PLAY BY PLAY
Alex Marvez waits in a parking lot.
He is in the hotel parking garage, hoping for a scoop from Will Ospreay after last week’s devastating loss to MJF in the International Championship match. However, Ospreay goes right past Marvez and Marvez hurries after. Marvez asks for a comment but Ospreay says he’ll tell everyone what he has to say, once he arrives at the arena. Except someone slashed his tire! Three guesses who. Ospreay asks if Marvez rented a car. He did. Then hand over the keys! What? O-Okay. Marvez hands over the keys, Ospreay has him carry the luggage, and they hurry to Marvez’s rental. They get in and Marvez asks if Ospreay’s driven in America. NOPE! Uh oh.
Ospreay peels out of the parking garage, hoping to make it to Bridgestone Arena before the show is over! Will he have plenty to say after what the Wolf of Wrestling (or rather, weasel) did last week?
Cheerleaders line the ramp…?
They ask Nashville to give them an M! “M!” Give them a J! “J!” Give them an F! “F!” What’s that spell? M J F! That’s right, the NEW International Champion makes his way out, all smiles as he wears the belt he stol- er, won last week on Dynamite. He of course has them cut his music so he can talk. And he stands in the ring on camera left, with a podium, and something under a black cloth. MJF says, “Ospreay did not hit the Tiger Driver 91 because he is a gutless coward. The fact that you mouth breathers actually thought he could beat me when he couldn’t even beat that shmuck, Swerve, is laughable.”
The fans boo but MJF says by the way, Shane, MJF hasn’t forgotten about his world championship. And MJF is telling you now… The fans tell MJF to STFU first. MJF continues by saying he is just waiting for his moment to pounce. If he were Swerve, he’d pray to God that that moment never comes. See, when the spotlight is on MJF, MJF shines bright like a diamond, baby. He kisses the Dynamite Diamond Ring, the very item that helped him win, and MJF says that when the spotlight is on our “wittle hewo,” Ospreay, Ospreay MELTS. MJF beat Will Ospreay without breaking a damn sweat. Easiest match of his life!
And MJF did it quickly, efficiently, and wrestling analysts are saying it is the most dominant victory of all time. Not his words, all theirs. The fans boo these blatant lies, but MJF says ordinarily, a lot of people would tell Ospreay to burn those brittle as hell indie kick pads and just retire, but that’s not good enough. If it were MJF, he’d take a long walk off a short pier. But lucky for Ospreay, his grandma died recently, right? The fans boo MJF bringing up Ospreay’s nan, but MJF says just dig a grave next to hers. Bro tip: dig it a football field away from the old lady. That fat skank needs all the room she can get!
The fans boo while MJF laughs at his own insult. He then tells the fans to shut up. If Ospreay doesn’t like the facts MJF has to say, then he should come on out here and face him like a man. Oh wait, Ospreay won’t, because he’s worthless. Or because his car got sabotaged and Ospreay’s on his way. MJF says speaking of worthless, let’s talk this International Championship. The fans love this belt because it was held by “workhorses” who would come out here week in and week out, trying to earn their affection by putting in the work. Barf! What a joke. Working hard is for poors like all of the fans. Fans tell MJF he’s an a-hole in return.
MJF says people like this belt because it was held by “international talent.” MJF would have to sit back and watch the fans pretend that anyone outside of our great nation matters to them, and honestly, they’re unpatriotic and treasonous. MJF nods and says he deserves a title worthy of his superior intellect, his superior bank account, and his superior upbringing. This title, much like Daniel Garcia, “Willy Boy” and all these White trash hicks in Nashville, is nothing more than garbage. And down that belt goes into a trash can! The fans boo but MJF goes to his podium. MJF deserves a title that symbolizes the best wrestler in the world, and the best country in the world.
Newsflash: he does not mean that “third world cesspool” of a country known as the United Kingdom. So ladies and gentlemen, please rise for the brand new AEW American Championship! The cloth is taken away to reveal the belt, and it admittedly looks good. Fans chant “U S A! U S A!” MJF says while he appreciates those chants, when he talks America, he isn’t talking “Nasty Ass Nashville.” No, MJF is talking about real America. The only America that matters: the most magical place in the world, Plainview, Long Island, New York!
The fans boo but MJF says God bless the USA, God bless this American Championship, but also God bless your American hero, Maxwell Jacob Friedman. Thank him later. MJF holds up the belt and has red, white and blue streamers fly. There’s even an American flag with 50 MJFs on it! Wait! Ospreay rushes into the ring! MJF goes running, belt in hand and tail tucked between his legs! Ospreay grabs his mic and tells MJF, “You can try your best to feed everyone horse *hit, but we ain’t eatin’ it! I was in that match so allow me to tell everyone what was going through your damn mind at minute 59, when you were breathin’ out your ass, and you can’t stand it!
“And there is no way in your mind you knew that you could beat me. So you reached into your trunks, went past your tiny little d… And you pulled out that diamond ring and cracked it over my skull. You would’ve rather had cheated than admit that a guy like me is on your level.” MJF defends his innocence, but Ospreay tells him that Ospreay has the best news for him. This will put a smile on MJF’s face! Ospreay had a meeting with Tony Khan and Christopher Daniels. And guess what? Ospreay’s getting a rematch! MJF doesn’t understand, but Ospreay says he also has that rematch… on home soil!!
Ospreay tells MJF that Sunday, August 25th, it will be Ospreay VS MJF fort the International Championship at All In!! The fans fire up, MJF says he didn’t agree to that! But that doesn’t matter, he has to do it! Ospreay makes sure to get the International Championship belt out of the trash and clean it off. Who will stand tall at the end of this war in Wembley?
AEW goes backstage.
Referee Bryce Remsburg has the official Blood & Guts coin to determine which team gets advantage for the main event. But when Bryce walks into the room, he finds The Elite standing around Christopher Daniels on the floor! They claim they found him like this. Matthew Jackson also adds that The Elite has their own coin, “AEW” on one side and “Elite” on the other. Matt flips the coin, the ref confirms, Elite wins the advantage! Wait, where is Hangman? Isn’t he supposed to be here? Matt tells the guys relax. They made a deal with Hangman, he’ll honor that deal. Now let’s go get it, boys! Blood & Guts! By the way, Matt was using a two-sided coin.
The EVPs found a way to rig things in their favor, but will having the man-up advantage really help them #ManUp against Mark Briscoe, Darby Allin, The Acclaimed & Swerve Strickland?
FTW Championship: Chris Jericho VS Minoru Suzuki!
The Learning Tree has been champion for 95 days, but not without a little bit of help from his Branches. However, Tony Khan thought ahead, and has decided to prune those Branches by banning Big Bill & Bryan Keith from ringside! Jericho will have to face the Meanest Man in the World all by himself, will nothing save him from being chopped down? Or does The Wizard have one more trick up his sleeve?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who destroys the other “For The World?”
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two circle. Suzuki eggs Jericho on, but Jericho waves hi to the fans. Jericho steps up, he and Suzuki talk some smack, and then Jericho CHOPS! Suzuki shrugs, then CHOPS in return! Jericho CHOPS, but Suzuki smirks. Suzuki CHOPS, Jericho CHOPS, repeat! Suzuki eggs Jericho on more, so Jericho CHOPS! Suzuki CHOPS, Jericho CHOPS, and Suzuki just laughs! Suzuki CHOPS, taunts Jericho, so Jericho CHOPS! Suzuki likes that, and the CHOPS keep going!

Suzuki brings Jericho around to CHOP again! And again! Those are high, too! Suzuki CHOPS, Jericho CHOPS, repeat! The fans “WOO~!” as the CHOPS just keep going!

The CHOPS just keep going! Jericho flips Suzuki off then CHOPS, CHOPS and CHOPS! Suzuki CHOPS again and Jericho staggers away to a corner. Suzuki grins, Jericho CHOPS! Suzuki CHOSP, eggs Jericho on, so Jericho CHOPS! Suzuki CHOPS and Jericho staggers. Jericho comes back, the CHOPS keep going, and Suzuki again backs Jericho to a corner. The fans fire up as the CHOPS just keep going!
Jericho sits down in the corner, the ref checks him, and Suzuki fires the fans up again. Jericho’s chest is only redder, but so is Suzuki’s. Jericho stands, CHOPS, but Suzuki CHOSP! The CHOP fest is far from over as they just keep going! Jericho gets the edge, but Suzuki is unfazed! He CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS! Jericho goes to ropes, but he comes back to CHOP, CHOP and CHOP! Suzuki revels in it, but Jericho is tiring out! That’s when Suzuki CHOPS again! Suzuki CHOPS Jericho, Dynamite returns to single picture, and you better believe the CHOPS keep going! Jericho kicks low and fires a forearm!
The fans boo Jericho ruining the fun, but he soaks up the heat. Jericho runs, to LARIAT! Suzuki falls and Jericho celebrates like he’s already won! Jericho then triangle jumps but Suzuki steps back, and CHOPS! Jericho swings, into a HANGING ARMBAR! The fans fire up as there’s no ropebreaks here! Jericho flails, endures, but Suzuki lets go to then drag Jericho out of the ring. Suzuki SMACKS Jericho off the desk! The fans fire up as Suzuki grabs a chair and brings it over! Suzuki JAMS Jericho up, SMACKS him on the back, and Jericho hobbles away. Suzuki grabs a second chair, KICKS Jericho down, then puts Jericho’s hand through the chair!
Suzuki grabs the first chair, he’s going to do Jericho like Jericho did Shibata! CON-CHAIR-TO on the arm! Jericho clutches his hand and Suzuki grins. The fans are thunderous, they want that “ONE MORE TIME!” Suzuki does one better and he bends the fingers! Suzuki brings Jericho over to the railing so fans can get a better look! Suzuki lets off, Taz sure loves this, and Suzuki eggs Jericho on. Jericho CHOPS, but that’s the bad hand! So Jericho CHOPS with the left! Suzuki ROCKS Jericho with a forearm! Suzuki puts Jericho in the ring, then grabs the bad hand to twist and wrangle Jericho into a FUJIWARA ARMBAR!
Suzuki bends the fingers again, Jericho suffers while he reaches out futilely for ropes! Jericho rolls, but Suzuki bends the fingers even more! Jericho CLAWS Suzuki’s face! The fans boo but Jericho hits a CODE BREAKER! Cover, ONE?!? Suzuki roars as he rises up and Jericho is shocked! Nashville is thunderous as Suzuki glares at Jericho. Jericho scowls back, and the forearms start flying! They go back and forth, Nashville still behind Suzuki. The two stand, Suzuki ROCKS Jericho, but Jericho hits back! And again! And again! Suzuki ROCKS Jericho and Jericho leans against ropes. Suzuki whips Jericho, follows him, shoots around, for the SLEEPER!
Jericho flails, but Suzuki spins him! But Jericho trips Suzuki! WALLS OF JERICHO! The fans boo as now Suzuki endures! Suzuki powers his way around and throws hands from below! Suzuki then BOOTS Jericho away, shoots around again, SLEEPER! Jericho flails, Suzuki spins him and reel shim in! Gotch hold, PILE- NO, Jericho fights free, and LOW BLOWS! The fans boo but it isn’t cheating this time! JUDAS EFFECT!! Cover, Jericho wins!
Winner: Chris Jericho, by pinfall (still FTW Champion)
It may not have been as extreme as other FTW Championship matches, but it was gritty, brutal and even downright nasty! But while Jericho holds up the belt, Suzuki rises to his feet! The Murder Grandpa snatches Jericho into a SLEEPER! And then the Gotch hold and PILEDRIVER!! The fans fire up as Suzuki stands tall, but here come Keith & Bill! No more ringside ban, and they beat Suzuki down! The fans boo as Bill & Keith CHOKE Suzuki! But wait! Here comes Shibata!! The Wrestler is 100%, and he also slides in from the crowd side! Shibata CLUBS Keith, CLUBS Bill, then ducks ‘n’ dodges Bill, to bait him into a DUMP to the outside!
Keith ROCKS Shibata, fans boo, but Shibata whips to kitchen sink knee! Shibata throws off his shirt, but the Branches go running! They regroup with The Learning Tree, will The Wrestler make them all pay for everything they’ve done?
Backstage interview with Willow Nightingale.
Renee Paquette is with the NEW CMLL Women’s World Champion, congratulates her on that win, and asks what it means to have that title on her shoulder. Willow says she’s traveled the world and… Stokely Hathaway walks over. Stokely says hi, then Kris Statlander attacks! The Galaxy’s Greatest Traitor beats Willow down, drags her back up, and smiles as she fireman’s carries Willow, for an F5 onto road cases! The Babe with the Power writhes, and Stokely says Willow knows why they’re here. Kris holds up the title and Stoke says next week on Dynamite, they have a Title Eliminator match for the CMLL Women’s World Championship.
Stokely asks Willow what she thinks, but Willow is in too much pain. Stokely says okay, she’ll let them know. Kris drops the belt onto Willow, but will Willow drop Kris when these two have it out in the ring?
Backstage interview with Bryan Danielson.
It was earlier today that The American Dragon shared a conversation he had with Doc Sampson. Bryan knew that to be All In ready, he needed to do this, eat that, but this week, Doc told Bryan that his neck is fixable, so they need to keep it that way. Bryan says he’s good, he’ll work hard, do his best, and just enjoy the moment. Wembley Stadium! How awesome is that, right? But then in steps Jeff Jarrett! Double J tells Bryan that he was over there with RJ City, and he just wants to say this: Bryan knows better than anyone that Jarrett was crushed not to have won The Owen Cup. But in hindsight, Bryan overcame the odds Jarrett didn’t, and Bryan was the perfect guy to win.
Bryan has a date with destiny, and Jarrett couldn’t have been more proud to be in Calgary than to have been there when Bryan raised the cup. Bryan thanks Jarrett, and Jarrett says Bryan has Wembley in the crosshairs. And he’s facing a champion in Swerve Strickland, who knows exactly what he needs to do, is dialed in and focused on keeping that title. Jarrett knows Bryan needs to rest up physically, but there’s also a lot of mental recovery to get done. Bryan can sit on the fence, maybe even have one foot out the door, or even make an excuse. But Jarrett wants Bryan to know that if he’s going All In, then he better go All In.
A lot of people believe in Bryan. Jarrett is at the top of that list. The Last Outlaw leaves and Renee asks where all that sits with Bryan. Bryan says a lot of that is true. He has work to do. Bryan thanks Renee for the time and heads out. What will The American Dragon do to prepare himself inside and out for The Realest AEW World Champion, Swerve Strickland?
Britt Baker VS Hikaru Shida!
The DMD returned to AEW at Forbidden Door, and has since then been calling out The CEO for a TBS Championship! But the Shining Samurai, a former THREE-TIME AEW Women’s World Champion, is not letting Britt just have what she wants! Will Shida stake her own claim to Mercedes Mone’s gold? Or will Britt prove herself more than worthy with a big return victory?
The bell rings, the fans rally up, and the two circle. They tie up, go around, and Shida powers Britt to ropes. The ref counts, Shida lets off but Britt avoids the forearm! The fans duel, “Let’s Go, Shida!” “D M D!” The two tie up and Britt wrenches to a hammerlock. Britt snapmares then ghost pins, TWO! Shida staggers up and Britt runs up to headlock. Shida fights the takeover, lifts Britt, but Britt fights the suplex. They end up in a corner, Shida stomps then whips. Britt stops herself, slips around to roll Shida, TWO! Britt hurries to clamp onto arms! Shida fights but Britt rolls her to another ghost pin, TWO! Shida has a cover, TWO!
Britt headscissors, Shida rolls free and then slips away. The fans cheer the standoff and the two reset. They approach, Shida kicks low and TOSSES Britt out. Shida storms out after Britt, but the two brawl. Shida KNEES low, RAMS Britt into railing, then brings her around the way to make her sit in a corner. Shida climbs up to rain down fists! The fans fire up and count, Shida goes all the way to TEN! Shida fires up, the fans fire up, and then Shida brings Britt back into the ring. Shida then puts Britt on the apron, gets space, and runs in to KNEE LIFT! Shida roars and the fans fire up more while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Britt sputters, Shida drags her in and stomps her. Shida paces while Britt slowly sits up. Shida digs her knee into Britt against ropes, but the ref counts. Shida lets off, drags Britt up again, and CLUBS her on the back. Shida then scoops, carries Britt around, then SLAMS her down. Cover, TWO! Shida clamps right on with a CAMEL CLUTCH! Britt endures being bent back, and she reaches out for ropes. Shida pulls Britt around but Britt still has the ROPEBREAK! Shida lets off in frustration, and she SLAPS Shida around. Shida drags Britt up to bump her off buckles, then bumps her off buckles again.
Shida brings Britt around and RAMS her into buckles! Britt falls back, Shida sits on her to cover, TWO! Shida’s cover was a little cocky so she puts Britt in the corner. Shida goes up but Britt shoves her back. Britt catches Shida for a BUCKLE SHOT! Shida sputters, Britt snarls, and both slowly sit up. Britt storms up to stomp Shida, then drags her up. Britt CLUBS Shida, ROCKS her, then reels her in. Shida fights the suplex, to CORNER SUPLEX Britt! Britt slumps off the buckles while Dynamite returns to single picture. The fans rally, Britt bails out, and Shida goes up the ropes. Shida says she’s gonna give Britt another bloody nose!
But then Britt rolls in and CLUBS Shida down! Britt waistlocks, but avoids an elbow. Britt runs to NECKBREAKER DROP! Britt whips, Shida reverses but Britt SLINGBLADES! And with some torque! Britt brings out her glove and puts it on! The fans fire up, Britt spells it out, “D! M! D!” But Shida runs up! Britt ROCKS Shida, fires off more shots, then storms up, into a KNEE! Shida hops around Britt to GERMAN SUPLEX! Shida holds on, rolls Britt and has the ARMBAR! Britt scrambles around, but Shida flips her over and facelocks. Gator roll and roll back into a GUILLOTINE! Britt endures, so Shida KNEES her down!
The fans fire up and Shida goes up the corner. Shida METE- NO, Britt dodges and SUPERKICKS! Britt runs but Shida dodges the stomp! Britt ripcords, but Shida stops the forearm to ROCK Britt! Shida runs, but into a SUPERKICK! Shida drops to her knees but so does Britt and the fans are thunderous! Britt drags Shida up and reels her into an Alabama Lift, Shida sunset flips, jackknife bridges, TWO! Britt has the cover, TWO! Shida prawn holds, TWO!! Britt narrowly escapes and Shida is pissed! Shida hammers away on Britt’s head, then drags her up. Shida reels Britt in, FALCON- NO, Britt fights out and wrangles Shida down!
Britt wants the arm, Shida fights around, and Shida has the ROPEBREAK! Britt lets go, the fans fire up, and Shida sees her kendo stick! Shida resists temptation, storms up on Britt, but Britt ripcords and ROLLING ELBOWS! Then a TWIST ‘N’ SHOUT! Cover, TWO!! Shida survives, but Britt clamps on! RINGS OF- NO, Shida powers out, blocks a superkick, then QUESTION MARK KICKS! Shida reels Britt in to FALCON ARROW! The fans are thunderous, Shida takes aim, KATA- NO, Britt fireman’s carries for a takeover, and has the RINGS OF SATURN!! Shida flails, but ends up in LOCKJAW!! Shida TAPS, Britt wins!
Winner: Britt Baker, by submission
Add another classic into this storied rivalry! But wait, here comes The CEO to rain on Britt’s parade. Mone has a mic to say, “Wow. Britt, that was very impressive. What a strong victory over a former champion. Now, Britt, I know that you want a shot at this at All In. And what would be hotter than The CEO VS The DMD? So let’s get to it! Because I know that you and everybody here is waiting to hear my answer. And that answer is… NO.” The fans boo but we should’ve known she’d say that. Britt dares Mone to step inside, but wait, who is that?! Is that KAMILLE!? Formerly of NWA Power, but now here in AEW, doing Mone’s dirty work!
Kamille hauls Britt up, and marches around with her for a TORTURE RACK! Britt can only suffer the thrashing, before the TOWER HACKER BOMB! Kamille stands over Britt and Mone stands by her side. The CEO has signed a powerful insurance policy, will no one ever take the TBS Championship from her?
The Patriarchy speaks.
Holding all three belts, Christian Cage says, “Nashville, you haven’t earned the right to see Christian Cage in person, so I’ll be conducting my business from the bowels of the arena. Now this past Saturday on Collision, The Patriarchy triumphed when we walked out the brand new Trios Champions. And this Friday on Rampage, my son, Nick, is entered in the Royal Rampage, and he’s going to walk out as the brand new #1 contender to the World Heavyweight Championship.” Now, Nick has earned the right to speak, so Christian gives him the floor. Nick says first, the AEW Trios Championships. And soon to be, #1 contender…
Nick spots something, and he asks Kip Sabian why he keeps seeing Kip around. Kip doesn’t know what Nick’s talking about, but Nick says he saw Kip last Saturday while The Patriarchy was headed to the ring, and now Kips right here. What’s his deal? There is no deal. Oh, is that so? Well, Nick knows Kip is also in the Royal Rampage, so Nick will throw Kip’s ass out. And by the way, no one cares that Kip’s dad died. Be a man and suck it up. Nick leaves but will Kip make Nick care when Nick has a Superbad time on Friday?
PAC VS Beefcake Boulder w/ The Iron Savages!
Speaking of #1 contenders, despite Will Ospreay wanting his rematch at Wembley, The Bastard is still THE #1 contender to the International/American Championship. Will Pac show his full power against this powerhouse? Or will sippin’ sauce and livin’ hoss be enough for Boulder to bulldoze The Bastard?
The bell rings and Pac steps right to Boulder. Boulder flexes, but Pac SOBATS! Pac facelocks, but he can’t suplex Boulder! Boulder suplexes Pac, but Pac slips free and kicks Boulder to a corner. Pac BOOTS Boulder, runs corner to corner, but Boulder CLOBBERS Pac! The fans boo but Boulder storms his way to a corner to go up and MOONSAULT! He FLOPS as Pac dodges! Pac UPPERCUTS, then goes corner to corner to SHOTGUN! Pac stomps away on Boulder, the ref counts, but Pac digs his boot in! The ref counts, Pac lets off, and Pac seethes. Pac goes out to then climb a corner while Boulder staggers up.
Pac MISSILE DROPKICKS and down goes Boulder! The fans fire up and Pac storms over to Boulder. Pac reels Boulder in, and he actually suplexes Boulder, for a BRAINBUSTER!! Cover, Pac wins!
Winner: Pac, by pinfall
Pac says this is HIS ring, and he scrapes Boulder out of it. But what is he to do if he wants to be part of Wembley and that International/American Championship fiasco?
Team AEW speaks.
Swerve Strickland tells Nashville, “Whose house? The spirit of AEW is on the rise tonight. And I asked these young gentlemen, these warriors, last week if they were ready to get violent. And quite frankly, we’re going to show The Elite what that’s all about. All while led by yours truly, the AEW World Champion-” Darby Allin tells Swerve to shut up. Swerve’s the leader? He’s going to go around telling everyone he’s leading them? He ain’t leadin’ nothing! This isn’t about Swerve, but about getting even with The Elite. Swerve and Darby won’t see eye to eye, not tonight or any night. Oh, okay, that’s what this is all about?
Well, when it’s all said and done, if Darby wants to get violent with Swerve, then Swerve would be more than happy to. Max Caster asks if “Sneaky Swerve” will be happy to get violent with him. Does he wanna get violent with the Best Wrestler Alive? The Acclaimed remembers what Swerve did to them. Hell, Caster will get violent with Darby, too, he doesn’t like Darby’s weird ass. Anthony Bowens says that’s right! They don’t care about the petty differences between Darby and Swerve. This is about The Acclaimed getting the AEW World Tag Team Championships back and eliminating The Young Bucks.
Swerve says they choose now to get like this? This is what they wanna do? Mark Briscoe steps in to mediate. Simmer down, boys. They gotta let the past be the past. Mark feels like the man that fell out the boat, because he ain’t in it. But tonight, put all that behind them! Tonight, they are Team AEW! And The Elite, we know your game plan! It’s divide and conquer, so we cannot allow that to happen! Tonight, stand united! And all the entitled and pompous ones worldwide will know that they ain’t safe! The violent people are here! They’re coming, baby! It’s on!! The team rallies behind The Chicken, but will they be able to stand together so they can stand tall tonight?
Mariah May VS Kaitland Alexis!
No longer Toni Storm’s protege, understudy or anything of the sort, “The Glamour” that is the Queen of Harts is preparing to tear the AEW World Championship away from the Leading Lady. So will she make an example of Tennessee’s own? Or will she be upstaged by an upstart, just like Toni Storm?
The bell rings and Mariah SHOTGUNS Kaitland down! The fans fire up, Mariah fires off in the corner, but the ref counts. Mariah shoves Kaitland out of the corner, goes up the corner, and then MISSILE DROPKICKS! Kaitland flounders, Mariah smirks and drags her up, to CLUB away on her like she did Toni Storm’s bloody forehead! Then she kisses Kaitland goodnight, also like she did Storm. Then Mariah runs to KNEE Kaitland, and fireman’s carries for MAYDAY! But Mariah isn’t done, she wants to have some fun. Mariah drags Kaitland into the corner, strikes a pose, then hits the SWEET HIP MUSIC!! And then, STORM ZERO!! Cover, Mariah wins!
Winner: Mariah May, by pinfall
As she’s been doing for months, anything Storm can do, Mariah feels she can do better. Wait! Storm is here?! But then Mariah laughs, because she again pulled one over on us. WAIT! The ringside medic pulls off a wig and reveals she’s Toni Storm!! The fans are thunderous and Mariah senses something is wrong. Mariah turns around and sees Storm staring daggers! The two fire off haymakers and the fans erupt! Refs rush out here, fans boo, but the refs and security pull the two apart! Nashville wants to “LET THEM FIGHT!” but we’ll see plenty of that in Wembley Stadium. Storm gets a mic and shouts, “ARE YOU PREPARED TO DIE!? BECAUSE I AM!!”
Security does everything they can to keep Storm back. Is Storm’s Summer blockbuster going to be a revenge story a la Kill Bill?
Blood & Guts: The Elite VS Team AEW!
As Dean Malenko narrates, this isn’t just any normal grudge match. This is for the heart and soul of AEW as these ten men step into two rings and four walls of unforgiving steel. “Blood will be shed, but who has the most guts? Submission or surrender, who will survive?” The Elite has the advantage, and is almost completely golden as The Young Bucks have the tag titles, Kazuchika Okada has the Continental Championship and Jack Perry has the TNT Championship, but will gold matter when everything is about to be stained a crimson red?
First out for The Elite is the Scapegoat, Jack Perry! He even brings a chair with him because he isn’t taking any chances. Who will meet him from Team AEW? We find out, after the break.
Blood & Guts returns and Darby Allin makes his entrance! Fitting as the Relentless One wants after that TNT Championship. And also fitting is that Darby’s once again got thumbtacks all over the bottom of that skateboard! But Jack SMACKS Darby right at the cage door! The fans boo but Jack soaks it up while he goes out after Darby. Jack CLUBS Darby, hauls him up, and BOMBS him into the side of the cage! Jack drags Darby along, CLUBS him down again, then goes to fetch steel steps. Jack pushes the steps against railing, then brings Darby up. Jack whips Darby hard into the steps, and Darby tumbles up and over railing!
Fans fire up as the front row catches Darby in their laps! Jack soaks up the heat, stalks Darby into the crowd, and CLAWS Darby’s back! They now bring the fight around to the back of the floor level! They brawl, keep moving, and the fans fire up as they get to see more of the fight up close! Darby has fans move so he can push Jack all the way back to the railing! The fans fire up as Darby then LARIATS Jack back to ringside! Darby hops the railing, stalks Jack, and he drags Jack into the ring. The fans fire up for “A E DUB! A E DUB!” and the cage closes. But Jack SMACKS Darby with a trash can!
Jack dumps out the can, brings out bright yellow cable, and he learned this one from Rush! Jack CHOKES Darby with the cord, then wedges the can into a corner. Jack stalks Darby, stomps him, then hauls him up to LAWN DART Darby into the trash can! Darby flops back and Jack grins. Jack soaks up more heat from Nashville, then brings the trash can back into the corner. Jack RAMS Darby’s head into the can, RAMS him again, then punches the can out and CHUCKS it at the cage. Jack riles the fans up, then soaks up the heat again. Jack goes back for Darby, taunts him, but Darby SPITS at him!

Nick uses a hammer to CHOKE Mark, and Okada CHOKES Bowens with a chain! The Bucks look and behold, they find a table! They put that in the ring, Okada keeps Bowens down and Jack stomps Mark. The Bucks bring the table all the way into the second ring, even as the brawling continues all over. Jack JAMS Mark with a chair, Matt scoops to SLAM Bowens on the table. Okada scoops Bowens and SLAMS him on the table! Matt punches away on Mark, then digs his boot in.
Nick stomps Darby, then Matt mocks the crane stance before he BOOTS Mark down. Nick SHINING WIZARDS Darby, then SHINING WIZARDS Mark! Nick soaks up the heat, Matt rains down fists on Darby, and Okada CLUBS Bowens in No Man’s Land. Jack joins in to mug Bowens, and then the Bucks SMACK Mark with the toolbox itself! Nick mocks the fans rallying, but Mark ROCKS Nick! Mark fires off fast hands, but Matt storms over to stop him. Matt and Mark brawl now, Okada joins in, but Mark fires forearms and chops! Okada doesn’t flinch! Mark CHOPS again, Okada ROCKS and BOOTS and fires off on Mark!
Blood & Guts returns to single picture yet again, and the countdown is back. Team AEW sends Max Caster! He has a mic, but not for rapping! Platinum Max dodges Okada to MIC BOP him! Caster then takes off his chain so he can CHAIN FIST Nick! And CHAIN FIST for Matt! And then one for Jack! Caster whips Nick hard into steel! And he SMACKS Jack with a chair! Caster goes up a corner, aims at Okada, and the fans fire up for Caster’s FLYING CHAIR SHOT!! The fans are thunderous as Caster then goes looking for things. Bowens SMACKS Okada for himself, and Darby CHOKES the Rainmaker for good measure.
Caster brings out a board covered in barbed wire! The fans fire up as Caster places that down, then he and Bowens bring Okada up. DOUBLE SUPLEX- NO, Jack & Nick make the save! The fans boo but Nick fires off on Bowens, Jack is after Caster! Jack TOSSES Caster, The Bucks whip Bowens into a corner. Then they DOUBLE HIP TOSS Bowens onto the barbed wire board! Bowens writhes and rises up, only for Matt to scoop SLAM him on the board!! The fans are cringing, but Matt brings out a second barbed wire board! Matt presses that down onto Bowens for the world’s most violent sandwich! Nick then climbs up, to SWANTON BOMB!!
The fans lose their minds while Bowens writhes from being turned into a violent panini! But wait, now Okada has brought out something. It’s a mysterious black bag! And out pours so many thumbtacks! Okada shoves those tacks into Caster’s mouth! Then The Bucks pump up their special edition Reeboks! Jack holds Caster in place for the DOUBLE SUPERKICKS!! Caster sputters, coughing up tacks, and Nick says, “Yo, listen! He ain’t rappin’ anymore!” The countdown returns, and The Elite is complete now that Hangman Page is here! At least, he should be here. The Bucks wait, but The Black Hat isn’t coming?
Darby and Mark fight back on Jack and the Bucks! Okada fights with Caster but Mark goes after Okada! Darby COFFIN SPALSHES Nick, COFFIN SPLASHES Matt, repeat! Then Darby sends Nick into Matt, to then feed Nick to Mark for a CORNER EXPLODER! Mark BOOTS Jack, Caster stands to stand on Nick’s neck! Bowens wraps barbed wire around his leg!? Caster opens Nick up, Bowens goes up, and despite the pain he’s causing himself, he still BARBED WIRE ME TIMBERS!! Nick experiences his own painful scissoring, and the fans are thunderous for “A E DUB! A E DUB!” while Mark puts the barbed wire boards aside.
The countdown is back, and that means Swerve is now here! Prince Nana gets everyone dancing as the AEW World Champion makes his way out, but NOW Hangman is here! Hangman CLOBBERS Swerve from behind with a chair! Swerve is his only target so now Hangman has a reason to fight! Hangman fires fists on Swerve, then brings out handcuffs!! Hangman cuffs Swerve to the side of the cage! Swerve tries to fight back but Hangman fires hands! Mark fireman’s carries Matt but Matt CLAWs Mark’s eyes! Matt is free, and Okada SHOTGUNS Mark into the barbed wire boards! Mark is already bleeding from one side, will he be bleeding from his back now?
Hangman cuffs Swerve’s other arm to the cage, Swerve is defenseless! But Nana hurries to fight Hangman! Hangman DECKS Nana, and then snatches the title belt. Hangman says Swerve has never deserved this title, it should never have been Swerve’s! Then Hangman CLOBBERS Swerve with the belt! Hangman fires hands on Swerve, and says he will eat Swerve alive! Hangman just hammers away with haymakers. The Bucks DOUBLE POWERBOMB Mark onto barbed wire! But then Matt gets a mic to shout at Hangman, “What are you doing?!” Hangman, look at Matt! They had a deal! And a deal is a deal, Hangman!
Last time, The Bucks suspended Hangman and he sat at home. But now, if Hangman doesn’t get in the ring, he is FIRED. Hangman hears that, and he leaves Swerve behind to step into the ring. Nick locks the cage so no one else can get in or out. The refs say no, all ten men have to be inside first. Matt says who cares? He’s an EVP, just do what he says! The bell rings so that Blood & Guts can “officially begin.” Jack goes after Bowens, Hangman argues with Matt, but Okada steps in. The Cowboy and the Rainmaker argue, and Okada shoves Hangman! But then Darby and Mark rush up! Darby jumps on Hangman while Mark fires hands on Matt!
Caster rises up, he CLUBS away on Okada! Bowens turns things around on Jack! Mark rains fists on Matt, Swerve fights and he already has one arm free. Swerve works to get the other arm free, but Blood & Guts goes picture in picture.
Caster JAMS Nick up with the Rainmaker Drive sign, Mark SMACKS Hangman with what’s left off a barbed wire board, but Nick CHUCKS trash can at Darby! Mark CLUBS away on Hangman, Okada JAMS Bowens with a crutch, and Hangman fights up. Matt runs to SHOTGUN the trash can into Caster’s head! Nick brings that can around to SMACK Darby with it. Okada CHOKES Bowens with the crutch while The Bucks taunt Swerve. Mark and Hangman brawl, Bowens SMACKS Okada with the crutch! Mark fireman’s carries Hangman for a DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! Mark then hurries up a corner! FROGGY-BOW, onto knees!
Mark writhes, The Bucks continue to taunt Swerve, but Bowens scoop SLAMS Okada onto Hangman! Matt whips Caster to a corner, sends Nick in, but Caster TOSSES Nick! Matt runs in but Caster TOSSES him, too! But then the Bucks DOUBLE GIRI Caster! Okada Alabama Lifts Caster for a REVERSE NECKBREAKER! Jack FROG SPLASHES! Jack bounces off the cover, but The Elite keep Caster down. Blood & Guts returns to single picture one more time, and Bowens fights back. The Bucks knock him over, and wait! Jeff Jarrett is storming out here?! Karen, Sonjay & Lethal try to stop him, but he and his guitar are going to ringside!
Wait, here comes Brandon Cutler to stop Jarrett. The EVP’s little sidekick says don’t even dare getting involved! But wait, here comes Daddy Ass! Billy Gunn grabs Cutler, tells him to “SUCK IT!” then ROCKS him with a right! Jarrett adds the SMASH HIT! Cutler falls, and both Billy and Jarrett free Swerve! The cuffs are tricky, though, but Nana brings out bolt cutters! Team AEW fights The Elite, and the cuffs are off! Nana hands Swerve the bolt cutters to start making a hole in the cage itself! The fans fire up as Swerve is in and he deals out LARIATS for every member of The Elite! DROPKICK for Okada, then an UPPERCUT!
Swerve snapmares Okada, goes up, and FALLING UPPERCUTS! Nick attacks but Swerve slips around to BACKBREAKER, and POWERBOMB into Matt! Jack runs up but Swerve hip tosses him down! Then gator roll and deadlift into the BRAINBUSTER! There are still some tacks on the mat, too! But now, Hangman and Swerve lock eyes. The fans are losing their minds seeing these two head for No Man’s Land. Both men step inside, and they fire off haymakers! The fans erupt again as Swerve gets the edge with shots high and low! But Hangman dodges one to LARIAT Swerve into the second ring!
Hangman aims, slingshot and BUCK- NO, Swerve catches the lariat to arm-drag Hangman, shift around, but Hangman kicks free of the armbar! Hangman has a piece of board, and he DIGS the barbed wire into Swerve’s forehead! Swerve pushes the board back, and Darby hops onto Hangman for CODE RED! Okada FLAPJACKS Darby! Okada looks around, The Elite regroup with him, and they DOUBLE SUPERKICK Mark! But Mark rebounds to DOUBLE LARIAT The Bucks! Jack GERMAN SUPLEXES Mark! Swerve somersault COMPLETE SHOTS Jack! Okada stomps Bowens but Bowens hits back!
The fans are thunderous as The Acclaimed regroup. They clear some space, and Swerve brings a staple gun! Swerve stalks Hangman and wants to bring this back to Texas Death! Hangman fights off the stapler, and Nick LOW BLOWS Swerve! Matt finally opens that metal briefcase, and inside are more staple guns! The Elite is armed and dangerous now! Swerve stands his ground but that’s 4v1! Jack STAPLES Swerve from behind, and then so does Nick! Matt and Okada join in, they staple Swerve from all sides! The fans boo, but Swerve is laughing?! The fans say they’re all sickos! Nick runs up, Swerve blocks his staple attack!
Matt kicks, Swerve blocks that, and he makes Nick STAPLE Matt! Then Swerve makes Nick sit on the top rope, then STAPLES his forehead! Jack runs up, into a BACKBREAKER and STAPLE!

Swerve revels in the energy from Nashville, then he goes up top. KILL- NO, Hangman avoids the stomps! Swerve goes out after Hangman as Hangman crawls out through the hole in the cage! Swerve BOOTS Hangman, they brawl up the ramp and then to the stage! Swerve brings Hangman around into a SLEEPER! They go around the back of the tunnel, and then FALL OFF THE STAGE! They crash down through spare tables!! Matt hurries out of the cage and up the ramp, asking what the heck, but Bowens is in pursuit! Bowens ROCKS Matt, ROCKS him again, and brings him back to the ring. Caster and Nick join in, Nick SMACKS Caster with a trash can lid!
Nick SMACKS Bowens with a trash can lid! Nick goes to his brother’s side, and the Bucks go grab a table! They bring that table around to the side while Darby fires hands on Jack. The Bucks set up two tables side by side on the outside here. Mark brawls with Okada, and Blood & Guts goes to break.
Blood & Guts returns and tables have appeared in the ring, but The Bucks have constructed a double decker on the outside! Bowens has been put in between all those tables, and Nick says it’s time! Nick climbs up, Matt holds Bowens down, but Caster CLUBS Matt! Caster whips Matt into barriers! Bowens climbs up after Nick now and Nick panics! Nick kicks away on Bowens, CLUBS him, but Bowens hits back! Nick SMACKS Bowens off steel! And again! Bowens wobbles, but Nick SMACKS him again! Bowens falls through all the tables!!

Nick returns, but Mark has him, too! JAY DRILLER!!! Darby puts Jack on a table, and Mark fires hands on Matt. Mark puts Matt on a table, Darby SMACKS Jack with a kendo stick! Mark goes up, FROGGY-BOW on Matt through the table!! Darby goes up, to then climb the truss and even Spider-Man up to the beams up above! Darby hangs over Jack like a bat, before a SUPER DUPER COFFIN DROP!!! Jack writhes while fans lose their minds all over again!
Caster returns into the ring, he brings the case over, and he opens it up. This one has handcuffs!? Caster hands those over to Mark, and Mark uses those to cuff Jack to the steel! Caster keeps Matt down, then he hands a kendo stick to Mark! Mark SMACKS Jack! Jack refuses to give up so Mark SMACKS him again! Mark wants Jack to say it, but Jack shakes his head. So another SMACK and the kendo stick breaks! Jack SPITS in Mark’s face! Darby has a mic to say if Jack’s not gonna quit, then let’s get the party started. The fans fire up hearing that, and Darby goes looking under the ring. Darby goes way under there…
Mark meanwhile HEAD SHOTS Jack with his own Scapegoat chair!! Jack sputters, but he refuses to give in! Mark tells Jack to just say it. Jack refuses, so Mark aims at Matt, who is also cuffed. Mark says you hit the EVP, you’re good as done! Caster SMACKS Okada off steel, and Darby returns with an OIL CAN AND LIGHTER!! The fans are losing their minds, Mark is also panicking, but Darby storms right up to Jack. Darby douses Jack with gasoline, a throwback to Anarchy in the Arena! Darby smirks as he says he is gonna light Jack on fire if he doesn’t quit. Jack doesn’t think he’s serious, but he should remember back to Anarchy in the Arena…
For that matter, Darby wants a TNT Championship match at All In! Agree to that, or Darby lights Jack on fire! Mark is freaking out, but Jack is defiant to the end! Matt talks with Darby, saying that as an EVP, he can make this happen! Matt says if Darby wants the match, then it is done! But let’s stop, this has gone too far! Darby says hell no. Matt has to say it, or Jack’s lit on fire. Matt says fine! The Elite quit! The Elite quit!! The bell rings, Team AEW wins!!
Winners: Team AEW, by surrender
Darby smiles at Jack and points to the All In sign. The Scapegoat was saved by The Bucks, but will he be able to survive the Relentless One in Wembley? Or will Darby once again be the Face of TNT?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here, and I appreciate that since it was Blood & Guts night, they kept it to more matches than talking, and even then we had fewer matches since Blood & Guts itself was the whole second hour. Good opening promo stuff with Ospreay and MJF, but I’m a little torn with what MJF is up to. Converting the International Championship into the American Championship is what NJPW just did with the United States Championship becoming the United Kingdom Championship becoming the Global Championship, it just needs Moxley being in here. But I do have to admit, the American Championship looks so good, I kinda want MJF just to establish that since AEW loves having a ton of belts anyway.
And another complicated detail is that Pac is #1 contender to said American/International Championship. Will he have to use his title shot at Battle of the Belts this weekend? Or will he “talk with Tony Khan” and make things a Triple Threat, so that Pac essentially takes the Moxley role? Either option seems a shame for Pac, because he isn’t winning the title in either scenario. No title ever changes hands on a Battle of the Belts special, and I recall Moxley taking the loss to Finlay in that Global Championship story so Pac would probably take the loss in this International/American Championship story.
Jericho VS Suzuki was a great match, especially with how many chops were thrown. They didn’t even need to go as extreme as FTW Rules allow because everyone loved the chop-a-thon. Jericho winning made sense, and I’d say Suzuki being able to get back up doesn’t make sense after he got hit by Judas Effect, but it was of course to bring out Bill & Keith. And then Bill & Keith were for bringing Shibata out and Shibata getting some semblance of revenge. Jericho VS Shibata for the FTW Championship one more time could be a great Battle of the Belts match, though, so I hope they do it.
Great match from Britt VS Shida, and of course a great win for Britt. Mone showing up was a given, as was her refusing to face Britt. Kamille showing up was a great surprise, and she’s already jumping right into a great story being Mone’s muscle. I have a feeling Britt will have to beat Kamille to get her shot at the TBS Championship. Really good promo from Willow, Stokely and Kris in that it was just an ambush by Stokely & Kris. Willow VS Kris as an Eliminator will be great stuff, and I have a feeling Kris wins that to then set up the title match, possibly for All In to keep the Forbidden Door vibes going.
Great promo segment Bryan and Jarrett, and I like Jarrett encouraging Bryan to make sure he’s 100% for All In. Great stuff with Mariah May and Toni Storm, especially the double swerve for Storm to make her appearance. This adds some great heat to their title match, and I still can’t be sure who wins. Good promo from The Patriarchy, and with the Royal Rampage returning to set up a world championship match for AEW Grand Slam in late September, just about anyone can come out of that the winner. It probably won’t be Nick Wayne or Kip Sabian, though. Though, Nick does have beef with Swerve so it isn’t completely impossible.
And great promos to hype up Blood & Guts. The Elite beating up Christopher Daniels was an interesting detail, but of course The Elite cheats by having a rigged coin. Mark Briscoe helping iron out the dysfunction in Team AEW was good stuff, too, because Darby and Swerve also have beef that dates back a long time. Blood & Guts itself was awesome, and this was certainly one of the grittier Blood & Guts matches. Good use of references back to other hardcore matches, from the Rainmaker Drive sign to the staple guns.
Though admittedly, B&G requiring a submission or surrender kinda forces them to drag stuff out. Many times, a pin would’ve surely won, but doing away with pins means no one has to worry about being too tired to kick out or missing a cue to break up a cover. That aside, Swerve and Hangman taking each other out with that stage spot was not expected, but I did appreciate the dysfunction between Hangman and the rest of The Elite beforehand. Hangman and Okada should definitely have it out for the Continental Championship at some point, though.
Jack VS Darby for the TNT title at All In was a given, but Darby threatening immolation was an unorthodox way to get there. And I feel like there’s going to be dysfunction now between Jack and the Bucks. Jack’s whole thing is sacrifice, yet Matt wasn’t willing to watch him be burned head to toe just for a match. Jack could use this to become even darker and crazier than The Bucks ever were and he could go rogue from The Elite.
My Score: 9/10

Zero Hour – Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara & Holo.grm VS The Premier Athletes w/ Mark Sterling!
“Smart” Mark stops Arkady Aura from even starting as he introduces his team of Josh Woods, Tony Nese & Ariya Daivari.

A great debut on Rampage for Hologram, a great win overall for the ROH World Tag Team Champions, will they keep this going until they’re dripping with gold?
The Bang Bang Gang speaks.
Juice Robinson says here’s the thing about the AEW Trios Division: You need momentum on your side. You ain’t gonna get the job done with a win here and there. You need to string ’em together, snowball effect. W after W after W! Austin says chill. They all want W’s, but there is something serious to address. Austin still doesn’t have a nickname! They’ve got Fully Cocked Colten Gunn! Rock Hard Juice Robinson! And… What do they have for Austin? Colten thinks on it. But in steps The Cage of Agony. Bishop Kaun says he has an idea: Ass Boy Austin! Oh, clever, clever. No right, here’s one: Runner Up in the Top Prospect Tournament!
Wow, that was a long time ago, Kaun. Not relevant. The Machine says there has to be a better one. Kaun has it now: Nepo Baby. What? Like he’s got a famous mom or something? Kaun says okay, no, this is the best: Former AEW World Trios Champion. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s just everyone here right now. Colten says that’s tough talk coming from the team that lost the ROH World Six Man titles to them. Cage says hey, Colten, you might be a “body guy” compared to the rest of this roster, but stepping to The Machine, watch your tone. Shake weights don’t count, Cage. Cage says the only reason Bang Bang Gang won cuz they had six guys at the time!
Nowadays, the three Bang Bang Gang won’t beat The Cage of Agony. Then let’s find out! If you’re not down with that, they have two words for ya! GUNS- Wait! The Cage of Agony block the finger guns! They clap their hands and say, “Gates, OPEN!” Toa Liona roars, Juice roars back, sorta. Will the Collision Cowboys be able to bring down these three behemoths? Or will they be caught inside The Cage of Agony?
BREAKING NEWS!
Lexy Nair says for the Zero Hour, there will be a TRIOS TRIPLE THREAT! Standing by are two of the three teams, Top Flight Crew’s Darius, Dante & Action, and Shane Taylor Promotions with Beast Mortos. But then the third team can be heard coming as Roderick Strong shouts “BEEEEAST!” Roddy thought Mortos was Kingdom! Shane says Mortos followed the money, so can he help them? Matt Taven says Mortos hasn’t learned the value of a dollar! Mike Bennett says Shane can’t help them, but they can help Shane, because surprise, guess who the third team is? Yeah, it’s The Kingdom. And there’s a BIG winner’s purse put on this one.
Not that it’s going to more matching outfits, Top Flight. The Kingdom leaves, Action says check it. In the end, it doesn’t matter whose side The Beast is on, it won’t be the winning side. And Top Flight IS. They will fly home with that guac. CHACHING~! So buckle up. Lee Moriarty has Shane and Mortos calm down. Will #TAIGASTYLE have just the plan to come away with that big money cash prize?
Friday Night Fashion Fight: The MXM Collection VS The House of Black!
It’s hard to say there are any rules outside the norm for this match, other than to dress to impress. Will Mansoor & Mason Madden prove that no matter what, they’re always the best dressed in the locker room? Or will Brody King & Buddy Matthews give them a makeover involving bruises, lacerations and hospital gowns?
Wait, who is this weirdo in the trash bag and oversized wood sandals? Why is he being carried out here? These are the judges for this Fashion Fight?! Well, what do you expect from modern fashion these days? Anyway, the teams sort out, and the Iron Chic starts against the Aussie Juggernaut. The fans bark for the House of Black, and Mansoor dodges Buddy. Mansoor struts, POSES, and calls for a score. Tens across the board! Buddy scowls, waistlocks, Mansoor switches, but Buddy switches. Mansoor switches again, shoves, and POSES! Another score of tens across the board! Feels like they’re a bit biased, though…
Buddy and Mansoor tie up, Mansoor waistlocks, Buddy switches, but Mansoor ELBOWS free! Mansoor runs, sunset flips, but Buddy stays up! Buddy drags Mansoor up, TOSSES him, then blocks a boot!

Mansoor headlocks, Buddy powers out, and they RAM shoulders! Buddy doesn’t budge, and he headlocks for a takeover! Mansoor headscissors, Buddy kips free, then he avoids the sweep. Buddy headlocks, Mansoor powers up and out, but Buddy CLOBBERS him!
Mansoor gets up, Buddy blocks the kick and FLIPS Mansoor! Mansoor scrambles away, asks for a score, and Buddy gets a total of 4! Mansoor says he is still better than Buddy, and he tags Mason in.

Mansoor RIPS that seven, and finds the “YOU SUCK” one among them!
But then Mansoor turns around, and Brody CROSSBODIES them all!! That’s a ten, as in, a STRIKE! The fans fire up as Brody holds up the ten! Mason runs up but Buddy FLYING KNEES him down! Mason is in a daze, Buddy holds up the ten, and Rampage goes picture in picture.

Talk about “Brutal fashion,” this was a victory as beautiful as it was vicious! Brody & Buddy proved #TheHouseAlwaysWins, but will they win their way back to title opportunities?
Will Ospreay speaks.
“I have been asked all day today, ‘How you feelin’, Will? You feelin’ alright?’ I dunno how you feel when you’ve taken a Poison-Rana on the stage and a brainbuster on some stage carts, mate, but yeah, hunky dury. I’m feeling great. I’m feeling great to cut these ties that bind myself to Pac. That’s history, right? See, Pac, everybody might know you as The Bastard right now, or maybe they know you as The Man Gravity Forgot. I know you as a UK backyard wrestler. You see, I could say words to you right now that’d perk your ears up that no one else knows. I could say stuff like Steve Farrow. I could say stuff like NAW.
“Because I’ve walked in your shoes. When I walked into that territory that you left, they’d say, ‘Man, you’re good. You ain’t Pac.’ They said the same thing on the UK independents. They said, ‘You’re good, but you’re not Pac.'” Ospreay made them all eat their words, and then he walked on the bridge Pac built, from England to Japan. Pac paved the way for him and Ospreay is thankful. But when Ospreay walked in there, they also said, “You’re good, but you’re not Pac.” Ospreay has been chasing Pac, and five years ago, Pac was Dragon Gate Dream Gate Champion, and Ospreay was NEVER Openweight Champion, and they didn’t get a decision. It was a 30 minute time limit draw.
You think Ospreay is satisfied with that? Nah, bruv! Ospreay’s still been chasing Pac! And here it is. Without even realizing it, Ospreay has lapped Pac. When Pac hit that rana, and Ospreay heard that crappy northern accent, “Don’t you underestimate me.” You thought Ospreay forgot? Nah, bruv. Ospreay could never forget Pac. Not all the work Pac’s done, not all the history they have. No one has forgotten about Pac. He just has been in this position so many times, we’ve lost faith. Wanna change it? Then there’s 24 hours left, bruv. These two may not have had their Wembley Moment together, but who walks away having won THE moment?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage as part of the go-home night to All Out, though they of course accommodated the bleed over from Collision. Good stuff, already talked about it all for the Collision article, and I also touched on Moxley & Marina jumping The Outrunners with that article, too. It was easy heat for Moxley & Marina beating up on The Outrunners, who just had their big moment, but Moxley touched on not celebrating mediocrity and being humble in victory. Darby Allin will probably respond by saying this is just Moxley being a bully. Anyway, good win for Aminata, and Deeb watching her sets up how they’ll be feuding soon enough.
Good promo of Bang Bang Gang and Cage of Agony, and they’ll have a very good match, probably naming the winners the #1 contenders to the World Trios Championships. More than I can say for Premier Athletes. What business do Nese, Daivari & Woods have watching Dustin & Sammy like they’re gonna get any of the ROH titles off them? Nese, Daivari & Woods lose to all sorts of established names, Dustin, Sammy & The Von Erichs will be no different. But still a really good, really fun Six Man Tag of Dustin, Sammy & Hologram beating Dark Order. Dark Order really is a trio that should’ve been given more, but oh well.
Good promo segment from Kingdom, STP and Top Flight, with another of these kayfabe’d money prize matches happening just because. Like, title opportunities not being won here? I know Roddy is waiting to go after the FTW Championship, but why not have him & The Kingdom try to move up from ROH titles to AEW titles in this match? Though, Top Flight might be right. They won that $3000 trios royale thing a year or so ago, they might win this one so that they keep making money and building their budget for more airline pilot gimmick gear.
And while I was expecting a fashion show themed Street Fight, I suppose judges giving scores was good enough of a gag for this match. The fashion themed Street Fight would’ve probably been better, though. But the House of Black would’ve won out anyway, so best to do it in a standard rules match. And then a great promo from Ospreay to properly frame this feud with Pac. I do wish they would’ve let this be the All In match but whatever, this will still be a show stealer of a match for All Out. But as I said for Collision, and even Dynamite on Wednesday, Pac has been standing tall so the math favors Ospreay retaining the title.
My Score: 8.7/10
