2024 Super Junior Tag League A Block: Ryusuke Taguchi & Dragon Dia VS Clark Connors & “Drilla” Dan Moloney!
Speaking of on the bubble, the Funky Weapon and Infinity Carat Diamond are on the edge at 1-2 while the War Dogs are riding high as the ONLY 3-0 across both blocks! But will all that change in round 4? Or will no amount of 69 outdo the 100 Proof & 44 Caliber?
Dragon Dia is honored to see The Dragon Kid on commentary, and both he and Taguchi shake the legend’s hand before going into the ring. As for the War Dogs, they just insult Dragon Kid instead… The teams sort out and much like Tiger and Robbie were the Flying Tigers, Taguchi and Connors stare down as former teammates in the “Wild Hips.” Connors says no to the handshake, but he does call Taguchi out. They start the match and the fans rally with the bell. Taguchi and Connors circle, tie up, and are in a deadlock. Taguchi finds a point of leverage to put Connors on ropes, and then he shows punch, but backs off.
The fans applaud and Taguchi still shows punch. Taguchi and Connors reset, circle again, and tie up. Connors powers Taguchi back to ropes now, Red Shoes calls the break, and Connors slowly backs off. Connors then swings, but Taguchi dodges! Taguchi headlocks, and he grinds Connors to the mat. Connors fights back up, but Taguchi grinds harder. Connors pries at the hold, powers up and out, and they RAM shoulders! The fans cheer as neither man falls, and Taguchi eggs Connors on.

Connors may want nothing to do with Wild Hips, but he gets rammed into the Funky Weapon again, and again, and again! Taguchi’s max is three so Dia lets Connors go.
Dia and the fans cheer, and Connors sputters as he tries to get that stank off him. Dia grabs the legs again but Connors BOOTS him away! Drilla catches Dia to a SLEEPER, then Connors runs up to CHOP! Tag to Drilla and the War Dogs mug Dia. Drilla CHOPS Dia, CLUBS him on the back, but Dia CHOPS back! And CHOPS again! Drilla eggs Dia on, Dia CHOPS again, so Drilla knees low. Drilla back suplexes, but Dia lands out! Dia BLASTS Connors, dodges Drilla, and tilt-o-whirl arm-drags! The fans fire up, Dia keeps moving, tilt-o-whirl twice for the DEJA VU RANA! Dragon Kid loves it as The War Dogs regroup on the outside.
Dia takes aim and PLANCHAS, but the War Dogs catch him! So Taguchi PLANCHAS and down they go! The fans fire up with Taguchi & Dia, and then Dia coordinates with Taguchi. Dia fetches his skateboard and goes up the ramp! Taguchi stomps Connors, then he sets Drilla up. Dia rides his skateboard down the ramp, to then tilt-o-whirl arm-drag! The fans cheer again, and Dia brings Taguchi’s board over. Taguchi now goes up the ramp, and Dia sets Connors up! The fans fire up as Taguchi lines up the shot. Taguchi isn’t as good a skater as Dia, so Taguchi decides to BOOGY BOARD it, but Connors breaks free to BOOT Taguchi down!
Drilla asks WTF, and Connors stomps Taguchi. Drilla brings Dia up, has fans clear out, and then he BOWLS Dia into the chairs! Now that’s a STRIKE! As for Connors, he’s burying Taguchi under railing! Piece after piece, and then Connors grabs a Young Lion! Connors TOSSES the Young Lion onto the pile! The fans rally but Connors barks at them all while he stands on Taguchi. Red Shoes starts the count, but Drilla DROPS Dia on chairs! The count reaches 10 of 20 while Connors skateboards over. Connors ROCKS Dia, brings him around, and we hit 15 of 20 before Connors puts Dia in. Drilla looms over Dia, then stands on him.
Dia has the ropes so no cover, cocky as it is, but then Drilla takes Dia’s Dragon mask! Drilla THROWS the mask at Dragon Kid! Kid gets mad but commentary says he should stay out of this. Drilla whips Dia to the corner, tags Connors, and Drilla grinds his forearms into Dia’s face. Connors fires a BODY SHOT, then he reels Dia in to snap suplex! Cover, TWO! Dia stays in this and the fans applaud. Connors drags Dia up, TOSSES him out, and then distracts Red Shoes. Dia has the skateboard! BOARD SHOT to Dia! Drilla leaves Dia behind and the ring count begins. The fans and Taguchi rally for Dia, and Dia is in at 10 of 20.
The fans applaud but Connors smothers Dia for a cover. Dia has the ROPEBREAK already, so Connors drags Dia up. Connors whips Dia into the corner, but Dia BOOTS back!

Drilla CHOPS Dia, stomps Dia, then stomps his hand! Dia writhes but Drilla drags him up.
Drilla scoops Dia to SLAM, then he tags Connors. Drilla has a leg, Connors runs up to ELBOW DROP! Drilla then BLASTS Taguchi again! Connors covers, TWO! Dia toughs it out and the fans cheer. Dia crawls to a corner, and now Dragon Kid gets the fans really fired up for “DA-I-YA! DA-I-YA!” Connors whips Dia corner to corner, runs up, but Dia BOOTS him! And RANAS!

Winners: Ryusuke Taguchi & Dragon Dia, by pinfall (gain 2 points; War Dogs earn 0)
Absolutely incredible! The War Dogs lose to the underdogs! Connors & Drilla are still 3-1, but did their path to the finals just take a detour?
As for Taguchi & Dia, still alive in this tournament, they catch their breath while the fans cheer them on. Dia gets the mic to say, “We won!” The fans cheer that. Dia says he & Taguchi were able to fight ’til the very end against the strongest opponents in this tournament, who were undefeated to this point, because they had Tsubame behind them! Dia thanks the fans, and the fans cheer that. Dia apologizes if he’s a little too excited. He’s maybe said too much, even when most fans probably don’t know who he is. Please allow him to properly introduce himself.
He is normally a Dragon Gate wrestler, and his name is Dragon Diamond. The fans applaud, and Dia says he is in this Super Junior Tag League because back in this year’s Best of the Super Juniors, Dia stepped in when Taguchi was scheduled to participate but could not after a motorcycle accident. Through that connection, they became friends, and that brings them here to today. Dia is sure there are those who look at this tag team and aren’t sure they’ll win. But Dia has a reason why he has to win! That reason is, in the motorcycle accident Taguchi had, he only had the accident because he swerved to avoid hitting a dog. The fans applaud that self-sacrifice.
Dia adds that even then, after an accident that could’ve cost Taguchi his lift, Taguchi is back here, wrestling in this ring! The fans cheer that, too, and Taguchi takes a quick bow. Dia says that he believes pro-wrestlers should be heroes to the people. Taguchi is the kind of hero that helps the weak, stops the bullies, and rises up from any situation! The fans cheer that, too! Dia says that kind of hero, even a hero of butts, is the kind of hero he wants to be. Dia & Taguchi will find a way to win this Tag League, so that they can be true heroes! And just looking at today, you can see they CAN win! The fans cheer, and Dia shakes hands with Taguchi.
Dia continues by asking the people to continue watching them, The Skateboard Brothers. And lastly, Dia wants to point out his “shishou,” his master/teacher, Dragon Kid, on commentary. The fans cheer, and Dia says having Kid-shishou here gave Dia that strength to fight. Dia bows as he deeply thanks Kid for being here. Dia apologizes if he talked too much, but he thanks them all for the support. Be ready for The Skateboard Brothers to win it all! The fans cheer as these heroes in the making head out. Will the Funky Weapon & Infinity Carat Diamond shine brightest of all in this Super Junior Tag League?
Here are the NEW A Block standings!
Clark Connors & “Drilla” Moloney: 3-1, 6 points
Sho & Yoshinobu Kanemaru: 3-1, 6 points
Robbie Eagles & Kosei Fujita: 3-1, 6 points
Ryusuke Taguchi & Dragon Dia: 2-2, 4 points
Hiromu Takahashi & Bushi: 1-3, 2 points [ELIMINATED]
Tiger Mask & Capitan Suicida: 0-4, 0 points [ELIMINATED]
My Thoughts:
A great round for A Block, and with a couple surprising results. Tiger Mask & Capitan Suicida not stopping TMDK made sense, the TMDK Era is growing stronger, and this win keeps Robbie & Fujita in the running. And I should’ve figured The House of Torture would go the extra mile to cheat LIJ, but they did it in a very clever way. Handcuffs for Naito and Bushi even before Yujiro showing up, of course The House would win to also stay in this at 3-1. The great surprise was Taguchi & Dia giving The War Dogs their first loss to bring them down to 3-1. That is a fun little traffic jam, and this adds some great drama to round 5.
My Score: 8.8/10

Hangman Page is here!
Mexico City fires up for the Blackhat Cowboy as he makes his way into Arena Mexico for the first time! Hangman has a mic to say, “Hola! Mi nombre es Hangman.” And he asks they excuse his Espanol, it isn’t the best. But Hangman knows that like most White people, he’ll do his best. His familia used to grow tobacco, and they were hard workers. And they had employees who were hard workers, from right here in Mexico City. Those men were also like family! He is thankful that the people of Mexico have invited AEW into their home tonight! The fans cheer, and Hangman thanks them for the collaboration of AEW & CMLL. This is the best pro-wrestling in the world!
Hangman continues by saying that he also wants to make it known about AEW World Champion, Jon Moxley, that while Hangman is not wrestling tonight, and that he is not allowed ringside later tonight for the main event… He will find Moxley after! And Excalibur apologizes, the last part definitely can’t be translated for the sake of the broadcast. The fans still cheer Hangman on, they wanna see that #CowboyS*it. Hangman adds that once again, he is thankful for letting them be here in Arena Mexico. Now, let the action begin! The fans cheer as Hangman heads out, will The Cowboy get his hands on The Maniac before the night is over?
14 Man Tag: Hechicero, Volador Jr, Dax Harwood & The Don Callis Family VS Adam Cole, Brody King, Daniel Garcia, Bandido, Templario, Atlantis Sr. & Atlantis Jr!
Well, they always say, “Card subject to change.” Cash Wheeler is not able to make it, but Lance Archer and “The Predator,” Volador Jr, take his place! Then on the other side, the OG Atlantis jumps in! Will things only end up crazier to start off Grand Slam?
As Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway make their way out, #BigStoke has a mic and he has them cut the music. Stokely has some good news and some bad news. Bad news: Due to circumstances beyond his control, Cash Wheeler cannot be here tonight. That’s the bad news. The good news is, one half of FTR is here tonight in the great Dax the Ax! And hey, Stokely has been working on his Espanol all day. “Grassy ass, thank you!” Still messed it up… But with that, the rest of Team Rudo make their way out, starting with Volador, followed by the Don Callis y Hechicero.
On the other side, ROH World Champion Bandido leads the way for his team, followed by Templario and the Atlantis father and son. Then Brody King and Daniel Garcia follow, saving TNT Champion, Adam Cole, for last! The fans join in for the “BOOM!” and “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY!” These massive teams sort out, and Bandido steps up against the Alpha, Konosuke Takeshita. The fans fire up behind the Most Wanted while he and Konosuke circle. They approach, Konosuke trips Bandido and things speed up. Bandido stays low, then hurdles, but Konosuke leaps over.

Kazuchika Okada w/ Don Callis VS Mark Briscoe!
The Rainmaker has a Winner Takes All match with long-time rival, Kenny Omega, but he crossed a line! Not only has Okada joined Don Callis just to stick it to The Cleaner, but Okada hospitalized Omega with a brutal attack to the stomach!

Okada bails out and the fans boo. Briscoe waits on Okada while commentary tells Callis he and Okada committed the most despicable thing in all of wrestling. Callis of course says it was the most shrewd tactical move in the history of wrestling. Okada takes his time returning into the ring, and then he circles with Briscoe.

Okada fakes the chop, and pats Briscoe on the shoulders. The fans are torn, but Briscoe kicks Okada and TOSSES him!

The ref counts again, Briscoe stops at 4, and he whips corner to corner. Okada reverses but Briscoe goes up and out.
Okada runs up but Briscoe blocks a shot to ROCK Okada! Briscoe then RAMS into Okada, throws him out of the ring, and then DIVES! Direct hit and the fans fire up!

The fans boo as Okada aims with the belt! BELT SHOT to the ribs!! And then BELT SHOT to the head!! Callis & Okada stomp away on Briscoe, then they leave him behind. Another message sent to not just Kenny Omega but to anyone who would dare defy them. Will Okada go from Continental Champion to Unified Champion after going All In?
MJF w/ The Hurt Syndicate VS Mistico!
The Scumbag only ever does or uses something when it benefits him, and being extremely patriotic for the United States only seems to happen when he wants to stick it to someone not from the United States. MJF waves Ol’ Glory while he, MVP, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin walk down to the ring, but will he have to wave the white flag of surrender here tonight? Or will MJF somehow screw over the arguably greatest and most beloved man in CMLL?
In fact, to counter MJF being an American idiot, Mistico takes off his Sin Cara mask to reveal the colors of Mexico’s flag and therefore the colors of his people. He also has Me Muero as his theme, and the fans all know that one! The bell rings and the two circle while the fans rally behind Mistico. The two tie up, MJF SHOVES Mistico away, and then MJF soaks up the heat. MJF mockingly claps and then says up theirs! MVP tells MJF to worry about Mistico, not the fans. The fans tell MJF off and MJF tells them to shut up. MJF and Mistico tie up, Mistico SHOVES MJF, and Mistico eggs MJF on! MJF gets up, he and Mistico circle again, and they tie up. MJF kicks low and grins.
MJF brings Mistico around to headlock but Mistico fires body shots. Mistico powers up and out, then CHOPS! Mistico winds up and the fans rally, and he knuckle locks before he CHOPS again! Mistico goes up, up, and he tightrope walks to FLYING ARM-DRAG! The fans fire up as Mistico then hits a CODE RED! Cover, TWO! MJF bails out but Mistico builds speed! Mistico handsprings to fake MJF out! MJF thinks he’s smooth for running away, but then MVP tells him to focus on Mistico, not on the fans. MJF says he knows, and he eggs on Mistico. Mistico runs out there to chase MJF, but then the Hurt Syndicate stands in the way!
The fans boo, Mistico wags his finger, and he tells them to part. MJF runs up to ROCK Mistico first! The fans boo but MJF high-fives his guys. MJF says, “Easy! Too easy!” MJF puts Mistico in the ring, smirks while the fans call him more names. MJF swivels his hips, then runs up, but Mistico dodges the knee drop! Mistico runs up to RANA! The fans fire up and Mistico has MJF in a corner. MJF wants mercy, but Mistico says nope! Mistico runs up, but MJF YANKS him into buckles! MJF stomps away on Mistico, then goes to the other end to stand on the corner. MJF soaks up heat as he does the Pledge of Allegiance!
The fans boo, and MVP again reprimands MJF, he needs to be about business, not about trolling! MJF goes back to Mistico, drags him up, and he brings Mistico around, but Mistico JAWBREAKERS! Mistico runs, hops on, but MJF stops Code Red to reel Mistico in! POWER BREAKER! Cover, TWO! Mistico survives, MVP says this is still fine, and Grand Slam goes picture in picture. MJF sits Mistico up, and he pulls at the mask! MJF’s lucky this is an AEW based event, CMLL rules say this is tantamount to a disqualification! MJF rips at the eyehole, then clamps on a chinlock. MJF grinds Mistico down but Mistico endures.
Mistico fights while the fans tell MJF off again. Mistico rises up, fires body shots, then runs to ROCK MJF! Mistico fires forearms but MJF throat chops! MJF TOSSES Mistico out, distracts the ref, and the Hurt Syndicate attacks! BARRIER BACKBREAKER from Shelton! Shelton shoves Mistico back into the ring, MJF covers, TWO! Mistico is still in this but the ref is a bit suspicious of the Hurt Syndicate. MVP defends their innocence, and MJF puts Mistico on ropes. MJF CHOKES Mistico, the ref counts, and MJF stops at 4. This lets Lashley CHOKE Mistico and throw hands! The Hurt syndicate gets away with more, and MJF covers, TWO!
MVP tells fans to callete, they saw nothing! MJF stalks Mistico, stomps him on the foot, then has him on the ropes. MJF stomps him more, then soaks up heat. MJF drags Mistico up, scoops and carries him, then SLAMS him down! MJF huffs ‘n’ puffs while Grand Slam returns to single picture. MJF sits Mistico back up, runs the ropes, and then just steps up to pelvic thrust! The fans boo and Mistico is pissed now! MVP says no more trolling, MJF, he’s already told him that! MJF ROCKS Mistico, but Mistico eggs him on! MJF ROCKS Mistico, CLUBS him again and again, but then Mistico blocks to fire off forearms! And KICKS, SOBATS and KICKS!
The fans fire up with Mistico, but MJF BITES Mistico’s mask! MJF whips, Mistico reverses, then he ducks ‘n’ dodges to handspring and BACK ELBOW! The fans fire up and Mistico aims from a corner. But MJF runs up! Mistico dodges, runs back in, but MJF puts him on the apron. Mistico GAMANGIRIS! The fans fire up, Mistico springboards, CROSSBODY!

The fans are thunderous as both men are down! The ring count starts while the fans cheer, “ESTA LUCHA! <THIS IS WRESTLING!>”
The fans fire up as Mistico puts MJF back in the ring. Mistico then springboards again, SWANTON BOMB! MJF sputters into the drop zone and Mistico goes up the corner! MOONSAULT, but MJF moves! Mistico rolls through as best he can, and he SNAP POWERSLAMS! Cover, TWO!! MJF survives, MVP is frustrated on his behalf, but Mistico covers again, TWO! MJF is still in this but the fans are still behind Mistico. Mistico stands MJF up and CHOPS! The fans rally, Mistico runs, but MJF SPITS in Mistico’s face! Mistico is pissed, but MJF dodges the haymaker! Mistico blocks MJF’s kick, but MJF POKES Mistico in the eyes!
MJF runs, but Mistico SUPERKICKS! MJF rebounds to FOREARM! Mistico rebounds to hop on, DESTROYER!! MJF staggers but he SUPERKICKS back! Cover, TWO!! Mistico survives, and both men are showing us why they were each record-setting champions in their companies! The fans rally up more and more, “ESTA LUCHA!” MVP talks with Lashley & Shelton, and MJF rises up. MJF goes to the apron, and then up the ramp? Is MJF quitting? Mistico rushes up after MJF, tilt-o-whirl and- NO, MJF stops La Mystica to hit a TOMBSTONE on the stage!! The ref hurries to check Mistico while the fans go nuts!
MVP hurries to check on MJF and tells him to get up. MJF grabs the ref and drags him away to the ring. MJF now wants the win by count out! The count begins, the fans count along, and Mistico is still down at tres. MJF lies down to mock Mistico, but Mistico rises at cinco! The fans are thunderous as Mistico fires himself up, and he runs down the ramp to then slide into the ring at nueve! The fans are thunderous and MJF is stunned! MJF covers his ears to block out the chants for Mistico, but then he drags Mistico to a corner. MJF calls his shot, goes up the corner, but Mistico springs up! GAMANGIRI! GAMANGIRI! And GAMANGIRI!!
Mistico fires up, GAMANGIRIS again, then he goes up top! Mistico steadies himself, brings MJF up, and hits a SUPER SPANISH FLY!! Mistico crawls to the cover, TWO!!!

The fans are electric as Mistico survives! “ESTA LUCHA!” as MJF and the ref argue now. MJF then runs up to LOW BLOW Mistico!??!
Winner: Mistico, by disqualification
Typical MJF throws a tantrum with that blatant breaking of the rules! The fans boo, the ref reprimands, but then MJF SHOVES the ref down! That’ll be a fine, but MJF just rains down fists on Mistico! Lashley & Shelton join in! The fans boo as the Hurt Syndicate mugs Mistico! Then MJF threatens to do it! He grins, and he grabs Mistico’s mask! MJF SNATCHES it away!! The fans are furious as MJF holds up his trophy, and then puts it on! MJF flips everyone off while wearing Mistico’s mask, but here come Bandido, Templario y Titan! They won’t let this disrespect go unpunished! In fact, who is that climbing up the corners?! Kevin Knight & “Speedball” Mike Bailey are here!!
The fans fire up as Hurt Syndicate turns around, DOUBLE MISSILE DROPKICKS from #JetSpeed! MJF freaks out, and he gets DOUBLE SUPERKICKS for it! The Hurt Syndicate hurries away, Bailey gets Mistico his spare mask while MJF retreats wearing the real one. Mistico still won this match, but will he and his amigos make sure to get some payback?
4 Million Pesos Fatal 4 Way: Ricochet VS Mascara Dorada VS Holo.grm VS Lio Rush!
The One & Only is still looking for someone, anyone, to be worthy of following him on his journey to gold. Maybe having an extra $210K will help that? Or will someone else cash in big with a Grand Slam?
The bell rings and the four watch each other. Ricochet tries to bond with Bryce Remsburg over being bald but Bryce isn’t having it. Ricochet and the others all approach center, but then Lio says forget this. Lio goes to a corner to soak up heat, and Ricochet talks it over with the luchadores. They all step up and Lio sees he is surrounded. Lio says hold on, let’s take it easy. But then Ricochet sucker punches Dorada! Ricochet stomps away on Dorada, Lio DECKS Hologram and stomps him, too! The fans boo but Ricochet and Lio soak up the heat. They shake hands and trade luchadores. Then they coordinate, and they run corner to corner to trade again, LARIATS in the corners!
Lio then feeds Hologram to Ricochet for another LARIAT! Lio runs in and LARIATS Dorada! Feed to Ricochet’s LARIAT! The fans boo but Ricochet & Lio soak it up. Ricochet & Lio get the luchadores up and out of the ring, then they mock the fans clapping. Ricochet & Lio both build speed, but the luchadores are back! DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Dorada sets up, Hologram runs, and Dorada pops Hologram up for an ARABIAN PRESS ARM-DRAG! Lio is sent away, Hologram dodges Ricochet and Dorada SUPERKICKS Now Hologram returns the favor so that Dorada can ARABIAN PRESS ARM-DRAG Ricochet!
The fans fire up as Ricochet tumbles into Lio at the corner. Dorada runs and rolls off Hologram’s back so Hologram can SPLASH both Ricochet & Lio! Then Dorada runs in for a CYCLONE SPLASH! Then Dorada gives Hologram a boost so he can DOUBLE DROPKICK Ricochet & Lio outta the ring! That leaves Hologram and Dorada to square off. The fans fire up as they go forehead to forehead, and then they speed up! Only for Ricochet and Lio to trip them both up! The fans boo as Lio RAMS Dorada into railing on one side and Ricochet THROWS Hologram into railing on the other! Ricochet soaks up heat while Lio rains down fists on Dorada.

Will The CEO only add to her treasury when she and- Wait, speaking of Toni Storm, she’s on the tron! “She’s the kind of woman who always has money on her mind and someone else on her lips. She’s the kind of woman mother takes home to you. With thighs as big as the world and long as a wet dream. One thing she did know how to hold the gold, and not the Acapulco kind, either. She had a date with a Chief Executive Officer who wanted a kiss, but one belt too many.
“Deepthroat some tabasco, baby, it’s time to turn up the heat. There was one chance in a million she would bump into her past, but like everything out of the past, it was all behind her now.” The fans cheer as the noir narration ends, because surprise! That’s… Mina Shirakawa? Because Toni Storm sneaks into the ring from the crowd! The fans fire up as the lady in red takes a sniff of the gold.

The fans boo and Mone scrambles away through the streamers! One lucky fan gets Mone to hug her as she cowers in fear. Toni grabs a mic to shout, “Let the games begin~!” Toni revels in the streamers while Mone pulls at her hair in frustration! Will the AEW Women’s World Championship be the one belt Mone doesn’t take?

But there’s no running from what’s coming! 24 days remain before All In, will they be the last 24 days Moxley has as champion?
My Thoughts:
Awesome night for AEW’s first show in Mexico, even with things going about how I expected. For one, Mone of course won the title, because why else would they even do this match if not to give her one more belt? Though, what’s wild is that she picked up another belt without much hype or press from AEW. I guess European Wrestling Alliance hopes this gets them some attention. But good stuff with Toni Storm’s noir video and the sneak attack. And I would hope Toni retains the title at All In to keep Mone from going Ultimo Dragon just yet.
Cash Wheeler and Claudio Castagnoli both had travel issues, so I understand subbing people in. But did a 12 Man Tag really need to become a 14 Man Tag for it? And seeing as how I don’t cover CMLL’s own programming, I have NO idea why Atlantis Senior & Junior are getting booed. Is it a “Cena Wins LOL” situation where Junior is winning too much? That’s the only thing I can really think of offhand. But naturally, the Faces of that match won, as The Don Callis Family was rolling last week and needed humbling. I would think we still get Adam Cole VS Kyle Fletcher 2 now, and maybe Kyle wins the title so that the Don Callis Family has something.
Although, Callis seems to be bringing Okada into the fold for whatever reason, so he could end up bringing the “Unified” Continental & International Championship to the family. Okada VS Briscoe was great, and naturally Okada got the win. Mistico VS MJF was great stuff, up until MJF gave up and gave Mistico the win there. I know MJF loves getting heat, but him being the first man to snatch Mistico’s mask away like that is some HUGE heat. Also, I think I said it way back during some feud Penta had in AEW, but are masks really sacred if they’re willing to let them get ripped, stretched, and even yanked away? Or has that been lucha libre kayfabe all along? Either way, great stuff with JetSpeed and the other luchadores showing up, lots of matches set up with that.
Great Fatal 4 Way, and great win for Hologram to stay undefeated, but I will again criticize needing to do money prizes for these things. They should’ve set Hologram up for a title match twice over by now but TK is apparently making Hologram his top undefeated guy. Like if Goldberg was more than just big and strong and could actually do stuff… Also, while they obviously didn’t work together the entire time, I just feel like Ricochet having Lio Rush & Action Andretti become his crew (what with them being CRU and all) is the right move. Or perhaps this story of finding a faction is going to be an ongoing gag that no one likes Ricochet and would never follow him.
Then a great 10 Man Tag main event, though a little redundant considering Anarchy in the Arena was only a few weeks ago. Still good stuff for everybody, especially Mortos since he got to sub in for Claudio. Of course Marina gets involved so that the Heels win, but great stuff with Hangman going after Moxley. Hangman did a great job in his promo speaking Espanol to show respect to the fans. Naturally, Moxley gets away, that’s his whole thing. I really hope Ospreay, Swerve and The Opps keep the Death Riders and Bucks at bay so Hangman doesn’t get screwed over at All In. It’d be garbage if, after all this time and energy, it doesn’t pay off with Hangman as the triumphant hero.
My Score: 9/10
