Fatal 4 Way Tag: Grizzled Young Veterans VS The Gates of Agony VS The Kingdom VS The Dark Order!

After NJPW Fighting Spirit Unleashed last Friday, Zack Gibson & James Drake are now the NEW NJPW Strong Openweight Tag Team Champions! But does that mean they have to watch themselves against these three hungry teams? Or can they make it through like the grizzled veterans they are?

This Fatal 4 has only two teams legal at once, so Matt Taven steps up to Bishop Kaun. The fans rally, the two circle, and then Kaun trips up Taven! Kaun rains down fists but Taven guards. Kaun lets off, goes after Taven in the corner and CHOPS! Kaun whips, Taven goes up and over, then runs to slide under. Taven DROPKICKS Kaun down, then says, “IIIIII’M Matt Taven!” The fans cheer while Taven drags Kaun to his feet. Tag to Bennett, and the fans rally as Taven hits a SIT-OUT GOURD BUSTER! BOSTON BAYONET from Bennett! Cover, TWO! Kaun is tough but Bennett brings him up. Kaun CHOPS back!

Kaun tags Toa Liona, The Gates double whip but Bennett KICKS Liona away! Liona SUPERKICKS in return and Bennett staggers back into Kaun’s GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans are torn but Liona covers. Drake stomps Liona to break the cover, but it also makes Liona mad! Liona chases Drake, Drake slides out, and Gibson tags in! Liona seethes as GYV trick him. Liona reluctantly leaves while Gibson goes after Bennett. Bennett fights the suplex, then RAMS Gibson into the corner! Reynolds tags off Bennett, then he tags in Silver. The Dark Order double whip Gibson to then double drop toehold!

Gibson’s down, Dark Order rolls to BASEMENT DROPKICK SANDWICH! The fans fire up and Silver says, “I’m freakin’ jacked, baby!” The fans cheer as Silver whips Gibson to a corner. Gibson BOOTS in return, ELBOWS Reynolds, but then Silver dodges to KICK, KICK and KICK! Gibson headlocks, Drake tags in as Silver powers out. GYV drop, then trip Silver up to basement dropkick! And MAYHEM IN MOTION sends Reynolds flying! The fans are torn but Gibson goes out to scoop Reynolds. Drake adds the PLANCHA into the BACKBREAKER! Drake taunts Evil Uno but Uno tells him to just focus on the match.

Drake slides into the ring, fires hands on Silver, and he reels Silver in. Silver suplexes first! The fans fire up while Silver and Drake crawl. Tag to Gibson but Silver hot tags Taven! Taven rallies on GYV! SPLASH for Drake, HEEL KICK for Gibson, GAMANGIRI for Drake! Taven dodges Gibson, then reels him in, MOONLIGHT DRIVE! The fans fire up with Taven and he tags in Bennett. Taven whips Bennett to ROCK Gibson! Taven adds a SPLASH, then feeds Gibson to the DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! JUST THE TIP o’ the knee! Cover, The Gates break it! The Kingdom is mad with The Gates, and the brawl is on!

The fans fire up, but the Gates get the edge! The Kingdom dodges the lariats to DOUBLE SUPERKICK! But the Gates stay standing! They take another swing, and DOUBLE LARIATS connect! The fans fire up and the Gates pop Bennett up, OPEN THE GATES! The fans rally as Bennett ends up in a corner. Taven and Drake drag the Gates out to THROW them into steel steps! Gibson rolls Bennett! TWO! Silver tags in and he DUMPS Gibson out of the ring! Taven runs to a corner, triangle jump, but Silver ROCKS him first! Silver CANNONBALLS onto Gibson, UPPERCUTS Kaun, BOOTS Liona, then dodges Drake!

Reynolds BOOTS Drake down and the fans fire up! Silver climbs a corner, leaps at Taven, but Taven dodges! Bennett is there to reel Silver in! Taven goes up, HAIL MARY PILEDRIVER!! Cover, Kingdom wins!!

Winners: The Kingdom, by pinfall

It was fast ‘n’ furious, but it was also undisputed! Taven & Bennett get this big win, but the chase for tag team gold is never ending. Taven & Bennett do show respect to The Gates with a Code of Honor handshake, will these two teams be fighting for that number one spot?

 

Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara VS Love Doug & TJ Crawford!

The Natural & The Spanish God are still itching for that fight with The Righteous, but for now, they’re tuning up and sharpening their edge. Will the Sons of Texas be ready for ol’ Dutch & Vincent? Or will they be shot through the heart by The Real-Life Cupid & Windy City Kid?

The teams sort out and Dustin starts against Doug. They uphold the Code of Honor, and the bell rings. The fans rally for Dustin as he and Doug tie up. Dustin headlocks, Doug powers out but Dustin runs Doug over. Cover, ONE, but Dustin clamps onto Doug’s arm. Dustin wrenches, but Doug fires hands! Doug puts Dustin in the corner, fires off hands, then stomps! Tag to TJ, he throws hands, then whips. Dustin CLOBBERS TJ! The fans fire up, Dustin whips TJ to the corner, and he adds a SPLASH! Tag to Sammy and Sammy CROSSBODIES! Cover, ONE! Sammy feeds TJP to Dustin’s kick! “Not today, baby!” UPPERCUT! Sammy adds an ENZIGIRI!

TJ bails out, the fans fire up, and Doug runs in. Sammy dodges, hurdles, then backflips over to DROPKICK Doug! Sammy kips up so smooth and the fans fire up again. Doug & TJ regroup, Sammy builds speed, and Sammy FLIES! Down goes Doug & TJ and Sammy blows a kiss to his wife and daughter. The fans fire up and Sammy brings TJ back into the ring. Sammy step sin but TJ ROCKS him! TJ stomps a mudhole, then he whips corner to corner. Sammy stops himself, ELBOWS TJ back, then goes up to FLYING CUTTER! TJ sputters, Dustin adds a SHINING WIZARD! Sammy fires the fans up for the STANDING MOONSAULT!

The fans fire up but here comes Doug! Dustin gets Doug for a SNAP POWERSLAM! Dustin brings Doug up, Sammy has TJ, and in stereo, we GO TO HOSPITAL and FINAL RECKONING! Cover, the Sons of Texas win!

Winners: Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara, by pinfall

The fans cheer, but THE RIGHTEOUS attack! Dutch beats down Dustin while Vincent is after Sammy! The fans boo but Sammy gives hands back. Dutch CLOBBERS Sammy! The fans boo more, but Vinnie fireman’s carries Sammy. Dutch fireman’s carries Vinnie for the DOUBLE DUTCH DEATH VALLEY! The fans are booing as hard as they can but Dutch whips Dustin to bring him into the BLACKHOLE SLAM! The Righteous still aren’t done, as Dutch brings out the cowbell! An American Dream signature is now going to be Dustin’s demise! COWBELL TO THE HEAD!! The Righteous stand tall over the ROH World Tag Team Champions, will this be how it is when the gold is on the line?

 

AEW shares last night’s interview with The Learning Tree.

Renee Paquette was with Chris Jericho, Bryan Keith & “Big Bill” Morrissey as she brings up Tomohiro Ishii officially challenging Jericho for the ROH World Championship. It will be in two weeks, Dynamite in Chicago, will Jericho accept? Bill says, “Challenge? As the Learning Tree always says, a person’s true self is not seen in moments of glory, but in moments of hardship and challenge.” Jericho says, “Well said, Redwood. And thanks, Renee. Ishii, I’ve got a soft spot for you because we’ve known each other for almost 30 years, ever since we were both working for Genshiro Tenryu in WAR in Japan.

“Albeit, I was a huge main event star, and you were nothing more than a rookie, a Young Boy. You used to get me coffee, carry my bags, and even wash my back in the shower. Hahaha! But Ishii, you’ve gone on to become one of the toughest and best pro-wrestlers in the world. I should know, because it was only two years ago that we had a classic match, one of my favorite in AEW, and one of the toughest I’ve ever had, also in Chicago. So it’s only apropos that in two weeks on Dynamite, we’re gonna face each other. I do accept your challenge, Ishii, for the ROH World Championship, Jericho VS Ishii.

“But I’ve gone on to bigger and better things, as well. Because now, I’ve become the Nueve.” Jericho, Keith & Bill all hold up nine fingers. Jericho reminds us he is a NINE-TIME world champion, and a TWO-TIME ROH World Champion. So now, Jericho will invoke the glory and courage of great ROH champions of the past, like Jay Briscoe. And he’ll do that while teaching Ishii a lesson that he won’t forget, ever again. Keith says in the Windy City, Jericho blows Ishii’s dumb ass away! Jericho says truer words have never been spoken. Thanks, guys! But will Jericho have very little to be thankful after the Stone Pitbull takes a bite out of him?

 

Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.

Lexy Nair says this is another Emergency Minion Empowerment Meeting, aka MEM. They need to see if one Billie Starkz is ready to apologizes to their Minion Overlord, the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena. Lexy cues Billie, and Billie says just wants to tell Athena… Oh, look at that, Athena steps in, ready to hear this. Athena looks Billie up and down, and can’t believe that is what Billie wore to a MEM. It looks like grandma’s nursing home crafts project. Billie rolls her eyes and Athena says to not worry about Minion 400,237 & 3/4ths, if that is who Billie decides to be. What about London? China? India?

Lexy tries to explain but in steps Leila Grey. She brushes Billie aside to say she heard Athena is looking for the most top tier talent from around the world. Well look no further, because there is no one above Top Flight. Athena and Lexy l augh right at Leila. Wow, Top Flight’s flight attendant? Oh, Bestie, this is actually perfect. They can showcase Athena before her world tour begins. So uh, what was her name again? Lei… Leilani? Leila says Athena knows her name. Oh, yes, of course, Miss Baddie.

But hey, next week, Athena challenges Leila on the Proving Grounds, where Athena will prove she is the best ROH champion, as well as the most violent and most dominant champion in ALL of pro-wrestling! And she’ll make an example out of Leila. What’s she say to that? Leila says you’re on. Athena says good~! Let’s go, Bestie. Athena & Lexy go one way, Billie scoffs and goes the other. Will Leila last the ten minute time limit to earn her golden ticket? Or is this “Athena World Tour” taking off without her?

 

ROH Rewind – ROH Women’s World Championship Proving Grounds Match: Athena VS Hyan!

The Fallen Goddess is now the longest reigning champion in ALL of ROH history, but let us look back in time to the Forever Champion’s first Proving Ground match!

The Code of Honor is upheld, though maybe mockingly. The bell rings and we’re on the clock. Hyan and Athena step up, and then Athena DECKS Hyan! Athena celebrates, then she fires off on Hyan in the corner! Fans boo but Athena lets off as the ref counts. Athena snapmares and KICKS Hyan, then asks if the fans want one more. Fans do, but Athena just covers. TWO, but Athena drags Hyan up. Athena hooks Hyan up and clamps on a neck wrench. Hyan endures, fans rally, and Hyan throws elbows. Hyan rolls Athena up, TWO! Oklahoma Roll, TWO! Hyan UPPERCUTS Athena down and fans fire up!

Hyan runs to PENALTY KICK! And PENALTY KICK! Hyan fires up, HAT TRICK!! Athena is down and fans fire up, Hyan covers, ONE!! Athena toughs it out, but Hyan CLUBS away. Hyan runs, but into a BLACK HOLE SLAM! Athena then dribbles Hyan off the mat! Athena CHOKES Hyan, but she lets off as the ref counts. Athena and the ref argue, but Athena calms down. Hyan sits up, Athena drags her up, but Hyan shoves her away. Athena BOOTS Hyan down! Fans rally and duel, Athena clamps on a chinlock. Athena claws at the eyes, but the ref reprimands. Athena shifts to a chinbar, but Hyan arm-drags free!

Athena is furious, she runs in, but into a BOOT! Hyan runs to CROSSBODY! Hyan fires up, rallies with clotheslines, then she fireman’s carries. WASTELAND! Fans fire up with Hyan, and she drops a leg, brother! Cover, ONE!! Athena is still in this but Hyan hurries to a corner. Hyan climbs, but Athena ROCKS her! Athena bumps Hyan off buckles, goes out to the apron, and then SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMBS her to the floor!! Fans are shocked but Athena grins. The ref wants Athena to get this back in the ring, so Athena drags Hyan up, to RAM her into steel steps! Athena puts Hyan back in the ring, covers, TWO!?!

Hyan is still in this, but Athena clamps on the CROSSFACE! Hyan taps, Athena wins!

Winner: Athena, by submission (denies Hyan a title match)

But Athena just makes Hyan suffer more! The ref counts, Athena lets off, and she gets in the ref’s face. The Fallen Goddess shows no mercy, and she sets the belt down. She drags Hyan up, fans boo, but Athena SMASHES Hyan off the belt!! Athena laughs at Hyan but fans chant, “YOU SUCK!” Athena just gets more upset! She shoves Hyan out of the ring and shouts at the fans that she’s the champ! It’s been historic every since, will anyone ever stop Athena’s reign of terror?

 

The Righteous VS Sammy Diaz & Matt Raymond!

We saw earlier tonight how ol’ Dutch & Vincent ruined the good times for Dustin & Sammy, but now they’re the ones in the ring. Will they simply add momentum to what they did earlier? Or can Sammy & Matt take advantage of being overlooked?

The teams sort out and Vinnie starts against Matt. Matt waits on the Code of Honor, but Vinnie kicks low! The fans boo but Vinnie whips Matt, only for Matt to KICK then fire hands! Matt ROCKS Vinnie, whips him, but Vinnie reverses. Vinnie then sidesteps Matt to ELBOW him down! The fans are torn, and Vinnie shouts, “Dig what I’m sayin’?!” Vinnie grabs legs but Matt kicks him away. Vinnie runs up, Matt puts him in the corner, and then Matt runs up. Vinnie ELBOWS Matt, goes up and HEEL KICKS! Vinnie runs, tilt-o-whirl, RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Vinnie snaps his fingers to the rhythm in his head, then stands Matt up.

Vinnie bumps Matt off buckles, tags in Dutch, and Dutch runs up to SPLASH! Matt staggers into Vinnie’s SIDE EFFECT! Then SENTON LEG DROP COMBO! The fans are torn but Dutch grins. Dutch brings Matt up, reels him in, short arm LARIAT! Dutch paces around Matt, drags him back up, and short arm- NO, Matt boots back! But Dutch catches Matt for an EXPLODER! Sammy tags in, LARIATS, but Dutch doesn’t budge! Sammy tries again, and again, but then dodges a lariat to ENZIGIRI! Dutch wobbles, Sammy shouts “TOP FIVE!” But he runs into a BLACKHOLE SLAM! Tag to Vinnie and The Righteous targets Matt.

Matt grabs at Vinnie, but Vinnie cravats! AUTUMN SUNHINE! And then Sammy gets the DOUBLE DUTCH DEATH VALLEY!! Cover, The Righteous win!

Winners: The Righteous, by pinfall

It wasn’t the Sammy they want but it was the Sammy they had that suffers. Then Vinnie grabs a mic to say, “Something I’ve noticed around here… is you really gotta force the hand in this place to get what you want. So that’s exactly what we’re gonna do! And when I move on something, it gets done! And if it doesn’t get done, ol’ Dutch moves on it, and that’s the last thing you want to happen. We should’ve been the ROH World Tag Team Champions a long time ago, and everybody here knows it. Sammy, Dustin, if you stab the body, it’s a wound that can heal. But if you injure the heart, that is a wound that’ll last a lifetime.

“You’re looking at the ROH World Tag Team Champions. Dig what I’m sayin’?” Vinnie hands the mic to Dutch, and Dutch holds up the cowbell. “Dustin~! HAHAHAHA! I know that you know what this is. And I know how much this means to you. And I know that every day, during your childhood, you looked up at this, hoping and praying that one day, it would be handed down to you. HAHAHAHAHA! But lemme tell you something that you don’t know, Dustin. 14 years ago, I spent a lot of time with your father.” The fans start to boo but Dutch says Dusty saw a lot of potential in him and took him under his wing.

Dusty treated Dutch like family, because he saw in Dutch what he NEVER saw in Dustin! And because of that, this cowbell was handed down to Dutch because Dusty treated him like his own son. “And now, Dustin, we all know that you are the weakest link in our family!” The fans boo but The Righteous are willing to warp reality to change the future. Will they take more than just the gold away from Dustin & Sammy?

 

ROH Women’s World Television Championship Street Fight: Red Velvet VS Diamante!

The last time these two went around, The Chef was burned by the fire inside this Cuban Diamond. But that fire also burned Diamante, which is why Diamante isn’t champion, yet. Will taking off the limitations allow Diamante to finally shine with gold? Or will Velvet serve up a proper L this time?

As Diamante makes her way to the ring, she’s wearing a chain and dragging a trash can full of goodies. Velvet simply has the belt, but it looks like she’s fixing to use it! Velvet rushes down to the ring, no time for proper introductions! She avoids Diamante’s kendo stick attack, then trips Diamante up! The bell rings as Velvet drags Diamante out of the ring! The fans fire up while the hands fire off, but then Velvet RAMS Diamante into the apron! And RAMS her in again! The fans fire up and Velvet CLUBS Diamante before putting her in the ring. The headband comes off as Velvet storms in, but Diamante has the kendo stick!

Velvet blocks the shot! Velvet stares Diamante down, then takes the kendo stick to swing on Diamante! Diamante ducks then waistlocks Velvet for a GERMAN SUPLEX! Velvet flounders while the fans rally up. Diamante has the kendo stick back, and she SMACKS Velvet on the back! And SMACKS her again! Diamante talks smack, puts Velvet on ropes, and CHOKES her! Velvet suffers, but then Diamante stops to pick up the belt. Diamante taunts Velvet with it, “Is this yours? Not for long.” Velvet throws hands but Diamante stomps her down! Diamante stomps away at the ropes, then sits Velvet up.

Diamante straps the belt to the ropes to place it right in Velvet’s face. Diamante tells the fans to shut up, then she runs side to side. But Velvet drop toeholds Diamante into the belt! The fans cheer and Velvet grabs Diamante’s trash can. Velvet raises the can, but Diamante DROPKICKS it into her! The fans fire up while Diamante goes after Velvet. Diamante hoists Velvet up top, CLUBS her on the back, then pulls her into the Tree of Woe. Velvet tries to sit up, but Diamante pushes her into the trash can! Velvet is caught and Diamante runs, DROPKICK into the can! Velvet is rattled, and Diamante dumps her out of the Tree. Cover, TWO!

Velvet stays in this but Diamante keeps planning. Diamante wedges the trash can into a corner. The fans duel as Velvet crawls and grabs a chair! Diamante sees that, and she stands on the chair. Diamante SMACKS Velvet off the steel! Diamante dribbles Velvet off it now, then soaks up the cheers and jeers from Providence. Diamante fetches her chain, and she brings it over. Velvet crawls but Diamante wraps the chain around her neck! Velvet flails and claws at the chain but Diamante is squeezing the life out of her! The fans rally and duel while Velvet sputters and coughs! Diamante says just go to sleep, but Velvet fights up! STUNNER!

Diamante staggers and Velvet breathes again. Diamante is after Velvet, whips her at the trash can, but Velvet stops herself! Velvet BOOTS Diamante back! Velvet then headlocks to BULLDOG Diamante onto a chair! The fans fire up while Diamante writhes. Velvet stalks Diamante, drags her up, and whips her into the trash can! Diamante falls in a heap and the fans fire up again! Velvet goes out and is enjoying this now. The fans chant for tables, but Velvet does us one better with a ladder! Velvet puts that ladder into the ring, then storms up on Diamante to stomp away! Velvet beats Diamante down, then she stands the ladder up.

The fans rally as the ladder is set against ropes like a ramp. Velvet storms over to Diamante, brings her up, but Diamante PALM STRIKES! Velvet grins, and she knees Diamante low! Velvet whips Diamante, to then hip toss her onto the ladder! Diamante writhes as she slides down the rungs! Velvet puts Diamante on the ladder, CHOPS her, then climbs up the corner! The fans fire up and Velvet leaps, but Diamante moves! Leg drop hits ladder and Velvet writhes, clutching her thigh and hip! Diamante storms up on Velvet, ducks a haymaker, and then BACK SUPLEXES Velvet onto the ladder! Diamante CLUBS Velvet and SMACKS her off the rungs.

Diamante puts Velvet on the ladder, CHOPS her, and she goes up the corner now. Diamante PLANKING SPLASHES! The ladder cracks from the impact! Cover, TWO! Diamante grits her teeth, pounds the mat in frustration, and she goes outside now. Diamante gives the fans what they want, because here’s a TABLE! This Street Fight has now become a TLC as Diamante completes the trifecta. Diamante puts the table in the ring while the fans duel, and Diamante sets that table up near a corner. She makes sure it’s just right before fetching Velvet. Velvet JAMS Diamante with a chair! But Diamante avoids the swing!

Velvet stalks Diamante, even as Diamante crawls under the ladder. Velvet uses chair to SMACK ladder and it jams Diamante up! Velvet SMACKS the ladder again! The fans fire up while Velvet throws the chair away. Velvet moves the ladder aside, puts Diamante on the table, and CLUBS her down. The fans fire up as Velvet makes her way to the corner and climbs up. But Diamante rises up! Diamante trips Velvet and Velvet lands on her bakery. Diamante goes up to bring Velvet up, for a SUPERPLEX down through the table!! The fans go nuts for that crash landing, but Diamante’s the one stuck in the wood wreckage!

Diamante crawls free, finds Velvet to cover, TWO!! Velvet survives, if only on instinct. Diamante is further frustrated but she hurries to grab the belt. Diamante flashbacks to when she struck Velvet down before, she wants to do it again! But Velvet dodges the belt shot! Velvet mule kicks Diamante down, then brings the belt around. Velvet dragon sleepers, into MAMA’S KITCHEN on the belt!! Cover, Velvet wins!

Winner: Red Velvet, by pinfall (still ROH Women’s World Television Champion)

These two turned up the heat and really cooked up a winner! But the winner is Red Velvet, and she moves on to bigger and better. Who will be served up as The Chef’s next meal?


My Thoughts:

A very good ROH, especially with it only coming in at about an hour and 20. Well, even less when you consider they’re keeping up the ROH Rewind. Lucky for me, it was a match I already covered. And being Athena based was smart, given she’s kinda the top story here. Very good promo in the Emergency MEM, and while Athena VS Leila will be good, the best Leila can do is last the ten minutes. Again, Billie is definitely going to be Athena’s opponent for Final Battle, and we’re just waiting for the moment she snaps on Athena.

Great opening tag team Fatal 4, and great win for The Kingdom to stay strong in the tag rankings. Good stuff in the ROH World Tag Team title story, with Dustin & Sammy having a good match with Shot Through The Heart, but then Righteous attacking them. Again, makes The Righteous having their own match and promo redundant, but this is probably all to accelerate the story so we can have the match in time for Final Battle. I had a feeling the Von Erichs wouldn’t be around for a Six Man title story but maybe they focus on that as we move into 2025 and All In Texas. Not to be mean to the Von Erichs, but it feels like they’re getting a long title reign just on name value because, well, why aren’t they traveling more?

Good stuff in the other matches. As I skimmed, it was clear Solo got a good showing against Shibata, and Waves & Curls got a great showing against this new team of Griff Garrison & Preston Vance. They didn’t have Vance strike out on his own for very long, though. I was hoping he could explore who it is to be Preston Vance on his own, but maybe he can do that while creating a bond with Griff and making that a successful team. And then a great main event from Velvet and Diamante, especially for a Street Fight. A little surprised Velvet won, but not by much. As I said before, that custom red strap is going to be the thing for a good stretch, Velvet probably makes it into 2025 as champ.

My Score: 8.7/10

PLAY BY PLAY

It’s Saturday Night’s Main Event…

… and the pleasure is all yours! A hot ticket to be sure, but let’s brush off the dust a bit. Old school intro with the new age of WWE, and plenty of pyro to go with it! But what about the fireworks we’re about to see in the ring?

 

Welcome to commentary: Jesse Ventura!

The Body is back in the WWE, and he joins Joe Tessitore on stage. Jesse thanks Joe for welcoming him, and he says it has been 40 YEARS since he’s been back, and here he is! He’s got the feather boas, the snake skin jacket, and Tessitore says WWE is experiencing sky-high popularity not seen since those classic days of Ventura’s time when it was him and Gene Okerlund, hence Tessitore’s red tie. So what has Ventura the most excited of tonight? Ventura says it has to be the world title match of Cody Rhodes VS Kevin Owens, a former friend. Venture questioned if Cody is really Dusty’s son. Cody has washboard abs, Dusty had “most abs.”

And Ventura will say that Cody proved it with his ego. Cody got involved in a match he wasn’t signed for, gets hurt, and could end up a one legged man in an ass-kicking contest! Tessitore says let’s get to the action with Michael Cole and… “Let’s Go~!” PAT MCAFEE!? Another special treat for a BIG night, but of course Pat wasn’t gonna miss this! He says for those watching WWE for the first time in a long time, you’re in for a treat! Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night’s Main Event!

 

Sami Zayn VS Drew McIntyre!

The Bloodline Civil War inside WarGames has come and gone, but there will be no peace for the Honorary Uce bow that the Scottish Terminator is back! McIntyre attacked Jey Uso backstage, he hit Sami with a Claymore, and he most recently hit #BigJim with a Claymore! Will nothing stop McIntyre from taking out the entire OG Bloodline? Or will Sami have New York feeling Ucey?

The second Sami’s in the ring, Sami fires right off on McIntyre! The bell rings, McIntyre shoves Sami down, but Sami is right back for more! McIntyre puts Sami in the corner then CHOPS him down! The fans fire up for Sami but McIntyre stands him up in a corner. McIntyre CHOPS, then finishes taking off his entrance attire. McIntyre snarls, runs up, but Sami dodges! Sami CHOPs, CHPOS, and then climbs up to rain down fists! The fans count and Sami goes way past ten! Sami hops down to then LARIAT McIntyre up and out! Sami then goes to the apron, kicks McIntyre away, to then ARABIAN PRESS! Down goes McIntyre and the fans fire up!

Sami huffs ‘n’ puffs and brings McIntyre back up to put in the ring. Sami hurries in but McIntyre kicks low! And CHOPS again! The fans fire up as McIntyre whips Sami to ropes, but then Sami grabs the ropes to stop himself. McIntyre runs up but Sami DUMPS him out! Sami then aims to PLANCHA! But McIntyre catches him! McIntyre aims, and he SWINGS Sami onto and over the desk! Sami flops to the floor and the fans boo McIntyre while Saturday Night’s Main Event goes to break.

SNME returns and McIntyre stalks Sami to a corner. McIntyre drags Sami up, CHOPS him, and then CHOPS again! Sami fires in return with forearms! The fans fire up but McIntyre RAMS Sami back into the corner, then OVERHEAD BELLY2BELLY SUPLEXES! Sami flounders, McIntyre covers, TWO! McIntyre rains down fists on Sami! The fans rally for Sami but McIntyre shakes the ropes in anger. McIntyre storms back over to Sami, brings him up and whips, but Sami KICKS back! Sami goes to a corner, McIntyre runs up, but Sami ELBOWS him! And BOOTS! Sami goes up to FLYING AX HANDLE!

The fans fire up and Sami goes to another corner! McIntyre rises up, runs up, but Sami moves! McIntyre POSTS himself! Sami then goes corner to corner but into a BOOT of McIntyre’s! McIntyre hits a SPINEBUSTER, a jackknife bridge, TWO! Sami stays in this but McIntyre deadlift POWERBOMBS him! Cover, TWO!! Sami survives and McIntyre is beside himself! The fans fire up but McIntyre looms over Sami again. McIntyre drags Sami up and fireman’s carries him to a corner. McIntyre goes right up the corner! The fans fire up while Sami flails and slips into a SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB!! Cover, TWO!!

The fans fire up as McIntyre survives and Sami is beside himself! The fans cheer Sami on and he brings McIntyre up in a waistlock. McIntyre fights the lift but Sami CLUBS McIntyre! Sami still tries but McIntyre still fights the lift. Sami CLUBS away, then goes again, but McIntyre slips out! GLASGOW KISS HEADBUTT!

McIntyre survives that sudden turnaround and the fans are thunderous! Sami and McIntyre slowly rise, and Sami goes to a corner.

“This is Awesome!” as Sami aims, fires up, and he runs in, but McIntyre bails out! The fans boo but Sami hurries after McIntyre. McIntyre slides back in, gets space, CLAYMORE!! Cover, McIntyre wins!

Winner: Drew McIntyre, by pinfall

A sudden end to the match and McIntyre is all smiles. McIntyre stands over Sami, but are the issues with Roman Reigns’ Bloodline buried? Or was this just one more name crossed off the list?

WWE World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat: GUNTHER VS Finn Balor VS Damian Priest!

Der Ring General retained this title at SummerSlam against The Punisher, and retained it again at Survivor Series also against The Punisher, all thanks to The Prince! At least, that’s what Finn would have us all believe. Gunther wants to prove he doesn’t need anyone’s help, and Priest deserves a real shot at this title, so Finn’s put himself between a rock and a hard place with this one. Will Gunther retain this title against The Punisher and The Prince? Or will someone end the reign one way or another?

Der Ring General may have just unlocked a new gear with this one! He defeats Priest and Finn at the same time, will anyone ever take this title from him now?

 

We check in with Tessitore & Ventura.

Three matches in, what has gotten The Body’s attention so far? Ventura says what he liked seeing was Liv Morgan. She took a shot to the head that would’ve stopped any normal person and still won. That Dominik Mysterio sure can pick the ladies, can’t he? Yes, Liv retained her title, but moments ago it was Gunther’s victory. The fans declared, “This is Awesome!” and those three men earned it. How does this energy compare to the original in 1985? Ventura says wrestling is even bigger today, 40 years later, and the fans can be proud of that! Way to go! We still have Cody Rhodes VS Kevin Owens, but up next, the Women’s US Championship Tournament Finals!

 

WWE Women’s United States Championship Tournament Finals: Chelsea Green w/ Piper Niven VS Mia Yim!

The WWE Women’s Division is continuing to build and build at the best in the world, and that means needing more championships to show it! And after fighting through Triple Threats and top tier competition, we have our two finalists! Will the Hot Mess or the Head Baddie in Charge bring this belt home as the historic first-ever?

The bell rings and Chelsea runs up! Mia dodges, but then Chelsea dodges a roundhouse! They argue, Mia waistlocks but Chelsea switches. Mia snapmares free, has a chinlock, but Chelsea fights up to switch. Mia switches and arm-drags Chelsea away. Chelsea staggers up, into an overhead arm-drag! Chelsea staggers but avoids a third arm-drag, and she SLAPS Mia! Chelsea TOSSES Mia out, but the ref warns Piper. Piper stays back, Chelsea runs up, but Mia SLAPS Chelsea back! Mia brings Chelsea to the apron, and then into the ropes, TARANTULA 2.0! The ref counts, Mia lets go, and Chelsea distracts the ref so Piper can SCRAPBUSTER Mia!

The fans boo but Chelsea slides out to say, “See that? You see that?!” Michael Cole can’t believe Chelsea’s proud of that, but SNME goes to break.

SNME returns and Piper cheers Chelsea on as she aims from a corner. Mia rises, Chelsea runs up, ROUGH- POWERBOMB! No Rough Ryder here, and Mia runs up to waistlock and GERMAN SUPLEX! Mia then GERMAN SUPLEXES again! Chelsea flounders, Mia reels her in, and Mia uses the ropes for a TORNADO DDT! Cover, TWO! Chelsea survives and Mia grows frustrated. Mia drags Chelsea up, wrenches, but Chelsea says no to Da Feet! Chelsea hooks arms, Mia powers out but the ROUGH RYDER returns! Cover, TWO! Chelsea is beside herself and Piper is also frustrated. Chelsea sees Mia go to the apron and she gets moving.

Chelsea DIVES but onto Piper! Mia avoided disaster, but in a way so does Chelsea as Piper is mostly able to catch her. They stand up, and Mia DOUBLE CANNONBALLS! The fans fire up and Mia tells the belt she’ll see it soon enough. Mia puts Chelsea in the ring, and hits Piper with EAT DA FEET! Mia fires up, the fans are torn, but Mia gets in, only for Chelsea to KICK her in the face! UNPRETTY- ROLL UP! TWO, and Mia wrenches, EAT DA FEET! Chelsea flounders and flops away, Mia covers, ROPEBREAK!! Chelsea survives by a literal foot and Mia can’t believe it! The fans fire up for Chelsea as Mia drags her up.

Mia brings Chelsea up to put her on the top rope. Mia fires forearms, then SLAPS Chelsea! Mia climbs, SLAPS Chelsea again, but Piper gets on the apron! That distraction lets Chelsea HEADBUTT Mia down! Mia runs at Piper to SHOTGUN her down! But then Chelsea SLAPS Mia! Chelsea hooks the arms, flips forward, and hits the UNPRETTY-HER!! Cover, CHELSEA WINS!!

Winner: Chelsea Green, by pinfall (INAUGURAL WWE Women’s United States Champion)

History made, and Chelsea makes everyone else green with envy as she gets the gold! Nick Aldis brings the belt over to put around Chelsea’s waist, but will we ever hear the end of this?

 

Tonight won’t be the ONLY Saturday Night’s Main Event!

The tradition’s comeback tour continues in the New Year with a trip down to San Antonio, Texas! Saturday Night’s Main Event will return on January 25th, but tickets are on sale now!

 

Undisputed WWE Championship: Cody Rhodes VS Kevin Owens!

While we all saw these two work together to #FinishTheStory at WrestleMania 40, that story just spun off into this story. Cody helping Roman Reigns was seen as a betrayal to Kevin, so Kevin is just exacting what accounts for justice in his mind. Though, that doesn’t really excuse the insults Kevin has been throwing at Cody about his father, his brother, or his past. But will the American Nightmare keep The Prizefighter from having his prize? Or is this where Cody’s story comes to an end?

As Kevin makes his entrance, that red elbow pad and that new shirt, “The Canadian Dream,” are some clear shots taken at Cody and Cody’s father. Cody makes his entrance and the fans sing along with his song, “WHOA~ OH~!”  But surprise! He’s not wearing the WWE logo with gold backing, that’s the WINGED EAGLE! Triple H gifted him that belt for “one night only,” will he make sure not to lose it?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who lives the dream of winning Saturday Night’s Main Event!

The bell rings and the two rush in, only for Kevin to bail out! The fans boo and Cody tells Kevin to get in here, but Kevin just ignores it all. Kevin glances at the Winged Eagle, steps back inside, but then bails right back out! So Cody goes out after him! The fans fire up as Cody throws hands! Cody SMACKS Kevin off the apron, SMACKS him off the desk, then puts him in the ring. Kevin bails out the side but Cody DIVES! Direct hit and they both hit barriers hard! Kevin clutches an ear but Cody clutches his bad ankle! Cody manages to stand up and he hobbles over to put Kevin in the ring. Cody storms in and kicks Kevin, then drops down to RHODES UPPERCUT!

Cody reels Kevin in, but Kevin fires body shots! Cody still suplexes enough to GOURD BUSTER! Kevin flops out of the ring but Cody goes out after him again. Kevin POSTS Cody! And SMACKS him off the desk! And then a DESK BACK SUPLEX! Kevin references Randy Orton, and then says hi to Randy through the camera. Kevin CLUBS Cody down, Ventura loves this, and SNME goes picture in picture.

Kevin throws Cody into the steel steps! And KICKS Cody low! Cody sputters but Kevin pushes him into the ring. Kevin stomps Cody, storms up on him in a corner, and Kevin puts a leg in the ropes. Kevin KICKS the ropes to jam that leg up! Kevin soaks up the heat while Cody hobbles, then Kevin KICKS the leg out! Kevin stands on Cody’s ankle! The ref counts as Cody has the ropes, but Kevin steps away at 4. Kevin then brings Cody out of the corner, and around by his leg, to trip him up! Kevin puts the leg on ropes to HIP DROP the ankle! The ref reprimands but Kevin stalks Cody. Kevin grabs a leg and has a standing toehold!

Cody endures, kicks free, but Kevin stomps away on Cody! SENTON! Cover, TWO! Cody crawls away but Kevin snarls and stalks him again. Kevin stands Cody up to whip and ELBOW down! Kevin mocks the deep breath of Goldust, then says “SUCK IT!” to Cody and everyone in New York! Kevin drags Cody up, just to DDT him back down! Cover, TWO! Cody survives and Kevin grows frustrated. Kevin talks more trash, drags Cody up, and Kevin hits a back suplex. Cody lands out and kicks Kevin, to then drop and RHODES UP KICK! Kevin staggers, Cody fires forearms, and he fires off in the corner! Cody puts Kevin up top then ROCKS him!

Cody cartwheels, does the Stardust, and then runs back up on Kevin to SMACK him! Clearly the mind games have no effect since Cody owns his past. Cody climbs up, but Kevin fights the superplex! Kevin CLUBS Cody, SNME returns to single picture, and Cody fights the fisherman! Cody fires hands while up top, but Kevin SHOVES Cody! Cody lands on the top rope, right on his crossroads! Cody falls down, Kevin jumps up, SWANTON BOMB! Cover, TWO! Cody survives and Kevin grows frustrated but Ventura likes the tactics Kevin’s been using so far. Maybe just stay on that bad leg. Kevin waits on Cody, then JABS! JABS! JABS!

The fans boo as Kevin flips, flops, and “SUCK IT!” But Cody kicks, JABS, JABS, and JABS! Flip, flop, swivel, BIONIC ELBOW! Cody runs, and he CLOBBERS Kevin! And then goes up and over in a corner. Bad ankle be damned, SNAP POWERSLAM! The fans fire up and Cody is feeling it! Cody springboards, BEAUTIFUL DISASTER KICK! Cover, TWO! Kevin stays in this and Ventura says Kevin sure is tough. Cody pounds the mat and the fans rally, is Cody hearing voices in his head? Cody goes up and up but Kevin bails out! Cody hops down, storms out after Kevin, but Kevin SUPERKICKS! Kevin clears off the desk!

The fans fire up as Cole does his best to get his things before Kevin brings Cody over. They both stand on the desk, but Cody hits an RKO!! Talk about a shoutout to Randy! Kevin flops around, Cody drags Kevin into the ring, and now Cody takes aim. Cody goes up, up and away, SUPER CODY CUTTER!! Cover, TWO?!? Kevin survives and Ventura does not know how! Cody is frustrated but the fans are thunderous. Cody snarls as Kevin goes to the corner, and Cody storms over. Cody puts Kevin up top, and he ROCKS Kevin with a haymaker! Cody climbs and brings Kevin up. Cody fires body shots, then a HEADBUTT!

The fans rally up as Cody goes to the very top, but Kevin fires hands! Cody fights back, these two brawl up top, and Kevin gets the edge! Kevin hooks a leg, SUPER FISHERMAN BUSTER!! Cover, TWO!! Cody survives and Kevin grows frustrated. “This is Awesome!” as Kevin rises up. Kevin seethes as he looks at Cody. Kevin storms up on Cody, waits on him to stand, kick and- NO, Cody stops the stunner! But Kevin slips out of the Cross Rhodes to shove Cody into the ref! The ref goes down hard and the fans boo! Kevin dodges Cody to STUNNER!! Cover, but the ref is nowhere to be seen! The fans count, Kevin would’ve had this twice over!

Kevin is furious, a second ref shows up and Kevin covers, TWO!! Kevin is upset with this ref but what can Kevin expect when he wiped out the other guy? Kevin gets in this ref’s face, but then drags Cody back up. Kevin whips Cody, pop-up, but Cody slips free! SUPERKICK! Kevin wobbles, Cody springboards, but Kevin ducks! Cody collides with this ref, too!! Kevin hurries to POST Cody! Kevin sees he is without refs, so he can do whatever he wants! Kevin grabs himself a chair! Kevin brings that chair in, but Cody dodges the shot! Springboard, CODY CUTTER!! The fans are thunderous as Cody roars to his feet!

Cody dragon sleepers, for a FULL METAL CROSS RHODES!!! Cover, but where’s a ref?! The first ref is back, he counts it, CODY WINS!

Winner: Cody Rhodes, by pinfall (still Undisputed WWE Champion)

If not for his rage, Kevin might have had this! Two refs and a chair were needed to figure this one out, but will the American Nightmare continue to live his dream?


My Thoughts:

A great return for Saturday Night’s Main Event, though the booking kinda followed a cookie cutter formula given the broadcast format. And even without that, we kept the status quo with titles, which on some level seemed a bit disappointing to me. Liv VS Iyo was great but Liv winning clean was shocking. Obviously they want Liv VS Rhea to still be a thing, but the sentiment out there from fans is that we’ve had enough Liv VS Rhea, we needed someone to shake this up. If not Iyo, then it should’ve been Tiffany attempting a cash-in. Tiff’s the one that can change brands the easiest with the MITB briefcase, and we’ve already seen them test the waters by giving her interactions with Rhea and Iyo, so why not pull the trigger?

That Triple Threat was awesome, but I should’ve figured Gunther would win. It wasn’t going to be Priest, as good as he is, because then we’d just be running back all this stuff with Gunther, Finn and Priest from the Summer. And it wasn’t gonna be Finn given Judgment Day stayed out of it, and also because Finn being double champion going into Monday was probably too much. Like, it wouldn’t help if the world champ was gonna lose his tag title on Monday, so he just wasn’t gonna be world champion. Judgment Day is going to fall apart because Finn’s gonna be selfish, maybe blame JD McDonagh for the loss, and get mad at the other members just because.

Great match from Chelsea VS Mia, and the backstory of this being 7 years to the day from when they battled for the TNA Knockouts Championship and Chelsea won her first singles title period really added to this. Great win for Chelsea to be the first-ever, and as I said last night, she and Mia could still feud over this title and give some great matches to build this title. The one non-title match of the night, which didn’t necessarily need to be here, Sami VS McIntyre was still really good. But I figured McIntyre was going to win because he just came back and he’s on this mission to go after all OG Bloodline members. I do feel he should end up on SmackDown to go for the US Championship, maybe even feud with Solo’s Bloodline because he still owes Solo some payback, too.

And of course, the Undisputed Championship was the main event, and the Winged Eagle looked so good live on TV. The two ref bumps made me think for just a moment that Kevin was going to win, because he could’ve gotten away with the chair shots and what not, but no, Cody still wins. But then stuff that happened off the air, but can be seen on social media, is that Kevin attacked as a sore loser, and he stole the belt! Kevin stole Winged Eagle, got into it with Triple H, and the only detail missing to me is that Kevin could’ve actually won the belt. But whatever, this can still spur a third Cody VS Kevin, maybe put it on the Raw Netflix debut, and we’ll see what happens going into the January SNME and even the Royal Rumble.

My Score: 8.8/10
