The Blackpool Combat Club speaks.
The Bastard says, “War is upon us. It’s time to choose sides. But you see, we know you. We know you’re not like the rest of them: A zoo creature, somebody bought to be paraded around. No, you’re more than that. You’re not a fluffy, cute animal, a creature, no. You’re a lion. So stop acting like you haven’t already chosen.” The Swiss Superman says, “I’m still the same guy. So is Mox. I guess I don’t understand what the problem is. If you wanna talk to me, you know where to find me. This is your home. We still have big plans for you, Wheeler.” The Problem steps up and speaks in Moldovan, but it’s clearly her telling Wheeler to figure it out.
The Maniac finally turns around to say, “I prayed every night you wouldn’t win the AEW World Championship, Bryan, but you did. So here we are. I’m gonna have that belt one way or another. There will be casualties. You’re gonna get a gift. A gift from the universe, a gift from me, not a lot of people get. I’m giving you the opportunity to go out on your shield, to die a warrior’s death, on your home soil. You will be buried in your backyard, peacefully, beautifully. Fate’s not gonna put a better offer on the table than that, man. On October 12th, when I officially relieve you of duty, I’m sending Daddy home for good.”
The BCC has issued their ultimatums to The Decoder and the American Dragon, will either of them heed the warning?
AEW International Championship: Will Ospreay VS Ricochet!
It has been a long time since The Aerial Assassin and The One & Only have faced off in the ring. Both men have held gold all around the world, but that’s not even what this battle is about. Ricochet wants to show us what he can really do, and Ospreay hopes he remembers how. Who will stand tall as AEW continues into a new chapter?
But as Ospreay prepares backstage with Kyle Fletcher’s help, Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita step in. Callis says they need to talk about last week, but he wishes Ospreay the best of luck. Callis says the Family has to get going, they have a flight to catch. Ospreay is now without his good friend, but will this be more about his mental state? Ospreay makes his entrance and the introductions are made. The belt is raised, and we see if this anniversary show will be #OuttaThisWorld!
The bell rings and the fans are losing their minds already. Ricochet and Ospreay tie up, go around, and Ospreay puts Ricochet on ropes. Pittsburgh already declares, “This is Awesome!” as the two let off slowly. Ospreay takes a swing, but Ricochet dodges to hit a headlock takeover.

Mercedes Mone speaks.
The AEW TBS & NJPW Strong Women’s Champion is with her Brickhouse, Kamille, as well as Renee Paquette. Renee holds the mic so Mone can hold both her titles while saying, “Pittsbuuuuuuurgh~! Please say hello to your C E O.” Renee says tonight, we celebrate five years- Yes, and what a beautiful five years! Mone is so blessed to have played even just a small part of AEW Dynamite history. That is why she has put together a very special video package of Dynamite’s best moments. “Hit it, Money Mike.”
The video is played up, and if you can’t guess, it is all Mone’s moments in AEW. Her debut at Big Business in Boston, her winning the TBS Championship, and just winning in general. Mone smiles and asks if that was an amazing video. AEW’s best moments are all about her, because AEW is where the money resides, and AEW’s future is so bright, because Mone Changes Everything. And MVP steps in to say yes it does! He loves Big Business. Please, take his card, maybe they can talk. MVP heads out, will The CEO consider his offer?
Backstage interview with Austin & Colten Gunn.
Renee is now with The Gunns and brings up Juice Robinson facing Hangman Page 1v1 tonight. It was just last week, Grand Slam Collision, that Hangman tried to literally hang Juice. What can we expect tonight? Austin says Renee, and better yet, Pittsburgh, tonight, the Juice is loose! And- HANGMAN CLOBBERS AUSTIN FROM BEHIND! And then he brawls with Colten! Hangman sends Colten through a door, and then storms off. The Black Hat has left the Collision Cowboys writhing, will he cross off Juice later tonight?
“Big Bill” Morrissey is in the ring.
The Redwood has a mic to say, “Ladies and gentlemen, five years of AEW Dynamite!” The fans cheer that, but Bill wants us to remember. “As The Learning Tree always says, it is not about the destination, it is about who we become as people along the way.” Uh, sure… Bill says we can all agree that over the past 1,825 days, we have all become better people, all thanks to one man: The Learning Tree, Chris Jericho! The fans boo as Jericho makes his entrance, “The Bad Apple” Bryan Keith right behind him. They go to the ring, Jericho waves and says, “Hi, guys~! Congratulations on five years of Dynamite.
“And congratulations to the brand new television deal that AEW just signed. We made a lot of experts look like real idiots, hahahaha.” The fans cheer that at least. But there wouldn’t even be a new TV deal, or an AEW, if not for Chris Jericho, so you can thank him for that. The fans boo again but Keith wants a “Thank You, Chris!” chant. Say it, dammit! The fans do chant, “Thank You, Chris! Thank You, Chris!” Jericho thanks them, and says not only is this the fifth anniversary of Dynamite, but it’s the 34th anniversary of Chris Jericho’s pro-wrestling debut! To think he’s gone from Alberta, Canada to right here in Philade- Oops.
Jericho corrects himself, it’s Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. But to also be an eight-time world champion is an unbelievable feeling. Right now, at Jericho’s stage in his career, he wasn’t quite as focused on winning titles as he is on nurturing The Branches, such as The Redwood and Bad Apple, and bringing as many young talents into the Jericho Vortex as possible, and of course getting as much TV time as he can. But over the past few weeks, Jericho had an epiphany. First, he headlined a sold out Arena Mexico, then he beat Mark Briscoe. So now, it is time Jericho brings a new Era of Jericho. No more Ocho, time for the Nueve!
So Mark Briscoe, Jericho is challenging you for the ROH World Championship, at WRESTLEDREAM! The fans are torn on that idea but Jericho asks if Mark accepts. Does he? Mark Briscoe makes his entrance! Flanked by The Conglomeration, The Sussex County Chicken makes his way down to the ring. Mark steps into the ring, grabs himself a mic, and he tells his boys to stand down, this is between him and Jericho. Jericho has his guys do the same, so it is just them in the ring. Mark tells Jericho that Papa Briscoe brought his sons up to behave like men. And to be a man is to not make excuses.
Mark could stand here and make excuses about how he had Jericho beat in New York City. Jericho was toast! He was fried chicken! The only way Jericho won on the ROH World Champion is because Big Bill snuck up on Mark, guzel’d him around the throat, and choke slammed him through a table so Jericho could roll his limp ass onto Mark. The fans cheer that! Mark says he could say that, but he won’t use the excuse because it was Tornado Tag rules. The choke slam was as legal as a wristlock. Jericho pinned Mark in New York, 1-2-3, in the middle of that ring. And y’know what else? Behaving like a man entails that you call it like it is. Call a spade a spade.
And here we are on Jericho’s 34th anniversary, so Mark will call Jericho what he is: Chris BAH GAWD Jericho has, over the past four decades, been one of the most influential and finest pro-wrestlers on the planet. Fans do cheer that. And Mark will tell you, that works out good for him that Jericho pinned him. Logically speaking, Jericho should get the title match. Because Mark would love to put that notch in his belt, if you know what he means! See, it is also very coincidental that the word of the day is, “consequential.” Because consequentially speaking, now Mark will get to put a legendary head on his wall! Because when Mark beats Jericho at WrestleDream-
Whoa, whoa, hold on. That is a tall task. Mark wants to beat the Learning Tree? He wants to beat the legendary Chris Jericho? He doesn’t think Mark can. Mark can’t beat Jericho! Maybe Jay could have. The fans don’t like Jericho going there. “But everybody knows… You’ll never be as good as Jay was.” The fans boo more, and Mark UPPERCUTS Jericho! The fans fire up now, but Jericho has Bill & Keith stay back. Mark tells Jericho if he wants to go there, he better get his brother’s name out of his mouth. At WrestleDream, Jericho gets a Briscoe style ass whooping! Mark accepts the challenge, and THAT is consequential!
The fans fire up as in just 10 days, we see Mark Briscoe VS Chris Jericho 1v1! Will The Sussex County Chicken not just cut down The Learning Tree, but burn it to ashes?
BREAKING NEWS for Rampage!
With Briscoe VS Jericho set, there will also be further redemption for The Conglomeration after last week’s Collision. Orange Cassidy & Kyle O’Reilly take on Big Bill & Bryan Keith 2v2! Will Freshly Squeezed & The Violent Artist cut down The Branches before worrying about The Learning Tree?
Darby Allin speaks.
The Relentless One sits among junked cars, and he says, “I was 19 years old, I used to ride this metro bus, The 150, from Kent Station to Seattle. I used to ride it all the time, just daydreaming. This one night, I was in the back of the bus, and I felt something hit my head. And I turned around and I saw these three guys laughing at me. And it just donned on me that they were taking turns spitting at me. And I turned around and I just tried to mind my own business. There was three of them and one of me. And it was killing me inside that I wasn’t doing anything about it. And then I felt it again.
“And finally, I just turned around, and I got right up in the guy’s face, and he said, ‘What’re you gonna do about it, ya little b*tch?’ And I noticed he was holding up this switchblade. And I looked at him and I said, ‘Well, it looks like I’m getting stabbed tonight.’ I lunged toward him, and it didn’t take long for everybody on the bus to break up the fight. But it felt so good. It felt so good to actually do something about it. Weeks ago, when Jon Moxley said I wasn’t ready to be the face of AEW, all I could see is those three guys in the back of the bus. I wasn’t just gonna lay down and do nothing. I would rather get stabbed.
“You live by the sword, you die by the sword. I put everything on the line against Moxley, I was so fixated on proving him wrong. That night, it was supposed to be me and Bryan going on to WrestleDream. I keep saying that I’m ready to be the face of company, and I think people are starting to lose faith in me. The scary part about it is, I’m starting to lose faith in myself. But what else am I supposed to do? What else can I do except fight? I am going to be at Tacoma Dome, October 12th, at WrestleDream. Anybody in the AEW locker room, I’m putting out an Open Challenge. Anybody wants to build their name off of Darby Allin, step right up.”
Darby smashes a brick against a car, and he shouts he has nothing left to lose! October 12th, WrestleDream, Open Challenge. Step up. Darby is feeling desperate, but will that desperation be what he needs to reach that next level?
AEW shares news about Taz.
Earlier today, as the former Suplex Machine made his arrival, he was assaulted by unknown assailants in the parking lot. Taz was checked out by medics, referred back to his physician in New York, so he is returning home at this time. AEW wishes Taz a speedy recovery, and hopes to find out who attacked him and why.
Hangman Page VS Juice Robinson!
Speaking of new levels, the anger and rage has been increasing for this Black Hat Cowboy, and it doesn’t look to be stopping. Hangman won the Lumberjack Strap Match, then went after Rock Hard Robinson for the lashes he delivered. Will Hangman ever stop lashing out against the AEW roster? Or will Juice have to beat him to a pulp first?
Well speaking of, Hangman rushes Juice during his entrance! They brawl on the ramp, up to the stage, and then Hangman CLUBS Juice down. Hangman roars, the fans are torn, but Juice knees Hangman low! Juice snapmares and KICKS Hangman, then brings out a strap! Juice LASHES Hangman with it! Hangman writhes and Juice grins as he storms back up. Hangman slips down off the stage, but Juice LEAPS, into a body shot! Hangman tells the ref to shut up, and he LASHES Juice now! Hangman stalks Juice around the back to LASH him again! Hangman tosses the strap to the fans, free souvenir!

Juice borrows a drink form a fan to SPLASH Hangman with it! Hangman sputters, and Juice HEADBUTTS him! Juice RIPS a “Hangman is FIRE” sign, then ROCKS Hangman. Then Juice borrows a fan’s popcorn to CLOBBER Hangman with it! The fans fire up as things return to ground level, and Hangman goes to ringside. Juice is munching some popcorn now, and then puts Hangman in the ring. The bell finally sounds to make this a match, and Juice takes off his own belt! He says time to hang the Hangman! Juice CHOKES Hangman with the belt, the ref counts, and Juice stops at 4. Hangman gets the belt away, and then he kicks low!
Hangman bumps Juice off buckles, stomps a mudhole, but the ref counts. Hangman lets off, soaks up the cheers and jeers, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Hangman stalks Juice to ropes, CHOPS him, then whips corner to corner. Juice reverses, and he FLAPJACKS Hangman down! Juice then hurries to clinch and RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP!

PROGRAMMING NOTE for Dynamite!
Next week will be a very special Title Tuesday edition of Dynamite! Tuesday night will be golden starting 9 PM Eastern, so make sure your DVRs catch it!
Renee Paquette is in the parking lot.
Renee says we continue to celebrate the five year anniversary of Dynamite, and she is waiting on an AEW original, Jack Perry. The Scapegoat bus pulls up, and he steps out. But then Katsuyori Shibata steps in! And with text to voice, Shibata “says,” “You and me, the TNT Championship, WrestleDream.” Perry says he’ll think about it. The Scapegoat leaves, but then he sucker punches Shibata! Then he CLUBS Shibata, RAMS him into the front of the bus, and says, “I accept!” The Scapegoat punks out The Wrestler, but will he come to regret that?
Bryan Danielson speaks.
“All day long, I’ve had one sentence running through my head: F Jon Moxley. But then I realized, Mox, that no matter how bad you want it to be, this isn’t about you. This isn’t your world championship. Hell, this isn’t even MY world championship! This is AEW’s World Championship! FIVE YEARS! FIVE YEARS! And we’ve broken the entire system that wrestling was built on! This is where the best wrestle! And that is why I challenged Okada. Okada, me and you have wrestled twice. You’ve won one and I won one. You’ve broken my arm and fractured my orbital bone, but you have never broken my spirit.
“Tonight, we find out who’s the best! Your title’s only on the line for the first 20 minutes, but every single minute of this match, my title’s on the line, and my career’s on the line! And I wouldn’t want it any other way. AEW, this is for you.” The American Dragon is all fired up, but will he be able to set fire to the Rainmaker?
AEW wants to help the victims of Hurricane Helene.
AEW and Warner Brothers Discovery team up with American Red Cross, Save The Children and The World Central Kitchen. To donate, text “HELENE” to 707070.

Backstage interview with Hook.
Renee is with the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil and asks him about the attack on his dad, Taz. Hook is fuming, and he punches a wall. He says if someone starts s*it with his family, he will find them and take ’em out! Who would be foolish enough to #SendHook into a rage?
Christian Cage speaks.
“Pittsburgh, sit down and shut your mouths while I conduct my business. And the business at hand is the five year anniversary of Dynamite. And if all of you were in awe of everything I’ve accomplished in the first five years, you haven’t seen anything yet. Because I am the Face of TBS now and forever. I am the reigning, defending, undisputed next AEW World Champion. I am the Patriarch, I am your Father Figure. And soon enough, I will have it all, hook, line and sinker.” Captain Charisma has spoken, but will he look to strike during tonight’s main event? Or will he wait to ruin everyone’s WrestleDream?
Backstage interview with Mariah May.
Renee is now with The Glamour, and says it was quite the “tumultuous” Grand Slam last week for her. Mariah successfully defended the AEW Women’s World Championship against Yuka Sakazaki, only to have Willow Nightingale to come to Yuka’s defense after. And then, the return of Mina Shirakawa was short as she then returned to Japan to team with Toni- Mariah says Willow is the living definition of “Failing up.” How many titles does Willow get to lose? Willow lost the TBS Championship, gets into the Owen Hart Cup. Willow loses the tournament to Mariah, so she gets the CMLL Women’s title.
Willow then loses the CMLL Women’s title, and now she’s best friends with Yuka and just syphons herself a world title shot? Wow! Masterful plan, Willow! That’s shady. Just look at her, smiling all the time, trying to hide how pathetic she really is! But speaking of Willow, she storms in, confronting Mariah on all that trash. Mariah’s the shady b*tch here! These two start arguing, and Mariah says shut up! Mariah SLAPS Willow! Willow SLAPS back! Security rushes in, as does Christopher Daniels, and these two are separated. The Fallen Angel has Mariah taken away and tells Willow to calm down. But will the Babe with the Power take out The Glamour the first chance she gets?
Private Party VS The Iron Savages w/ Jacked Jameson!
While Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy could not win the AEW World Trios Championships with the help of their amigo, Komander, they’re not going to give up now. A new theme song for a new attitude, will the party start to turn up? Or will they be forced to sip sauce and live hoss with Bulky Bronson & Beefcake Boulder?
The teams sort out, and Zay runs up on Bronson to fire hands! The fans rally, Bronson shoves Zay, but Zay bobs ‘n’ weaves. Zay BOOTS Bronson, DROPKICKS him, and Bronson staggers. Quen joins in to DOUBLE DROPKICK! Bronson falls, but Boulder runs in! Private Party dodges to DOUBLE DROPKICK! Boulder stays up and goes wild! Boulder runs up but Private Party DUMPS him out! Boulder staggers, Quen FLIES! Down goes Boulder at the ramp! Stokely Hathaway is watching this and seems to like what he sees. Bronson reels Zay in, back suplexes, but Zay lands out! Zay ducks ‘n’ dodges, DROPKICKS, and Bronson goes to a corner.
Zay kips up, fires up, and the fans are with him! Zay tags Quen, and then Zay runs up. Bronson BOOTS Zay, then goes up the corner, but Quen runs up! GIN & JUICE!! A supersized serving, Quen covers, Private Party wins!
Winners: Private Party, by pinfall
From the upset win on the very first AEW Dynamite to this shockingly fast win here tonight, Private Party’s new attitude is paying off! Zay gets a mic to get something off his chest. What’s up, Pittsburgh? But at the beginning of this year, these two walked in and said “New Year, New Champs,” and Zay swears to God, they meant every word! He doesn’t care if his hand’s bashed or if his shoulder’s messed up. Quen doesn’t care if his shoulder is just back from injury, Private Party WILL BE AEW World Tag Team Champions! Zay hopes The Young Bucks are listening. Private Party beat them once, and they promise they can do it again!
In fact, Zay is feeling froggy. Is Quen feeling froggy? Quen says yeah, he’s feeling it! They’re ready to jump! Young Bucks, FOOLS, why not do this right here and now?! The fans fire up, and here come the EVPs! Matthew & Nicholas Jackson appear from center stage, and Nick says, “Listen. You can’t have an anniversary show without the two people who built this damn company, your EVPs, Matthew & Nicholas Jackson!” Matt takes the mic to tell Private Party that they seem super confident. Matt has an idea. He heard there is a substantial overrun planned for tonight, so they have time for this particular idea.
How about The Bucks test that confidence? Why not put the tag titles on the line against Private Party, RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, IN PITTSBURGH!? The fans love that idea! The Bucks head down the ramp, and Matt wants to make sure there’s still a ref. Oh, wait, no, The Bucks have “limited dates,” so they’re not wasting one on a crap town like Pittsburgh. The fans boo as The Bucks go back up the ramp. The Bucks “thank” everyone, but then Jack Perry attacks Private Party! The fans boo, but n ow it turns into a 3v2 as The Bucks DO get in the ring! But wait! Here comes Shibata! The Wrestler isn’t done with Perry!
The fans fire up as Shibata storms into the ring, but The Elite goes running! Shibata dares Perry to get in, but here comes Christopher Daniels! He says hey, Private Party has been a thorn in the sides of The Bucks since the very beginning of Dynamite, and Daniels for one would love to see Private Party piss The Bucks off. So here’s an idea! SIX MAN TAG: Private Party & Shibata VS The Elite, Friday Night Rampage here in Pittsburgh!! The Elite is pissed, but Daniels’ Interim EVP powers force their hand! Will Shibata be partying with Quen & Zay after they take it to The Elite?
Backstage interview with MVP.
Renee is with Montel Vontavius Porter, officially welcomes him to AEW, and understands he has a big announcement. MVP says yes, he does have an announcement, and what better occasion than the five-year anniversary of Dynamite. He’d like to take this moment to introduce to all of us- Wait, Prince Nana steps in. And he says last week, MVP was talking real spicy about him and Swerve. And another thing! Nana sees a lot of people are walking around here forgetting something. They’re forgetting that Nana used to be a wrestler himself! And yeah, he’ll lace up his boots right here in Pittsburgh just for MVP!
MVP says that sounds like a complaint. MVP doesn’t deal with complaints. But uh, he does. Who? SHELTON BENJAMIN!? MVP formally introduces AEW to his business partner, and the President of the Complaints Department, Mr. Shelton Benjamin. Nana is stunned, and Shelton says nice to meet you. He then takes Nana’s mug and drinks the coffee. Shelton says that’s pretty good. Nana is beside himself, but is he about to step into the ring with the Gold Standard?
AEW World VS AEW Continental Championships: Bryan Danielson VS Kazuchika Okada!
The American Dragon said it himself that he and The Rainmaker are 1-1, and why not make the tiebreaker part of the Dynamite anniversary? But as Bryan also said, this is only a double title match for the first 20 minutes. Can Bryan end this quickly to then bring two titles to Tacoma? Or will Okada wait out that first period to then strike and completely change AEW WrestleDream?
The introductions are made, both belts are raised, and we see who stands tall to end this historic night!
The bell rings and we’re on the clock. The fans chant “YES! YES! YES!” with literally just one guy going “NO! NO! NO!” Okada and Bryan stare down, then slowly approach. The fans fire up more, and then they back up. The fans get even more fired up, and the two circle. They feel things out, tie up, and Okada powers Bryan back a step. Bryan pushes Okada back, the fans duel, and the two go back and forth. Okada powers Bryan to a corner, the ref counts, and Okada lets off slowly. Bryan turns things around, the ref reprimands and counts, and Bryan lets off cleanly. The fans cheer and the two reset.
Bryan and Okada circle again, feel out a knuckle lock, and they tie up. They go shoulder to shoulder, push each other in a “Test of Wills” as Bryan would put it, and Okada slips around to waistlock. Bryan wrenches out, wristlocks, but Okada rolls, trips Bryan, and has a toehold. Bryan goes for the ARMBAR, but Okada blocks. Bryan shifts to a short arm scissor, but Okada fights up.

But Okada headscissors! Bryan kips free, but now Okada hits a headlock takeover.
Bryan headscissors, Okada kips free, and it’s a standoff! The fans fire up again, but as Bryan steps forward, Okada backs up into ropes. The ref has Bryan stay back, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Bryan waits on Okada, and Okada takes his time leaving the ropes. Okada dares Bryan to try something, but then he backs off to ropes again. The ref reprimands Okada for stalling but Okada says okay, hold on. Okada steps back in, circles with Bryan, only for Okada to again back away to ropes. Bryan is annoyed, but he calls Okada out. Okada steps back in, circles with Bryan, and they tie up. Bryan headlocks, shifts around, hammerlocks, then headlocks. Okada hammerlocks but Bryan drop toeholds. Bryan waistlocks but Okada goes to the ROPEBREAK! Bryan lets off and Okada bails out. Okada claims hair pulling as he paces outside.
Bryan waits, and Okada steps to the apron. But Okada stays back as Bryan steps forward. Bryan does jumping jacks to taunt Okada. Okada steps in, they circle again, and knuckle lock. Okada rolls to wrench and wrangle Bryan, but Bryan slips around to wrench back. Bryan has the arm for an ELBOW BREAKER! Bryan keeps the wristlock but Okada snapmares. Bryan rolls through to hammerlock Okada on the mat. Okada sits up and shifts around, but Bryan wrenches for another ELBOW BREAKER! Bryan wristlocks, but Okada CLUBS, snapmares, and chinlocks. But Bryan slips out to have the hammerlock back, and Dynamite goes to break.
Dynamite returns and the fans chant “YES! YES! YES!” as Bryan waits on Okada. Okada and Bryan circle, feel things out, and they knuckle lock. Okada powers Bryan to the corner, lets off slowly, and then fakes the chop to pat Bryan. Bur then he ROCKS Bryan with sucker punch after sucker punch! The fans boo, the ref counts, and Okada lets off. Okada storms back up, but Bryan puts him on the apron! Bryan HAMMERS away with forearms! The ref counts, Bryan lets off, but Okada slips down. So Bryan WRECKS Okada with a dropkick! Bryan keeps moving, but Okada’s back! FLAPJACK! Okada grins while Bryan writhes.
Okada storms up on Bryan, drags him up, and turns him, for a NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Okada stays cool, the tape on Bryan’s neck and shoulders the clear target. Okada drags Bryan up, bumps him off buckles, and then stands him back up. Okada ELBOWS Bryan, ELBOWS him again, and then whips corner to corner. Okada runs up to ELBOW Bryan down! The fans are torn while Bryan clutches his neck. Okada taunts the fans, mocks the “YES!” chant, and then storms up on Bryan. Okada drags Bryan up, ROCKS him, and CLUBS him. Bryan UPPERCUTS, and UPPERCUTS, and then runs, but Okada scoops!

Bryan runs up, but Okada dodges the elbow! Okada puts Bryan up top to DROPKICK him down! The fans fire up as Bryan tumbles to the floor! Okada goes out, grabs a chair, but just leaves it on the floor before he whips Bryan hard into railing! Okada then brings Bryan back around, to whip into more railing!
The fans rally, Okada refreshes the ring count, and Okada runs up to BOOT Bryan over railing! The fans fire up and duel as Bryan flounders. Okada drags Bryan up, but Bryan whips Okada hard into railing! Bryan refreshes the ring count, and he drags Okada up to whip into more railing! And then DROPKICKS him against them!

Bryan hurries up the corner again, and he BLINDSIDE MISSILE DROPKICKS! Bryan kips up, the fans fire up, but we’re at 15 minutes! Bryan KICKS Okada, KICKS again, and again! And again! And again! “YES!

Bryan lets go, but he aims, BUSAIKU KNEE!! But Okada flops out of the ring!! The 20 minute mark is passed, Okada’s title is safe!
20 minutes elapsed, Okada retains the AEW Continental Championship

Bryan wants to beat Okada, so he whips Okada into railing! And runs up, but into a scoop! TOMBSTONE onto the chair!!

He blames them for distracting him just enough, and now he storms off with his Continental Championship. But wait, Claudio & Pac slither into the ring! The Swiss Superman & The Bastard drag Bryan to his feet, because here comes Moxley! Bryan tries to fight free but Pac & Claudio hold on tight. Moxley has a mic to say, “You think this is about me? Huh? Is that what you said? You think any of this is about me?! Let’s get something through your simple minded, blueberry pickin’ little brain!
“NONE OF THIS is about me! NONE OF THIS is what I wanted. I’m fighting for something much bigger than myself. Everything I’m gonna do is cuz I have to, cuz no one else will, no one else can. If any of this was about me, I’d have put you outta your misery years ago!” Moxley drops the mic, paces around, but here comes Yuta! Yuta runs off the entire BCC, with a hammer in his hand! The fans are fired up for Yuta as he dares someone to step in! So Moxley steps back in! Moxley and Yuta stare down, but is Yuta gonna take a hammer to Moxley?

Moxley doesn’t, so Bryan CLOBBERS Moxley! Claudio goes after Yuta, grabs the hammer, and Marina Shafir gets Moxley outta there while Claudio and Pac brawl with Bryan and Yuta! Yuta & Bryan turn the tables, and Claudio bails! Pac follows kind, and the fans fire up again! Yuta grabs a mic to tell Claudio & Pac, “I am sick and tired of the two of you treating me like a child. I’m not a child, I am my own man! I can make my own decisions, and I can fight my own fights. And speaking of fights, next week, Title Tuesday, if the two of you wanna get to Bryan Danielson, you’re gonna have to go through me, too.”
The fans fire up as Yuta drops the mic, but Bryan picks it up. Bryan says next week, Title Tuesday, Bryan & Yuta VS Claudio & Pac, what does everyone say? The fans say “YES! YES! YES!” and Tony Khan sends word that YES, it will happen! Will Bryan stand tall just days before WrestleDream? Or will the faction he helped create be his undoing?
My Thoughts:
An awesome Dynamite for not just to commemorate five YEARS of AEW, but to also hype up WrestleDream more. Though, the direction of a few stories are a little odd to me. It’s mostly the Don Callis Family story, as I thought Konosuke Takeshita was heading for the Continental Championship. But after an awesome match of Ospreay VS Ricochet, where we got all the hits, Konosuke has to “ruin” it all by going after Ospreay. I suppose Ospreay VS Konosuke was an inevitable match so why not do it, and it could be what makes Kyle Fletcher choose between Ospreay and Callis. Hopefully, he chooses Ospreay, but I suppose that depends on who is even Don Callis Family. Maybe Hobbs returns?
Speaking of returns, Jay White’s return was of course happening here, what with Hangman beating up the Gunns and then beating Juice. Great brawl that went up into the crowd and great match, but Hangman of course cheats to win. Great return for Jay White, but uh, what was the point of Darby Allin mentioning a switchblade in his story and Nigel having a line about a knife fight? Something about that felt like Jay White foreshadowing for Darby VS White, but now I’m thinking it’s Hangman VS White, and Darby is open to face just about anyone for WrestleDream. Not sure who it’ll be, but I’m sure it’ll be someone great.
Great match from Britt VS Serena, great win for Britt to get back in action again, but it was curious that Mariah was out there at all. If that’s foreshadowing that Britt will get back to the world title, a bit heavy handed and early for it. Mariah still has Willow, which we got a great promo out of the two of them, and then there’s also Mina Shirakawa. I suppose Britt can be thrown in to further stretch out this story of Mariah and Mina, so that there is more and more evidence of Mariah going down a dark path and Mina unable to tolerate that. But honestly, with how badly AEW has paced women’s division stories before, I kinda want Mariah VS Mina to happen sooner rather than later.
Very good promo from Mone with MVP, it feels like the “Hurt Syndicate” is going to expand into more than just the men’s division, something WWE really should’ve tried with the Hurt Business. Maybe The Elite should think to counter offer so that Mone is their female member, and that could be a fun story. Shelton Benjamin debuting in AEW is great, but I also love that Nana brought up his wrestling career in WCW given a classic image of Prince Nana has been circulating online. Though, I don’t see Nana facing Shelton. But hey, Hurt Syndicate picking on Nana would definitely motivate Swerve to accelerate his return, and Swerve VS Shelton could make a great WrestleDream match.
The return of TV Time with Chris Jericho was good stuff, because for one, Jericho took a jab at Eric Bischoff over Bischoff claiming the coming AEW WBD TV deal was BS. But also, it wasn’t just Jericho rambling on, he got to business calling out Mark Briscoe, and Mark Briscoe responded. I did not think Jericho was gonna bring up Jay Briscoe like that, but that does immediately add heat to this. I really hope Briscoe whoops Jericho, we do not need “The Nueve” nor do we need the return of “Ring of Jericho.” Plus, something needs to happen where Big Bill screws up, Jericho gets pissed, there’s the falling out they teased weeks ago.
Very good promo from Christian Cage just to keep his cash-in on our minds. I feel like something has to again go screwy so that Christian can’t snipe the title from Bryan or Moxley, especially with this story with Kip Sabian still needing to be settled. And we’re getting quite a curious story for Hook. They have Taz get off-camera beat up, because trust me, that’s not a shoot, that’s kayfabe. They wouldn’t even have Hook on camera tonight if it was legit. But I feel like the culprit is either The Kingdom showing their true colors over that loss to Hook, or someone they want to move up into a bigger spotlight.
Good promo from Perry and Shibata to officially set up their TNT Championship match, and good stuff building a tag title match. Private Party having a new theme song to go with new attitude and new gear, all good stuff, but I did not think they’d beat The Iron Savages so quickly. Good promo for Private Party to call out The Bucks, and great little brawl to give us a Six Man Tag. I feel like someone on Private Party is taking that pin, and we’ve still got go-home week to see who stands tall before WrestleDream. Shibata is great but I feel like Perry finds a way to “survive” like he did with Suzuki. As for Private Party, I would love for them to win, but The Bucks probably pull something sneaky to cheat them.
And then great bookending of the night with this Blackpool Combat Club story. Great opening promo though I wish they had subs for Marina’s part. We got a great promo from Bryan to not just hype up tonight and the PPV but also to sum up the five years of Dynamite. And of course, an awesome match from Bryan VS Okada, even if it seemed a bit odd to have two titles on the line while keeping their separate rules intact. I just knew when this was announced that it’d go past 20 minutes so Okada’s title would be safe, and then Bryan would find a way to win. That’s what happened, but it was still awesome, and now Bryan leads the series 2-1.
However, I should’ve figured BCC would make a move on Bryan after. Great promo from Moxley to further tease what’s going on with this change in him. Yuta showing up to run BCC off and stand with Bryan was great, too, and their tag match for Title Tuesday next week will be good stuff. I would think that Yuta takes the pin, though, so that Claudio & Pac can call him the weak link and we’ll get into a scenario where the Trios Championships are on the line, Pac & Claudio having to find a new third man while Yuta has to go and find two partners, and we’ll get a really good match there.
My Score: 9.1/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Tony Schiavone is in the ring!
He welcomes us to Dynamite tonight in El Paso, and he welcomes out the 2025 Men’s Owen Hart Cup winner, Hangman Adam Page! The fans fire up as The Blackhat Cowboy walks out, King of Harts belt around his waist, and Schiavone brings up the great response from the fans. Hangman won The Owen in a dramatic classic on Sunday. The fans cheer, “You Deserve It!” as Hangman takes the mic. Hangman says, “Triumph. Triumph in life is fleeting, it’s momentary. You’re on top of the world for the night, and you wake up in the morning, and the moment you realize has passed you. But so is defeat.
“And in the past two years, and if I’m completely honest with myself, in the past three years, that is something that I let myself lose sight of. Because what matters is not the win, it is not the loss, it is what you decide to do with it that matters!” The fans cheer that! Hangman says at Double or nothing, two men entered the ring, and they both knew one would leave defeated. So before Hangman continues, he will say this to Will Ospreay. “Thank you. Thank you for the fight of my life! Thank you for reminding me why I decided to do this in the first place! And thank you for dispelling any notion that i had that you could not be the type of man to carry this company forward, because you can be!”
The fans cheer and chant for “Ospreay! Ospreay!” Hangman then says, while one tasted defeat, the other would taste victory. But he cannot relish in it! This moment is temporary and fleeting. Hangman will not hold this title, carry it or defend it. There will be another Owen Hart Cup, there will be another King of Harts. For now, Hangman returns this belt to AEW. Schiavone takes custody of the belt, and Hangman says he could stay out here all night and tell you how much this all truly means to him. But now, he must look forward to the one thing that for him, this has always been about: THE AEW World Championship!
The fans cheer that, and Hangman says that title has been the prize, the accomplishment, and the responsibility he has chased from the very moment we saw these three letters together for the first time. The fans chant “A E DUB! A E DUB!” Hangman says for seven MONTHS, that title has been hidden from the world, locked away in a briefcase. The fans boo, but Hangman says to him, that title was to be a shining light! A beacon to show the world what these three letters meant! It was about competition! About creativity! Compassion! Passion! And human dignity with which we all treat each other! That is what this is about!
The fans cheer more, and Hangman says on his first day in AEW, he told all of us, both here tonight and watching at home, that while he was here, we would be his boss. Tonight, he makes a promise. In seven weeks, here in Texas, Hangman will win the AEW World Championship! He will free it from the briefcase! He will hold it above his head for all the world to see! He will carry it and defend it with every ounce of his being, and that is a promise he will keep! But then “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Hangman is stunned, but here comes The Realest! Swerve steps into the ring to stare Hangman down, and Schiavone steps aside.
Swerve says, “I bet you wanna know why I’m here. So allow me to educate you and the fine people of El Paso, Texas why I’m here.” Swerve signals to the tron, and we flashback to April 9th of this year. Nick Jackson was explaining why The Young Bucks went and cost Swerve Strickland the AEW World Championship. They did it for their “good friend,” Hangman Page! Hangman wanted this! Swerve could not be world champion again, and The Bucks did that for him! They do not forget who their friends are! They love him, and they know he loves them. The fans boo and Swerve says he was looking at the same opportunity Hangman conveniently has now.
At Dynasty, the main event, Swerve had Moxley, he had the match won! And then so conveniently, The Bucks show up, who Swerve hadn’t bothered with since Blood & Guts, and they cost Swerve. But y’know who else was in the ring that night? Hangman Page. It is so funny how Hangman has his path to the title off Swerve’s loss. Swerve calls collusion! Hangman wants to make promises to the people of Texas? Let’s talk about a promise Hangman made. Hangman told Swerve to his face, in front of the world, that Hangman would never let Swerve be AEW World Champion again.
So Swerve is here now, staring Hangman down man to man, and he will ask Hangman, so don’t lie to him. Did Hangman do this? The fans chant “Tell The Truth! Tell The Truth!” Hangman says, “Well, dumbass… At Dynasty, I locked my eyes on you. Then I locked my eyes on Jon Moxley. And for one God forsaken second, I even thought about helping you. Swerve, if I had wanted to cost you that match, I would have done it myself to your face, because I have done it before.” The fans are torn, but Swerve says, “Sounds good, but you’re still full of sh*t.” The two jaw at each other while the fans rally up, but here comes Ospreay!
The fans cheer as the Aerial Assassin makes his way to the ring, and he has Swerve and Hangman back up. The fans are losing their minds seeing all three guys together. Ospreay borrows Swerve’s mic, and he looks to Hangman. The fans chant “BRUV! BRUV!” Ospreay then looks to Swerve, and Ospreay says he hates getting involved in Swerve’s business. Swerve has looked after Ospreay since he was 20 years old, he’s like a big brother. “But you’re wrong about him.” Ospreay defends Hangman, saying you learn a lot about someone getting in the ring with them when the stakes are high. And stakes couldn’t get any higher on Sunday.
On Sunday, Ospreay left it all in the ring with Hangman, and he has never felt more defeated in his entire life. Hangman had an important decision to make. He walked up the ramp, turned back, picked Ospreay up, and he shook Ospreay’s hand like a man. Ospreay looked in Hangman’s eyes, and he could see that Hangman cares about AEW. It is funny, because Ospreay had that same feeling when he lost to Swerve last year and then did the same thing. Swerve picked Ospreay up. Look around. The fans cheer, and Ospreay tells them both, “People are starting to believe in us again. I hate saying this to you, because I love you… But it is not you. I thought it was me, and it’s not me. It’s HIM!”
The fans cheer, and Ospreay wants Swerve to look at him. They have one shot at this. And they can make this easier on Hangman if they all work together. Swerve, Ospreay, Hangman- Swerve SLAPS the mic down! Ospreay wants Swerve to calm it down but Swerve says he will never work with Hangman, never trust Hangman, and never forgive Hangman! Swerve storms off and Ospreay is disappointed. The fans boo, but Ospreay tells Hangman to let that go. Hangman says he will work with Ospreay, but he will not work with Swerve either. Hangman storms off now, but will these bitter enemies ever realize this is bigger than them?
The Death Riders arrive.
Claudio parks the truck, and everybody spills out of the back. Moxley leads the way for Marina Shafir, Wheeler Yuta, and even Gabe Kidd. Moxley says, “Welcome to Dynamite.” They step into the building, find their way to the crowd, and they’re ready to redeem themselves from losing Anarchy in the Arena. But will they tear up Swerve’s allies to send a message? Or will this conglomeration come out on top?
Mixed Six Tag: Gabe Kidd, Jon Moxley & Marina Shafir VS Mark Briscoe, “Speedball” Mike Bailey & Willow Nightingale!

PROGRAMMING NOTE for Collision!

The Hurt Syndicate speaks.
MVP says, “Tonight was not just a momentous occasion, it was a historical occasion, because two things happened tonight. This was the fifth consecutive, successful title defense of the AEW Tag Team Championships, and the debut of the young genius, Maxwell Jacob Friedman, as a full-fledged member of the Hurt Syndicate.” MJF says, “Bobby & Shelton are the most dominate tag team in the world today. Think of any top tag team in this sport, anyone, they’d beat ’em clean, easy. These belts ain’t going nowhere. Now that I am in the Hurt Syndicate, I am gonna make sure of that. And the Syndicate, we roll together, so we’re all collectively going to make sure we’re all strapped in gold.
“As far as my Triple B goes, my Big Beautiful Belt, my AEW World title is concerned, it will soon be around my waist. And if you find yourself in between the Hurt Syndicate and our goals, don’t be surprised if you wake up face down in a pool of your own piss and blood. But hey, man, when it comes to the Syndicate, it ain’t personal. It’s just business.” They all fist bump, but who will be next to step up and get stepped on?
Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford speak.
The Superbad Girl says Anna Jay & Harley Cameron had to cheat to beat them on Sunday. Tonight, it is NO DISQUALIFICATIONS, just like Anna & Harley have always wanted. The Megasus says that means they are her next sacrifice. Will the path of destruction only be more destructive now that Megan doesn’t have to hold back?
Ricochet speaks.
The One & Only says, “I had told that everybody after Double or Nothing, after I had laid wasted to Mark Briscoe, I would continue my quest for gold. A quest that I have been on since day one here in AEW. But I stopped, and I take a second, and I look around AEW, and I get the lay of the land, and I start to see the landscape for what it actually is. I see the Death Riders, I see The Opps, I see the Don Callis Family, I see the Hurt Syndicate, and I think to myself… Ricochet needs a group. Ricochet needs a crew. Ricochet needs some loyal subjects that will follow and help him on his quest for gold.
“And once I do, once I find the perfect crew, then I will continue to show everybody why Ricochet is simply Outta This World. AHA~!”
No Disqualification Tag: Anna Jay & Harley Cameron VS Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford!
For those who watched the Double or Nothing Buy-In, what part of that tag match did Harley & Anna “cheat” to win? Perhaps the Megasus & Superbad Girl don’t want to admit they got outsmarted by the Queenslayer & Wild Aussie. But now there will be no excuses because there is no such thing as cheating in a No Disqualifications match! Will Anna & Harley be the stars of the show after going all out? Or will they be made to #BowDown?
Megan & Ford come prepared with a trash can, its lid, and a golden steel chair! But Anna & Harley are ready to ride as a couple cowgirls armed with two-by-four and steel pipe! The fans fire up as they rush the ring, and while Ford grabs at the wood, Anna trips her up! Harley slides in but Megan BOOTS her down! The bell rings and this essentially Texas Tornado gets spinning! Megan SLAMS Harley down, Anna sends Ford into railing, and Anna brings out chairs!

Harley & Anna mug Ford, then DDT her on the trash can lid! The fans fire up, Harley covers, but Megan breaks it! Megan stalks Harley, but Anna has her wood! Anna SMACKS Megan, but Megan doesn’t even flinch. Megan stares Anna down, the fans tell Anna she messed up, but Harley has her pipe! Harley CLUBS Megan and that was certainly felt! Anna grabs a chair and she SMACKS Megan! Harley PIPES Megan, Anna SMACKS Megan, repeat!
The fans fire up as Megan is just a giant pinball between those brutal flippers, but she gets pissed! Megan dodges H&A to DOUBLE LARIAT! The fans fire up as Megan then goes for her golden chair! Megan sits it up at center, drags Harley up, and she reels her in! But Harley slips out of the suplex! Harley drop toeholds Megan on the chair, Anna SHOTGUNS Megan down! The fans fire up, Anna covers, but Ford breaks it! Harley has Ford for a KNEE down low! Anna has a chair of her own, sets that down, and Harley lines up the shot. Anna runs, they give Ford a form of BOOT CAMP! Cover, TWO!! Ford survives but Anna & Harley go outside.
The fans rally as they go looking, and yes, they bring out a TABLE! The fans fire up as Anna & Harley stand the table up nearby, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Anna & Harley go back into the ring, but Megan is there to clinch Anna! OVERHEAD BELLY2BELLY! Ford goes Matrix to dodge Harley, and hits the CUTTER! Ford puts Harley in a corner for the HANDSPRING BACK ELBOW! Megan runs up to add a STINGER SPLASH! Ford picks up the trash can, puts it around Harley, and Megan sends her back in. SHOTGUN to the trash can! Ford drags Harley to a cover, TWO! Harley survives and Ford is frustrated. Ford dribbles Harley, Megan goes looking for things, and she brings out another table! Ford helps Megan set that up in the ring, propping it up in the corner.
Megan storms up on Anna, CLUBS her, then fireman’s carries. Megan runs at the table, DEATH VALLEY DRIVER through the table!! Megan drags Anna to a cover, HARLEY BREAKS IT! Ford is furious and she goes after Harley! Ford fireman’s carries, but Harley slips free to wrench and NECKBREAKER! Cover, Megan deadlifts Harley for a GERMAN SUPLEX! Megan huffs ‘n’ puffs and drags Harley over to the ropes. Megan scrubs Harley’s face with her boot, then soaks up heat. Megan brings Harley over, puts her on the apron, then goes out as Dynamite returns to single picture. The fans fire up already as Megan aims for the table!
Harley fights the urenage and throws elbows! Harley kicks low, SUNSET FLIP, but Megan holds on! Anna ROCKS Megan! Megan shakes her head as she holds on, but Anna ROCKS her again! Ford is up, armed with golden chair, but Anna BOOTS her first! Anna has the chair to SMACK Ford down! Then she SMACKS Megan in the face! Harley POWERBOMBS Megan down through the table!! The fans are thunderous and Anna is all fired up! But Ford runs up to BOOT Anna! Ford fireman’s carries, and GUT BUSTER DROPS Anna! Ford takes a chair, puts it under Anna, then STANDING MOONSAULTS, but Anna moves! Ford hits only chair!
The fans rally up while all four women are down! Harley rises up, looks to Anna and they coordinate. Harley fires up, she runs at Megan, but Megan blocks the wheelbarrow to SMACK Harley off the steel steps! Megan falls back, still hurting from the table, but now the ref has medics check Harley. El Paso declares, “This is Awesome!” while Harley stands up. She’s got a bloody nose, maybe a busted lip, but Harley won’t let that stop her! Harley storms her way into the ring, Ford runs up, and Ford DECKS Harley! Anna kicks Ford, Gory Especial, FULL METAL GORY BOMB as Ford lands on a chair!! Cover, MEGAN BREAKS IT!!

Winners: Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford, by pinfall
The Megasus unleashed her full power on Harley & Anna, leaving them both bloody messes. Will there be no stopping Megan’s rise to the top of the AEW Women’s Division?
Mercedes Mone arrives in a low rider.
The CEO is once again #FourBeltsMone as she holds up her Queen of Harts title, even as her driver parks the convertible. The AEW TBS Champion struts in as a rhinestone cowgirl, ready to meet the AEW Women’s World Champion face to face, but will they keep it civil? Or will there be a shootout in El Paso?
Six Man Tag: The Opps VS The Frat House!
Samoa Joe, Katsuyori Shibata & “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs were part of the winning Team AEW at Anarchy in the Arena. But now, they focus on being AEW World Trios Champions. Will they be ready to go all in this summer? OR will Preston Vance, Griff Garrison, Cole Karter, Jacked Jameson, and even their El Paso “Pledges” be toasting a huge victory?
Jameson has a mic, and he tries to get the fans to join in on “FRAT~ HOUSE~!” They boo instead. Jameson says okay, last night, here in El Paso, him and the boys at Shifty’s Dive, throwing one of their world famous pledge parties. They are traveling the country, throwing these parties, looking for their next members. They were out on the town, and there was a sign with a saying that Jameson really likes: El Paso Strong! The fans cheer that! Jameson says that doesn’t make sense, all the guys are weak and skinny and all the girls are fat and ugly. The fans boo again. Jameson says needless to say, they didn’t find a new member.
But hey, that’s okay, they are not leaving emptyhanded. They’re walking out tonight the NEW Trios Champions! Uh, the belts aren’t on the line…? But Preston Vance says, “Win or lose, we BOOOOOOOOOZE~!” Vance gets in Joe’s face with that, and Joe HEADBUTTS him down! Shibata and Hobbs go after Karter & Garrison on the outside while Jameson and the Pledges scramble. The bell rings, Joe JABS away on Vance in the corner! The fans fire up as Joe just fires off! Joe CHOPS Vance down, and Shibata runs Karter right into railing! Joe CHOPS Vance again, whips him corner to corner, then runs in.
Vance BOOTS Joe, runs, but Joe SWEEPS the legs! And SENTONS on top! Vance scrambles, tag to Griff, and Joe chuckles at the Ivy League MVP getting fired up. The fans rally for Joe, but Joe says uno momento. Tag to Shibata! The fans cheer as The Wrestler steps up. Shibata and Griff feel things out, then Griff CHOPS! Shibata CHOPS in return! Griff CHOPS again, Shibata CHOPS again, and repeat! The fans fire up as Griff fires a forearm but Shibata fires back! Shibata eggs Griff on as Griff fires more shots, only for Shibata to DECK him! Shibata runs corner to corner and HYDRAULIC DROPKICKS!
Shibata drags Griff up, HALF HATCH, then cover, TWO! Griff stays in this but now Shibata tags Hobbs. Griff scrambles away to tag in Karter, but the Diamond in the Rough doesn’t know what he got into. Karter fires hands but Hobbs just takes them! Hobbs TOSSES Karter to the corner, fires hands, then whips corner to corner. LARIAT in the corner! The fans chant “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” as Hobbs fires more LARIATS into Karter! Hobbs reels Karter in for the short arm LARIAT! The straps come down and the fans fire up. Hobbs DECKS Griff off the apron, but Vance BLATSS Shibata and Joe!
Joe runs in, Vance runs away, and the ref is distracted, so Jameson slips in with that frat paddle! Jameson SMACKS Hobbs! Hobbs just gets mad! Hobbs LARIATS Jameson up and out! A Pledge is sent in!? Hobbs gives him a SPINEBUSTER! Another Pledge tries, but he gets a SPIENBUSTER! The third Pledge tries, he gets a SPINEBUSTER! Vance has the paddle! The ref stops Vance, and Hobbs gives him a SPINEBUSTER! Karter climbs up the corner, almost slips, but he still leaps, into a SPINEBUSTER! Cover, Opps win!
Winners: The Opps, by pinfall
That was town bidness times ten! Will the Frat House study up next time? Will The Opps continue to prove they are #NeverLacking?
Renee Paquette is in the ring.
Renee welcomes out the woman who fought her heart out at Double or Nothing, Jamie Hayter! The fans cheer as Hayter heads to the ring, clearly bummed she is NOT the 2025 Queen of Harts. Renee brings up that unfortunately, Hayter could not overcome Mone in the finals. And she knows Hayter was worried about what her future in AEW would look like without that win. Has Hayter had time to think about what’s next? Hayter tells Renee, that is the question. But then the lights go out!? Oh no, could it be…? The lights come back up and it is THEKLA! The Toxic Spider is in AEW, and she’s right on Hayter!
Thekla DECKS Hayter, then stands over her! Thekla stares into the camera, then spider-walks over! Will the “Idol Killer” tear down all those that came before her in order to be THE woman in AEW?
AEW TNT Championship: Adam Cole VS Kyle Fletcher w/ The Don Callis Family!
The Paragon could not stop the Don Callis Family on Sunday, and now the Panama City Playboy is the Protostar’s next target! Will the Aussie Arrow hit the mar and take this title home for the family? Or will it still be all about the BOOM?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is the true Face of TNT!
Callis is on commentary to say the fans love Cole because he’s just like the fans: he lives on hopes and dreams. Callis says you can’t take hopes to the bank, but you can bank on Fletcher! The bell rings and the fans rally up as Cole and Fletcher stare down. Cole and Fletcher circle, feel things out, and tie up. Fletcher puts Cole in a corner, lets off slowly, then rolls back to mock the “Adam Cole Baybay!” Cole and Kyle circle, tie up, and Cole waistlocks. Fletcher pries free, switches, then he SLAMS Cole down! The fans are torn but Fletcher flexes on Cole. Cole and Fletcher reset, circle, and tie up. Cole headlocks, Kyle fights the takeover, and Kyle powers out.
Kyle RUNS Cole over, smirks, and then goes back for Cole. Kyle slips, Cole slips free, and Cole fires forearms! Kyle scoops but Cole fights free again! Kyle kicks low, CLUBS Cole on the back, but Cole PELES! The fans fire up and Kyle staggers around! Cole storms up to fire hands and he puts Kyle in a corner. Cole stomps a mudhole into Kyle, steps off as the ref counts, and he gives a proper “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY!” The fans cheer, Cole whips corner to corner, but Kyle reverses. Kyle runs up but Cole puts him on the apron, and SUPERKICKS him down! The fans fire up and Cole waits on Kyle. Cole goes to the apron and takes aim, only for PRG Vice to step up!
The fans boo as Rocky Romero & Trent Beretta stand in Cole’s way, but Callis says this is strength in numbers. Well speaking of, Roderick Strong & Kyle O’Reilly rush out here! Paragon brawls with RPG Vice and head to the back! The fans fire up, Cole goes to fetch Fletcher, but Fletcher SUPERKICKS Cole down! Kyle drags Cole up, reels him in, and APRON POWERBOMBS!! That was a lot more Cole’s head and neck then his back, and while the ref checks Cole, Callis mockingly says he’s gonna check on Kyle while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Fletcher flexes more while he soaks up heat, and Callis really does walk over to talk with him. Kyle steps into the ring and somehow Cole is okay to continue, so a ring count starts. Cole stirs at about 3 of 10, Callis & Kyle soak up more heat, but then Kyle goes out to fetch Cole at about 7. Kyle drags Cole into the ring, then stomps him down! Kyle stomps Cole more, then stalks him to ropes. Kyle JUMP STOMPS Cole down! And JUMP STOMPS again! Then he CHOKES Cole on the ropes! The ref counts, Kyle steps off, and Cole goes to a corner. Kyle soaks up heat, distracts the ref, and that lets Callis CHOKE Cole!
Callis scurries back to commentary before he’s caught, and Kyle drags Cole up. Cole fires body shots but Kyle eggs him on. Cole fires more shots, but Kyle BOOTS him down! Kyle paces while he soaks up more heat, and he checks if that’s for him or for Cole. It is for Kyle, so Kyle scoops Cole and SLAMS him! Kyle paces more while Cole writhes. Cole sits up but Kyle is on him with another scoop and SLAM! Kyle leans on the ropes while he soaks up more heat, then he goes back to Cole. Kyle rains down fists, clamps on a chinlock, and he grinds Cole down. Cole endures and fights up while Dynamite returns to single picture.
The fans rally as Cole fires body shots, only for Kyle to scoop and SLAM again! Kyle twists Cole’s wrist, scoops and SLAMS again, then eggs everyone on. The fans boo but Kyle drags Cole up. Cole fires forearms! The fans rally, but Kyle scoops and spins to SLAM! Callis says the reason Cole was outside to be hit with that apron powerbomb is because he went after Kyle outside the ring. Callis says Cole only has himself to blame. Kyle runs corner to corner, but Cole SUPERKICKS! Callis is eating his words the way Kyle ate that foot! The fans are thunderous as Cole rises up! Cole storms up to fire forearm after forearm!
Kyle shoves Cole but Cole LARIATS! And ELBOWS! And BOOTS! Kyle staggers around, Cole brings him over, but Kyle fights the fireman’s carry! Kyle runs, but Cole BOOTS him! Kyle rebounds into the fireman’s carry! USHIGOROSHI! Cover, TWO! Kyle survives but the fans rally behind Cole. Cole rises up, goes to the corner, and he climbs up to aim again. Kyle stands into the PANAMA- NO, Kyle BACKDROPS then sits down on a cover, TWO!! Cole escapes, Kyle blocks his kick, and Kyle spins Cole for a SNAP HALF ‘N’ HALF! Cole flounders, Kyle runs corner to corner, GAMANGIRI! And then Kyle reels Cole in, but Cole suplexes, GHOST BUSTER!!
Cole fires up, rises up, and the fans are with him! PANAMA SUNRISE!!! Kyle sputters, Cole brings down the kneepad, and Callis freaks out! But JOSH ALEXANDER is here, and he just CLOBBERS Cole!!
Winner: Adam Cole, by disqualification (still AEW TNT Champion)
Callis laughs as the Don Callis Family’s Walking Weapon beats Cole down! But Kyle doesn’t get to be TNT Champion, what good was this? Alexander BITES Cole, Callis says break Cole! Kyle & Alexander mug Cole while the fans boo and cuss Callis out! But wait! Here comes Brody King! The King of Death ahs a chair, and he runs Alexander & Kyle off! This match was to be the main event, but it might as well happen now! Will Brody bulldoze through Alexander to head for Fyter Fest? Or will the Don Callis Family still secure something good for the Summer?
AEW International Championship Qualifier: Josh Alexander w/ The Don Callis Family VS Brody King!
Dynamite returns, security standing between the Walking Weapon and King of Death, but they won’t wait any longer! Security is literally thrown aside and the bell rings! The brawl is on and the fans love it! Brody KNEES Alexander, ROCKS him, puts him in a corner, and CHOPS him! And ROCKS him! And repeat! Brody ROCKS and CHOPS, stands Alexander up and whips corner to corner. Brody runs up, Alexander BOOTS him then goes up, to MISSILE DROPKICK! Alexander dusts himself off, stomps Brody around, then rips the shirt away to CHOKE Brody with it! The ref counts, Alexander stops at 4 and taunts Brody by flossing with the shirt, and we don’t mean teeth.
Alexander offers the shirt to fans, but then drops it on the floor. Alexander whips, Brody reverses and BACKDROPS! The fans fire up as Callis keeps putting Alexander over as the best Canadian wrestler ever. Brody gets his shirt back, and he stuffs it in Alexander’s mouth! The fans cheer but Callis says there is no place for that here! Brody has Alexander against the ropes and CLUBS him! Alexander suffers Beats of the War Drum, and fans count to seven before Brody shoves him down! Brody tosses his shirt away, then brings Alexander up. Alexander fires body shots but Brody ROCKS him back. Brody puts Alexander against the post, hushes the fans, and winds up.
But Alexander ducks, Brody’s CHOP hits POST! The fans all wince as Brody clutches his hand! Alexander then RAMS Brody into the post to go after the shoulder! Alexander wrenches the arm, and he SLAMS it off railing! The fans boo but Alexander keeps after Brody. Alexander CHOPS Brody, refreshes the count, then brings Brody around to whip. But Brody reverses to send Alexander into barriers! Brody choke grips with his off hand, and he BARRIER CHOKE SLAMS Alexander! The fans fire up and Brody CHOPS Alexander against the barrier! Alexander falls, the fans fire up, and Brody stalks Alexander around the way.
Brody brings Alexander up, ROCKS him, but that was the bad hand. The fans rally and Brody puts Alexander in the ring. Alexander BOOTS Brody, then BOOTS the arm! Alexander runs, but Brody breaks through the lariat and CLOBBERS Alexander! Alexander tumbles out of the ring, and Brody builds speed! Brody DIVES into a FOREARM! Alexander has Brody in the ropes, APRON DDT! Brody slumps down and sputters, and then Alexander CHOPS him! The fans rally, Alexander runs, and he BODY CHECKS Brody off the apron! Alexander soaks up the heat while Lance Archer applauds. Callis says Alexander is not intimidated by size because he has the technique!
Fans chant “You Suck!” but Alexander SLAMS the bad arm into the post! Brody clutches his hand, but he CHOPS with the left! And CHOPS again! Alexander kicks and CHOPS in return! Alexander brings Brody around the way, and whips him hard into steel steps! Brody writhes, Alexander grins as he refreshes the count, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref checks on Brody, but Brody refuses to let the bad arm stop him. Alexander goes out and walks up the steps so he can stomp Brody’s hand! The ref reprimands but Alexander kicks Brody around. Alexander puts Brody in the ring, but Brody ROCKS him with an elbow! Brody CHOPS, but Alexander CLAWS Brody’s eyes! Alexander adjusts his wrestling headgear before bringing Brody around. Alexander HIP DROPS the good arm, looking to leave Brody with no arms! Alexander traps the bad arm and SNAP LOCKS it! Brody writhes and Alexander takes a moment to soak up heat. Brody drags himself up with the ropes, but Alexander pulls on the arms!
The ref reprimands, Brody ROCKS Alexander, but Alexander kicks low! Alexander climbs up in the corner to rain down fists! Brody stops Alexander at five, but Alexander CHOPS! Brody CHOPS, Alexander CHOPS repeat! Alexander CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS, then brings Brody in for a BIG suplex! That alone was impressive, and Alexander covers, TWO! Brody toughs it out and Alexander grows frustrated. Alexander looms over Brody, throws down elbows, then he drags Brody by the bad arm. SNAP LOCK! Brody writhes again but Alexander paces.

Winner: Brody King, by pinfall (advances to the AEW International Championship match)
The Don Callis Family had two chances tonight, failed them both, and now Brody heads for Colorado and Fyter Fest. Will The King of Death end the reign of The Best Bout Machine? Who else will join Brody and Kenny Omega in the Mile High City?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
On top of the other two International Championship qualifiers, Claudio VS Komander and Hechicero VS Mascara Dorada, we will have Mina Shirakawa VS Skye Blue! Will the Fighting Gravure Idol stay strong in the wake of losing at Double or Nothing? Plus, after the confrontation during the TNT Championship match, Paragon battles RPG Vice, but with some added names to the mix! RPG Vice bring in NEVER Openweight Champion, Konosuke Takeshita, while Roddy & Kyle conglomerate with NJPW Strong Openweight Champion, Tomohiro Ishii! Could this Six Man Tag open some doors to more golden opportunities?
Kyle Fletcher speaks.
The Protostar does not know whose call that was, whether it was Callis or Alexander, but he doesn’t care, because he does NOT need help out there, and certainly not to beat Adam Cole! He should be standing here as the NEW TNT Champion! But speaking of Cole, he comes running in and the two start throwing hands! Kyle has a GUILLOTINE FACELOCK! Security rushes out, separates the two, and Cole says Kyle is a dead man! Cole knows he had Kyle beat, but when and where will these two put the claims to rest?
Mercedes Mone heads to the ring!
The CEO struts her way out, carrying all her belts, the Owen Hart Cup on display. Mone grabs a mic and says, “El Pasooooo~! I now stand before you not only as the greatest TBS & Rev-Pro Champion of all time… But as the greatest winner of the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament!” The fans are torn, but Mone says the legends, Owen Hart and her hero, Eddie Guerrero… The fans cheer for El Paso’s own, the late, great Latino Heat, and Mone says they do NOT compare to the greatness of Mone! That is why she is the CEO of AEW! But wait! Timeless Toni Storm makes her way out here! This face-to-face is now official as the AEW Women’s World Champion steps into the ring.
The fans cheer for Toni, and the two champions eye each other while Toni gets herself a mic. Toni kicks off the shoes and sets her belt down on the mat. Mone says, “Toni, darling, we finally meet.” The fans applaud that, and Mone says she knows these AEW fans are so sick of the black ‘n’ white. They want a champion full of color! The fans boo that, but Toni says, “Hello, Mercedes. I have waited so long for you. 441 days ago, you arrived in AEW on a show named after you. And since then, you’ve won titles, you’ve made history, and you’ve remained undefeated. But you have never once spoke to me. You have never once looked at me.
“You said that you’ve been watching me since before you even came here. You told Antony Khan that this was the one match you wanted to have. So, darling, what took you so long?” The fans cheer, and Mone says back, “What took me so long? Patience, darling, patience.” The fans boo, but Mone says this isn’t about Toni, this is about Mone and her legacy. And you think she’s going to go around backstage shaking just anybody’s hand? When Mone is the Beyonce of Women’s Wrestling? You gotta be kidding! The fans boo but Mone asks Toni, “Do you not know who I am? I am the standard, I am the conversation, I am the blueprint, I AM the revolution!”
Fans are torn, but Toni smirks as there are those who chant, “No, You’re Not! No, You’re Not!” Toni says she is the Toni Storm of Pro-Wrestling, and she swears to an unknown God that you have NEVER met anyone like her! The fans cheer that! Mone says yes, that’s right. This Toni, this “shy, nervous Toni Storm that I met ten years ago,” is very different. But so is Mone. Mone is not just a Boss, she is a CEO. She has beaten the very best from all over the world, from Mexico to Japan to England. And now at All In: Texas, Mone is bringing it home. We will have THE greatest women’s match of all time! Fans like the sound of that.
Toni says they have so many similarities. They both started so young, struggled on the indies, found success, were given trophies and flowers, and when those weren’t enough, they left it all behind to follow their hearts. And in AEW, they became exactly who they are meant to be! The fans cheer that! Mone nods, and Toni continues: There is one glaring difference. While Mone wants all the titles, Toni needs only one. Toni has lived for this title, she has cried for this title, she has bled for this title, and she has DIED for this title! The fans chant, “She’s Our Champion! Toni! Toni!” Mone is annoyed, but Toni keeps going.
“So if you want to ride the Money Train through the Toni Tunnel, I just hope you can get deep enough.” The fans cheer that! Mone says not even Toni’s hips are wide enough for the Money Train! Toni says 45 days form now, they will meet again in Texas. And somewhere in the world, a little girl with big dreams will be watching. She will say, “Holy S*IT, these b*tches are crazy!” And then, that little girl will find out who the better woman is! Toni sincerely believes Mone is the greatest of all time. But unfortunately for Mone, Toni happens to be TIMELESS~! The fans cheer that, and Mone scowls.
Mone tells Toni that Toni may call herself timeless, but what she deserves is for her time to come an end! Mone will see Toni at All In! Toni says, “See you at All In, darling.” The fans fire up as Mone puts her other belts aside to offer a handshake. Toin smiles and accepts. Then they bring each other in to stare down. Toni smells Mone, and then kisses Mone on the hand. Mone reels Toni in for a Gory Especial! Toni fights out to reel Mone in! Mone scrambles free of the driver, and the fans fire up! That was just a taste of what’s to come, but who will taste sweet victory when these two battle it out in Globe Life Field?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite to follow Double or Nothing while building to Fyter Fest and All In. Excalibur said himself that tonight paralleled Double or Nothing by bookending things with the Owen Hart Cup stories. Great opening promo from Hangman, Swerve and Ospreay. Swerve did have a good point of asking if Hangman was in cahoots with The Bucks, but we also know that’s not the case. And of course Swerve and Hangman will be at odds during this whole All In build. But just as likely, we will get a great “Avengers working together” kind of moment to finally take out the Death Riders and get that title off Moxley.
Great closing promo from Toni and Mone, with a good reference back to their time in WWE. I’m still hoping for them to put all the belts on the line so that they are truly going all in. But the tease of someone taking a finisher to the belt was good stuff. 45 days of build, who knows what else we get, but there’s also no guarantee that Mone keeps the TBS Championship. It’d be wild if someone took that title from her on the way, but it could be a point of pressure that Mone has to defend her other belts while Toni only has to worry about one.
Good debut for Thekla tonight, it was very in line with a Malakai/Aleister Black debut. Hayter seems to automatically be the woman who faces returning and debuting wrestlers and that’s not a bad spot, but it would be nice if she got to do title stuff. Great women’s tag match, and kudos to Harley fighting through a broken nose. But in the end, the Heels winning made sense when they lost at Double or Nothing. There’s talk of tag titles coming, but I don’t have faith in that when TK’s pacing of the women’s division still hasn’t improved. The current example is the poor planning he has with the ROH Women’s Pure Championship.
RIP the Frat House, their ceiling is ROH after getting crushed by The Opps. A little surprised we didn’t get Hook showing up or having a promo, but maybe that happens for Collision. The Mixed Six Tag was great stuff, and throwing Speedball in there was a little surprising until it was clear the Death Riders were winning that. Good promo from Hurt Syndicate, but every time MJF talks about “his” world title, it feels like Lashley wants to roll his eyes or something, because duh, why wouldn’t he and Shelton want their own shots at that title? If Moxley does lose at All In, and MJF goes after Hangman, you can bet MJF and Lashley butt heads again over who really gets the title match.
Good promo from Ricochet, but I wonder… Ricochet wants a crew, there’s a duo named CRU… Is Ricochet going to lead Lio & Action as a trio? And if it isn’t CRU, who would fall in line behind Ricochet? Unless that’s the point of his next story arc: failing to make a faction because he’s that insufferable. And great Don Callis Family stuff tonight. Cole VS Kyle was great, good move for Paragon to go after them, and that Six Man Tag on Collision will be fun. Alexander running out there really was confusing, not just kayfabe, but maybe they want to give Kyle an out. Kyle is great as a wrestler and a personality, fans surely will cheer for him over the rest of Callis Family, but we’ll wait and see how Cole VS Kyle 2 goes.
Alexander VS Brody was a great main event match, with great story of going after Brody’s hand. Alexander getting busted open hard way from perhaps that top rope stuff did add something. And honestly, I’m pleasantly surprised by Brody winning. Brody and Omega alone is great, but then it’ll surely be Claudio over Komander, and now Hechicero over Mascara Dorada to keep the two Faces and two Heels ratio.
My Score: 8.9/10

It’s the Double or Nothing Buy-In!
Join Renee Paquette, RJ City & Jeff Jarrett in discussing, predicting and analyzing all the action about to happen in Phoenix, Arizona!
Backstage interview with Ricochet.
Lexy Nair asks the One & Only how he feels going into not just AEW’s first Stretcher Match, but his own first stretcher match against the unpredictable Mark Briscoe. Ricochet says Lexy is smarter than Renee Paquette & Tony Schiavone combined, but that’s not saying much. That said, this is his first Stretcher Match, but while some say Mark is unpredictable, Ricochet says Mark’s brainless. Speaking of brainless, there have been a lot of discourse online about the rules of a Stretcher Match, so allow Ricochet to explain.
Rule one: Ricochet incapacitates Mark long enough to place his dumbass on a stretcher. Ricochet then rolls said stretch up to the lovely ambulance the local hospital has supplied for them. Ricochet puts the stretcher in the ambulance, close the doors, and Mark immediately receives the best medical care possible for the beating Ricochet just put upon him! Um, what’s rule two? Rule two is that there ARE no rules, outside of rule one. AHA~! Ricochet heads out, but will he make this Stretcher Match #OuttaThisWorld? Or will he fail to #ManUp against the Sussex County Chicken?

Alex Marvez is with Sammy Guevara & Dustin Rhodes, and he’s ready to rep the #DayOneGuys. Marvez notes Sammy was part of that very first Double or Nothing in 2019. Safe to say, things have changed? Yes, that is true. Sammy is a husband and dad! He has a legendary tag partner, and he even has new merchandise! But tonight, things change again as the Sons of Texas become the NEW AEW World Tag Team Champions! The Natural’s very first AEW match was with his brother, Cody, and that remains one of, if not THE bloodiest match in AEW history. Is Dustin going to bring that same level of violence?
Dustin says yes, absolutely. He wants everyone to know that last night, he was pondering on this moment. He looked out the window and saw this storm rolling in. It didn’t look good. It looked really, really bad. Hurt Syndicate, the Sons of Texas want more gold. Understand, try and hurt Dustin! There’s nothing he hasn’t already been through! This is for ALL the gold!

Winner: Hangman Page, by pinfall (2025 Men’s Owen Hart Cup winner)
Another instant classic, and The Cowboy has his redemption! At least, redemption in this Owen Hart Tournament after he fell short in 2024. Will he have true redemption when he takes the AEW World Championship back? Will he be the hero that takes down Maniac Jon Moxley? Will AEW go All In with the Hangman?
Hangman goes to leave, but then decides to step back into the ring. The fans cheer for “Both These Guys!” as Hangman stands over Ospreay. Ospreay looks up, then manages to stand. The two stare down once again, covered in the confetti and streamers, and Hangman offers a handshake. Ospreay takes it, and the fans cheer the show of respect. Is this a sign that their gentlemen’s agreement stands? Will Ospreay and Hangman be allies against the Death Riders and tear them down together?
My Thoughts:
An awesome Double or Nothing, even with a mishap/misunderstanding on when Buy-In/Zero Hour started. Maybe AEW themselves thought they were doing more Buy-In matches, but I’m relieved it was only two. Great tag match from Harley & Anna VS Megan & Ford, and a great win for the Faces. I almost thought Megan was going to turn on Ford for messing up, but maybe that happens the next time Ford loses a match for Megan. And great 8 Man Tag, with another great win for Faces, but it was definitely a filler-for-fun kind of match.
Great move bookending the night with the Owen Hart Cup matches, and Mone VS Hayter was a great opening match for the main card. Mone winning was mostly expected, and just me personally, I’m still disappointed that we’re not getting Mone VS Athena at All In. They teased it when the tournament started because Athena eyed the TBS Championship, but now, Athena barely even does stuff on ROH now and Mone is facing Toni Storm. Toni VS Mina was awesome, too, one of Mina’s best matches in or out of AEW, and the fans loved both of them so I don’t think the fans would’ve hated Mina winning.
Great stuff with FTR VS Nigel & Garcia but I’m also a bit disappointed we didn’t get anything from Cope. Not even like a tease that he’s on his way back to put some fear in FTR. I did like all the extra stuff with Schiavone, though. Awesome Stretcher/Ambulance match with Ricochet VS Briscoe, and Briscoe of course bled. Ricochet winning made sense, though, he’s on the rise and needs that momentum so he’ll be hot on the other side of a title story. A little surprised he isn’t in the International Championship field, but I guess having a match starring CMLL luchadores was a given to help prepare for Grand Slam: Mexico. Maybe Ricochet targets a top CMLL name for that show…
That said, I can’t believe Fyter Fest is going to be a FOUR HOUR SPECIAL, right before the FOUR HOUR Summer Blockbuster on June 11th! Way to make Grand Slam: Mexico feel important when it’s just a two hour show and then they go to Washington state for Collision that week. Of the field, Claudio definitely gets in, and I would think Josh Alexander does to represent Don Callis Family. That’s two Heels, so Mascara Dorada should get in and be another Face alongside Omega. It also works on the level that Callis keeps putting Alexander over as the best Canadian wrestler and Omega is also Canadian so they will settle that argument Callis is making.
Speaking of Don Callis, the Six Man Tag of Don Callis Family VS Paragon made for a great buffer between Anarchy in the Arena and the main event. It was still a very good match, but I could’ve also seen this main-eventing a Dynamite or Collision. I’m surprised we didn’t get as much Kyle VS Kyle in that, but it did happen for the finish. Fletcher as the guy to go after Cole’s TNT Championship is a good choice. Konosuke doesn’t have to go for a title while he’s still NEVER Openweight Champion for NJPW, but I love that Brody, Ishii & Tanahashi reinforced Paragon. It is a partial tease for some Forbidden Door stuff but that’s not until August, so maybe we get some Conglomeration 2.0 on the way, under the Paragon nickname.
Great tag title match, and they made it fun despite everyone knowing it was going to be Hurt Syndicate’s win. MJF and Lashley being tense with each other just to show they’re palling around like that was clever, and now Hurt Syndicate checks off another team. Okada VS Bailey could be a sleeper hit of this PPV, and maybe of all month because both guys busted out so much of their movesets, countered a good amount of the other guy’s stuff, and then Okada still finds a way to win and cleanly. Okada himself should really hop right to another title story to stay hot with these big four hour shows they’re doing.
This year’s Anarchy in the Arena was wild, the wildest one yet I would think. A shame Eddie Kingston didn’t show, given the social media posts he had teasing it, but if he wasn’t 100% by tonight, it couldn’t be helped. Briscoe sorta jumps in as a great proxy for Eddie, though, and of course someone extra was needed with Gabe Kidd helping out. I like how Hook helped out just the littlest bit but is clearly feeling snubbed with how Hobbs joined the Opps to be a trios champion. That can be the next phase of the story for Joe since he isn’t THE world champion right now. Great finish with Omega’s “exploding” table and those spiked sneakers from Swerve.
And of course, Ospreay VS Hangman tore down the house. Well, the proverbial house was barely standing after this wild night but then it was just completely demolished with this main event. Ospreay and Hangman busted out just about everything they had, similar to Okada VS Bailey, and it really could’ve gone either way. I was pleasantly surprised to see Hangman got the win, though. I remember saying it a few years ago that Hangman’s entire career story has been perfect pacing and such, and I think I’m going to stand by it. He had his rough patches, but he’s got his redemption arc going now, and he has Ospreay as an ally along with the Faces we just saw in Anarchy in the Arena. They’ll be alike an AEW Avengers/Thunderbolts taking on The Death Riders going towards All In and it’ll be great.
My Score: 9.3/10
