it out with those belt lashes was good stuff, but doesn’t this fit the Strap Match build better? I get it builds off of how that match went, so maybe it’s a wash. Very good promo from those battle royal participants, and I must have missed something when they first announced this match. I thought it was a #1 contender’s match, but it is in fact FOR the title. Seems like a real mess from TK, but I feel like Jack Perry is a given to win and finally get this title from Ricochet.
The Demand VS Bang Bang Gang was a great match, and Juice was really pouring on the goofy energy tonight. The Demand of course won to keep Ricochet strong, all the more reason that this can/should be where he loses the belt. Very good promo from Marina, and great promo from Toni. For all the times Toni uses innuendos and double entendre, it is always great when she gets poetic in her promos. Those two will have a great match, and as I said before, it should basically send the winner after the world title. Lena VS Mina was a great match, and a great win for Lena ahead of the doubleheader. The Babes had a very good promo of their own, and it still feels like Lena and Willow are gonna split the difference.
And awesome main event match from Andrade VS Mascara Dorada, they were really going hard just for Collision. The fans loved Dorada, but naturally Andrade wins out to have momentum. Good brawl with RPG Vice going after Bandido, Brody going after them, then Swerve going after Brody. Brody and Swerve are equal in math right now, but I still sense Swerve using underhanded tactics to win that. Bandido gets to stand tall over RPG Vice, but Andrade is definitely building up towards his own shot at the AEW World Championship, so I would think Andrade wins at Revolution. And if that’s the case, maybe MJF is winning against Hangman so they can use the heat they’ve built between MJF and Andrade.
My Score: 8.9/10
