PLAY BY PLAY
Jey Uso is here!
Toronto fires up as Main Event Jey is here, ready to Mon-YEET in the Bank! The fans bounce along with Jey, and he gets himself a mic. The fans “YEET!” and Jey says Main Event Jey Uos is now in your citaaay~! Jey appreciates that Canada actually let him in. “YEET!” And then MITB is tomorrow night. “YEET!” And if y’all want Jey to be the new Mr. MITB, lemme hear ya say “YEET!” “YEET!” But here comes LA Knight! The fans fire up as SmackDown’s Mega Star steps to Raw’s Main Event Jey! Knight gets a mic as the fans cheer him on, and he says, “LEMME TALK TO YA!” Knight kinda likes Jey asking if fans wanna see him win, let him hear ya say “YEET.” “YEET!”
Knight says it doesn’t take a genius to look around and think that yeah, maybe Jey’s the odds on favorite. Which is crazy, because just a year ago, Knight was the favorite. Knight has all the respect for Jey, and here’s why. Jey was part of this goofy Bloodline family, he breaks off and does his own thing, Just Me Uce, Day One Ish. But the way Knight shows respect tomorrow night is by showing none at all. It doesn’t matter if it’s Jey or any of the other goofs back there, they’re all getting stomped out! And don’t get lost in the sauce, because you ain’t ever been on a ride like this. As much as Jey likes “YEET!” he’s gonna hear all of Toronto saying “YEAH!”
The fans duel between “YEET!” and “YEAH!” and Jey says, “YEET!” Knight chuckles and says, “YEAH!” Jey and Knight stare down, no more sunglasses, and Jey says, “YEET.” Knight says, “YEAH!” But then here comes Carmelo Hayes! And he says no, no, no. He hates to be that guy but uh, he is! And Toronto doesn’t want YEET or YEAH. The fans boo in disagreement but Melo asks Knight how it’s been. Haven’t seen him in awhile. The last time Melo saw Knight, Knight’s head was so far up Logan Paul’s “Prime location,” he can tell us what the new flavor is. And as for Jey, Melo hopes Jey remembers H1M. They have a lot in common.
But then Chad Gable makes his entrance! Not quite a shoosh but Gable says unlike everyone else, he has been living in his own personal Hell the last few weeks. The fans chant “YOU SUCK!” but Gable says have empathy for someone who has been through what he’s been through. The Academy left him high and dry, he got hit in the head and left for dead, with the Wyatt Sick6 coming after him for reasons he doesn’t even understand! But what’d he do? Run and hide? No, he- gets interrupted by El Idolo! Andrade swaggers his way to the ring, and he tells the “chicos” that they’re all talking about their dream of winning MITB.
But chicos, dreams do not win you matches. Especially not a dangerous match like MITB. And guess what? Here comes Drew McIntyre! Andrade sighs, but The Scottish Terminator has his own mic to join the conversation. Toronto chants “C M PUNK! C M PUNK!” at McIntyre but he just soaks it up. And he expected better of the Commonwealth of Canada. Punk isn’t here, but his family is always with McIntyre. McIntyre shows off the stolen bracelet, and he says speaking of Punk, here’s a fair warning to the other five in this match. The violence McIntyre inflicted upon Punk is exactly what’ll happen each and every one of them if they get in his way.
In fact, let’s just “meet” the competition now. McIntyre gets in the ring, passes by “El Idiot” lounging on the corner, and fans continue to chant “C M PUNK!” McIntyre says he just feels bad for Chad. Melo has a bright future, but he’s not HIM. Melo is looking up at HIM. LA Knight… “YEAH!” No, that’s not the word he’ll need tomorrow. It’ll be “Nope.” And then there’s Jey… “YEET!” McIntyre asks how Jey even got across the border. And then Andrade attacks McIntyre first! Andrade dumps McIntyre out, Melo shoves Knight into Jey, Jey aims at Knight, but Knight dodges so the SUPERKICK hits Melo anyway!
Knight and Jey argue, Gable GERMAN SUPLEXES Knight! Andrade BOOTS Gable! Jey TOSSES Andrade! Fans “YEET!” and Jey builds speed, only for McIntyre to CLOBBER Jey! The fans boo as McIntyre stands tall, but this very well could be how it goes tomorrow night! McIntyre STOMPS Jey’s sunglasses, then scoops Jey! Jey slips free, Knight ROCKS McIntyre! Jey adds on, and the fans “YEET!” and “YEAH!” as McIntyre is a pinball! “YEET!” “YEAH!” Then a DOUBLE LARIAT sends McIntyre out! The fans fire up as Mega Star and Main Event Uce stare down! It is a star-studded six pack, but who overcomes the odds to become Mr. Money in the Bank?
Backstage interview with Bayley.
Jackie Redmond is with the WWE Women’s Champion, who won last the Women’s MITB back in 2019 and successfully cashed in as well. Jackie asks Bayley that she has done this, so what does it take to win this and then cash-in for a title? Bayley says the MITB ladder match is one of the most brutal matches in the WWE, but also one of the most rewarding. It is about timing when cashing in. You gotta stay focused, stay sharp, and be patient, because when Bayley did it, she became the longest-reigning SmackDown Women’s Champion ever. But Chelsea Green walks over to say “Boring~!”
The Hot Mess “apologizes” for interrupting, but says Bayley’s advice is almost as irrelevant as Bayley herself. In fact, Bayley wouldn’t be champion right now if Chelsea was not “illegally ejected” from Clash at the Castle. So guess what? When Chelsea becomes Miss MITB, #ChachingChelsea, Bayley will know when she’s coming. Then come back once you’ve won. But then Piper Niven CLOBBERS Bayley into road cases! This is what Chelsea means. The next time Piper drops Bayley, Chelsea will bring her MITB contract to become the NEW WWE Women’s Champion. Chelsea & Piper hurry away, will nothing stop them from tearing down The Role Model?
Bayley exits Nick Aldis’ office.
Naomi finds her and asks if she’s good. Bayley says yeah, and she is so sick of Chelsea & Piper. Bayley has a match 1v1 with Piper tonight. Naomi says good, and she’ll have Bayley’s back out there. Bayley knows she always does. Bayley heads out to get ready, and Naomi is just as annoyed. Will this Clash at the Castle rematch go about the same as the first? Or will Piper bulldoze Bayley for Chelsea to pick the bones?
The Street Profits w/ B-Fab VS Pretty Deadly!
Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins wanted some payback on The Bloodline, but Nick Aldis said that wasn’t gonna be good for anyone. So when Kit Wilson & Elton Prince came prancing in to pitch ideas, everyone was inspired to want this match! Will the Profits use this opportunity to climb the ranks? Or will Pretty Deadly add to the story that is their glory?
SmackDown returns and Pretty Deadly make their entrance. The teams sort out, Ford starts against Elton, and they circle. They tie up, Ford waistlocks and SLAMS Elton, then hauls him back up. Elton grabs for ropes, Ford drags him back and SLAMS him again. Elton fights up, pries at the grip, but Ford SLAMS him down again! The fans rally, Elton reaches out, ROPEBREAK! Ford lets go, Kit tags in, and Elton anchors a leg so Kit can run Ford over! The fans boo but Kit runs. Ford trips him up, hurdles over, then runs him over! Ford hits a hip toss, then Elton gets in! Ford hits another hip toss! Tag to Dawkins and they double whip Kit.
Kit runs into a DOUBLE HIP TOSS! Dawkins covers, TWO! Dawkins whips Kit to a corner, but Elton takes the bump so Kit can run back and ROCK Dawkins! Elton hurries back to tag in, and he UPPERCUTS Dawkins. Dawkins staggers, Elton UPPERCUTS him again. Elton fires hands on Dawkins, throws in knees, and then he goes corner to corner. The fans duel, Dawkins dodges Elton to JAB, JAB, and JAB! Dawkins whips, Elton reverses but Dawkins hurdles! Dawkins comes back to UPPERCUT Elton down! Dawkins DECKS Kit, too! Dawkins then runs in to CYCLONE SPLASH and ENZIGIRI Elton down! Cover, TWO!
The fans duel as Dawkins drags Elton up. Dawkins scoops but Elton slips free and shoves. Dawkins holds ropes, BOOTS Elton, but Kit HOTSHOTS Dawkins! Elton BOOTS Dawkins, and he fires up! The fans are torn but SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns again and Elton grinds Dawkins down with a chinlock. The fans rally up as Dawkins fights to his feet. Dawkins throws body shots, Elton shoves him but Dawkins sunset flips! TWO, and Elton hurries up to LARIAT Dawkins down! Elton taunts Ford, stalks Dawkins, and he drags Dawkins up to the corner. Elton point-blank clotheslines, then UPPERCUTS! Elton goes corner to corner and back again, but Dawkins dodges the splash! Elton staggers but he tags in Kit! Kit hurries to intercept Dawkins, but Dawkins ROCKS Kit! And ROCKS him again! And again! Kit headlocks, Dawkins powers up and out, but HEADS COLLIDE!
Both men are down and the fans rally up! Dawkins and Kit crawl, hot tags to Elton and Ford! The fans fire up as Ford kicks Elton, CLUBS and CLUBS and CLUBS away! Ford HAMMERs away on Kit but Elton shoves him. Ford dodge, then Elton dodges, but Ford LARIATS! Kit runs back in, but gest a FLAPJACK! Elton back suplexes, Ford lands out! Ford mule kicks, front kicks, and ENZIGIRIS! Elton flounders, Ford reels him in, BIG back suplex! Ford kips up and flexes and the fans are thunderous! STANDING MOONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Even B-Fab is surprised, but Ford hurries up top! Elton stands, and he UPPERCUTS first!
Elton calls to Kit, tags him in, and then Elton goes up. Ford shoves him away! Dawkins sneaks a tag, Kit runs up and gets a boost! Pretty Deadly have Ford for a SUPER DUPER PLEX!! But Dawkins is up top!? SWANTON BOMB!! Cover, ELTON BREAKS IT! The fans are thunderous as this one keeps going! Dawkins TOSSES Elton to the apron, DECKS him, but Kit rolls Dawkins! TWO, and Kit kicks low. Kit whips, Dawkins ducks ‘n ‘dodges to POUNCE Kit into Elton! Ford is back, Pretty Deadly is outside, so Ford FLIES onto them both! Toronto is erupting and Dawkins hits the SKY HIGH! Ford is up top, to come in FROM THE HEAVENS!! Cover, Profits win!
Winners: The Street Profits, by pinfall
Dawkins & Ford humble Pretty Deadly, if only for tonight! And with the WWE Tag Team Championships on the line tonight, will the Profits be waiting on the outside side? Speaking of…
Grayson Waller and Austin Theory talk backstage.
Waller is ready and Theory says he wants to make sure they’re on the same page. What? Does Theory suddenly not trust Waller? They are the undefeated Tag Team Champions for a reason, right? That shows the world they’re on the same page. Yeah, it’s just Theory has been thinking about what Johnny said. What Johnny said? Waller thinks that “that flop, Gargano,” is just getting in Theory’s head. Theory can’t lose his focus. Theory says he hasn’t lost focus. Then how many titles did Theory ever get with Gargano? The answer is easy: zero! Because once Theory stopped doing things The Gargano Way, Theory worked out who he is.
TWO-TIME United States Champion, YOUNGEST Mr. MITB ever, and never mind that Theory also beat JOHN CENA at a WrestleMania! And then A-Town Down Under won the tag titles just this past Mania. And those flops in DIY are so desperate for titles, that they’re turning ATDU against each other. So if they’re on the same page, then let’s show everyone who they are! Theory is onboard now, but will he and the Aussie Icon really be able to stay golden? Or will Gargano & Ciampa show what a real team looks like?
Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill VS Candice LeRae & Indi Hartwell!
The StrongEST Duo would probably both be in the Women’s MITB match if not for the Poison Pixie & #IndiWrestling. But will Bianca & Jade get their revenge here tonight? Or will Candice & Indi find the way to weather the storm?
SmackDown returns, the match is already underway, and Jade throws Indi into a corner. Jade runs up but Indi dodges, so Jade POSTS herself! Indi HOTSHOTS Jade back, runs, but into a FLAPJACK! Jade SUPERKICKS Indi, then dares Candice to get in. Candice backs up, Indi runs in, but Jade dodges. Jade runs back in, but is again sent into POST! Candice tags in, she rolls Jade and Indi BLINDSIDE FOREARMS! Candice STEP-UP SENTONS! Cover, TWO! Jade stays in this but Candice stays on her with hammering hands! Tag to Indi, she gives Candice the wheelbarrow boost for the SPLASH! Indi covers, TWO!
Indi clamps onto Jade’s arm but the fans rally up. Jade rises, ROCKS Indi with forearms, then whips. Indi reverses to hammerlock and ROCK her back! Indi flexes to mock Jade, but the fans boo. Indi pie faces Jade, clamps onto the arm again, but Jade fights her way up again. Jade fires more forearms, reaches out for Bianca, but Indi keeps her back. Jade ROCKS Indi, reaches out, but she’s still fingertips away! Indi swings, Jade dodges, and DOUBLE BOOTS bring them both down! The fans fire up as Jade and Indi crawl for their corners. Hot tags to Candice and Bianca! The EST rallies on Candice with big shoulder tackles!
Bianca DROPKICKS Candice, reels her in, wrenches and suplexes, and then SLAMS Candice right down! Bianca kips up, the fans fire up, and Bianca runs corner to corner to RAM into Candice! Bianca goes up to rain down fists! The fans count, and Bianca goes to nine, but in comes Indi! Bianca flips up and over, then SPINEBUSTERS Indi! Candice BOOTS Bianca, goes up and leaps, but Bianca stops the rana! Bianca ALLEY-OOPS Candice onto Indi! The fans fire up and Bianca handsprings to MOONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Candice survives but Bianca stays cool. Tag to Jade and the fans fire up again.
Jade hauls Candice up but Indi YANKS Bianca by her braid! Candice victory rolls Jade, TWO!! Jade escapes but Candice SUPERKICKS! Jade rebounds to BOOT! Indi runs in, Jade feeds her to Bianca for a FOREARM! Bianca torture racks Indi, Jade chicken wings Candice! KISS OF DEATH and JADED! Cover, Bianca & Jade win!
Winners: Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill, by pinfall
The StrongEST Duo gets back on top! Cathy Kelley joins them in the ring and says that was an impressive win here. Was this imperative to getting back on track? Bianca says yes, it was. The past couple months have been a little rough, but they are here to finish what they started. And that starts with getting those tag titles back from Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn. Jade says thanks to those two for keeping the belts warm. But everyone knows that it is inevitable! Jade & Bianca are coming back for THEIR tag team titles. So see you soon, girls. Alba & Isla have been put on notice, but will they have just the thing to weather the storm?
Kevin Owens is here!
Toronto fires up as the Prizefighter makes his way out to the ring, but KO is in a foul mood. However, he’s not alone, because here comes Randy Orton, as well as Cody Rhodes! The fans sing along, “WHOA~ OH~!” and Cody gets his pyro. Cody autographs signs, high-fives fans, and he joins his allies in the ring. “WHOA~ OH~!” and there’s more pyro. All three have mics, the fans cheer, and Cody says, “So, Toronto… Whaddya wanna talk about?” Cody says they could talk about last night, Sami Zayn & Friends, or about 16 THOUSAND here tonight for SmackDown, a sold-out MITB and even NXT Heatwave on Sunday. It seems like WWE and Toronto are just a good fit.
The fans cheer that, but then Cody says they’ve heard enough from Solo Sikoa and this modern Bloodline. They have asked for a fight, so Cody, Randy & Kevin are ready for a fight. Orton adds that if it is up to him, that fight ends with the three most dangerous letters in sports entertainment, R K O! The fans cheer, and now Kevin speaks. For him, he could probably talk about the last four years of his life fighting The Bloodline. Fans sing “OLE~ OLE OLE OLE~!” But what he’d rather talk about is the last four days. Monday morning, Kevin got a call from his dad, telling him that Kevin’s mom was rushed to the hospital.
Kevin flew back to Quebec then and there, and that is where he has been the last few days. The same hospital where she gave birth to Kevin, the whole family by her beside, watching her fight like hell. The fans cheer, and Kevin says the shows here in Toronto are always special. Everyone gets together, the kids see the grandparents, the whole family sees each other again and enjoy wrestling together. But Kevin’s parents won’t be here because mom is still fighting for her life. The fans cheer on Mama, and Kevin could’ve even stayed home tonight and no one would’ve said anything. The thing is, the one person it would’ve been a problem for is Kevin’s Mama.
Ever since Kevin was 11 and he discovered the WWE, Mama did everything she could to help him realize her dream. She wanted him to #JustKeepFighting, to leave it all in the ring! And so if she knew or even heard Kevin had missed a show because of her, she’d be so pissed. So Kevin will tell Bloodline this, he is more serious than he’s ever been. Win, lose or draw, all Kevin cares about is to do what Mama has wanted him to do, and that is not to just kick the crap out of The Bloodline, but to kick their asses worse than ever before! Toronto is fired up with Kevin, and that fires up Cody and Randy! Will Solo Sikoa regret ever taking over as Head of the Table?
Bayley w/ Naomi VS Piper Niven w/ Chelsea Green!
The WWE Women’s Champion already beat Chelsea’s “spicy little frittata” in Glasgow, but that wasn’t enough to be done with them. Will Bayley put a punctuation on this story once and for all? Or is Piper going to pave a way to a sequel?
Wait, Iyo Sky is spotted in the crowd! She will be in the Women’s MITB again this year, will she look to repeat history right down to taking a title with the briefcase? The bell rings, and Bayley fires off on Piper! Piper shoves Bayley away but Bayley comes back with more shots! Bayley stomps Piper in a corner, but Piper puts Bayley in the corner in return. Bayley dodges Piper, fires more shots, but then Piper picks Bayley up with both hands! Bayley CLUBS free, runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges, but runs into a SCRAPBUSTER! Chelsea coaches Piper and Piper talks trash on Bayley. Bayley SLAPS Piper back!
Piper DECKS Bayley, then runs, to SENTON! Cover, TWO! Naomi coaches Bayley but Chelsea coaches Piper, and Piper hauls Bayley up. Bayley JAWBREAKERS free, then headlocks. Bayley runs to use the corner, TORNADO BULLDOG! Piper bails out of the ring but Bayley pursues! Chelsea gets a little too close but Bayley scares her off. Bayley runs, but the Daredevil Dropkick gets caught! Bayley BOOTS Piper away, but Piper comes back to SWING Bayley into the post! The fans boo while Bayley flops down to the floor, and SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns and Piper is in the ropes. Bayley goes up the corner, to FLYING HOTSHOT! Piper falls, and now we see Zoey Stark and Lyra Valkyria in the crowd. Bayley builds speed to DIVE, and down goes Piper! The fans fire up but then Bayley looks up the ramp, because here comes Tiffany Stratton. More and more of the Miss MITB participants are showing up and Bayley doesn’t like it. Bayley puts Piper in the ring, hurries in and hooks Piper up, but Piper powers out to scoop! Bayley slips free to SLEEPER HOLD! Piper endures the squeeze, swings Bayley around and SIDEWALK SLAMS!
The fans fire up but the MITB participants are mostly unimpressed. Bayley and Piper each rise, and Bayley fires a haymakers! Piper gives it back, they go back and forth! Piper blocks, wrenches, and COBRA CLUTCH! Piper ripcords, Bayley bobs ‘n’ weaves to NECKBREAKER! The fans fire up again, Naomi really gets them going, but then Chelsea shouts at her. These two storm up and Chelsea SLAPS Naomi! Naomi ROCKS Chelsea! The fans fire up as these two brawl, and then Naomi ROCKS Chelsea! Naomi THROWS Chelsea into barriers, so Iyo Sky CLOBBERS Naomi! Iyo sends Naomi into steps!
Lyra jumps in, as does Zoey, but they go after each other! Iyo is after Tiff, Tiff RAMS Iyo into apron! The fans fire up as Tiff goes up and up and aims at the group! SUPER MOONSAULT onto them all! Bayley is stunned, Piper SPLASHES her in the corner! Bayley falls, Piper goes up and up, to VADER FLOP! Bayley hurries to ROSE PLANT!! Cover, Bayley wins!
Winner: Bayley, by pinfall
The Role Model handles business, even as she’s surrounded by chaos! Bayley dares Tiff to come for her now, but NIA JAX CLOBBERS BAYLEY! And then drops the leg, brother! The Queen of the Ring HEADBUTTS Bayley down, then drops the leg again! Nia reminds everyone that no matter who is Miss MITB, she gets her shot at SummerSlam. And to add on, she puts Bayley in a drop zone and climbs! But MIA YIM is here, and she SMACKS Nia with a kendo stick! And again and again and again! Michin is still mad at Nia for before, and she’s bringing that Street Fight mentality from NXT to SmackDown. Will Mia make sure Nia can’t relax waiting for SummerSlam?
DIY walk ‘n’ talk backstage.
Tommaso Ciampa says that eight YEARS ago, they walked into this very arena, and they walked out the NXT Tag Team Champions. “That night, Toronto made DIY.” Johnny Gargano says that two years ago, he made his return to the WWE in this very arena, because it is a second home to him. Tonight isn’t about the past. Tonight is about capturing lightning in a bottle for a second time, and becoming THE WWE Tag Team Champions! Toronto, are you ready? Then let’s go!
WWE Tag Team Championships: A-Town Down Under VS #DIY!
These tag titles’ legacy and lineage dates all the way back to the very beginning, with a true who’s who of tag team legends and WWE Hall of Famers loading up the list. Though if you were to ask Grayson Waller & Austin Theory, they’d put themselves at the very top of that list. But will the Aussie Icon & Georgia boy start putting their money where their mouths are? Or will Toronto once again be where Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa make history?
The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and it’s time to see what truly makes a great tag team!
The teams sort out and Waller starts against Ciampa, only to sucker punch Gargano! Ciampa fires hands back but Waller kicks low. Waller whips Ciampa but he BLAST Theory! Ciampa dodges Waller, Gargano jumps in but so does Theory. So all four men fire hands! The fans fire up and DIY DOUBLE LARIAT A-Town Down Under out! To then DOUBLE PLANCHA! DIY sit on the aprons, and they applaud with the fans! DIY pats themselves on the back and SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns and Theory stands over Ciampa. Theory pumps up, but Ciampa avoids the elbow drop! Theory staggers to the DIY corner, Ciampa runs up and CHOPS! Tag to Gargano, and DIY coordinate, ENZIGIRI KNEE COMBO! Ciampa brings Theory into a NECKBREAKER, Gargano slingshots to SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Gargano puts Theory in a corner, climbs up and he rains down fists! The fans count along, but Waller runs over as Gargano reaches 7. Gargano jumps to AX HANDLE Waller down! Theory runs up to ELBOW Gargano down! The fans boo but Theory storms up on Gargano. Tag to Waller, and then Theory scoops.
Theory hits a BACKBREAKER while Waller climbs a corner. BALLER ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO! Waller is annoyed but he clamps onto Gargano with an armlock. Waller bumps Gargano off buckles, tags Theory, and Waller puts Gargano on ropes. Theory holds Gargano in place so Waller can fire off hands! The ref counts, Waller lets off, and Theory steps in. Theory STOMPS Gargano down, then he taunts Ciampa with a flex. Ciampa says yeah, yeah, nice guns. But Gargano CHOPS Theory! Theory DECKS Gargano for it! Theory rains down fists, the fans boo, but Theory tags Waller. Waller taunts Gargano then drags him up.
Waller TOSSES Gargano out then tags Theory back in. The fans chant for “JOHNNY WRESTLING!” but Theory taunts them. Theory runs up, Gargano dodges, and Theory RAMS into barriers! Waller storms out, Gargano runs in, and Waller pops Gargano up. Gargano handstands on the apron, comes back, TORNADO DESTROYER to the floor!! The fans are thunderous, but Theory CLOBBERS Gargano! Theory checks on Waller, then puts Gargano in the ring. Theory hauls Gargano up and hooks a leg, AOI- Gargano cradle counters! TWO!! Gargano leaps, Theory catches him! But Gargano sunset flips it! TWO, and Theory runs up, into an ENZIGIRI!
The fans fire up, Gargano hurries, but Waller YANKS Ciampa down! The fans boo but then Theory ROCKS Gargano, hooks a leg, AOI SHODOU!! Cover, TWO!! Gargano survives and Theory is frustrated, but Toronto rallies up as SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns again and Ciampa hits WILLOW’S BELL on Waller! Gargano adds a SUPERKICK then covers, TWO!! Waller survives that onslaught but Gargano keeps his focus. Gargano runs in, Waller puts him on the apron, but then Gargano ROCKS Waller! Theory runs up, Gargano ROCKS him, too! Gargano SLINGSHOT- KNEE STRIKE! Waller turns Gargano’s spear into his own offense, then runs up in the corner. Gargano BOOTS Waller, ELBOWS Theory, ROCKS Waller, repeat! Waller ROCKS Gargano, then he BLASTS Ciampa for good measure. Ciampa runs in but Waller and Theory get Gargano up.
Gargano ducks and Waller DECKS Theory! Gargano rolls Waller up, TWO! Ciampa tags in, Gargano dodges Waller and Waller hits buckles! DIY shout out FTR with SHATTER MACHINE!! Cover, TWO?!?

Winners: DIY, by submission (NEW WWE Tag Team Champions)
Theory & Waller did it for 90 days, but that doesn’t compare to the literal decade that’s behind what makes Gargano & Ciampa a team! And while lightning might not strike twice, history does repeat itself! The pyro goes off as DIY holds up the gold, and the legacy grows! Will Gargano & Ciampa make sure everyone knows that in the end, you gotta Do It Yourself?
Solo Sikoa speaks.
He looks over the red ula fala necklace, and he explains that “this makes ME the Tribal Chief. This is not what I wanted, but this is what my family needed. Roman Reigns was not man enough to defend our title at WrestleMania. He was not man enough to defend our legacy against Cody Rhodes and his legacy. Therefore, [Roman] shall no longer call himself The Tribal Chief, because I’m the Tribal Chief.” Solo will take back the family’s WWE Championship from Cody Rhodes. And if Roman Reigns wants that back, he can try and take it from Solo.
Because Solo will show everyone in the MITB Six Man Tag that Solo Sikoa is hunting Cody Rhodes. “And you will… ACKNOWLEDGE ME.” Solo adorns himself with the ula fala, and he, Jacob Fatu & The Guerrillas of Destiny all raise their fingers. They are The Ones now, will there be no stopping them?
My Thoughts:
A great SmackDown as the go-home right into Money in the Bank tomorrow. For one, the tradition continues of the MITB competitors all interacting somehow, and that was a great opening promo where contender after contender came out to interrupt the others. Great brawl for the men, but I’m curious as to how the go-home math works out. With LA Knight and Jey Uso standing tall, you would think these two are no longer going to win. Everyone out there has been imagining CM Punk or AJ Lee screwing over McIntyre, but maybe that’s just too much to do two PPV in a row. LA Knight is surely going to face Logan Paul for the US Championship at SummerSlam, so he doesn’t necessarily need MITB, but a part of me was hoping for YEET in the Bank and a custom briefcase.
Similarly, the Women’s MITB participants brawling on the side of Bayley VS Piper was great stuff. Bayley gets a good win off Piper tonight, but of course Nia joins in. Mia going after Nia was cool, too, and that surely sets up a big match for a following SmackDown before Nia goes for the title at SummerSlam. Tiffany wiping out everyone else makes the math say she’s not winning now, but I wonder if they’ll just ignore that and have Tiff win anyway. As I said last week, it’s a good scenario for SummerSlam: Nia VS Bayley is brutal but Bayley survives, only for Tiff to cash in and pick the bones. For the most part, it won’t be a Raw competitor, Iyo won last year while Zoey Stark and Lyra Valkyria aren’t quite there yet.
Great tag team matches to help set the tone for the tag title match tonight. Profits VS Pretty Deadly was a great opener, and while Pretty Deadly is on the return, the Profits probably did need the win more to stay afloat in the tag title chase. Bianca & Jade got a good match from Candice & Indi, and naturally Bianca & Jade won. They obviously want after Alba & Isla, they’ll surely have a great tag title rematch for SummerSlam or at least the SmackDown before SummerSlam. Hard to say if Bianca & Jade win, feels like a shame if Alba & Isla lose so soon, but there also aren’t that many other strong teams to take these titles.
But what a great main event. DIY had a good promo to remind us of their history, and I loved that they used Shatter Machine here. As commentary pointed out, that finish was a great recreation of NXT TakeOver: Toronto where DIY won the NXT Tag titles, and that was the perfect way to win here. Theory & Waller don’t seem to be on the outs yet, but SummerSlam being in Cleveland, and Gargano being from Cleveland, there’s a very good chance we get a rematch of these teams there in an even more epic match. And I would think DIY retains the titles and that failure makes Theory & Waller break up.
My Score: 8.9/10

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

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

But Cage ELBOWS Knight, whips, but Knight jumps up! SATELLITE- NO, Cage goes for ropes! Knight HOTSHOTS Cage for it! Then Knight springboards back in, MISSILE DROPKICK! The fans fire up while both men are down! A standing count starts while the fans rally up. Cage goes to a corner but he runs up on Knight.

AEW reveals the Men’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament Brackets!
This year’s tournaments will go through Double or Nothing, and the finals will coincide with Forbidden Door 2026 on Sunday, June 28th in San Jose, California! The winner of each tournament will then challenge for THE AEW World Championship and AEW Women’s World Championships on August 30th at All In: London! And so, for the opening round, it will be: “Jungle” Jack Perry VS Mark Davis; Claudio Castagnoli VS Brody King; then Double or Nothing has both Samoa Joe VS Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland VS Bandido!
“Jungle” Jack Perry speaks.
“Mark Davis… I’m sure you feel some congratulations are in order. But you’re not champion to me. You see, you’re built like an Australia grizzly bear, yet you still needed somebody to hit me in the back with a golf club for you to beat me. At Stadium Stampede, bring your friends, bring any weapon you want, and I will crack you over the skull with it. Because anything goes. But after that, it’s back to grass roots, because it is you and me, fighting for a shot at the world title at All In: London. And in the Owen Hart Tournament, I will prove to you beyond a shadow of a doubt that I’m a better wrestler than you. I am the FUTURE world champion!
“And if you don’t like that, F YOU!” Jungle Jack is sharpening his knife, but will his edge be razor sharp when it comes time to cut down Dunkzilla?
Will Ospreay VS Ace Austin!
We’ve seen the Aerial Assassin training with The Death Riders, he’s won gold with his old friends in The United Empire, and now he’s about to face a dangerous man at Double or Nothing. Will Ospreay be more than ready for Samoa Joe after tonight? Or will he fail to even get past The Inevitable?

Ace shoots through to waistlock but Ospreay switches. Ospreay hits the headlock takeover, Ace headscissors, but Ospreay kips free.

Ace slowly rises up, but he ducks the Hidden Blade to DOUBLE STOMP! Ospreay sputters, Ace falls back, and now Ace takes aim. Ace runs corner to corner to A-LIST LARIAT! Then he LARIATS again and again! Ace hoists Ospreay up top, then slips outside to ENZIGIRI! Ospreay wobbles, Ace gets space, and Ace runs up! FLIPPING RANA! The fans fire up as Ace is ready to deal the winning hand! But then Ospreay pops Ace up, and gets him in position! STYLES- NO, Ace pops free!
Ace trips Ospreay, steps through, ties up the legs, TRAILER HITCH BRIDGE! TWO!! Ospreay escapes, but Ace KNEES, KICKS, and fireman’s carries! Ace tucks Ospreay to then swing him out, AIR RAID FLATLINER! Cover, TWO!! Ospreay survives and Ace is beside himself! “This is Awesome!” as Ace stalks Ospreay to a corner. Ace ROCKS Ospreay again and again, then hoists Ospreay up top. But Ospreay fires shots in return! Ace ROCKS Ospreay, goes up, but Ospreay pushes on Ace’s arm! Then he HOTSHOTS the arm as he drops down, and he tucks Ace in! CHEEKY NAN- NO, Ace dodges! Ace RAMS low, springboards in and FLYING- LIGER BOMB!! Cover, TWO!!
The fans fire up as Ace survives again! Ospreay roars, the fans are with him, and he ROCKS Ace! Ace ROCKS Ospreay, and repeat! They go back and forth, then Ospreay KICKS! Ace fires another forearm, Ospreay kicks, then Ace CHOPS! They go back and forth again, but Ace CHOPS and ROKCS, until Ospreay fires Kawada Kicks! CHOP! Ace HEEL KICKS! Ace shakes out the bad arm, runs up, but Ospreay dodges to then ROLLING ELBOW! And HOOK KICK! Then the underhooks for the STORM- NO, Ace pops free, then goes to a corner. Ospreay runs up but Ace goes sideways! Ospreay hits buckles, Ace hits the FLYING CHUCK!
The fans fire up as Ace shuffles the deck, and runs up for the0 NO, Ospreay BACKDROPS Ace, but Ace lands on his feet! HIDDEN BLADE!! Ospreay isn’t done with just one, he aims from the corner and… Ace flops over! The fans boo but Ospreay shows no mercy. He just runs up to PENALTY KICK the bad arm! Then a FLYING ARMBAR TAKEDOWN!! Ace TAPS, Ospreay wins!!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by submission
That might’ve been Ospreay’s first win by submission ever! He signals that his neck is no longer a problem, and he shows Ace respect for that fight. Ace accepts the handshake again, and Ospreay is moving on towards Double or Nothing with a great amount of momentum. But wait! SAMOA JOE is here! He and The Opps walk out on stage, and with mic in hand, Joe says, “Ospreay, Ospreay… OSPREAY, OSPREAY!” Joe is clearly mocking the chants for Ospreay, and the fans give genuine chanting and even singing in return. Joe says he just wanted to make sure Ospreay was listening, because these past few weeks, it seemed like Ospreay had a hard time hearing him.
Despite Ospreay’s best efforts, fate has put them on a collision course in the opening round of the Owen Hart Cup. The fans like the sound of that! Joe say she is here for one reason and one reason alone. He wants to speak about choices and consequences. Ospreay could’ve made the right choice and get a bye in this tournament, because that is what Joe would do for one of his friends. But Ospreay chose poorly. He could’ve been with the team that would do nothing but support and enhance Ospreay, but he decided to be a lapdog for Moxley and the Death Riders. The fans boo, Ospreay says he’s not a Death Rider.
Joe says Ospreay has made his choice, and come Double or Nothing, Joe makes Ospreay suffer the consequences. But Joe leaves Ospreay in peace tonight, for he has his date with destiny. But unfortunately, Joe’s friends, Katsuyori Shibata & Anthony Bowens, still feel slighted, and he doesn’t put leashes on his friends. Shibata & Bowens storm down the ramp, Ospreay ready to fight them both if he has to. But then The Death Riders appear! Ospreay may not have officially joined the club, but the Death Riders aren’t going to let their investment go to waste! The Opps say they’re #NeverLacking, but that doesn’t seem to be the case now!
Shibata & Bowens back down while Moxley, Marina, Claudio, Yuta, Garcia & Pac all step up to support Ospreay. Joe says, “Soon. Soon.” The fans cheer the Death Riders, or at least Moxley, but Bowens promises Joe is gonna kill you, Ospreay! The dream match for Double or Nothing is on, but will the training with The Death Riders make Ospreay the new King of Harts?
BREAKING NEWS for next week!
If you liked last week’s THREE HOUR block of AEW, then you’ll love this next one! Portland, Maine, the last Wednesday before Double or Nothing, Dynamite & Collision are combining forces again! Three hours all on TBS and HBO Max, make sure your DVR is set accordingly!
Backstage interview with Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita.
Renee is now with The Invisible Hand & The Alpha, saying tonight is a huge opportunity in the main event, Konosuke facing Darby Allin for THE AEW World Championship. Konosuke could be heading into Double or Nothing as a- Callis stops Renee there to say Konosuke will be heading into Double or Nothing as a DOUBLE champion! But then MJF steps in, apologizes for the interruption but says Renee’s doing a great job. The Scumbag tells Konosuke that while it’s been a minute since the two of them have talked, three years actually, back when MJF beat him… MJF has seen Konosuke develop into truly one of the best wrestlers in the world!
MJF believes that tonight, Konosuke beats Darby for the title, goes to DON to beat Okada, and MJF can’t think of a better match than Konosuke VS MJF Part 2 for the world title. How’s that sound? MJF offers a handshake, Konosuke shakes his hand, but in Japanese, Konosuke tells MJF that he’ll beat the crap out of him. Thankfully, MJF doesn’t know Japanese. Callis says that was a nice pep talk MJF just gave, and MJF says yes, he knows. That kid needs to win, okay? MJF can’t let Darby turn him into some disgusting, bald freak! No offense, Callis looks great. But look, there is only one foolproof way to know MJF won’t be put in that situation.
So if things get hairy… MJF hands over the Dynamite Diamond Ring! Callis smiles, and say she understands what to do with it. But then in steps Andrade. El Idolo takes off his hat to shake out his amazing head of hair, and smiles at MJF. MJF frowns and leaves. Callis says here’s the deal: Takeshita will bring the world title home to the Don Callis Family tonight! Andrade asks, “How you know?” Callis says aye dios mio, he seriously doesn’t know where Andrade learned English. Andrade says one way or another, the next time, that will be HIS title. Callis says yes, he knows, it’s all good. Callis is a man of many talents, but will his family be dripping with gold thanks to a diamond ring?
AEW now announces the Women’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament brackets!
Double or Nothing will see Willow Nightingale, the reigning Queen of Harts, take on Alex Windsor, while we will see Persephone VS Hazuki, Skye Blue vs Sareee, and Mina Shirakawa VS Athena! Champions from around the world are gathering for this tournament, but who will be headed to Forbidden Door, and then All In: London?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Renee Paquette is now with Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong, and Willow Nightingale. Renee commends Cassidy on his part in the 10 Man Tag victory. But it seems that there is even more business to attend to. Cassidy says yes, the team has a shot at THE AEW World Tag Team Championships. It doesn’t matter who it is, they’re getting their shot, but the thing is… They still haven’t decided on which two will be. Kyle says Cassidy & Roddy should go for the gold, but Roddy shouts, “KYYYLE~! Thank you.” Kyle says of course. But that’s cuz he’s got gold to chase for himself!
The same man that put Kyle on the shelf for months is the man that Kyle submitted twice, and will submit again. Jon Moxley, Continental Champion, when are we doing this? Willow says speaking of gold, she is still the TBS Champion. But she is also in the Owen Hart Cup. She won this tournament before, she’ll do it all over again, so that she can have all the gold for herself at All In: London. She knows she can, and she will! Then Conglomeration has it all in order? Cassidy says hold on, there’s something missing. They should do a Word of the Day. Why haven’t they done one in so long? Roddy shouts for “MAAARK~!” And yes, Mark Briscoe returns!
The Sussex County Chicken is all fired up, and he says the Word of the day is reunification! For Mark Briscoe is back with his boys and his girls, The Conglomeration! But he’ll put this plain and simple: Tommaso Ciampa! Next Wednesday, Briscoe’s after your ass, son! You hear him? But before that, Saturday Night Collision is in HIS hometown, Salisbury, Maryland! That’s just 4.4 miles from where Briscoe originated on this earth! They’re gonna conglomerate and it’s gonna be a a hell of a time! Are you ready!? Willow and Kyle are fired up, Briscoe goes wild, and the team heads out. Cassidy admits, that was a lot of yelling.
But while The Conglomeration is ready to go Double or Nothing, will they soon have even more gold in the collection? Or are these high and lofty a little too much even for them?
Six Woman Tag: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds VS The Triangle of Madness!
With the news of both the AEW Women’s World Championship Fatal 4 Way for Double or Nothing, and the Owen Hart Cup brackets, this trios match is about much more than just settling scores! Will the Shining Samurai be just as sharp as Jamie Hayter going into that title match? Or will Thekla, Skye Blue & Julia Hart continue to bring them down by any means necessary?
The trios sort out and Jamie steps up against Thekla as both a rematch from their 1v1 title match, and a preview of what’s to come in the next. They circle, but then Skye CLOBBERS Jamie! Julia steps in, but so do Shida and Windsor! The Triangle throws hands on Shida & The Birds, then triple whip. But all three reverse, a BOOT for Thekla, a DDT for Skye, and a BACKBREAKER for Julia! The fans cheer as The Triangle bails out! Shida goes out to keep after Skye while Windsor goes after Julia. Jamie gets Thekla back in the ring while Shida and Windsor have the Sisters of Sin in the corners of the barriers. The fans cheer as they all rain down fists!
Windsor, Jamie & Shida all go to nine, then wind up for TEN! The fans cheer again while Thekla sputters. Jamie snap suplexes, but Skye ROCKS Shida! Jamie stomps Thekla, Windsor SLAMS Julia off barriers, and Jamie stomps a mudhole in the corner. The ref counts, Jamie lets off, but Skye and Windsor meet while tightrope walking the barriers! Skye and Windsor trade shots, they wobble a bit, then Skye DECKS Windsor! Skye keeps from falling into the crowd, but Jamie gets her! Windsor joins in and the Birds double gorilla press, SNAKE EYES off the apron! The fans fire up, but Thekla is up top! SUPER CROSSBODY onto The Birds!
The fans fire up again and Thekla is feeling it while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Thekla stomps Windsor, CLUBS Jamie, then helps Skye. But Shida runs up, only for Thekla to ELBOW her down! The Triangle has control again, they ROCK Jamie and Shida and Windsor, then send them all to the desk. The Triangle CHOP again and again and again! Then they wind up, but feint chops to SMACK all three off the apron! The Triangle soaks up the cheers and jeers before putting Jamie back in the ring. Thekla brings Jamie up, snapmares her down, then basement SUPERKICKS! Cocky cover, TWO! Thekla drags Jamie to the corner, tags Julia, and Julia runs up to LARIAT! Then she goes side to side to ELBOW Jamie down!
Julia snapmares Jamie to a cover, TWO! Julia is annoyed but she rains down fists. The ref reprimands, Julia stops, but then she sucker punches Windsor! And Shida, too! Julia then drags Jamie over, bumps her off buckles, and tags in Skye. Skye stomps Jamie around, then digs her boot in! The ref counts, Skye stops at 4, then she brings Jamie up. Jamie fires forearms and CHOPS, but Skye THROWS Jamie down by her hair! The ref reprimands again but Skye rains down forearms. Skye snapmares Jamie, mule kicks her, then covers, TWO! Skye frowns but she stomps Jamie down. Skye tags Julia while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Skye whips Jamie into Julia’s grasp, and Skye BLASTS Shida & Windsor while Julia tags Thekla. Julia has Jamie in the TARANTULA, and Skye sends Windsor in for Thekla’s HANGING HEADSCISSORS! Skye runs up to DOUBLE SHOTGUN The Birds! The fans are torn but Thekla says that’s how the Triangle does it, baby! Thekla then aims to MISSILE- NO, Jamie gest under! Thekla lands out, but Jamie BOOTS her down! Jamie looks at Shida, Shida is hesitant, but Shida tags in! The fans cheer as Shida sends Theknla to the corner, then JUMP KNEES! Shida keeps moving, she BLASTS Skye! Julia ROCKS Shida back!
Julia storms in but Shida kicks her and whips her into Thekla! Shida KNEES them both in the corner! Then Shida puts Thekla sideways in the corner, reels Julia in, and she snap suplexes Julia into Thekla! The fans fire up as Shida then suplexes Thekla high and hard! Cover, TWO! Shida stands Thekla up, Thekla swings but Shida ROCKS her first! And ROCKS her again! Thekla wobbles, swings, but Shida catches Thekla for another forearm! Shida runs the ropes but Thekla mule kicks! Thekla SMACKS Shida, then she dodges a boot to DECK Shida! Thekla talks trash on Shida, then drags her up to tag in Julia.
Julia tags Skye, then tag back to Thekla. The Sisters of Sin hit the DOUBLE GOURD BUSTER and DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Thekla hits the bridge, and she aims for the SPIDER SPEAR! Cover, but The Birds CLOBBER The Sisters of Sin onto it! The fans fire up a Windsor DECKS Skye and Jamie HEADBUTTS Julia! The Birds drag Shida to safety, Windsor tags in, and she CLOBBERS Thekla! Windsor CLUBS away, then fires the fans up. Jamie steps in, BOOT RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP COMBO! Basement LARIAT! And then Windsor lifts! Jamie runs up, but Skye trips Jamie! The fans boo but Skye sends Jamie into steel steps!
Thekla sends Windsor into buckles! Tag to Julia before Shida runs up, TAMASHII KNEE on Thekla! Skye SUPERKICKS Shida! Jamie is back to clinch and HAYTBREAKER! Julia runs up, slips around, SOLE FOOD! Julia kips up, but Windsor is there to whip Julia to ropes! Skye tags in before the SPINEBUSTER! Skye SUPERKICKS Windsor, then brings her up! Skye hops on, CODE- NO, Windsor pops free! Skye SUPERKICKS again, but Windsor HEADBUTTS! The fans fire up as Jamie joins in again, and they DOUBLE LARIAT SANDWICH! Then they set Skye up, and Jamie says let’s try this again!
Jamie runs the ropes, but Thekla slides in, BELT SHOT on Jamie!! No question that the ref saw that! The Triangle is disqualified!
Winners: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds, by disqualification
The Toxic Spider doesn’t care about this win, she just wants to do damage! Skye gets Windsor in a DRAGON SLEEPER! The ref stops Thekla from sing the title belt again, so Thekla just takes off her own belt! And she LASHES Windsor while Skye holds her down! More refs rush out here, but Julia MISTS the newbie in the face! Julia stomps away on Jamie, not caring about fines or consequences, either! The fans boo, and Shida is bailing on the Birds? Shida cares more about her chances in that Fatal 4 Way than anything else. But then Willow, Mina, and even Thunder Rosa rush out here! They chase The Triangle off with belts of their own!
The fans cheer as The Babe, the Fighting Gravure Idol & La Mera Mera save the day. But will Jamie make sure Thekla and Shida pay for this at Double or Nothing?
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita!
They say “card subject to change,” and that is true even for the best in the world. Kazuchika Okada’s real family takes priority, but his Don Callis Family brother was more than happy to step up for this opportunity. Will The Alpha already have two belts by the time he and The Rainmaker battle over the International Championship? Or will Darby truly be relentless in his pursuit of being the best fighting champion in AEW history?
The introductions are made, THE belt is raised, and we see who goes to Double or Nothing on top!
