The young Chilean star makes her ROH debut, bringing her impressive CMLL résumé with her. As such, she is already waiting for her title match against THE ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena! Will the Diva of the Ring soon be the Diva of Ring of Honor? Or will Frost cool Catalina’s hot streak before it begins?

Fuego Del Sol VS Blake Christian!
You can’t have another night of lucha in ROH without the Fire of the Sun! Fuego Del Sol is back again, but can he stay hot? Or will the Vanilla Baby put him on ice?

Austin has soured on the Vanilla Baby, but Blake loves all heat! Will Blake take this six match win streak to become a champion?
Athena speaks.
“Congratulations, Catalina. You earned a first class ticket to the Athena World Domination Tour. You beat the little popsicle in your match, I hear you’re one of the best female wrestlers in CMLL. BUT… But you did something wrong. When you come into my show, into my house, you have to introduce yourself. ‘Hola! Como estas, Athena?’ And I say, ‘Bien! Y tu?’ And then I walk away ’cause I don’t care. I am the most dominant champion in all of history! I am the longest-reigning champion in ALL of ROH! You put some respect on my name! I am tired of you b*tches coming into my house and trying to take over my show, without showing a little, little generosity, a little politeness. Manners is what we call them.
“So, I’m gonna give you a little bit of time, girl. And the next time you see me… I won’t be so nice.” Athena has put Catalina on notice, but this match is happening next week! Will Catalina respectfully dethrone the Forever Champion? Or will she be sent back to CMLL with an L?
Gravity VS Dark Panther!
We’ve seen Bandido back in action, and now we see his brother make his own return! Will Gravity bring down the Son of Blue Panther? Or will The Whip of Laguna show us why he’s headed for the ROH World Television Championship?
Speaking of that title, Komander is watching from the crowd, Alex Abrahantes by his side. The fans rally up already, the bell rings, and Panther pushes past the Code of Honor handshake to waistlock and SLAM Gravity! Panther then flips Gravity over, but Gravity kips up to arm-drag!

Gravity and Panther both rise up, and Gravity LARIATS! Panther shakes that off, and the straps come down! Then he catches the lariat into a FUJIWARA ARMBAR! Gravity scrambles around to the ROPEBREAK! Panther lets go at 4, then he stomps Gravity. The fans rally, Panther runs, but Gravity scoops and SLAMS! The fans fire up as Gravity goes to a corner and climbs up. But Panther SHOVES Gravity down! Gravity tumbles, gets to his feet, but Panther DIVES! Down goes Gravity, right into the commentary desk! The fans fire up, Panther gets in the ring and throws off his armbands! Panther builds speed again, and he DIVES! Another direct hit!
The fans fire up as Panther pounds the desk! Panther gets Gravity in the ring, takes aim, and he climbs up the ropes! Panther springboards, but Gravity avoids the elbow drop! Gravity hurries to the corner, the fans rally again, and Gravity goes up top! Gravity DIVING FLOPS as Panther moves! Panther then sits Gravity up, to go up and basement MISSILE DROPKICK! Cover, Panther wins!
Winner: Dark Panther, by pinfall
Gravity falls after getting hit with the Missile of Laguna, and now Komander knows what is in store for his title defense. Will he still be the ROH World Television Champion afterward? Or will Dark Panther soon be golden?
Six Man Tag: Magnus, Soberano Jr. & Volador Jr. VS Mascara Dorada, Atlantis Jr. & Templario!
We saw their fathers battle in tonight’s opening match, and now Soberano Jr. and Atlantis Jr. battle in trios action of their own! Will the Luxury of Lucha lead Astro Boy and The Predator of the Air to victory? Or will it be “like father, like son” as Atlantis wins alongside MD 2.0 and The Lion Warrior?
The fans rally for “Lucha! Lucha!” but Code of Honor is not upheld as Soberano and his team reject the handshakes. Soberano already soaks up heat, but it is Templario and Magnus that start. Templario RAMS Magnus, Magnus eggs him on, sot he forearms start flying! Things speed up as Templario runs, but Magnus drops down to then hurdle over.

Dorada keeps going, tilt-p-whirls and RANAS Magnus! The fans are thunderous as Magnus bails out and Dorada builds speed. Dorada slides, Magnus ducks, and then Magnus pops Dorada up!

Winners: Mascara Dorada, Templario & Atlantis Jr, by pinfall
Like father, like son, the Atlantis Family has won the night! Atlantis Jr. was once ROH World Television Champion, could he find his way back to that title? Could he, Dorada y Templario find their way to the ROH World Six Man Tag titles?
My Thoughts:
A great ROH here with another CMLL crossover, but not a lot of story stuff. This was just an hour and 11 minutes of great wrestling. Though, there’s nothing wrong with enjoying great wrestling, especially under the AEW banner of “Where The Best Wrestle.” Also, this does coincide with NJPW having their Fantastica Mania series, aka their crossover with CMLL. I will say Blake Christian beating Fuego Del Sol was a touch surprising, because Fuego is on his own return push. At the same time, Blake is on a streak, and he is primed for an ROH World TV Championship match with this win.
I do appreciate that what story we did get had to do with setting up title matches. Komander will be facing Dark Panther, so great win for Panther against Gravity. La Catalina also got a very good win over Lady Frost, and Athena had a very good promo to call her out. Athena will certainly beat Catalina, there’s no way Athena is dropping the title on a regular episode of ROH TV after going two years and winning twice against Billie Starkz. Panther could beat Komander given ROH has been looser with the TV title. But as I brought up, Blake is in line for something, so Komander could make it through Panther to then have a killer match with Blake.
My Score: 8.7/10

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 2.27.2025
The card looks like a filler episode…let’s find out!

Not completely sure how to feel about this card. It feels like a lot of fodder that probably won’t lead anywhere and just hopes that the Hardys and Oba can carry people’s interest to the end. TNA is continuing the tradition from last year of maybe having one month of decent booking and then looking blind and inept for a while. Like if you look up the definition for “The Blind Leading the Blind”, it shows you a picture of the TNA booking room.
Well let’s see if I hate this episode or if something interesting manifests.

Ratings:
- Oro Mensah vs Mike Santana: Santana wins via Spin the Block – ** 3/4
- Tessa Blanchard vs Kelsey Heather: Tessa wins via Buzzsaw DDT – ** 1/4
- KC Navarro w/AJ Francis vs Steve Maclin: Maclin wins via K.I.A. – ***
- TNA Knockouts Tag Titles: The Elegance Clique w/Personal Concierge vs Spitfire (c): Spitfire retain via Pressure Drop – ** 1/2
- Mance Warner w/SDL vs Sami Callihan: Mance wins via DQ – N/A
- Ace Austin vs Frankie Kazarian: Kaz wins via Slingshot Cutter – ** 1/4
- The Hardys & Oba Femi vs Moose, Brian Myers & Eddie Edwards w/JDC & Lish: The System wis via Lights Out – ***
Results:
The System opens the show and the only one getting any real wrestling reaction is Moose gets the ole “Oba’s Gonna Kill You”. The crowd is disinterested in anything the others say, even trying to get themselves over at different points. System isn’t doing themselves any favors either because this is the most cookie cutter heel exposition promo. To add to lack of interest, The System call out The Colons to join them. Colons come out to no reaction and play the “smart heel” angle of “Why fight them when we can just join them”. So for now they’re all friends, but who knows…and Full Sail definitely doesn’t care.
Oh a Spitfire promo that is cringe. I love Dani Luna, but Jody is just Millennial Cringe as a person. Every time she speaks I get both bored and annoyed at the same time.
Oro Mensah vs Mike Santana
Sadly my browser decided to have a heart attack and disconnect after the first 20 minutes and didn’t save the already typed information. So this will be extremely abbreviated because I don’t remember exactly how it played out.
They start off with trading so Wrist Lock Arm Drags and Wringers before a few strikes give Santana the advantage, which is then immediately cut off with Oro hitting a Satellite Arm Drag. Some back and forth where Santana has the advantage, but Oro manages to counter a Back Body Drop by rolling back and Santana immediately pulls off the Rolling Buck Fifty for a two count.
Oro hits a combination of strikes, tries to hook Santana’s head for a cradle but he fights back. He hits Call of Autumn but again only a near fall. Decent back and forth but Santana punctuates things well bouncing Oro off the corner buckles and then laying him out with a Spin the Block.
Tessa Blanchard vs Kelsey Heather
Tessa comes out of the gates hot, just raining down forearms, fast and aggressive. Kelsey manages to catch Tessa with a Spinning Head Scissors and that just annoys Tessa. So a swift kick and Snap Suplex into the bottom buckle keeps the enhancement talent rocked. John Woo drop kick, Running Forearm, Whips her into the opposite corner and charges, Kelsey screams and covers up so Tessa stops and just Slaps Kelsey for good measure. A few Cradles from Kelsey gave her a moment of effort, but a Cutter into the Buzzsaw DDT and Tessa wins.
KC Navarro w/AJ Francis vs Steve Maclin
Rope run start and it’s a lot of KC dodging, misdirection and leaping over Steve. Maclin gives him a look after KC poses and acts arrogant after the one flip counter, KC sortuv apologizes and then Maclin just lights him up. No Fun Maclin beats on KC, throws him into the center of the ring and lays him out with a Sliding Lariat. KC powders, so AJ starts distracting Maclin with words, KC Stun Guns Maclin and takes the referee’s attention so AJ gets in some cheapshots and then drops him face first on the apron. AJ tries to throw in KC for the easy win, but Maclin kicks out at one.
A little more offense and a Double Stomp from KC but only a one count again. The Northern Armoury stalks down the ramp so both KC and AJ are a little distracted but KC maintains his control after a few strikes and Slingblade. But two Lariats and a Thesz Press has KC reeling, Olympic Slam gets Maclin a two count. KC manages to kick Maclin’s legs out from under him while trying to set up, KC nails the Frog Splash, but Maclin kicks out at two. 305 from KC, another Frog Splash misses, Satellite DDT attempt but Maclin holds on, smirks and kisses KC Navarro on the forehead before Deep Sixing him!

TNA Knockouts Tag Titles: The Elegance Clique w/Personal Concierge vs Spitfire (c)
Ash and Jody start, and its…I don’t know. Posturing, a weird looking Headlock Takeover from Jody. Just…ugh, and not because of Ash. Jody tries a Rollup but only gets a one and Ash immediately tags out. Heather looks a little deer in headlights, but charges and immediately gets smashed into the Spitfire corner and they start teaming up and isolating the my size Barbie. Sliding Lariat, Fun Splash, just really quick tandem offense keeps Heather on the receiving end. Concierge distracts the ref and Jody, so Ash and Heather take advantage of the situation with Heather hitting the Codebreaker and now the Clique are isolating Jody.
Jody manages to catch Heather’s foot, kick her back, make space and simultaneous tags to Dani and Ash. Dani brutalizes Ash, throws her all around, Ash starts crawling towards Heather and Dani snaps off a great Snap German before she gets to her corner twice. Takes too long for the third and Heather manages to pull her forward into the ropes. Tandem Backstabber/Double Stomp from Elegance but Jody breaks it up. Dani manages to tag out, Jody nearly hits Pop Shove It on Heather, but she slips it, tags out but Ash hits an immediate Michinoku Driver.
Dani has really great aggression in this match, Ash tags out but Spitfire manage to crash Ash to the floor, Heather is surprised and Dani just hits the Outside IN Rope Assisted German Suplex. Heather looks out of it (purely selling), they hit the Pressure Drop and retain so now the heels need to be the Personal Concierges. Heather slowly rolls to the apron to cry with Ash that they now have to work for Spitfire.
Mance Warner w/SDL vs Sami Callihan
Warner charges at the bell, Sami sidesteps and hits a Stunner sending Mance to powder. Sami grabs a chair, starts hitting him with the chair and the match is thrown out.
This is stupid, why even say there’s gonna be a match to DQ it in 30 seconds and just do a brawl with another pull apart. You can build to a No DQ match without booking the card into a corner.
Ace Austin vs Frankie Kazarian
Ace starts quick, grounded Enzuigiri, a few quick strikes, a pop over the rope, Ace tries to outsmart Kaz but not jumping into the Cutter, but when he does Springboard Kaz just lays on the ropes to cause Ace to crash. Kaz takes full control of the situation, some simple offense into the Springboard Guillotine Leg Drop. Kaz even does the Shawn Michaels pose since Ace likes to to it. Ace fires a little with a flurry of cradles but a Wrestler’s Bridge gets Kaz out of the locomotion Cradles. Kaz tries a quick cheapshot to the leg, but Ace doesn’t stop coming forward. Click Click Boom, the Seated Lariat into 10 Count Lariats in the corner followed by the Triangle Kick sending Kaz retreating to the floor. Ace wants the Fosbury Flop but Kaz hides towards Tyson, Tyriek and Wes Lee who are at commentary.
Ace is of course somewhat distracted but laying in kicks until his temper gets the best of him and he mouths off to the heel trio. Kaz tries to take advantage, but Ace dodges and sees Wes out of the corner of his eye so he gets distracted again, Kaz Slingshots him in for the Slingshot Cutter and that’s all she wrote. Kaz wins and the NXT Trio start beating on Ace until The Rascalz run down with chairs in hand.
The Hardys & Oba Femi vs Moose, Brian Myers & Eddie Edwards w/JDC & Lish
Moose calls Oba out, looks like he wants to start off but tags out in expected heel fashion. Eddie gets tagged in and tries to shove Oba but Oba gets annoyed and throws Eddie around, Myers comes in just to eat a Double Clothesline as the Hardys then run in to lay em out over the ropes.
We come back from commercial to a Poetry in Motion and Lish get on the apron to distract the referee so let the System take some short cuts and a few quick tags but Myers is the legal on now. Isolating Jeff, Eddie gets tagged in and distracts the ref so Lish can choke Hardy from outside but Jeff hits the Jawbreaker for space. Eddie tags out to Moose, Moose tries to clear the enemy apron but only gets Oba, a Twist of Hate from Jeff gets the time needed to tag in Matt! Matt hits the Delete Head Smashes, Tornado DDT, Side Effect…and Eddie breaks up the pin. Eddie tries to Dive on Oba but Oba catches him and Chokeslams him into the apron. Plot Twist on Moose in the ring! 1-2-Myers barely makes the save by shoving Jeff into the ref. Signature spam momentit comes down to Oba and Moose. Oba eats a Carbon Foot Print from Moose and stays standing, hits a Backbreaker to drop Moose, the Colons interfere enough for Moose to hit the Spear on Oba! Matt also eats a Spear after cracking Matt with a bejeweled ring fist and then Lights Out from Moose, The System wins!
Post-Match Elijah and Hendry run out to stop the post match beatdown. Santino Marella comes out with Sacrifice announcements. Jeff vs Moose for the X Division Title in a Ladder Match. Then a 10 man, the remnants of The System vs Matt Hardy and Joe Hendry’s choice of 3 extra dudes.
Overall Score: 4/10
This whole show dragged, the crowd was dead for most of the show, the predictable things happened and most of the stuff was very low influence. Tessa having her first match back on iMPACT in like 4 years was irrelevant, the backstage segment with her and Lei Ying Lee wasn’t bad though. The System isn’t really getting any reactions which is embarrassing when even NXT has tried to frame them decently, and the Full Sail crowd doesn’t care. The Elegances are comedy so their stuff is fine, and they’re actually somewhat enjoyable…but Spitfire…mainly Jody, is freakin useless. Mance and Sami has been directionless with no heat. Mustafa’s cabinet has some potential but already getting pitted against Santana feels like a byproduct of a bad main event/upper mid card scene.
I nearly fell asleep a few times with how boring this damn show was. It wasn’t insanely offensive, but it was sooooo…boring. Dreamer’s era of booking makes me long for the Russo years because at least the stories were interesting even if they were inane and edgy just for the sake of it. God…I didn’t think anything would make me look fondly upon Russo booking. Eww…I feel dirty…I’m going to sleep now.

PLAY BY PLAY
An ambulance pulls up to the Frontwave Arena?!
The doors open, and it’s COPE! Adam Copeland tells The Death Riders, “I just wanted to show you your ride tonight. See you soon.” Are things about to get Rated R here in San Diego?
MJF speaks.
“We’re going to get rid of the biggest mistake in my life. You, the fans, are why the mystery has been drained from my art, my sport, my passion. You overanalyze my craft as if you are informed enough to even know what to look for. Based on who you cheer, you clearly don’t. I’ve watched on as hypocrites cheer on Cowboy S*it at a faker, a phony, a pretender, when I am right here, literally giving you an arm and a leg! Now I’m truly going to bet on myself. You people are spoiled, you’re part of a generation that got to watch the best to ever do it in real-time, and you people chose him? I used to believe in three letters.
“Now there’s only three letters that matter to me. Not AEW. Not F-A-N. But M J F!” That’s right, he is at a laser tattoo removal parlor. MJF no longer cares about anyone or anything but himself, will nothing stop him from taking over?
Hangman Page just now arrives?
He stuck longhorns on his Rivian R1T truck, but that’s The Cowboy! Hangman parks, storms into the arena, and spooks a few as he heads for gorilla. The fans fire up as he makes his entrance, and he’s not even getting changed before his match? Is he planning on making this one quick?
Hangman Page VS Aaron Solo!
The bell rings, and Hangman BOOTS Solo down! Hangman fires haymakers in the corner, sits Solo down, but stops as the ref counts 4. The fans fire up and Hangman headlocks Solo. Hangman scrapes Solo’s face off the ropes, then whips him. Solo ducks ‘n’ dodges, escapes a scoop, and he DREAMCAST KICKS! Solo reels Hangman in, Hangman wrenches free, but Solo avoids the short arm lariat! Only for the LARIAT to find him on the return! Hangman then goes to the apron, takes aim, and slingshots for the BUCKSHOT! Cover, Hangman wins!
Winner: Hangman Page, by pinfall
Yep, that was quick! But Hangman isn’t done as he grabs a chair and a mic! Hangman storms into the ring with both, but he lets Solo get away. Hangman says, “There are three things that I hate in this world, and it’s running out of biscuits, English ivy, and when a little b*tch with a leaking spray tan spits in my face!” The fans know what Hangman means by that. Hangman takes a seat and says he is going to stay right here until someone finds him Maxwell Jacob Friedman, drag him to this ring, and Hangman gives him the ass beating of a lifetime! The fans fire up for Hangman, but here comes MJF!
The fans are torn as The Devil arrives in the arena, and he’s wiping blood off his hands…? MJF has them cut his music while he stays on stage. Hangman tells MJF to get in the ring, but MJF says, “Wow, Hangman. You wanna fight me right now in front of all these people? Dude, are you nuts? I mean look at you! You’re an animal, man! A ruthless killer devoid of any and all emotion! You’re heartless, dude! I’m not fighting you right now! No, no. Look, I don’t even know if I have a prayer on…” MJF checks the tron advertising it: Sunday, March 9th, Revolution in LA. MJF is worried!
In fact, he is going to go home to the most magical place on Earth, Long Island, New York… And MJF is going to train his tukus off for the match. MJF goes to leave, but then he realizes. “Silly me, I totally forgot why I came out here. I’m awfully worried about your friend, Hangman. You should probably check on him. I guess now’s the part where we find out whose actually real!” MJF drops his mic, Hangman stands up, and then MJF leaves. What is he talking about? Cameras find CHFRISTOPHER DANIELS down and bloodied in the back! The Devil of AEW attacked the Fallen Angel, all to get under Hangman’s skin!
Hangman takes his chair, heads out of the ring, and he storms his way to the back! Hangman looks around, shouts for where MJF went, keeps storming around backstage, but he finds Daniels first. Hangman tells medics to check Daniels already. The medics step in to stop the bleeding on Daniels’ forehead and Hangman continues hunting MJF. Has MJF finally gone too far?
The Don Callis Family is up in the skybox.
The fans boo as Callis gets VIP treatment for himself and Kyle Fletcher, because they’re getting ready to watch what’s in store for tonight. Callis is trying to stack the deck in Kyle’s favor, but will Bryan Keith be able to collect the bounty on Will Ospreay? Or will the Aerial Assassin take the Bounty Hunter down first?
Backstage interview with Chris Jericho.
It was earlier tonight that Renee Paquette knocked on the door, the Learning Tree answered, and Renee congratulated him on the big win last Saturday Night Collision, where Jericho successfully defended his ROH World Championship in an instant classic against Bandido. But she was wondering- No, no, he knows what she’s here for. Of course she wanted to congratulate him on what many are calling the greatest main event in the history of Collision. But she must really be here to apologize to him for how she treated him last week, right? Yes, and she was also wondering how this match between Will Ospreay and Bryan Keith came together.
Oh, Jericho’s glad she asked. And out stepped Don Callis! Callis said “The Greatest Of All Time” Chris Jericho assured him that tonight, Jericho has the solution to Callis’s problem. Sometimes, we must outsource in this society. Callis tried to handle things with Ospreay “in house,” he gave that opportunity to someone in the Family, but that someone dropped the ball. Mark Davis was standing right there… But Callis said Ospreay is a degenerate piece of garbage, so he needed someone who is used to dealing with degenerate pieces of garbage, like a bounty hunter! Jericho said at this stage of his career, he doesn’t have to help anyone, he chooses to help.
And so he chose to help Bryan Keith. In Jericho’s experience, bigger isn’t necessarily better. But Bryan Keith IS better! Keith has what it takes to be a champion in AEW, and more importantly, he has what it takes to beat Will Ospreay here tonight! Trust Jericho, Callis, that Bryan Keith’s your man. That’s all Callis needed to hear! Callis & Davis headed out, Jericho went back to his locker room, but will this deal between masterminds actually work out?
Bounty Match: Will Ospreay VS Bryan Keith!
The bell rings and the fans rally up for Ospreay. Ospreay points to Callis & Kyle in the skybox, the fans sing for “Ospreay~, Ospreay Ospreay Ospreay~!” and Ospreay is wary of Keith. They tie up, Ospreay wrenches and wristlocks, but Keith wrenches and slips around to waistlock. Ospreay switches, Keith headlocks for a takeover, but Ospreay headscissors. Keith kips free, the two stand off, and the fans cheer. Ospreay and Keith reset, feel things out, then tie up. They go around, end up on ropes, and Ospreay slowly lets off. Keith is holding onto Ospreay’s tights, Ospreay tries to get free, but Keith DECKS him with a sucker punch!
The fans boo, the ref reprimands, but Keith fires off more forearms! Keith ROCKS Ospreay, tells fans to shut up, then he whips Ospreay to ropes. Ospreay ducks ‘n’ dodges to RANA! The fans fire up while Keith goes to a corner! Ospreay storms up to CHOP! The fans “WOO~!” and Ospreay CHOPS again! Keith is stinging, but he CHOPS in return! Ospreay roars and CHOPS again! And again! And again! Keith THROAT CHOPS! The fans boo again, the ref reprimands again, but Keith just snarls. Keith clinches but Ospreay arm-drags free! And arm-drags again, holding on for an armlock! The fans cheer while Ospreay grinds Keith down.
Keith fights up, pulls Ospreay’s hair, and the fans boo again. Keith KNEES Ospreay against ropes, then CLUBS him. Keith whips, Ospreay grabs ropes and BOOTS in return! Ospreay scoops Keith for a SLAM, then STANDING SKY TWISTER! Cover, TWO! Keith toughs it out but Ospreay powers up the elbow. The fans fire up, the Callis Family is upset, but Keith bails out! The fans boo, but Ospreay PLANCHAS! Down goes Keith and Ospreay dusts himself off. The fans rally for “BRUV! BRUV! BRUV!” and Ospreay gets Keith in the ring. Ospreay aims from the apron, springboards, PIP PIP- NO, Keith dodges the cheerio!
Ospreay comes back, Keith TOSSES him out, and Ospreay clutches a leg. Keith hurries out and BOOTS Ospreay down! Keith roars, the fans boo, but Keith goes back for Ospreay. Keith puts Ospreay in the ring while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Keith pushes Ospreay to center and drops ELBOW after ELBOW on Ospreay! Ospreay goes to a corner, Keith snarls as he storms up, and Keith CHOPS! Ospreay is stinging now, but he shakes his head. Keith CHPOS Ospreay again, but Ospreay puts him in the corner! Ospreay climbs up to rain down fists! Ospreay goes all the way to TEN, then whips Keith corner to corner. Keith reverses, Ospreay hits buckles hard, and he staggers into Keith’s SNAP SAIDO! Ospreay clutches his head now while Keith snarls. Keith drags Ospreay to then drop a KNEE on the face! Cover, TWO! Ospreay is still in this but Keith paces around him.
Keith looms over Ospreay, pulls hair to sit him up, and then clamps on a CAMEL CLUTCH! Ospreay endures, reaches out, and gets his arms free. Ospreay stands up to fire body shots! Keith shoves Ospreay to ropes, ROCKS him in the back, and Ospreay drops to his knees. Keith KICKS him down! Cover, TWO! Ospreay stays in this and he goes to a corner. Dynamite returns to single picture as Keith storms up on Ospreay, and he CHOPS! Keith then runs up to LARIAT, and then CORNER EXPLODER! Ospreay writhes, Keith eggs him on, and the fans rally. Keith looms over Ospreay, eggs him on, then scuffs him again.
Ospreay CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! Keith ROCKS Ospreay, whips him, but Ospreay ducks ‘n’ handsprings, NEURALIZER KICK! Keith flounders to a corner and the fans fire up! Ospreay kips up, but Keith runs up! Ospreay fires counter punches, then winds up to DECK Keith! The fans cheer as Ospreay runs to BOOT Keith in a corner! Ospreay shoves Keith, springboards, PIP PIP CHEERIO! Cover, TWO! Keith toughs it out but the fans stick with Ospreay. Ospreay underhooks but Keith fights the lift! Ospreay fires Kawada Kicks, then CHOPS! Keith sputters, Ospreay whips, but Keith reverses like before.
Ospreay goes up and over, but Keith ROUNDHOUSES! Keith runs, into an ENZIGIRI! Ospreay takes a swing, Keith SWATS it to DISCUS LARIAT! The fans fire up as Keith hauls Ospreay up. Keith suplexes, Ospreay STUN DOG MILLIONAIRES! Ospreay springboards, OSCUTTER! Cover, TWO!! Keith survives but Ospreay looks right at Kyle as he prepares the elbow. The fans fire up, Ospreay takes aim, but Keith KNEES Ospreay down first! Keith reels Ospreay in, Underhooks, EMERALD TIGER DRIVER! Cover, TWO!! Ospreay survives, The Callis Family is fuming, but “This is Awesome!” Keith sits up and snarls, and he says it’s time to make that money!
Keith hauls Ospreay up, underhooks, and he lifts, but Ospreay blocks the knee! So Keith HEADBUTTS! Keith reels Ospreay back in, Ospreay backdrops but Keith sunset flips! Ospreay rolls through, deadlifts, and STYLES CLASH! Then HIDDEN BLADE!! Cover, Ospreay wins!!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by pinfall
Don Callis almost got his money’s worth, but The Bad Apple could not sour Ospreay’s win streak! Ospreay dares Kyle to come get him, but Kyle dares Ospreay to do the same! Ospreay rushes out of the ring, Kyle hurries down the bleachers, and they brawl in the crowd! Security hurries out there but fans want to “LET THEM FIGHT! LET THEM FIGHT!” Ospreay and Kyle will get to do whatever they want inside the steel cage, who survives when these two battle in LA?
AEW hears from Momo Watanabe.
The Dark Peach, the inaugural International Women’s Cup Champion, says, “I was very disappointed when I lost to Mone last summer. I still want to fight her. I will stop the Money Train.” Momo is after the AEW TBS Championship, but will she be able to take even just one belt off #FourBeltsMone?
Mercedes Mone speaks.
The CEO tells Oceanside, California to say hello to your CEO. But Mone tells Momo that she’s gonna make this quick. Mone has deals to seal and a plane to catch. Did Momo even show up here tonight? Because she made a big mistake choosing her for Revolution. And then Mone asks this “kid” if she’s seen Momo. It’s Billie Starkz! Mone says when Billie does see Mom, go fetch her for Mone. Then Mone just SLAPS Billie’s drink out of her hand?! Billie stops Mone from leaving and asks her, “What the hell!? Who do you think you are?!” Mone asks back, “Who am I? I am the Blueprint, the Standard, the Conversation, the CEO. The Greatest TBS Champion of All Time, Four Belts Mone.”
Billie says she forgot one: Narcissistic b*tch. C’mon, Mone, you know who this is: Billie Starks, ROH superstar! Future Women’s Champion. Oh, please. Wait, Momo sneaks up from behind! Billie says watch your back. Mone turns around, sees Momo and her bat, then runs away! Momo picks up the forgotten TBS Championship! Momo says, “Bye bye, Money Train~! I want this title, and at Revolution, I’m taking it.” Billie says it looks good on her. Will Momo be the next Face of TBS?
Brian Cage & Lance Archer VS The Outrunners!
The Hurt Syndicate told the Murder Machines that if they beat a “real tag team” tonight, they could get a match for the AEW World Tag Team Championships. But then they made that same deal with Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd, so this is effectively a #1 contender’s match! Will Cage & Archer show that even if you’re the Youngest Men Alive, #EverybodyDies?
The teams sort out, Cage starts against Truth, and they circle. The fans rally up, but Cage sucker punches Turbo! Truth goes after Cage but Archer attacks Truth!

Archer & Cage stay up, so the Outrunners DOUBLE DROPKICK again! The fans fire up, Truth whips Cage, but Cage reverses. Truth grabs ropes, Archer grabs Turbo, and Cage runs up. Truth DUMPS Cage out, then he DUMPS Archer out! The fans fire up as the Outrunners spin and flex!
The Outrunners go to the ropes to fetch the Murder Machines, but the Murder Machines drag them out of the ring! DOUBLE SHORT ARM LARIATS! The fans are torn as Archer whips Truth hard intro railing! Truth writhes while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Cage storms up on Truth and whips him into the steel steps! Archer whips Turbo into railing! Archer steps on Turbo, Cage drags Truth up and SLAMS him on the apron! Cage drags Truth back down, DECKS him, and Archer keeps after Turbo. Cage soaks up the heat, Archer puts Turbo against railing, and Archer talks trash on kids! Archer winds up, but Turbo avoids the chop! Cage CLUBS Truth down, drags him back up and puts him in the ring. Turbo fires hands on Archer, then high-fives those kids! Only for Archer to SMACK Turbo off the railing! Cage bumps Truth off buckles, then RAMS into him!
Cage RAMS into Truth again, and again, then CHOPS! Truth sputters, Cage DECKS him, and Archer pretends to be Turbo in the Outrunner corner. Cage scoops Truth to use him for curls! Then POWERSLAM!

Archer UPPERCUTS Turbo, hoists him out, but the Hurt Syndicate is here!? Archer lets Turbo down, Turbo O’Conner Rolls! OUTRUNNERS WIN!!
Winners: The Outrunners, by pinfall
The timing by MVP, Lashley & Shelton is rather coincidental, but the bottom line is: Truth & Turbo win the biggest match of their careers! Does this mean they get their shot at the tag titles?
The Death Riders speak.
Jon Moxley says, “If Adam Copeland wanted me alone, if Adam Copeland wanted me one-on-one, just the two of us, he could’ve picked any room in any building, behind any locked door, any alley in North America. All you had to do was ask, man. But I can appreciate that somebody put their money where their mouth was. I can appreciate that somebody is actually playing for keeps.” Claudio Castagnoli says, “Don’t even get me started. I didn’t pay attention for one minute, and Cope… My hat’s off to you. But this is not you hunting us. No, no, no, no. Now, it is me hunting you.” The Swiss Cyborg wants his fight with the Rated R Superstar, will he make sure Cope doesn’t make it to LA?
Swerve Strickland is here!
San Diego is now “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” as Prince Nana accompanies The Realest out to the ring, and Nana has a clipboard in hand. They go to the ring, and Swerve grabs a mic. He says he can’t hear them loud enough! The fans cheer, and Swerve says they know this is whose house? “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” And that’s exactly what Swerve made AEW the moment he stepped through the doors almost three years ago at Revolution! Swerve looked Tony Schiavone dead in the eyes, and he said he’d win AEW gold. Schiavone confirms he sure did. Then it is fitting that AEW wraps Black History Month, because Swerve made Black History!
The fans cheer, and the chant starts again, “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Swerve says that’s right! Night in, night out, he not only defended the AEW World Championship, he showcased it to the world! Right up to the biggest stage in professional wrestling, AEW All In: London. Swerve is no one hit wonder, but Nana here was right two weeks ago. The world title has not been Swerve’s focus for far too long. Make no mistake, Swerve is still the man around here. Swerve is still the best in the world, and he needs gold around his waist. In order for that to happen, he must right some wrongs around here.
And first on the list is a bald-headed, glasses wearing idiot walking around with something that doesn’t belong to him! That man is Ricochet. Swerve brings up Ricochet claiming they’re done, and that Ricochet is on to bigger and better things. No, no, no. They’re done with Swerve says they’re done! You think a low blow victory- Wait, Ricochet interrupts. Ricochet wears the robe, but he’s added a backwards baseball cap. Ricochet uses Mone’s favorite phrase, “Are you stupid or are you dumb?” Because Ricochet just said, it doesn’t matter what anyone says, Ricochet is DONE with Swerve! Swerve had his chance, but Ricochet won.
And winners don’t chase losers. And yeah, Ricochet gets no one here understands that feeling, since the San Diego Padres suck ass! Even the Chargers left this broke ass town! What Ricochet is chasing is gold. What Ricochet is chasing is to be something Swerve will never again be: AEW World Champion. Ricochet turns that hat around to reveal it’s a Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl hat! So no, Swerve, Ricochet will not be facing him. Not tonight, not again, not ever. Thanks but no thanks. Next time you see Ricochet, he will have gold around his waist, and he’s not talking Louis Vuitton. Fans tell Ricochet to STFU as he laughs it up.
Nana tells Ricochet to hold on and listen. Nana has an offer that Ricochet might want to consider. Nana talked with Tony Khan, and TK agrees with Swerve: the fans deserve a rematch! All Ricochet has to do is accept it. And TK also said that whoever wins this rematch… will be #1 contender to the AEW World Championship!! So what does Ricochet say to that? Dammit, Nana. Ricochet gives him credit, that is good. So all Ricochet has to do is whoop Swerve’s ass one more time, and then his ticket is punched to being AEW World Champion? Can he get an “AHA~!” because CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
But no, Ricochet looks too damn good right now, they ain’t doing this tonight. Ricochet can see in this crowd that collectively, they don’t have the money to pay his fee! So what happens is, this happens in a real California city. What they’re gonna do is they do this in the City of Angels! This happens at Revolution! Ricochet VS Swerve, one more time, baby~! The One & Only taunts The Realest on his way out, but who will be be #1 contender? Nana has Swerve hold on, they have business of their own first. Swerve asks what this is about, and Nana says he is proud of Swerve. Nana is glad Swerve is taking the steps to go for the world title. That is what the fans want! That is what Nana wants!
But most importantly, Nana wants Swerve to go back to who the fans say he is. Be the man Swerve says he is! Hell, be the man that Nana says Swerve is: THE MOST DANGEROUS MAN IN AEW! But Swerve needs to understand, Nana took a lot of bullets for him. Hangman Page, Sting, The Hurt Syndicate, Ricochet. To see Ricochet in Nana’s robe, something that means so much to him and this business, Nana needs Swerve to fix this and get the robe back. Or else, Nana doesn’t know if he can do this anymore. What? Nana takes his leave, but if the gamble doesn’t pay off, will he leave Swerve behind?
Backstage interview with Hangman Page.
Renee catches The Cowboy on his way out, wanting to talk about earlier tonight. Hangman says that MJF is gone, he left. Hangman turns to go, but then turns back to tell Max, “When I find you, and I will, if I do not run you over, you will wish that I had.” The Cowboy goes back to his longhorn R1T, will he mangle Maxwell Jacob Friedman one way or another?

Claudio is searching backstage.
He told Cope that he’d turn the tables, but Cope still gets the jump on him! They brawl, and Cope runs Claudio from backstage and into the crowd side of the arena!

The fans boo as Yuta & Claudio mug Cope, and Claudio SMACKS Cope with the chair! Then SMACKS him again!

Yuta gets what he’s after, and he fetches a second chair. Yuta sends the chair in for Claudio while he puts Cope’s head on the first. But wait! Here comes Jay White! The Switchblade says they aren’t gonna play without him! Yuta barks at White, but Cope hits Claudio low! And then SMACKS Claudio with the chair! Cope gets Yuta now! SPEAR for Claudio!

Moxley is furious but he is still in retreat. Will this Revolution truly end the reign of terror?
Harley Cameron VS Deonna Purrazzo!
While Mercedes Mone managed to thwart this wild Aussie in Australia, that defeat has only lit a fire inside of Harley! But the Virtuosa wants to stomp it out so she can have her own moment to shine. Will The Vendetta get even with Harley? Or will Deonna soon #FeelTheWrath?

Harley fires a flurry of forearms, then runs, but Deonna ELBOWS her down! Deonna soaks up more heat, then has Harley on ropes. Deonna CHOKES Harley, but steps off as the ref counts. Deonna bumps Harley off buckles, stomps away, then stands Harley up. Harley avoids the chop to CHOP! And CHOP, CHOP, CHOP!
Harley whips corner to corner, Deonna reverses, but Harley reverses back! Deonna BOOTS Harley, runs up, and CLUBS her down! Deonna grows frustrated, but she covers, TWO! Harley is tougher than that, but Deonna keeps her down with an armlock. Deonna digs her knee in, pulls Harley’s hair, but lets off as the ref counts. Deonna drags Harley up to YANK the arm!

But that’s because he, Jay White & Willow Nightingale are seeing Claudio and Marina off to the hospital! They wave bye, and the ambulance drives off. Cope, White & Willow feel good about the work they’ve done tonight, but will they manage to demolish The Decoder before Revolution arrives? Or will Yuta be promoted from pawn to ace in the hole for the “One True King” of AEW?
AEW International Championship: Konosuke Takeshita w/ The Don Callis Family VS Orange Cassidy!
The Revolution International Championship Series continues as The Don Callis Family’s Alpha defends this title against the man who put this title on the map. But no matter who wins, Kenny Omega is waiting at Revolution! Who books a dream match with the Best Bout Machine?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is the best International Champion to date!
Callis of course joins commentary with Mark Davis as his personal bodyguard, but fans still tell Callis off. The bell rings, Cassidy and Konosuke step up, and San Diego cheers on “Freshly Squeezed! Freshly Squeezed!” But Konosuke takes the sunglasses?! Konosuke looks at them, and then SNAPS them! He even bites the frame before throwing it away! Cassidy pulls out his spares! The fans cheer, Konosuke takes a swing but Cassidy ducks ‘n’ dodges! Konosuke runs Cassidy over, then steps on Cassidy’s neck! Konosuke takes the spares, and he hands them to Callis! Callis tries on the new shades and smiles while the fans boo.
Cassidy runs up on Konosuke, sunset flips, but Konosuke YANKS Cassidy up! Konosuke whips, Cassidy ducks ‘n’ dodges to arm-drag! Then he gets around Konosuke, but Konosuke fights the roll-up! Cassidy avoids the stomp, waistlocks again, but Konosuke bucks the O’Conner! But Cassidy avoids the Power Drive Knee! Cassidy ORANGE- NO, Konosuke goes Matrix to avoid the Orange Punch! The fans cheer this standoff and Konosuke grins. Cassidy stays cool, then steps back to Konosuke. Konosuke dares him to take a shot now, so Cassidy “chops!” The fans go nuts as Cassidy “chops” again!
Konosuke is already annoyed so he grabs Cassidy by the neck! Konosuke winds up, Cassidy dodges, and then Cassidy winds up, to “Alpha Elbow!” The fans go nuts again! Konosuke BOOTS Cassidy down!

Callis is all fired up as Konosuke makes it through Cassidy! Callis says he hopes Kenny was watching that, because this is what he has in store for Revolution! Will nothing stop The Alpha from becoming THE greatest in AEW?
My Thoughts:
An awesome Dynamite, lots of progress made towards Revolution and even some other stories. Cope showing up in the ambulance was a nice touch given how tonight went. Great brawl of Cope and Claudio that of course brought in the other Death Riders. Kudos to Marina for taking the busaiku knee, and nice touch letting Willow hit the con-chair-to. I still expected a little more for Willow in this, but maybe Willow and Marina have a match after Revolution, as I feel the Death Riders story won’t end, even if they lose their titles. But with Yuta as Moxley’s last line of defense, I feel like the Death Riders should lay low and just stay away from Collision. Then they can have a go-home segment that sees Cope take out Yuta after all.
Hangman of course squashes Aaron Solo, but the main point was the promos from him and MJF. I cannot believe MJF is getting rid of that leg tattoo he got while a Face. At the same time, it was so weird that he got it in the first place. But I absolutely knew he would go after Daniels just to anger Hangman. Very good segment from Mercedes with Momo and Billie Starkz. A little surprising it’s Billie showing up on AEW TV, but I suppose it wouldn’t work if it was a champion from ROH because both Athena and Red Velvet are Heels, and Billie is a younger star Mone can still look down on. But Momo having Mone on the run obviously points to Mone retaining at Revolution. It’s why I was hoping she’d go for the NJPW Strong Women’s title instead but whatever.
Harley had a great match with Deonna, and a great win with a finisher rather than a quick pin. Harley will have to wait on a title match but maybe Taya comes for revenge in the meantime. Great promo from Swerve, Nana and Ricochet to up the ante for the rematch. It’s to name a #1 contender, it’s for the robe, and it’s to see if Swerve & Nana stick together. Swerve and Ricochet will definitely put on an instant classic, and it could really go either way given the AEW World Championship could still go either way. We also have to remember, Christian Cage is still able to cash-in, so he could take the title off Mox or Cope, and it’d be some good use of continuity from when Christian teamed with Swerve.
Great tag team match from Outrunners VS Murder Machines, and I like how Hurt Syndicate screwed over Cage & Archer. It protected them while still giving Outrunners the title match, and I’m pretty sure Outrunners lose anyway. Then Hurt Syndicate VS Murder Machines can happen later for big meaty men slapping meat. Great trios match for Undisputed Kingdom VS Garcia & FTR, and a great win for Cole on Garcia. But I guess somehow Garcia VS Cole isn’t big enough for Revolution? or is Garcia VS Cole on Collision just a poor attempt at countering Elimination Chamber this Saturday?
More good stuff from the Don Callis Family as Callis and Jericho seem to make amends over common enemies. The irony of Callis setting up Jericho VS Ospreay and now he’s kinda flipping it around. But the order of giving us this promo after seeing Callis in the skybox was a little odd, I feel like it flows better the other way around. Anyway, Ospreay VS Keith was awesome, perhaps Keith’s best match in AEW, but of course Ospreay won that. No money, kayfabe or otherwise, was changing hands and Ospreay was going to be rolling towards Revolution. Ospreay and Kyle had a great brawl, their match is going to be a show stealer.
And of course, we got an awesome main event from Konosuke VS Cassidy for the title. But given how Omega called out Konosuke in the first place, obviously Konosuke was going to win. Omega VS Konosuke will be an instant classic, and I would think Omega wins, mostly for his revenge on Konosuke and the Callis Family. Plus, Omega becomes AEW’s first Grand Slam Champion, having been world champ, trios champ, tag champ, and now a midcard champ with the International Championship.
