Swerve blocks being stabbed by the charcoal spike! Hangman powers Swerve down to the mat, but Swerve pulls him into an ARMBAR!! Hangman flails, kicks, and Swerve grabs the spike! Now Swerve tries to stab Hangman with it!! Hangman turns, has a stack, TWO!! Both men get up, and Hangman swings! Swerve gets around, to JAM the spike into Hangman’s head again and again!!
The fans tell Swerve he is sick, and Swerve sits there for a moment, looking at the charcoal spike. Swerve cries tears, but of anger! He goes after Hangman again, but Hangman LOW BLOWS first!! Hangman then brings Swerve around, lifts him up, and he CINDERBLOCK BOMBS Swerve!!! The block still does not break, but now maybe Swerve’s back just did! The fans lose their minds as Hangman pushes Swerve to a cover, TWO?!?!?!? HOW?!?! Nana himself is now pleading that maybe Swerve should’ve stayed down. Hangman paces around Swerve, he drags Swerve up, and it’s hard to know if fans say “This is Awesome!” or “This is F’d up!”
Hangman has Swerve against ropes, climbs up, and he punches away on Swerve’s bloody forehead. But then Swerve lifts Hangman! CAGE BOMB! Hangman scrapes down the steel, and Swerve reloads. HOUSE CALL against steel! Hangman flounders, Swerve reloads again. Nana says Swerve can take his time, he has this now! Swerve again asks, “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” HOUSE CALL!!! Cover, TWO!?!?!?!?! It’s not even “How,” it’s WHY!?!? Why is Hangman still in this?! Is this his pride or his anger motivating him? Swerve goes up to the top rope, but then he looks up to the cage. So Swerve climbs up the cage!
The fans are going nuts already, but Hangman is after him first! Hangman CLUBS away on Swerve, drags him down a bit, and then gets under him! SUPER DUPER POWERBOMB!!!! Both men are down, but then they both rise up!?! The fans duel as hard as they can, and it is Hangman that stands! He Alabama Lifts, to DEADEYE!! Cover, TWO!?!?!?! Again, how and why!? Is Swerve just as motivated by his rage? Hangman paces around, and he grabs a chair. Hangman says he told Swerve that he would beg, so BEG! Hangman JAMS Swerve in the head!! Hangman tells Swerve to beg for mercy, but Nana says don’t!
Hangman JAMS Swerve again! Swerve laughs!? Hangman is furious, but the fans fire up! Swerve eggs Hangman on! Then he flops over…! Hangman drops his chair, sits Swerve up, and says time to embarrass him! Hangman takes Swerve’s grill away! Then he goes to the black bag, to bring out hypodermic needles!? What is Hangman doing?!? He stabs it through Swerve’s cheek!!!! The fans tell Hangman he is sickest of all, but Hangman has the chair. Swerve is like a zombie, HEADSHOT CHAIRSHOT!!!! The ref checks Swerve, he is OUT!! Hangman wins!
Winner: Hangman Page, by knockout
This went to dark places most people could never imagine, and it is Hangman who stands tall in the end. Hangman soaks up the cheers and jeers from Chicago, but is he finally done with Swerve? Will Swerve ever even be able to wrestle again? Wait, Hangman almost starts stepping back to the ring! But then whatever miniscule shred of mercy is left in him says no, leave it here. Hangman roars, having finally gotten past his past. But then the question is, what is next for The Cowboy?
My Thoughts:
This was an awesome All Out, though it’ll surely have a lot of debate over that Lights Out main event. Yes, they needed to escalate from their already brutal Texas Deathmatch, but I don’t think commentary even needed to sell their horror and disappointment at how violent this cage match got. For me, the staple gun was par for the course, and I was wondering if they’d bring the cinderblock back. That thing didn’t wanna sell for anyone, though, and there’s already word that it might’ve been a legit cinderblock, not a gimmicked one. If that is true, that is a deciding factor for me personally. Y’all can’t be doing stuff you know isn’t stunt safe. Before, it’s a question of whether anyone understood the physics of falling from something, but this is going into it knowing you’re gonna mess yourself up.
Moving away from that, Zero Hour was fun, but also a lot of filler. Acclaimed being thrown together with Iron Savages just to get a win, then a couple “Just for fun” trios matches. Team Texas of course beats The Premier Athletes, and that actually feels like a waste of the moment they gave us last night with Premier Athletes watching. Bang Bang Gang also just face a team to get a win back, and then I’m actually a little surprised The Kingdom won the big money. The amount has yet to be given, so maybe Tony Khan trolls The Kingdom by revealing it’s a bunk amount. But it mostly gives Roddy momentum going into his FTW Championship with Hook.
But something that was good story, that was “must see,” was Mariah May being mean to now Face Skye Blue. Skye is still recovering from her legit ankle injury, but Aminata is going to fight in her honor now. Mariah VS Aminata will be a very good story, very good match, but I feel like it’ll be another clear win for Mariah so she can strengthen her reign. Still hoping we get some interaction with Mina Shirakawa, that story needs to happen given Mina’s involvement in the Storm VS Mariah story.
MJF VS Garcia was a surprising choice for opener, but it turned out to be an awesome choice. They definitely leaned into each guy wanting to use a piledriver or related moves, to where it was Garcia’s obsession and is perhaps why he lost. MJF getting a quick pin win was a clever finish since it wasn’t violent or definitive, and I could just tell looking at Garcia after the bell rang that he’d go after MJF. In retrospect, that was setting the tone for other parts of the night. We got a great Chicago Street Fight from Willow VS Kris, and for them bringing out what they did, that still ends up second to the Lights Out Cage Match. Kris was of course winning since this wasn’t the title match anymore, but I do want Kris to come back for more, wanting that title match, and they still do it up big for the Dynamite Anniversary show.
Great International Championship match with Ospreay VS Pac, a real show stealer right here, and certainly a revisit to a part of Ospreay’s NJPW career that I used to call “RIP Ospreay’s Neck.” That had more Poison-Ranas than any match I can think of, and Ospreay still wins out. Also, great little bit with Ricochet where they taunt each other and of course plug that coming title match. Ricochet definitely needs matches for Dynamite and maybe even Collision to get him going again, and we can get Ospreay VS Ricochet in time for either the Dynamite Anniversary or WrestleDream. I feel like the PPV is better, it gives just a touch more time for them to build this. In fact, Ricochet winning a match on the anniversary show to earn his shot at WrestleDream would be good stuff.
Great Fatal 4 Way Continental Championship match, so much fun with all the combos, but it is as I said, Okada wins but not with Konosuke taking the loss, we can get Okada VS Konosuke in the next stretch. And that will be a lot of fun, too, as they can certainly play up the competitive history of NJPW and DDT-Pro. Okada was perhaps the biggest name in the biggest Japanese promotion, Konosuke was one of the biggest names in a company that overall is a lot goofier, but now Konosuke is showing the world what he can really do. Great match from Mone and Shida, but I figured Mone was retaining because of some other cheat. It wasn’t really Mone cheating, but she did get Shida to think about the kendo stick, and that conflict left her open.
And great stuff with The Elite and Blackpool Combat Club. Great tag title match from Bucks VS Claudio & Yuta, and just as I figured, Bucks retained. They needed their match to be here and now so all parts could rest before Bryan VS Jack. Bryan VS Jack was awesome stuff, Jack’s best singles match to date, and commentary was saying it for themselves, Jack became a more complete wrestler with his time away from AEW and in NJPW, like a reverse excursion or something. But as I was saying all week, Bryan was retaining because he’s not done yet, and Jack isn’t ready for a dual championship role.
However, what a really shocking series of events after. I should’ve known Christian Cage would attempt a cash-in, but a great move where BCC stands in his way. But then between Bryan’s big smile and all the stuff Moxley & Marina have been doing, there was a turn coming. I just didn’t think Claudio AND Pac would be onboard for it, while leaving Yuta out in the cold. I mean, I suppose Bryan needs one ally left if this remixed BCC is coming after him and the title, but wow. It’s a bit of a mess, though, since Pac, Claudio & Yuta are still Trios Champions together. And also, another controversial move using a plastic bag to “suffocate” Bryan, but wrestling historians probably recognized the Terry Funk VS Ric Flair reference. Still messed up, but this certainly implies Moxley VS Bryan going towards WrestleDream so that Bryan has an epic homecoming to Washington state.
My Score: 9.1/10

Megan and Hyan are both down while the fans rally up! Megan and Hyan crawl, hot tags to Lena and Maya!
The fans fire up as Maya ducks under, UP KICKS, then SOBATS and BOOTS! Lena just scowls, but Maya ducks ‘n’ dodges to tilt-o-whirl RANA Lena to a corner! Maya UPPERCUTS, whips, but Lena reverses! Maya goes up, up, and MISSILE DROPKICKS! Maya handsprings up and the fans cheer her on! Maya runs in and BACK BODY BLOCKS! Megan runs up but is sent into Lena! Maya BACK BODY BLOCKS again, then tags Hyan! Hyan tunes up, roars and runs around the world for a KNEE! Maya goes up, BLOCKBUSTER LEG SWEEP COMBO! Cover, TWO! Lena survives but Hyan coordinates with Maya.
Hyan tags Maya, they get Lena up again, and Maya runs, only for Lena to ELBOW Hyan, BOOT Maya, and HOOK KICK Hyan! Tag to Megan and she brings Maya up. Maya JAWBREAKERS, then she and Hyan double whip! Megan reverses, kicks Maya, and fireman’s carries Hyan! Maya jumps on but Megan just adds her to it! FALL AWAY SLAM SAMOAN DROP COMBO! The fire up again, and Megan LEAPING LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Tag to Lena and Divine Dominion get Maya up. But Hyan with the save! Lena ROCKS Hyan, Megan TOSSES Hyan aside, then they get Maya again! DIVINE- DOUBLE DDT COUNTER!!
The fans fire up while all four women are down! Maya hurries to tag Hyan back in, and they run up on the champs to DOUBLE DROPKICK! The Divine Dominion tumble outside, and Maya holds the ropes open for Hyan! Hyan DIVES through the five hole to take out Divine Dominion! Then she sets them back up so Maya can ASAI MOONSAULT! Down they go again! The fans are thunderous while Hyan & Maya put Lena in. But Lena wrenches and BOOTS Hyan! Hyan ROCKS Lena! Then she counter punches again and again and again! Hyan CHOPS, runs, but into the BOOT! Lena reels Hyan into the fireman’s carry, but Hyan fights free!

Winners: The Divine Dominion, by pinfall (still AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions)
Hyan & Maya put up quite the fight, but they could not overcome these demigods! Will Megan & Lena always stand atop the mountain like true Olympians? Or will a team find the secret to dethroning the Divine Dominion?
The truest, most basic battle has always been between right and wrong.
Two sides of a coin decide an entire future. But which side dictates righteousness? Is it a soldier of fortune? Or a soldier of ambition? A toxic entity? Or justified aggressor? Is it the revenge seekers? Or the perpetrators of the original sin? A devil or a god? No matter the side you stand, the only way to prove right or wrong is through the other side. Tonight, AEW builds its Dynasty!
Kazuchika Okada & Konosuke Takeshita VS The Young Bucks!
Don Callis joins commentary so he can watch his Michael Jordan & Scottie Pippen put down Matt & Nick Jackson, all in the name of avenging Kyle Fletcher! But will the incentive of Okada VS Takeshita be enough to hold the team together? Or will Vancouver be throwing a Superkick Party?
The teams sort out and the fans are already losing their minds over this dream match. Konosuke and Nick start and circle as the fans rally. They tie up, Nick headlocks, but Konosuke powers out. They RAM shoulders, then Konosuke dares Nick to go again. Nick runs, but Konosuke RUNS him over! Konosuke runs, Nick stays low, but Konosuke ducks ‘n’ dodges to TAKESHITA LINE! The fans fire up, and Okada asks for the tag. Konosuke tags Okada in, and they work together to double whip and DOUBLE SHOULDER TACKLE! Okada adds an ELBOW DROP, then Konosuke adds an ELBOW DROP!
The fans cheer Okada and Konosuke as they shake hands! Okada scoops Nick, SLAMS him down, then slingshot SENTONS from the apron! Okada mocks The Bucks’ signature pose, then stalks Nick to the corner. Okada tags Konosuke, they double whip but Nick blocks a shot to CHOP! Nick goes up and over Okada to then “LUCHA LIBRE~!” FLYING ARM-DRAG RANA COMBO! The fans fire up while Nick tags Matt. Matt whips, Okada reverses, but Matt goes up and over. Nick GAMANGIRIS before helping Matt with the SLICED BREAD! Then SHINING WIZARD! Konosuke storms in, but into double kicks!
The Bucks double whip, but Konosuke dodges! Konosuke waistlocks Matt, Matt switches to shove Konosuke and Nick waistlocks. Matt runs up, but Konosuke BOOTS him! Konosuke switches, Nick switches, Matt runs up, SUNSET GERMAN SUPLEX! Then The Bucks DOUBLE LARIAT Konosuke up and out! The fans fire up while Okada regroups with Takeshita. Nick and Matt work together, MONKEY FLIP ASAI MOONSAULT! The fans are thunderous again but Callis gets pissed! Nick drags Konosuke up and puts him in the ring. Matt scoops, Nick aims from the apron, but Okada hurries in! Nick fakes the springboard to make Okada whiff on his dropkick!
Matt CLUBS Konosuke, Nick springboards, MISSILE DROPKICK SENTON COMBO! The fans fire up and rally behind The Bucks, Nick whips Matt so he can WRECK Konosuke with a dropkick! Nick runs, but Okada FLAPJACKS him onto Matt! Matt falls and Okada grins while Nick flounders away. Okada goes out and asks, “How’s your brother’s d*ck?” Konosuke covers Matt, TWO! Okada RAMS Nick into railing while Konosuke clamps onto Matt with a chinlock. The fans tell Callis off while Konosuke clamps on with a tighter hold.

Matt hurries into the ring, crawls as fast as he can, but Okada YANKS Nick down! Then he HOTSHOTS Matt! Okada kicks Nick to DDT him on the floor! Okada snatches the headband and vest to put it on! Callis gets a good laugh but the fans do love Okada cosplaying as a Young Buck. Okada mockingly holds out a hand but Matt sees it’s NOT Nick.

“Kamille, if you wanted a title shot, if you wanted a fight, all you had to do was ask. Because as so many other girls have already learned, if you wanna make a comeback at my expense, it’s not as easy as just blindsiding me.

Or will there be a new Face of TBS?

Winners: The Dogs, by pinfall (NEW AEW World Tag Team Champions)
Bullet Club may be gone, but these Dogs are still here, and they now reign in AEW! But then Roderick Strong is on the tron to shout, “DOGS!! Congratulations on your victory. But I know you guys weren’t done with us, especially after what you did to us Wednesday. Now, I know there’s three of you and there is only two of us. But there just might be a third.” Orange Cassidy finishes a phone call and says yeah, there might. Okay, then what’d he say? Oh, Cassidy forgot to ask. He can just call back. Roddy says do it now! Cassidy redials and Roddy says they’ll see The Dogs on Sunday! See you there! The Dogs don’t sweat it, but who will be the third man, brother?
AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.
The United Empire regrouped backstage, victorious from the Chaos in Canada, but Will Ospreay says, “Lemme get this straight, Jon Boy. Last week, you said there was six of you and only one of me. That’s funny, because I got a lot of friends over in Japan. Not even friends, brothers, guys that looked after my back since day one. Francesco Akira, one of the greatest Junior Heavyweight Tag wrestlers of all time. Henare, one of the toughest mother effers I’ve ever met in my entire life. This guy knocked out Gabe Kidd with one hand, bang, across his head, and a gash in his head that was about four centimeters.
“And this is my little brother, Callum Newman. You may recognize that (title on his shoulder). He is the youngest-ever IWGP Heavyweight Champion. Together, we’re the United Empire.” Callum says after Ryogoku, after winning the most prestigious title in all of pro-wrestling, Big Brother Billy took ’em all out to the bar, said he had a problem at work. Well, there’s one thing about the Empire: The ARE united. They’ve had their differences, they’ve had things going on, but it doesn’t matter where or when, The Empire stands together. They are a brotherhood! Damn right. And Jon, Sunday, Ospreay gets you all to himself.
No Death Riders, no United Empire, just them and the Continental Championship. And Moxley said he wont’ stand in the way of action and consequences. Good. Neither will Ospreay. The Aerial Assassin’s edge is sharpened, but will he be able to cut down The Maniac?
Kris Statlander & Hikaru Shida VS Ava Lawless & Gigi Rey!
Both former AEW Women’s World Champions have been dealing with some frustrations over not winning titles. But these two go away back to the early days of AEW, so surely they can make a formidable tag team. Will this be the beginning of the Galaxy’s Greatest Duo? Or are they resting on their laurels even now?
The teams sort out and Shida starts against Ava. The fans cheer Ava on as a local favorite, but Shida fires off forearms! Shida ROCKS Ava and puts her in the corner. Shida whips corner to corner, then runs in, and she JUMP KNEES Ava! Shida climbs up and rains down fists! The fans count along and Shida goes to TEN! Shida is fired up, the fans cheer, and Shida brings Ava around to suplex for the FALCON ARROW! Shida then winds up and runs, but Kris tags in! Shida is upset by that but Ava hot tags Gigi! Gigi runs up and RAMS Kris! Gigi fires forearms, but Kris snap suplexes! Then a roll through for the FISHERMAN BUSTER!
Kris runs to BOOT Ava down, then she brings Gigi up. Gigi fires body shots, but Kris whips Gigi away. Gigi ducks ‘n’ dodges, tilt-o-whirls and- NO, Kris blocks for STATURDAY NIGHT FEVER! Cover, Kris & Shida win!
Winners: Kris Statlander & Hikaru Shida, by pinfall
Shida is stunned, because for one, she was about to finish Ava on her own a moment ago. But a win is a win, so maybe there’s something to #Krishida after all. Unless…?
Maya World & Hyan speak.
“In the world of professional wrestling, we consider ourselves opportunists.” This is Hyan, the Renaissance Woman, so you know she can do it all. And this is #ThatGirl, Maya World! When the lights shine bright, all eyes are on her! They’re also a couple Texas girls, so you know they love a good fight! The AEW Women’s Tag Division is stacked, and Divine Dominion are at the top. They may be bigger and stronger, but that never stops Maya & Hyan. At Dynasty, in the Zero Hour, Maya & Hyan are coming for the titles! Megan, Lena, you can clock that!
AEW shares more footage from after Dynamite.
The Death Riders regrouped after that loss, but Moxley laughed it off and said that was so much fun. Chaos, tables breaking, bodies flying everywhere. They live for this! The Empire stepped into the Death Riders’ world and survived, congrats, good for them. But do they wanna do it again? Or do they want to never have to do that again? This is where Death Riders live! This is what they do, this is what they are! They thrive in the chaos, the live in the eye of the storm! No organization, not in AEW or NJPW or CMLL, nowhere else in this world, can they run with this group. No one can keep up with this group, not for long.
Others get tired, hurt, distracted, fall off, break. Will Ospreay is hellbent on breaking Moxley’s neck. So headstrong, so determined, so talented. Ospreay has done everything right in his career. Maybe. With this play that he’s making, 20 minutes alone with Moxley to get his hands on Moxley, that is a very long time to not make a mistake. Not with a neck like that! Ospreay can’t afford it. So screw Ospreay, screw the United Empire, screw NJPW, it’s them VS The World! Moxley leaves, Daniel Garcia reiterates, “Against the world.” Will nothing stop MOxley from keeping that Contiental Championship?
Casino Gauntlet Stakes: Rush VS Anthony Bowens!
Tommaso Ciampa won the #1 spot in the TNT Championship Casino Gauntlet, but now it is time to determine who joins him as #2! Will El Toro Blanco stampede his way into Vancouver? Or will the Pride of Professional Wrestling prove he can be a killer?
The bell rings and the two circle. The fans rally for Rush as the two tie up, then break. They tie up again, Bowens headlocks, but Rush fires body shots. Rush puts Bowens on ropes, headlocks in return, but Bowens powers up and out. Things speed up, Bowens drops down then hurdles over, but Rush leaps over Bowens! Rush comes back but Bowens RUNS him over! Rush returns to RUN Bowens over! The fans fire up as the two start shoving. Then they start throwing forearms! Rush fires up and eggs Bowens on. The forearms keep going, then Rush CHOPS! Bowens scowls to CHOP again! Rush CHOPS!
The CHOPS go back and forth, then Bowens CHOPS, CHOPS, CHOPS! Bowens runs, but rush dodges to CHOP! And CHOP! Rush eggs Bowens on again, then dodges to DECK him! Bowens goes to a corner while the fans fire up. Rush sits Bowens down to stomp away on him! Rush then goes corner to corner and back again, to fake the dropkick, and he BOOTS Bowens instead! The fans are torn as Rush rolls back to tranquilo. Rush then hears the fans fire up. Bowens runs up but Rush SNAP POWERSLAMS him! Rush kicks and runs, but into a BOOT from Bowens! Bowens CLUBS and ELBOWS Rush again and again!
Bowens CLUBS Rush down, Rush bails out, and Bowens goes out after Rush. The fans cheer Bowens as he whips Rush hard into railing! And then whips him hard into more railing! Bowens scissor fingers some fans, then he SMACKS Rush off the steel steps again and again! Rush falls over, Bowens roars, and the fans cheer him on! Bowens drags Rush up, reels him in, but Rush fights the suplex! Bowens fires body shots, but Rush still fights! Bowens whisp Rush into more railing! Rush flops down, Bowens refreshes the ring count, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Bowens storms over to Rush, drags him up, and sits him in the corner. Bowens CHOPS, CHOPS, and puts Rush in the ring. Bowens fires up with the fans, then he goes to the ring. Bowens stomps Rush, but Rush SPITS at him! Bowens snarls and SUPERKICKS Rush down! Cover, ONE! Rush toughs it out but Bowens clamps on with a chinlock, then a COBRA CLUTCH! Rush endures, even as Bowens grinds him down! Rush fights up, fights around, and fires body shots. Rush DROPKICKS Bowens into the corner! Rush snarls but he has control as Collision goes to break.
Collision returns as Bowens winds up for a mule kick, a front kick, then a FAMOUSER! Cover, TWO! Rush toughs it out but Bowens keeps his cool. Bowens drags Rush up, whips him to a corner, but Rush reverses. Rush SPLASHES, then he snapmares to basement DROPKICK! The fans fire up with Rush, and he sees Bowens go to the corner. Rush kicks Bowens, eggs him on, but Bowens bumps Rush off buckles! Bowens ROCKS and CHPOS, but then Rush puts Bowens in the corner to CHOP and CHOP! Bowens ROCKS and CHOPS and repeat! Rush guzels but Bowens breaks free to ROCK Rush! Rush hits back and the fans cheer the forearms flying!
Rush wrenches Bowens into the ANGLE SLAM! Cover, TWO! Bowens survives and Rush is furious! The fans rally as Rush rises up, and he brings Bowens around to whip to the corner. Bowens reverses, runs up, and he puts Rush in the ropes. ENZIGIRI! Then the DRAPING SIDEWINDER! Cover, TWO! Rush survives and the fans fire up again! Bowens snarls, he pounds the mat, and the fans rally. Bowens goes to a corner, takes aim at Rush, and he runs up, but into a CORNER BELLY2BELLY! Not the strongest throw, but Rush looks to add on!

Cover, Rush wins!

Psycho Killer and El Toro Blanco, that already makes for a dream match for the TNT Championship! But who else will join them in that Casino Gauntlet? Who will have the hot hand and win the jackpot?
Backstage interview with The Brawling Birds.
Lexy Nair is with Alex Windsor & Jamie Hayter and says they both have a big Sunday at Dynasty in separate singles matches as Windsor takes on Marina Shafir and Jamie challenges Thekla for the AEW Women’s World Championship. Tonight, they take them both on together in a tag match. Alex tells Marina that while she serves as Moxley’s little lap dog, she’ll send a message to Moxley: “Jon, Will is gonna cut the head off the snake, but first, I’m gonna chop off the ass! But don’t worry when Will breaks your neck, because I promise I will put Marina right next to you.”
Jamie tells Thekla that she must admit, Thekla’s doing pretty well for herself. Jamie honestly didn’t think Thekla would get this far! The last time they stood across the ring from each other, Jamie didn’t see some Toxic Spider or even some crazy girl, she saw a tosser who was too afraid to get hit! Now, she’ll tell you for free, Jamie will hit Thekla harder than she’s ever been hit before. So tell her, what does that title mean to you? Because to Jamie, it is her life! Alex tells Thekla and Marina to stop drinking, because they’re about to beat the piss outta you! The Birds don’t give a flying F, but will they be able to solve this toxic problem even before Dynasty?
The Hurt Syndicate VS Andy Anderson & Mo Jabari!
Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin are both back at 100%, and they’re ready to take 100% of what AEW has to offer. Will the All Mighty & Standard of Excellence continue to hurt people?

Backstage interview with Harley Cameron and Min a Shirakawa.
Lexy Nair sits with them in the lounge area, and she brings up that Harley had asked Kris to team up, only to be turned down. But now she and Mina are both here, how are they both feeling? Harley says sometimes, all you have left is hope. Mina agrees. Harley says she and Mina are rather similar, in more ways than one. But the main thing is, Kris rejected Harley’s idea of tagging and training together, Mina is without Toni Storm, and now they’re both here, alone together. Yep. There is only one thing left to do. Lexy asks what that is, and Mina grabs a couple of glasses, but Harley says just hand her the bottle. Bottoms up, tops down.
Lexy watches as Mina sips her bubbly, and Harley chugs the bottle! Well, drinking away the pain only lasts so long. Will Mina and Harley help pick each other up so they can both move forward?
The Young Bucks VS Hechicero & CLØN w/ Rocky Romero!
Matt & Nick Jackson were going to face #Protokada at Dynasty before Kyle Fletcher’s leg injury took him out, but now they’re set to face Kazuchika Okada & Konosuke Takeshita!

PROGRAMMING NOTE for Spring Break Thru!
AEW is doing it up big for the Dynasty aftermath as Dynamite and Collision will be on back-to-back nights! AEW will make Wednesday and Thursday #AllElite in Seattle, Washington, make sure your DVR is set so you don’t miss a minute of the action!
AEW International Championship: Kazuchika Okada w/ The Don Callis Family VS Myron Reed!
On Wednesday, the deal was struck that if The Rainmaker & Alpha work together at Dynasty against The Young Bucks, Double or Nothing would see Rainmaker VS Alpha for this title. But does that mean Okada is already overlooking the third Rascal? Or will Okada use Myron to send a message to everyone, including Takeshita?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who lights it up!
Callis joins commentary and says that this match is just to tie up loose ends, and that “this green headed little punk is gonna get his ass handed to him by the great Rainmaker, Okada.” The bell rings and the fans rally for Okada as he circles with Reed. They tie up, are in a deadlock, but Okada’s height gives him the leverage. They go to the ropes, Okada lets off slowly, but then he ROCKS Reed with forearms! Okada CLUBS Reed to a corner, stomps away on him, then stops as the ref counts. Okada runs corner to corner, but Reed dodges to counter punch! And counter punch! Okada THROWS Reed to the corner, then stomps away!
Okada CLUBS Reed, then runs the ropes to LARIAT Reed up and out! Reed lands safe on the apron, though, and he dodges Okada to GUILLOTINE LEG DROP! Reed goes up, up, but Okada avoids the leap! Okada blocks the superkick, but not the DRAGON WHIP! Reed keeps moving, and he springboard DROPKICKS! Cover, ONE! Okada bails out but Reed builds speed, only for Okada to slide in! Reed slides under the boot to SUPERKICK again! Reed runs up, but Okada puts him on the apron. Reed jumps right back in, but Okada puts him right up top! DROPKICK and Reed tumbles to the floor! The fans rally and Okada grins while Collision goes picture in picture.
Okada takes his time going outside to fetch Reed. Okada RAMS Reed into railing, then lets Reed slump down while he “apologizes” to the front row. Okada refreshes the ring count, kicks Reed low, then DDTS him on the floor! Okada brings Reed up again, puts him in the ring, then stalks him to ropes. Okada stands Reed up, bumps him off buckles, then bumps him off more buckles. Okada goes to a third corner for a third buckle bump, then flips the fans off for wanting the full set! Okada grins as he trolls the fans, and he drags Reed up. Okada ELBOWS Reed in the corner, and Collision goes to break.
Collision returns as Okada eggs Reed on, daring him to take a shot. Reed fires a forearm, but then Okada kicks low and DDTS hard! Cocky cover, ONE! Reed is tougher than that but Okada drags him up for a scoop. Okada SLAMS Reed, goes to the corner, and he climbs up top. Standard formula says MACHO ELBOW, but onto knees! Reed gets Okada in the ghost pin, TWO! Okada kicks low, then suplexes, but into STUN-DOG MILLIONAIRE! The fans rally up while both men are down! Reed and Okada rise, Reed CLOBBERS Okada again and again! Reed whips, Okada reverses, then Okada ducks the boot!
Okada blocks the superkick, avoids the sweep, but Reed avoids the boot! Reed goes Matrix to avoid the lariat, and he PELES! Okada staggers away and the fans fire up! Reed runs corner to corner, but he blocks boots first! Reed puts Okada in the ropes, ENZIGIRIS, then goes out to slingshot and GUILLOTINE LEG DROP! Cover, TWO! Okada survives but Reed is not dismayed. Callis tells Okada to execute Reed in Japanese, but Reed FLIES! Down goes Okada and the fans fire up with Reed! Callis is upset but Reed puts Okada in the ring. Reed counter punches Okada, then slingshots, but Okada catches him! REVERSE NECKBREAKER!
The fans rally as Okada brings Reed back up. Okada scoops and SLAMS Reed, and he tries the standard formula again. Okada aims for the MACHO ELBOW! Direct hit this time, and then Okada winds up the Rainmaker MIDDLE FINGER! Okada brings Reed up, around, but Reed fires elbows! Reed runs, but into the DROPKICK! Okada drags Reed up, gut wrenches, but Reed fights free! Reed fireman’s carries to swing Okada onto the ropes for the DRAPING FLATLINER! The fans fire up again as Reed builds speed, and he FLING CUTTERS to the floor!! The fans go nuts for that wild risk Reed just took, but Reed gets Okada back in the ring.
Reed aims, springboards, and 450 SPLASHES, but onto knees! Cover, TWO! Reed survives but Okada hauls him up! Ripcord and RAIN- NO,M Reed wheelbarrows to victory roll, TWO! Okada is up, he ducks a lariat to DISCUS- NO, Reed goes Matrix again! But Okada stops the stunner, pops Reed up, TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER! Okada ripcords to RAINMAKER!! Cover, Okada wins!
Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (still AEW International Champion)
The Rainmaker got more than he expected out of Myron Reed, but he is still on top as a champion! And with that, will Okada and Takeshita take down The Young Bucks for their mutual best friend, Kyle Fletcher?
AEW shares more footage from after Dynamite.
Willow Nightingale returned backstage, victorious as AEW TBS Champion, and she says, “Oh my gawd! Okay, Queen Aminata, tonight, Dynamite, she brought it! On Collision this past week, Shida, she brought it! These girls are coming back, they’re making me work, but it’s all good, because I am still the Face of TBS! Your TBS Champion, Willow Nightingale! And I’m excited, I’m happy, arms wide open, welcoming these girls back. Tony Schiavone was out there calling me the Comeback Killer.
“So if you’re home right now, if you’re recovering from an injury, if you’re needing to rediscover yourself a little bit, take some time away… I’m here waiting. TBS Championship will on be the line, anywhere, any place. Come and try and take it.” The Babe with the Power also has the confidence, but will this unique open challenge come back to bite her?
Divine Dominion speaks.
Lena Kross says, “Holding these titles means we are the best. That we set the standard for the Women’s Tag Team Division. And somehow, Hyan & Maya have caught our attention as they desperately try to rise from the bottom. Admirable. But what makes you think you belong in the same realm as us?” Megan Bayne says, “Now, now. We are gracious champions. So here’s your gift. This Sunday, Dynasty: Zero Hour, we grant you the opportunity to step into our domain, and fight not just for the AEW Women’s Tag Team Championships, but for your honor. But understand this: You are beneath us. So now the only question is, can you survive long enough to keep us entertained?”
The Megasus & Aussie Amazon have spoken, will they dominate and destroy Hyan & Maya like all the rest? Or will The Renaissance Woman & #ThatGirl move heaven and earth to reach the mountaintop?
Thekla & Marina Shafir VS The Brawling Birds!
The Toxic Spider and The Problem each have their battles with Jamie Hayter & Alex Windsor at Dynasty, and we all know no one out of these four gives any F’s about how hard they have to fight to win. Will the AEW Women’s World Champion and the Death Riders’ femme fatale have all the momentum on their side? Or will this truly be an example of two birds, one stone?
The teams sort out, but then Thekla & Marina just attack The Birds! The ref reprimands but the fans cheer as they are indeed brawling! Jamie CLUBS away on Thekla, Windsor and Marina scrap, but then Thekla & Marina kick low. They TOSS The Birds out, then storm out after them. Thekla CLUBS Jamie, Marina sends Windsor into barriers, and then Marina CHOPS! Thekla SMACKS Jamie off the apron, Marina SAYANAGIS Windsor, but then Jamie THROWS Thekla into the railing! This isn’t even a match yet because there was no bell! Marina whips Windsor hard into railing, but then Jamie storms over!
Jamie CLUBS Marina, stomps her into the corner, and now Windsor brawls with Thekla! Windsor RAMS Thekla, BOOTS Marina, but Thekla KICKS Jamie! Marina KNEES Windsor, Thekla sends Jamie into railing, and Thekla soaks up the cheers and jeers. Thekla says the barrier is sturdy, and Marina tells the ref to take it easy. Thekla CHOKES Jamie with the padding, and Marina full nelsons Windsor to make her watch. Thekla SMACKS Jamie off the desk! Thekla asks commentary how they’re doing tonight, and she pretends to tap a wristwatch, saying it is only a matter of time. Marina CLUBS Windsor, then UPPERCUTS her down!
The ref is getting fed up with this, but Marina finally goes to the ring. But Windsor reels her back out for a WHEELBARROW SLAM off the apron! Jamie suplexes Thekla hard on the floor! Windsor puts Marina in, the bell finally rings, and this is finally on record! Jamie sends Thekla into railing, then hurries back to her corner. Windsor HAMMERs away on Marina, CHOPS her, then Jamie joins in with CHOPS! The fans cheer as The Birds CHOP, CHOP, and then they DOUBLE DOUBLE CHOP Thekla! Marina storms up to DOUBLE CHOP the Birds! Then she KICKS Jamie down, BOOTS Windsor aside, and bumps Jamie off buckles.
Thekla BOOTS Windsor, Marina THROWS Jamie, and Marina waistlocks Windsor for a GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans rally while Marina sucker punches Jamie, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Marina stalks Windsor, KICKS her around, taunts her, then kicks her again. Marina drags Windsor up, whips her to the corner, then fires body shots. Tag to Thekla and she CLAWS Windsor’s face! The ref counts, Thekla stops, but then Thekla drags Windsor up. Windsor fires body shots, ROCKS Thekla, then brings her around. Thekla fires body shots, brings Windsor around again, and cravats for a snapmare. Thekla CLUBS Windsor, covers, TWO! Windsor toughs it out but Thekla drags her up.

Marina kneels on Windsor for a cocky cover, TWO! Marina KICKS Windsor int he back, watches her writhe, then brings her up. Marina whips and KICKS Windsor down! Collision returns to single picture while Marina soaks up the heat. Marina stands Windsor up, whips again, but Windsor grabs the ropes!
Marina KICKS Windsor again, then winds up, only for Windsor to dodge! Marina gets stuck in the ropes and Windsor KICKS Marina’s legs! Windsor turns Marina around to CHPO, CHOP, and CHOP! Windsor runs but Thekla kicks low! Thekla whips, Windsor dodges, and Windsor SHOTGUNS Marina! Windsor then bobs ‘n’ weaves with Thekla to ROCK her! And then DRAPING DDT on Marina! The fans fire up as Windsor crawls, hot tag to Hayter! Jamie BLASTS Thekla, then she GERMAN SUPLEXES Marina! And GERMAN SUPLEX! And a third GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up as Jamie CLUBS away on Marina!
Jamie runs but Marina dodges the boot! Marina shoves Jamie to the corner, then runs up, but into an ELBOW! Jamie BOOTS Marina, goes up, and MISSILE DROPKICKS!

HEADBUTT from Windsor to Marina, and then TWO BIRDS ONE STONE!! Cover, Birds win!!
Winners: The Brawling Birds, by pinfall
It wasn’t easy, but The Birds managed to solve The Problem! Wait, is Marina smiling? Is she just that excited to have another fight like this with Iron Will Windsor? Will Jamie make sure Thekla gets a real taste of Hayterade? Or will Thekla make sure AEW stays toxic?
My Thoughts:
A great go-home episode of Collision, and of course they had three different post-Dynamite promo segments to add some final touches on things. Good promos from United Empire and Death Riders, and Garcia having to have the last word makes me wonder. Will Garcia try and help Moxley despite Continental Rules? Will Garcia cost Moxley the title because of that? They have yet to even tease such a thing in the history of this title and the Continental Rules, this could be the time to do it. But at the same time, Moxley VS Ospreay having a real finish, even a 20 minute time limit finish, would be more favorable for the fans.
A title change here tonight is really surprising. At the same time, Mistico was a TRIPLE champion between AEW and CMLL, so something had to give. But The Dogs turning right around to face Cassidy, Roddy, and I can only assume a returning Kyle O’Reilly, are The Dogs going to be transitional champions to The Conglomeration? That’d be pretty wild, but would also compel a renewed rivalry between Dogs and Conglomeration going towards Double or Nothing and beyond. For that matter, maybe Hurt Syndicate finding a new member is something they build towards DON, as they simply did a squash match win to get them going again.
Kris & Shida of course won their match, but this seems to be a vehicle for a feud, or at least Shida’s Heel turn. Mina and Harley had a very fun promo, especially with Harley chugging that drink. I don’t know if Mina & Harley become a duo, or they get in on the story with Kris and Shida to build up the midcard, but Mina and Harley both know how to be hilarious so this will be a lot of fun. Good promos from Maya & Hyan as well as Divine Dominion, but clearly Maya & Hyan are being fed to Megan & Lena to build their reign. Though, it is wild to think Maya & Hyan are getting this moment at all from the great work they’re doing in ROH.
Rush VS Bowens was great stuff, especially for Bowens bringing out his aggression, but Rush winning out was a given. I really do mean it when I say Ciampa and Rush could just be the TNT Championship match on its own, but the Casino Gauntlet will be a lot of fun, as it always is. Not sure what’s going on with “Bowens wants to be in The Opps” since we haven’t seen Hook in a minute. And that Acclaimed reunion slow burn went ice cold, not sure why TK didn’t/hasn’t see the road ahead for it. He could even be using The Opps as part of it, where Caster is also trying to prove he has ruthless aggression. But just as they’d been teasing before, Caster and Bowens would see they’re better together, no one else needed, and boom, Acclaimed is back!
The Bucks VS Clon y Hechi was a great match, perhaps better than it needed to be, but that’s also par for the course with AEW. Okada VS Reed was also great, but sadly a forgone conclusion when they gave us that deal within The Don Callis Family. Bucks have momentum, Okada has momentum, Konosuke has momentum, the tag match could go either way, but all with the purpose of building Okada VS Takeshita. And great main event tag from Brawling Birds VS Thekla & Windsor. Marina taking the loss protects Thekla, but I feel she’ll find a way to retain against Jamie. Marina VS Windsor can go either way, since it’s non-title and is kinda more about the larger Death Riders story.
My Score: 8.9/10
