Saraya’s Rules: Saraya w/ Harley Cameron VS Jamie Hayter!

If you missed last week, the rules of a “Saraya’s Rules” match are simple: Saraya and those associated with her can do whatever they want to Jamie Hayter, but Jamie Hayter has to still play by the regular rules. Oh, and something about Hayter being a slag. But with chairs and tables already set up inside and outside the ring, it is clear what Saraya plans on doing. Will this all go swimmingly for The Outcasts? Or will Hayter Hit Hard, no matter the odds?

Saraya disrespects fans already by ripping up their sign in favor of Hayter! Harley gets a mic to tell everyone to shut up! For The Outcasts have decided there is ONE MORE rule for this match! “The match does not being until Saraya slaps the slag!” The fans boo, Harley taunts Hayter but Hayter dares Saraya to take that free shot then.

AEW shares more of the sit-down interview with Will Ospreay and Ricochet.

The full interview is still available on AEW’s YouTube channel, but in this clip, Renee Paquette asks about the pressure being put on both men for their AEW International Championship match. Ricochet says he’s been here a thousand times before. Him coming into AEW was a chance to show everyone a different side of Ricochet. But even before he got a 360 look, all these people, from Don Callis, Kyle Fletcher, The Beast Mortos, Pac, and of course Will Ospreay, they had to say something. Ospreay says yeah, and the reason why is Ricochet forgot who he was. That six year “hiatus” and now look at him! His personality is showing, he is comfortable with himself again.

But Ospreay wants Ricochet to keep in mind, Renee said “pressure.” The pressure Ricochet is putting himself under. And now he is in the ring with, whether he likes it or not, “Little Bro” Ospreay, who is the best wrestler in the world right now. Whether or not either man is feeling the pressure of the moment, which one of them will stand tall at the Dynamite 5 Year Anniversary Show?

While The Bastard & The Swiss Superman betrayed Bryan Danielson, they still expect The Decoder to do his part and help defend these titles.

Backstage interview with Kris Statlander.

Lexy Nair is with The Galaxy’s Greatest and brings up how we haven’t seen her since that win in the “insane Street Fight” from All Out. Kris asks what Lexy wants her to do about that. To complain about her spot? To ask why she wins the big matches yet all anyone talks about is the loser? Should Kris could look into this camera and beg for her opportunity? Sorry, Lexy, guess she’s the odd woman out because she’s not that insecure. Kris knows who she is, what she does, and if you had to design a woman wrestler from the ground up, you wouldn’t be able to think of something near as good as Kris.

So Kris has a hard time feeling sorry for herself. She picks her spots, calls her shots, and when she’s ready, she’ll let us know. But in the meantime, every woman in AEW should be saying, “Thank You, Stat.” Because when you face Kris, you either get better, or you get destroyed. Kris heads out, but will she be heading up to the top of the division soon enough?

MXM Collection is here!

As promised, it is the Grand Slam finale to New York Fashion Week, and these two strut their stuff down the ramp and into the ring, which they then slither into. The fans cheer as they stand by what is clearly a person under a black cloth sheet, and they POSE! Mansoor fetches mics for him and Mason Madden, and they revel in the fans cheering them on. Mansoor says, “Ladies, gentlemen and everyone in between, are you ready for the Grand Slam finale to New York Fashion Week!?” Sure sounds like they are. Mason says this is the Sultan of Suave, Mansoor! Mansoor says this is the Height of Fashion, Mason Madden!

And together, they are the M X M Collection~! Fingertip touch, and then Mansoor reminds us that two weeks ago, they claimed Max Caster’s jacket for two reasons. One: Much like Max, it was ugly. Two: It was emblazoned with a lie! It says Max Caster is the Best Wrestler Alive? HAHAHAHAHA! MXM calm down from the laughing fit, and Mason says they have remedied the problem. They have made Caster’s jacket the grand, explosive climax to their little show. Now, we know not just anyone can model MXM’s avant-garde designs, so they made sure that for all of us, the little people, that their male models will be just as handsome as MXM.

So now, without further ado, please get ready for MXM’s Grand Slam Fashion Walk! We look back to the stage and strutting out first, “wearing a vision [Mason Madden] once had in an Appalachian sweat lodge,” Italy’s Felipe sports gold pants, big brimmed hat and sheer button up. Mansoor says wearing a ski suit that once braved the Matterhorn, it is Antonio! Third, “wearing 24 karat gold sifted from the rivers in Sierra Leone, this is Cameroon.” Not a bad jacket but are those sneakers on a necklace? Fourth, “wearing fur extracted from the flesh of the endangered capybara in the Galapagos Islands in Cameroon, this is Sierra Leone!”

Fifth, “in honor of the US Open, you know him, you love him, international tennis superstar, Ashley Arthur!” Oh get it? Name inversion. But denim short shorts might not be regulation for pro-tennis play… And last but not least, from right here in Queens, with a leopard print fur coat, purple pants and a walking stick… JEFF!! The union requires that even he is allowed to participate. Mansoor says give it up for all their male models! The fans do cheer, but it feels like the veiled man is getting anxious. Mason says now that we’ve all been sufficiently fluffed, time for the moment we’ve all come for! And if you haven’t yet, you will!

They looked around the world for the finest body they could find! The grandest musculature they could witness! And they found him in the forests on the outskirts of Düsseldorf, “the Pride of Prussia,” East Germany’s greatest export, MXM’s piece de resistance–that’s French for a fine piece of ass–put your hands together for the model of Caster’s jacket… HANS!! Hans is revealed and he is JACKED! The jacket, however, has a big heart cutout on the front where the buttons go, the sleeves are sheer with a flourish pattern, but MXM is more into Hans’ body. They have Hans spin, and we see the back, and it seems Hans is wearing sheer shorts and a speedo…

But the important thing is the back of the jacket: “Bratinum Max Caster BEST DRESSED ALIVE.” Arthur Ashe is getting quite the show, Hans. Mansoor loves the jacket, but he speaks for everyone here when he says… TAKE IT OFF! Hans does indeed take off the jacket, and his vascularity floors MXM! Hans flexes, Mansoor says he never thought he’d say this, but… Hans would be PERFECT for MXM Collection! It would be an honor if he touched tips. The fans fire up, and Hans holds up his finger, to then GRAB THE TIPS! How dare he! But SURPRISE! Hans is DADDY ASS! Billy Gunn DOUBLE LARIATS MXM down!

The fans fire up as Billy takes out all the other “models,” from Felipe to Jeff, but then MXM joins in! They all beat up on Billy, and then Mason reels him in. But here comes The Acclaimed! Caster & Bowens clear out the male models but MXM go running! The fans fire up as Bowens & Caster set Antonio up for the INVERTED BOMB! MXM want to know where the REAL Hans is, but Caster picks up the remade jacket. Caster puts it on?! Caster doesn’t seem to mind, and then he winds up… to POSE~! And then SCISSOR FINGER with Bowens & Billy! Will The Acclaimed give MXM their own makeover when these teams finally have a match?

Lumberjack Strap Match: Hangman Page VS Jeff Jarrett!

The Black Hat Cowboy’s rage has not only burned down Swerve’s childhood home, but it has burned the bridges between him and all those who were once his friend. But it has also gotten him on the wrong side of just about everyone else on the roster, which is why The Dark Order, The Bang Bang Gang, and Team Triple J are ringside, ready to lash out with straps!

The fans are torn but Jarrett gets away from the Ass Boys! Hangman drags Jarrett up, fireman’s carries, and DEATH VALLEY DRIVERS! Cover, TWO! Jarrett stays in this but Hangman argues with Aubrey about her count. Hangman kicks Jarrett around, scrapes him to the apron, but Jarrett holds ropes to stay off the ground. Hangman fires a hand, but Jarrett just fires up! The fans fire up, but Hangman ROCKS Jarrett again! Jarrett tells Hangman to hit him again! Hangman does, so Jarrett hits back! Screens go dark, but when they come back, Jarrett dodges a haymaker to RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! And more technical difficulties, so Collision goes to break.

Collision returns and Jarrett fires up! The fans fire up with him, and Jarrett TOSSES Hangman out! The Bang Bang Gang LASHES away on Hangman!

AEW Continental Championship Title Eliminator: Kazuchika Okada VS Sammy Guevara!

While The Rainmaker made it through Fatal 4 Way odds at All Out, The Spanish God has been fighting alongside Dustin Rhodes both in AEW and ROH. Will Sammy prove he’s ready for more gold? Or will Okada be the one walking away from this Collision?

The bell rings and the fans rally as the two circle. They tie up, and Okada waistlocks. Sammy switches, Okada pries the hold open, and he wrenches to a wristlock. Sammy reaches for ropes, Okada keeps him back, so Sammy spins, flips, and wrenches back! Okada kneels, grits his teeth, and fights up. Okada pulls Sammy’s hair, puts him on ropes, but lets off at 4. Okada fakes the chop to pat Sammy on the shoulder. Sammy nods and shrugs that off, then circles with Okada. But Okada kicks low! Okada CLUBS Sammy, snapmares, and runs side to side to basement DROPKICK! Sammy flounders to the apron while fans applaud.

Sammy rolls back in, Okada covers, ONE! Sammy pushes Okada away, goes back to ropes, but Okada ROCKS him! Okada whips, Sammy reverses then hurdles, backflips and DROPKICKS!

Sammy builds speed, and FOSBURY FLOPS! Down goes Okada and the fans fire up again! Sammy brings Okada up and into the ring, then aims, only for Okada to roll out the side. The fans cheer, and Sammy runs in around the way!

Sammy uses the steps to FLYING CUTTER to the floor! The fans fire up while both men are down, and a ring count starts. Sammy drags himself up, crawls to the apron and stands. Sammy aims again, but Okada avoids the Quebrada! Kick and DDT to the floor! Okada grins while fans applaud, and Collision goes picture in picture.

The ref checks Sammy but somehow, Sammy is still in this. Okada drags Sammy up, then whips him hard into railing! Sammy falls over, Okada soaks up cheers and jeers, then he goes back for Sammy. Okada rips up a fan’s sign cheering on Sammy, but then gives it back to the fan. Okada HAMMERS Sammy down, then drags him back up.

Sammy BOOTS Okada! The count is 7! Sammy runs up, Okada BACKDROPS him onto steel steps!! The ref hurries out to check Sammy, and Okada has a sinister look on his face.

Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (denies Sammy Guevara a title match)

The Spanish God came so close, but not even he could stop the rain! Will Sammy have to aim for a different title if he wants to be like #DustinTwoBelts? Will anyone stop Okada with the roll he’s been on?

My Thoughts:

A great Collision to finish up Grand Slam week, with only that one glaring flaw during the Lumberjack Strap match. TV production may be complex stuff, but this wasn’t even a live episode. Was someone half asleep and not paying attention to the cues for commercial breaks? It kinda killed the momentum of what was a very good match from Jarrett and Hangman, especially with all the people at ringside. But as such, the overbooking and distractions was a good way to give Hangman that win. Hangman also seems to be moving on to The Bang Bang Gang as he and Juice got into it. We certainly get Hangman VS Juice 1v1, and I would think Hangman wins that. Maybe Jay White returns as part of Hangman’s story?

The Saraya’s Rules match was a very fun opener, but Hayter won just as I figured. Hard to say which title scene she gets in, but as she’s already been world champion, maybe she challenges Mercedes Mone for the TBS Championship, going for the historic AEW Women’s Division double, same as Hikaru Shida and others have. Great Trios Tornado match, and I suppose The Learning Tree winning makes sense if the story is to continue. Jericho taking the win when Bill hit the finish was also something we should’ve expected. Technically it should be Big Bill with the right to challenge Mark Briscoe, but Jericho is Jericho and therefore selfish. Maybe this “wasted” title shot becomes another seed of dysfunction within the faction.

Really good match from Action and Brody, but of course Brody won. The surprise was The Righteous going after Top Flight. I suppose we get Top Flight Airlines VS Archer & Righteous, the winners getting a Six Man Tag with House of Black, and then the Six Man Tag leads to new challengers for the Trios Championships. Speaking of which, very good stuff in the title match tonight, and it went about as I expected: Yuta didn’t want in; Claudio forces his hand; Yuta goes berserk like he has before, and that’s how the team wins. Maybe if this new Blackpool Combat Club runs into a team like House of Black or Archer & Righteous, that is when they lose titles, but it won’t be until then.

Great title match from Jack Perry and Minoru Suzuki, especially when Suzuki was not on my list of expected challengers. Perry choosing to win by count out was an interesting move, but I like Shibata showing up to stop Perry from going further. Still a bit disappointed nothing was truly settled between the Jericho Vortex and the trio of Samoa Joe, Hook & Shibata, though. But Shibata VS Perry will be great stuff, and Perry finds an even sneakier way to retain the title. He might even take the count out loss so that Champion’s Advantage keeps the belt with him. I would still think someone like Daniel Garcia could challenge for the title and maybe even win it.

Awesome Triple Threat to celebrate lucha libre and Hispanic Heritage Month, even though it’s less a month and just the four weeks between September 15th and October 15th. But great win for Hologram, and I really like that La Faccion Ingobernable is back, with Mortos as their heavy instead of Vance. Still scratching my head as to where the resolution to the story of Rush and Don Callis went. But whatever, LFI should’ve been what was going on all along, and maybe they can feud with whatever form The Don Callis Family takes in the near future.

Very fun video from The Outrunners, I just hope they get going in the ring, really build up their record. Very fun segment from MXM with The Acclaimed, but I don’t think they needed that many “male models” who were of course indie wrestlers. And I could just feel that “Hans” was Billy Gunn all along, but that was a great moment to really remind us all that Billy is jacked. Great brawl that ran MXM off, and the tag match that’s coming will be a lot of fun. As I said before, it probably won’t outright lead someone to a title match, but if MXM gets a win over The Acclaimed, that is a big thing for their rise in the ranks.

And great main event out of Sammy and Okada. I really got worried for Sammy at a couple points, but then I was a little unsure why Sammy didn’t sell the leg more. Okada still won out, Sammy will just have to settle for being ROH World Tag Team Champion with Dustin for now. Maybe Sammy should shift to the ROH World TV Championship, get the belt back from Atlantis Jr. or something. As for Okada, I would think Konosuke Takeshita is still his next challenger, they need to get that 1v1 done, probably for WrestleDream. That could be a real show stealer given what we know both men are capable of.

My Score: 8.8/10
