Street Fight: Mia Yim VS Jaida Parker!
Things have escalated between Michin and Miss Parker ever since the NXT Women’s North American Championship was created, and now neither is going to hold back! But will Mia remind us why she’s the Head Baddie in Charge? Or will Jaida show why she runs these streets?
Jaida has a baseball bat, but Mia is bringing a trash can of goodies with her for her entrance! Jaida rushes out there to get Mia, but Mia uses the can as a shield! The bell rings, Mia CHOPS Jaida, then fires a forearm! Mia whips Jaida into steel steps! The fans rally and duel, Mia gets herself a pipe and a chair! Mia puts the pipe aside so she can also get a kendo stick! Mia brings out more chairs, and even a toolbox! Mia goes back to her can to bring out a chain, and a sock? She puts chain in sock, time for some madball!
Jaida finally gets up, swings on Mia but Mia fires back! Mia shoves Jaida down, then SLINGS the sock! Jaida dodges then CHOPS! And CHOPS! Jaida SMACKS Mia off the apron but Mia returns the favor! Mia puts Jaida in the ring, then keeps looking for more plunder! Mia puts in another kendo stick, then a trash can lid. Then a second trash can! Mia tosses it in but Jaida avoids getting canned. Jaida then SMACKS Mia with the lid! And SPANKS her! Jaida whips Mia to KNEE her low, then whips to KNEE her again! Jaida fireman’s carries for a SAMOAN DROP! Cover, TWO! Jaida hurries to get a kendo stick, and she swings!
Mia dodges, the stick hits ropes, then Mia GERMAN SUPLEXES Jaida! The fans fire up as Mia takes off her yellow leather belt! Time to go old school! She SPANKS Jaida with the belt again and again! Then LASHES her on the back! Mia gets the toolbox, moves that aside, and then wedges a trash can into a corner. Jaida runs up, Mia dodges and Jaida’s knee hits can! Jaida still kicks Mia, then puts her in the ropes! Jaida CHOPS Mia, then runs up, to DROP IT LIKE IT’S HOT on the trash can!! Cover, TWO! Mia survives but Jaida just DROPKICKS her out of the ring! Jaida keeps moving, and she slides, only for Mia to dodge! Then Mia CHUCKS that sock!!
Mia JAMS Jaida with the chair, POSTS her, then snarls as she gets a chair. Mia sits it up by ringside, and then sets another chair beside it. Mia adds a third, but Jaida SMACKS Mia with a fourth! Jada then suplexes Mia, but Mia fights it! Mia wrenches, HOOK KICKS, and Jaida takes a seat. Mia CHOPS Jaida, clears some space in the ring, and she builds speed. The fans fire up as Mia DIVES, but only gets chair!! Mia only gets steel to the face! Mia goes to barriers, Jaida runs, but Mia moves! Jaida crashes through barriers!! The fans are losing their minds as NXT goes picture in picture!
Jaida gets out of the wreckage, Mia storms over, and Mia puts Jaida in the ring. Mia then storms around, and she politely asks Vic Joseph if she can have the candy. He says yes, and she brings the whole box into the ring. Mia SMACKS Jaida with the box! Mia then scoops Jaida to SLAM her on the candy! Mia then goes back to her original trash can, to bring out an extra long chain! Mia brings that chain with her, throws the candy to the fans, then goes back for Jaida. Jaida KNEES Mia low, reels her in, and snap suplexes her to the floor! Jaida blames Vic for the candy stuff, then she puts Mia in the ring.
Jaida brings out another chair, pushes it in the ring, then gets another. Jaida is busy looking for more stuff but Mia goes to the toolbox. Mia works to open it up while Jaida keeps adding chairs. Jaida even takes the chairs from earlier and puts those in. Jaida stomps Mia, grabs the toolbox, and the two tug-o-war over it. But then Jaida SLAMS the lid on Mia’s fingers! And STOMPS the box! Mia gets her possibly broken fingers free, and Jaida starts bringing out hammers and wrenches! Jaida CHOKES Mia with a wrench! Then she uses a socket to pull on Mia’s fingers! Mia endures, so Jaida uses the claw of a hammer to fishhook her!
NXT returns to single picture as Mia suffers! Mia grabs the little sledge to JAM Jaida up! Jaida lets go, Mia grabs herself a new madball! Mia SMACKS Jaida in the stomach! And then Mia arranges the chairs into a pile, and reveals the madball was NUTS ‘N’ BOLTS!! The fans are going nuts, Mia underhooks Jaida! PACKAGE- NO, Jaida powers out and BACKDROPS Mia onto the nuts ‘n’ chairs!! Cover, TWO?!? Mia survives and no one can believe it! Jaida hurries to run, but Mia SMACKS her with a kendo stick! And SMACKS her again! And again! And again, and again, and again! Jaida writhes in a corner while the fans fire up!
Mia gets a trash can, stalks Jaida, and puts the can around her! Mia SMACKS the can with the wrench, then clears out some space again. Mia runs up, to TRASH CAN-NONBALL! Cover, TWO!!! Jaida survives and Mia can’t believe it! Jaida flops out of the ring, but Mia hurries out the side, bringing the pipe! But Jaida FIRE EXTINGUISHER BLASTS Mia! Then she TEARDROP HIP ATTACKS Mia through a wall!!! The fans are again losing their minds as both women are under the perch! Jaida drags herself and Mia out of the wreckage, then back to ringside. Jaida puts Mia in, reloads, and TEARDROPS!! Cover, Jaida wins!
Winner: Jaida Parker, by pinfall
Jaida wanted this fight, and she got a fight! But she also won this fight, putting her entire body on the line. She still runs these streets, but will NXT soon belong to Miss Parker?
Arianna Grace sighs.
She sulks in the locker room, with only Karmen Petrovic there to hear her. So Arianna sighs harder. Karmen can’t ignore this obvious cry for attention, and she asks what’s wrong. Arianna says it’s nothing. She doesn’t wanna talk about it. But since she asked, she may as well get it off her chest. Karmen sits with Arianna, and Arianna says Sol snatched Arianna’s soul, and her heart, because now she’s not going to Heatwave. And surely Karmen knows this, but Arianna is from Toronto. Her people were dying to see her and now they’ll be devastated. Karmen tries not to laugh, and she says she understands. She’s also from Toronto.
Arianna means this lovingly, but Karmen isn’t as Canadian as Arianna. How is that a thing? But then in step Jacy Jayne & Jazmyn Nyx, mockingly applauding. They didn’t realize they’d be walking into a pity party. Who is more pathetic? The delusional one or the loner? No Natty, no friends. Karmen says she’s already told people this, but she belongs here. So if they have an issue, let’s fix it. Jazmyn & Jacy laugh that off, then leave. Karmen says this cannot keep happening. What will it take for the real-life Beatrix Kiddo to get some respect around here?
Je’Von Evans speaks.
“This my first PLE, and I’m in the main event? Yo, this is crazy!” The Young OG won the battle royal, and Heatwave’s gonna get bouncy. Je’Von’s never even left the country, he’s gotta get a passport just for this! People asked if he was upset this was no longer a 1v1 match with Trick Williams, but c’mon. He’ll still wrestle in front of the biggest crowd he’s ever seen before. He ain’t afraid of Shawn Spears, he ain’t afraid of Ethan. He isn’t even afraid of Trick, that’s all love, even with the title on the line. But Je’Von does plan on coming back across the border the NEW NXT Champion.
Kelani Jordan speaks.
“All my life, I wanted my name to be in record books. But for my name to be written in them, I had to work like a champion. All I know is structure. A one-track mind. But… It’s produced results. Five-time Junior Olympic national qualifier. Second overall in the nation on floor. Full-ride scholarship to Michigan State University. Three-time MVP, three-time team captain, nominee for NCAA Athlete of the Year, and now… The first-ever Women’s North American Champion. Pressure comes with being a champion, especially being the first. But no one is going to defend this title like Lani.
“Being a gymnast, no accolade can be taken away from me. But this title can be. Sol Ruca has everything to be a champion. She’s an unparalleled athlete who deserves this match. But like Michael Jordan said, ‘Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, and others make it happen. At NXT Heatwave, Lani’s gonna make it happen.” The Stand Out is ready to stand tall, but will she make it through the Heatwave? Or will she be washed away by Sol’s wave of momentum?
Hank ‘n’ Tank VS New Catch Republic!
Hank Walker & Tank Ledger missed out on the Tag Team Turmoil, but they understand why. They still have a long way to go until they’re a top team in NXT, but will taking on one of the best tag teams in the whole WWE help them prove themselves? Or will Tyler Bate & Pete Dunne just use the Blue Collar Brawlers as rebounds from losing the gauntlet?
NXT returns and Hank ‘n’ Tank make their entrance. The teams sort out, Hank starts against Bate and the two tie up. Hank wrenches, wristlocks, but Bate rolls and rolls and gets loose. The two shake hands and the fans rally up. Hank pumps up and wants a test of strength. Bate obliges, they knuckle lock, and then go shoulder to shoulder. Hank uses his height to push Bate but Bate bridges. Hank gets a cover, TWO as Bate bridges! Hank hops on, but Bate stays up! He’s the Big Strong Boi for a reason! Bate then powers back up to his feet, rolls back, and he headscissors Hank to go up and up and wave to fans, for the RANA!
The fans fire up, Bate headlocks Hank and tags Dunne. Bate hammerlocks Hank while Dunne CHOPS him. And CHOPS again! Dunne wrenches an arm, clamps onto the shoulder, then steps over. But Hank lifts Dunne up! Dunne sunset flips, TWO! Dunne headlocks, Hank powers out while tagging Tank! Tank CLOBBERS Dunne! The fans fire up as Hank ‘n’ Tank pump it up, and BODY PRESS SANDWICH Dunne! Hank ‘n’ Tank fire up and the fans are with them! Tank storms up on Dunne but Dunne SLAPS him! Dunne wrenches an arm, grinds the shoulder, and he puts Tank on the mat, to STOMP the hand!
Tank flounders away, Bate tags in. Dunne wrenches the arm, STOMPS it again, then Bate KNEE-BOARD SENTONS! Bate keeps on Tank with a whip to the corner Tank goes up to FLYING SHOULDER! The fans fire up as Tank reels Bate in. But it’s Bate who suplexes Tank! Tank scrambles away, hot tag to Hank! Hank runs up, blocks a boot, but Bate reels him in for a KNEE! Bate goes up and leaps, but Hank gets under. Bate turns around, Bop up, BANG! Fireman’s carry, AIRPLANE SPIN! The fans fire up as Hank goes around and around and around, TEN and SLAM! Bate then kips up and poses! The fans cheer while NXT goes to break.
NXT returns and Dunne drags Tank up. Dunne kicks Tank around, but Tank fires body shots! Dunne SMACKS Tank down, then stays between him and Hank. The fans rally but Dunne STOMPS Tank’s hands! Tank goes to ropes, Dunne gets him back up to KICK him around. Dunne stomps Tank, eggs him on, then paces. Tank crawls, rises up, and fans rally. Dunne BOOTS Tank, CLUBS him down, then runs up again. Tank dodges the boot to full nelsons! BUBBA BOMB! Hot tag to Hank! Hank runs up to LARIAT Dunne! Hank whips Dunne to a corner, runs in and SPLASHES! Dunne sits down but Hank YANKS him up!
Hank swings Dunne to SNAKE EYES, and BOOT! Hank sees Bate get in, wheelbarrow turns into a SLAM onto Dunne! Off comes the shirt and Hank powers up! Dunne rises, Hank fireman’s carries, but Dunne swings through to get a TRIANGLE HOLD! Hank stays on his feet, deadlifts Dunne back up, and Tank tags in to then climb up! Hank finishes lifting Dunne, LARIAT POWERBOMB COMBO! Cover, BATE BREAKS IT! The fans fire up and Hank storms up. Bate CHPOS, ROCKS and repeat, but Hank knees low! Hank whips Bate, scopos and tosses him, but Bate RANAS Tank! Bate then RANAS Hank!
Bate builds speed and he DIVES, but Hank ‘n’ Tank catch him! They APRON BOMB him on Dunne! Hank sits Bate & Dunne up so that he and Tank can both run! They DOUBLE BODY CHECK New Catch Republic! Tank puts Dunne in, tags Hank, but Dunne ENZIGIRIS Tank! Dunne BOOTS Hank, fires up, and runs in. Hank sends Dunne to Tank, POUNCE GERMAN SUPLEX COMBO!! Cover, TWO!! Dunne survives and Hank can’t believe it! Hank goes to a corner, climbs up, and the fans rally. Dunne is up, Hank leaps, into a KNEE!! Hot tag to Bate, hot tag to Tank! Tank runs in, Dunne dodges and Bate GAMANGIRIS!
Dunne wrenches Tank’s arm, SNAPS fingers, Bate REBOUNDER LARIATS! Dunne DOUBLE STOMPS Hank on the outside! Bate is up top, SKY TWISTER!! Cover, New Catch Republic wins!
Winners: New Catch Republic, by pinfall
Hank ‘n’ Tank may not have won against one of the best teams, but they proved they’re on their way! The teams show respect to each other, will we see them run this back one day?
Shawn Spears speaks.
“I returned to NXT to guide. To lead this very talented but inexperienced and young crop of talent. I wanted to share my wealth of knowledge. But it’s been met with… reluctance. So now I’ll lead by example. This Sunday, I return home to Toronto, and I will reach the pinnacle. Then, the young crop of talent, especially the ones I’ve had my eye on, they will finally see the light. I already put down Je’Von Evans, and I was the first man to pin Trick Williams since he became champion. They will follow my lead, because this Sunday, Ethan Page, Je’Von Evans, Trick Williams, at NXT Heatwave, I will win the NXT Championship.”
Robert Stone & Stevie Turner talk with Oro Mensah.
Suit Man Stone assures Main Man Mensah that their past, with Noam Dar picking on Von Wagner, that’s all behind them. Last week, what a story from Oro! Stevie says yes, so moving! What a story, mate. Stone wonders if there’s an echo in the back. Stevie says no, Stone is just hard of hearing. Sign of old age and all that. Anyway, Oro says they called him here for something, so what is it? Right, right. Good news: Oro is cleared for action! Oro VS Myles Borne! That IS good news. But then Stevie has to give the bad news. What? No, it was supposed to be Stone giving the bad news. Oro tells them to stop arguing and just say what it is!
Stevie says Stone doesn’t have the balls to say it. The thing is, given recent altercations with Ethan Page, Oro is not going to Toronto for Heatwave. Oro says that’s fine, he has a match to focus on. Just keep doing what you’re doing. Oro leaves and Stone argues with Stevie again. “Balls?” Is that any way to talk to talent? He is telling on her! Oh, well, who is the NARC now? The competition of best assistant is heating up, what will it take to put it to rest?
Brinley Reece w/ Malik Blade & Edris Enofe VS Izzi Dame!
#BrinEnergy only ever tries to be her positive self, but the former sidekick to Kiana James always has to be such a buzzkill. Will Brin finally get a win to prove her way works? Or will she find out It Iz What It Iz?
NXT returns and Izzi makes her entrance. The bell rings, Izzi taunts Brin, but Brin runs up. They tie up, Izzi shoves Brin away. They tie up again, Izzi again shoves Brin away. They tie up again, Izzi scoops to SLAM Brin! Brin gets up, but Izzi scops to SWINGING SLAM! Brin flounders to ropes, Izzi stomps away! The ref counts, Izzi lets off, then she covers, TWO! Izzi stalks Brin, reels her in, Canadian Racks for the torture rack! Brin pops free, ELBOWS Izzi, then dodges to fire off forearms! Brin whips, then TACKLES Izzi! And TACKLSE her again! Brin rusn to BODY CHECK Izzi! The fans fire up and Brin runs in.
Izzi steps aside but Brin goes up and up to NIGHTSHADE! Brin keeps moving, handspring and LARIAT! The fans fire up as Izzi bails out, and Brin grabs hair! Iziz drasg Brin out instead, but Brin CHOPS! Brin powers up, but Izzi RAMS her into apron! Tatum Paxley slithers out from the literal hole in the wall!! Tatum sneaks up on Izzi while she puts Brin in.

Brin fireman’s carries, but Izzi slips free and shoves, for a BOOT!
Izzi is mad now, and she gets Brin up. Izzi suplexes Brin, for the FALCON ARROW! Cover, Izzi wins!
Winner: Izzi Dame, by pinfall
Tatum then slithers into the ring and scares Izzi! Izzi isn’t sure what to make of this, why is Izzi the new obsession?
Chase U is now in session.
Andre Chase there is a lot of history in Toronto. Fact check: DIY won the tag team titles, the Street Profits retained theirs, and on July 7th, Chase U becomes the MOTHER EFFIN’ TWO-TIME TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! The class all cheers, but Duke keeps talking with Ridge about something. Chase asks if they wanna share with the class. Duke says he can’t hide it anymore. Their win over The Good Brothers wasn’t clean. What? But they all saw Duke get that pin. Yeah, but Ridge gave an assist that no one asked for! Duke is sorry, but it has to be said. And here’s the photographic proof. Chase opens the envelope and he sees for himself.
Ridge was reaching out to pull Duke forward. Riley says he knew it all along! Ridge knows what this looks like, he is sorry. He was just over the moon when he was given the Chase U shirt. He didn’t want to be part of a group, but part of a family. That is what Chase U has been to him. That is why he also took the hit for Chase in Tag Team Turmoil. No one here is free of mistakes. But Chase must ask Ridge now stays back while the rest go to Toronto. Ridge understands, and he is sorry. Chase dismisses class, and the mood has taken a 180. Will the fortunes of Chase U do the same? Or can they still win this the right way?
Lola Vice is in the ring.
The #1 contender already has a mic, and she says the clock is ticking, Roxanne. It is almost time! So come on out here, since your days are numbered. The Prodigy obliges, but she also has security? Lola can’t believe she shook her that bad. Roxie says no, Lola attacked her, stole the belt and ran away, so these guys are here to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Attacked? Doesn’t she mean knocked Roxie out cold? Then yeah, she did that. Roxie joins Lola in the ring and says to drop the act. Roxie won’t be intimidated. After this Latina Badass vibe, Roxie sees through her. And this Sunday is the most important match of Lola’s career.
Lola says damn right! But Roxie has been watching Lola. In just a few months here, Lola built a bigger name in NXT than she ever did in Bellator. Good for her. Because clearly Lola is not the same woman who cashed in her Breakout contract and screwed Roxie over. By the way, thanks for that, because look where Roxie is now! The fans rally up for Lola but Roxie just smirks. Lola tells Roxie that yes, she is the champion. But whether it is in the ring or in the cage, Lola IS a fighter. The fans cheer that. Is Roxie a fighter? Roxie says that yes, she saw NXT Battleground’s Underground match. Roxie probably couldn’t last two minutes in that with someone like Shayna Baszler.
But the problem is… this won’t be Bellator! This won’t be the Underground! This Sunday is a wrestling match. That means Lola is in Roxie’s world now! A world that Roxie is already a master of. And Lola knows better than anyone that styles make fights. But Roxie wont’ fight Lola’s fight. Lola must wrestle Roxie’s style of match! Lola warns Roxie that she was a fighter before she was born. We all know Roxie’s story about going to Booker T’s Reality of Wrestling, six hours both ways. But Lola hasn’t told HER story. HER story of sacrifice! Lola’s mother was pregnant with her during her own blackbelt test.
And then, Lola became a fourth-degree master in Tae Kwan Do! Lola was training for the Olympics, and she’s emotional as she recalls it. The fans cheer her on to continue. Lola says her mom got sick, and so at 18 years old, Lola changed to MMA to provide for her family. At 20, she was already fighting in Madison Square Garden! Lola’s mother will be watching her on Sunday, and she can’t wait ot call home and tell her, “Mami, I did it!” All the sacrifices they both made will have been worth it! Because Lola will be the NEW NXT Women’s Champion! Roxie is a bit taken aback. She never knew all that.
And Roxie can look at Lola and she sees Lola believes everything she is saying. There’s respect for that. But the reality is, Lola, every single woman here wants to make that same phone call. But when you step in the ring with Roxie with the title on the line, those phone calls are never made. Roxie laughs, and says that every single match, every single win proves why Roxie is the Prodigy! Ask Natty, Jordynne Grace, and Lyra Valkyria why, at just 22 years old, Roxie is already building a legacy here as TWO-TIME NXT Women’s Champion. Lola will not take this title from Roxie, and it is simply unfortunate that Lola’s NXT career was during the Roxie Era.
Roxie is not giving up her title. Not to Lola, not to anyone in that damn locker room! Lola says Roxie doesn’t have to give it, Lola will take it! Roxie hit Lola with her best shot, and Lola smiled. Lola hit Roxie with her best shot, and Roxie woke up without the title. So on Sunday, Lola is one step closer to showing why she is the greatest crossover ever! And on Sunday, when Lola RIPS that title from Roxie, she becomes the FIRST CUBAN AMERICAN Women’s Champion! Lola’s fire is rising, and Roxie can feel it! Her security steps up, too, so Lola URAKENS the biggest one down! Lola says this may be Roxie’s world, but after she knocks Roxie out, she won’t know what world she’s in!
The fans fire up for Lola, but will her passion and drive be enough to dethrone The Prodigy? Or will the ice cold Roxie just put out that Latina Heat?
Ethan Page speaks.
“I rocked the foundation of NXT when I took out Oro Mensah and Noam Dar. I cracked that foundation when I debuted, taking out the NXT Champion, Trick Williams. I’ve been building a reputation for a long time around the world. And now, I’m exactly where I need to be. After Battleground, Trick Williams found out who really was the better man. Then Je’Von Evans found out the same thing when I pinned him in the middle of the ring. Sure, of course I respect fellow Canadian, Shawn Spears. But Shawn, there’s only room for one of us to be THE guy in NXT. And that’s All Ego, baby.
“This Sunday, at Heatwave, I will do what I’ve intended to do since coming to. All Ego Ethan Page will become the NXT Champion.”
No Quarter Catch Crew talks backstage.
Charlie Dempsey tells Myles Borne that the NQCC is the most dominant faction in NXT. Damon Kemp walks in excitedly, wanting to show Charlie the brass knuckles he found. Dempsey knows about these, right? Hey, guys, check this out. Dempsey tells Kemp to stop. What’s wrong with him? Does Kemp think that’s gonna work? Myles, don’t listen to Kemp. Myles! Oh, did he say something? Nah, don’t worry about it. But tonight, Myles’ best friend is his power advantage, so use it. Myles nods, he and Tavion Heights follow Dempsey out, and Kemp says he was just showing off the knuckles. But will Myles prove he’s the guy for the job in taking on Oro Mensah?
Eddy Thorpe DJs a party.
The Alpha Wolf and his brooha style is a big hit. Afterwards, the NXT prospects tell him that was such a good night. Eddy thanks them for coming, but Lexis King walks over. What is this? Some stupid TikTok trend? Dani Palmer points out it’s Eddy spinning. Spinning what? Uh, he DJs on the side. Oh, wow, really? He was behind that crap? Eddy should be ashamed of himself! If there’s one thing The King knows, it is music. And rock ‘n’ roll is where it’s at! Guns ‘n’ Roses, White Snake, Scorpions! Three minute guitar solos and riffs. And even bigger hair. That is what the ladies love. Uh, maybe for “The King,” but the clubs Eddy plays prefer EDM, bass, high energy.
Lexis says nobody actually likes that robot beep boop crap. And they wouldn’t know cool if it slapped them in the face. Well, maybe if Lexis opened his mind and his ears, he could learn a thing or two. Lexis leaves but Eddy says he’s got another gig this Saturday. Dani’s up for it. Will Lexis ever be humbled? Will Eddy have to do it himself?
Oro Mensah w/ The Meta Four VS Myles Borne w/ No Quarter Catch Crew!
After everything Ethan Page did to him and Noam Dar, Oro has been meaning to vent some frustrations. Will Mensah make the Meta Four proud as he gets back in action? Or will Myles do Dempsey proud and show Oro no quarter?
The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, are in a deadlock, but Myles waistlocks. Oro switches but Myles headlocks. Oro rolls to a cover, Myles powers through to stand back up. Myles wrenches and wristlocks Oro, but Oro spins and wrenches through. Myles rolls, wrenches back, but Oro rolls, then handstands to KICK Myles. The fans are torn but Myles storms up. They tie up, Myles spins Oro to ROCK him! Myles eggs Oro on, Oro eggs Myles on back,. Myles swings, misses, and Oro fires off CHOPS and forearms! Oro hits a headlock takeover then rains down fists! Oro thrashes Myles and the fans rally up.

Wes Lee speaks.
“You all know my history with the North American Championship. A tag team competitor who was forced to break out on his own, captured that title, and literally broke my back trying to defend it.” The Cardiac Kid had a passionate speech goodbye, but he also had an equally emotional return. He’s talked about this title so much, it is now an obsession. Wes wants nothing else. He is running full steam, pedal to the metal, ready to bust through the wall that is Oba Femi. Oba is a man who is seemingly incomparable. Sunday is Wes’s first 1v1 title match with Oba, and his last. This title has consumed Wes’s mind for almost two years, he needs this win. If he doesn’t, he doesn’t know what he’ll do.
Oba Femi responds.
Oba tells Wes, “The only reason you are revered as the greatest is because you came before me. I am THE RULER! THE DESTROYER! THE BRINGER OF WAR! I am the mountain that you cannot climb.” Wes is living in the past, but Oba understands why. A decorated champion, his deep connection with the fans, but Wes must understand that the beacon of light he once was is slowly beginning to dim. This is Wes’s last chance. The Cardiac Kid’s last shot to pull it off and reclaim the title that took his career to unforeseen heights. But Wes, Oba is the epitome of dominance. Everyone that has tried has failed.
Wes is great, but he is no different than those men. Oba will not only crush Wes’s body, but his dreams. Both men are ready for a modern day David VS Goliath, but will this go the same as the famous story? Or is Goliath going to win this time?
Gallus is brawling with Tyriek & Tyson!!
Seems neither side wanted to wait for their match! Wolfgang THROWS Tyriek, but Tyson throws things at Mark Coffey! Then Tyson TACKLES Wolfgang into a wood barrel! Wolfgang writhes, but Mark SMACKS Tyson with a steel chair! Tyriek gets up to brawl with Mark, and then refs rush in! These teams are out for blood, what does this mean for the match tonight?
Brin regroups with Malik & Edris.
Malik asks if she’s good. Edris says that he’s been trying to tell her, positivity alone doesn’t produce results. Malik says he can’t keep saying that. Brin asks the two to tell the truth. If they don’t want her around anymore, just tell her. It clearly isn’t working, right? She’ll go work out. If they wanna come, okay. If not, it’s okay. Brin heads out, Malik follows her, and then Edris follows Malik. Then the Good Brothers snatch the camera! Big LG shouts at Bronco Nima & Lucien Price that their girl won the Street Fight, but The OC isn’t done with OTM! Machine Gun asks them how their faces feel.
If OTM shows up next week, the Good Brothers will break both their faces! Gallows & Anderson head out, but will they have to watch their backs for retaliation?
BREAKING NEWS!
Given that brutal brawl backstage, both Gallus and Ty & Ty are being evaluated in NXT Medical, and their match has been called off! Will these teams have to wait until they’re actually in the ring to fight this out?
Carlee Bright w/ Kendal Grey VS Wendy Choo!
There was a time when the Super Cheerleader and the Queen of Comfy would’ve gotten along quite well. However, something has changed Wendy into more a zombie than a slacker. Her sleep blindfold says “DEAD INSIDE,” is that how she’ll make Carlee feel soon enough?
The bell rings, Carlee fires forearms on Wendy! Carlee fires off, Kendal cheers her own, but then Wendy gets around to throw Carlee by her hair! Wendy gets Carlee up but Carlee cartwheels through the wristlock. Wendy still WRINGS Carlee out! Carlee reaches up, headscissors, and she squeezes tight! Wendy moves around, pops free, and she has a sinister grin on her face! Wendy leaps onto Carlee for a headlock, grinds her down, but Carlee claws her way up. Carlee powers out, drops down, but Wendy counters the hip toss, only for Carlee to counter the counter! Hip toss and lateral press, ONE!!
Wendy rises up but Carlee DECKS her! Carlee fires up, runs in, but into BOOTS! Wendy then runs up, SLIDING FLATLINER! Wendy stares blankly at Carlee as she flounders away. Wendy CHOKES Carlee, lets off as the ref counts, and then stalks her to a corner. Kendal coaches Carlee but Wendy snapmares, for a NECK TWIST! Carlee crawls, Wendy AX KICKS Carlee down! Wendy CHOKES Carlee, fires forearms, then HEADBUTTS her down! The fans rally, Wendy drags Carlee up, but Carlee fires body shots. The fans rally, and Wendy CLUBS Carlee down. Wendy whips Carlee to a corner, runs in and SPLASHES!
Wendy wrenches Carlee and puts her up top, into a Tree of Woe! Wendy goes corner to corner, runs back in, and DROPKICKS Carlee out of the Tree! Cover, TWO! Carlee is still in this and now Wendy is getting mad! Wendy brings Carlee up, Carlee blocks the buckle bump. Carlee elbows free, runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges, then tilt-o-whirl RANAS! Wendy staggers up, Carlee CLOBBERS her! And CLOBBERS her again! The fans fire up with Carlee, she runs in at the corner, HANDSPRING KICK! Carlee then DROPKICKS Wendy down, to STANDING MOONSAULT, but only knees! Wendy wrenches, hammerlocks, and TWISTED LARIAT!
But that’s not all! NIGHT NIGHT CLUTCH!! Carlee is caught, she taps! Wendy wins!
Winner: Wendy Choo, by submission
But she won’t let go until she’s satisfied! Wendy finally sets Carlee free, and she has a sinister smile. Is Wendy going to make everyone’s nightmares come true?
Trick Williams speaks.
“Sunday, Heatwave, Toronto. It’s my biggest test yet. Three challengers, they’ve all got cases. The Young OG, Goofy Ass Spears, and All Talk Ethan Page. Fatal 4 Way match, where anything can happen. But the only thing that will happen is I’m retaining my NXT Championship. And this Sunday at Heatwave, you already know what’s going down! I retain my NXT title.”
Shawn Michaels speaks.
“Over the past several months, there have been disturbances in NXT caused by one young man, Brooks Jensen.” Jensen has shared video on social media that NXT officials have been trying to silence him, and HBK explains that following his series of posts, it is clear Brooks has been making disparaging remarks towards the brand. Jensen even want so far as to say that one way or another, he will be heard. Reports came out that he was released from his WWE contract, but HBK confirms those reports are false. After his split from Briggs, Jensen began to spiral. He was asked to take a sabbatical to clear his head.
Unfortunately, that didn’t happen and NXT has been forced to take action to keep Jensen away from tapings and even live events. Jensen only got worse and worse, but as part of the NXT family, HBK is willing to give him a second chance. Next Tuesday, HBK invites Jensen to have a sit-down discussion with General Manager, Ava Raine, to talk about his future, and to see if he can be steered in the right direction. Will Jensen take HBK up on this gracious offer?
Karmen Petrovic VS Jazmyn Nyx w/ Jacy Jayne!
Well, she did say she was gonna do something about the disrespect, so now Karmen is getting her match with the toxic sidekick! Will Karmen make them respect her? Or will the egos of Jazmyn & Jacy only grow bigger from here?
NXT returns and Karmen makes her entrance. The bell rings and the two circle. Jazmyn ducks a kick but Karmen jumps the sweep. Jazmyn is annoyed and the two circle. They tie up, Karmen headlocks, and Jazmyn pulls hair to power out. Karmen sweeps the legs and clamps on with another headlock. Jazmyn fights up, fires body shots, but Karmen wrenches to wristlock. Jazmyn arm-drags but Karmen holds on to hammerlock! Jazmyn is annoyed and fights up to her feet. Jazmyn wrenches, Karmen rolls, and Karmen kicks free to wrench back. Karmen wristlocks, Jazmyn pulls hair to throw Karmen down!
The ref reprimands, Jazmyn runs but Karmen avoids the Penalty Kick to roll her up! TWO, and Jazmyn avoids a kick! The two reset, approach, and Karmen dodges to whip. Jazmyn reverses but Karmen goes up to SOBAT! Karmen gets moving to BASEMENT BLOCKBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Jacy gets on the apron tot aunt Karmen, but Karmen still blocks Jazmyn’s sucker punch! Karmen whips, Jazmyn reverses, but Jazmyn catches Karmen this time to KICK her down! Jazmyn stomps Karmen in the corner, then brings her up. Karmen pushes Jazmyn but Jazmyn ROCKS Karmen! Jazmyn turns Karmen for a NECKBREAKER!
Jazmyn kips up smooth, runs and PENALTY KICKS! Cover, TWO! Jazmyn is annoyed but she clamps on the headscissor squeeze. Fallon Henley is watching backstage, and is moderately impressed. The fans rally as Karmen endures the squeeze, and she fights around. Karmen turns over and manages to tuck Jazmyn to a cover, TWO!! Jazmyn escapes, storms up, but into a BOOT! And a JUMP ROUNDHOUSE! Karmen then hits a BULLDOG! Karmen fires up and the fans are with her as she rallies on Jazmyn! DISCUS LARIAT a la Natty! Karmen then runs up, wrenches, KICKS, and KICKS again!
Karmen wrenches, WRINGS Jazmyn out, and she takes aim. But Jacy grabs at her, so Karmen STOMPS Jacy’s hand! Jacy clutches her fingers, Karmen stays to mind your business. But then TOXIC PELE!! Cover, Jazmyn wins!
Winner: Jazmyn Nyx, by pinfall
Jacy pushes the ref aside so she can raise Jazmyn’s hand in victory. Will this devious duo soon take over NXT with their toxicity?
Nathan Frazer talks with Axiom backstage.
The Jersey Island Rocket is thinking that they gotta find a way early on to chuck ’em out, DIVE on ’em, get ’em back in- Yeah, and then tag to Axiom so he can- Wait, wait, what? Tag? Yeah, isn’t Frazer talking their tag title match? Oh, sorry, Frazer was talking about WWE Speed tomorrow, against Xavier Woods. Axiom cannot believe this! They have their match at Heatwave on Sunday! Yes, against Chase U, Frazer knows! He’ll be focused. But he needs to focus what’s ahead of him, and that is Woods in three minutes or less. Axiom looks stressed. And Frazer doesn’t look focused! Frazer says they’re not gonna overlook Chase U, Chase U are former tag team champions.
But guess what? They’re the best team in the game right now! No one is knocking them off their horses! Frazer will be laser focused when the time comes, they’ll be fine. Frazer says to watch tape on Saturday. Axiom sighs, but will the Hard-Hitting Home Truth be that Frazer’s just doing too much?
Karmen storms into Ava’s office.
She saw that, right? Yes, she did. Then Karmen doesn’t care if it’s Jazmyn, Jacy or both, and she doesn’t care if she has to do it alone. Ava says Karmen doesn’t have to do it alone. Her friend came and talked to Ava, said how they’re both upset with Jacy & Jazmyn, and now they’ll have a match on the Heatwave preshow. OMG, Natty’s back? Uh, no, it’s Arianna Grace. She may not be The BOAT, but she is the Beauty Queen! And Canadians have to stick together, eh? What better place for them to team up for the first time ever than their hometown of Toronto? They’ll take on Jacy & Jazmyn together!
It’ll be the Beauty Queen and the Princess, OH CANADA she can’t wait! Arianna squees and hurries away, but Karmen is getting a headache. But will she be able to tolerate Arianna long enough to kick Jacy & Jazmyn in half?
Sol Ruca speaks.
“Growing up, I was never one to play by the rules. And in gymnastics, there are a lot of those. Instead, I taught myself almost everything I know with my own beam, mat and bars. I went to the beach and the park, and I taught myself through trial and error. I jumped into competing in acrobatics and tumbling, and accepted a scholarship to the University of Oregon, where I was a multi-acrobatic-event national champion. Fast forward to today, my thirst for adrenaline and ability to adapt quickly landed me in my new home of NXT.
“I was in my element in that ladder match at Battleground. But I’m not afraid to admit, I came up short to the better woman that night. Like LeBron James says, ‘You can’t be afraid to fail, it’s the only way you succeed.’ While everyone else may talk the talk for what they think is their opportunity, I simply focus on walking the walk. And snatching a few souls on the way. Make no mistake: I am bringing the heat to Toronto, and leaving as NXT Women’s North American Champion.” The Surfer Girl is ready to ride the wave, but will she see not even she does it like Lani?
Time for the NXT Championship contract signing!
Already in the ring and in their seats are the three challengers, Ethan Page, Shawn Spears & Je’Von Evans. And of course, THE NXT Champion gets his proper introduction. The fans chant “Whoop Dat Trick!” as the man himself makes his way out to the ring. Trick steps inside, sets his title on the podium, and then grabs the mic. “WOO~! Hey yo check it, there’s a Heatwave coming to Toronto, and I know you boys are hungry. But it odn'[t matter, because in Toronto, the people are gonna be chanting one thing. NXT, tell ’em what we gon’ do! “WHOOP DAT TRICK!”
Ethan says this is why he loves Trick. He loves that Trick doesn’t care! Not if it’s a singles match, a Fatal 4, he’ll bring that same energy no matter what. Trick fights for the people, with his emotions, and he is THE champ! Honestly, if Ethan is being real,. Trick’s the hottest thing going in WWE right now. But this swagger Trick has? Yeah, Ethan’s seen this before. He saw it at Battleground. The match he would’ve won- But he didn’t! He got whooped! So quit wasting everyone’s time and just say what he wants to say. Ethan says he would, if not for Trick rudely interrupting.
The fans taunt Ethan with “YOU GOT WHOOPED!” but Ethan says this swagger, Trick is planning on bringing it to Toronto. Well, this won’t be like in Vegas. This is a Fatal 4 Way! Ethan doesn’t have to beat Trick to win the title, even though he can. He just doesn’t have to now. Trick, the odds in this match are not in your favor. Trick asks Ethan if he really thinks Trick doesn’t know the stakes. Does Ethan think Trick doesn’t know his back is against the wall? Trick’s back has always been against the wall! And he always comes through! The fans cheer that.
Trick says he probably has the least experience of anyone who’s ever held this NXT Championship. But guess what? Trick wears it well. And that is why he grinds so hard, puts in the work. Ethan comes around talking about his résumé, his accolades, his work. Trick’s got a résumé as well. And on Sunday, Trick adds another win to it. Shawn Spears says Trick must love the sound of his own voice, huh? The fans boo but Spears says Trick must believe every word he says. Pure emotion pouring out. Spears disagrees with Ethan, though. He loves this emotion, this swagger. So here’s what Trick should do: Keep doing your thing. Because it’s that swagger that brings Spears the title.
It is Trick’s swagger that got him pinned by Spears last week! Spoilers, Trick. In Toronto, Canada, Spears’ hand will be raised again. The fans boo but Spears says here’s how he sees it. There’s a champion who wears his heart on his sleeve, another guy who feeds his ego, and oh, a 20-year-old kid who is just happy to be here. Je’Von mockingly says, “Oh, oh, 20 year old kid~!” Yeah, yeah, everyone’s used that since Je’Von got here. “This kid” already signs his part! Spears is just saying, we saw in his video earlier, this is Je’Von’s first PLE ever. Je’Von is headlining! But Spears will be right there with him the whole way.
Spears signs his part, and says Je’Von reminds Spears of that one team that makes it to the big one. They make it to the World Series, the NBA Finals, the Superbowl, and they don’t have a shot in hell in winning, but is just happy to be there. Je’Von says what’s crazy is, everyone wants to use age against him like he’s not a threat. But we’ll see about that. NXT, if you hear him, let him hear ya say “YEART~!” “YEART~!” Then is the Young OG nervous? “NO!” Well, Je’Von won’t lie, he is. But is the Young OG excited? “YES!” Yeah he is! Because when he walks into Heatwave, everyone will learn that boy BOUNCY~!
But if we’re talking experience, Spears, let’s talk about how much experience you’ve had holding that title. Oops! He don’t have any. So when Je’Von walks into Heatwave, he will leave NXT Champion, and he’ll show Spears what a champion really looks like. And that’s all love. Je’Von puts his mic down, Spears scowls but he passes the contract over. How does Trick hear about that? Did he just hear all that? Trick says yeah, he did. Trick reaches for the contract but Ethan takes it away. Ethan says Trick may’ve heard Je’Von, but he probably doesn’t like any of that. Ethan signs his part, and says he and Spears have both beaten Je’Von. Can Trick do that?
Ethan’s been in the ring with both Trick and Je’Von, and Ethan will admit, he doesn’t like Trick’s odds. Well, Trick doesn’t like Ethan. And as far as this title goes, it is every man for himself. He ain’t blind, he sees the Young OG, give it up for him. He’s been doing his thing. And yeah, he’s bouncy. But Trick makes one thing clear. Je’Von can do a lot of great things, and Trick likes him a lot. But there is one thing Je’Von can’t do, and that’s take the title from Trick. Spears points out that Je’Von can just pin Ethan and take the title. Ethan counters by saying when he pins Je’Von, Ethan becomes NXT Champion!
Spears says wait, no, because Spears is gonna be champion. Ethan will still be disappointed, and Je’Von will still be too young for this. Je’Von says the kid about to rock his old ass if he keeps it up! Je’Von says Ethan and Spears keep on stirrin’ up drama, and Trick is his dawg, but Sunday, Je’Von is coming for the title. And there ain’t nothing Trick or these two dumbasses can do about it! Spears DECKS Je’Von! And Ethan goes after Trick! The fans boo as the Canadians hit first! Spears throws chairs out of the way, has Je’Von up top and throws hands, but Je’Von gets under! Trick turns things around on Ethan, too!
Trick FLAPJACKS Ethan through a table! Je’Von POWERBOMBS Spears through the other table!! The fans fire up but then Je’Von glances at the gold. Trick sees Je’Von eyeing what’s his and snatches the belt. These two were meant to battle it out 1v1 in the first place, will it come down to them by the end of it? Or will the fire of a Fatal 4 Wat be too much for either of them?
My Thoughts:
A very good go-home to Heatwave, but it also made the already talkative NXT much more talkative. I will say, I kinda dig how they’re doing the Jensen story. HBK sharing Jensen’s apparent downward spiral coupled with his chaotic attempts to get back in the building, there’s some real intrigue into how his character’s changed. The sit-down meeting HBK has asked for will make for a very interesting segment, and I would think/hope Josh Briggs gets involved given their history. Also, powerful stuff from Lola in that promo with Roxie, but sadly Roxie might be right. It just doesn’t feel like Lola’s time, as popular as she is with the NXT regular audience. Roxie could probably cheat to retain while helping in Lola’s Face turn.
Really funny promos from Arianna with Karmen, both to set up Karmen VS Jazmyn and then to set up the tag match for Heatwave. Team Toronto might win, if Karmen and Arianna can find a way to work together. Very good stuff from Stone and Stevie getting on each other’s nerves, good set up for Oro VS Myles. Good promo from NQCC where Dempsey’s logic continues to confuse Kemp. First he wants to be like Tony D, now he doesn’t, what is Kemp to do? Good win for Oro, though, he’ll be primed to face Ethan after Heatwave no matter what happens in the title match.
Very good promo from Chase U to address the controversy Ridge and Duke have been hiding. Riley got fittingly smug about being vindicated, that might come into play later on. At the same time, Axiom and Frazer are still feeling their own dysfunction as Frazer keeps trying to climb the Speed Division ranks. It really comes down to which team can’t get past their issues. Chase U probably loses just to add to this story with Ridge where they just weren’t good enough without his cheating, and then Axiom and Frazer can continue to be at odds about Frazer splitting his focus until something happens closer to SummerSlam season.
Great Street Fight to open the action, but I figured Jaida would win given she’s the NXT talent. Good promo from Good Brothers later to call out OTM, though, and that should be some really good stuff. Maybe Good Brothers win to force a Mixed Six as the blowoff, with Jaida getting another pin on Mia to cape it off. That is to say, I don’t think Nima & Price should be pinning the Good Brothers, at least not in a fair fight. Good match from Brin and Izzi, but I figured Izzi would win. Good bit of Tatum showing up to creep Izzi out, too, as well as the losing streak now getting in Brin’s head and affecting the trio.
Great brawl to “cancel” Gallus VS Tyriek & Tyson, they should raise the stakes and make their tag match Tornado Rules or something. Great tag match from Hank ‘n’ Tank VS New Catch Republic to show Hank ‘n’ Tank do have what it takes. Good match from Carlee and Wendy, but of course Wendy wins again. Good promo from Eddy and Lexis to get on their feud, but I never would’ve thought musical choices would be a motivator. Like many of Lexis’ feuds so far, I’m sure they go back and forth, each winning one, and then we get a No Disqualification type blowoff down the line.
Very good promos from both Kelani and Sol to hype up not just their athletic abilities but also their match. I feel like Sol would’ve already been Women’s North American Champion after Battleground if she was gonna have this title at all, so I would think Kelani retains and Sol moves her way up to the top title. Very good promos from Wes and Oba to do very much the same. Wes wants that title so bad, he probably pushes himself a bit too far and ends up losing, forcing him to move on and finally go for the top title. And speaking of THE NXT title, really good promos from each guy leading to the contract signing. Good promos here, too, though maybe things could’ve been trimmed down a bit. Good brawl, though, but Trick and Je’Von each standing tall, feels like a Canadian finds a way to win in Canada.
My Score: 8.9/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Jey Uso is in the concourse.
The fans are all fired up as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion makes his way out into the crowd! Omaha, Nebraska all YEET along, and even Pat McAfee does, no concern for what Gunther might think. Jey high-fives fans on his way to the ground level, high-fives some more fans on the way to ringside, and Jey daps it up with Pat & Cole. Jey then goes to the ring, and the fans continue to bounce while singing along with Day One Ish! Jey then gets a mic while the fans cheer. Omaha even says, “One More Time! One More Time!” Jey thinks about it, and he figures why not! YEET! Jey and the fans bounce again, then Jey goes back to the mic.
Jey says, “The World Heavyweight Champion, Main Event Jey Uso, is now in your citaaay~!” The fans cheer, and Jey says look. He’s here. He knows Logan Paul’s here. So let’s just stand on business tonight! Where you at, Logan!? But instead, “Ladies and gentlemen…” The Wise Man walks out on stage! The fans boo as Paul Heyman continues his introduction, and he says he cam here tonight not to disrespect the World Heavyweight Champion, Main Event Jey Uso. But he dragged himself all the way to Omaha, Nebraska because he wanted to say something straight to the face of the World Heavyweight Champion, Main Event Jey Uso.
Jey tells OG Heyman, “You got a lotta balls stepping to me after what you just did to my family.” Heyman says wow, Jey is going to lecture Heyman about betraying their Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns? Jey says yeah, he’ll talk to Heyman. Day one, Jey saw past him. He warned Roman about him, and he warned CM Punk about him! Well, a shame that no one warned Heyman. Warned him about his best friend, his BFF, his brother in arms, CM Punk. And while he’s at it, keep your damn boos to yourselves while he’s on the mic! Not one of these fans, or Jey, had to live through what Heyman did.
Heyman’s best friend, CM Punk, put him in a position that 100% absolutely guaranteed it would sabotage him! The fans chant for Punk and Heyman mocks them for it. “They chant his name because they don’t know what’s in the dark heart of that man.” Punk put Heyman in a guaranteed lose-lose situation with Roman Reigns. And let’s talk about Roman Reigns for a minute! The fans chant for “O T C!” and Heyman sighs. Heyman says he had a dream with his best friend, CM Punk, while Roman was still playing high school football. Long before Roman thought about following in his father’s footsteps into pro-wrestling.
And while Heyman helped Punk overcome adversity, what’d Roman think he was going to do? Sell him out to Punk? Why? After Heyman built the Bloodline for five years, why would he do that?! The fans boo more but Heyman sighs again. Heyman found a “stray big dog on the island of irrelevancy, and I turned him into the Tribal Chief and the ruler of the WWE Universe. We were the Undisputed WWE Champion for 1,316 days! And I’m not the one that blew it by getting beat by Cody Rhodes after being distracted by Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 40! HE lost the title! HE lost the title that I spent five years of my life building him up as the champion!
And then what’d he do? He disappeared. He went back to being a big dog licking his big wounds, and left me in the hands of Solo, and Jacob Fatu and those Tongans, who put me through a table at Madison Square Garden and almost ended MY 40 year career. And he didn’t come back toa venge me, he came back to get his ula fala back! But I betrayed Roman Reigns, right? I betrayed Roman Reigns, who couldn’t handle the fact that I just wanted to help out my best friend live out his dream! No, it’s always Paul Heyman! I’m always the liar! I’m always at fault! I’m the betrayer, I’m the double crosser, I’m always the freakin’ scumbag in this situation! NOT THIS TIME! I’M RIGHT! I’M RIGHT! I’M IN THE RIGHT! And you blame me?! Screw you!! And screw each and every one of you for booing me!”
The fans boo more but Jey isn’t sure what to think. The fans chant “You Suck! You Suck!” and call Heyman an a-hole, but Jey takes a moment. Jey asks if Heyman is okay. In fact, is Heyman done? Jey has another question: What does this have to do with Jey? Heyman smirks and says that he does owe an apology. It has nothing to do with Jey. Not that part. He didn’t come out here to talk Roman and Punk. Here is the thing Heyman did come out here to talk with Jey. See, Jey won that title because he wanted that title> But that title is all about power and control. And honestly, Jey doesn’t know how to wield that. Jey doesn’t understand that!
Jey thinks coming out here to YEET with the audience and putting on the best in-ring performance is all it takes. But that’s not what this title is about. So while Jey needs in his heart and wants to be a champion… Seth Rollins has to be a champion. Rollins has to have that power, that control, and Bron Breakker… Well, that is just stage one of the plan. Stage two is the World Heavyweight Championship. But Heyman is out here tonight to do Jey a favor. And we all know how well Heyman’s favors work out> Jey gets to sign his own death warrant. Jey gets to chose the night he loses the World Heavyweight Championship.
Because Seth Rollins hereby challenges Jey to the World Heavyweight Championship! Rollins pinned Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, Rollins deserves to be #1 contender! Jey gets to pick the time and the place, because Rollins will fight Jey for that title any time, and any place. Heyman drops his mic then takes his leave. Jey tells Heyman to hold on, OG. Omaha, can you help him out? Jey asks if Heyman just said “any time,” and “any place,” “any where,” for the world title, against Seth Freakin’ Rollins? Then it’s on TONIGHT! FOUR LETTERS! ONE WORD! UH, UH… YEET!!
Jey had Logan Paul on his mind, but now he is daring the Visionary to put up or shut up! Will Jey turn the tables on Rollins? Or is Jey playing into Rollins’ hand?
Heyman returns backstage.
He finds Rollins & Bron, and Heyman smiles. Heyman says, “He fell for it> I cannot believe he fell for it! He wants to do the match tonight! You were so right!” Rollins asks you know what he loves. He loves to say< “I told you so.” And he tells Heyman, “I told you so.” Heyman says that is true. Bron says Seth Freakin’ Rollins, World Heavyweight Champion… Heyman asks if Bron understands what is going on. Roman Reigns prepared Seth Rollins at Mania, and Rollins pinned the biggest star in the main event. CM Punk prepared with unbridled passion for Rollins at Mania, and Rollins not only beat Roman & Punk, Roman & Punk lost to Rollins in the main event.
Jey Uso is a great champion, don’t take that away from him. He made Gunther tap out! Gunther! Jey is no easy day in the park. But Jey wasn’t focused on Rollins, he was distracted by Logan Paul! And now he has no time to prepare for Rollins. But Rollins is fully focused on Jey because there’s no one left. Rollins is a sniper, and he has Jey in his sights. And tonight, we get handed the keys to the kingdom when the ref hands that World Heavyweight Championship to Seth Freakin’ Rollins…! Bron can see the vision now, but will we all see Rollins burning down the YEET Era?
PENTA VS JD McDonagh w/ The Judgment Day!
The Intercontinental Championship Fatal 4 Way at WrestleMania only went well for “Dirty Dom” because he had an Irish Ace up his sleeve! JD is back, but will Penta make him pay for the part he played? Or will The Judgment Day be able to screw Penta over again?
Raw returns and JD is in the ring. The bell rings, JD and Penta circle while Carlito & Finn Balor watch from ringside. The fans rally for #CeroMiedo as Penta throws it up. But JD kicks low! JD headlocks for the takeover, but Penta headscissors. JD kips free, arm-drags and has the armlock. Penta headscissors again, JD kips free, and then he waistlocks. Penta ELBOWS free, runs, but JD drop toeholds! Penta avoids the basement dropkick, but JD avoids the Penalty Kick to roll Penta up! TWO and JD returns. Penta again avoids a kick but the STANDING MOONSAULT hits! Cover, TWO! Finn argues the count but JD CLUBS Penta.
JD stands Penta up to bump him off buckles, then he CHOPS! Penta CHOPS JD in return! And CHOPS again! Penta runs up to KICK JD’s leg out! The fans cheer while JD hobbles away. Penta CHOPS again, then KICKS the leg out again! The fans fire up with Penta while JD goes to another corner. Penta storms up, but JD puts him in the corner, only for Penta to dodges and CHOP! JD sputters, Penta swaggers, and Penta KICKS the legs out! Cover, TWO! Finn wants a timeout but there’s no such thing here. Penta drags JD up, whips him to a corner, but JD BOOTS in return!

Waller was talking with Pearce about how Waller’s been a bad friend to Theory, wanting a singles match for himself, but that’s selfish. Waller wants Theory to have the match, it’d be great for him. Okay, Theory is down! Pearce asks if Waller is serious, and Waller says he is! Well, if that’s what they want, fine. Theory has a singles match now. It’s official! Great! But who is it against? Uh, well, it’ll be better as a surprise, but they better get to the ring. #AllDay, remember?
Waller hurries away and Theory wonders what kind of surprise it could be. Well, everyone is wondering that. Who will Waller pass over to Theory to avoid getting brutalized?

BREAKING NEWS for Backlash!
Penta was so close at WrestleMania, and he got through JD here tonight, so now he will be challenging Dominik Mysterio for the Intercontinental Championship!
Judgment Day regroups in the clubhouse.
They’ve clearly heard the news, and JD storms in asking what happened out there. The ref kicked them out? And why did Gable go out there? That wasn’t on any of them. JD says then Penta and Gable need to get it ASAP! Dom says Penta will be handled at Backlash, but as for Gable- Wait, who is this walking into the clubhouse? It’s A J STYLES! The Phenomenal One nods to Finn, Finn nods back, but Carlito asks how Styles even got here. Oh, R-Truth told him where they were. Plus, it wasn’t that hard to find. But he’s not here to fight or cause trouble. Styles just wants to give a friendly warning. Whether it is Dom or Penta, Styles is after that title.
Dom says whatever, old man. Wow, oh, so hurtful. But Styles tells Dom that it doesn’t matter who wins, he want the title! And then he’ll beat Dom up either way. Dom says this is crazy. Who knew being a champion was this hard. Penta, Styles, his hands are full! Wait, Finn has history with Styles. Can’t he handle Styles for Dom? Oh, what? Now Finn cleans up Dom’s messes for him? Nah, just messing with you. Finn’s got this. They fist bump, but will Judgment Day (not) hold it together without Liv around?
Chad Gable is backstage.
“Freakin’ luchadores. Bloody my nose?” The New Day walk over and Gable says it is not the time for this. Kofi Kingston says hold on, hold on, hear them out. They saw what went down, and that was awful. And they know that it is around time American Made got some respect around here. Xavier Woods says the War Raiders are already talking about getting a rematch, but New Day beat the bejeezus out of them, so that’s a no. What the New Day thinks is that opportunities need to start coming back to American Made. Gable likes what they’re saying. Give him some more ideas like that. But then Becky Lynch pushes through.
Woods tells The Man it was messed up how Lyra Valkyria treated her. Becky thanks him for that. Becky heads to the ring, what will she have to say here in Omaha?
Becky Lynch goes to the ring.
Omaha is torn as The Man has a mic in her hand. Becky says The Man has come around to Omaha, and she’s baffled by the bit of boos and “You Suck” chants she’s getting. Wait, wait, wait. She is very confused. The fans are treating her like she’s the bad guy here? No, she’s the victim! Okay, okay, she took out Bayley, fine. But when she came out to WrestleMania, everyone lost their minds! A woman in the crowd cried tears of joy! No one asked where Bayley was, because no one cared, Bayley is garbage! Becky took out the garbage! The fans were happy the garbage was taken out, but then Becky took credit for it and everyone got mad she took out the garbage!
That’s not what they should say when someone takes out the garbage! You tell that person, “Thank you for taking out the garbage! And what’s more than that, I also took out the recycling! Because that’s what Lyra is! She’s less offensive than garbage, but she’s still garbage! And what is garbage about her is her attitude. She doesn’t have a dream if it isn’t for me! She doesn’t have a title if it isn’t for me! She doesn’t make history if it isn’t for me! She doesn’t even have a freakin’ fiancé if it isn’t for me!!” The fans boo, but Becky says she still gets all this disrespect! But wait, here comes Lyra! Becky says this is what she’s talking about!
Lyra has a mic and asks, “Did you actually just call me recycling? You’re the Queen of Recycling! You’ve been recycling the same moves and the same tired old act for years! But that’s fine, Becky, you do you, I don’t care. What I have a problem with is you acting like you had anything to do with my success. The one thing I want to drive into your skull more than my foot is that you didn’t make me!” The fans cheer, and Lyra says she’ll catch Becky up. Becky went on holiday, and everyone here got better. Becky went on holiday, and Lyra made history of her own. Lyra holds up the Women’s Intercontinental Championship and the fans cheer.
Lyra says, “Oh, but you’re what this championship needs, right? That’s what you said. That’s rich, considering I’ve defended it more times than days you’ve shown up to work this year.” The fans cheer that zinger! Becky paces but Lyra says she sees it now. Lyra sees it so clearly. Becky shattered glass ceilings and Lyra is forever grateful. But Becky left all that broken glass on the ground and the rest of the Women’s Division were supposed to just follow behind because Becky never had any intention of taken anyone to the top with her. Becky says okay, okay, Lyra is right. Becky was gone, and everyone had the best year of their careers.
But that’s only because they didn’t have Becky around to compare themselves to! The fans boo but Becky says no, she didn’t help anybody because she doesn’t like anybody. She didn’t help anyone because her job isn’t to help anyone, it is to beat everyone! And Becky is very, very good at her job! She’s the greatest to ever do it! That’s not just her saying it, SPORTS ILLUSTRATED said so! The fans do cheer that, but Becky tells Lyra it doesn’t matter how great she thinks she is or how great she’ll become, because she will always be the moment after Becky! Wow… Sports Illustrated, huh? Lyra is wrong, she’ll take it back. Please, continue listing the achievements.
What can we say? Becky’s first SmackDown Women’s Champion, first woman to win the main event of WrestleMania, and the first Women’s Intercontin- NO! Wait! That’s Lyra! Becky frowns while the fans cheer, and Lyra says Becky must hate it. Becky must hate that this is Lyra’s first ever. But get used to being second. Becky throws hands but Lyra hits back! The fans fire up as these two brawl, and then Lyra hits a SPINEBUSTER! Becky gets up, Lyra is right on her, but Becky puts her in ta corner! Lyra dodges, RAMS into Becky again and again, then things spill outside! Lyra sends Becky into barriers! And apron! And barriers again!
The fans fire up but refs rush out! Omaha says, “LET THEM FIGHT!” but Becky gets free and throws off her jacket! Becky then gets in the ring and tells everyone, “You see this disrespect?! You see this disrespect?!” Lyra gets free and is back for more! The fans fire up, Becky clinches, but Lyra slips free to fireman’s carry! NIGHTWING DRIVER!! Lyra stands tall over Becky, title in her hand! Will this be the scene this Saturday for Backlash?
Iyo Sky VS Roxanne Perez!

Rusev VS Otis w/ Akira Tozawa & Maxxine Dupri!
Bulgarian Brute no more, he has been REDEEMED! And now, he feels it is his divine appointment to “fix” all those on Raw who were once like him. Will that mean #TheDozer is going to go through baptism by fire? Or will he simply be crushed?
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two big men circle. They tie up, are in a deadlock, and they break. The fans rally more as the two tie up again. Another deadlock, but Rusev manages to power Oits bac. Otis powers Rusev back, the fans duel, and the big men break again. Rusev nods, perhaps liking what he is seeing already. They tie up again, and Rusev KNEES low, CLUBS Otis and fires hands in the corner! The ref counts, Rusev stomps a mudhole, but stops as the ref gets in there.

Will Rusev not care what he must do to “redeem” Monday Night Raw?
Raw returns and Adam Pearce is in the ring.
The General Manager hopes that they can get this show back on track. That said, please join him in welcoming to the ring… Pat McAfee! Omaha fires up as Pat hops off the desk, grabs a mic, and joins Pearce in the ring. Pearce also welcomes out Pat’s opponent for Backlash… DER RING GENERAL, GUNTHER! The fans are less excited as Gunther makes his way to the ring. Gunther and Pat keep their eyes on each other as Gunther fetches his own mic. Pearce wants to remind them that they’ve gone over this. They will NOT have what happened two weeks ago happen again. Get what you want out verbally, because Saturday, the time for talk is done.
Pearce says the floor is theirs, but keep it professional. Pearce then steps aside so Pat and Gunther can stare down. The fans cheer Pat on but Gunther says, “Well first of all… Do not worry. I’m not gonna do anything tonight, I’m not going to spoil that for myself. Because luckily for you, unlike you and your friend out there, I am professional.” The fans chant “You Tapped Out!” at Gunther, and he tells them to shut up! He’ll get back to that later, don’t you worry! Pat says he heard Gunther mentioned being professional. And Pat’s friend, Michael Cole, that is a walking, talking GOAT right there! The fans cheer that!
Pat tells Gunther, “For 28 YEARS, every single week of his life, except for three times, he has dedicated to traveling the world for this company. 28 years straight, 52 weeks a year, for this company!” The fans cheer that, too! Pat says Maggle has earned the right to have an opinion. And since that opinion pissed Gunther off so bad, Gunther flipped a switch and felt he had to attack a 60-year-old man, Pat will give Gunther an opinion of the man he’s standing in front of. Pat says it is apropos to be here in Omaha, Nebraska. When he thinks Nebraska, he thinks of the Cornhuskers! Pat shouts out Coach Rhule and his players in the crowd.
Pat says he can’t wait to watch the boys in the Fall rise to the top! And when Pat’s in Omaha, he also thinks of their steaks. Nobody beats this town’s meat! NOBODY! The fans chant “BEAT THE MEAT!” Pat says right across from this very arena is a baseball field that has hosted the NCAA World Series since 1950! The fans cheer that, and Pat says this city is a symbol of working hard and dreams coming true. And Pat feels “dreams” is a good word. They both have that in common. Pat might be from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the USA, and Gunther might be from Vienna, Austria, both men grew up with the same dream.
They both grew up wanting to be in this business, idolizing the superstars of yesterday, and spent hours and hours in front of TV watching pro-wrestling, thinking that is what they were put on this earth to do! The problem with Gunther is, he was at this for 20 years. He has been a champion for 80% of his WWE career. He’s jaded! This is no longer a dream but a job for Gunther. For Pat, every time he walks into an arena, he gets jacked up about life, baby! The fans cheer that! Pat says he thinks about 12 year old Pat, the kids out there in the crowd like him, dreaming in the upper rows to get in this ring and let a-holes like Gunther know that they don’t like what Gunther’s about.
And what Gunther’s about right now, as opposed to the Waltering around stage… Gunther doesn’t want it anymore. He’s too comfortable. It happened against Sami Zayn, it happened against Jey Uso, and it’ll happen with Pat. Pat will prove to Gunther and the fans that this Gunther… is SAWFT. The fans fire up for that! Gunther paces a moment, then he stares Pat down as he says, “Did you enjoy your little daughter’s birthday last week? Two years, right? It’s cute. I bet it was a very special day for you. Because for me, Saturday is a very special day, and you just got me into the right mood for it!
“Because it’s my first match since WrestleMania, and I’m going to show up sharp, I’m going to show up prepared, I’m going to show up more focused than every before. Don’t you worry that I’ll overlook you. Don’t worry that I’ll underestimate you. I promise you, you have my full and undivided attention. Because on Saturday, that bell is going to ring, and I’m going to beat you up! I’m going to MAUL you! I’m going to grab you by the head, and DRIVE it into this mat! I’m going to CHOKE YOU OUT until you drop like a wet towel! Tonight, by my grace, you are untouchable. But on Saturday, trust me when I say this! On Saturday, only the grace of GOD can lift my arms off your throat!”
Gunther shoves his mic into Pat, then he storms off. Der Ring General is ready to reload and unleash his full arsenal upon Pat, will Pat survive to even be part of next week’s show?
WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Jey Uso VS Seth Rollins w/ Paul Heyman & Bron Breakker!
To what Pat McAfee just said, perhaps Gunther did underestimate Main Event Jey Uso, but Jey also managed to bring something out of himself that even he didn’t know was there. But that confidence was preyed upon to give The Visionary his shortcut back to this title. Will Rollins and his A-Team make the plan come together? Or will we bookend the show with some YEET?
Raw returns as Jey makes his entrance, and from the ramp this time. The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is truly in control!
The bell rings and Jey’s first defense begins. The fans rally behind Jey while he and Rollins stare down. Omaha gets the “YEET! YEET! YEET!” going and Jey is fired up. Jey is already undoing his wrist tape, he wants to throw down! Rollins slowly steps forward, the two tie up, and Rollins waistlocks. Rollins headlocks, spins, hammerlocks, headlocks again and hits the takeover to ghost pin! TWO, and Rollins laughs at how close he had Jey. The fans duel with “YEET!” and “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” Jey and Rollins circle, tie up, and Rollins headlocks again. Jey powers up and out, but Rollins runs him over! Cover, ONE!
Rollins sweeps the legs to cover, ONE! Jey kicks, Rollins blocks, and then Rollins ducks the Dragon Whip! Rollins lounges on the top rope and the fans boo. Jey is annoyed but he keeps his cool. Rollins swaggers up, but Jey UPPERCUTS him down! Jey just suckered Rollins! “YEET!” Rollins says okay, and he shoves Jey. Jey shoves back! Rollins shoves again, Jey shoves again, so Rollins CHOPS! Jey fires a haymaker, Rollins fires back, and the fans are torn! “YEET!” wins out but Rollins mule kicks low! Jey avoids the stomp, but Rollins kicks low again. Jey fights off the Pedigree, but Rollins bails out to avoid the superkick!
The fans are torn but Bron & Heyman walk over to check with Rollins. Rollins says it’s alright, Jey is good. Jey is champion for a reason. Rollins goes to the apron, has Bron relax, and then he steps inside. The fans rally behind Jey as Jey and Rollins circle. They feel things out, but then Rollins kicks low! Rollins CLUBS and stomps away on Jey, then stands him back up to bump him off buckles! Rollins stomps a mudhole in, digs his boot in, but the ref backs him off. Heyman sings along, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” and Rollins stalks Jey to the ropes. Rollins drags Jey up, “You think you’re on my level?” Rollins whips, Jey ducks ‘n’ dodges, and then UPPERCUTS!
Jey runs, Rollins blocks the kick, but the DRAGON WHIP hits! Jey runs and LARIATS Rollins up and out! Jey then DIVES, and Rollins is sent over the desk! The fans fire up while both men are down! Heyman & Bron are worried, but Raw goes to break.
Raw returns once more, and Rollins slithers into the ring. Rollins runs corner to corner at Jey, and Rollins forearm SMASHES! Jey falls to his knees but the fans still cheer him on. Rollins says the fans are just like Jey, they just don’t understand. Rollins brings Jey up, but Jey ROCKS Rollins! And ROCKS him again! And again! “YEET!” But Rollins kicks low! Rollins fires off in the corner, the ref counts, and Rollins keeps trying as the ref backs him off. The ref reprimands, but Rollins just goes back to Jey. Rollins puts Jey up top, CHOPS him, then climbs. The fans rally as Rollins brings Jey up, and Jey fires body shots!
Jey HEADBUTTS Rollins down and the fans cheer! Rollins stands, Jey leaps, but Rollins gets under! Jey keeps moving, ducks ‘n’ dodges, but then Rollins runs! DOUBLE CROSSBODIES collide! The fans fire up while both men are down again! “This is Awesome!” as Rollins and Jey go to opposite ends. Rollins storms up, but Jey counter punches again! “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Rollins wobbles, Jey pops, locks ‘n’ winds up to DECK Rollins! Then SAMOAN DROP! The fans fire up again as Jey shakes out the stars. “UCE! OH!” HIP ATTACK! Cover, TWO! Heyman is relieved and Jey grows frustrated.
Rollins slowly rises up, but Jey is there to fireman’s carry! Rollins fights the Samoan Drop and slips out of the ring. Jey pursues, they go around the way, and Rollins slides in. Jey drags Rollins back out, but Rollins BOOTS Jey into barriers! Rollins builds speed and he DIVES! Direct hit and Jey hits barriers! Rollins puts Jey in, goes to the apron, and springboards, into a SUPERKICK! Cover, TWO!! The antiair didn’t end this and the fans can’t believe it! The fans again declare, “This is Awesome!” as Jey and Rollins stir. Rollins rises, Jey aims from a corner, and Jey runs up, but into a KICK! Rollins fireman’s carries, then pops Jey around!
Rollins aims, runs up and BUCKLE BOMBS!! Jey falls, Rollins climbs, and the fans fire up! FROG SPLASH FLOPS as Jey dodges! Jey runs and SPEARS into a PEDIGREE!!! Cover, TWO!! Rollins is furious and Heyman is shocked, but Jey is showing that championship grit! Heyman coaches Rollins up while he goes to a corner. Rollins nods, he knows he has Jey in his crosshairs. Rollins runs back up, but Jey avoids the stomp again! SLEEPER!! Jey has Rollins like he has Gunther, but Rollins throws Jey away! Jey hurries to get moving! SPEAR!!! Cover, TWO!??! Jey is stunned and the fans are shocked, but Bron has a huge smile seeing Rollins’ own grit on display.
Omaha again declare “This is Awesome!” and Jey rises back up. Jey hobbles to a corner and climbs up. Rollins stirs, rises, and he anchors a foot! Jey tries to get free but Rollins CLUBS him! Rollins climbs up now, HAMMERS Jey, but Jey HEADBUTTS! And HEADBUTTS! “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Rollins falls back, but into the ref! Bron grabs at Jey! Jey BOOTS Bron off into the Hydration Station! But that lets Rollins get up and SUPER DUPER PLEX! Roll through and FALCON ARROW! Rollins aims from a corner now, and he CURB STOMPS!!! Cover, TWO!?!?! Jey survives and Omaha is thunderous! Bron, Heyman, Rollins, none of them know how this is possible!
Rollins goes to Bron, whispers something to him, but wait! SAMI ZAYN is here?!? Even after what happened last week!? Bron hurries to the ramp, ready to fight Sami. But wait, Sami LEAPS in from the crowd! The fans fire up as Sami fires hands on Bron! Sami POSTS Bron, then Jey SUPERKICKS Rollins! And a SPEAR!!! Jey hurries up top and Sami cheers him on! USO SPLASH!!! Cover, TWO?!?!?! HOW?!?! Omaha has no idea what to make of that, and neither does Sami! Sami coaches Jey, Heyman coaches Rollins, and the fans rally back up. But Bron SPEARS Sami!!! Bron then slithers away to hide while the fans boo!
Jey asks what happened to Sami and he goes outside to check. Heyman distracts the ref, Bron SPEARS Jey!!! The fans boo even more, and Bron drags Jey up to put him in the ring! CURB STOMP!!!! Rollins crawls to the cover, laughing all the way, but C M PUNK is here?!?! Omaha goes nuts seeing Punk back! Punk CHUCKS a chair at Bron’s face! Then he gets int he ring! Rollins and Punk brawl, there goes the title match!
Winner: Seth Rollins, by disqualification (Jey Uso retains the title)
Punk SMACKS Rollins with the chair, JAMS him up, then SMACKS him again! Bron slides in, but Punk SMACKS away on him! Rollins tries to get back in but Punk runs him off! The fans are thunderous for Punk as he and Sami stand tall! Jey gets back up, and clearly the battlelines have been drawn! Will Rollins’ vision for Monday Night Raw fall apart?
My Thoughts:
A great Monday Night Raw as the go-home to Backlash, but everything with the world title match was both great and curious. No Logan Paul here in Omaha is a mixed bag itself. From the story side, he should’ve, so he and Jey could’ve had a face-to-face. But as a person, I was glad we didn’t have to endure Logan being smug. And quite the audible bringing Heyman out to talk with Jey. Heyman’s passion was great, really adds some stuff to help us understand his side. And I like that they “suckered” Jey into this match. It was definitely an awesome match, even with the overbooking that eventually threw it out.
Sami and Punk showing up was all fine in story, but after what happened last week, I feel like Sami shouldn’t have come back so soon. But that aside, Jey, Sami and Punk make for a good unit to counter Rollins’ team. Though, Rollins will need another member who can wrestle since Heyman won’t be of any use. Here’s hoping it is Austin Theory given how Theory is upset with Waller after that switcheroo. Good return for Sheamus, though I feel like Sheamus has done more returns in the last 12 months than just about anyone ever. Here’s hoping Sheamus still gets in on the Intercontinental Championship story.
Speaking of, great match from Penta VS McDonagh, even with the overbooking. A bit surprising Penta overcame all that to win, but it works since now Dom and Penta are now set for an Intercontinental Championship. And there is room on the card as it doesn’t seem Jey VS Logan is happening for Backlash. Makes me wonder if they started us on a Jey VS Logan feud before they were really ready, as Backlash “isn’t big enough” for Logan’s “star power.” I like that Styles also got in on this, Styles VS Finn is going to be awesome, and can certainly set up the winner as the next challenger. It really depends on what happens with Dom VS Penta.
Gable getting involved as also good, given how he and Penta had their confrontation last week. New Day had a good promo with Gable to gas up American Made. That is to say, New Day is using American Made as a shield against The War Raiders, but it’ll only help Erik & Ivar earn their rematch. Great return match for Rusev with Otis looking strong even in defeat. Rusev doesn’t waste time teasing he’s a Tweener, he goes right to blindsiding Tozawa and beating Alpha Academy down. Not sure who is next for Rusev, as there aren’t as many Faces not really tied into anything on Raw. Maybe whatever WWE Draft we get moves Rusev to SmackDown, or at least moves some names from SmackDown and NXT to Raw so Rusev can face fresh meat.
Great promo from Becky and Lyra to help hype Becky VS Lyra. Good brawl, but now Lyra standing tall makes me think Lyra loses the title. Becky can start on some sort of second Grand Slam or something like that, but also she and Lyra will be 1-1 and the rematch for the Women’s Intercontinental title can be the tiebreaker at like MITB or SummerSlam. Iyo VS Roxie was a great match, but of course Giulia showed up. No reinforcements with Rhea promoting Crown Jewel: Perth, and sadly, Dakota Kai being hurt and now released, no Damage CTRL to help either. But the Heels did need a moment where they stood tall, and one of them could even get a world title shot.
And honestly, Pat and Gunther had an awesome promo to hype their match. Pat put over Maggle, he put over Nebraska, and quite perfectly framed this story as the hungry dreamer in Pat himself and the complacent veteran who has already done so much. Gunther’s response was also great, because now he’s angry enough to get that hunger and that fire back. I would think Gunther wins, as he needs the rebound from WrestleMania and Pat doesn’t really need much. But Pat can get a moral victory of sorts by lasting longer than Gunther or any of us expect. Pat can just keep getting up after every chop, have a false finish or two, but ultimately lose because his body can’t come through for his fighting spirit. Respect for Pat but momentum for Gunther, that’s the best outcome.
My Score: 8.9/10

8 Man Tag: Los Ingobernables de Japon VS Shota Umino, Tomohiro Ishii, Taichi & Taka Michinoku!
As Wrestling Dontaku wraps up the weekend, Tetsuya Naito and Bushi have reached the end of their NJPW run. Will they be victorious one last time alongside Hiromu Takahashi & Shingo Takagi? Or will the Roughneck, Stone Pitbull, Holy Emperor & Blue Playmaker make this parting a bitter goodbye?
For one last time, Naito takes his time with the elaborate entrance attire. It also seems rather clear that Bushi is emotional over this being his farewell match. The fans rally and the teams sort out. The fans call for “NA-I-TO! NA-I-TO!” LIJ fust bump, the fans cheer, and Naito steps up for the team. The fans rally behind him more as he starts against Taichi. The bell rings and Fukuoka cheers even harder for “NA-I-TO! NA-I-TO!” But then Naito tags out to Bushi. The Black Mask has the fans on his side, too, and he circles with Taichi. They approach, Bushi kicks low then runs, but into a BOOT! Taichi runs, but Bushi TOSSES him out!

The fans fire up while both men are down! Bushi stands and he tags in Hiromu. Hiromu BLASTS Ishii, then Takagi tags in! Hiromu & Takagi double whip Taichi to DOUBLE SHOULDER TACKLE! Then they flex! The fans cheer the side chest.
Hiromu stands Taichi up to CHOP him to the corner. Hiromu whips corner to corner, runs in and LARIATS, then snapmares, but Taichi RIDGE HANDS! Taichi wrenches and HOOK KICKS! Shota BLASTS Takagi because he can, and Taichi tags in Taka. Taka BOOTS Naito down, then stomps Hiromu around. The fans rally but Taka brings Hiromu up. Hiromu CHPOS, CHOPS, and CHOPS! Taka gets mad, and he pokes Hiromu in the eyes! Taka whips Hiromu to the corner, stomps and knees him, then tags Ishii. Ishii winds up to CHOP! Hiromu grits his teeth and CHOPS back, but Ishii doesn’t budge!
Ishii CHOPS Hiromu and eggs him on! Hiromu stands to CHOP, but Ishii CHOPS back! Ishii gives more trash talk and more mocking kicks. Hiromu stands to CHOP, CHOP, CHOP!

Takagi SLIDING LARIATS! The fans fire up with Takagi and he whips Shota. Shota reverses to TORNADO DDT! Shota LARIATS Takagi down! But then Shota falls over, too! The fans fire up while both men crawl.
Taka tags in, he BOOTS Naito and BLASTS Bushi! Taka runs, redirects, redirects, and BOOTS Takagi down! The fans rally up as Taka brings Takagi up. Takagi ROCKS Taka! Taichi runs up to RIDGE HAND! Ishii ROCKS Takagi! Then we get a RIDGE HAND BACKHAND COMBO! SUPER K from Taka!! Cover, TWO!! Takagi is still in this but Taka goes to scoop! Takagi is too big, so Taka pokes him in the eyes! Takagi still ELBOWS! JABS! Taka UPPERCUTS, but Takagi PUMPING BOMBERS! Bushi slips in, as does Hiromu, and they double whip Taka to a corner. Hiromu runs up to forearm SMASH! Bushi adds an ELBOW!
Takagi LARIATS, then he snapmares Taka! Naito is in, LIJ hits a QUADRUPLE DROPKICK!! The fans fire up and Takagi says, “TOKI GA KITA!” The fans fire up more as The Rampaging Dragon drags Taka up. Taka fights the lift, and Shota SHOTGUNS Takagi! Hiromu dropkicks Hiromu’s legs! Hiromu dodges Ishii, he and Naito give Ishii TENDEDERO! Taichi runs up, he breaks through the line, but Hiromu sends him into an atomic drop! Takagi BLINDSLIDE BOMBERS! LARIAT in the corner, feed to a SUPERKICK! Naito wrenches Taichi for DESTINO!!! The fans are thunderous after seeing that final Destino!
Bushi then runs in and BLASTS Shota! Bushi keeps moving, for one last DIVE!! Down goes Shota and the fans are thunderous! Takagi has the fans join in for “OI! OI! OI!” Takagi runs, Taka dodges, and Taka BOOTS! Takagi comes back to PUMPING BOMBER! Takagi drags Taka up, pump handles and torture racks, BURNING DRAGON!! Cover, LIJ WINS!

IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship: Yota Tsuji VS Yuya Uemura!
The Gene Blast may be one of the Reiwa Era Three Musketeers, but the Heat Storm vows to be the face of this new generation. A match meant to happen months ago finally does happen, but who will truly be the frontrunner of the future?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is the true global star!
The bell rings and the fans rally up as Yota and Yuya stare down. Fukuoka duels, but the “YO~TA!” sounds stronger than the “YU~YA!” They circle, feel things out, then circle a bit more. They feel out the knuckle lock, then Yuya rolls. Yota keeps him at bay as they clinch, then they go around. Yuya waistlocks, Yota wrenches free and waistlocks in return, but Yuya switches. Yota headlocks, Yuya rolls him to the mat and headlocks in return. Yota keeps his shoulders up, then fights to his feet. Yuya hits a takeover, Yota headscissors, but Yuya kips up. Yuya is fired up and the fans cheer him on.
Yota stands up and the two reset. They circle while the fans duel, and the two tie up. Yuya wrenches to a hammerlock but Yota switches and full nelsons. Then Yota headlocks and grinds Yuya down. Yuya fights up, pries at the hold, but Yota powers it on tighter. Yuya powers up but Yota squeezes the headlock even tighter! The fans applaud while Yuya endures. Yuya fires body shots, then powers up and out, drops down, but Yota avoids the dropkick! Yota dodges but Yuya arm-drags! And arm-drags again! Yuya has the armlock and the fans cheer again. Yota pulls at the hold, then fights up. Yuya grinds the elbow but Yota reaches for ropes.
Yota has the ROPEBREAK but Yuya brings him away from the ropes quickly. Yota fires forearm after forearm until Yuya lets go. Yota runs up but Yuya arm-drags! Only for Yota to drag Yuya down, trap an arm, and SACRIFICE the other arm! The fans cheer while Yuya writhes. Yuya shakes out the bad arm but Yota brings him back up. Yuya fires a forearm! Yota grins so Yuya fires more shots! Yota wrenches and serves up SOLE FOOD to the arm! Yuya staggers away to a corner and the fans rally more. Yota storms up on Yuya, puts him in the corner, and he wraps the bad arm around ropes! The ref counts as Yota pulls, so Yota lets go at 4.
Yota brings Yuya out to snapmare, then he has the bad arm in a top wristlock! Yuya endures, the fans rally, but Yota puts on the pressure! Yuya fights forward, reaches out, but Yota pulls on the arm! Yuya still manages the ROPEBREAK! The fans applaud as Yota legs go. Yota paces while Yuya shakes out the bad arm. Yota comes back to stomp the arm! Yota then wrenches Yuya, KNEES the arm, then KNEES it again! Yota KNEES Yuya into the corner, then paces again. Yuya stands, Yota runs in, but Yuya BOOTS him away! Yota runs back in, Yuya dodges and CHOPS! CHOPS! CHOPS! The fans fire up as Yuya winds up, but Yota dodges! Yota BOOTS Yuya in the corner!
The fans rally as Yota whips corner to corner. Yuya goes up and over, then arm-drags! And DROPKICKS! The fans cheer while both men are down. The fans rally again as Yuya rises up. Yuya roars, the fans fire up more, and Yuya brings Yota up to wrench and BIG back suplex! Cover, TWO! Yota stays in this but Yuya stays focused. The fans rally and Yuya brings Yota up. Yoga fights with elbows, then wrenches to YANK the arm! And YANK! And YANK! Yota whips, Yuya reverses, but Yota RANAS! Yuya tumbles out and the fans rally as Yota aims. Yota builds speed, and he DIVES! Direct hit and Yuya is sent into railing!
The fans fire up while Yuya stumbles and falls, and Yota fires back up! Yota has the fans rally more as he takes a lap. Yota comes back for Yuya, puts him in the ring, and the fans applaud. Yota steps in, stands Yuya up, but Yuya fights the suplex! Yota powers through, but Yuya fights free! Yuya CHOPS, then runs, but into a scoop and BACKBREAKER! The fans fire up while Yota grits his teeth. Yota storms around, goes to a corner, and he aims as Yuya rises. Yota runs in, STINGER SPLASH! The fans fire up while Yota snapmares Yuya down. Yota goes up, up, but Yuya avoids the Marlowe Crush!
Yuya dropkicks Yota’s leg, then has it for a SHIN BREAKER! GROUND DRAGON SCREW! Yuya then hurries to step through, FIGURE FOUR! Yota endures and the fans fire up! Yuya pulls on the main leg but Yota works to turn things over! The fans duel as Yuya fights against that, but Yota does turn the hold over! Yuya endures now, so he hurries to turn things over! Yota uses that to get the ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer, Yuya and the ref undo the hold, and Yuya stands over Yota. Yuya brings Yota up to scoop and SLAM him down! Yuya then goes to a corner, climbs up, only for Yota to GAMANGIRI! Yuya is dazed up top, so Yota climbs up after him!
Yota brings Yuya up, throws forearms, then goes to the very top! But Yuya fires forearms! Yota falls, Yuya adjusts, and Yuya leaps! Yota avoids the crossbody but Yuya rolls through! Yota comes back, Yuya slips around and full nelsons! But Yota powers up to break the hold! Only for Yuya to GERMAN SUPLEX! Yuya runs, but into a BOOT! Yuya comes back and takes a swing, but into the BACKBREAKER! FLATLINER! But Yuya avoids the stomp! Yuya shoves Yota, but Yota DROPKICKS! The fans fire up as Yota keeps moving, and then Yuya DROPKICKS! Both men are down and the fans fire up again!
The two men crawl away to the corners while the fans rally up. Yuya runs in corner to corner, but Yota BOOTS him! Yota runs up, but Yuya clinches! Yota fights free, ROCKS Yuya, and Yuya staggers to the ropes! Yota whips, Yuya ducks ‘n’ dodges but Yota blows past, only for Yuya to get under! URENAGE! Cover, TWO! Yota stays in this and the fans fire up! Yuya shakes out the bad arm, then he stands Yota up for a scoop. Yuya SLAMS, then he fires back up! The fans fire up with Yuya as he climbs again! Yuya is up top, for the FROG SPLASH! But he FLOPS as Yota moves! Yota runs back in, FLYING ARMBAR TAKEDOWN!!
Yuya clasps hands, but Yota breaks the grip! ARMBAR!! Yuya endures, flails, reaches out, but Yota pulls on the bad arm! Yuya fights around, but Yota just keeps after the arm! Yuya uses his core strength to sit up, but Yota PULLS the arm straight! Yuya falls over, fights around, and he turns over. Yota does his best to keep the armbar, even with this mounted angle! Yuya bites his thumb to ignore the pain in his arm! Yuya then reaches out, ROPEBREAK!! Yota lets go in frustration but the fans fire up. Yuya clutches his elbow but Yota paces around. Yota drags Yuya up from the ropes, but Yuya CHOPS! Yota brushes that off, but Yuya CHOPS again!
Yuya can’t put enough power behind the strikes with that bad arm, but he keeps trying! Yota BOOTS Yuya, Yuya drops to his knees, and the ref checks with him. Yuya refuses to let the bad arm cost him again, and he rises up to CHOP! And HEADBUTT! And HEADBUTT! Yota ROCKS him!! And then KNEES him down! The fans fire up while Yota stands tall! Yota goes to a corner, watches Yuya sputter and rise, GENE- DROPKICK to the leg! Yuya hurries to grab that leg, but Yota fires off forearms! Yuya eggs Yota on, so Yota HEADBUTT! But Yuya still DRAGON SCREWS!! Yuya steps through again, FIGURE FOUR!!
The fans fire up as Yota endures again! Yuya puts as much pressure as he can, Yota pries at the hold, but Yuya thrashes around! Yota reaches out, keeps his shoulders up, and he drags Yuya along towards ropes! But Yuya drags Yota back from ropes! Yuya thrashes as hard as he can, we hit 20 minutes, and Yota still endures!

Fukuoka is thunderous as Yuya rises! Yuya brings Yota up, cording holds one arm, swings to get the other, but Yota STUNNERS free! Yota roars, runs, but into a DROPKICK! Yota just comes back, GENE- ARM-DRAG!! Yuya hurries to lock in those arms, but Yota fights off the clinch! They go around and around, and Yota frees an arm! But Yota brings it back in! DEADBOLT SUPLEX!!! Yuya roars, the fans are electric, GENE BLASTER outta nowhere!!! Cover, YOTA WINS!!
Winner: Yota Tsuji, by pinfall (still IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion)
The Heat Storm was certainly on fire, but Tsuji was volcanic! The gold stays with Yota, will he and those left in LIJ make sure NJPW stays tranquilo?
Speaking of which, the rest of LIJ returns to the ring so they can stand with their guy. Tsuji gets to also have his final photo op with the group as we know it. We also get one last LIJ fist bump with the five of them, and then Naito & Bushi let Yota, Takagi & Hiromu have the ring. Yota hurries to get the mic to tell Naito & Bushi, “Let me have one last word.” The fans applaud, and Naito & Bushi stop to hear him out. “Naito and Bushi leaving could signal the end of Los Ingobernables de Japon. But remember this: We’re ungovernable. We’ll always be connected in our hearts. Until next time.” The fans applaud that! Naito even gives one last fist bump salute.
The fans cheer as the LIJ Era has changed, and Bushi makes sure we see his mask where it says, “Adios.” Then Yota continues to say that he is still IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion, and that he’ll continue to defend the cerulean blue mat of NJPW. The fans applaud, and Yota says he is fortunate to have such a great rival in Uemura. And another in Gabe Kidd. So, who should he defend this belt against next? Well, he said the man’s name, so here comes the Mad Man! The fans bark it up for the War Dog, and Gabe gets right in Yota’s face. Yota says nic eto see him. Should they pick up where they left off?
Gabe takes the mic to say, “You’re an IWGP champion?” No, no, Yota beat Evil and Yuya, but in Osaka… It was a double knockout! Yota never beat Gabe! The fans cheer that point! Gabe says on June 15th… In Osaka Jo-Hall… “Let’s find out who the strongest is!!” The fans love that idea! Gabe heads back out, the fans bark more, and Yota tells Gabe, “Let’s show ’em our NJPW.” The fans also like that, and Yota asks if they’re ready! The fans cheer because they are, but who will make this their Dominion?
IWGP World Heavyweight Championship: Hirooki Goto w/ Yoshi-Hashi VS Callum Newman w/ The United Empire!
The Fierce Warrior finally put the G in IWGP at the New Beginning in Osaka when he won this title. But now, the Prince of Pace is looking to blow right past him as the top guy in NJPW! Will the Goto Revolution stay the course? Or will it be conquered by the United Empire?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who’s really the G of IWGP!
The bell rings and the fans rally strongly for “GO-TO-O! GO-TO-O!” Callum doesn’t let that bother him, and he runs up to BOOT Goto! Callum fires forearms, whips, but Goto reverses! Callum ducks ‘n’ dodges to build speed, but then Goto dodges! The fans cheer as Goto is at least agile like Callum. They tie up, then they just fire off forearms! The fans rally as the shots go back and forth, faster and faster! Goto gets the edge, headlocks, but Callum powers out. Goto runs Callum over, but Callum kips up to ENZIGIRI! Callum TOSSES Goto out, then PLANCHAS! The fans fire up while Goto goes down!
Callum fires himself up and the fans cheer. Callum brings Goto up, the fans duel a bit more evenly, and Callum whips. Goto reverses and Callum hits railing! But he comes back to BOOT Goto down! Callum snarls, drags Goto back up, and now Callum sends Goto into railing! Goto comes back but Callum BOOTS him down again! And then PENALTY KICKS! The fans rally, Hashi coaches Goto, but Callum KICKS Goto in the back! Callum puts Goto in the ring, the fans applaud, and Callum sits Goto up again. Callum hits another PENALTY KICK! Callum then goes to the corner and climbs up, calling his shot.
Callum aims, DIVING- NO, Goto dodges! Callum comes back, but Goto dodges! Goto LARIATS, then he clinches for the SAIDO! Callum flounders away and the fans fire up. Callum goes to a corner, Goto runs in, MURAMASA! Then Goto puts Callum up top! Goto climbs up after Callum, just to drag him into a draped position! SUPER DRAPING NECKBREAKER!! Callum flounders out of the ring, Great-O-Khan & Francesco Akira check on him, as does Red Shoes. Callum winches, clutches his shoulder, but he manages to sit up. Callum has speed but Goto is taking advantage of his skinnier frame.
Red Shoes starts the ring count and Goto stays back, which annoys Callum. Callum storms into the ring, but Goto kicks him down! Goto has Callum up for a suplex, and BRAINBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Callum stays in this and the fans fire up, but Goto stays right on Callum. Goto drags Callum up, but Callum clutches his shoulder, so Goto lets him be. We’re only five minutes in as the fans rally up, and Goto stomps Callum around. Callum crawls away to a corner but Goto grabs at him. Callum wants Goto to hold on, and Red Shoes has Goto step back. Callum’s neck and shoulder are really bothering him, but Goto just storms up to stomp him!
Goto drags Callum up, snapmares, then clamps on a chinlock. Callum endures as Goto’s knee digs into the back and neck. Goto then ELBOWS Callum in the head, stomps him around, and brings him up. Goto CLUBS Callum’s neck, but Callum CHOPS! The pain in his shoulders holds Callum back, but Goto clinches for a RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! And then a GROUND OCTOPUS! Callum endures, reaches out, and the fans rally up. Goto thrashes around but Akira & Khan coach Callum. Callum kicks around but Goto shifts to a headscissor necklock! Callum endures the squeeze, kicks and kicks, and finds the ROPEBREAK!
The fans applaud and Goto lets go in frustration. Goto drags Callum up but he’s a ragdoll again. Goto still brings Callum around, snapmares him back down, then KICKS him in the back! And ELBOW DROPS! Callum sputters but Goto just ELBOW DROPS again! Akira & Khan coach Callum but Goto looms over him. Goto ELBOW DROPS onto Callum’s back! Cover, TWO! Callum toughs it out but Goto is still calm. Goto stands Callum up, kicks him low, but Callum fires a forearm! And another! The pain in the neck holds those back, and Goto CLUBS Callum! Goto runs, but into a DROPKICK! The fans fire up while both men are down!
Khan & Akira coach Callum, Hashi coaches Goto, and both Goto and Callum crawl to the apron. Goto goes to the floor, and Callum smiles. The fans rally as Callum builds speed and FLIES!! Callum does a full 360 to hit Goto and then rolls through more to stand back up at the ramp! The fans are thunderous and Callum fires himself back up! Callum drags Goto to his feet and puts him in the ring. The fans applaud, and Callum hurries back in. Callum aims from a corner while Goto flounders away. The fans rally more, and Callum runs corner to corner. FLYING DROPKICK! Callum then chicken wings for a TIGER SUPLEX!
But the bad neck won’t let Callum bridge! Callum hurries to lateral press, TWO! And we’re just 10 minutes in! The fans rally, Callum fires up with a very Will Ospreay style “OI! OI! OI!” The fans rally behind that, and Callum brings Goto up. Callum reels Goto in, hooks a leg, FIRE- NO, Goto slips free of Firebolt, waistlocks, but Callum fights the lift. Callum runs, Goto follows, but then Callum dodges! Goto dodges, Callum dodges, then Callum hurdles! But Goto fireman’s carries! USHIGOROSHI! Both men are down and the fans fire up for that high speed exchange! Goto has the crowd behind him again as he rises up.
Goto storms up on Callum, stands him up, but Callum fires a forearm! Only to fall to his knees! Callum rises up but Goto DECKS him! Callum is running on fumes, but the fans do rally for him, too. Goto eggs him on and Callum manages to stand. Callum fires a forearm, drops to a knee, but Goto stands him up. Goto DECKS Callum again! Callum shakes out the stars and he snarls! Callum fires another forearm, but Goto DECKS him a third time! Goto eggs Callum on, the fans rally again, and Callum rises. Callum puts his hands behind his back and dares Goto to hit him! So Goto DECKS Callum a fourth time!
Khan & Akira coach Callum on but Red Shoes asks if Callum wants to stop. Callum shakes his head, he’s not gonna stop here. Callum stands again, leans on the ropes, then comes back for more! Callum even SPITS at Goto! The fans boo that, but Goto DECKS Callum for it! Goto watches Callum sputter, and Callum slowly rises again. But then he falls back over! Callum headbutts the mat to fire back up, and the fans rally behind him! Goto winds up and ROCKS Callum! Callum is back to get in Goto’s face! Goto fires a flurry of forearms! Callum CHOPS! Goto feels that one! The fans fire up and Callum roars, but Goto spins him! URA G T R!
Goto goes to run but Callum reels him in! GERMAN SUPLEX! ROUNDHOUSE! Callum runs, but into a fireman’s carry! G T W!! Cover, TWO!! We’re 15 minutes in as Goto stalks Callum to the apron. Goto stomps Callum, then stands him up. But Callum fights the fireman’s carry with elbows! Goto still lifts! Callum flails, slips down, and KICKS Goto! Callum goes up, up, and OSCUTTER 2.0 on the apron!! Both men fall to the floor and the fans fire up! Red Shoes checks, both men are able to continue, so a ring count starts. Khan fans off Callum while the fans rally. The count already passes 7 of 20, then hit 10, but both men are still down!
Callum rises at 13, drags himself in at 17, but Goto is still down! Goto rises up and springs in at 19! The fans fire up as this continues! Callum goes to a corner, runs up, BUSAIKU KNEE! Then he hurries to bring Goto into the drop zone! Callum roars, climbs, and the fans fire up! DIVING DOUBLE STOMPS!! Cover, TWO?!? Goto survives the coup de grace and Callum can’t believe it! Akira & Khan tell Callum to keep going, he’s almost done it! The fans rally and duel as Callum hobbles over. Callum stands Goto up, then runs, but Goto swings, DOUBLE LARIATS collide! Both men stay up, and they DOUBLE LARIAT again!
The fans fire up, Callum returns, and DOUBLE LARIATS collide again! And again! Callum waistlocks, ripcords, RAINMAKER?!? Cover, TWO!!! Goto survives as Callum shouts out the former leader of Chaos! The fans are thunderous, Callum feeds off that energy, and Callum drags Goto up. Callum calls his shot, springboards, OSC- NO, Goto blocks the cutter! DISCUS- NO, Callum dodges and springboards! OSCUTTER 2.0!!! Cover, TWO!??! But Callum hooks a leg! FIREBOLT!!! Cover, TWO?!?! Goto survives again and the fans are electric!

Goto stands Callum up, dragon sleepers, but Callum fires shots from below! Goto blocks that arm, traps it, and G T R KAI!!! Cover, GOTO WINS!!
Winner: Hirooki Goto, by pinfall (still IWGP World Heavyweight Champion)
The Prince of Pace did his best to follow in the Aerial Assassin’s footsteps, but he is still a long way from reaching the top of the mountain. However, if this is how close he came on his first try, will nothing stop Callum Newman from being the future of NJPW?
As for Goto, the belt is put back around his waist, and he watches Callum walk away. Callum takes a moment to bow in deep respect to Goto before he and the Empire leave. Goto then grabs the mic, and the fans cheer him on. “No matter what anyone says, this is MY time!” The fans cheer that! Goto continues, “Who’s my next opponent? As a fighting champion, I’ll take on all challengers!” Wait! Zack Sabre Jr. makes his way back out here! Goto took this title from ZSJ so clearly ZSJ wants a rematch. ZSJ grabs a mic to tell Goto in Japanese, “Good work tonight. That was a fantastic match! Truly fantastic.
“You’ve been on a roll lately! You’re indeed a great champion. But I’m you’re next challenger!” The fans like the sound of that! Goto says, “I accept!” The fans really like that, and the two shake hands on it. Will the Submission Master make sure that- WAIT! Shingo Takagi is here?! He storms into the ring with a mic to say, “Pardon the intrusion!” The fans cheer as Takagi asks, “Mind if I speak my piece? Zack, hold on a moment. OI, GOTO! You really are something. You got a belt, a wife, and kids! And on top of that, you’re in Hontai!” The fans do applaud that with a bit of a chuckle.
Takagi points out that he, on the other hand, has no belt, no wife, no kids. “And now it looks like my faction is done… But that doesn’t mean I need to hang my head. I’ll soar to the top!” The fans applaud, and Takagi says the G in IWGP stands for Goto, right? But oi, oi, oi! You can’t spell “Shingo” OR “Takagi” without a G! He has two G’s, so he wants his shot at the title. At least, he’d like to say that. But he has no objects to Zack. Takagi did lose to ZSJ last time. So then Takagi will wait to challenge the winner of Goto VS ZSJ! The fans like that, too! Takagi says if it’s about G’s, Goto can’t argue Takagi’s point!
The three men all look to each other, and it looks like the deal is struck. Fierce Warrior VS Front Man, and the Rampaging Dragon gets the winner! Who will stand on the summit of NJPW going into the summer? Takagi and ZSJ take their leave, and Goto continues. “Again, thank you very much for coming today!” The fans applaud, and Goto says, “No matter who I’m up against, I will not be defeated. The Goto Revolution is far from over! Follow it until the very end! Let’s end with Goto’s G’s.” The fans chuckle, and Goto says he knows most of the locales had G in their names. But not in Fukuoka…
Even so, Goto still has this IWGP World title around his waist, so no worries there. IKU ZO! The fans cheer, and Goto says, “The G in IWGP is for GOTO!” The streamers fly, and the Fierce Warrior is ready to lead NJPW on! But will things only heat up from here on out?
My Thoughts:
An awesome event for Wrestling Dontaku’s finale, and we’re already building towards Dominion next month. I was rather surprised that the Six Woman Tag was so quick. Well, I feel like a lot of Stardom matches on a NJPW show end up like that… But the 10 Man Tag with Tanahashi’s team beating TMDK, and then the 8 Man Tag of LIJ winning, both of those matches felt just as fast/short. I suppose on some level, they did it because we all had a feeling who was winning. Tanahashi’s team wins because he also had special guests Tajiri and Ryota, so that was just a great moment for some longstanding legends.
LIJ winning was apparently to also commemorate their last match as a faction. With Titan being their CMLL member, we only have Hiromu, Takagi and Tsuji. I suppose a trio isn’t necessarily a faction, but I’m surprised they just sprang this dissolution on us. Great match from Yota VS Yuya, but I think they dragged it out a bit at the start. It got hot by the end, and Yota retaining was a great move. Gabe Kidd calling his shot is also a great move, he and Yota are going to have a great rematch from their time limit draw. And then awesome main event from Goto VS Callum, with Callum looking great even in defeat. Callum is definitely on his way, maybe he’ll really build up his power level in the G1 Climax this year.
Great promo to close, with Goto, ZSJ and Takagi establishing the next couple of title shots. I think Goto VS ZSJ has been made for Resurgence this Friday, so they’re getting that right out of the way so Takagi can face the champion at Dominion. At the same time, they kinda have to because Best of the Super Juniors is going to dominate May. Resurgence would be a wild place for a title change since it’s in the US and it’s a true PPV, so I’m not liking ZSJ’s chances.
My Score: 9.1/10
