PLAY BY PLAY
Cody Rhodes is seething backstage.
The American Nightmare has arrived, but he is in no mood after what AJ Styles did to him last week. Will Cody get some answers before the night’s over?
The Bloodline is here!
Solo Sikoa leads the way for Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa & Paul Heyman as they all head to the ring. Tonight is to be a special night for The Bloodline, but Heyman’s the only one that looks unhappy about it. The Wise Man gets a mic for himself and for Solo, but the fans boo all the same. Solo tells Heyman to go first, and he introduces himself. “As the Wise Man to the Bloodline, it is within my scope of services that at all time, I must set the record straight.” The fans boo but Heyman says that until Roman Reigns comes back… Solo Sikoa sits at the Head of the Table. The fans boo but Solo revels in Heyman’s words.
The fans chant “We Want Roman!” and that annoys Solo. Heyman takes a breath and says with said position that Solo once again ups the ante in the name of family honor. Solo has declared this a “Double Proclamation.” Heyman calls to our attention the man to his right, already anointed by Solo as a fully fledged member of The Bloodline. But from this moment forward, he won’t just be Tama Tonga. He will also be known as “The Right Hand Man.” The fans boo, that cuts out Jimmy Uso! Heyman then calls our attention to the gent- er, man on his left. History is being made in front of our very eyes, but the fans chant “We Want Roman!”
Heyman says from this moment on, the story of The Bloodline will never be complete if you don’t include the fact that a fully fledged member of The Bloodline stands before you in the form of the INFAMOUS Tonga Loa. Solo hugs Loa and makes the acceptance into the fold official. Heyman says with that, Louisville, Kentucky, thank you and goodnight. But then Solo says hold on there, Wise Man. Isn’t he forgetting something? Heyman says Right Hand Man, #InfamousLoa, he doesn’t think he’s missing anything. The fans chant “SOLO SUCKS! SOLO SUCKS!” But Solo says Heyman should thank Tama & Loa for saving him from Kevin Owens.
Heyman says yes, of course. He thanks “Infamous” Loa for saving him from Kevin Owens last week, and he thanks Tama for saving him. Tama leans in a bit, and Heyman corrects himself: Thank you, “Right Hand Man,” for saving him. Tama says they could’ve let Kevin kill Heyman, but they saved him, “by orders of The Tribal Chief.” Heyman then thanks the family. He got here very early today to do what a Wise Man does, doing Wise Man things, and all he has been hearing since he arrived is that Kevin Owens is looking for a piece of any and every single member of The Bloodline. The fans like the sound of that!
And here comes Kevin! The fans fire up as Solo sees Kevin storming out here, wrapping his hands with fresh tape! Solo dares Kevin to bring it, even though he’s standing behind The Guerillas of Destiny as he does. Kevin still rushes in, he TACKLES Tama, but Loa drags him up! Kevin ROCKS Loa, ROCKS Tama, then fires off on Solo! The Guerillas pounce on Kevin, it’s a mugging 3v1! The fans boo but here come The Street Profits! Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins still have a score to settle after last week! Now it’s 3v3! Solo bumps Ford off buckles, The Guerillas mug Dawkins, but they forgot about Kevin! Kevin has a chair!
Kevin SMACKS Solo, JAMS then SMACKS Loa, but Tama CLUBS Kevin! So Dawkins ROCKS Tama, Ford mule kicks, and Kevin SMACKS Tama! The Bloodline bails out and is in retreat! Solo has the Guerillas stand down, what will it take for this to be settled?
The Bloodline regroups backstage.
Heyman is heading for the exit but Solo asks him where he’s going. Is Heyman trying to leave? N-No…! Solo says Heyman better get them a Six Man Tag match tonight! Those fools out there jumped The Bloodline! If Heyman doesn’t get this job done, the main event in their locker room, Heyman VS Tama! Heyman says okay, he’ll go call Aldis. He likes the Six Man Tag idea, too. Wise choice, Wise Man. We get some QR code chaos here, but will it be even more chaotic in tonight’s main event?
Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair VS Indi Hartwell & Candice LeRae!
The StrongEST Duo handled things in Saudi Arabia against #IndiWrestling & The Poison Pixie, but then Indi had to clap back about Bianca hurting Candice. Jade says that was payback, and is willing to give another receipt here tonight. Will Jade & Bianca clear out this problem so they can focus on what Raw is brewing? Or will the tag champs feel the walls closing in?
The teams sort out, Indi starts against Bianca, and the fans rally up. But wait, speaking of Raw, Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn are here! They sneak in from the crowd and distract Bianca, allowing Indi to CLOBBER her! Indi stomps Bianca, whips her to the corner, then stomps away. Tag to Candice, she brings Bianca around but Bianca blocks the suplex! Bianca suplexes, Candice cradle counters, TWO! Wait, now Zoey Stark & Shayna Baszler appear from the ramp side! Candice puts Bianca in a corner, whips corner to corner, but Bianca stops herself to ELBOW Candice back! Bianca goes up, backflips up and over, then runs in to RAM Candice!
Bianca reels Candice in to suplex and hold her up! The fans fire up and then Bianca SLAMS Candice down! Bianca kips up, taunts Shayna & Zoey, then HANDSPRING MOONSAULTS! Cover, TWO! Candice stays in this but Bianca stays cool. Bianca scoops Candice, but Candice slips free! Candice pulls the braid then tags Indi! Bianca DECKS Candice but Indi CLOBBERS Bianca again! Indi calls to Candice for teamwork, and Candice rolls to WHEELBARROW SPLASH COMBO! Indi flexes and mocks Jade while SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns and Candice has a HALF CRAB, but Bianca powers out of it! Candice runs up but into a BACKBREAKER! All the contenders on the outside are annoyed, but Indi tags in. Indi CLOBBERS Bianca a third time, then she whips Bianca to the corner. Indi runs up but into a BOOT! Bianca ELBOWS Candice down, then hurries past Indi, only for Indi to reel her in! Bianca slips out of the back suplex, dodges Indi, hot tag to Jade! Jade jumps in to rally on Indi! Then Candice gets in, Jade scoops and hits a BACKBREAKER! Jade then gets Indi for a wrench and snap suplex! Jade kips up and the fans fire up!
Jade runs in to SPLASH Indi, then she runs up on Candice. Jade scoops, trophy lifts, then THROWS Candice at Indi! They both go down, and Jade drags Indi up! Jade whips to then FLAPJACK and SUPERKICK! Cover, Candice breaks it! Bianca storms in but gets a JAWBREAKER! Candice whips but Bianca reverses to TOSS Candice! Indi waistlocks, but Bianca runs tot he corner to HOTSHOT Indi! Jade wheelbarrows, Bianca DDTS then BOOST into the STORM PLEX! Cover, Jade & Bianca win!
Winners: Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill, by pinfall
Shayna & Zoey are annoyed, Alba & Isla are unimpressed. And then they all get in to attack! It’s like Raw all over again! The fans boo as the contenders mug the champs 4v2, then toss the champs out! Shayna & Zoey focus on Jade, and send her into steel steps! Alba & Isla have Bianca, and the RAM her into barriers! But then the pairs each take one belt. And so now they all brawl! The fans boo all the same, until Jade gets in! Jade BOOTS Shayna! Bianca TOSSES Zoey, tot hen SPINEBUSTER! Jade blocks a superkick. Bianca blocks a boot! They each get one up, JADED and KISS OF DEATH!
The fans are thunderous as the champs stand tall over all! But will even The StrongEST struggle when it’s about the numbers game?
Cody is still seething.
He paces as he waits for AJ Styles to arrive, but it’s Nick Aldis that walks over first. The SmackDown GM knows how Cody is feeling. Aldis got played, too. But hey, it is not in the company’s best interest for these two to be fighting in the loading dock because someone could get seriously hurt. Cody says someone will get hurt, and it won’t be Cody. Aldis wants Cody not to do this, but Cody says with all due respect, Aldis should know better than anyone. This is about Cody and Styles. Aldis nods and takes his leave. Will Cody get his phenomenal revenge on his terms?
Backstage interview with Apollo Crews.
Sarah Schreiber is with the former Intercontinental & US Champion as he prepares for his match with Angel Garza. Crews says tonight, Garza finds out- OH NO! Legado attacks Crews! Angel & Humberto THROW Crews into railing, and then Santos tells him to watch who he messes with. Referees, security and Aldis hurry in, and Crews needs medical! Aldis is fuming, but then LA Knight steps in and asks, “Where is he?” Aldis gets spooked, calms down, and says if Knight hasn’t noticed, he’s got a lot on his plate after losing a match tonight. Knight doesn’t care, where is he? Oh, surprise, surprise, Logan Paul’s not here again!
It is SmackDown, isn’t it? What else could he be doing? Aldis shows Logan Paul’s social media to Knight, and Knight is upset. Logan would rather play Tetris than be here? Knight’s good at Tetris! Logan could’ve shown up here, played a round with Knight. If you hit the buttons enough, you can fit Knight’s foot right up Logan’s ass! But then Carmelo Hayes walks in and says Knight is still just talking, talking, talking. And he’s upset about a guy who’s not even here. But let’s talk about someone who is here. And that Melo has been cooking Knight the last three weeks. Knight says Melo brings up a good point. Enough talk. There’s an opening for a match now, right?
Well, Knight wonders what they can do about that. Oh, well, he sees two guys here who could maybe fit into that spot. Yeah, let’s fill that spot! Aldis is picking up what Knight is putting down! Tonight, Carmelo Hayes VS LA Knight, 1v1! How about that? Melo says fine, he’ll see Knight out there. Aldis says Melo has a lot to learn, and Knight says YEAH! Will the Mega Star teach H1M a thing or two about respect?
Grayson Waller w/ Austin Theory VS Johnny Gargano w/ Tommaso Ciampa!
The Aussie Icon got caught putting his foot in his mouth saying his own tag team partner would be nothing without him. However, Johnny Wrestling would like to point out, the same could be said about Waller if not for Gargano. Will Johnny prove that when it comes to humbling the haters, you gotta Do It Yourself? Or will he suffer from the Grayson Waller Effect?
SmackDown returns and Waller makes his entrance, Theory by his side. The bell rings and Gargano fires off on Waller! The ref counts as Gargano stomps away in the corner and Gargano lets off. But then Waller sucker punches him! Waller cravats, throws knees in, then KNEES hard as he lets off. But Gargano ducks the leg lariat to roll Waller up, SCHOOLBOY KICK! Gargano then CHOPS Waller in a corner, but Waller kicks back. Gargano CHOPS again! And CHOPS again! And CHOPS again! The fans “WOO~” with every CHOP, then Gargano lets off as the ref counts. Gargano storms back up and he wrenches to whip.
Waller reverses, but Gargano ducks ‘n’ dodges. Gargano tilt=o-whirls, but Waller blocks that to hit a BACKBREAKER! Theory applauds, the fans boo, but Waller drags Gargano up to fireman’s carry. WIDOW- RANA! Gargano turns things around, Waller goes to the apron. Gargano storms over, Waller HOTSHOTS him! Waller then runs to somersault in, but Gargano turns stunner into back suplex! Gargano aims, PLANCHA, but Waller dodges! Waller comes back to slide, but Gargano dodges! Gargano ELBOWS Waller, cravats, and Gargano uses the apron for SLICED BREAD! A rough landing for both men, and SmackDown goes to break!
SmackDown returns as Waller has the HALF CRAB! Gargano endures as the fans rally behind him, and he turns over to kick at Waller with the free leg! Waller tries to turn things back over but Gargano just kicks and kicks and kicks! Waller lets go, but then Gargano avoids the elbow drop! Gargano fires body shots and haymakers, then whips. Waller reverses but Gargano CLOBBERS him! And LARIATS! And ENZIGIRIS! Waller flops back and Gargano runs up, but Waller TOSSES Gargano to the apron. Waller runs up but into the SLINGSHOT SPEAR! Cover, TWO! Waller stays in this but Gargano stays on him with a suplex.
The bad back stops the suplex, and Waller ROLLING ELBOWS! Waller Electric Chair Lifts, but Gargano fights free! Waller makes it a TOWERING back suplex! Then Waller fireman’s carries for the WIDOWMAKER! Cover, TWO! The fans rally as Gargano stays in this. Waller stomps Gargano, talks smack, but the fans continue to cheer on “JOHNNY WRESTLING!” Waller drags Gargano up, but Gargano ROCKS him! Waller hits back, Gargano hits again! They go back and forth, faster and faster, then Gargano fires boxing elbows! Waller mule kicks and AX KICKS, but Gargano SUPERKICKS and BUZZSAWS!
Gargano runs up, but into a JUMP KNEE! Waller and Gargano go to corners, then Waller runs in. Gargano avoids the splash, comes back but Waller pops him up! Alabama Lift, but Gargano swings to a DESTROYER! Both men are down, but Waller flops out of the ring! Gargano is frustrated, but he builds speed. Gargano DIVES, but Waller pulls Theory into the way! Then Waller RAMS Gargano into the apron, then POSTS him! Waller puts Gargano in, aims, ROLLING UNPRETTIER!! Cover, Waller wins!
Winner: Grayson Waller, by pinfall
Theory sits up, checking his chin. The Grayson Waller Effect seems to have side effects, but it still pulls out the win. A-Town Down Under is 1-1 with DIY, will the titles have to be the tiebreaker?
Aldis returns to Cody Rhodes.
Aldis has security, and says AJ Styles has just arrived. This is just a precaution so nothing gets out of hand. Everyone just relax. Cody doesn’t seem to relax much at all, but will Styles have nothing to worry about with Aldis and the guards standing in the way?
SmackDown returns and…
Cody continues to pace while Aldis says think about being professional. There’s a lot going on, Aldis knows that, but that’s not how they should handle this. But then Styles taunts Cody from his SUV! The Good Brothers are also there as Cody storms up but is held back by guards. Styles laughs at Cody, so Cody storms off, down to gorilla! The fans fire up as they know he’s heading right to the stage! The American Nightmare storms out to the ring, no need for his theme song right now! Cody grabs a mic to shout, “AJ STYLES! Get your ass to this ring, RIGHT NOW! We don’t need security, AJ, let’s do this here and now!”
The Phenomenal One’s music does hit, and Styles does make his way out, Gallows & Anderson still with him. But then the security guards hurry out to be a barrier. Styles & The Good Brothers chuckle while Aldis tries to reason with Cody. Styles then taunts Cody, “You think I care what you want? Do you think I care what you want?! What you want is irrelevant to me! Look at ya! You want to fight so bad, you want to fight me so bad! I’ll tell you what, Cody. Give me what I want.” The fans chant “AJ SUCKS! AJ SUCKS!” but Styles says he wants a WWE Championship match at Clash at the Castle! THAT is what he wants!
Cody gets his mic back and says oh, of course. No fight now, a fight at Clash! A shot at the title! YES, that is what Styles wants! Then 100%, Styles has got it! BUT! This won’t just be a regular match, and Cody won’t just beat Styles. Cody will make Styles what he should’ve said last week: I QUIT!! The fans are all fired up as Cody really raises the stakes! An I Quit match for the title? Aldis says if that’s what they both want, then it’s official! Styles is a bit upset by that but Cody storms out to fight through the guards! He TOSSES one guy into steel steps! Cody gets through another layer, TOSSES one guy into the ring, then LEAPS at Styles!
The rest of the guards keep Cody back while Styles laughs at the furious champion. Then Styles CLOBBERS the entire cluster! The OC gets outta there, will Styles be leaving Glasgow as the Phenomenal NEW WWE Champion? Or will Cody make him pay for everything he’s done in the most brutal way possible?
Jade & Bianca leave Aldis’ office.
Byron Saxton is there to ask the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions what their meeting with the GM was about. Bianca says they were having a long conversation with Aldis, because with all these teams coming after them, the champs were curious what their Clash at the Castle match would be. Jade says the champs agreed to a Tag Team Triple Threat! Bianca & Jade VS Shayna & Zoey VS Alba & Isla. It’s crazy that they think two teams can take them down. “Who gonna stop us? Who gonna stop us?” Jade & Bianca head out, will they prove they are truly the StrongEST Duo?
Carmelo Hayes VS LA Knight!
Melo Don’t Miss, and that’s true. He doesn’t miss a chance to step in it when no one was even talking to him. But will he be able to dunk on the Mega Star? Or will this boy from Boston learn not to mess with LA?
The bell rings and the fans fire up behind Knight. Melo talks trash, tells him the fans don’t matter, and the two circle. Melo dodges a haymaker to fire away on Knight! Melo fires off at the ropes, the ref has him back down, and then Melo storms back up. Melo pie faces Knight, so Knight ROCKS Melo with haymaker after haymaker! Melo kicks low, whips corner to corner, but Knight comes right back to LARIAT Melo! The fans fire up, Knight TOSSES Melo up and out, then storms over. Melo trips Knight, drags him out, but Knight ROCKS Melo! Knight brings Melo to the desk to SMACK him off it! “YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!”
Knight finally lets off as he hears the ring count climb, but Melo RAMS Knight into the apron! Melo snarls, brings Knight in and whips, but Knight stops from hitting the desk! Melo refreshes the ring count, only for Knight to back drop Melo onto the desk! Melo bounces a bit, then Knight CLUBS away on him! Knight shoves Melo off the desk, the fans fire up with him, and SmackDown goes to break!
SmackDown returns as Knight fights out of a chinlock. Knight fires hands, “YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!” Knight whips, Melo springboards and FLYING LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Knight is still in this but Melo stays cool. Melo mocks Knight spelling it out, then he goes up the corner. Knight rises, Melo talks some smack, but Knight trips Melo up! Shot denied, Knight fires haymakers again! “YEAH! YEAH!” Knight climbs up, stands Melo up, and the fans fire up. Melo blocks the superplex, sends Knight down, then avoids Knight’s return! But Knight SLINGSHOTS Melo back in! Only for Melo to roll through and to his feet!
Knight runs up to LARIAT Melo! Knight then FLAPJACKS Melo, and stomps away in a corner! “YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!” The ref counts, Knight lets off at 4 to go corner to corner, KNEE! The fans fire up again and Knight brings Melo up. Knight whips, scoops, but Melo slips free! Melo SUPERKICKS Knight, runs up, tilt-o-whirl for LA MYSTICA! Cover, TWO! Knight survives and Melo is frustrated. The fans continue to rally for Knight but Melo talks smack. Melo drags Knight up, CHOPS him, and he KICKS Knight to ropes. Melo fires off forearms to put Knight in a corner, then CHOPS again! Knight CHOPS Melo down!
Knight gets Melo up, scoops, and hits that SLAM! Then he runs to ELBOW FLOP as Melo moves! The two rise up, Knight hurries but Melo cradles! TWO!! Knight escapes, Melo fires hands! Knight hits back! They go back and forth, and Knight gets the edge, “YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!” Knight whips, scoops, POWERSLAM! ELBOW DROP! The fans fire up and Knight waits on Melo. Melo slowly rises, Knight cravats, but Melo rolls Knight up! With tights!TWO and Knight has Melo stuck in a package! KNIGHT WINS!
Winner: LA Knight, by pinfall
Melo can’t believe it, but he’s the one who got dunked on! Knight gets a headset from commentary to tell Logan Paul that he can play video games all he wants. Knight wants to play a game. If Logan doesn’t wanna go to SmackDown, Knight will bring SmackDown to Logan! YEAH! Will The Maverick learn just whose game this is?
Tiffany Stratton finds Nia Jax backstage.
Tiffy tells The Queen that second to herself, Nia was Tiffy’s top choice to win the tournament. And knowing there are people gunning for Nia, just know Tiff has her back. The Queen of the Ring, and the Princess of the Ring! No one can stop them! Just think about it, okay? Tootles. Tiff heads out, Nia rolls her eyes, but then turns around into Mia Yim. Nia says “You again? Why don’t you take a page out of AJ Styles’ book and actually retire.” But then Michin SPLASHES Nia with a drink! So Nia TOSSES Mia over a table! They brawl, knock the table over, and security rushes in! Mia says keep Styles’ name out your mouth!!
The Head Baddie In Charge may want after The Queen, but she’s also gunning for the NXT Women’s North American Championship this Sunday. Will Mia return to SmackDown with gold to rival Nia’s crown?
Bayley is here!
Louisville fires up for The Role Model as she makes her way to the ring. Bayley knows Piper Niven is coming for her WWE Women’s Championship at Clash at the Castle, what will she have to say about that challenge? We find out, after the break.
SmackDown returns and Bayley has the mic. She knows we saw the graphic. Next week, Clash at the Castle, Bayley steps into unfamiliar territory when she faces Piper Niven 1v1 for the very first time! That’s insane given how long Bayley’s been here, but- Oh, here comes Piper & Chelsea. The Hot Mess tells Bayley, “You talk such a big game for being such a big ol’ loser!” Chelsea laughs but the fans boo. Chelsea says the only reason they’re booing is because they’re losers, too! But see, Bayley, you were a loser in Saudi Arabia, you were a loser last week, and don’t forget, you had a loser of a tag team partner in glowy Naomi!
And Bayley will be a loser yet again when “Lil’ Miss P” ends Bayley and they both become the NEW WWE Women’s Champion! Chelsea laughs, Bayley mocks the laugh, and brings up how Bayley beat Chelsea pretty easily. But hey, she relates to the mouthpiece thing. Chelsea wants to speak for someone and stand behind someone when that someone is big and strong. But understand something, Chelsea. Piper doesn’t need Chelsea, and unlike Chelsea, Bayley respects Piper. Bayley has watched Piper for a long time. It was during the Mae Young Classic that Bayley sat front row and watched Piper, and immediately Bayley appreciated what Piper could do.
Bayley immediately had respect for who Piper is, so Bayley knows that when they take this to Piper’s home country, this is more than just a title match. Bayley knows what it is to wrestle in front of friends, family and the people you came up in the business with. That means everything. Bayley has been there before, and she has lost in front of everyone she’s loved. So as much respect as Bayley has for Piper, Piper could’ve just asked. But no, she had to jump Bayley from behind, bring her little puppy along, so guess what? Next week, in Piper’s home country, Bayley will have some damn good fun beating Piper!
Chelsea starts barking but Piper takes the mic. Piper tells Bayley don’t worry. She embarrassed Bayley enough last week. And she’s saving beating the brakes off her for next week, in front of her home country. Piper steps into the ring as she says she’s so glad Bayley has this respect for her and her journey. And maybe Piper would take this all to heart, if for how Bayley knows nothing about her journey! The Mae Young Classic was back in 2017. Idiots say what. “WHAT?” Piper says she has been digging and clawing her way out of those trenches, and putting Scottish wrestling on the map since 2008!
So while Bayley walked into a readymade scene, dishing out hugs and high fives, Piper was being a trailblazer! She was making a name for herself, winning titles all over the UK, Europe and even Japan! Bayley, Piper was already a world champion before she even stepped through WWE’s doors. And if Bayley had any idea just how dangerous Piper really was, Bayley wouldn’t dare stand so close. Respect her all you like, it won’t stop Piper from drilling your head into the mat and taking the title off you! But Piper hopes that “respect” Bayley has makes it a little less painful when Bayley’s looking up at the lights, Piper standing over her the NEW WWE Women’s Champion!
Chelsea applauds but the fans boo. Bayley holds up the belt, but will she still be holding onto it after running into this force of nature?
Logan Paul speaks.
“I can’t even believe I have to waste my time with this, but I heard there was a WWE ‘Mega Star’ who’s never won a title that’s looking for me. LA Knight, why don’t you take off those teeny sunglasses and I dunno, take a look around, buddy. I ain’t there! I needed an actual challenge, unlike meeting you, so I came to Los Angeles, your turf, because tomorrow, I’m competing in the Tetris Championships. And I’m coming home with another belt. Something you’re unfamiliar with. And I know you’re stupid, so I’mma make this simple for you, stupid.
“I’m Logan Paul, I compete with the best int he world, real champions. You have done nothing to merit my attention. You are a walking catchphrase in a denim vest, you hillbilly looking ass Aladdin. So let me tell you something, bro. There’s levels to this, and you’re not on mine. So go back to the midcard where you belong. WiTh EvErYbOdY sAyInG~, LO-GAN PAUL, YEAH!” The Maverick throws shade back at LA Knight, but will he come to regret that?
Piper & Chelsea regroup backstage.
Piper is already planning the celebration for after Clash, and Chelsea says they can do pink crop tops, champagne fountain, confetti cannons… Oh, there’s Aldis! He’s finishing a talk with Naomi, and they both notice Chelsea. Naomi heard what The Hot Mess had to say, so fair warning: Keep her name out your mouth! Chelsea says, “Ew, Naomi. Anyways, Nick-” Naomi stops Chelsea there by throwing “ew” back at her! What’s ew is gonna be when they have to pull Naomi back off Chelsea because- Aldis stops the arguing, and says it has been a day to say the least. So he has no time for this. How about this? What about a match next week on SmackDown in Glasgow?
That’s perfect for Chelsea. Naomi says same, and she leaves first. Piper says they need an ice sculpture, get on it. Piper & Chelsea are getting ahead of themselves, but will they #FeelTheGlow next Friday?
Six Man Tag: The Bloodline VS Kevin Owens & The Street Profits!
Solo Sikoa officially welcomed the Guerillas of Destiny to the family, only for The Prizefighter to show up and start swinging! Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford again back Kevin up, will they all #JustKeepFighting until they’ve humbled the interim Head of the Table?
SmackDown returns as The Bloodline makes their entrance. The teams sort out and Dawkins starts with Tama. The bell rings, Tama rushes up but Dawkins dodges! Dawkins JABS, JABS, JABS and JABS! The fans fire up, Dawkins whips, but Tama reverses. Dawkins ducks ‘n’ dodges, then hurdles, then FLYING UPPERCUTS! The fans fire up and Dawkins CYCLONE SPLASHES in a corner! Then ENZIGIRIS! Tag to Ford, they whip Tama to run him over! Ford dares Solo to get in, then he fires off on Tama. Ford ROCKS Tama, RAMS into him again and again, then lets off, before he RAMS in again and again!
Tama CLUBS away on Ford, turns things around and he RAMS into Ford again and again! The ref counts, Tama lets off and he tags in Loa. The Guerillas DOUBLE HEADBUTT, then Loa fires off forearms in the corner. The ref counts, Loa lets off to scoop and SLAM! Tag to Tama and he slingshot SENTONS! Tama stalks Ford, ROCKS Ford, then whips corner to corner. Ford goes up and over, cartwheels and handsprings, then he LARIATS Tama down! The fans fire up as Ford drags Tama up. Tama shoves Ford, Ford ELBOWS back, then he swings on the Bloodline. Tama runs up, Ford DUMPS him out but Solo tags in!
Solo attacks Ford, SMACKS him off the apron again and again, then POSTS Ford! Solo soaks up the heat while SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns again and Solo has Ford in a shoulder claw. Ford fights up to fight free, but Solo keeps him from his corner! Ford throws more hands, but Solo still holds on! Solo whips and SAMOAN DROPS! Cover, TWO! Ford stays in this and Kevin fires the fans up for him! But solo stomps Ford in a corner, goes corner to corner, and HIP ATTACKS! The fans boo but Solo soaks up the heat. Tag to Tama, he storms over, and Tama drags Ford up from the apron. Tama DECKS Ford, then brings him in to UPPERCUT! Tama scoops to SLAM Ford, then sits him up to run and SLIDING LARIAT! Tama sits Ford up, to run and SLIDING LARIAT again! Cover, TWO!
The fans continue to rally up for Ford, but Tama CLUBS away on Ford’s chest! Tama clamps on a chinlock but Ford fights up. Tama CLUBS Ford down, runs again, but Ford avoids the sliding lariat! Tama tumbles all the way out of the ring! The fans are thunderous as Ford flounders over, Tama hurries in to CLOBBER Dawkins! Tama then gets Ford up, back suplex! Ford lands out and ENZIGIRIS! Ford and Tama are both down and the fans are thunderous again! Ford and Tama crawl, hot tags to Kevin and Solo! Kevin dodges Solo to BLAST Loa, then he fires off on Solo with haymakers! Kevin stomps a mudhole into Solo, and the fans are going crazy!
Kevin runs corner to corner, CANNONBALL! Kevin goes up top, SWANTON BOMB! Cover, TWO! Solo survives but the fans are still hot as Kevin watches him. Solo rises, Kevin kicks low! STUN- NO, Solo powers out to SUPERKICK! Kevin SU PERKICKS! Solo LARIATS Kevin down! Solo roars, the fans boo, but Solo has that thumb ready! He stands Kevin up to SAMOAN- NO, Kevin ducks the spike to STUNNER!! Cover, Tama & Loa drag Kevin out! The Guerillas mug Kevin, send him into barriers, then mug him more! But then Dawkins POUNCES Loa! Tama fires off on Dawkins, Kevin goes after him! Those four are the corner, Ford FLIES out onto them all!!
The fans are electric as Ford rises, but Solo SMACKS him with a chair!!
Winners: Kevin Owens & The Street Profits, by disqualifications
Dawkins CLOBBERS Solo for that chair shot, then puts him in the ring! Dawkins fires fast hands from all sides, but Loa gets in to CLOBBER Dawkins! Loa beats down on Dawkins, the fans boo, but Solo has Loa let off. SAMOAN SPIKE!! The fans want “RANDY! RANDY!” to return but is The Viper in any shape for that? Ford returns but the Guerillas attack! They get Ford up, Solo grins then runs, to SPEAR!! A direct reference, and perhaps message, to THE Tribal Chief. But Kevin is still fighting! Tama jumps on, Loa throws hands, and then so does Solo! Kevin is mugged 3v1, and then Solo says bring him over to the desk!
Commentary is told to move so they move. Tama & Loa get Kevin up for Solo, another reference back to Roman Reigns! TRIPLE POWERBOMB through the desk!!! Solo, Tama & Loa stand tall over Kevin, putting up the ones. Is there no stopping this more bloodthirsty Bloodline?
My Thoughts:
A great SmackDown here, plenty of great stuff set up for Clash at the Castle. Cody wanting a fight with Styles rather than any kind of explanation was a natural response, and of course Styles makes this his way to the title match. But I really like that they’re going with an I Quit match, that is going to be some wild stuff. And good promo bit with Tiffany, Nia and Mia with Tiffy trying to cozy up to the Queen of the Ring while Nia taunts Mia with this Styles stuff. Nia VS Mia will be some good stuff, and there’s a good chance Tiffy ends up having to face Nia because Nia just can’t stand her trying to buddy up with her.
Great promo stuff from Bayley with Piper and Chelsea, but ugh the fans having to “WHAT?” Piper. I’m sure it’s cuz she’s the Heel but it came off like it was cuz of her Scottish accent and these are all Kentucky rednecks. Anyway, Chelsea of course gets herself into trouble with Naomi for a solid match there, and I wonder if Blair Davenport gets involved to start her own feud with Naomi. Great stuff with the Women’s Tag Division, too, with them calling an audible to make Jade VS Indi into Bianca & Jade VS Indi & Candice. Really good win for Bianca & Jade, really good brawl with the Raw teams, and a Triple Threat is probably a bit better than just 2v2 with Alba & Isla. If Alba & Isla aren’t gonna win, at least it won’t be their fault, Shayna & Zoey can take the loss.
Great stuff with Waller VS Gargano, especially with Theory biting the bullet for Waller. The A-Town Down Under break-up continues to progress, I bet it happens during the tag title match with DIY. Crews going from having a match to getting jumped by Legado is technically a shame for Crews but of course Legado was gonna do something like that, knowing Crews would certainly beat Angel 1v1. This could also be used to push a tag match, Angel & Humberto VS Andrade & Apollo, that then brings us to Andrade VS Santos. And great use of that mugging to give us Melo and Knight in a promo and then a match.
Melo looked good but Knight winning made sense since he also called out Logan. Logan had a good response, but a bit dim of him to say Knight should stay in the midcard while Logan is a midcard champion. Yeah, he’s a big name, he gets big attention, blah blah blah. But as the US Champion, he’s gonna run into Knight for the title eventually, and this will make for a big match in Cleveland at SummerSlam. And of course, great stuff with The Bloodline as always. Great promo from Heyman as he reluctantly acknowledges Solo Sikoa is the current Head of the Table, Tama Tonga is the new Right Hand Man, and Loa is basically the new Enforcer.
Great appearance from Kevin & The Profits, awesome Six Man Tag, and I should’ve figured it’d end in DQ, this formation of The Bloodline isn’t losing clean just yet. We can definitely get another Six Man Tag out of this, maybe make it a Street Fight, really go wild with it. Kevin and Solo should also have a 1v1 match to extend things. The fans want Roman back but I’m pretty sure we’re still gonna be waiting a month or so. There’s Money in the Bank, where this vicious Bloodline can try to win the briefcase, and maybe it’s SummerSlam where Roman makes his return, possibly with Jimmy Uso, and they start a real big Bloodline Civil War angle heading towards Survivor Series and what could be another WarGames match.
My Score: 8.8/10

MJF arrives backstage.
Renee Paquette is there to bring up tonight’s main event is Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita for the AEW World Championship. If Darby Allin wins, MJF will then have to sign a contract for Title VS Hair at Double or Nothing. Darby has made it clear that if MJF doesn’t sign said contract, Darby will never allow MJF to face him for the title again. We all know how important the title is for MJF, but is MJF willing to put his hair on the line for it? MJF just chuckles and moves on, but he notices the very bald Rick Knox, Bryce Remsburg, and the head of security, David Aponte. And then various bald members of the production staff…
And then even Christopher Daniels & Sonjay Dutt are there! Daniels and Sonjay chuckle before moving on, and then MJF sees John Silver flexing. Brandon Cutler, some arena staff, and even Tommaso Ciampa, all bald. Then last but certainly not least, Ricochet! He tells MJF that don’t worry, he’ll look great. Just not as good as Ricochet. AHA~! MJF storms off, will he have no choice but to choose between gold belt and chrome dome?
10 Man Tag: Orange Cassidy, Adam Copeland, Christian Cage & The Young Bucks VS Tommaso Ciampa, David Finlay, Clark Connors & FTR w/ Stokely Hathaway!
While we know the AEW World Tag Team Championship match will be a conglomeration of I Quit Match and New York Street Fight, THE Conglomeration will be waiting on the other side for their own tag title match. And let’s not forget that Matt & Nick Jackson want their own shot at those titles again. With that, can Freshly Squeezed work together with C&C and The Bucks? Or will the Psycho Killer, the Dogs, and the Top Guys all stand tall on the road to Double or Nothing?

Finlay CLAWS Nick’s face, Cassidy ROCKS Dax, and Cassidy whips. Dax reverses, Cassidy goes up and out to then SMACK Dax off buckles! Cassidy goes up, Ciampa BOOTS Nick, and Dax trips Cassidy.

Winners: Orange Cassidy, Adam Copeland, Christian Cage & The Young Bucks, by pinfall
Another star-studded 10 Man Tag, and it was a huge win for all the hungry contenders. Christian doesn’t wanna celebrate, but he does signal that he and Cope will be champions. Will putting their tag team legacy on the line be enough to take the gold? Or will Double or Nothing be the last night that team reeks of awesomeness?
Will Ospreay continues to train with The Death Riders.
They’re outside this time, Claudio Castagnoli playing some wall ball with Marina Shafir and Pac. Daniel Garcia says, “Tonight is the night that we’ve all been waiting for: The Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay, is cleared and back on Dynamite. And rumor has it, the kid’s been working real hard and he’s got some new tricks up his sleeves. So Young Boy Billy, tonight you gotta show me something, c’mon.” Garcia gets a quick turn in on wall ball while cameras move over. Ospreay is maintaining a neck bridge while Jon Moxley uses Wheeler Yuta as a living dummy to show just how to push and pull and bend and twist on the various chinlocks and headlocks.
Use the right arm to push against the head, then snake in the left arm for the sleeper. Pry and shoot. Moxley asks how Ospreay feels. Ospreay lets off the bridge and says honestly, the best he’s felt in forever. Moxley asks if Ospreay remembers the night he won the Best of the Super Juniors. Yeah, 2019. AKA a lifetime ago. Ospreay was carefree, flew like a bird, for no other reason than that’s just what birds do. So simple back then, chasing that feeling, like no other feeling in the world. Can’t really grab it in your hands for more than a few seconds. The joy of doing it. Then everybody comes in and tries to make it so overcomplicated.
Years pass, life happens, a family starts, responsibilities show up, bad things happen, bad choices catch up to you, and it’s all weight on your shoulders. You feel like you can’t fly. But Moxley will tell you something: Nothing is different. Nothing has changed. All those things are still gonna be there, but you can still fly. You’re just more dangerous now. You’re a bird of prey. So tonight, when you got out there, don’t go out there to protect anything. Not your neck, your image, your reputation, or what you’ve built in your career. Go out there to give something. Moxley checks on Yuta and says dammit, if you’re gonna snap a headlock, snap the headlock!
Moxley storms off to instruct his pupil, but will Ospreay use everything he has been taught to great effect? Or will he have to fold against Ace Austin?
Chris Jericho speaks.
“You wanna face Jericho in a match of my own design, Ricochet? A spectacle so innovative, so imaginative, it cannot be contained, it can only be witnessed. Well, be careful what you demand, because you’ve made a few enemies yourself, Ricochet. And now a match designed specifically to settle scores without any, and I mean AAANY~, limitations has gotten even bigger.” Chris Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate were just looking for two more, but “Jungle” Jack Perry said he can bring four: himself, The Young Bucks, and KENNY OMEGA! Jericho tells Ricochet that this is no longer what he designed, but it is a devil’s dance of destruction! Ricochet’s destruction!
Ricochet got what he wanted, now can he handle it? Bald. The first-ever SEVEN VS SEVEN Stadium Stampede, who will even survive?
Ricochet & The Demand respond.
They stand with Mark Davis of the Don Callis Family and Ricochet says we all know Jericho does a lot of talking out of his ass while The Demand gets things done. Just like Davis did when he defeated Jack for the AEW National Championship at Fairway to Hell. Hold it with pride, Davis, Ricochet knows you’ll do it well. Davis says he’s got this. Ricochet says Davis has joined the dream team, but he’s not the only one. Because compliments to Ricochet’s golfing buddy, Don Callis, look who else he’s sending: Andrade El Idolo! Gracias, amigo. But it doesn’t stop there, the train keeps rolling. Ricochet was just approached by two guys who have an ax to grind with the superkick sidekicks.
These two wanna fill out the last two spots, so who is Ricochet to say no to The Dogs? Finlay & Connors storm in, and Finlay says to put it simple, they will fight The Bucks in the streets, in the ring, but guess it’s fighting at Double or Nothing! If they want violence, if they want carnage, if they want chaos, who better than The Dogs?! The Dogs bark and Liona roars, but will these seven stand tall in the Big Apple?
“Speedball” Mike Bailey w/ Kevin Knight VS BK Westbrook!
JetSpeed has a lot of momentum on their side, and as stated last week at Fairway to Hell, they’re looking to grab up all the gold they can. Will Speedball keep on rolling towards his own golden opportunity? Or will #Supastud prove his own worth?
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two step up. Bailey bows in respect, offers a handshake, but Westbrook goes to roll Bailey up! Bailey stays on his feet, then steps over to sit down on a cover, TWO! Westbrook ducks a Penalty Kick, avoids the moonsault, and the sweep! Bailey dodges, Westbrook tiger feints through the ropes, but Bailey handsprings up and over! The fans fire up as Bailey ducks an elbow to whip. Westbrook goes up, around, but kinda fumbles his tumble. The fans cheer and jeer him for his attempt, but Westbrook blocks the boot! Westbrook FLIPS Bailey, springboards in, but Bailey dodges! TIME ADVENTURE!
Bailey pushes Westbrook down, goes up the corner, and the fans fire up for the ULTIMATE WEAPON! Cover, Bailey wins!
Winner: Mike Bailey, by pinfall
Another fast ‘n’ furious finish, and Bailey’s on a hot streak! But now, the other side of JetSpeed looks to keep it up! But just who is Kevin Knight defending the TNT Championship against? It’s… BRIAN CAGE!? The Machine finally returns to action, and he has the Don Callis Family with him! Will Cage be able to ground Knight and take this title back to the family?
AEW TNT Championship Open Challenge: Kevin Knight w/ “Speedball” Mike Bailey VS Brian Cage w/ The Don Callis Family!

Knight RAMS Cage again, but it’s still not enough! Knight tries a bigger SHOULDER TACKLE, but Cage stays standing! Knight runs one more time, ducks ‘n’ dodges, SATELLITE- NO, Cage stops the DDT! Cage THROWS Knight away!
Knight staggers, Cage SUPERKICKS him down! “Who betta than Cage?!” The fans fire up as Cage storms up on Knight, stands him up, and bumps him off buckles. Cage RAMS into Knight, stands him up, then RAMS again! The ref counts, Cage CHOPS, and the fans cheer. Bailey rallies the fans but Archer coaches Cage, and Cage whips Knight hard into the corner! The fans are torn as Cage hauls Knight up. Cage ROCKS Knight, CHOPS him, then CHOKES him on the ropes! The ref counts, Cage stops at 4, then Cage stalks Knight. Cage stands Knight up, whips him to the corner, then runs in, only for Knight to BOOT! Cage still LARIATS!
Cage hauls Knight up, whips him to ropes, but Knight grabs ropes. Knight DUMPS Cage out, then DROPKICKS him down! Cage sputters, the fans fire up, and Knight builds speed to DIVE! But he bounces off Cage! Cage then fireman’s carries, APRON F5! Knight sputters but Cage goes up the steps to soak up cheers and jeers, all while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Cage refreshes the ring count, drags Knight up again, and hits an APRON BACK SUPLEX! Knight writhes, Cage refreshes the count again, then he whips Knight into barriers! Knight practically falls into the laps of the front row! But Cage brings Knight around to CHOP him down! Cage soaks up the cheers and jeers before he brings Knight around again. Cage SMACKS Knight off the apron, then puts him in the ring. Cage storms into the ring, drags Knight by his legs, and ties the legs up into a TEXAS CLOVERLEAF! Knight endures as Cage sits deep! Knight powers up, fights his way forward, and he reaches to the ROPEBREAK!
The ref counts, Cage lets go at 4, but Cage brings Knight up. Knight CHOPS, CHOPS, and CHOPS, but Cage still doesn’t back down. Knight fires more shots, but Cage UPPERCUTS him down! Cage digs his boot into Knight at the corner, but he stops as the ref counts. Cage drags Knight up, puts him in a corner, and LARIATS! Cage wrenches to then SAIDO Knight away! Knight flounders to the apron, Cage soaks up more cheers and jeers, and Dynamite returns to single picture. Knight rises to fire forearms on Cage, but Cage ROCKS Knight in return! Cage slingshots Knight into a facelock, for a SPIRALING SUPLEX! Cover, TWO!
Knight survives and Cage is frustrated, but Cage decides to write Knight off. Cage drags Knight up, reels him in, and suplexes, DRILL- NO, Knight slips free to waistlock. But Cage ELBOWS Knight, whips, but Knight jumps up! SATELLITE- NO, Cage goes for ropes! Knight HOTSHOTS Cage for it! Then Knight springboards back in, MISSILE DROPKICK! The fans fire up while both men are down! A standing count starts while the fans rally up. Cage goes to a corner but he runs up on Knight. Knight bobs ‘n’ weaves, fires off shots, then fires a flurry of haymakers! But Cage grabs and TOSSES Knight to a corner!
Cage runs up, Knight dodges, and Knight runs back in. Knight ducks ‘n ‘dodges, FLAPJACK DROPKICK! The fans fire up as Cage bails out! Knight builds speed and FLIES! Cage catches him?!? The fans go nuts as Cage lifts, but Knight RANAS Cage into POST! The fans cheer as Knight hurries to get space. Knight runs, goes up the apron, and LEAPING LARIATS! Down goes Cage! The fans fire up with Knight, he puts Cage in the ring, and he hurries up the corner. Archer creeps up, but Bailey SUPERKICKS him! The fans cheer, but Cage CLUBS Knight!

Knight still throws Cage, then goes up top!
Knight aims, MOTHERSHIP UFO SPLASH!! Cover, KNIGHT WINS!!
Winner: Kevin Knight, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)
The Machine was out for 14 months and yet no ring rust to be found! However, The Jet is just #2Fly2Stop! Bailey brings mics into the ring to say, “Congratulations to The Jet on a hell of a win!” Knight says much appreciated. But like he said, they’re red hot right now! And Brian Cage, welcome back! Cage took Knight to his limits, but The Jet is still standing as TNT Champion. But Knight can’t get over how last week, he couldn’t get the job done becoming #Jet2Belts. Bailey says forget last week. Knight IS a future AEW World Champion! Bailey says he knows it, and everyone here knows it! The fans cheer that!
Knight says he appreciates the support from Bailey and Ashville. Bailey is always in his corner, Knight is always in Bailey’s. And if Bailey keeps it up, he’ll be singles champion, too. Bailey says yeah, Knight got him thinking. Tonight, Darby VS Takeshita, BAILEY WANTS NEXT! Bailey says Takeshita was his greatest rival in Japan, but they’ve yet to have a singles match in AEW. And Darby, as much as Bailey wants to see MJF go bald…! Bailey is coming for Darby’s AEW World Championship! JetSpeed daps it up, will they become a 2 Fly 2 Man Power Trip?
AEW reveals the Men’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament Brackets!
This year’s tournaments will go through Double or Nothing, and the finals will coincide with Forbidden Door 2026 on Sunday, June 28th in San Jose, California! The winner of each tournament will then challenge for THE AEW World Championship and AEW Women’s World Championships on August 30th at All In: London! And so, for the opening round, it will be: “Jungle” Jack Perry VS Mark Davis; Claudio Castagnoli VS Brody King; then Double or Nothing has both Samoa Joe VS Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland VS Bandido!
“Jungle” Jack Perry speaks.
“Mark Davis… I’m sure you feel some congratulations are in order. But you’re not champion to me. You see, you’re built like an Australia grizzly bear, yet you still needed somebody to hit me in the back with a golf club for you to beat me. At Stadium Stampede, bring your friends, bring any weapon you want, and I will crack you over the skull with it. Because anything goes. But after that, it’s back to grass roots, because it is you and me, fighting for a shot at the world title at All In: London. And in the Owen Hart Tournament, I will prove to you beyond a shadow of a doubt that I’m a better wrestler than you. I am the FUTURE world champion!
“And if you don’t like that, F YOU!” Jungle Jack is sharpening his knife, but will his edge be razor sharp when it comes time to cut down Dunkzilla?
Will Ospreay VS Ace Austin!
We’ve seen the Aerial Assassin training with The Death Riders, he’s won gold with his old friends in The United Empire, and now he’s about to face a dangerous man at Double or Nothing. Will Ospreay be more than ready for Samoa Joe after tonight? Or will he fail to even get past The Inevitable?
The bell rings and the fans cheer Ospreay as he stares down with Ace. Ospreay offers a handshake, Ace accepts, and the fans cheer the sportsmanship. They circle, tie up, and Ospreay wrenches to wristlock. Ace rolls, handsprings, and wrenches, but Ospreay rolls, kips up, and wrenches back. Ospreay hammerlocks, Ace rolls to kip up and wrench to then armlock. Ospreay endures the grind, fights around, and he arm-drags Ace down. Ace endures, fights around, and rises up. Ace shoots through to waistlock but Ospreay switches. Ospreay hits the headlock takeover, Ace headscissors, but Ospreay kips free.
The fans cheer the standoff, and the two reset. They feel things out, knuckle lock, and go shoulder to shoulder in a Test of Strength. The fans rally as Ace pushes Ospreay back. Ace has Ospreay down for a knuckle lock cover, ONE as Ospreay gets his arm up. Ace pushes it down, cover, ONE as Ospreay gets the other arm up. Ace tries again, ONE as Ospreay bridges! Ace jumps up, but Ospreay holds the bridge! That training truly pays off! Ace jumps, Ospreay gets him for a MONKEY FLIP! The fans fire up as Ospreay then arm-drags!

Ace TAPS, Ospreay wins!!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by submission
That might’ve been Ospreay’s first win by submission ever! He signals that his neck is no longer a problem, and he shows Ace respect for that fight. Ace accepts the handshake again, and Ospreay is moving on towards Double or Nothing with a great amount of momentum. But wait! SAMOA JOE is here! He and The Opps walk out on stage, and with mic in hand, Joe says, “Ospreay, Ospreay… OSPREAY, OSPREAY!” Joe is clearly mocking the chants for Ospreay, and the fans give genuine chanting and even singing in return. Joe says he just wanted to make sure Ospreay was listening, because these past few weeks, it seemed like Ospreay had a hard time hearing him.
Despite Ospreay’s best efforts, fate has put them on a collision course in the opening round of the Owen Hart Cup. The fans like the sound of that! Joe say she is here for one reason and one reason alone. He wants to speak about choices and consequences. Ospreay could’ve made the right choice and get a bye in this tournament, because that is what Joe would do for one of his friends. But Ospreay chose poorly. He could’ve been with the team that would do nothing but support and enhance Ospreay, but he decided to be a lapdog for Moxley and the Death Riders. The fans boo, Ospreay says he’s not a Death Rider.
Joe says Ospreay has made his choice, and come Double or Nothing, Joe makes Ospreay suffer the consequences. But Joe leaves Ospreay in peace tonight, for he has his date with destiny. But unfortunately, Joe’s friends, Katsuyori Shibata & Anthony Bowens, still feel slighted, and he doesn’t put leashes on his friends. Shibata & Bowens storm down the ramp, Ospreay ready to fight them both if he has to. But then The Death Riders appear! Ospreay may not have officially joined the club, but the Death Riders aren’t going to let their investment go to waste! The Opps say they’re #NeverLacking, but that doesn’t seem to be the case now!
Shibata & Bowens back down while Moxley, Marina, Claudio, Yuta, Garcia & Pac all step up to support Ospreay. Joe says, “Soon. Soon.” The fans cheer the Death Riders, or at least Moxley, but Bowens promises Joe is gonna kill you, Ospreay! The dream match for Double or Nothing is on, but will the training with The Death Riders make Ospreay the new King of Harts?
BREAKING NEWS for next week!
If you liked last week’s THREE HOUR block of AEW, then you’ll love this next one! Portland, Maine, the last Wednesday before Double or Nothing, Dynamite & Collision are combining forces again! Three hours all on TBS and HBO Max, make sure your DVR is set accordingly!
Backstage interview with Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita.
Renee is now with The Invisible Hand & The Alpha, saying tonight is a huge opportunity in the main event, Konosuke facing Darby Allin for THE AEW World Championship. Konosuke could be heading into Double or Nothing as a- Callis stops Renee there to say Konosuke will be heading into Double or Nothing as a DOUBLE champion! But then MJF steps in, apologizes for the interruption but says Renee’s doing a great job. The Scumbag tells Konosuke that while it’s been a minute since the two of them have talked, three years actually, back when MJF beat him… MJF has seen Konosuke develop into truly one of the best wrestlers in the world!
MJF believes that tonight, Konosuke beats Darby for the title, goes to DON to beat Okada, and MJF can’t think of a better match than Konosuke VS MJF Part 2 for the world title. How’s that sound? MJF offers a handshake, Konosuke shakes his hand, but in Japanese, Konosuke tells MJF that he’ll beat the crap out of him. Thankfully, MJF doesn’t know Japanese. Callis says that was a nice pep talk MJF just gave, and MJF says yes, he knows. That kid needs to win, okay? MJF can’t let Darby turn him into some disgusting, bald freak! No offense, Callis looks great. But look, there is only one foolproof way to know MJF won’t be put in that situation.
So if things get hairy… MJF hands over the Dynamite Diamond Ring! Callis smiles, and say she understands what to do with it. But then in steps Andrade. El Idolo takes off his hat to shake out his amazing head of hair, and smiles at MJF. MJF frowns and leaves. Callis says here’s the deal: Takeshita will bring the world title home to the Don Callis Family tonight! Andrade asks, “How you know?” Callis says aye dios mio, he seriously doesn’t know where Andrade learned English. Andrade says one way or another, the next time, that will be HIS title. Callis says yes, he knows, it’s all good. Callis is a man of many talents, but will his family be dripping with gold thanks to a diamond ring?
AEW now announces the Women’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament brackets!
Double or Nothing will see Willow Nightingale, the reigning Queen of Harts, take on Alex Windsor, while we will see Persephone VS Hazuki, Skye Blue vs Sareee, and Mina Shirakawa VS Athena! Champions from around the world are gathering for this tournament, but who will be headed to Forbidden Door, and then All In: London?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Renee Paquette is now with Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong, and Willow Nightingale. Renee commends Cassidy on his part in the 10 Man Tag victory. But it seems that there is even more business to attend to. Cassidy says yes, the team has a shot at THE AEW World Tag Team Championships. It doesn’t matter who it is, they’re getting their shot, but the thing is… They still haven’t decided on which two will be. Kyle says Cassidy & Roddy should go for the gold, but Roddy shouts, “KYYYLE~! Thank you.” Kyle says of course. But that’s cuz he’s got gold to chase for himself!
The same man that put Kyle on the shelf for months is the man that Kyle submitted twice, and will submit again. Jon Moxley, Continental Champion, when are we doing this? Willow says speaking of gold, she is still the TBS Champion. But she is also in the Owen Hart Cup. She won this tournament before, she’ll do it all over again, so that she can have all the gold for herself at All In: London. She knows she can, and she will! Then Conglomeration has it all in order? Cassidy says hold on, there’s something missing. They should do a Word of the Day. Why haven’t they done one in so long? Roddy shouts for “MAAARK~!” And yes, Mark Briscoe returns!
The Sussex County Chicken is all fired up, and he says the Word of the day is reunification! For Mark Briscoe is back with his boys and his girls, The Conglomeration! But he’ll put this plain and simple: Tommaso Ciampa! Next Wednesday, Briscoe’s after your ass, son! You hear him? But before that, Saturday Night Collision is in HIS hometown, Salisbury, Maryland! That’s just 4.4 miles from where Briscoe originated on this earth! They’re gonna conglomerate and it’s gonna be a a hell of a time! Are you ready!? Willow and Kyle are fired up, Briscoe goes wild, and the team heads out. Cassidy admits, that was a lot of yelling.
But while The Conglomeration is ready to go Double or Nothing, will they soon have even more gold in the collection? Or are these high and lofty a little too much even for them?
Six Woman Tag: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds VS The Triangle of Madness!
With the news of both the AEW Women’s World Championship Fatal 4 Way for Double or Nothing, and the Owen Hart Cup brackets, this trios match is about much more than just settling scores! Will the Shining Samurai be just as sharp as Jamie Hayter going into that title match? Or will Thekla, Skye Blue & Julia Hart continue to bring them down by any means necessary?
The trios sort out and Jamie steps up against Thekla as both a rematch from their 1v1 title match, and a preview of what’s to come in the next. They circle, but then Skye CLOBBERS Jamie! Julia steps in, but so do Shida and Windsor! The Triangle throws hands on Shida & The Birds, then triple whip. But all three reverse, a BOOT for Thekla, a DDT for Skye, and a BACKBREAKER for Julia! The fans cheer as The Triangle bails out! Shida goes out to keep after Skye while Windsor goes after Julia. Jamie gets Thekla back in the ring while Shida and Windsor have the Sisters of Sin in the corners of the barriers. The fans cheer as they all rain down fists!
Windsor, Jamie & Shida all go to nine, then wind up for TEN! The fans cheer again while Thekla sputters. Jamie snap suplexes, but Skye ROCKS Shida! Jamie stomps Thekla, Windsor SLAMS Julia off barriers, and Jamie stomps a mudhole in the corner. The ref counts, Jamie lets off, but Skye and Windsor meet while tightrope walking the barriers! Skye and Windsor trade shots, they wobble a bit, then Skye DECKS Windsor! Skye keeps from falling into the crowd, but Jamie gets her! Windsor joins in and the Birds double gorilla press, SNAKE EYES off the apron! The fans fire up, but Thekla is up top! SUPER CROSSBODY onto The Birds!
The fans fire up again and Thekla is feeling it while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Thekla stomps Windsor, CLUBS Jamie, then helps Skye. But Shida runs up, only for Thekla to ELBOW her down! The Triangle has control again, they ROCK Jamie and Shida and Windsor, then send them all to the desk. The Triangle CHOP again and again and again! Then they wind up, but feint chops to SMACK all three off the apron! The Triangle soaks up the cheers and jeers before putting Jamie back in the ring. Thekla brings Jamie up, snapmares her down, then basement SUPERKICKS! Cocky cover, TWO! Thekla drags Jamie to the corner, tags Julia, and Julia runs up to LARIAT! Then she goes side to side to ELBOW Jamie down!
Julia snapmares Jamie to a cover, TWO! Julia is annoyed but she rains down fists. The ref reprimands, Julia stops, but then she sucker punches Windsor! And Shida, too! Julia then drags Jamie over, bumps her off buckles, and tags in Skye. Skye stomps Jamie around, then digs her boot in! The ref counts, Skye stops at 4, then she brings Jamie up. Jamie fires forearms and CHOPS, but Skye THROWS Jamie down by her hair! The ref reprimands again but Skye rains down forearms. Skye snapmares Jamie, mule kicks her, then covers, TWO! Skye frowns but she stomps Jamie down. Skye tags Julia while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Skye whips Jamie into Julia’s grasp, and Skye BLASTS Shida & Windsor while Julia tags Thekla. Julia has Jamie in the TARANTULA, and Skye sends Windsor in for Thekla’s HANGING HEADSCISSORS! Skye runs up to DOUBLE SHOTGUN The Birds! The fans are torn but Thekla says that’s how the Triangle does it, baby! Thekla then aims to MISSILE- NO, Jamie gest under! Thekla lands out, but Jamie BOOTS her down! Jamie looks at Shida, Shida is hesitant, but Shida tags in! The fans cheer as Shida sends Theknla to the corner, then JUMP KNEES!

Julia storms in but Shida kicks her and whips her into Thekla! Shida KNEES them both in the corner!

Julia tags Skye, then tag back to Thekla. The Sisters of Sin hit the DOUBLE GOURD BUSTER and DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Thekla hits the bridge, and she aims for the SPIDER SPEAR!

Skye SUPERKICKS again, but Windsor HEADBUTTS! The fans fire up as Jamie joins in again, and they DOUBLE LARIAT SANDWICH! Then they set Skye up, and Jamie says let’s try this again!
Jamie runs the ropes, but Thekla slides in, BELT SHOT on Jamie!! No question that the ref saw that! The Triangle is disqualified!
Winners: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds, by disqualification
The Toxic Spider doesn’t care about this win, she just wants to do damage! Skye gets Windsor in a DRAGON SLEEPER! The ref stops Thekla from sing the title belt again, so Thekla just takes off her own belt! And she LASHES Windsor while Skye holds her down! More refs rush out here, but Julia MISTS the newbie in the face! Julia stomps away on Jamie, not caring about fines or consequences, either! The fans boo, and Shida is bailing on the Birds? Shida cares more about her chances in that Fatal 4 Way than anything else. But then Willow, Mina, and even Thunder Rosa rush out here! They chase The Triangle off with belts of their own!
The fans cheer as The Babe, the Fighting Gravure Idol & La Mera Mera save the day. But will Jamie make sure Thekla and Shida pay for this at Double or Nothing?
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita!
They say “card subject to change,” and that is true even for the best in the world. Kazuchika Okada’s real family takes priority, but his Don Callis Family brother was more than happy to step up for this opportunity. Will The Alpha already have two belts by the time he and The Rainmaker battle over the International Championship? Or will Darby truly be relentless in his pursuit of being the best fighting champion in AEW history?
The introductions are made, THE belt is raised, and we see who goes to Double or Nothing on top!
