PLAY BY PLAY
Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill enter the building!
The StrongEST Duo is here, ready to “meet” their next challengers, Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark. But we can see Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn lurking in the background… Will there be some wicked witches up to no good?
Liv Morgan is here!
The Liv Morgan Revenge Tour continues thanks to Dominik Mysterio messing things up again! But the real shocker last week was when Liv thanked Dirty Dom with a kiss on the lips! Liv is all smiles as she gets the mic and says, “Welcome to THE LIV MORGAN REVENGE TOUR~!” The fans are torn but Liv says the saying is, “Revenge is never as sweet as you think it’s gonna be when you finally get it.” But not for Liv~! First, she did what no other woman could do and that was take out Rhea Ripley! Then, she became the NEW Women’s World Champion! but that’s not all, because then she put Becky Lynch into early retirement!
The fans boo more and more but Liv asks if they wanna know what the cherry on top is. Kissing Dominik Mysterio~! You all know what she means. The fans saw the video, right? Over 40 MILLION views in less than 24 hours! But speaking of Dom, here he comes! The fans boo Dom even more than they were Liv, but what else is new? Dom tells Liv that he doesn’t know what kind of game she’s playing. The fans keep booing and Dom tells them to let him say his business! Dom tries again to say he doesn’t get what game she’s playing, but now the fans chant “YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!” Dom tells Liv that Mami isn’t playing games.
And when Rhea Ripley returns, she is gonna kill Liv! Liv says maybe. But she probably kills Dom, too. Liv promises to make it all worth it. The fans are intrigued. But Liv asks Dom how long he’s gonna keep on lying to himself. Dom didn’t come out last week to help Becky. He came out so he could be closer to Liv. Liv steps closer to Dom but Dom steps back. Liv says it’s okay. She meant what she said about taking everything from Rhea. That includes Dom, too. Liv has Dom cornered then puts her hand on his face. Liv smooths hand down to his chest, but then Finn Balor jumps in! Finn gets Dom’s mic to tell Liv to back off!
Liv is surprised but Finn says enough is enough! Dom wants nothing to do with Liv! NONE of the Judgment Day does! Well, what if Liv doesn’t wanna go? And what if… Dom doesn’t want Liv to go? But okay, okay, Liv will go. For now. Liv drops her mic, smiles and exits the ring, making sure Dom gets an eyeful as she does. Liv even teases his hair. Dom is flustered and frustrated, what will Mami have to say about her Latino Heat being Liv’s plaything?
Backstage interview with Sheamus.
Jackie Redmond is with The Fella at gorilla, and asks that after last week’s brawl, how pumped is he to get his hands on Ludwig Kaiser? Sheamus is very pumped up! We all saw what happened. Kaiser came outta nowhere, dropping some real bombs. And here Sheamus was, thinking this whole time that Ludwig was just Gunther’s announcer holding the General’s coat. Yes, he looks like a Ken doll, is annoying and arrogant, but maybe Gunther’s been holding Kaiser back. Maybe there’s more bite to the bark. Tonight, Kaiser sees if he can go toe to toe with the Celtic Warrior. Sheamus can hear the fans firing up already!
Sheamus says he’s on the cusp of 15 YEARS in the WWE, has been in the ring with the best of the best. And it’s always been about, “Can the fella across the ring from me gain my respect?” Only one way to do that: put on banger after banger, after banger! The fans echo that for Sheamus as he walks through the curtain and out on stage! Monday Night Raw is now Fight Night, will Sheamus and Kaiser melt it down in Hershey, Pennsylvania?

The Judgment Day regroups backstage.
Finn & JD McDonagh talk with Dom about this Liv thing, and Dom says he can’t help it that ladies are into him. He didn’t do anything. That’s the thing! Dom didn’t do anything! Dom is playing with fire, don’t get burned. Priest steps in and asks for an explanation about earlier. Finn says none needed, situation handled. Well, is that true? Dom says yeah, it’s like Finn says. Okay, nice. How about Rhea? Does she know? Dom says he’s giving her space, but everything’s fine. Really. Priest says okay, then he hopes it works out and that Dom makes things right.
But now, to business. They have enough trouble as it is, with Priest taking on Dom’s dad and Finn taking on Dragon Lee. How about they settle some scores and remind everyone why Judgment Day runs Raw? They all fist bump and the boys head out. Will The Prince be able to take down the Boy Wonder before El Campeon handles The King of Lucha? Or is this where The LWO starts to take over?
Ricochet gets taped up by the trainer.
The King of Flight thanks the doc, but then Ilja Dragunov walks in. The Czar wants to talk and Ricochet says he appreciates it, but he’s good, he’s locked in. No he’s not! But Dragunov isn’t here to stop Ricochet. Dragunov understands that people like them live close to the limit. Ricochet says he’s right, and that’s why last week, when Ricochet almost beat Dragunov, if he can walk, then he can fight. Dragunov wants Ricochet to listen. If there’s anyone who understands Ricochet, it is Dragunov. But Dragunov still wants Ricochet to be careful. Bron Breakker is just wired differently.
Ricochet says HE is wired differently! Dragunov is wired differently! They’re here because of that, Bron just forgot it. Bron has been inserting himself into their business for too long, so if Dragunov wants to settle this with Ricochet, it has to be after he smacks the fake tan off Bron. Then best of luck, friend. Ricochet heads out, but will he need to come back here for even more tape after tonight?

Finn tumbles out, the fans fire up, and Dragon builds speed to DIVE! Direct hit at the ramp and the fans fire up again! Dragon stares JD down while Raw goes to break.
Raw returns again and Finn has a chinlock on Dragon. The fans rally as Dragon endures and fights up. Finn throws Dragon down by his head, then looms over him. JD says Dragon’s got nothing, and Finn kicks Dragon around. Dragon gets mad and stands up, but Finn CHOPS! Dragon fires up and he fires haymakers on Finn! The fans fire up, Dragon whips, but Finn reverses. Dragon holds ropes, then sidesteps Finn to SNAP GERMAN! The fans fire up with Dragon and he watches Finn go to a corner. Dragon runs up to JUMP KICK! Leg sweep! Swinging DROPKICK for Combinacion Dragon! The fans fire up again but JD gets on the apron!
Dragon swipes, JD drops away, and Finn rolls Dragon up! TWO, JD is mad, but Dragon slips through Finn’s lariat to get Finn up for a SITOUT POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO!! Finn survives and Dragon is surprised! Dragon rises, he gets Finn up, and he fireman’s carries, only for JD to get on the apron! So Dragon ROLLING SENTONS Finn then DECKS JD!

Will the Strowman Express derail the Judgment Day’s plans for Raw?
Sami Zayn is backstage.
The Intercontinental Champion is on his way to gorilla, passing by Natalya as she’s talking with… Sonya Deville? Sonya was trying to get Zoey Stark & Shayna Baszler to listen to her before, will she convince The Queen of Harts to listen? As for Sami, what will he say about The Alpha Academy’s deterioration from within?
Judgment Day regroups backstage.
Priest says not for nothing, but he thought by now, the Strowman situation would’ve been dealt with. JD apologizes but Priest says don’t sweat it. And Carlito! He wants to play prospect, wants to run with the crew? Here’s an idea: go to Adam Pearce and make a match. Ask Pearce for a match of Carlito VS Strowman. Then Carlito can handle the situation. Oh, and do it tonight. Priest and the boys head out, and Carlito says that’s not cool. And R-Truth says that’s not what’s up! He feels Carlito’s pain. Being in Judgment Day is like riding a roller coaster. When you’re down, they kick you. And when you’re up, they still kick you. But those were the best days of Truth’s life.
The Miz walks in and says those were the best? They’re the World Tag Team Champions now! THESE should be the best days of his life! They stole Truth’s TV! Miz, let go of The Judgment Day stuff! Miz is obsessed! It’s starting to get weird. Truth leaves and Miz is even more confused! But will Carlito be able to stop Braun and earn his way into the Judgment Day? Or will he just #GetTheseHands?
Sami Zayn goes to the ring!
The fans fire up for the Intercontinental Champion and chant his name while he gets the mic. Sami then says, “Welcome to Pennsylvania, huh?” Good to be back, because last time he was here was WrestleMania, and we all know how that went! The fans cheer as Sami holds up the belt. But truth is, Sami hasn’t really had time to enjoy it, because the whole time there’s been this thorn in his side, Chad Gable. Chad’s tried to make this about everyone and everything else: Gunther, family, the Alpha Academy, but the truth is, this is about Chad and Sami! And after the past couple weeks, it has gone on long enough!
Here is what Sami is proposing: Chad, come out here now, leave the Academy behind, and face Sami man to man so they can put an end to all of this right here and right now! Gable doesn’t make his entrance, he sends The Academy out instead! Maxxine Dupri leads the way with a note in hand. She apologizes to Sami, but Gable says Sami doesn’t deserve his time. Gable also said The Academy needs to redeem themselves, and that starts with delivering this message. The Academy goes to the ring, Sami tells them they don’t have to do this. They don’t have to! But Maxxine reads, “From Master Gable…
“Sami, you really think you can turn my students against me? Ha ha. Sami, you are living proof that my teachings can take a pathetic excuse of a human being and make them a champion. Without my help, this ring would be filled with: a failure hanging around backstage, pretending to be a ninja; a child who couldn’t even hang onto his own Money in the Bank briefcase; a knockoff Barbie no one wanted; and a whiny, disheveled mess that Gunther would’ve squashed. I already wiped the mat with you the last time we met one-on-one, Sami, so the only way this ends is you giving me my Intercontinental Championship match.”
The fans cheer for Otis and Sami tells them to tell Gable that if that is what it’ll take, he’s got it! Sami will defend this title against Gable at Clash at the Castle! But y’know what? It isn’t about this right now, and this isn’t about talking to Gable. Sami wants to talk to the three of them right now. Haven’t they had enough? Being paraded out here, humiliated by Gable? They’re all better than that! Sami knows it and the people know it! Chad Gable does NOT get to decide what they are worth! Nnow, Sami understands, he’s been in their shoes. So take it from him, they need to set thesmelves free from Gable once and for all.
But Gable attacks from the other side!! The fans boo as Gable tricks Sami and gets him down! Gable then gives crossface forearms over and over! The fans want Otis to stand up to Gable, but Gable GERMAN SUPLEXES Sami down! Gable then tells Otis to help him finish this. Gable drags Sami up, tells Otis to do it, and Otis looks at his arm. Otis paces as he’s conflicted, but Gable gets mad! Gable shoves Otis around! Gable SLAPS Otis! Gable tells Otis to listen to him! Tozawa pulls Gable back!! The fans fire up for Tozawa, but then Gable pushes him around! The fans boo as Tozawa cowers in the corner.
Maxxine pulls Gable away from Tozawa! She pleads with Gable, but Gable mocks her begging. If she’s gonna beg, she needs to beg on her knees! Maxxine does beg on her knees! The fans boo and Otis is even angrier now! But Gable tells Maxxine and Tozawa to GET OUT! Maxxine and Tozawa listen, but then OTIS stands in Gable’s way! The fans fire up and Gable tries to reason with Otis. Otis doesn’t budge, but then Sami gets up! Sami fires off hands on Gable! Otis comforts Tozawa & Maxxine, but then Gable shoves Sami into Otis, and he knocks Tozawa & Maxxine over!! Gable blames Sami for it all when everyone else knows the truth!
The fans tell Otis to listen to Sami, but Otis doesn’t know what to do with himself! He scoops Sami for a WORLD’S STRONGEST SLAM!! The fans boo but Otis had the wool pulled over his eyes by that snake! Otis still helps Tozawa and Maxxine to the back, carrying them both. Gable holds up the Intercontinental Championship, that’s all he cares about! But will Sami make sure Gable only gets what he deserves when they meet in Glasgow?
Adam Pearce is watching this.
And then Bron Breakker walks in. “Wow. That’s your champion, huh? I would break him in half.” Pearce asks Bron what he wants. Bron says slow down, he is here, believe it or not, to congratulate him. Bron is finally in a match with some real competition. Oh, congratulate him, huh? Bron doesn’t deserve tonight’s match, only the second fine he’s incurred. And the only reason this is happening is because Ricochet wanted it. Ricochet’s someone who understands the meaning of the word, “Respect.” Oh, does he? Okay. Bron will teach Pearce and Ricochet something about respect. Pearce didn’t put Bron in the King of the Ring tournament, so now no one is holding him back.
Bron heads out, the chip on his shoulder still very large. But will that chip weigh him down against The King of Flight? Or will Braon break the WWE Speed Champion?
The Alpha Academy regroups backstage.
Gable is all excited now! They did it! Genius how Maxxine faked getting hurt so Sami would feel bad! No, she really got hurt! She can barely stand on her foot. Still in character! He loves it! And Tozawa, good night, too. But he’s also hurting. Nah, he’ll be fine. And Otis… He’s so proud! Number one guy, always was! And as a team, they will finally accomplish their goal and win Gable that Intercontinental Championship! Keep it up, everyone! Gable heads out, but will Otis see what Sami is saying soon enough?
Ricochet VS Bron Breakker!
Raw returns and the Big Bad Booty Nephew makes his entrance. The bell rings and the fans bark. But then Ricochet SLAPS Bron! Bron swings, Ricochet dodges and fires fast hands! Bron scoops, Ricochet slips free and fires off kicks, fists, and a CHOP! Ricochet whips, Bron reverses, but Ricochet goes up and over. The ribs bother Ricochet, but he still mule kicks and UPPERCUTS!

Dragunov runs out here! Bron TOSSES the steps at him, but Dragunov dodges to CLOBBER Bron! The fans fire up but Bron gets away. Bron says he’s not done with Dragunov, but will Dragunov make sure Bron is the one that breaks?
LWO regroups backstage.
Rey tells Dragon to tranquilo, he looked great out there, and would’ve won tonight if not for Carlito. That fool has taken too much away from Dragon, and Dragon will get his payback soon. But first, they gotta take away his protection. Tonight, Rey is aiming straight for the head, Damian Priest. Priest thinks Judgment Day runs things, but that doesn’t included La Raza or The LWO. Zelina says that’s right! So tonight, Rey personally delivers this message man to man, face to face. Ariba La Raza! Rey is all fired up, but will he be able to take down the World Heavyweight Champion?
Kiana James VS Natalya!
The Calculator finally has her Raw in-ring debut after being brought up in the WWE Draft, and the Queen of Hart makes her return after helping Karmen Petrovic in NXT. Jackie is with Kiana at gorilla, and says in moments, she has her first Raw match. How excited is she to finally have this moment? Kiana says as we all know, Natty is one of the most accomplished superstars in WWE history. Kiana took her time to get acclimated to Raw learning from Pearce. Pearce is fabulous at his job despite the circumstances, and she specifically asked for this match.
Kiana has huge aspirations here, and to beat The BOAT would not only validate that Kiana is “The One Percent,” but it would be a huge first step to the top. The music hits, will Kiana herself be a hit after tonight? Or will Natty show Kiana just why Natty is still one of the best today?
The bell rings and the two tie up. Natty hits a headlock and takeover fast, but Kiana rolls. Natty lets go to get up, they tie up, and Natty wrenches to a wristlock. Kiana rolls, handsprings, and wrenches to wristlock. Natty rolls, handsprings, and wrenches through to back drop! Cover, ONE, but Natty hurries to waistlock.

Backstage interview with The New Day.
Cathy Kelley is with Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston and says tonight, they face The Authors of Pain, who are led by Karrion Kross now. In recent weeks, Kross seems intent on dismantling The New Day, does that add any pressure to tonight? Woods says they’ve been here so many times, there have been people trying to do this over the years, it isn’t gonna work. Kofi says it won’t work, and the fact is, they’ve been doing this for so long, and there’s a reason why: Because they’re the best to ever do it! A lot of people have tried to come between The New Day and they have all failed. And The Authors of Pain, The Final Testament, that’s just the next team in a long line and they will fail, too.
Do you know why~? BECAAAAAAAUSE~! NEW! DAY ROCKS! Kross walks in and says he loves that chant so much! Just at shame it doesn’t hit the same anymore. And do they want to know why? Because the Power of Positivity is dead. Oh…! So Kross thinks it doesn’t hit the same? Doesn’t hit as hard? Well, The New Day does! And the AOP finds out tonight, the hard way. The New Day heads out, but Kross tells Woods that after tonight, Woods won’t have to follow Kofi around anymore. Trust him. Kross is clearly trying to get in Woods’ head, but is it working?
Natalya returns backstage.
And there’s Sonya. Ready to talk? Yes, she is. Enough is enough, time for a change! Sonya says good, but then she spots Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark. She says it is their lucky night because Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair did show up. And also, she’s been talking with Natty, and Sonya- Okay, okay, stop. They don’t care what Sonya has to say! And of course they know Bianca & Jade showed up, Zoey & Shayna invited them here! Duh! And three, these two will show Jade & Bianca who the real top team is around here. Okay, just don’t be brash. The more respect you demand, the less you actually get. Does that make sense?
Shayna is starting to think Sonya is the only one who doesn’t respect them. So just leave them alone! Zoey & Shayna head out, and again se see Alba & Isla lurking. Will Deville ditch the Queen of Spades & Hunter for some more sinister prospects?
Carlito VS Braun Strowman!
Well, it seems Caribbean Cool did just as Priest said to do, because here we are! Will Carlito even survive “handling” this situation? Or is there no stopping the Strowman Express now that he’s got a head of steam?
Raw returns and Carlito makes his entrance. He reluctantly gets on the apron, and then Braun runs up to get hiM! Carlito HOTSHOTS Braun away, the bell rings, and Carlito fires off hands!

Braun CLUBS Carlito, then TOSSES him across the way!
The fans fire up but here comes JD & Finn! Braun DECKS JD, then grabs Finn by the neck! Carlito CLUBS Braun, and BACK- NO, Braun shrugs Carlito off! INVERTED CHOKE SLAM!! Cover, Braun wins!
Winner: Braun Strowman
But the Judgment Day attack! The fans boo as Finn & JD stomp and CLUB away on Braun, but then he grabs each of them by the neck! Braun shoves them both back, to then DOUBLE LARIAT! The fans fire up but here comes Dom! CHOP BLOCK to a leg! But Braun SHOVES Dom down! Braun still hobbles, but Dom gets a chair! Braun SWATS the chair away!! Dom freaks out, runs away, but Braun pursues! Braun stalks Dom up the ramp as Dom begs for mercy! Also seems that arm is better than he lets on. But then LIV stands in the way? Liv won’t let Braun hurt her Latino Heat, and then JD DIVES onto Braun!
JD & Finn mug Braun, Carlito joins in, but Braun still fights them off! Braun TOSSES JD into the ring! JD gets that chair, JAMS Braun up, then SMACKS him on the back! Braun stands up, so JD SMACKS Braun in the chest! And the leg, and the leg, and the other leg! Finn & Carlito join in to stomp away on Braun, then holds him down for JD to fire off on those legs! Dom gets up, Liv smiles as she looks him over. Dom backs away but Liv steps forward. Finn steps outside and tells her no means no. Liv says she’s just having fun. Liv waves bye as she backs away, is Dom really gonna have to make this up to Mami?
Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill head to the ring!
The fans fire up as the storm is coming, and the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions make their way out. They get mics as the fans cheer, and Bianca says Monday Night Raw, it has been a minute since The EST has been her. But now that she is one-half of the Women’s Tag Team Champions, they gonna show up, show out, and defend the belts, no matter the brand. The fans like that! Jade says that they got a special invite here, so they’ve come to collect. Shayna, Zoey, since you wanna be so loud and run your mouths, come out and say it to their faces! Shayna & Zoey oblige as they make their entrances now.
Zoey says, “Well, well, well. Shayna, look who it finally is! Bianca and Jade!” Zoey’s shocked that these two were here., When was the last time those titles were even on Raw? In fact, Zoey & Shayna thought the champs were trying to duck ‘n’ dodge. Duck ‘n’ dodge? Jade & Bianca ain’t afraid of them! Zoey & Shayna can’t whoop them! Now, if Zoey & Shayna had the titles, then maybe the belts would be on Raw. Oh, hahaha. Bianca & Jade should be scared! Cuz once they get the title match, Shayna & Zoey will take those titles and send Bianca & Jade back to SmackDown where they’ll continue to duck the real baddest team in WWE.
Jade says why wait? These two are so confident, let’s give the people what they want! Shayna says bet! But Pearce hurries out here to have everyone hold on. He wants to make sure we’re on the same page, because normally he wouldn’t just put titles on the line on the fly. But it sounds like they all want the match here and now. Hershey, do you want this? “YES!!” Then hell, who is he to stand int he way? Let’s get a ref! They’ll have this match right now, and the women’s tag titles ARE on the line! The fans cheer for that! But will Shayna & Zoey prove they truly are the baddest team today? Or will they regret cashing in the golden tickets so quickly?

Wakanda Forever, Black Girl Magic! The fans are all fired up while Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Shayna drags Jade up, only for Jade to scoop and FALL AWAY SLAM! The fans fire up while both women are down! Jade and Shayna crawl for their corners, hot tags to Zoey and Bianca!

Winners: Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill, by disqualification (still WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions)
Jade returns to throw Isla off Bianca and then fire off on Alba, but that only gets her attacked by Isla! Shayna joins in, not even caring that the match is over! Bianca throws Shayna aside to then throw Isla. But now it’s a 4v2 mugging! The fans boo, but Alba SUPERKICKS Jade down! Shayna & Zoey stand over Bianca, Alba & Isla stand over Jade. Is the StrongEST Duo in for a wicked showdown at Clash at the Castle?
Backstage interview with Damian Priest.
Cathy Kelley is now with El Campeon, and says The Judgment Day has had quite a bit of success tonight. How is he planning on capitalizing in the main event against Rey Mysterio? Priest says yes, it has been a good night. It feels right. As far as Rey goes, that guy has been a thorn in their side. So tonight, as much as Priest respects Rey’s fight and willingness to not quit, Priest must close the door on this issue. So tonight, Priest is done with Dom’s dad. Then speaking of, she’d be a bad journalist if she didn’t ask about Dom and Liv- Hey, cool it with the Liv stuff. But then in steps Drew McIntyre.
The Scottish Terminator says Priest’s in a good mood. Yeah, he’s world champ. Every day is a happy day. How’s McIntyre’s life? Oh, it’ll be good in a couple weeks. Sure it will. McIntyre tells Priest to enjoy this now. He is in his prime, this is as high as Priest goes. So live it up! McIntyre really does believe in Priest. But Priest wants to make it personal, so now it’s personal. See you soon. McIntyre leaves, Priest says that guy has issues. But will Priest settle his issues with The King of Lucha so he can focus on Clash at the Castle?
Jey Uso is here!
The fans fire up as Main Event Jey makes his way down from the bleachers! The fireflies come out and they bounce with Jey, and he stays up there as he gets the mic. Jey asks if they’re ready for the summertime~, let him hear ya say, “YEET!” “YEET!” Jey says hey to lil’ man here, he likes the shirt. But ya boi still has big plans for himself, right? “YEET!” Last summer was Money in the Bank, Bloodline: Civil War. That was tough on Jey. He lost his brothers, his cousin, his family. Real talk, he stayed in the fight because he knew one day he could fight on his own. “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Jey is serious, though. He wasn’t just a Right Hand Man. “YEET!”
Jey knew that one day, Uce, he could finally be THE Main Event Jey Uso. “YEET!” So with that said, y’all… Jey wants to take this time to thank everyone for yeetin’ with him on this journey. The fans cheer that! “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Jey gives his sunglasses over to the fans, and says they all been rockin’ with him, time for him to deliver. He has a plan, you wanna hear it? “YEET!” He gonna climb that ladder, “YEET!” get to the top, snatch that briefcase, and become MR. MONEY IN THE BANK! “YEET!!” Jey has already declared for that match, will he make this the Summer of YEET?
Backstage interview with Lyra Valkyria.
Cathy Kelley is with The Morrigan, and says she is arguably the closest woman to Becky Lynch. How is The Man coping with everything? Lyra says Becky is disappointed, but Lyra knows Becky is at her best when people think she’s beat. Becky will take that loss to Liv, come back around, and use it to make herself even better. That is how winning is done. Real winning! Something Liv knows nothing about. So if you ask Lyra, we won’t have to “watch her” for every long at all. Becky has been an invaluable mentor for Lyra, helping her beat three members of Damage Control, make it to the finals of Queen of the Ring, so how is Lyra moving forward without Becky?
Lyra is sure she’s shown she can stand on her own two feet. And that’s the plan! Her next goal, after hearing Jey say he wants MITB, is that she’ll go for MITB! She will do anything to- IYO SKY ATTACKS! The Evil Genius fires off on Lyra, still furious over that loss to her in the tournament! She throws Lyra into the garage door, then throws rope on her! Iyo still rages on through the backstage area, will these two have to settle their score before either one moves on?
The New Day VS The Authors of Pain w/ The Final Testament!
Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods have stuck together through thick and thin, and they’re not about to change that. But will Akam & Rezar give them no choice when they write The Final Chapter on #KofiMania?
Raw returns as The Final Testament makes their entrance. The teams sort out and Woods runs up to SHOTUGN Rezar! Woods fires off hands on Rezar, climbs up in a corner and rains down fists! Rezar shoves Woods away but Woods mule kicks a leg! Woods headlocks, Rezar powers out but Woods ducks ‘n’ dodges, only for Rezar to CLOBBER him! Rezar rains down fists, but Woods kicks back. Rezar ELBOW DROPS, and he talks a lot of trash. Kross and the rest are pleased as Rezar drags Woods up. Tag to Akam, he runs and CLOBBERS Woods! Cover, TWO! Akam HAMMERS away on Woods, then drags him away.
Tag to Rezar, and Rezar stomps Woods down. Rezar drags Woods up, clamps on a neck wrench, but the fans rally with “NEW! DAY ROCKS!” Woods fights up, fires hands, but Rezar ROCKS Woods. Rezar scoops but Woods fights free! Woods ENZIGIRIS and Rezar staggers! Akam tags i n, he keeps Woods from Kofi and back suplexes. Woods lands out to SUPERKICK! Scarlett distracts the ref, Kross gets in Kofi’s face! Woods dodges Akam but no tag! Kross grins, Akam CLOBBERS Woods then DECKS Kofi! Akam hits Woods in the corner with a clothesline, then he tags in Rezar! They get Woods up, for WHAT A RUSH! Cover, AOP wins!
Winners: The Authors of Pain, by pinfall
Kofi hurries in to check on Woods, but the numbers game got the better of The New Day. Will The Final Testament put an end to The New Day one way or another?
Backstage interview with Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn.
Jackie catches up with the wicked witches and asks them what just happened. They just attacked the tag team champions, but why? Alba says the tag champs just wanna show up and hand out title shots, meanwhile these two don’t get the opportunities! Shayna & Zoey, #1 contenders because they beat “everybody,” except Alba & Isla. Isla points out that Clash at the Castle is in Scotland, yet no sign of these two on the card. That does not sit right with them. So they won’t wait around for chances, they’re gonna take ’em! And oh~, don’t Jade & Bianca look so pretty with those title belts? But those good looks are about to fade.
Isla blows a kiss goodbye and she leaves with Alba into the night. Will these two cast a spell that ends the StrongEST Duo’s reign? Or are they just running into the worst storm they’ve ever weathered?
Damian Priest VS Rey Mysterio!
There’s no love lost between The Punisher and the King of Lucha, but there might be some respect lost. Will Priest demolish Dirty Dom’s dad once and for all? Or will Rey rise to the occasion and get a win over El Campeon del Mundo?
Raw returns and Priest makes his entrance. The bell rings and the two circle. The fans rally as Rey gets cornered, but he dodges to KICK a leg! Rey runs, gets around Priest, then slides under him, but Priest BOOTS him down! Priest looms over Rey, smirks, and he watches Rey go to a corner. Priest runs up to BACK ELBOW, then he hits the BROKEN ARROW! Cover, ONE!! Rey is tougher than that, but Priest stalks Rey around the ring. Priest stands Rey up, but Rey fires body shots! Priest shoves Rey, Rey kicks back! Rey runs up to tilt-o-whirl RANA! Priest tumbles out of the ring, so Rey goes to the apron!
Rey ASAI MOONSAULTS and down goes Priest! The fans fire up and Rey gets Priest back in the ring. Rey RAMS into Priest, then ROCKS him. Rey slingshots, but into Priest’s arms! Priest snarls as he hits the FLATLINER! Rey sputters and Priest looms over him. Priest stalks Rey, drags him up, and ROCKS him with a right! Rey staggers to the corner, the fans rally up, but Priest storms over. Priest stomps a mudhole in, lets off as the ref counts 4, then soaks up the cheers and jeers. Rey stands, Priest stalks him again, and Raw goes to break.
Raw returns once again and Rey fights out of a chinlock! Priest CLUBS Rey, then has him in a corner. Priest whips corner to corner hard, and Rey staggers into a scoop and SIDEWALK SLAM! Cover, TWO! Priest is annoyed and he tells Rey he doesn’t wanna have to do it like this. But if Rey keeps getting up, Priest will put him down for good. Priest DECKS Rey, Rey flops out of the ring, and Priest tells him to stay down or else. The ring count climbs, Rey drags himself up with the apron skirt, and he gets back in at 8 of 10. Priest sighs, brings Rey up, and whips him to the corner hard! Another scoop, but Rey slips free!
Rey WHEEL KICKS Priest and Priest staggers! Priest blocks a kick but the ENZIGIRI hits! Rey KICKS and ROCKS Priest, whips, but Priest blocks! Priest snarls, whips hard, and Rey is in the corner. Priest runs in, but Rey ducks the splash! Priest hits post, Rey goes up and wheelbarrows, to victory roll Priest into buckles! The fans fire up as Priest staggers to his feet. Rey runs in, Priest puts him on the apron, then SUPERKICKS him down! The ref checks Rey while Priest steadies himself. Priest drags Rey up on the apron, says he’ll get Rey inside, and has a choke grip! But Rey fights the lift with a turn!
Rey GAMANGIRIS Priest away! The fans rally, the ring count starts again, but Rey hurries up the steel steps. Rey climbs the corner, and he SEATED SENTONS! Rey keeps moving, he ducks ‘n’ dodges and springboards to CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO! Rey won’t let that bother him, he RAMS Priest in a corner! Rey climbs up to rain down fists! The fans count along, and Rey gets TEN! Rey hops down, but then says he’ll do it again! Rey climbs, throws down more fists, but Priest stops him at four to run him corner to corner HARD! Rey gets stuck up in the ropes, but he ELBOWS Priest back! And tilt-o-whirls to DDT! Cover, TWO!
Priest is still in this but both men are down. The fans rally up, Rey rises and he dropkicks Priest onto ropes! Rey dials it up, but he has to duck ‘n’ dodge counter attacks! Rey springboards to QUEBRADA, but Priest catches Rey! Priest pops Rey around for a SNAKE EYES off buckles, and a LARIAT on the run! Cover, TWO!! Rey lives and even Priest has to smile. Priest said he respects Rey’s reputation and now he’s seeing it for himself. Priest gets Rey up, hoists him to the top rope, then CLUBS him on the back. Priest climbs up behind Rey, but Rey fires hands! The fans fire up as Priest steps back. But Priest BELL CLAPS Rey!
Priest then goes back up, and he turns around so he can bring Rey up into the crucifix! The fans freak out, but Rey fights free! Rey throws elbows, CLUBS Priest, then adjusts his own position. Rey leaps up and over to SUPER RANA!! Rey DROPKICKS Priest to ropes, and he dials it up! 619!! Priest falls, Rey DROPS THE DIME! Cover, TWO!! Priest survives and Rey is shocked! The fans can’t believe it, either, but then here comes Carlito! The fans boo, the ref reprimands, but then Dragon Lee YANKS Carlito down! Carlito kicks back, whips, but Dragon goes up and up and FLYING FOREARMS Carlito down!
Dragon gets his hands on Carlito, but then Finn & JD make the save! They mug Dragon, Rey is furious so he FLIES out onto them all! The fans fire up as Rey hurries back to the ring! Rey goes up, but Priest catches him first! SOUTH OF HEAVEN!! Cover, Priest wins!
Winner: Damian Priest, by pinfall
The Judgment Day still had to get involved, but a win is a win for El Campeon! But then MCINTYRE CLOBBERS PRIEST! The fans are torn as The Scottish Terminator drags Priest back up. McIntyre underhooks, for the FUTURE SHOCK!! And a kip up, too! McIntyre picks up the World Heavyweight Championship, the belt he only held for 5 minutes and 45 seconds at WrestleMania. McIntyre puts it aside, gives us the countdown, “THREE! TWO! ONE!” But Finn gets in so McIntyre LARIATS him down! Carlito runs in, to get a GLASGOW KISS HEADBUTT! JD leaps in, but into McIntyre’s arms! OVERHEAD SUPLEX!
McIntyre storms up on Priest and has him on the apron. McIntyre then clears off the desk! The fans fire up for that! Michael Cole & Pat McAfee move aside, but then Priest gets McIntyre! SOUTH OF HEAVEN through the table!! McIntyre again takes his eye off the ball and now he’s down in the wreckage! Priest stands over McIntyre, will The Punisher prove he’s far more than a paper champion?
My Thoughts:
Another great Raw, lots of fun with all the stories that blend together within The Judgment Day’s story. Liv made it official that she wants Dom, only to stick it to Rhea. Judgment Day stepping in to stop that is interesting because we’ve seen those Easter Egg moments of Finn and JD each talking with Liv. Judgment Day of course gets help from Carlito and then helps Carlito in return in their matches with LWO. I really hope Dragon Lee finally gets going on Raw, maybe this feud with Judgment Day helps with that. Great stuff with Braun helping out, but of course being pretty much 4v1 and Liv, too, it made sense they’d take Strowman down.
Really good stuff with McIntyre, too, but I really thought he was gonna stand tall to end the night. But then we got one more turnaround and Judgment Day stood tall. This isn’t the go-home yet, but I’m kinda hoping McIntyre finds a way to win when Liv causes The Judgment Day to split between Team Liv and Team Rhea. If any title changes hands at all at Clash at the Castle, it really needs to be the world title and McIntyre standing tall in the main event so Scotland can celebrate.
I did not think they’d give us the Women’s Tag Team title match tonight, but it was a great match, and it sure became clear why it happened tonight after Alba & Isla attacked. We’re getting Alba & Isla challenging for the tag titles in Scotland, same as Piper Niven challenging Bayley for the WWE Women’s Championship. This might be a rough night for the Scottish lasses, I don’t see Alba & Isla dethroning Jade & Bianca. As good as Alba & Isla are, they should’ve really gotten their chance at these tag titles before a team as strong as Bianca & Jade got them. Also very good win for Kiana here, but the real development is that Natty might end up Team Deville. Feels a little inconsistent with how Natty just got a win with Karmen on NXT but hey, Natty’s gotta do something for herself.
Great promo from Sheamus and a great match from Sheamus and Kaiser. Great win for Kaiser, with maybe a touch of controversy as maybe Sheamus’ hand was under ropes or something. But either way, this can extend things between Sheamus and Kaiser for more great matches like this. Good promo from Jey to declare for MITB, and good promo turned attack for Lyra and Iyo. I would think Lyra and Iyo could both get in on the ladder match, but especially Iyo since she was last year’s Miss MITB and can certainly do even more great stuff. And Jey would make a great Mr. MITB, especially if he can customize his briefcase to be blue and white with “YEET” all over.
Great promo from Ricochet and Dragunov, and great promo from Bron and Pearce, to build up the great match from Ricochet and Bron. Great win for Bron, but of course he wanted to add on after. And Dragunov going after Bron was of course the logical move, that is going to be an awesome match. And it feels like the winner of that will end up a contender to the Intercontinental Championship. Speaking of which, great promo stuff from Sami and the Alpha Academy. We are of course getting Sami VS Gable one more time at Clash at the Castle, and we got so close to Otis turning on Gable here. Maybe it finally happens at Clash and that ends Gable’s hopes of being Intercontinental Champion while Sami is still champ.
And honestly, some really good stuff with Final Testament and New Day. Good promo backstage before the match, and while I thought Kofi was taking the loss by getting beat down, they turned things around and made it Woods. I guess Kross is trying to make Kofi out to be selfish and unreliable so that Woods will willingly want to break away. If Final Testament just brutalized Kofi into being injured, Woods would resent and resist Kross’ argument. I don’t want New Day to call it quits after all this time, but at the same time, what more is there for them to do? Another tag title reign seems less likely with so many newer teams available, and Woods hasn’t had the singles accomplishments Kofi & Big E have, so this could be the way we get to Woods finally being Intercontinental Champion.
My Score: 8.9/10

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?

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 DESCENTÂ 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?

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.

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!

Darius fires body shots and forearms, but Keith ROUNDHOUSES him down again. Keith brings Darius up to whip, but then sends him back the other way for an ELBOW! Bill applauds but he might be the only one. Keith steps on Darius’ face, then has a cocky cover, TWO!
Keith references Jericho but that doesn’t finish it, so Keith clamps on a CAMEL CLUTCH! Darius endures, even as Keith CLAWS his face! The ref reprimands, Keith stops, and Darius fights up. Darius pries at the hold, but Collision goes to break.
Collision returns and Bill BODY BLOWS Darius down! The fans are torn as Bill stalks Darius. Bill drags Darius back by a leg but the fans continue to rally for Top Flight. Keith runs in around the way, but Dante SUPERKICKS Keith first! Darius lunges forward, hot tag to Dante! The fans fire up as Dante springboards, but Bill gets under. Dante comes back, but Bill LARIATS him down! Bill grins and soaks up cheers and jeers. Bill runs in at Dante to SPLASH! Then he runs at Darius to SPLASH! Back to Dante for a BOOT! Darius dodges the lariat, but not the BOSS MAN SLAM! The fans are torn as Bill talks trash on Bobby Lashley!
Bill soaks up the cheers and jeers while Keith has Dante in the corner. Bill runs up, but Dante slips free! The SPLASH takes out Keith! Dante HURDLES Bill!?

Bill hoists Dante up, SKYSCRAPER CHOKE SLAM! Cover, Bill & Keith win!
Winners: “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith, by pinfall
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. And while Claudio wants Cope’s head on Dynamite, this Collision will kick things off! Will Dax the Ax chop down the youngest member of Moxley’s crew? Or will The Decoder already figure Dax out?
The bell rings, the two circle, and the fans rally up. They tie up, break, then go again. They break again, fans chant “YUTA SUCKS!” and Dax smirks. Dax and Yuta circle, tie up, and Dax spins Yuta to wrench an arm. Yuta rolls, switches the wrench and has the wristlock. Dax rolls, spins, and he wrenches to then slip through and headlock fort the takeover! Dax pushes Yuta down to a cover, ONE, but Dax holds onto the headlock. Yuta powers Dax to a corner, the ref counts, and both men let go slowly. Yuta KNEES low! The fans boo and the ref reprimands, but Yuta CHOPS! Yuta talks trash, whips corner to corner, but Dax reverses.
Yuta comes back, but Dax scoops him to SLAM him! Yuta UP KICKS, then he scoops to SLAM! Dax UP KICKS, both men get up, and Dax headlocks for a takeover! Yuta headscissors, Dax kips free, and roles reverse as now Yuta headlocks for the takeover. Dax keeps his shoulders up, but Yuta grinds the hold. The fans rally for Dax, he fights up, and Dax powers up and out. Yuta runs Dax over, keeps on moving, then he ducks the boot! Dax scoops, Yuta slips free, and Yuta chicken wings!

There are fans chanting for Yuta?! Yuta puts Dax’s arm on the steps to STOMP it! Yuta then goes to a corner, pulls the covers off the crossbars, and he drags Dax through!
Yuta stands on Dax’s arm to dig it into the crossbar! The ref reprimands, then counts, but Yuta stops at 4, and he reminds the ref, “I have ’til FIVE!” The fans are torn as Yuta copies Danielson, then he drags Dax up to the very top. SUPER DUPER PLEX! Both men are down and Milwaukee fires up as Collision goes picture in picture.
A standing count starts, but Yuta crawls over to Dax at 4 of 10. Cover, TWO! Yuta is annoyed but he drags Dax into a top wristlock. Yuta stands on the arm, then STOMPS it!

Yuta SLAMS the arm off the steps, then he flexes while soaking up cheers and jeers. Dax goes into the ring, Yuta goes up top, and Yuta MISSILE DROPKICKS! Yuta kips up, grins, and then takes a bow. Yuta STOMPS the bad arm again, and Dax goes to another corner.
Yuta storms up to CLUB Dax, then he wraps the bad arm around the ropes! The ref counts, Yuta stops at 4, and then he wrenches Dax into a snapmare. Yuta drops a knee on the elbow! Then Yuta clamps on a cording hold, only for Dax to fight up. Yuta wrenches, but Dax ROCKS him! Dax CHOPS Yuta, then JABS, JABS, JABS, before he DECKS Yuta! Yuta gets up but Dax DECKS him again! Dax LARIATS Yuta up and out, then hurries after him. Dax counter punches Yuta, runs up, but Yuta dodges! Dax runs into the POST! Yuta hurries to THROW Dax over the barriers!

Yuta returns to the ring, soaks up the heat, then goes back outside. Dax rises, Yuta ROCKS him! Dax CHOPS, Yuta ROCKS, then Dax ROCKS Yuta again and again! Dax DECKS Yuta, then hops up an dover the barrier. Dax reels Yuta in, but Yuta fights the driver! The bad arm also holds Dax back, and then Yuta BACKDROPS free!

Dax drags Yuta to a corner, and now for some payback! Dax SLAMS Yuta’s leg into the POST! Yuta writhes, but Dax grabs the legs again!

Dax steps through but Yuta BOOTS him into the POST! Yuta hobbles his way over as Dax goes to the apron. Yuta climbs up top, but Dax CLUBS a leg! Yuta sits on the corner, and Dax climbs up!

Dax trips Yuta, ties up the legs, SHARPSHOOTER! Yuta endures while the fans fire up!
Yuta scrambles around and finds the ROPEBREAK! Dax holds until 4, and then shakes out the bad arm. Yuta talks with the ref, Dax runs up, and Dax HIP TOSSES, but Yuta uses that to arm-drag and SEATBELT!! YUTA WINS!
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 RANAS, then hurdles, rolls, and pops Blake up. Blake RANAS back, then kips up! Blake runs up, but Hologram goes up and over. They both handspring, and Blake shadows Hologram. Blake chest bumps Hologram, then wheelbarrows, but Hologram rolls through to then step over, bridge back, but Blake turns that around on Hologram! Hologram keeps Blake away with boots, then rolls him up, ONE! DROPKICKS cancel out, both men kip up, and the fans fire up!
Blake mockingly applauds, but the fans rally behind Hologram. Blake offers a handshake, but then he SLAPS Hologram! The fans boo, Blake talks trash, and then Blake whips. Hologram handsprings, rolls, and SOBATS, KICKS, and CHOPS! The fans fire up as Blake flops back! Hologram builds speed, but Blake is up! Blake TOSSES Hologram out, then he builds speed. But Hologram ducks the slide! Blake runs up, Hologram sends Blake up to the apron! Blake mule kicks, but Hologram avoids the Quebrada! Hologram SUPERKICKS, then he goes to the apron! Blake avoids the leap, Hologram comes back, but Blake sends him into steel steps!
The fans boo while Hologram is down, but Collision goes to picture in picture.
Lee applauds Blake and Blake rolls into the ring. Blake distracts the ref so that Lee can stomp away on Hologram! Big Shotty gets away with that, and Blake waits on Hologram. Hologram rises, Blake builds speed, FOSBURY TOPE! Blake offers high-fives to the fans, but he leaves them all hanging. Blake drags Hologram up, puts him in the ring, then he stomps Hologram. Blake brings Hologram up, and he pulls at the mask! The ref reprimands, but Hologram KICKS Blake from below! Blake storms up to stomp Hologram again! Blake drags Hologram onto the ropes, CHOKES him, but stops as the ref counts.
Blake runs to STRADDLE ATTACK Hologram! Blake drags Hologram back up but Collision goes to break.
Collision returns and Blake has Hologram down with a motorcycle stretch. Hologram fights up as the fans rally, but Blake spins Hologram to keep the hold. But Hologram flips through, reels Blake in, NORTHERN LIGHTS! Bridging cover, TWO! Things speed up, and Hologram SHOTGUNS Blake first! Blake bails out, the fans fire up, and Hologram builds speed to DIVE! Lee takes the hit for Blake! The fans fire up, Hologram hurries to find Blake, but Blake kicks low! Blake drags Hologram up onto the barriers?! But Hologram fires body shots! And he RANAS Blake to the floor! Blake narrowly avoids hitting the steel steps and the fans fire 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! Blake slaps Hologram around, eggs him on, and then puts some stank on the- HEEL KICK from Hologram! Hologram fires up, he blocks Blake’s kick, but Blake SUPERKICKS from the other side! Blake whips, Hologram reverses, Blake rolls off the back, and he shoves Hologram to then SNAP POWERSLAM!
Blake somersaults to go to the ropes, LIONSAULT, but he has to bail out! Blake keeps running, Hologram gets him for a SPANISH FLY! Hologram fires up, torture racks Blake, but Blake slips free! Blake SWATS a lariat, ELBOWS Hologram, BODY BLOWS and BACKHANDS! SLING-DOG! Blake fires up, the fans boo, but Blake handsprings, into the torture rack! Airplane spin and PORTAL BOMB!! Cover, HOLOGRAM WINS!
Winner: Hologram, by pinfall
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! And she SUPERKICKS Hayter down! Hayter staggers up, ducks the heel kick, and she shoves Billie for a SPINEBUSTER! Hayter then turns Billie over, HALF CRAB! Billie endures, reaches out for ropes, but Hayter sits deep on the hold! Billie reaches out, grits her teeth, and Collision returns to single picture.
Hayter tells Billie to just give up, but Billie refuses! The fans rally harder, and Billie powers up! Billie claws and crawls, to the ROPEBREAK! The ref counts, and Hayter lets go in frustration. Hayter runs, but Billie DUMPS her to the apron! Hayter swings, Billie ducks it to sweep the legs! SUPERKICK and Hayter goes to the floor! Billie builds speed and DIVES! Down goes Hayter at the ramp! Billie rises, the fans fire up, and Billie drags Hayter up and into the ring. Billie hurries up the corner while Hayter is down, SWANTON BOMB! Cover, TWO! Hayter stays in this and Billie is seeing what it is to be a former world champion.
Billie drags Hayter up, reels her in, and suplexes, only for Hayter to slip free! The fans duel while Hayter fireman’s carries, but Billie slips free to throw her down! Hayter gets up, DOUBLE FOREARMS from both women connect! DOUBLE ROUNDHOUSES connect, too! And then Hater SHOTGUNS Billie into a corner! The fans rally up harder while both women are down! Billie drags herself up with the ropes, Hayter rises at center. Hayter powers up, kisses the bicep, but Billie ducks the lariat to suplex! GHOSTBUSTER!! Cover, TWO!! Hayter survives and Billie is shocked! Billie seethes, and she storms up on Hayter!
Billie Electric Chair Lifts Hayter, but Hayter fires hands! Hayter shoves Billie away, fireman’s carries, and USHIGOROSHI! Hayter runs, and SLIDING HAYTERADE!! Cover, TWO!! Billie survives and now Hayter is frustrated! Hayter is seeing why Billie is the first and former ROH Women’s TV Champion. Hayter hauls Billie up, but Billie ducks the lariat! SNAP HALF ‘N’ HALF! Billie powers up, runs, but Hayter follows to LARIAT at the ropes! Hayter runs, Billie follows, and Billie BOOTS Hayter at the ropes! Billie runs, but Hayter SUPERKICKS! And ENZIGIRIS! Billie winds up, but Hayter gets under! GERMAN SUPLEX!! Cover, TWO!!
The fans are thunderous while Hayter is beside herself. Hayter grits her teeth and vows to end it! Hayter throws off the armbands, drags Billie up to wind up and- NO, Billie ducks the lariat to cravat and KNEE SMASH, then HEEL KICK! Billie fires up, winds up, but Hayter ducks that shot! 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.
