PLAY BY PLAY
Trick Williams is here!
The fans are chanting for it, “WHOOP DAT TRICK!” Trick gets the mic and says he appreciates that, but he isn’t here to do talking. He’s here for one reason: Dunne started this, but he’ll finish this! Pete Dunne, bring your ass out here! But instead, we get Ethan Page. All Ego has them cut his music so he can tell Trick, “I am sooooo sorry that I’m not Pete Dunne. But I am NXT Champion, All Ego Ethan Page. But you know that, you were raising my hand this past Sunday at No Mercy.” And usually it is tradition that after a champion defends their title, they open the show. And that’s right, Trick only did that once!
The fans continue to sing “Ethan Sucks! Believe In Joe!” Trick finishes the line, put one some clothes and shut up! Trick is a man of his word, he called that title match down the middle. But don’t get comfy, Trick’s coming back for his title. For now, Trick has unfinished business with Dunne. Ethan laughs and says let’s go back a bit. Trick’s title? Really? Because Ethan thought he’d be defending his title in four weeks, the move to CW and in Chicago. That’s Ethan defending the title, not Trick. Ethan would be surprised if Trick even makes it to Chicago! Here comes Dunne! Trick dodges and fires haymakers! The brawl is on!
The fans fire up, security runs out here, and they back these two down! This match is meant for the main event! Will someone #FigureItOut?
Hank ‘n’ Tank walk ‘n’ talk.
They’ve called their shot, so now they gotta execute! Gallus, Rascalz, it don’t matter, it’ll be like a two-a-day in training! They hit first, they hit last, HONK HONK! But then Gallus steps in, and Markus says to save their breath. He and Wolfie are going to run through them and The Rascalz. If they want content for social media, come see them right now. Tank says fine, they’ll Fill Up The Tank right now! Refs rush in to stop this from turning into a fight, they gotta go to the ring. Jaida Parker walks by and says this is why she told her boys to stay out this mess. But then the Fatal Influence walk over and tell her she’s missing something.
Oh right, never mind, she LOST on Sunday. Jaida says at least she’s not riding the… clout of these two. Rawr, this kitty has claws. Jazmyn says she’s not clout chasing. And if Jaida’s ribs aren’t too broken, Jazmyn can prove it tonight. Fine, make sure to bring your two mommies with her. Miss Parker heads out, but will there be a major meltdown so soon after No Mercy?

The D’Angelo Family talks backstage.
They all complain about Oba Femi beating up on Channing Lorenzo & Luca Crusifino during the title match on Sunday. But then hold up, Oba Femi himself walks in. Stacks says The Ruler’s got balls for walking over. Oba understands their frustrations. Oba knows it is very difficult for them to come to terms with the fact that their boss was no match for Oba. Oh please! Oba got lucky. He won at No Mercy, but The Don ain’t done. And Oba’s gonna part with that title real soon. Big words from such a small woman. In many cultures, the woman is meant to be seen, not heard. That’s it! Rizzo wants after Oba, but the boys keep her back!
Tony steps in and asks who Oba thinks he is! In Tony’s culture, you talk to a lady like that, and you get smacked in the mouth. Oba says maybe Tony should do something about it. Luca asks if that’s a challenge. Oba says you heard him. Tony has Luca stand down. Stacks will handle this. Stacks says you got it. Rizzo isn’t sure, but Tony knows The Underboss will handle this. No one talks to Rizzo like that and gets away with it. But given how Oba handled Tony, will he have no problem handling Tony’s right hand man?
No Quarter Catch Crew talk backstage.
Wren Sinclair says Tavion Heights returns from Japan soon, so maybe- WHOA! Gallus is throwing a tantrum! Joe is furious that Je’Von got involved out there. Joe is gonna END him! He’ll do it so Je’Von never gets to have his first legal pint! Yeah, they should do it tonight! End him so all the little TikTokers who love watching him flip and bounce around- Wren says hey, guys, they get Gallus is upset, but Charles wants them to keep it down. Myles has sensitive ears. Plus, why would Joe want to face Je’Von again? He’s really good, and even Logan Paul- Joe shouts, and asks if she’s finished. Mark says after Je’Von, Gallus comes for the Cup!
Oh, you want some of them? You think you can get your names on the Cup? Wren says Charles will- He stops Wren himself and says she’s new here. Gallus heads out and Charlie tells her to calm down. Stop just calling out everyone! She needs a convincing sales pitch. Take it in, think about it, and once that little head of hers is clear, then she makes a decision. Okay, got it. Will the Iron King crush the Young OG? Will he then look to rip that Cup out of Charlie’s grip?
Rosemary w/ Wendy Choo VS Tatum Paxley!
While the #SleepyPsycho could not put Kelani Jordan to bed, who would’ve thought twisted Tatum would go after her! But just like with Kelani, Wendy calls in the help of her wicked new friend! Will this demented playdate be a nightmare come to life?

Backstage interview with Pete Dunne.
Sarah is with The Bruiserweight, and extra security, as she says he is a man on the mission. He told Trick to #FigureItOut, and Dunne says yeah! Trick’s gonna figure out that actions have consequences! This ain’t no music video, this is real life! And Trick learns the lesson of a lifetime! Wait, Trick still gets in!

No more waiting, Trick VS Dunne happens next! Trick and Dunne head out, and Ethan steps in. This place is starting to fall apart with Ava as GM, huh?
Ava scowls at All Ego, but will order be restored once Trick and Dunne finally “figure it out” in the ring?
Jordynne Grace speaks.
Jordynne was on social media to say that next week is a big week for wrestling. WWE Week on USA means all three shows, from Raw to NXT to SmackDown, will be on the same network. But she has something to make it even bigger. She has something that will make it historic! She spoke with Ava, and it is official. For the first time ever, Jordynne defends the TNA Knockouts Championship in an OPEN CHALLENGE on NXT! She wants to keep testing herself against the best, so if there is a woman who thinks she can fill Jordynne’s shoes, she’s more than happy to give that shot. See you soon, WWE Universe!
Jordynne’s on her way back to NXT, but who will be brave enough to step to The Juggernaut?

Ridge Holland speaks.
“Chase University welcomed me in at my lowest point, restored my confidence, gave me a sense of belonging. So why destroy Mr. Chase? Put him in the hospital. Because they failed. We were champions! But Chase U did what Chase U does: Win the big one, but can’t keep it. I brought them all back to prominence! Look at everything I did for Chase U! New look, new classroom. You think Duke Hudson could’ve done what I did? All he did was criticize every move I made. Duke Hudson is a smug, arrogant, A-hole! And Riley, he’s no different. They got their big title match at NXT Heatwave, they accepted my help in getting there.
“But when it came time to go? ‘Sorry, Ridge, stay home.’ And they failed without me! I finally became a champion, and it got ripped away because of mediocrity. But now, NXT, you’re going to get the man that I fought so hard not to be. The step by step destruction of Chase U begins next week. And Thea, I’m going to love every second of it.” The Yorkshire Grit STOMPS the trophies apart, will he leave Chase U with absolutely nothing?
Brooks Jensen is backstage.
Shawn Spears walks over and says there’s something he wants to tell Jensen. When Edris & Malik viciously attacked Spears, Jensen was the first one there. Jensen basically saved Spears. And then what Jensen did for him, attacking Edris and beating Malik, Spears wants to say something people probably haven’t said to Jensen in a long time. “Thanks.” Spears means that. He has Jensen look him in the eyes as he says thanks. This whole time, Spears thought he was the one saving Jensen, but turns out Jensen’s the one saving Spears. Spears is committed to this! He won’t leave Jensen like everyone else has.
Jensen asks, then why does everyone think Spears is manipulating him? Spears says Jensen knows Spears doesn’t care what anyone else thinks. So what does Jensen believe? Think about it. Spears thanks Jensen again, then leaves. Dion Lennox walks by and says that is textbook psychological manipulation. What? Dion says this is a classic case of gaslighting, bro. Dion leaves, and we see Spears was still watching from afar. Will The Chair Man have to keep others from showing Jensen the truth?
Joe Coffey w/ Gallus VS Je’Von Evans!
The Iron King cheated the Young OG last time, but ya boi bouncy~, so he bounced back and made sure Joe didn’t cheat tonight’s Triple Threat tag. Will Je’Von be able to even the score? Or will Gallus make good on their promise to end Je’Von’s bright future before it begins?

Cedric also gets Je’Von out of there before Gallus can pounce! Will the Gallus Boys not be on top when numbers aren’t in their advantage?
Lyra and Tatum regroup backstage.
Tatum gushes over her “sweet dove” having returned! Tatum knew that one day Lyra would forgive Tatum and realize what they had was special! And nobody has Lyra’s back on Raw like Tatum did on NXT. Lyra says hold on, let’s review. The issue was that Tatum wouldn’t let Lyra have any other friends. And when Lyra told Tatum to make friends, she didn’t mean literally make… But the point is, Lyra knows they didn’t leave things on the best terms. Lyra said she’d never come back, but she just couldn’t help it. Tatum says it has been so lonely around here. Lyra says chin up, kid. Tatum has backup now.
And Lyra did realize, she’d rather be fighting alongside Tatum than against her. Let’s go show those weirdos just how weird Tatum really is! YES YES YES! But uh, could they maybe…? Yeah, okay. They hug it out again! Will Wendy & Rosemary be in for quite the fight now that the former NXT Women’s Champion is teamed with twisted Tatum?

Sarah is with the NXT General Manager, and says tonight has been completely chaotic, what with Trick and Dunne brawling all night, not figuring anything out. How does Ava plan on settling things? Ava knows those two haven’t made it easy. The ref was just doing his job, but Ava is sure she speaks for the fans when she says there has to be a winner. So next week, Last Man Standing! And then whoever wins will face Ethan Page for the NXT Championship on October 1st! Sarah thanks Ava for her time. Will that massive golden opportunity be just the thing to #FigureItOut?

The Ruler is still North American Champion, even after The Don pushed him further than just about any one opponent ever has. However, The D’Angelo Family isn’t letting him off the hook for his disrespect! Can the Underboss conquer the mountain that Tony could not? Or will Oba just add him to that long list of names?
NXT returns and The Family makes their entrance. The bell rings and Oba circles with Stacks. They approach, Stacks dodges and fires hands! Stacks knees low, whips, but Oba blocks to reverse! Oba runs up but stacks dodges to fire hands! Stacks climbs, rains down fists, but Oba stops him at two! Oba RAMS Stacks into a corner, then TOSSES him back the other way! Oba runs in, blocks a boot, and he short arm LARIATS! Oba looms over Stacks, drags him around, and drops a BIG elbow! And another BIG elbow! And then another BIG elbow! Cover, TWO! Tony coaches Stacks but Oba pushes Stacks around.
Oba clamps on a chinlock, and he grinds Stacks down. The Family rallies, as do the fans, and Stacks fights up. Stacks JAWBREAKERS free! Oba staggers, but he scoops Stacks. stacks slips free to ENZIGIRI! The fans fire up as Stacks DROPKICKS Oba out! Stacks goes to the apron, takes aim, but Oba CHOPS Stacks down! The fans fire up again and Oba tells Tony that he did this. Oba steps back in, stalks Stacks, then whips him to CLOBBER him! Oba drags Stacks up to whip and CLOBBER him again! Stacks writhes, the fans rally, and Oba hauls Stacks up again. Scoop and SLAM into the ropes! Stacks writhes, but Oba kicks him around.
Oba stomps Stacks’ legs, the ref counts, and Oba stares Tony down as he lets off. Oba drags Stacks by those legs, but Stacks works to roll Oba up! Oba stays up to stomp Stacks! But Stacks avoids the elbow drop! Stacks stands, Oba blocks a boot, but Stacks dodges the lariat! Oba hurries but Stacks elbows free! Stacks fires hands, but Oba choke grips! Stacks CHOPS, kicks a leg, fires more shots, and he’s free! Stacks BOOTS Oba, runs, POP-UP DROPKICK! The fans fire up as Stacks hurries up top! Stacks leaps but Oba gets under! The leg jams, Oba UPPERCUTS Stacks into a corner! Then Oba hauls Stacks up, SHOTPUT!
Oba fires up, the fans are with him, POP-UP POWERBOMB!! Cover, Oba wins!
Winner: Oba Femi, by pinfall
Tony stares Oba down, but that #FallFromGrace is on The Don. Will no one from anywhere ever truly take down The Ruler?
Brinley Reece talks with Karmen Petrovic backstage.
They both loved No Mercy. And both their favorite part was Giulia’s arrival. Mind blowing! Ashante THEE Adonis be creeping as Karmen asks how Edris is doing. Not good. Karmen heard he needed shoulder surgery after what Jensen did. Brin feels awful. And ever since then, Malik hasn’t talked to Brin. Ashante has a rose and says he feels so bad about what happened to Edris & Malik. But Adonisly, if she needs a shoulder to cry on, he’s right here for her. Um… Luckily, Eddy Thorpe steps in to say not to take anything from Adonis. Is this his new tactic? The ladies leave, and Adonis says look, it’s DJ Plutonic.
But hey, just because Eddy’s got no game, doesn’t mean he can mess with Ashante’s. So just let him do his thing, or he’ll get this work. Ashante leaves, still holding his rose. Will Ashante find some way to score? Or does he have to learn how to do things honestly rather than Adonisly?
Je’Von talks with NQCC.
The Young OG says this Cup is legit. Look at these names on here. He might put his name right around here. One day. Wren asks what makes him thinks he deserves a shot? Oh, well, one, he went pretty deep in that Speed Tournament last week. Two, he main-evented Heatwave in a banger Fatal 4. And three, he just spun the block on Joe Coffey. Oh, those are very compelling points. Does he have a fourth? Well, Wren’s cool, but this is starting to turn into a job interview with all these questions. He hasn’t really had a job other than this. Wren says she does feel he deserves a shot. Next week even? Yes, next week! Say less!
They shake hands, Je’Von heads out, and Wren tells Charles that she just gave Je’Von a Cup match, so he better get ready! W-What?! Why!? Well, she did what he told her to do! Told her what to do!? To ask contenders why they think they deserve a shot, hear their sales pitch, and then give it a second to sink in before deciding. She did, and Je’Von does. Charlie is beside himself. But this isn’t official, right? Wren didn’t speak to Ava yet? Well, no, but Je’Von’s probably on his way… Charlie throws a fit, shouts at Myles, and asks why he didn’t do anything! Myles takes out his earbud and asks what’s going on.
Charlie storms off, Wren says Je’Von thinks she’s cool. Okay… But if Wren’s getting Charlie into matches, is she also going to end up losing the NQCC that Cup?
Jaida Parker VS Jazmyn Nyx w/ The Fatal Influence!
While Miss Parker may not have won the NXT Women’s Championship, she got a lot closer than all three Fatal Influencers have combined! Will she show a fellow former soccer player that she can still kick ass, even with bad ribs? Or will the teachings of Jacy & Fallon help Jazmyn finally stand out in the ring?
NXT returns and Jaida makes her entrance. The bell rings and Jazmyn mocks Jaida over the taped ribs. The two tie up, Jazmyn headlocks, and she holds on tight as Jaida tries to suplex out. Jaida powers out, then she runs Jazmyn over! Jazmyn gets up in a huff, the two reset, and they tie up. Jazmyn knees low, then KICKS the legs! Jaida hobbles, Jazmyn whips, but Jaida reverses. Jaida CLOBBERS Jazmyn, “Too easy!” Jaida has Jazmyn in a corner, whips corner to corner, then runs up to back body block! The fans rally for Jaida as she whips again! Jazmyn comes back, but into a BACKDROP! Jaida runs up to cover, TWO!
Jaida snarls, clamps onto Jazmyn, scoops, but Jazmyn slips free to waistlock. Jaida bucks the O’Conner, but now Fallon distracts. The ref reprimands, but Jazmyn runs up! Jaida dodges but then the leg sweep trips her! Jazmyn keeps moving to PENALTY KICK! Jaida clutches her ribs and writhes, but Jazmyn kicks her more and more! Jazmyn stalks Jaida, Jaida body shots! And body shots! Jaida whips, Jazmyn reverses and CALF KICKS! Jaida again writhes but Jacy & Fallon cheer. Jazmyn boops Jaida, then runs to SOMERSAULT SENTON! Cover, TWO! Jaida toughs it out but Jazmyn clamps on the body scissor squeeze!
The fans rally, Jazmyn adds a crossface component, but Jaida endures. Jaida pries free, ELBOWS away, but Jazmyn squeezes tighter! Jaida shifts around, makes Jazmyn a backpack, and she powers Jazmyn into a fireman’s carry! Jazmyn fires elbows, slips free, and CLUBS Jaida in the back! Jazmyn runs, but into a fireman’s carry! SAMOAN DROP! The fans fire up as Jaida takes aim. Jaida ROCKS Jazmyn again and again, then CLOBBERS her! And LAIRTS! The fans fire up as Jaida scoops to SLAM! Jaida taunts Jacy & Fallon, then storms up to RAM Jazmyn! And RAMS her again! Jaida then puts Jazmyn in the ropes, to CHOP!
The fans fire up, Jaida blows a kiss, then TEARDROPS! the fans fire up as Jaida high steps, then she brings Jazmyn up. Jaida suplexes, but Jazmyn cradle counters! TWO! Jaida runs but Jazmyn trips her again! Jaida avoids the gamangiri, runs, blows past Jazmyn, then HIPNOTIC!! Cover, Jaida wins!
Winner: Jaida Parker, by pinfall
A big rebound win, but now Jacy & Fallon attack! The fans boo as Fatal Influence gets toxic! But Jaida fights back with big hands and big knees! But Jacy ROLLING ELBOWS! The fans boo as the mugging continues! They set Jaida up for Jazmyn’s PELE! Will Jacy, Jazmyn & Fallon continue to do what they want to who they want until the NXT Women’s Division is under the influence?
The NXT Women’s Division is watching.
Lola Vice says she’s so proud of Kelani Jordan for winning Sunday. The others agree, that was a great defense. But Izzi Dame is completely over all of that. But to what’s coming next, Kendal Grey asks Carlee Bright if she thinks you know who will be here tonight. Who knows, she has so much aura, it is something everyone wants to see. But The Fatal Influence walks in and Jacy mockingly asks, “Is the newbie gonna come out? O M G~!” She then says if someone wants to talk aura, look no further. This trio has all the aura. Lola says they’re just afraid of new competition. Fallon says no, they’re not afraid of girls who have been off PLEs.
Kelani says this is not what’s happening right now. She will not let these three poison the locker room with their toxicity. This is THE best women’s division, and it’s because of what they do in the ring, not in the back with their petty drama. Jacy says even as a champion, Kelani has a lot to learn. Count your days as champ, Kelani, because they’re numbered. Fatal Influence leaves the watch party, but will The Standout just have to humble them herself?
Duke Hudson tweets.
“Still processing everything that’s happened on Sunday, but wanted to say, Mr. Chase is still in the hospital. Now to watch Ridge in our classroom and breaking MY MVP trophy. Enough is enough. Next week, I get revenge for Thea, for Riley, and for Mr. Chase.” Duke is going after Ridge, who will stay standing after this clash of titans?
Roxanne Perez is here!
The Prodigy is still NXT Women’s Champion, and she struts her way to the ring, even as fans boo. She grabs the mic and says she’s sure they’re all so sick of seeing this scene, but she’s not! Yeah, yeah, Jaida slapped the taste out of Roxie’s mouth, but defeat tastes so much worse, doesn’t it? And she’s been handing out plates of it ever since she arrived here. Second all time in PLE matches. Second all time in PLE wins! Iyo Sky? Asuka? She’s smashing all their records! So let’s be honest: 99% of the women who have competed in this ring only dream of having the career she’s already had! Even the main roster can’t stop talking about her!
The fans boo, then they bring up “GIU~LIA~!” Roxie says y’know what, she’ll give Jaida some credit. At No Mercy, Jaida proved she is the future of NXT. The problem is, Roxie proved what she can’t be taught, reproduced, or touched! She is the most wanted woman in all of NXT! The fantasy match-up constant! Roxie VS X, Roxie VS Y, but when it comes to reality meeting fantasy, the results are always the same and they will never change! Like she said, no one has the ability to take this title from her! It doesn’t matter if you’re the hottest NXT Prospect, if you’re a former NXT Women’s Champion, or even if you’re the hottest free agent from Japan trying to steal Roxie’s shine!
Roxie promises us all that when the smoke clears, it will be her holding her title in the air. But then the lights go out! The fans fire up, because… It’s Chelsea Green!? The Hot Mess is back again, and she laughs at little Roxie. Was she expecting someone else? Rhetorical question! And another rhetorical question: Why does this section smell like mildew and BO? It’s called deodorant, people! Chelsea continues to the ring and says back to the speculation as to who “Miss Polly Pocket” will talk about and who interrupts her, yada yada. As we know, Chelsea is beloved by the WWE Universe! Well, sure is down in NXT.
Chelsea says she will do anything for her fans! Well, most of them, because most fans are creepy~! But regardless, here she is~, you little pint-sized champion! And nobody, and she repeats, nobody, not Sir Nicholas the Prickless, not Pinhead Pearce, and not even Ava, will tell Chelsea she is NOT the #1 contender! Wait, the lights go down again! And this time, it’s GIULIA~! The fans really go wild as the #BeautifulMadness has arrived! One of Stardom’s best takes her time walking around the ring before she steps up and in to be face to face with the champ. Chelsea yips and yaps at her, but that just gets her a FOREARM, and a KNEE!
The fans fire up as Giulia stands over the Hot Mess. Roxie is a bit annoyed seeing how easily Giulia did that. Giulia grabs the mic from Chelsea to tell Roxie, “Me, you, the CW.” The fans fire up as NXT’s next era is going to be insane! But will Roxie give in to the Beautiful Madness? Or can she keep her sanity as well as that championship?
My Thoughts:
Much like Raw last night, this was a great NXT to follow up No Mercy and build things for the coming weeks. Great stuff with Trick and Dunne right from the start, their constant brawling “forcing” their match to be sooner than the main event. It was a great match, and it was very clever to go with the double count out draw. They push this feud a little further, and now Trick VS Dunne in a Last Man Standing will be an awesome contender’s match. Dunne’s got two contenders matches in a row, and I have a feeling he isn’t winning either. Raw’s Fatal 4 will likely be won by Jey Uso so he can face Bron Breakker, and I would think Trick wins so he and Ethan can headline the CW premiere.
Great promos leading into the Triple Threat Tag match. I really like that it was the Triple Threat with all teams active at once, it kept things moving. Great overbooking, as of course Good Brothers weren’t going to let Hank ‘n’ Tank get their shot, and Je’Von still needed to settle things with Joe Coffey. Rascalz VS Fraxiom will be awesome, but I’m pretty sure Fraxiom retains. It might be because Wes Lee interferes, it might just be a clean match and the NXT Superstars keep the NXT titles. But I would think Wes shows up next week, goes after The Rascalz, and that sets up Wes VS Zach 2, or even Wes VS Trey, for a big TNA show.
Great match from Je’Von and Joe Coffey, even with Gallus being a concern, but logical move for Cedric to go out there. But instead of setting up a tag match, Je’Von goes back to the Heritage Cup. Wren Sinclair is really finding herself in this position, she’s very funny, and Dempsey VS Je’Von will be a really fun Heritage Cup match. I feel like Gallus will cost Je’Von and maybe then we get Je’Von & Cedric VS Gallus. Good promo from Jensen with Spears and Dion, as well as a good promo from Brinley, Karmen, Ashante and Eddy. Matches being set up all over while interweaving stories, and while Spears’ arm is in a sling, he probably uses Jensen as his metaphorical right hand to beat up people Spears says are against Jensen.
A very good but very quick match from Lexis and Oro. Lexis crossing the line with what he said, then cheating to win, we’re definitely getting a rematch that goes for longer, Oro wins, and then we’ll do a stipulation match blowoff, much like all of Lexis’s other feuds. I was surprised Rosemary returned just to lose another match, but Rosemary and Wendy beating up Tatum to bring out Lyra was a big surprise. Lyra only just came back to Raw to add to the story with Pure Fusion Collective, but I guess they want Lyra to help Tatum push past this story with Wendy so that Tatum can move up towards some other title opportunity.
Good promo with Oba and the D’Angelo Family, and very good match for Stacks against Oba, but of course Oba beat Stacks. He probably beats Luca in another match in the next couple of weeks, and then who knows, Tony probably goes for his own rematch with Oba for the CW premiere or something, and chances are, Tony wins there because there are still plenty of Tony D fans. Good promo from Jordynne Grace to set up a TNA Knockouts Championship match, can’t wait to see who tries her. They surely won’t win, TNA titles staying with TNA like NXT titles staying with NXT. Very good promo from Ridge, and good tweet response from Duke, they’re going to have an awesome match.
Very good match from Jaida with Jazmyn, and great spot for it to be the main event match. Solid win for Jaida, but of course Fatal Influence attacks. And with the promo backstage, it feels like Jaida might be joining forces with Kelani and Lola against Jacy, Jazmyn & Fallon. To be fair, she would’ve also been a good choice joining Lash & Jakara but then stories pivoted. Even so, Lola and Kelani also fit the part of superstars Fatal Influence hate, i.e. those that came from other sports instead of being pro-wrestlers from the start. And with it being Lola, Jaida & Kelani, there’s a good chance they win, but we could also see Fatal Influence cheat and get a pin on Kelani to set up a title match.
And speaking of the women’s division and titles, great promo from Roxanne, and great interruption swerve with Chelsea showing up. But yeah, Giulia of course still showed up. Chelsea was basically brought out so Giulia could hit someone and still stare Roxie down to stake her claim. Giulia probably also faces Chelsea 1v1 and wins to give fans a sample of what she can do before the title match. And between it being the CW premiere and Roxie already having put in a great reign as a Heel, I would be very surprised if Giulia didn’t win. New era, new champion, and Roxie moving on to RawDown, it just makes sense.
My Score: 8.8/10

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

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

TIME ADVENTURE!
Bailey pushes Westbrook down, goes up the corner, and the fans fire up for the ULTIMATE WEAPON! Cover, Bailey wins!
Winner: Mike Bailey, by pinfall
Another fast ‘n’ furious finish, and Bailey’s on a hot streak! But now, the other side of JetSpeed looks to keep it up! But just who is Kevin Knight defending the TNT Championship against? It’s… BRIAN CAGE!? The Machine finally returns to action, and he has the Don Callis Family with him! Will Cage be able to ground Knight and take this title back to the family?

AEW reveals the Men’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament Brackets!
This year’s tournaments will go through Double or Nothing, and the finals will coincide with Forbidden Door 2026 on Sunday, June 28th in San Jose, California! The winner of each tournament will then challenge for THE AEW World Championship and AEW Women’s World Championships on August 30th at All In: London! And so, for the opening round, it will be: “Jungle” Jack Perry VS Mark Davis; Claudio Castagnoli VS Brody King; then Double or Nothing has both Samoa Joe VS Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland VS Bandido!
“Jungle” Jack Perry speaks.
“Mark Davis… I’m sure you feel some congratulations are in order. But you’re not champion to me. You see, you’re built like an Australia grizzly bear, yet you still needed somebody to hit me in the back with a golf club for you to beat me. At Stadium Stampede, bring your friends, bring any weapon you want, and I will crack you over the skull with it. Because anything goes. But after that, it’s back to grass roots, because it is you and me, fighting for a shot at the world title at All In: London. And in the Owen Hart Tournament, I will prove to you beyond a shadow of a doubt that I’m a better wrestler than you. I am the FUTURE world champion!
“And if you don’t like that, F YOU!” Jungle Jack is sharpening his knife, but will his edge be razor sharp when it comes time to cut down Dunkzilla?
Will Ospreay VS Ace Austin!
We’ve seen the Aerial Assassin training with The Death Riders, he’s won gold with his old friends in The United Empire, and now he’s about to face a dangerous man at Double or Nothing. Will Ospreay be more than ready for Samoa Joe after tonight? Or will he fail to even get past The Inevitable?
The bell rings and the fans cheer Ospreay as he stares down with Ace. Ospreay offers a handshake, Ace accepts, and the fans cheer the sportsmanship. They circle, tie up, and Ospreay wrenches to wristlock. Ace rolls, handsprings, and wrenches, but Ospreay rolls, kips up, and wrenches back. Ospreay hammerlocks, Ace rolls to kip up and wrench to then armlock. Ospreay endures the grind, fights around, and he arm-drags Ace down. Ace endures, fights around, and rises up. Ace shoots through to waistlock but Ospreay switches. Ospreay hits the headlock takeover, Ace headscissors, but Ospreay kips free.
The fans cheer the standoff, and the two reset. They feel things out, knuckle lock, and go shoulder to shoulder in a Test of Strength. The fans rally as Ace pushes Ospreay back. Ace has Ospreay down for a knuckle lock cover, ONE as Ospreay gets his arm up. Ace pushes it down, cover, ONE as Ospreay gets the other arm up. Ace tries again, ONE as Ospreay bridges! Ace jumps up, but Ospreay holds the bridge! That training truly pays off! Ace jumps, Ospreay gets him for a MONKEY FLIP! The fans fire up as Ospreay then arm-drags! Ospreay wristlocks and he bends the fingers! Ospreay isolates the arm to then STOMP it!

Ace TAPS, Ospreay wins!!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by submission
That might’ve been Ospreay’s first win by submission ever! He signals that his neck is no longer a problem, and he shows Ace respect for that fight. Ace accepts the handshake again, and Ospreay is moving on towards Double or Nothing with a great amount of momentum. But wait! SAMOA JOE is here! He and The Opps walk out on stage, and with mic in hand, Joe says, “Ospreay, Ospreay… OSPREAY, OSPREAY!” Joe is clearly mocking the chants for Ospreay, and the fans give genuine chanting and even singing in return. Joe says he just wanted to make sure Ospreay was listening, because these past few weeks, it seemed like Ospreay had a hard time hearing him.
Despite Ospreay’s best efforts, fate has put them on a collision course in the opening round of the Owen Hart Cup. The fans like the sound of that! Joe say she is here for one reason and one reason alone. He wants to speak about choices and consequences. Ospreay could’ve made the right choice and get a bye in this tournament, because that is what Joe would do for one of his friends. But Ospreay chose poorly. He could’ve been with the team that would do nothing but support and enhance Ospreay, but he decided to be a lapdog for Moxley and the Death Riders. The fans boo, Ospreay says he’s not a Death Rider.
Joe says Ospreay has made his choice, and come Double or Nothing, Joe makes Ospreay suffer the consequences. But Joe leaves Ospreay in peace tonight, for he has his date with destiny. But unfortunately, Joe’s friends, Katsuyori Shibata & Anthony Bowens, still feel slighted, and he doesn’t put leashes on his friends. Shibata & Bowens storm down the ramp, Ospreay ready to fight them both if he has to. But then The Death Riders appear! Ospreay may not have officially joined the club, but the Death Riders aren’t going to let their investment go to waste! The Opps say they’re #NeverLacking, but that doesn’t seem to be the case now!
Shibata & Bowens back down while Moxley, Marina, Claudio, Yuta, Garcia & Pac all step up to support Ospreay. Joe says, “Soon. Soon.” The fans cheer the Death Riders, or at least Moxley, but Bowens promises Joe is gonna kill you, Ospreay! The dream match for Double or Nothing is on, but will the training with The Death Riders make Ospreay the new King of Harts?
BREAKING NEWS for next week!
If you liked last week’s THREE HOUR block of AEW, then you’ll love this next one! Portland, Maine, the last Wednesday before Double or Nothing, Dynamite & Collision are combining forces again! Three hours all on TBS and HBO Max, make sure your DVR is set accordingly!
Backstage interview with Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita.
Renee is now with The Invisible Hand & The Alpha, saying tonight is a huge opportunity in the main event, Konosuke facing Darby Allin for THE AEW World Championship. Konosuke could be heading into Double or Nothing as a- Callis stops Renee there to say Konosuke will be heading into Double or Nothing as a DOUBLE champion! But then MJF steps in, apologizes for the interruption but says Renee’s doing a great job. The Scumbag tells Konosuke that while it’s been a minute since the two of them have talked, three years actually, back when MJF beat him… MJF has seen Konosuke develop into truly one of the best wrestlers in the world!
MJF believes that tonight, Konosuke beats Darby for the title, goes to DON to beat Okada, and MJF can’t think of a better match than Konosuke VS MJF Part 2 for the world title. How’s that sound? MJF offers a handshake, Konosuke shakes his hand, but in Japanese, Konosuke tells MJF that he’ll beat the crap out of him. Thankfully, MJF doesn’t know Japanese. Callis says that was a nice pep talk MJF just gave, and MJF says yes, he knows. That kid needs to win, okay? MJF can’t let Darby turn him into some disgusting, bald freak! No offense, Callis looks great. But look, there is only one foolproof way to know MJF won’t be put in that situation.
So if things get hairy… MJF hands over the Dynamite Diamond Ring! Callis smiles, and say she understands what to do with it. But then in steps Andrade. El Idolo takes off his hat to shake out his amazing head of hair, and smiles at MJF. MJF frowns and leaves. Callis says here’s the deal: Takeshita will bring the world title home to the Don Callis Family tonight! Andrade asks, “How you know?” Callis says aye dios mio, he seriously doesn’t know where Andrade learned English. Andrade says one way or another, the next time, that will be HIS title. Callis says yes, he knows, it’s all good. Callis is a man of many talents, but will his family be dripping with gold thanks to a diamond ring?
AEW now announces the Women’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament brackets!
Double or Nothing will see Willow Nightingale, the reigning Queen of Harts, take on Alex Windsor, while we will see Persephone VS Hazuki, Skye Blue vs Sareee, and Mina Shirakawa VS Athena! Champions from around the world are gathering for this tournament, but who will be headed to Forbidden Door, and then All In: London?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Renee Paquette is now with Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong, and Willow Nightingale. Renee commends Cassidy on his part in the 10 Man Tag victory. But it seems that there is even more business to attend to. Cassidy says yes, the team has a shot at THE AEW World Tag Team Championships. It doesn’t matter who it is, they’re getting their shot, but the thing is… They still haven’t decided on which two will be. Kyle says Cassidy & Roddy should go for the gold, but Roddy shouts, “KYYYLE~! Thank you.” Kyle says of course. But that’s cuz he’s got gold to chase for himself!
The same man that put Kyle on the shelf for months is the man that Kyle submitted twice, and will submit again. Jon Moxley, Continental Champion, when are we doing this? Willow says speaking of gold, she is still the TBS Champion. But she is also in the Owen Hart Cup. She won this tournament before, she’ll do it all over again, so that she can have all the gold for herself at All In: London. She knows she can, and she will! Then Conglomeration has it all in order? Cassidy says hold on, there’s something missing. They should do a Word of the Day. Why haven’t they done one in so long? Roddy shouts for “MAAARK~!” And yes, Mark Briscoe returns!
The Sussex County Chicken is all fired up, and he says the Word of the day is reunification! For Mark Briscoe is back with his boys and his girls, The Conglomeration! But he’ll put this plain and simple: Tommaso Ciampa! Next Wednesday, Briscoe’s after your ass, son! You hear him? But before that, Saturday Night Collision is in HIS hometown, Salisbury, Maryland! That’s just 4.4 miles from where Briscoe originated on this earth! They’re gonna conglomerate and it’s gonna be a a hell of a time! Are you ready!? Willow and Kyle are fired up, Briscoe goes wild, and the team heads out. Cassidy admits, that was a lot of yelling.
But while The Conglomeration is ready to go Double or Nothing, will they soon have even more gold in the collection? Or are these high and lofty a little too much even for them?
Six Woman Tag: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds VS The Triangle of Madness!
With the news of both the AEW Women’s World Championship Fatal 4 Way for Double or Nothing, and the Owen Hart Cup brackets, this trios match is about much more than just settling scores! Will the Shining Samurai be just as sharp as Jamie Hayter going into that title match? Or will Thekla, Skye Blue & Julia Hart continue to bring them down by any means necessary?
The trios sort out and Jamie steps up against Thekla as both a rematch from their 1v1 title match, and a preview of what’s to come in the next. They circle, but then Skye CLOBBERS Jamie! Julia steps in, but so do Shida and Windsor! The Triangle throws hands on Shida & The Birds, then triple whip. But all three reverse, a BOOT for Thekla, a DDT for Skye, and a BACKBREAKER for Julia! The fans cheer as The Triangle bails out! Shida goes out to keep after Skye while Windsor goes after Julia. Jamie gets Thekla back in the ring while Shida and Windsor have the Sisters of Sin in the corners of the barriers. The fans cheer as they all rain down fists!

Jamie stomps Thekla, Windsor SLAMS Julia off barriers, and Jamie stomps a mudhole in the corner. The ref counts, Jamie lets off, but Skye and Windsor meet while tightrope walking the barriers! Skye and Windsor trade shots, they wobble a bit, then Skye DECKS Windsor! Skye keeps from falling into the crowd, but Jamie gets her! Windsor joins in and the Birds double gorilla press, SNAKE EYES off the apron! The fans fire up, but Thekla is up top! SUPER CROSSBODY onto The Birds!
The fans fire up again and Thekla is feeling it while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Thekla stomps Windsor, CLUBS Jamie, then helps Skye. But Shida runs up, only for Thekla to ELBOW her down! The Triangle has control again, they ROCK Jamie and Shida and Windsor, then send them all to the desk. The Triangle CHOP again and again and again! Then they wind up, but feint chops to SMACK all three off the apron! The Triangle soaks up the cheers and jeers before putting Jamie back in the ring.

Thekla SMACKS Shida, then she dodges a boot to DECK Shida! Thekla talks trash on Shida, then drags her up to tag in Julia.
Julia tags Skye, then tag back to Thekla. The Sisters of Sin hit the DOUBLE GOURD BUSTER and DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Thekla hits the bridge, and she aims for the SPIDER SPEAR! Cover, but The Birds CLOBBER The Sisters of Sin onto it! The fans fire up a Windsor DECKS Skye and Jamie HEADBUTTS Julia! The Birds drag Shida to safety, Windsor tags in, and she CLOBBERS Thekla! Windsor CLUBS away, then fires the fans up. Jamie steps in, BOOT RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP COMBO! Basement LARIAT! And then Windsor lifts! Jamie runs up, but Skye trips Jamie! The fans boo but Skye sends Jamie into steel steps!
Thekla sends Windsor into buckles! Tag to Julia before Shida runs up, TAMASHII KNEE on Thekla! Skye SUPERKICKS Shida! Jamie is back to clinch and HAYTBREAKER! Julia runs up, slips around, SOLE FOOD! Julia kips up, but Windsor is there to whip Julia to ropes! Skye tags in before the SPINEBUSTER! Skye SUPERKICKS Windsor, then brings her up! Skye hops on, CODE- NO, Windsor pops free! Skye SUPERKICKS again, but Windsor HEADBUTTS! The fans fire up as Jamie joins in again, and they DOUBLE LARIAT SANDWICH! Then they set Skye up, and Jamie says let’s try this again!
Jamie runs the ropes, but Thekla slides in, BELT SHOT on Jamie!! No question that the ref saw that! The Triangle is disqualified!
Winners: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds, by disqualification
The Toxic Spider doesn’t care about this win, she just wants to do damage! Skye gets Windsor in a DRAGON SLEEPER! The ref stops Thekla from sing the title belt again, so Thekla just takes off her own belt! And she LASHES Windsor while Skye holds her down! More refs rush out here, but Julia MISTS the newbie in the face! Julia stomps away on Jamie, not caring about fines or consequences, either! The fans boo, and Shida is bailing on the Birds? Shida cares more about her chances in that Fatal 4 Way than anything else. But then Willow, Mina, and even Thunder Rosa rush out here! They chase The Triangle off with belts of their own!
The fans cheer as The Babe, the Fighting Gravure Idol & La Mera Mera save the day. But will Jamie make sure Thekla and Shida pay for this at Double or Nothing?
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita!
They say “card subject to change,” and that is true even for the best in the world. Kazuchika Okada’s real family takes priority, but his Don Callis Family brother was more than happy to step up for this opportunity. Will The Alpha already have two belts by the time he and The Rainmaker battle over the International Championship? Or will Darby truly be relentless in his pursuit of being the best fighting champion in AEW history?
The introductions are made, THE belt is raised, and we see who goes to Double or Nothing on top!
Callis joins commentary to say that while Darby’s been breaking his own body, Konosuke has perfected “rejuvenation training,” aka relaxing on a beach and sipping sake! The bell rings, and Darby SHOTGUNS Konosuke out! Then Darby DIVES, but Konosuke catches him! Konosuke POSTS Darby, then THROWS him into railing! Konosuke THROWS Darby into the ring, the fans fire up for both guys, and Konosuke hurries to BOOT Darby off the apron! Darby falls in front of commentary but Konosuke gets him right back in the ring. Cover, ONE!! The fans rally as Darby shows his grit, but Konosuke snarls.
Konosuke drags Darby up, Darby fires forearms, but the ALPHA ELBOW knocks Darby down! The fans fire up while Konosuke looms over Darby. Konosuke stands Darby up, and THROWS him into a corner! Darby bounces off the buckles and is bleeding from the mouth already! Konosuke stands Darby up, hoists him up top, then he climbs up after him. But Darby BITES Konosuke, CLUBS him down, and leaps for a CROSSBODY, but he bounces off Konosuke! The fans fire up again as Konosuke whips Darby for a BACKDROP! Darby got serious hangtime there, and he flounders out of the ring. Darby coughs and sputters but the fans rally up.
Konosuke goes out after Darby but Darby SMACKS him! Konosuke KNEES low, KNEES him again and again and again! Konosuke KNEES Darby against the barriers, then refreshes the count. Konosuke whips Darby hard into railing! Darby sputters as he leans against the railing, but Konosuke positions the steel steps. Konosuke then fetches Darby, lines up a shot, but Darby fights the suplex! Darby CLAWS Konosuke’s back, then fires a shot. Konosuke DECKS Darby in return! Darby slumps against the steps, Konosuke runs up, but Darby dodges! Konosuke’s knees hit the steps and he tumbles over! Darby then runs up the steps to SHOTGUN Konosuke down!
The fans fire up while both men are down on the floor! Konosuke checks his knee before he crawls around, and Darby gets in the ring so he can build speed! Darby DIVES! Direct hit on Konosuke but Darby’s the one who hits the desk! The fans fire up while both men are down again, but Darby rises up to get Konosuke on the apron! Darby fires forearms, then goes up a corner! COFFIN- NO, Konosuke catches him for a SUPER BLUE THUNDER BOMB to the floor!! The fans go nuts again and Callis says that’s the end of Darby Allin, but Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref hurries to check Darby but Callis tells Doc Sampson to call it. Darby is somehow still in this, so Konosuke storms his way over. Konosuke drags Darby up, puts him in the ring, then paces around him. Konosuke runs the ropes to LARIAT! Darby flips inside-out, Konosuke covers him, TWO!! Darby still has fight inside but he’s also dazed. Konosuke clamps onto Darby with a chinlock and squeezes tight. Darby endures, even as Konosuke leans on him with his much-taller frame. Darby reaches out, fights around, and rises up, only for Konosuke to CANADIAN RACK BOMB! Darby sputters all over again while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Konosuke sits back as he watches Darby crawl to the apron. Konosuke storms his way over, but Darby RAMS low! Slingshot sunset flip, but Konosuke rolls through! Only for Darby to kick the legs out! Darby catches Konosuke to a GUILLOTINE! Konosuke endures the squeeze, fights up to his feet, and he powers out to THROW Darby! Darby lands out, fires shots, and RAMS low! Darby then hops on, but Konosuke stops Code Red! Konosuke swings Darby around, tucks him in, BASTARD DRIVER! And WHEELBARROW GERMAN! The fans fire up and Callis says that’s true power! Darby sputters again and Konosuke vows to end this.
Konosuke runs corner to corner, HELLUVA KICK!! Then he hoists Darby up top, climbs up after him, and goes to the very top! The fans freak out already for the SUPER DUPER GERMAN SUPLEX!! Bridging cover, TWO!!! Callis is freaking out as much as the fans, and he protests the count! Konosuke is furious, but he aims for the WAGAMAMA KNEE!!! Cover, TWO?!?! Darby survives by nanoseconds, and Konosuke is beside himself! “This is Awesome!” but now CLØN rushes out here! He distracts the ref, and Callis hurries to take the Dynamite Diamond Ring off his finger to put it in Konosuke’s hands! Konosuke thinks about it, but The Alpha has honor!
The fans cheer as Konosuke wants to do this his way! But then Darby runs up, cradles, TWO!! Konosuke escapes, ALPHA ELBOW!! Darby is down, dazed, but still moving! Konosuke drags Darby up again, goes back to the corner and back to the top rope. The fans hope these two “FIGHT FOREVER!” but it has to end somehow! Darby fights against the lift with headlock punches! Then he hops on, SUPER CODE RED!! Konosuke staggers up, Darby leg scissors, steps through, LAST SUPPER!! TWO?!?! Konosuke escapes again, then bails out! So Darby just goes up top! SUPER COFFIN DROP!! Direct hit and both men are down again!
The fans are thunderous as Konosuke and Darby stir. A ring count climbs, Callis complains that some people just gotta follow directions and run the play! Coach Callis pulled Konosuke outta obscurity, Konosuke would do anything! Now he’s got some gold, some fame, and gets a mind of his own! Callis complaining aside, the ring count is climbing! Darby drags himself in at 9, but Konosuke YANKS him back out! That refreshes the count, and Konosuke vows to end this for real now. Konosuke points to the steel steps, and he drags Darby up onto them with a deadlift RAGING- NO, Darby knees Konosuke, turns things around, and FULL METAL SCORPION DEATH DROP!!!
The fans go nuts again while Konosuke writhes! Konosuke flops off the steps, Darby crawls into the ring, and Darby just climbs the corner again! SUPER DUPER COFFIN DROP!!! Konosuke might be unconscious! Darby still hauls Konosuke into the ring, pushes him to a cover, TWO?!?!? Konosuke survives and Darby is furious! But Darby just reloads, COFFIN DROP but onto knees!!! Ghost pin, TWO!!! Darby escapes but the WAGAMAMA KNEE finds him!! Konosuke hauls Darby up, but Darby pops free! Trip, step through, and SCORPION DEATH LOCK!!! Konosuke endures, reaches out, but Darby sits deep!!
Callis says don’t even think about it! Konosuke almost does, but he bites his own thumb to ignore the pain in his back! Konosuke reaches out, crawls his way forward, and he fights to the ROPEBREAK!!! But Darby is right up top! COFFION DROP on the back!! Then Darby goes right back up, COFFIN DROP again!!! Cover, DARBY WINS!!
Winner: Darby Allin, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
Callis is steaming, but Darby overcomes Konosuke to avenge that loss in the Continental Classic! But it also took so much out of him just to do it! Darby still asks for a mic and one is brought to him. Darby sits up against the ropes, has them cut his music, and he tells MJF to get his ass out here! There’s a contract MJF needs to sign! The ring crew hurries to bring in a table and some chairs for that very contract signing, and MJF makes his entrance. MJF reluctantly makes his way down the ramp, and both men meet at the table. Darby grins with blood still in hiss teeth, and he signs his part of the contract without hesitation, unlike MJF.
The fans already chant “BALD! BALD! BALD!” at MJF, and Darby pushes the contract to his side of the table. MJF grabs the pen, reaches out, but then steps away. MJF scratches his chin as he thinks on this, and the fans just chant, “BALD! BALD! BALD!” again. MJF takes a mic to say he’ll explain something to Darby, looking like he has rabies. But see, MJF is happy for Darby, he hopes Darby’s had fun holding MJF’s AEW World Championship. The fans boo that, but MJF says deep down, there is a small part of him, like the size of a North Carolinian p*nis small. That small part of MJF feels bad for Darby, because he’ll never hold this again!
Darby’s got about a good a chance of holding this title as Hangman Adam Page does again. MJF says guys like Darby are a dime a dozen, here today and gone tomorrow, stuntmen who burn the candle at both ends. In this life, people like all these fans here like to pretend that life is about making friends and family and children. The only thing that matters in life is your legacy. And Darby’s legacy will be that of the kid who had his 15 minutes of fame. They’ll pretend like Darby made a lasting impact, but the fact of the matter is, he hasn’t. He hasn’t! They’ll know deep down that Darby Allin was just a little pr*ck who got lucky.
They’ll know that Darby was too reckless and stupid to stay on top. And after May 24th, Double or Nothing, in that sh*thole of Queens, New York, y’know what MJF’s legacy will be? He’ll go down as the guy who became a THREE-TIME World Champion at just 30 years of age, unprecedented in this sport. And MJF will go down, when it’s all said and done, as the Greatest of All Time! THAT is the difference between them! Darby Allin brags about climbing a mountaintop. But when it comes to professional wrestling, Maxwell Jacob Friedman IS the mountaintop! The fans boo but MJF soaks it up. Darby tells MJF to SHUT UP!
Only someone like MJF who is so vain would think that the number one most important thing in this world is his legacy. Darby doesn’t care about legacy, he cares about living in the moment! And in this moment, Darby just wants MJF to sign the contract. Then at Double or Nothing, Darby makes Maxwell Jacob Friedman a BALLD HEADED B*TCH!! MJF frowns but the fans cheer that! MJF grabs the pen again, and with no choice, he signs on the dotted line! Then he TACKLES Darby! The fans boo as MJF beats up Darby after the war he went through with Konosuke! MJF CHUCKS an armchair outta the ring, FLIPS the table, then picks up his Dynamite Diamond Ring.
MJF puts the ring on his finger like always, then winds up to DECK Darby!! The fans boo but MJF just soaks it all up. MJF throws off his jacket, picks up the belt, and he stands over Darby with it. But then MJF isn’t done with Darby, he puts Darby on the top rope! MJF climbs up to join him, and drags Darby into position! But wait! Kevin Knight runs out here to chase MJF off! The Jet still owes The Scumbag a receipt, but it seems we’ll all have to wait on that. Will MJF still take back the title at Double or Nothing? Or will Darby keep the belt and take MJF’s dignity?
My Thoughts:
An awesome episode for Dynamite as things heat up towards Double or Nothing. Awesome 10 Man Tag to open, great win for the Faces, not that it added much to FTR VS C&C. Good promo from Jericho to look back on Stadium Stampede and hype up this year’s match. Good promo from The Demand with Davis and The Dogs, and I suppose this maximizes the feuds as well as the alliances throughout the locker room. Who knows who wins but the match will still be awesome, just as the original was. Good promo from Conglomeration, too, Cassidy & Roddy going after FTR while Kyle VS Moxley happens on the side, that’s great stuff.
Speaking of Moxley, great promo from him and Ospreay. Moxley’s semi-turn has really brought out his sage philosophical side. Great match from Ospreay VS Ace, and while Ospreay could always bring out his aggression, seeing him use more technical wrestling and even winning with a submission is good stuff. Good promo from Joe, and I liked Death Riders backing Ospreay up. Very good Owen Hart Cup brackets this year, Joe VS Ospreay is a great choice given this story, but I would think Ospreay wins that one. Good promo from Jack Perry to call out Davis, and I suppose Jack can win in the Owen Cup to then move on from the National title.
Great seeing Brian Cage back, he gave Knight an awesome match, but with JetSpeed wanting to go on a Two Man Power Trip, it makes sense Kevin won out. Same for Bailey beating Westbrook, even though Westbrook maybe went too hard on his own acrobatic escape. Great stuff in the Six Woman Tag, and I appreciate Shida didn’t ditch until after the match. Willow, Mina & Rosa might get their own Six Woman Tag with Triangle of Madness after that interaction, but also can’t wait to see if Willow can go back-to-back as Queen of Harts. For that matter, I personally would love to see Athena use the Owen Cup to move on from being ROH Women’s World Champion, but that depends on how Supercard of Honor goes this Friday.
And of course, another wild instant classic from Darby as he overcomes Takeshita. I knew the diamond ring would come into play with that reverse effect, good way of protecting Takeshita in the loss. Good stuff with MJF tonight, too, such as the opening segment’s parade of bald men to send the message to MJF. That was also a unique contract signing segment in that it came together so quickly after the main event match. Good stuff from MJF as always, and of course he attacks Darby. I feel like either Knight should not have made the save, or both parts of JetSpeed should’ve made the save. It just seems odd that only Knight cared about saving Darby. The closing moment was much better when it was MJF standing over Darby with the belt.
My Score: 9/10
