PLAY BY PLAY

Nashville’s own HARDY is here!

The country music star is in the ring, and he welcomes Nashville to Friday Night SmackDown. Give a warm welcome back to the Phenomenal One, AJ STYLES! The fans fire up as Styles makes his return to SmackDown after four months since Clash at the Castle! Styles high-fives fans as he goes to the ring, with a new song to boot. The fans cheer on Styles while he grabs a mic, and that energy pumps him right up! Styles soaks it in a little longer, then says, “I have missed you guys so much. And it’s only fitting that I’m here in Nashville, Tennessee tonight. This is where it all started for AJ Styles.

“And over the past couple months, I’ve done a lot of things that I regret. Things I may not be forgiven for. But I’m not here to talk about the past. I’m talking about tonight, and rebuilding the legacy of AJ Styles.” The fans fire up for that! Styles knows there are guys who don’t like him, and he doesn’t blame ’em. But they’re also guys who need to be reminded that this is still The House That AJ Styles Built! Wait, Carmelo Hayes makes his way out! Melo tells Styles that after everything Styles has done, it’s no surprise there isn’t a long line of guys to welcome him back. But that’s okay, because Melo has taken it upon himself to do that.

Melo goes to the ring while fans boo, but Melo says he doesn’t need to reintroduce himself. Styles knows who this is. This is H1M, Carmelo Hayes, the man who beat Andrade three times, and the one who’s been holding it down while Styles has been gone. The fans boo but Melo says believe it or not, he’s actually a huge fan of Styles. He loves old timers like Styles! And Melo is sure Styles is going to announce the giant Legends contract he just signed, which he deserves. But if we’re talking things deserved, lets’ talk about Melo for a minute. The fans boo more but Melo says a guy like him, who deserves to be US Champion, not LA Knight and not Andrade.

Styles says if it’s okay with Melo, here’s some friendly advice. Styles has been in the ring with Knight, and Knight is relentless. The fans cheer “YEAH!” and Styles says Knight came to Styles’ house. “YEAH!” Styles and Knight had a match at WrestleMania. “YEAH!” Melo stops Styles there and says he doesn’t need advice. Melo doesn’t take advice… from quitters. The fans boo but Styles says okay, he earned that one. But Melo thinks he’s that good? He is. If he were that good, if Melo was H1M, wouldn’t he be US Champion by now? Melo says if Styles was still so phenomenal, then he’d be WWE Champion now.

The fans chant “He’s Not Him!” and Melo gets annoyed. Styles says how about this. Melo is in gear, Styles is in gear, they’re in the ring, this is Nashville, so why don’t they fight right here and right now? The fans like that idea! Melo puts his sunglasses and says, “Nah, I’m good.” Melo goes to leave, but here comes Knight! The fans fire up as The Mega Star stands on stage, mic in hand, and says, “LEMME TALK TO YA!” Knight says ain’t this a familiar sight! Someone wants to fight Melo, and what’s he do? He wants to run away! But Styles, Knight won’t pretend like they’re friends. They’ve been through it all!

And to be honest, the last time we saw Styles, he was misleading Knight, misleading the world, saying that he was gonna retire, then he made a liar of himself! So Knight has nothing to say to Styles. But look at this. Knight sees Melo, saying he deserves this, he’s H1M! Well yeah, he’s him! As in the guy getting stomped out here tonight! The only question is, there are two options. First: Knight can basically go down there, punch Melo in the mouth four or five times, head out to Broadway, have some drinks and a good night. Or: Styles, well, it seems like he made a challenge to Melo, Melo wasn’t ready to take it, so Knight can go make Melo take it.

So if Melo can beat AJ Styles right here and now, Knight will make a case to Aldis that Melo can get the shot he so thinks he deserves at the US Championship! But regardless, the chances are, Melo gets stomped out, Knight still goes out to have a sip, and when it’s all said and done, tell you what? Everybody’s still saying “L A KNIGHT! YEAH!” Now let’s get a referee to get this done! The Mega Star is calling the shots, but will Melo end up winning that title shot? The ref is here so we’re about to see!

 

A search is on.

The sirens are blaring and the engines are revving, but just who are we looking for? “Coming Soon…”

 

Carmelo Hayes VS AJ Styles!

SmackDown returns and the bell rings. Melo and Styles circle, tie up, and Melo throws Styles aside. Melo eggs Styles on but the fans boo. Knight watches from ringside as Styles and Melo reset. They tie up, Styles clinches for a BACKBREAKER! Melo goes to ropes, Styles fires hands and CHOPS! Styles CHOPS Melo again, then whips Melo. Melo reverses to kick and CLUB Styles, then KICK him again! Melo fires hands, then facelocks. Melo puts Styles in a corner to CHOP! Melo pie faces Styles, CHOPS again, but Styles turns things around to CHOP and CHOP and CHOP! The fans fire up and Melo drops to his knees.

Styles whips Melo, Melo reverses to ELBOW him! The fans rally for Styles as he reverses a whip. Styles hurdles, drops, and DROPKICKS! Melo checks his teeth and bails out of the ring. Styles storms up to ropes but the ref has him stay back. Melo rises, Styles eggs him on, and Melo takes his time going to the apron. Styles storms up but Melo slips away again. The fans boo but Melo says he does this on his time. Melo steps in, then kicks low! Melo CLUBS Styles, taunts the fans, then whips. Styles holds ropes, ELBOWS back, then goes up to QUEBRADA! Melo gets under, comes back, CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO!

Melo grins as he drags Styles up and reels him in. Melo snap suplexes, covers, TWO! Styles stays in this but Melo drags him up to TOSS him out! The fans boo but Melo paces. Styles rises up, Melo soaks heat from a corner, but Styles is on the apron. Melo storms over, ROCKS Styles, then DECKS him! Styles goes to the floor, Melo slips out and brings him up. Melo RAMS Styles into the desk! Knight stands up to stare Melo down, the fans rally up, and SmackDown goes to break.

SmackDown returns again and Melo has Styles down with a HALF CRAB! Styles endures and the fans rally up. Styles crawls over to the ROOPEBREAK! Melo lets off, but then yanks on the leg! Styles kicks Melo away with the good leg, then kicks him again. Styles rises, fires the Phenomenal Blitz, and that LIRAT! The fans fire up as Styles SLIDING FOREARMS! The fans fire up while Styles grits his teeth. Melo goes to a corner, Styles runs in, and hits a LARIAT! Styles brings Melo out to fireman’s carry, USHIGOROSHI! But on the bad leg! Both men are down, but the fans rally up. Styles goes to a corner, the ref says call it!

Winner: Carmelo Hayes, by referee stoppage

The fans boo, Styles is furious with himself, but injuries can’t be helped. Styles storms off, just barely walking on that leg. But as the announcement is made, Knight gives Melo a B F T! The Mega Star told Melo if he won, he’d talk to Aldis, but Knight is letting Melo know this is about as close as he’s getting to the belt. Will Knight give H1M that title shot just to hit it ‘n’ quit it?

 

Dumpster Match: Chelsea Green VS Mia Yim!

The Hot Mess said Michin is nothing but trash, but she’s been talking so much trash, she has to be full of it herself. Who will be feeling down in the dumps after this one?

While Chelsea is dressed like a waste management Barbie, Mia is bringing the toys: a trash can full of kendo sticks! The bell rings and Chelsea is already asking Mia to show mercy. Mia does, by throwing her a kendo stick. Now they’re even. Chelsea swings, Mia dodges and she SMACKS away on Chelsea! Then Mia DROPKICKS Chelsea out of the ring! The fans fire up as Mia runs to DIVE! Down goes Chelsea and the fans fire up! Mia pushes Chelsea in the ring, then goes looking for more goodies. Mia brings out a cookie sheet, a chair, and another trash can! And just as fans want, a TABLE! The fans cheer as Mia puts this table in the ring.

Chelsea dives but Mia SAMCKS her with a cookie sheet! Mia puts Chelsea back in, goes up a corner, and then MISSILE DROPKICKS! The fans fire up while Chelsea  tumbles out. Mia hurries, and she fireman’s carries! Chelsea clings to the dumpster, slips free of Mia, then SHOVES Mia into the side! Chelsea SUPERKICKS Mia, then STOMPS her into the side! Mia is down but the fans fire up, and SmackDown goes to break.

SmackDown returns and Chelsea has Mia on the apron. Chelsea storms up to ROCK Mia, and ROCKS her again! Mia wobbles, Chelsea runs, but Mia ducks under! Mia ROCKS Chelsea again and again, then steps in, TORNADO DDT! And then a GERMAN SUPLEX! Chelsea flounders around, but Mia wrenches her for EATE- NO! Chelsea holds ropes to stay up! Chelsea hops on, for a DESTROYER!! Even Chelsea is surprised! Chelsea TOSSES Mia into the dumpster! She just has to close it! Mia blocks the lid! The fans fire up as Mia powers out, and SMACKS Chelsea with a trash bag! And again! And again! Hefty, Hefty, Hefty!

Mia SMACKS Chelsea again, then climbs out of the dumpster. Mia SMACKS Chelsea more, pushes her into the ring, and fans still want the table to come into play. Mia looks, finds the cookie sheet, but Chelsea dodges! Chicken wings, turn, but Mia wrenches out! EAT DA FEET! Mia hurries to put the trash can around Chelsea! Payback for what Nia Jax did weeks ago! Mia goes up top, to SUPER SENTON on the can!! The fans are thunderous for Mia compacting the trash! And then Mia goes to the table! The fans fire up as Mia brings that around, puts it across the dumpster, she wants to go hardcore with this one!

The fans are thunderous again, but then here comes Piper! Piper CLOBBERS Mia while wearing a cowgirl hat and a full hazmat clean suit! Piper says yeehaw, then SENTONS! Then she runs up, CANNONBALL into the dumpster! Mia dodges disaster, and she hurries into the ring! Chelsea crawls out of the can, then runs up to BOOT Mia! Mia wobbles, Chelsea goes out to the apron! Chelsea drags Mia up, reels her in, but Mia fights the lift! Mia fires elbows, blocks a kick, and hoists Chelsea up! POWERBOMB THROUGH THE TABLE AND INTO THE DUMPSTER!!  Nashville is going wild as Mia rises up! Mia gets up, out, and CLOSES the lid! Mia wins!!

Winner: Mia Yim

The Head Baddie In Charge just took out the trash! The Hot Mess is gonna need a hot shower, maybe three or four, but she’ll never live down the embarrassment. As for Mia, will she make her way to the top of the Women’s Division no matter who she has to fight, or how she has to fight?

 

AJ Styles is checked out by medical.

The trainer tests his leg from knee to foot, and while Styles can move the leg, it is very painful. X-rays are going to be needed so Styles will be on his way to a Nashville hospital. Did the Phenomenal One’s comeback get cut short already?

 

Naomi prepares backstage.

Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill check on sis, and Naomi is ready to go. They know she’s gonna handle Tiffy Business cuz she’s always talking mess. But enough about Tiff, let’s talk about the beautiful titles Bianca & Jade won back. They shine them up, and Jade says after Naomi gets the W, “we” are going to turn it up in ATL! Huh? “We?” Yeah, they ain’t speaking French now. We three that is The Big 3, they ALL get to host Bad Blood! Naomi is all fired up for it! A-Town Stomp! Bayley joins in but that kinda ruins the mood.

The StrongEST Duo heads out, and Bayley says sorry for interrupting. Bayley just wants to go over what they talked about. Bayley will call out Nia and tell her to her face that Bayley wins at Bad Blood. And when Bayley does, Naomi is #1 contender. Bayley better. Bayley promises to bring the title to the after party. They hug it out, Bayley heads for gorilla, but will The Role Model regret calling out The Queen of the Ring?

 

Bayley heads to the ring!

SmackDown returns and Nashville cheers as the former WWE Women’s Champion gives high-fives on the way out. Bayley gets a mic to say, “In just 24 hours, I have the opportunity to win the WWE Women’s Championship back. So I’m not gonna waste anyone’s time, I’ma get right to it. Nia Jax, I’m calling you out. I’m in your ring, Queen, you can even bring Tiffany. C’mon, I got something to say to your face.” The fans cheer, Bayley says lets go Queen Champ. Is this being on Tiffy Time? But here comes Nia and Tiffany, who is trying to be her own cowgirl Barbie. The two go right to the ring, and grab their own mics.

Nia says if Bayley has something to say, say it straight to her face. The fans boo but Bayley says that’s why she called  Nia out. Because for as long as Bayley has known Nia, Nia has never understood the significance of this title or what it stands for. What it means for the fans, for the people like Bayley who grew up loving the WWE, who grew up wanting nothing more than to hold this title. Bayley grew up watching women like Molly Holly, Victoria, Beth Phoenix, Natalya, Trish Stratus, Lita. They all made this title mean they were larger than life, more than human. And that ain’t Nia.

But as much as it pains Bayley to say, there is one thing that those women weren’t. They’ve never had a dominant run like Nia has had. Nia is going on to become one of, if not THE, most dominant women in WWE history. The fans are torn but Nia nods. Bayley says the facts still are, there are two people in the WWE that can take this title from Nia. One is Bayley tomorrow night 1v1 at Bad Blood, which she plans on doing! The other… is Tiffy! The fans cheer that but Tiffy is wary. Bayley says it isn’t because Tiffy’s good enough, it’s the briefcase. The moment Tiffy gets tired of Nia talking down and berating her, Tiffy will smack Nia in the back, cash in, and become the NEW champion! Wham bam, thank you ma’am!

The fans cheer but Tiffy speaks up. Is Bayley saying Tiff isn’t good enough? That the only reason Tiff can win is because of the MITB briefcase? Tiff doesn’t need the briefcase to beat Nia. Nia says, “Um, excuse me?” Tiff realizes she spoke out of turn! She would never! Bayley has Tiff so angry right now! Y’know what, Pam?! Tiff says instead of sitting here and trying to break this duo up, why doesn’t Bayley bow down to the Queen of the Ring? Oh, wow, bow down to Nia? Tiff’s crazy. As much as Bayley doesn’t agree with how Nia conducts herself, Bayley respects how strong and dominant Nis is. Bayley has NO respect for Tiff!

Bayley would rather bow down to a queen than patronize a stupid b*tch!! Tiff gets mad and takes a swing! Bayley dodges and KNEES Tiff down! Nia CLOBBERS Bayley! And then CLOBBERS her again! The fans boo as Nia stands over Bayley, then runs, but Bayley avoids the senton! Bayley storms up on Nia now, and grabs Tiff’s briefcase! Bayley JAMS, CLUBS, and SMACKS Nia! Then RUNNING KNEE! Bayley picks up the belt and the fans cheer as she holds it up. Bayley sets it down on Nia, then leaves. But then Tiff gets up, grabs her briefcase, and stares Bayley down. Bayley says bet, because Tiff starts staring at Nia!

The fans fire up as Tiff thinks about it. The ref is here because Tiff’s match with Naomi is coming up, but is she going to do that? Nia sees Tiff, Tiff hesitates, and fans chant “CASH IT IN!” Tiff hesitates, and here comes Naomi! Will Nashville #FeelTheGlow? Or will it still be #TiffyTime tonight?

 

Chelsea and Piper regroup backstage.

The Hot Mess has yet to clean up, and Piper has a hard time not gagging from the smell. Pretty Deadly is there, and they almost fall over! What is that smell!? Their eyes are burning! Kit & Elton leave, Piper says don’t listen. A-Town Down Under pass by, and Theory thinks something’s wrong with their cake. Waller says no, mate, it’s Chelsea Green~! Angel & Berto pass by and they gag pretty bad, too. Piper says she’s not, whatever they just said. Aldis sees Chelsea and says sorry about that result, that must stink. Mia did her dirty with that. Sorry, he doesn’t wanna recycle these puns, but can he help her with anything? Other than a shower.

Chelsea is at a loss for words for once, and just storms off. Melo then walks over and tells Aldis he beat Styles “fair and square,” so where’s that deal with Knight? Melo thinks maybe they can fit it on Bad Blood, or even go to WrestleMania. Aldis asks if Melo’s really gonna say that with a straight face. The only thing Aldis cares about right now is checking on Styles. So Melo and Aldis can talk this out next week. Melo smells the lingering stench and wonders if it’s Aldis. Melo leaves, will he get the shot he wants?

 

Naomi VS Tiffany Stratton!

SmackDown returns and the bell rings. Naomi and Tiff tie right up, go around, and Tiff puts Naomi in a corner. The ref counts, Naomi pushes Tiff, but Tiff SLAPS back! Naomi runs up to THESZ PRESS! Naomi rains down fists, Tiff gets free, but Naomi bumps her off buckles. Naomi brings Tiff to another corner to bump off more buckles. Naomi RAMS into Tiff again and again, then lets off as the ref counts. Naomi HEEL KICKS Tiff, then snapmares so she can SLIDING LARIAT! The fans fire up and Naomi keeps moving. Tiff sits up, into a sliding SLEEPER! Tiff fights up, RAMS Naomi into a corner, and then RAMS her again!

The ref counts, Tiff lets off, then brings Naomi around to whip. Naomi slides under the lariat, taunts with a twerk, then mule kicks! Naomi front kicks, then FACEBUSTERS! Cover, TWO! Tiff survives but Naomi brings her up. Naomi TOSSES Tiff to the apron, has her in ropes, an d then holds her down for the HEAT- NO, Tiff powers out! Naomi KNEES Tiff back, brings her back in, and snap suplexes! Cover, TWO! Tiff is tougher than that but Naomi brings her up. Naomi TOSSES Tiff back out, has her again, but still no Heatseeker! Tiff ROCKS Naomi, HOTSHOTS her, then slingshots to KNEEBOARD! Cover, TWO!

The fans rally while Tiff grows frustrated, and she stalks Naomi to the apron. Naomi ROUNDHOUSES, then runs up, but Tiff LARIATS! Naomi falls to the floor, Tiff goes out after her. Tiff whips, Naomi reverses, but Tiff hops up. Naomi blocks a boot, spins Tiff around and ROCKS her in the back! And KICKS her! Naomi goes up, APRON LEG DROP! Naomi says deuces, and SmackDown goes to break.

SmackDown returns and Naomi has Tiff as a backpack, for a BACKPACK STUNNER! Both women are down and the fans rally up. Naomi rises, storms up and ROCKS Tiff! Tiff ROCKS Naomi, Naomi KICKS back! Tiff ROCKS Naomi, Naomi fires a flurry in return! Naomi whips, wrenches, and LEG LARIATS! Tiff staggers up, into a DROPKICK! Naomi keeps moving, goes up and around to SLINGSHOT BULLDOG! Naomi kips up, the fans fire up, and Tiff sits up into the sliding SLAP! Naomi then headscissors to SPIKE Tiff! Cover, TWO! Tiff toughs it out but Naomi keeps cool. Naomi brings Tiff up, but Tiff fights the nelson!

Tiff whips Naomi, Naomi KICKS back! And kicks low! FACE- NO, Tiff handstands out! And basement DROPKICKS! Cover, TWO! Tiff is frustrated but the fans fire up! Tiff drags Naomi up, puts her in a corner and then on the top rope. Tiff climbs, but Naomi fires hands! Naomi HEADBUTTS Tiff down, then adjusts. CROSSBODY! But Tiff rolls through! Tiff shows off that Tiffy Strength! Fireman’s carry, but Naomi fights free! Naomi goes to a corner, Tiff blocks boots, but not the rebound ENZIGIRI! Tiff is down, Naomi goes up and up, SPLIT-LEG FLOP as Tiff moves! Tiff goes up and up to PRETTIEST MOONSAULT- NO, Naomi moves!

Naomi and Tiff are in corners, Tiff handsprings in, but Naomi ducks in time! Naomi waistlocks, Tiff fights, but Naomi full nelsons! But Tiff arm-drags free, has the cover, TWO! Naomi ghost pins, NAOMI WINS!

Winner: Naomi, by pinfall

Nashville feels the glow, and that means Naomi is rolling! Will Naomi get that promised title match with Bayley? Or will Nia & Tiffany both have different ideas?

 

The Bloodline walks ‘n’ talks.

Jacob Fatu says, “I LOVE my Tribal Chief! My Tongan brothers, they LOVE our Tribal Chief. Nashville, Tennessee, oh yeah, they LOVE our Tribal Chief. DIY, Street Profits, Cody Rhodes, hell, even Roman Reigns, will LOVE our Tribal Chief. And when you LOVE our Tribal Chief, you learn to RESPECT our Tribal Chief. And when you RESPECT our Tribal Chief, OH LAWD, you will WORSHIP our Tribal Chief. And if you don’t know how to do none of those three, at the end of the day, you will acknowledge the REAL Tribal Chief, Solo…!” Solo Sikoa steps up and says to acknowledge him.

With that, Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa are sent forward, will they defend not just the tag team championships but the honor of Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline? Or will there be new champions one way or another?

 

Tiffany returns backstage.

And Nia is there waiting. Nia tells Tiff, “If I didn’t know any better, I would think that you’re trying to tease me on when you’re trying to cash-in. Maybe you should focus on Liv Morgan’s Women’s World Championship match tomorrow night, because that’s a cash-in you would actually survive. Or… You can tell me right now that you’ll never betray me.” Tiff stammers, “Of course not, My Queen! After all, like, you are My Queen.” Nia leaves it at that, will Tiff take Nia up on that idea? Or will Tiff wait and see how things go tomorrow?

 

WWE Tag Team Championships Triple Threat Ladder Match: The Bloodline VS The Street Profits VS #DIY!

Winners: The Bloodline (still WWE Tag Team Championships)

The Guerrillas of Destiny didn’t even need help from Solo Sikoa or Jacob Fatu, they found a way to survive all on their own! Is this proof that no one will ever stop the dominant tyranny that is The Bloodline?


My Thoughts:

A great episode of SmackDown here to feed right into Bad Blood. Country star Hardy showing up just to introduce Styles was kinda weird, but good promo from Styles, Melo and Knight. Knight’s adlib style kinda stalled for a second but he got to the point that Melo could be facing him next. I would think Styles’ injury tonight was kayfabe to give a reason Styles isn’t right back in a title scene, and it gives Melo that false confidence thinking he deserves a title match. I would hope also that Andrade gets back in the mix. He and Melo are tied 3-3, we need “game 7” before either one goes for the title.

Great stuff in the Dumpster Match, and of course Piper got involved. But even with that and last week with Mia standing tall, she won here and that was a great surprise. Chelsea getting made fun of for the stink by the Heel tag teams of SmackDown was pretty funny, too. Good promo from Naomi with Bianca & Jade to now upgrade the hosting duties to The Big 3. I feel like this move could motivate something happening with a trio from Raw like Pure Fusion Collective or something to set up big stuff for next week, or even a tag title match like with Damage CTRL.

Great promo for Bayley, Nia and Tiffany to tease a Tiffy Turn. As I said before, to be different from SummerSlam, Tiff would have to go through with her cash-in, even if she waits for the match to be over and take advantage of a tired winner. Great win for Naomi over Tiff, great promo after where Nia tells Tiff not to cash-in, which could be all the more reason Tiffany does. And then great promo from Jacob Fatu to hype up not just the tag team main event for Bad Blood but the tag team ladder match here tonight.

That main event was an awesome, PLE worthy ladder match, but we should’ve figured Bloodline wasn’t losing the tag titles just yet. It could be a point of storytelling that, in a parallel to Roman Reigns’ height as champion, the leader of The Bloodline needs his faction more than they need him. Roman was always having The Usos save him, just as Solo is having The Guerrillas of Destiny save him. But The Usos were always able to win their tag matches, just as Tama & Loa did here. That parallel can be thrown at Solo to show he isn’t better than Roman, and that can upset him into losing. For that matter, we might still see Tama & Loa try to help tomorrow night at Bad Blood, proving that point.

My Score: 8.9/10

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!

The trios sort out and the War Dog for hire starts against the Sussex County Chicken. The bell rings and the two run to DOUBLE LARIAT!

The fans fire up and Briscoe high fives the front row while Dynamite goes picture in picture.

Briscoe high fives with Bailey and Willow, then goes back for Gabe. Briscoe CLAWS Gabe’s face, the ref sorts everyone else out, but Bailey sends Moxley into railing! Briscoe BITES Gabe on the forehead, then UPPERCUTS! Gabe flounders into the ring and Briscoe follows. Briscoe stands Gabe up to ROCK him with a right, and then he stomps Gabe into the corner.

The Swiss Terminator and Decoder once again do their part to tip the scales, and Moxley just riles up the fans more. Will nothing stop this reign of terror?

 

PROGRAMMING NOTE for Collision!

This Saturday, May 31st, Collision will air coast to coast on TNT at 8 PM Eastern, OR immediately following NBA Playoffs Game 6, but you can always stream on HBO Max!

 

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?

The American Ninja has no way forward to the finals, but he won’t stop fighting! Will he ruin Dia’s run at the top? Or will the Infinite Carat Diamond not crack under pressure?

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Master Wato VS Yoshinobu Kanemaru!

The Way of the Grandmaster fell in the main event of last round, but he still has a chance to be in the finals! Will he stay alive just a little longer? Or will the Heel Master pour some whiskey on Wato’s dreams?

Kanemaru then grabs a leg to YANK it! Kanemaru stomps Wato more, taunts him, then drags him back up. Kanemaru has the leg for the SHIN BREAKER! And then he turns Wato over, HALF CRAB!

The fans rally for Wato while he writhes but Kanemaru leaves him behind. The ref checks with Wato but Wato won’t let this stop him. The ring counts as Kanemaru waits on Wato.

Wait, what is SHO doing here?! The Murder Machine is in B Block, but the House of Torture boys will always help each other cheat! The ref keeps Sho back, but Yujiro Takahashi is also here! Tokyo Pimp slides the whiskey bottle to Kanemaru! Kanemaru CLUBS away on Wato’s leg with that bottle!! The fans boo as Wato can only suffer! Kanemaru puts even more pressure on the hold, and WATO TAPS!! Kanemaru wins!!

Winner: Yoshinobu Kanemaru, by submission (gains 2 points; Wato earns 0)

Kanemaru’s game plan to go after the legs was working well enough, he didn’t need the House’s help! But perhaps Kanemaru wanted to stoop to these lows in order to win! And now Sho & Yujiro help stomp away on Wato! But here comes Yoh! Direct Drive saves his tag partner and runs off The House! He even gets a chair! Yoh wants them to man up, but that’s not happening. But now, with Hiromu Takahashi having beat Wato and issuing the tag title challenge, and now Kanemaru winning tonight… Could we really be seeing such an odd couple as Timebomb & Heel Master going for the tag titles?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Kosei Fujita VS Clark Connors!

One down, two to go. Wato is out of the running after Kanemaru cut him off at the knees, so to speak. Will the Japanese Young Punk fight his way into the finals? Or will 100 Proof bring down even the mighty?

The Mighty Don’t Kneel, they don’t give up, and perhaps, they are still in this race! Will the Japanese Young Punk fight until the very end? Or will was this the last win he’ll get in BOSJ 32?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Hiromu Takahashi VS Robbie X!

It is apropos that the most decorated man, the FOUR-TIME BOSJ winner, is in the main event of the ninth and final round. If he wins, he moves on to potentially grabbing number five! But if he loses, it will be Kosei Fujita’s time to shine. Will Robbie take Hiromu to the X-treme? Or will the Ticking Timebomb still have time on the clock?

The bell rings and the fans rally for “HI-RO-MU! HI-RO-MU!” Robbie shrugs that off as he and Hiromu circle. They run up and DOUBLE LARIAT! They stay up, and Robbie ducks Hiromu’s elbow.

Robbie stomps Hiromu, then grabs a fan’s Hiromu towel to CHOKE Hiromu with it! Robbie throws it back at the fan, and in a way that towel is more valuable because it touched Hiromu. Robbie then drags Hiromu up to bring him to another section!

So what if he was the underdog? So what if he’s last place? So what if he replaced Bushi in the block? Robbie X just beat the most decorated Super Junior alive today! And that means the winner of A Block is KOSEI FUJITA! Hiromu is furious, but Fujita walks back out here to have the spotlight! Fujita and Hiromu cross paths, and Hiromu pats Fujita on the shoulder as he exits. Fujita goes to the ring, and Robbie invites him in given Robbie won the main event. Robbie tells Fujita to get this in his little brain: Robbie beat Fujita, he beat Hiromu, so… If Fujita wins this whole thing and beats El Desperado, do what is right!

Robbie wants the first championship match with Fujita! The fans like that, and Fujita nods in agreement. Robbie leaves, will Mr. X have his chance at gold? As for Fujita, he grabs the mic to say, “Sorry to those of you who may have wanted to hear more from Robbie X. But if I’m in the position of naming challengers, then I will give him the first title shot.” The fans applaud, and Fujita continues on. “I won this A Block.” The fans applaud that, too, and Fujita says he’ll take “all the hope, hate and then I’ll win. That’s all!” The Japanese Young Punk keeps it short and sweet, but will the Ichiban Sweet Boy become the Best of the Super Juniors?

 

Here are the FINAL A Block standings!

Kosei Fujita: 5-4, 10 points [FINALIST]
Hiromu Takahashi: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Master Wato: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Francesco Akira: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Clark Connors: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
KUSHIDA: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Ninja Mack: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Dragon Dia: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Yoshinobu Kanemaru: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Robbie X: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]


My Thoughts:

An awesome start to the ninth round, and it is always fun to have these final playoff scenarios sort out. Mack VS Dia was great, even for not affecting anything, and I really do hope these two guys become the next big thing. I figured Kanemaru would screw Wato over with help from Sho & Yujiro, and this definitely feeds into the tag title story that involves Hiromu. Fujita overcoming Connors and Robbie X getting the upset on Hiromu was all awesome stuff, and I like the gentlemen’s agreement that Robbie will be the lineal contender should Fujita win the title. B Block is going to be awesome, I’m sure, and there are all sorts of great choices for Fujita’s opponent.

My Score: 9.1/10
