Backstage interview with Paul Wight.

Melissa Santos asks The Giant of the Board of Directors how he’s been enjoying ROH. It’s been fantastic. He is so excited for the future of ROH, it is on fire here. Taya Valkyrie steps in, with Johnny TV, and says he is so right. She’s so excited to have Wight here, he is doing a fantastic job. Plus, he’s Hollywood, they’re Hollywood, legends recognize legends. Johnny also agrees, ROH is on fire, Johnny’s on fire, Taya’s on fire. In fact, Johnny’s so hot, he feels he deserves a shot at Mark Briscoe.

Wight says firstly, thank you for the compliments. And yes, he agrees, Johnny’s been on fire. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, so Johnny will get his match. Johnny & Taya are fired up, but are they about to be cooled off real quick?

 

ROH World Championship: Mark Briscoe VS Johnny TV w/ Taya Valkyrie!

The Sussex County Chicken’s been on a roll at the top of ROH, but so has his challenger. Johnny Loves Taya, but Johnny also loves winning, so will he love becoming THE top of ROH? Or will Johnny fail to #ManUp and dethrone the champ?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who stays hot this Summer!

The Code of Honor is skipped as the two just egg each other on. The bell rings, the fans rally up, and the two circle. They tie up, go around, and Mark wrenches to a wristlock.

Robbie Eagles speaks.

It was after the show last Thursday when The Sniper of the Skies said, “I would say that was a tough workout there. But ROH really didn’t give me much competition, and this ain’t the first time that I’ve been here. TMDK is here in ROH, Robbie Eagles is here in ROH, and I want harder matches. I want more meaningful matches. I’ve done it in Japan, I’ve done it all over Australia, but now I want ROH gold! And I think, because I watch so much of it, I could be the Champion of Television. Atlantis Jr, you have what I want. I’m challenging you for the ROH World TV title. Will you accept? Or will you let me prove that The Mighty Don’t Kneel?”

 

Lio Rush VS Blake Christian!

Speaking of doing it big in Japan and in the US, The Bad Child and #ALLHEA(R)T are both back here in ROH, and they’re both looking to continue where they left off. Will Lio make himself the Man of the Hour once again? Or will Blake heat up and fight his way to the top?

The Code of Honor is upheld, the fans cheer, and Blake wheelbarrows right at the bell! Victory roll, TWO!! Lio escapes just in time, and Blake says he almost had Lio! Blake takes a swipe but Lio jumps the sweep, then runs, redirects, but Blake keeps up! The fans cheer and Lio says okay. Lio runs, redirects, but Blake still corners him! Lio slips around to roll Blake up, TWO! Blake kicks low, whips him, but Lio reverses to kick low in return. Lio brings Blake up, goes to the ropes, then goes up and around, only for Blake to block the whip! Blake whips, Lio reverses, but Blake goes up and over to FLYING-MARE!

Lio gets up, comes back, whips, but Blake reverses! Lio reverses back and sends Blake out of the ring! Then Lio goes to the apron so he can ASAI MOONSAULT! Direct hit but Lio keeps on moving! Lio goes into the ring to run and DIVE! Another direct hit and Blake hits railing! The fans fire up and Lio stands, the ring count starting. Lio puts Blake in the ring at 4 of 20, then follows. The fans rally and duel as Lio back suplexes. Blake lands out, CLAWS Lio’s eyes, but he hides it from the ref! Blake puts Lio in a corner, defends his innocence to the ref, but Lio runs back at him! Lio blocks a boot but Blake ENZIGIRIS!

Lio staggers, Blake somersaults and PELES the arm! Lio bails out and clutches that arm, but now Blake runs to DIVE! Direct hit at the ramp and Lio tumbles! Lio holds his arm and Blake mockingly applauds. Blake storms up to Lio, wrenches that bad arm, and then hammerlocks the arm, so that he can RAM Lio against the apron! Blake scoops Lio, still holding the hammerlock, so he can POST Lio’s arm! The fans boo Blake, the ring count is climbing, but Blake puts Lio in at 13. Blake drags Lio up to wrench the arm, then he RAMS shoulders! Blake taunts Lio as the fans rally up, and Lio grinds his forearm into Blake’s face.

Blake takes a swing but Lio ducks it, and he CHOPS in return! And CHOPS again! And then KICKS a leg! And KICKS again! Blake goes to a corner, Lio whips but Blake blocks! The bad arm jams, and then Blake KICKS it! Lio comes back but Blake dodges to BOOT him in the corner! Blake whips corner to corner, Lio slides to a stop! Lio boots but Blake blocks! Blake clinches to SPINEBUSTER! Cover, TWO! The fans rally, but Blake has the arm to drag Lio around. Blake traps one arm, and he stands on the other to STOMP it! The ref checks Lio as he writhes, but Lio refuses to quit. So Blake drags Lio up and goes for the arm!

Lio rolls, slides under, and he UP KICKS! Blake rebounds, into a SPANISH FLY! Cover, TWO!! Blake survives and the fans fire up for “LIO!

The fans fire up as Blake survives, and Lio says it’s HIS time! Lio goes up a corner, but Blake rolls away to the apron. The fans are torn but Lio hops back down.

Blake handsprings through but Lio waistlocks! But Blake wrenches out! Blake whips, but Lio rebounds! RUSH- NO, Blake stops traffic to waistlock again. Lio slips under, shoves Blake, but Blake handsprings to NEURALIZER KICK! Lio tumbles out of the ring while fans rally up!

Blake takes aim, builds speed, and he FOSBURY FLOPS! Into a gut wrench! TOMBSTONE to the floor!! The fans again say “HE HAS NO HEART!” as Blake shows no mercy. Blake puts Lio in, aims again, and he springboards to 450 SPLASH!! Cover, TWO?!? Lio survives and Blake is shocked! The fans rally up as hard as they can, but Blake pie faces Lio. Blake kicks Lio around, but Lio drags himself up. Blake kicks him again, so Lio LARIATS! The fans fire up as Lio rises up! Lio bobs ‘n’ weaves, then fires off fast hands from all sides! Lio ROCKS Blake, but Blake BOOTS Lio! Blake reels Lio in to scoop, but Lio slips free! Lio ducks ‘n’ dodges, RUSH HOUR!! Victory roll, LIO WINS!

Winner: Lio Rush, by pinfall

Blake is fast, but Lio proves he’s just a step faster. They keep the Code of Honor, only for Blake to push through Lio’s bad arm! The fans boo, but will Blake just keep turning up that heat until he’s blazing a trail to the top? Will Lio still be the Man of the Hour even then?

 

Athena is here!

The Fallen Goddess struts her way out, Billie Starkz following behind her. They go to the ring, the fans chanting “FOREVER! FOREVER!” Athena holds up her ROH Women’s World Championship, and has a mic to say, “Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you… ME~!” The fans cheer and Athena says this is the first-ever live Minion Training Session, brought to you by MIT, Minions In Training. And then that accursed whistle returns. Athena blows it at Billie, and Billie goes right into doing sit-ups. Athena keeps talking, saying she will tell us how we got here. The fans count for Billie, but Athena says Billie’s gonna do those forever.

Anyway, Athena says “we got here for a very particular reason. Me as a Minion Overlord, my generosity spreads to ALL the Minions. But I took two Minions under my wing. Minion 400,237 & Three-Quarters…” Billie takes a moment to wave, then goes back to sit-ups. Don’t do that! Double-time! And then of course, Minion Bestie, Lexy Nair~! Billie stops to asks where even is Lexy, and why isn’t Lexy training? Athena says Lexy is not training because Lexy did not lose Athena’s ROH women’s World Television Championship! Sit-ups, Minion, let’s go! And Lexy is just so superb. She’s the ideal Minion!

“Let’s face it. Lexy is the only reason why I retained my championship at Death Before Dishonor!” Billie stops because she, as well as everyone else, knows that is not true. The fans still chant “FOREVER! FOREVER!” and Athena blows the whistle! FEEL THE BURN, MINION! Sorry about her. But Lexy is also the reason why Athena no longer has to deal with the “porcelain queen hussy,” Aminata. Now Athena is moving on to bigger and better. Like becoming the longest reigning champion in ROH, period! The fans cheer and Athena thanks them.

“And let’s face it, every porcelain hussy in the back is afraid of the most dominant champion in all of wrestling, the Fallen Goddess-” WAIT! Is that Abadon!? The Living Dead Girl’s music plays, but Abadon slips in from the crowd side! Athena talks smack, but gets tired of waiting. This is what she means! Everyone is afraid- Athena stops talking as she turns around to see Abadon! Athena composes herself, but then Abadon SHRIEKS! Athena bails out, but she left the belt behind… Athena reaches out and Abadon dares her to get it. Athena snatches the belt and hurries away. Athena asks where Billie was on that! Billie apologizes, she didn’t see Abadon, either!

The Fallen Goddess is already seeing Abadon is no porcelain hussy, but will she be seeing a lot more of Abadon, both in the ring an din her nightmares?

 

The Conglomeration speaks.

Mark Briscoe is with “Big Time” Tomohiro Ishii, and they are conglomerating hard as usual. Now, let’s talk about what he did earlier tonight. He shared the ring with one of the most innovative men in this business, the man that can walk on his hands and spin on his pants, Johnny TV! Mark tells Johnny, “It was an honor, my man! It was an honor. But the champion is still the champion, I picked up the victory. But I’m not here to talk about any victories that I’ve won. I’m here to talk about a loss that I suffered just a few weeks ago in front of hundreds of thousands of people on live TV, on AEW Dynamite, Wednesday night.

“The Beast Mortos pinned me 1-2-3 in the middle of the ring. I’m not a man to sit here and make excuses. So Mortos, truth be told, you have earned a shot at this title! But hell with that! I’m insisting on gettin’ your ass in the ring! I want the shot at the beast! Because I need my comeuppance, baby! The word of the day is, believe it or not, is recapitulation! So lemme, I need to talk to the ROH officials, I need to talk to Paul Wight! Lemme recapitulate! I need The Beast Mortos one-on-one! I’m putting the title on the line! I want yo’ ass, beast! I’m comin’ for you, beast! HUH!? Are you ready?! RAAAA~!”

The Chicken is fired up, but will he be ready for the monstrous minotaur when the gold is on the line?

 

MXM Collection speaks.

Mansoor says, “The Runaway of Honor fans have been loving MXM Collection. And even though The Esports Arena is usually filled with man-children who smell of Doritos and Mountain Dew, the Tip Touchers have been coming out in full force. We want to thank all of you for coming and supporting us.” Mansoor trails off as Maria Kanellis-Bennett and protege, Griff Garrison, step in. Maria says she is supporting them. She knows they know there is an owner of ROH, and a Board of Directors, but did they know that there is a First Lady of Honor? Let her introduce herself. She is Maria Kanellis-Bennett, THE First Lady of ROH.

And she had an idea for MXM. Let’s take her “baby boy,” and turn this tag team into a menage a trois. Oh, French! Fancy~. And Mason Madden sees that young “Griffith” has long legs, all his teeth, and long, luxurious hair. He’s like a cat, with hair. But Mansoor asks Griff this. If MXM were to… present their tips… What would Griff do? Maria nods, and Griff… PULLS THEIR FINGERS!? NO!!! What is wrong with Griff!? Is he a brute?!? You do not just grab a tip like that! MXM storms off and Maria says just touch tips! Really? It wasn’t a- NO! Not that, at all! Oh, okay, sorry. But the advice is too little too late, will Maria be able to smooth things over with MXM?

 

Mask For Mask: Serpentico VS Griff Garrison w/ Maria Kanellis-Bennett!

It’s been months on end that SNAKEMAN has been without his volt green mask, and this is the last straw! Serpentico made a deal with The First Lady of Honor: If Serpentico wins, he gets his mask back and washes his hands of this; but if Serpentico loses, he gives up wearing masks FOREVER! Everything is bigger in Texas, so is Serpentico going to have the biggest win or the biggest loss of his career here tonight?

Oh wait, Serpentico DIVES onto Griff as Griff & Maria make their entrance! The fans fire up, Maria is upset, but Serpentico whips Griff into railing! And then more railing! The fans cheer, Serpentico drags Griff up, and Serpentico whips Griff into more railing! The ref checks Griff, he clutches an arm, but Maria taunts Serpentico with the green mask. The distraction allows Griff to get up, and he ROCKS Serpentico! Griff goes to the ring, but Serpentico drags him back out! Serpentico winds up and CHOPS! The fans chant “ONE MORE TIME!” but Maria says no, no more times! Serpentico CHOPS again and the fans cheer!

Serpentico drags Griff up again, brings him around, and CHOPS! The ref says get this in the ring, the match hasn’t even started! Serpentico says hold on, and he takes aim at Griff. Serpentico runs up, but Maria stands in his way! Maria says no you don’t, Serpentico! The fans boo but Serpentico says okay. So he runs up anyway! Maria moves, and Griff FLAPJACKS Serpentico off steel! Maria mockingly asks if Serpentico is alright, and Griff takes a victory lap of sorts. Griff then goes back for Serpentico, brings him up, and THROWS him into the steel steps! Maria tells the ref to be patient, they’ll get in the ring.

Griff puts Serpentico in, the fans rally for Serpentico, and Griff rolls in. The bell rings, this is finally a match! Griff gives Serpentico some ground ‘n’ pound, then lets off to soak up heat. Serpentico stirs, the fans rally, and Serpentico fires hands! Griff stomps Serpentico down! Griff drags Serpentico up, puts him in a corner, and CHOPS! Serpentico sputters but Griff mockingly says, “One more time!” Griff winds up, but pokes Serpentico in the eyes! The ref reprimands and the fans boo more, but Griff whips Serpentico corner to corner hard! Serpentico flops down, Griff covers, ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer but Griff is annoyed.

Serpentico rises as the fans rally, but Griff drags him up. Serpentico fires hands! And a CHOP! Serpentico staggers, but comes back to JAWBREAKER! Serpentico whips, Griff reverses, but Serpentico UPPERCUTS! Griff dodges the lariat to atomic FACEBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Serpentico survives and Maria complains, but the fans rally up. Griff scuffs Serpentico, but Serpentico fires body shots. Griff BOOTS Serpentico down! Griff then hauls Serpentico up, torture racks, TOWER HACKER BOMB!! High stack, TWO!! Serpentico survives again and the fans fire up! Griff is stunned, but Maria taunts Serpentico more.

Griff aims from a corner, and Serpentico eggs him on! So Griff spins, IVY LEAGUE DISCUS!! Cover, TWO?!?! Serpentico survives and Maria is furious! Griff can’t believe it, either, so Maria says to finish him! Griff storms around, drags Serpentico up, but Serpentico flops back over! Maria says call it, he’s out! But no, Serpentico tells the ref he can still fight! The fans rally for Serpentico, Griff aims, but Serpentico falls, IVY LEAGUE DISCUS hits the ref!!! The fans lose their minds, as does Griff! But Maria says this is perfect! She brings Griff a chair! Griff takes the chair, wedges it in a corner, and Maria smiles.

But wait! Here comes Angelico! The South African Stud is supposed to be banned from ringside, but that’s only with the ref conscious! Maria and Angelico argue, but Angelico has slipped a chair of his own into the ring. Griff drags Serpentico up, whips, but Serpentico reverses! Griff hits chair back first! And Serpentico JAMS the chair into the baby boy’s baby boys! Then Serpentico gets Angelico’s chair, and the fans chant “DO IT! DO IT!” Serpentico says okay, and he NUT-CHAIR-TOS Griff!! The fans are thunderous as Serpentico hides the evidence! Serpentico covers, the ref is still out! Serpentico would’ve won twice over!

Angelico revives the ref, the ref sees the cover, and finally a count! TWO?!?! Griff survives and Maria is furiously shouting for him to fight! “This is Awesome!” as Griff stirs. Serpentico glares at Griff, both men crawl over, and Serpentico fires a haymaker! Griff gives one back! The ref is too tired to reprimand over closed fists. Serpentico ROCKS Griff, Griff ROCKS Serpentico! Serpentico ROCKS Griff again! Griff ROCKS Serpentico again! Serpentico fires a flurry! Griff shoves, Serpentico spins, but into a BOOT! Griff pulls off Serpentico’s mask!! The fans boo, how could he! But wait, Serpentico had a second mask underneath, just in case!

The fans fire up as Griff sees that! Serpentico runs up, COMPLETE SHOT!! Then Serpentico hurries up a corner! The fans are thunderous as he FROG SPLASHES!! Cover, Serpentico wins!!

Winner: Serpentico, by pinfall (gets his mask back)

Maria is stunned! She thought she and Griff were gonna cheat the snake again, but Serpentico comes away vindicated! All masks back in hand, will Spanish Announce Project use this to finally go looking for some belts?

 

Backstage interview with Athena & Billie Starkz.

Melissa is now with Overlord and Minion, and brings up how they were taken aback by Abadon, maybe even afraid. Athena seethes before she snaps at Melissa, “I’m not afraid of anybody!” Athena tells Billie to go get the car, they are not dealing with this hussy, nor that “spooky b*tch.” Billie heads out, and Athena says she is the Forever Champion, the Minion Overlord, The Fallen Goddess, and the inspiration to every women’s division in wrestling! She’s the ROH Gatekeeper, The REAL Alpha, the American Joshi, and SO MUCH MORE! How dare “Not Lexy” says Athena is scared of some spooky, zombie… THING!

So she’ll just pretend that question wasn’t asked, and is getting out of here. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, will hate lead to suffering? And suffering for who?

 

ROH Pure Championship Proving Ground Match: Lee Moriarty VS Action Andretti!

Shane Taylor Promotions have been looking for a fight with Top Flight, and the opening salvo is #TAIGASTYLE daring The Sight to See to step up to the plate. But will Lee regret giving Action this opportunity? Or will he check a contender off the list?

The judges for this match are Jerry Lynn, Christopher Daniels & Paul Wight. The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and we’re on the block. The two circle, tie up, and Lee cording holds then wrenches to a wristlock. Lee spins Action and wrangles him, then keeps on the hand. Action kips up, grabs ropes to flip through, but the ref says that counts as his first ropebreak! Action is confused, but Lee wrenches Action again! Action rolls, handsprings, and cartwheels to wrench, snapmare and ghost pin! TWO, but Action has the cording hold. The fans cheer, but Lee fights up and powers Action back.

Lee whips but Action reverses to wrangle Lee again. Lee fights up, wrenches and reaches back, headlock and punch! Lee sneaks one past the ref, and he wrangles Action again! BORDER CITY STRETCH! Action scrambles and grabs the ROPEBREAK! Lee lets go but he’s already got Action down to his last one at just past a minute! Lee then puts Action in a corner to CHOP! The fans rally, Lee whips corner to corner, but Action goes up and over, keeps on moving, then ducks ‘n ‘dodges to tilt-o-whirl RANA! And then DROPKICK! The fans cheer and Action watches Lee. Action goes to ropes to IMPLODER TORNILLO! Cover, TWO!

Lee goes to a corner, but Action runs up to CHOP! Lee puts Action in the corner, but Action dodges to CHOP! Action facelocks, but Lee wrenches free to WRING the arm! Lee drags Action up, knees him low over and over, then BOOTS him to a corner. Lee SPLASHES, then HALF HATCHES! Float and cover, TWO! Action stays in this but Lee holds onto the wrist. Lee stands on the arm, flexes, then STOMPS the arm! The fans rally, Lee wrenches the arm and bends fingers! Action fights up, but Lee slips around to have a COBRA TWIST! Action endures, Lee also has a wristlock so that both arms are trapped!

Action stomps his way forward, powers out, and has the ROPEBREAK! Lee grins, he has Action where he wants him! Lee UPPERCUTS Action, spins him, but Action cradle counters! TWO, Action blocks a kick and spins Lee. Lee tries again but Action ducks the kick to ENZIGIRI! The fans fire up and Action gets moving! Action ducks ‘n’ dodges to DECK Lee! And DECK again! And wrench to BACKBREAKER then NECKBREAKER! Action kips up and fans fire up! Action aims, runs in, but Lee puts him on the apron. Lee ROCKS Action, the ref says that’s a closed fist! Lee shrugs, there goes his one warning.

Lee builds speed, but Action jumps over the slide! Lee sweeps, Action jumps over that to ARABIAN PRESS! The fans fire up and Lee goes down in a heap! Action brings Lee up, whips, but Lee reverses to put Action in. But Action builds speed! Action DIVES and direct hit at the ramp! The fans fire up and Action puts Lee in! Action aims from a corner, springboards, and FLYING LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Lee survives as we reach the five minute mark! Action turns Lee over in a TEXAS CLOVERLEAF! The fans fire up as Lee endures! Lee powers up, crawls forward, and he is conflicted. But he has three, so he uses a ROPEBREAK!

The fans cheer, Action lets go, and Lee UP KICKS him! Action comes back, but Lee FLAPJACK HOTSHOTS Action! Lee reels Action in, for the FANG, into the BORDER CITY STRETCH!! Action crawls, reaches out, but he remembers he has no ropebreaks to save him! And Lee rolls Action away from ropes anyway! Action endures, fights, still wants the ropes, but the ref reminds him there’s no breaks! Action can’t hold out anymore, he TAPS! Lee wins!

Winner: Lee Moriarty, by submission (denies Action Andretti a title opportunity)

At 6:20, Lee puts Action away! He still gives Action the Code of Honor handshake after, if only just barely. But with this, #TAIGASTYLE fires the first shot at Top Flight! Will Darius & Dante Martin make sure to fire right back in tag action?

 

Leyla Hirsch speaks.

“People know me as a wrestler. But the reality of it is, I’ve always been a fighter. I’ve always been underestimated over and over again because of my size. In the first-ever female Texas Deathmatch, I proved I’m one of the best. Diamante, you took me to the limit, and you gave me the fight of my life. But when my back is against the wall, I always find a way to get back on top. This is a message to the locker room. I am way more than meets the eye. And if you step up, I’m gonna show you just how legit I am.” Leyla has spoken, who will be smart enough to listen?

 

ROH World Television Championship: Atlantis Jr. VS Robbie Eagles!

Part one of a “double main event” is here as the second generation luchador is now in the sights of The Sniper of the Skies! While Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls are DUAL IWGP Heavyweight & NJPW Strong Openweight Tag Team Champions, and while Zack Sabre Jr. is going after the G1 Climax trophy, could Robbie be bringing home some gold here in ROH? Or will he be washed away by Atlantis Jr?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if the crossover continues, or just changes channels!

The Code of Honor is not upheld as Robbie kicks Atlantis’ hand away. The bell rings, Atlantis runs up but Robbie ducks to whip. Eagles drops, hurdles, keeps moving, but Atlantis hurdles. Robbie handsprings over and the fans cheer. They go again and Atlantis tilt-o-whirls to RANA! Robbie handsprings through, wrenches and runs to go up and around to arm-drag! Atlantis gets up, Robbie runs in, but into a pop-up KICK! Cover, ONE!! Robbie is tougher that that but Atlantis fireman’s carries him. Robbie fights and slips to the apron. Atlantis blocks an enzigiri to GAMANGIRI Robbie! Atlantis then runs, but Robbie slingshots up and over!

Robbie comes back and he DIVES! Cannonball Run tope and the fans fire up! Robbie brings Atlantis up as the ring count starts. Robbie brings Atlantis around the way to CHOP! Atlantis sputters, the fans are torn, but Robbie refreshes the count. Robbie soaks up the heat and stands Atlantis up. Robbie SLAPS Atlantis, the fans chant “YOU STILL SUCK!” Robbie puts Atlantis in, mocks the fans, then runs to basement DROPKICK! Cover, TWO!

The fans are torn as Robbie covers, TWO! Robbie sits Atlantis up to go for the mask! The fans boo this, the ref reprimands, but Robbie rains down fists! Robbie stomps Atlantis, the fans again chant “YOU STILL SUCK!” Robbie brushes that off to drop a knee on Atlantis! Cover, TWO! Robbie drags Atlantis around by a leg, stomps away on the leg, then UPPERCUTS the thigh! Robbie steps through, but Atlantis BOOTS Robbie to a corner!

The fans rally, Atlantis runs but only gets buckles! Robbie CHOPS Atlantis, then wrenches and whips. Atlantis reverses, Robbie goes up but Atlantis PELES him out of the air! Robbie staggers, comes back, but Atlantis blocks a kick to SUPERKICK! Gut wrench and tuck! BASTARD DRIVER! Then a WHEELBARROW GERMAN! Cover, TWO!! Atlantis must’ve been watching Konosuke Takeshita in the G1 there. Atlantis drags Robbie to a drop zone, then goes up the corner. The fans fire up for some Latino Heat! FROG SPLASH FLOPS as Robbie moves! The fans boo, but then rally up as Robbie takes aim from the apron.

Atlantis staggers up, runs at Robbie, but Robbie GAMANGIRIS! Springboard, MISSILE DROPKICK to the legs! Atlantis writhes, Robbie rolls him, into the RON MILLER SPECIAL!! Atlantis endures the trailer hitch style hold, and he fights around! Atlantis reaches out, but Robbie drags him back! Atlantis is in deep waters, but he still swims his way forward! Robbie puts as much pressure as he can, but Atlantis has the ROPEBREAK! Robbie lets go at 4, to drop KNEES on the legs! The fans boo but Robbie drags Atlantis around. Robbie steps through, but Atlantis BOOTS him! Robbie KICKS away again, then hits a spinning toehold!

Robbie runs., but Atlantis stands! Tilt-o-whirl BACKBREAKER! Both men are down and the fans fire up again! The fans rally with “LUCHA! LUCHA!” and Atlantis rises. Robbie is after him but Atlantis fires a forearm! Robbie hits back! The forearms go back and forth, and then both men stand. Atlantis fires another forearm, Robbie fires another, but Atlantis fires a flurry! Only for Robbie to KNEE low! Robbie runs, into a drop toehold! Atlantis steps over, LA MAGISTROL! TWO!! Robbie escapes but Atlantis scoops again! Robbie slips free, slips around, SCHOOLBOY BRIDGE! TWO!! Atlantis stands to SUPER- NO, Robbie blocks!

Robbie fires a flurry, hooks Atlantis up, TURBO BACKPACK! Cover, TWO!! Atlantis survives but Robbie basement SUPERKICKS! Atlantis flops around, Robbie goes up! 450- NO, Robbie has to roll through as Atlantis moves! SUPERKICK! Atlantis runs up but Robbie kicks the leg! SHIRA- NO, Atlantis stops that! A shove, a tilt-o-whirl, and a TORTURE RACK! Atlantis makes Robbie suffer the Argentine Backbreaker, and then the RACK DROP! Atlantis holds on to the torture rack, and Robbie TAPS! Atlantis wins!

Winner: Atlantis Jr, by submission (still ROH World Television Champion)

Atlantis celebrates, and he says this win was for the fans! Atlantis still wants to show Robbie respect, and he offers that Code of Honor. Robbie is reluctant, but he shakes Atlantis’ hand. The fans cheer, will we see Robbie take aim at belts in ROH and AEW in the near future? Will Atlantis make this one of the best runs between ROH, AEW and CMLL?

 

Paul Wight speaks.

“What an exciting time to be an ROH fan! ROH fans, we just saw our World Heavyweight Champion, Mark Briscoe, defeat Johnny TV! And Mark Briscoe has recapitulated to me many times that he is upset over being pinned by The Beast Mortos on Dynamite. So he’s come to me and wants to face The Beast Mortos. The Beast Mortos now, next week, is gonna get a championship opportunity against our World Heavyweight Champion, Mark Briscoe.” But in steps Tony Nese to complain. They’re just giving away opportunities to people who don’t deserve it!

The Premier Athletes have been the MVPs of ROH! Nese points out Daivari just took Shibata too the limit! Wight points out that Daivari lost. Nese says that’s not the point. Wight says if you think about it, Nese went up against Ishii, and lost. Well, Mark Sterling is in a trainer’s room because Shibata decided to attack a non-competitor. That should be a fine or suspension! But no~, the company’s too busy giving away opportunities! Wight understands the frustrations, so how about this? Nese has a match against Lio Rush. Nese wins, then we can talk title opportunities. Oh, so Nese has to again prove himself.

Fine! Against Lio Rush, Nese will be the giant in this match. Thanks for the lay-up. Wight sighs, but will The Bad Child be dunking on the OG Premier Athlete soon enough?

 

ROH World Six Man Tag Team Championships: Dustin Rhodes & The Von Erichs VS The Cage of Agony!

Though their reign is still young, the heroes of Texas are being tested like never before! Dustin, Marshall & Ross are going up against perhaps THE most dominant ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions ever! Can these Cowboys of Honor survive one more night as champions? Or will they fail to escape the Cage of Agony?

The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and we see who’s truly the best trio in ROH today!

The trios sort out and Ross starts against Bishop Kaun. The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the fans rally up for “VON ERICHS! VON ERICHS!” Ross and Kaun circle, tie up, and go around. Kaun wrenches an arm, but Ross rolls, kips up, and breaks free. Ross then hits a judo throw, but Kaun fights right up to wristlock. Kaun wrangles Ross, the fans rally, but Kaun bends fingers. Ross rolls back, wrenches Kaun then kicks, KICKS, and brings him over. Tag to Marshall, the Von Erichs whip and DROPKICK! Not the cleanest, but here comes Toa Liona! The Von Erichos dodge to DOUBLE DROPKICK!

Liona tumbles out, Marshall KICKS Kaun and ROCKS him in a corner. Marshall scoops Kaun to SLAM him! Then STANDING MOONSAULT! Cover, ONE!! Kaun is tougher than that, but Marshall wrenches and whips. Marshall runs up, Kaun BOOTS him! Kaun then runs to LARIAT Marshall down! Tag to Liona, then Liona tags Cage. The Gates of Agony stand Marshall up and whip him to a corner. Liona sends Kaun in, he SPLASHES! Cage LARIATS, and then they send Marshall to Liona for another LARIAT! The fans boo but The Machine soaks it up. Cage bumps Marshall off buckles, and RAMS into him!

Cage stands Marshall up to CHOP him, ROCK him, then he tags Kaun. Kaun CHOPS Marshall but Marshall fights back! That just gets him mugged! Kaun suplexes Marshall, Marshall slips free to roll up, ONE!! Kaun winds up, Marshall dodges, hot tag to Ross! Ross BOOTS Kaun! And BOOTS again! Ross RANAS Kaun and the fans fire up! Kaun goes to a corner, Ross runs up, JUMP KICK! Ross HIP TOSSES Kaun, and then he PENALTY KICKS! The fans fire up, Ross runs, but Cage trips him up! The fans boo but Kaun CLUBS Ross! Kaun whips Ross, Ross KICKS back! Ross runs, but now Liona DUMPS him out!

The fans boo but the ref has to keep Dustin and Marshall back! Cage CLOBBERS Ross! Cage puts Ross in for Kaun, Kaun covers, TWO! Tag to Liona, then Kaun CHOPS Ross! The Gates of Agony bring Ross out to double hip toss, into a cradle and DOUBLE POWERBOMB! Ross sputters, but Liona stands on his neck! The ref counts, Liona lets off, and the fans rally again. Liona looms over Ross but Ross fires body shots. Liona KNEES Ross low! Liona whips, then he ELBOWS Ross down! The fans boo as Liona stares Dustin down. Liona drags Ross away from Dustin and Marshall to TOSS to the corner of Agony!

Tag to Cage, he stomps away on Ross. The ref counts but Cage digs his boots in. Cage lets off to get in the ref’s face, which lets Kaun and Liona CHOKE Ross! The ref again has to stop Dustin and Marshall, which lets Cage stomp away on Ross! The fans boo but Cage drags Ross up. Cage scoops Ross to SLAM him! Then Cage drops a BIG elbow! Cover, ONE, but Cage does push-ups to show off. Cage flexes, the fans boo, but Cage drags Ross from his corner. Tag to Kaun and he stomps Ross. Cage soaks up the heat from the fans, and Kaun scoops Ross to SLAM him! Kaun has a cocky cover, TWO! Kaun stomps Ross more!

Tag to Liona, the stomps continue, but Liona clamps onto Ross with a shoulder claw! The fans rally and Ross endures, because Von Erichs know all about claws. LIona CLUBS Ross, KNEES him low, then whips him to a corner. Liona BLASTS Marshall, then runs in at Ross! Ross dodges, Liona hits POST! Liona staggers back, Ross crawls, hot tags to Cage and Dustin! The Natural dodges and LARIATS! And LARIATS! Dustin whips, Cage reverses but Dustin says “Not Today!” RHODES UPPERCUT! Atomic drop, and a BOOT! Cage staggers, into the BULLDOG! Kaun runs up but into a SNAP POWERSLAM!

Liona runs up, Dustin dodges to GERMAN SUPLEX! Cage runs up, but into a dragon sleeper! CROSS RHODES!! Cover, KAUN BREAKS IT! Kaun saves Cage, and gives Dustin an AIR RAID CRASH! Ross runs up to V-TRIGGER Kaun! Liona POP-UP SAMOAN DROPS Ross! Marshall DISCUS LARIATS Liona! But Cage fireman’s carries Marshall, F5!! Dustin is back but Cage SUPERKICKS! Fireman’s carry for Dustin, and F- DESTROYER!! Dustin pops that one outta nowhere! Cover, TWO!! Cage survives but the fans are thunderous for Dustin & The Von Erichs! They all call their shots, but a SWARM gets in the ring!!

Winners: Dustin Rhodes & The Von Erichs, by disqualification (still ROH World Six Man Tag Team Champions)

The fans boo as The Dark Order AND The Undisputed Kingdom are beating up on Team Texas!!Evil Uno, John Silver, Alex Reynolds, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett are all beating up on the heroes because they’re just villains! But here comes Sammy Guevara! He fires off SUPERKICK after SUPERKICK, only for Bennett to go after him! Sammy tries to fight, but this is 8v4! There’s just no way! WAIT! Here comes Fuego Del Sol & Spanish Announce Project! More heroes tip the scales, but that still makes this 8v7, the villains are still winning out! Dustin, Sammy, The Von Erichs, and the rest are all getting choked out and stomped out!

Security rushes the ring, but they get beat up just as bad! The fans boo, but Kaun & Liona CLOSE THE GATES! And then The Dark Order get Ross up, for the PENDULUM BOMB!! Dustin tries to help his friends, but he gets beat down by The Dark Order. The Kingdom give Sammy the DEATH VALLEY DRIVER and JUST THE TIP of the knee! Cage hauls Fuego up, reels him in, and Gory Especials for the WEAPON X!! Taven climbs, Bennett brings Dustin in, they want to see how #NeckStrong he is! HAIL MARY DRIVER!!! But wait, here come the Board of Directors! Jerry Lynn & Christopher Daniels reprimand everyone, but these evil eight aren’t listening!

The fans boo as Team Texas and their amigos are left laying. When all this chaos sorts out, what will the Fallen Angel have to say about the consequences?


My Thoughts:

A really good ROH but, y’know, when there’s no real commercials, a two hour show is rough to get through, and that’s even with skipping some of the matches. Granted, I can’t really say my reason was “the results were a given,” because in many cases, these title matches tonight had obvious results, too, because this is just weekly TV and not a PPV. But Harley is getting that “new to the show” push, as is Beef. I did skim and Beef got to have a real good showing tonight. That combined with his personality, he and Henry could actually go pretty far, and I really hope JD Drake is along for the ride once he’s healthy.

And of course, who was going to doubt Shibata against Daivari? It’s Shibata! Now, I did appreciate the promo Nese had with Wight to complain about people “being handed” opportunities when he is absolutely wrong about that. Johnny’s match with Mark tonight was because Johnny’s been on a pretty good win streak in ROH, and the magic number around here is six wins in a row. Johnny gets his shot, loses, but he and Mark still had a great match. And Mark VS Mortos next week is going to be great stuff, too, but I would think it’s another win for Mark. Lio VS Blake tonight was great stuff, great win for Lio, and Lio VS Nese will be great, maybe with some WWE 205 Live vibes. Both guys were in the Cruiserweight Division while it was still hot so they can definitely deliver.

Really funny promo with Maria, Griff and MXM. I knew Griff was going to screw up the fingertip thing. Griff VS Serpentico with the masks on the line was a great match, and of course Serpentico wins. On to bigger and better for SAP now. Really good promo from Leyla as she also moves on to bigger and better, maybe an ROH Women’s World TV Championship match at some point. Great promos from Athena and Billie, and to my surprise it wasn’t just Leyla going out there, but hey, Abadon’s always been a great character, and I really like where the feud is going. They also did a great job growing those seeds of dysfunction as Athena is ignoring Billie’s contributions to the group. As I felt last week, this is definitely building towards Final Battle, Athena VS Billie 2: New Champ Boogaloo.

And then a great string of matches at the end to bring us home strong. Lee VS Action was really good, because they were very smart about Action having to get used to Pure Division rules, but also let him still do fairly well within those rules. But I figured Lee would win, and now we wait on the tag match, Darius & Dante VS Shane and I would think Ogogo. And somehow, some way, Top Flight has to win that in order to motivate the Six Man Tag as a tiebreaker/blowoff. Great Television Championship match of Atlantis and Robbie, though Texas really wanted to stick it to Robbie for whatever reason. Atlantis still wins out, he might also hold onto this belt until Final Battle.

And while Mark VS Johnny as the opener was a little surprising to me, it all made sense when the ROH World Six Man Tag titles were the main event. It’s all about the Texas heroes for this Esports Stadium series, but I will commend ROH for making the finish a massive ambush by a lot of Heels. I kinda thought there was going to be one more person coming out to turn the tides, but the only person I could think of was Lance Archer given he’s from Texas. But then, why would the Murderhawk Monster care? He only just got back on AEW TV lately and needs to be a monster Heel in his own right.

So instead, it looks like several trios are coming for the ROH World Six Man belts all at once. And to be fair, I do like the idea of Cage of Agony, Dark Order, Undisputed Kingdom (Roddy joining in of course), and then Fuego joining with SAP as a Face trio in either a Fatal 4 Trios or a battle royal. OR, we just have all five teams battle it out in some wild gauntlet, last team standing are the champs. Because in the latter case, Dustin & The Von Erichs can lose without looking weak. Well, okay, I don’t want to harp too badly on Marshall & Ross, but they aren’t quite the sharpest in there, it kinda holds back these matches. The belts need to be put on another team for right now while The Von Erichs iron out the wrinkles.

My Score: 8.7/10

PLAY BY PLAY

Roman Reigns arrives backstage.

And Adam Pearce catches him right as he exits the car. The Raw General Manager knows Roman is heated from last week but they need to discuss things first. Roman says first off, no, he wants to know where Jacob Fatu is at. And second, don’t you hear the fans already cheering for him? Hit his music! Pearce tries to calm Roman down but has to shout at him first. Jacob Fatu is not here… yet. But Seth Rollins is! Architect and Tribal Chief stare down, and Rollins says Roman is in his way. Roman steps aside, and Rollins’ song hits first! The fans in Omaha, Nebraska sing, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” as Rollins heads to the ring.

But then BRON BREAKKER CLOBBERS ROLLINS! Bron HAMMERS away on Rollins, drags him around, and throws hockey scrum body shots! Bron CLOBBERS Rollins again, then stands him back up so he can gorilla press him! Bron drops Rollins on barriers! Rollins falls back, sputters, but security and producers hurry out here. Bron THROWS security around! Then he drags Rollins up to RAM him into steel steps! Adam Pearce shouts at Bron but Bron drags Rollins into the ring! The refs get Bron to back off, producers check on Rollins, but then Bron breaks through to slip into the ring! SPEAR!!

Bron looms over Rollins while the fans bark. Rollins coughs and sputters while Bron tells him this is just a taste. Bron takes his leave, the damage done. But will he do even worse when the match is on for Backlash?

 

Judgment Day is in the clubhouse.

Liv Morgan says that Stephanie Vaquer is injured, no worrying about her anymore. But now to talk about the not so good news. Like what the hell was Finn doing in here last week?! Roxie doesn’t know, he must be delusional. Liv says she’s not worried about Finn, JD McDonagh finishes this tonight. Liv is worried about Roxie. Why did Finn think it was okay to talk to Roxie? Why didn’t Roxie tell them about it? Why did Liv have to watch it through Netflix to learn about what’s going on? Roxie says she didn’t mention it because she made it clear to Finn. She told him to get out and never come back. But Liv’s right, Roxie should’ve said something.

But don’t worry! Roxie’s loyal to Judgment Day, they know that. Yes, Liv is glad to hear that, because she believes in Roxie. Roxie & Raquel are going to be the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, they just can’t let anything get between the family. Promise Liv that you won’t keep secrets, Roxie. Roxie promises. Promises what…? That she will never keep any secrets from Judgment Day. Good. So they ready? Liv, Dom & JD head out, and Raquel pats Roxie on the head. But will things be (not) fine for Judgment Day?

Finn Balor VS JD McDonagh w/ Dominik Mysterio!

Raw returns as The Irish Ace makes his entrance, Dirty Dom by his side. The bell rings, the two tie up, and JD wrenches to wristlock. JD YANKS the arm, but the fans taunt him as “BOBBLEHEAD! BOBBLEHEAD!” Finn rolls, wrenches, but JD wrangles Finn back down. JD puts on the pressure but Finn kips up to wrench, slip through, and headlock. JD powers up but can’t power out as Finn holds on tight! JD endures, rolls to a cover, ONE! JD headscissors, Finn kips free, and Finn arm-drags! Finn grinds JD with the armlock, but JD fights up. JD rolls, powers Finn to ropes, but the ref counts.

JD backs off slowly, but Dom trips Finn up! The fans boo Dom but then JD RAMS Finn! Dom flexes and soaks up the heat while JD RAMS Finn more. JD lets off so he can soak up heat, then he stalks Finn to another corner. JD CHOPS, then he whips corner to corner. Finn goes up and over to CHOP! And CHOP! And CHOP! Finn warns Dom, but JD turns things around. Finn dodges JD to CHOP him back! Cover, TWO! Finn drags JD up, brings him around, and gives some Latino Heat! JD wrenches free but Finn ducks JD’s lariat to RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Cover, TWO! Finn keeps his eyes on Dom, then goes back to JD.

JD drop toeholds Finn, then runs to drop the leg, brother! Cover, TWO! Finn goes to ropes but JD KICKS his leg! JD KICKS the leg again, then puts the leg on ropes. JD drops a KNEE on the knee! Finn writhes, the fans boo, but Dom applauds as JD YANKS the bad leg. GROUND DRAGON SCREW! JD then drops an ELBOW on the leg, then clamps on a toehold. Finn endures, kicks JD in the back, and the fans rally as both men stand. JD storms up on Finn, whips, but Finn reverses. JD sunset flips, Finn rolls through and basement DROPKICKS! JD goes to ropes, Finn LARIATS him up and out! The fans fire up as Finn builds speed, but Dom trips him up again!

The fans boo as Finn shouts at Dom, but JD CLOBBERS Finn! Finn tumbles out of the ring, but here comes Roxie! The fans boo Judgment Day as Raw goes to break.

Raw returns again and Finn fights up in the headlock. Finn fires body shots, and now the rest of Judgment Day hurries out here. JD CLUBS Finn, whips him, but Finn goes up and- NO, JD catches Finn on the over, but Finn holds onto the ropes! JD pries Finn free, but Finn slips down to dragon sleeper! EYE OF THE HURRICANE! The fans cheer Finn on, but he’s all alone ringside now that it is 5v1! JD and Finn rise up, but Finn ROCKS JD! And ROCKS him again! And again, and again! Finn whips and BACKDROPS JD! JD flounders, Finn trips him to DOUBLE STOMP! The fans cheer Finn as he flexes!

Finn drags JD up, whips him to ropes, but JD reverses. Finn comes back to SLINGBLADE! The fans cheer as Finn aims from a corner. But Dom gets on the apron! Finn DECKS Dom, JD rolls Finn, TWO! JD swings, Finn dodges and CHOPS! Finn runs, but into the SPANISH FLY! Cover, TWO!! Finn survives but just barely! Finn goes to the apron while the fans rally harder and harder. JD storms over, but Finn RAMS into him! Then GAMANGIRIS! Finn goes up, up, but Raquel distracts the ref! Dom shakes the ropes, and Finn falls! The ref realizes something is wrong, so she EJECTS Dom! The fans cheer as things are a bit more even now.

Liv & Dom are upset but JD still drags Finn to a drop zone. JD goes up, up, and MOONSAULTS, but onto knees! Cover, TWO! Finn hurries to SLINGBLADE JD again! The fans rally for Finn while the ladies of Judgment Day coach JD. Liv gets on the apron, but the ref tells her to back off. Liv sneaks something to Roxie! The bell hammer!? Finn SHOTGUNS JD! Roxie has the bell hammer to CRACK Finn!! The fans boo but JD HEADBUTTS Finn! JD falls on the cover, JD wins!

Winner: JD McDonagh, by pinfall

Roxie proves her loyalties by doing Liv’s dirty work, and JD finally gets a win over his old mentor. Is there no hope for Finn against this many enemies?

 

Backstage interview with Seth Rollins.

Jackie Redmond apologizes to The Architect for bothering him, as he is clearly in pain after that vicious assault from Bron Breakker. But what does this mean for Backlash. Will Rollins be okay? Rollins says Backlash is in five days, he’ll be fine. Rollins told “the kid” last week, that if you take your shot, you better be able to finish the job. Rollins ain’t dead yet. Rollins storms off, will he be able to game plan a way to get around Bron’s speed, strength, and ruthless aggression?

 

The Vision regroups backstage.

Bron Breakker says he couldn’t let Rollins go to the ring and get on the mic to bore us all to death. He can’t stand listening to that guy! He’s like a duck! “Quack, quack! I’m the best wrestler in the world! Quack!” Austin Theory joins in, “Lemme sing my song! Quack quack!” Paul Heyman walks in and says, “Is Seth Rollins still breathing?” Bron says yes, he is. Logan Paul says one guy who won’t be is Joe Hendry! Logan’s gonna beat him to a pulp! Logan swears to God, let him get his hands on Hendry and he’ll hospitalize him permanently! PLEASE! Heyman says that’s why tonight, Logan is not fighting Joe Hendry. W-What?!

Heyman says Bron almost got suspended again, Brock Lesnar retired on us, and if Logan were to get his hands on Hendry, he’ll be put in jail for what he does to him! That’s why tonight, it is Joe Hendry VS Austin Theory. Theory says it’s alright, Maverick. If Logan wants Hendry smacked around, Theory will smack him around. If Logan wants Hendry hurt, Theory will hurt him. He’ll put the Pressure on Hendry, and Logan can just watch. Bron says relax, you’re THE Logan Paul. Vision will get ’em all, one by one. They fist bump on that, but will The Vision all be turned into believers soon enough?

 

PENTA & Je’Von Evans VS Rusev & Ethan Page!

After the multiple blindsides the past few weeks, he WWE Intercontinental Champion and the Young OG team up against some common enemies in The Bulgarian Lion and All Ego! But will the power of #CeroMiedo see them through? Or will Rusev CRUSH while Ethan steals everyone’s smile?

Raw returns as Rusev makes his entrance, followed by Ethan’s. The teams sort out and Evans starts against Rusev. They circle while the fans rally, and Rusev picks Evans up! Rusev RAMS Evans into the corner, RAMS him again and again, but stops as the ref counts 4. Rusev snarls, ROCKS Evans, then CLUBS him on the back. Evans flounders but Rusev stands him up.

The fans boo more as Ethan and Rusev mug Evans. Ethan says see, they’re a team! Ethan drags Evans up but Evans CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! The fans “WOO~” but Ethan takes a swing. Evans ducks that to DECK Ethan! Then he ROCKS Rusev, too! Ethan runs up, Evans wrenches and kicks! Evans snap suplexes, kips up, and does the Penta swagger! The fans cheer while Evans taunts Rusev.

Winners: Rusev & Ethan Page, by pinfall

Both Bulgarian Brute and All Ego have sinister grins on their face, and they celebrate their victory! Not too buddy-buddy, of course. But will these two both have their shot at Penta’s Intercontinental Championship?

 

Adam Pearce is in the ring.

“When I was a coach in NXT, my favorite, my absolute favorite days, was when a surefire, can’t-miss, blue chip future superstar saw their dreams come true when they got the opportunity to sign one of these to join Raw or SmackDown. Guys, today is one of those days. Let’s take a look.” The fans cheer as we get a highlight reel of the former NXT Women’s North American & WWE Speed Women’s Champion, and Pearce asks we all welcome the newest Raw superstar, Sol Ruca! Sol makes her entrance with a new song, and high-fives fans as she heads down the ramp. Sol joins Pearce in the ring, grabs herself a mic, and Pearce congratulates her.

The fans cheer and Sol smiles as she takes the contract. “Damn. It is going to feel so damn good when I sign this and officially be a part of Monday Night Raw.” But wait, Becky Lynch is interrupting! Pearce is upset as the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion storms her way to the ring. Becky grabs herself a mic to tell Petty Pearce that she’s been looking for him all day! She was told that THIS would be her time for her Celebration of Greatness! Who told her that?! Doesn’t matter, she knows they were a very credible, reliable source. But point is, after her monumental WrestleMania moment, Pearce came out and illegally sanctioned a match with “Iyo Jennetty.”

Which explicitly went against the parameters of her open challenge! But even with that meddling, Becky won! Uncontroversial because she’s the greatest female wrestler of all time, and it’s not just her saying it, other people say it. Sports Illustrated says it, Bleacher Report says it! Sol asks Becky, “Are you done?!” Becky says no, actually, and she’s also a New York Times best seller. Sol says not everything is about Becky. Becky says okay, okay, Sol is very new here, but the sooner she learns this the better. Everything is about her! Well, not this. Everyone knows who Becky is, we know what Becky’s done and accomplished.

But the thing is, Sol didn’t expect to find out that upon meeting Becky, Becky is exactly what everyone says she is. W-Which is? The Man? The history maker? The ground breaker? No. They say Becky is a rude, big-headed B*TCH! And it’s not just Sol saying it, it’s New York Times, Sports Illustrated- Becky says Pearce may be terrible at her job, but is he really letting Sol talk to her like this?! Becky asks if the fans are letting Sol talk to her like this. “YES!” Becky is flabbergasted but the fans cheer Sol on. Becky ask who even is this, and Sol finishes singing her contract. This is Sol Ruca, and if you ever interrupt her again, not only will Sol kick your ass, but she’ll snatch your soul.

Becky takes a swing, Sol dodges, so the punch hits PEARCE! Oops! Becky apologizes but Pearce is furious! Sol smiles as Becky panics, and then she runs up to use the corner! SOUL SNATCHER! The Man is down! Is Sol about to turn the tides and wash away Becky’s big time ego?

 

The Usos are backstage.

Jackie Redmond catches them as they head for Roman Reigns’ room, and asks them how they’re feeling ahead of the contract signing. Jimmy says it is a big night! Contract signing night between OTC and Samoan Werewolf, and they wouldn’t miss this for nothing. Now, they got a lot of love for Jacob, but Jacob needs to understand how OTC does business, especially when there’s championship gold on the line. Ya feel ’em? Jackie understands, but aren’t they conflicted considering their relationship with both? Jey says nah, Jackie, this right here is family bidness, plain and simple. OTC knows how to handle himself. The Usos are just in case something pops off.

But Jacob, The Usos already told you, Uce! You swimming in deep water now. You bit off more than you can chew. You’re swinging for the fences, though! But they respect that, aight? But Jey is telling you, The Bloodline has been drawn! And at Backlash, you gonna find out who you messing with, Jacob. Good luck, lil’ cousin. YEET. The Usos then step inside Roman’s room. What will the OG Bloodline discuss in regards to this very same family business?

 

Austin Theory w/ The Vision VS Joe Hendry!

The Vision were a bit… triggered, perhaps, by what The Prestigious Joe Hendry joked about during his concert. But will Hendry feel the Pressure here tonight? Or will Omaha be full of believers after tonight?

Raw returns as Hendry continues his concert where it left off! “He’s one amazing athlete, but he’s a piece of trash! He can shove his trading cards directly up his.. Paul! Paul! Can we fire Logan Paul? Everyone! Paul! Paul! Can we fire Logan Paul?” Logan storms out and shouts that he thought he made it clear that Hendry cannot fire Logan Paul! He is UN-FIREABLE! TKO cannot fire Logan, that’s bad business! Logan IS business! Logan is the heart and soul of the WWE! Hendry says he knows Logan is upset, and he’s glad to see Logan, because this part of the song is the apology. It goes like this: “Paul, Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?”

Logan swears to kill Hendry, but Theory runs up! The bell rings, Hendry fires hands, then LAIRATS Theory up and out of the ring! The fans cheer, Logan tells Theory to handle this! Theory and Logan reset, circle, but the Logan shouts at Hendry. That distraction lets Theory CLOBBER Hendry from behind! The fans boo but Theory CLUBS away on Hendry. Theory then clamps onto Hendry to throw hands right into the side of his head! The fans boo more but Theory CLOBBERS Hendry again! Theory & Logan soak up the heat, then Theory slaps Hendry around. Theory scoops to hit a BACKBREAKER! Theory and Logan fire each other up, but the ref has Logan back off.

Theory stands Hendry up, but Hendry UPPERCUTS and CHOPS and repeat! Hendry whips corner to corner, Theory reverses hard, and Hendry falls to the mat. Theory rains down fists, talks trash, but the fans chant, “Logan Sucks! Logan Sucks!” Logan shouts back that he does not, and Theory goes back to Hendry. Theory drags Hendry up, talks trash, and snap suplexes! “Who sucks now?!” The Vision soaks up more heat, then Theory drags Hendry up. Theory talks more trash, but Hendry suplexes Theory now! The fans cheer while Logan is already upset again. Hendry rises, the fans rally behind him, and Hendry fires haymakers!

Hendry whips Theory to ropes to then LARIAT! Theory flounders from taking the “Commonwealth Clothesline,” and Hendry runs to LARIAT in the corner! Hendry keeps moving, but Theory blows past! Only for Hendry to catch him! FALL AWAY SLAM! And then a kip up, for the… TURN! The fans cheer, but LOGAN ATTACKS!

Winner: Joe Hendry, by disqualification

The fans boo but Logan HAMMERS away on Hendry! Logan hands Hendry the win but he snarls as he tells Hendry, “Nobody can fire me!” Hendry fires off fists! Theory goes after Hendry, the fans boo as The Vision mugs Hendry! They stomp and punch away, but here come the Street Profits! Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins again take the fight to The Vision! SUPERKICK for Logan! Then Ford spins Theory around to ENZIGIRI! Dawkins takes Theory for THE SILENCER! The fans pump it up for The Profits, and Dawkins Electric Chair Lifts Theory! Ford climbs up, but BRON runs in! Bron THROWS Ford out of the ring! Then Bron CLOBBERS Dawkins!

The fans bark as Bron then GERMAN SUPLEXES Dawkins! The Unpredictable Badass turns the tides, but SETH ROLLINS trips him up! The fans cheer as Rollins gets revenge with furious fists! Rollins THROWS Bron into steel steps! Rollins stomps away, then they brawl in the ring! Rollins rains down fists while the fans cheer! Rollins BLASTS Logan & Theory off the apron, then LARIATS Bron down! Omaha is erupting as Rollins is shaking the ropes! Rollins aims, but hold on! Ford FLIES out to take out Logan & Theory! But Bron SPEARS Rollins in the distraction! Bron snarls as he tells Rollins he was that close.

Bron leaves Rollins down again, but he’s still roughed up himself. Will either man survive the Backlash?

 

Backstage interview with Judgment Day.

Jackie is now with Liv, Dom, JD, Raquel & Roxie, and brings up them sending a message to Finn. But what is the focus moving forward? Liv says yeah, you saw what they did to Finn tonight, and to Vaquer last week. The focus is getting all the gold and crushing anyone who gets in their way. And this season is all about Raquel & Roxie! Tell her, sister! Raquel warns Brie Bella & Paige that their nostalgia tour was cute for a night, but it’s time to get serious. She wants them both to come to their show, because- Bayley & Lyra Valkyria step in, and The Role Model says, “Well, well, well. Wouldya look at here? Can anyone in the Judgment Day get anything done on their own?”

Bayley has known them all for so long and she is just finally getting it. Lyra says they weren’t gonna forget what happened to them last week, either. If they’re such a big happy family, then they won’t be afraid to take them on. Liv mocks them and says families help each other win. Try it sometime, losers. Bye~! Bye~! Judgment Day leaves, but will #BayLyra humble them soon enough? And what of Brie & Paige answering the challenge to show up on “Judgment Day’s show?”

 

The Ruler’s Open Challenge: Oba Femi VS ???

With champions either too busy, too lazy, or perhaps too afraid to accept a challenge, The Ruler is making HIMSELF into the challenge! Who will answer the call, and who will be thrown from the mountaintop in Omaha?

NEVER Openweight Championship: Ren Narita VS Boltin Oleg!

The House of Torture stole this title from Aaron Wolf, but the big man from Kazakhstan is looking to free it again! Will the Souled Out Son of Strong Style be put behind BARS? Or will he find another way to stack the deck?

But of course, the House has to attack from behind! The fans boo as Ren CLUBS Oleg and Dick Togo uses the SPOILER CHOKER! But then Oleg BOOTS Ren away, hauls Dick up, but Ren kicks low! Ren CLAWS Oleg’s eyes, whips, but Oleg reverses to send Ren hard into to the railing! The fans cheer as Oleg puts Ren in the ring, and the ref rings the bell! This is on record now as Oleg RUNS Ren over! Oleg whips Ren to ropes, Ren reverses, but Oleg CLOBBERS Ren! The fans cheer as Ren tumbles out! Dick checks on Ren, as does the ref. Oleg storms out the side, then storms over, but Dick attacks again! Oleg isn’t even bothered!

Dick cowers and calls for the ref. The ref reprimands Dick for even getting close to Oleg. But this distraction lets Ren JAM Oleg with a chair! And SMACK him down! The fans boo more while Oleg writhes, but Ren stalks him around the way. Ren stands Oleg up, then whips Oleg hard into railing! Oleg writhes again, clutching his arm, but Ren stands him up to wrench and wristlock. Ren then brings Oleg out into the crowd, CLUBS away on the arm, then lines up a shot.

Ren stalks Oleg, stomps him around, then eggs him on. Oleg rises up but Ren kicks him. Oleg ROCKS Ren with the good arm! And ROCKS him again, and again, and again! Ren wrenches the bad arm to another ELBOW BREAKER! Ren wraps the bad arm around ropes, stops as the ref counts, but Dick HOTSHOTS the arm in the distraction! Ren hits as FLYING ARMBAR TAKEDOWN! The fans rally for Oleg as he fights around.

Ren kicks Oleg, grabs a chair, and he puts the chair around the arm! Dick distracts the ref while Ren- NO, Oleg blocks the Pillmanizing! Oleg ROCKS Ren, then CHAIR LARIATS! The fans fire up as the “Chairiat” takes Ren down! Oleg kicks the chair away, then drags Ren up. The fans cheer as Oleg puts Ren in the ring, then storms over to him. Oleg drags Ren up, gut wrenches again, for more Shake, Shake, Shake, and the DOCTOR- NO! Ren fights the bomb! Ren is free but he flounders to a corner. Oleg runs up to SPLASH! Then Oleg torture racks, but Ren CLAWS Oleg’s eyes! Ren whips Oleg into the ref!

Ren CLAWS Oleg’s face, then Yoshinobu Kanemaru appears! The fans boo as the Heel Master kicks Oleg down! Kanemaru uncorks his whiskey bottle to take a big swig! Kanemaru aims, but Oleg smothers the mist! Oleg fireman’s carries Kanemaru, but Dick runs in! Dick kicks Oleg but he doesn’t budge! Oleg then squeezes Kanemaru and the WHISKEY MIST hits Dick!! But Ren is up, only for Oleg to THROW Kanemaru onto him! The fans fire up for Oleg, and he calls to the ref before grabbing Ren’s legs. Oleg YANKS Ren right up, into the POWERBOMB!! High stack, TWO!! Ren survives the #BoltinBomb but the fans rally for Oleg!

Oleg grits his teeth, shakes out his bad arm, then torture racks Ren! Ren flails as Oleg bends him back! But now SHO is here! Sho distracts right as Ren TAPS! Oleg would’ve won! Oleg sees Sho, runs him off, but Sho eggs Oleg on. But then WOLF is here! The fans cheer as Aaron Wolf kicks Sho, then hauls him away!

Ren climbs the corner, takes aim from up high, for HELL’S- NO, Oleg catches Ren for a SNAP KAMIKAZE!! But the bad arm holds him back! Oleg can’t make the cover as he clutches the shoulder in pain! The fans rally even harder as Oleg rises again. Oleg roars, drags Ren up, and fireman’s carries! VERDICT!! Ren flounders but Oleg makes the cover this time, ROPEBREAK!! Ren survives by fingertips, and Oleg is frustrated with his miscalculation. Oleg roars again, he brings Ren back up, and the fans cheer the fireman’s carry. But Ren grabs ropes!

The ref reprimands but Ren goes up, up, and SUPER ARMBAR TAKEDOWN!! Oleg flails, reaches out, but Ren pulls  on the bad arm! The fans cheer as hard as they can for Oleg as he fights around! Oleg reaches out, but he’s still so far away! Oleg kicks, kicks, kicks, and has the ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer as Oleg survives by a literal foot!

DICK LOW BLOWS OLEG!! The ref misses all that, and Ren drags Oleg back down!! Oleg TAPS, Ren wins!!

Winner: Ren Narita, by submission (still NEVER Openweight Champion)

Another day, another way for Ren to cheat and steal this title away! Then the House stomps away on Oleg! Wolf returns to run them off, but he was not enough to even the odds during the match. Wolf grabs a mic to tell Ren, “What do you think you’re playing at? See if you can step on me one more time! Put that belt on the line and fight me! I promise to take back that title!” The Wolf has eyes on his prey, but will he huff ‘n’ puff and blow the House of Torture down? Or will they stack the deck too high for anyone to overcome?

 

 

IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship: Yota Tsuji VS Andrade El Idolo!

What was meant to be former friends settling a grudge is now a second chance for a “Real Latino Man.” Gabe Kidd is hurt, so Andrade is back again, but will he redeem himself from the New Beginning in USA? Or will Gene Blast still be golden?

President Hiroshi Tanahashi is here to give the formal introductions and raise the belt as we see if history repeats itself!

The bell rings and the fans rally as the two stare down. The fans cheer on “YO~TA! YO~TA!” but Andrade ignores that as the two circle. They tie up, are in a deadlock, but Yota’s height becomes his leverage. Yota puts Andrade on the ropes, but lets off cleanly. The fans applaud and Andrade shakes it off. The two reset and circle again. They tie up, are in another deadlock, but Andrade pushes Yota to the ropes. Andrade lets off, but CHOPS! Yota CHOPS, but Andrade headlocks. Yota endures the grind, but Andrade hits a takeover. Yota headscissors, Andrade kips free, but Yota hits the takeover, only for Andrade to handspring through!

Andrade returns to RANA, but Yota handsprings through! The fans cheer as the two stare down again. They circle, feel things out, and tie up with knuckle locks. They go shoulder to shoulder but Andrade wrenches to headlock. Yota powers up but can’t power out as Andrade pulls hair! Yota powers up and out this time, but Andrade RUNS him over! The fans cheer, and Andrade runs, only for Yota to hurdle over. Andrade leaps over, Yota sidesteps, but Andrade springboards to CROSSBODY! Andrade then LARIATS Yota up and out!

The fans rally as Andrade fires elbows! Andrade turns around, and he has the facelock, DDT on the post?!?

Andrade falls to the floor but that’s the lesser of the damage! He hurries back inside, he hauls Yota back up, for THE MESSAGE!!! Cover, ANDRADE WINS!!!

Winner: Andrade El Idolo, by pinfall (NEW IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion)

An instant classic and an absolute shocker at the same time as Andrade has his revenge! Yota went from two belts to none, what will his journey of redemption look like?

As for Andrade, Tanahashi presents him with the belt, and Andrade holds it high. This is not only a win for the United Empire, but a win for AEW and the Don Callis Family. Andrade grabs a mic to say, “I did it.” The fans applaud, and Andrade continues by saying, “I wanna say thank you. Yota Tsuji is good, he’s an amazing talent, but Andrade El Idolo was better tonight.” The fans applaud again, and Andrade says he knows many know he is an AEW talent, but this title is NJPW’s. So Andrade will now officially be working in both companies, both companies are in his blood. And he wants to thank everyone here in Japan for watching.

Andrade says he now has a question, and it is a simple one: Who wants to challenge him? The fans applaud, and Andrade drops the mic. Andrade holds up the belt again, but wait! Stepping out in a nice suit is Drilla Moloney. But then Shota Umino is also here, still in ring gear. Andrade likes where this is going as the two challengers talk on stage. 44 Caliber and Roughneck both go to the ring, and Andrade asks if they heard what he said. So Drilla wants this title? And Shota wants it, too? Then he has an idea.

If they want this title, HIS title, why not this just be a Triple Threat for the Global Heavyweight Championship?  Just say where, when, and what time. Then The RRRREAL~ Latino Man will be there! The fans cheer as Andrade is already raising the bar on this belt! Andrade says just call and he’ll be there. Andrade tells the fans, “Arigato!” The fans cheer, but will Andrade regret stacking the odds for his first defense? When and where will we see this shootout happen?


My Thoughts:

A great start to the Wrestling Dontaku double event, and quite the surprising result for the main event. While House of Torture shenanigans were 1000% expected for Narita VS Oleg, that was still a great match. But at the same time, as great as Oleg is, he was not going to become a TRIPLE champion between the NJPW Strong and both NEVER Openweight titles. Aaron Wolf stepping up to Ren is good stuff, but seriously, can Tanahashi use his authority to put ringside bans up? It’s actually bad kayfabe logic from management to not see that as an option.

But as I was saying, amazing main event, and Yota losing is pretty wild. I suppose even if this was Yota Tsuji VS Gabe Kidd, Gabe winning would’ve worked in story, too, positioning this title as a crossover title between NJPW and AEW. Yota’s story of making a comeback will be an intriguing one. Perhaps he uses the G1 Climax as his road back. As for Andrade being up for the Triple Threat with Shota and Drilla, that’s pretty cool, too. I don’t see Andrade losing his first defense, but a Triple Threat is a classic way to keep all parts strong no matter the result.

My Score: 8.9/10
