Winner: Chelsea Green, by pinfall (still WWE Women’s United States Champion)
The Secret Her-vice did their job by protecting Chelsea’s “first term” as champion! But who else will “pledge allegiance” to the #RedWhite&Green?
Trick Williams prepares for the main event.
Je’Von Evans checks in with him. He finally sees what Trick was talking about. Je’Von got the biggest win of his career over Ethan Page, only to get jumped by those four people! So, he understands now. Oh, he understands now? Hell yeah he understands now! They have jumped Je’Von, Oba, Fraxiom, all the tag teams! Bro, no one is safe, but this is their NXT! Trick says Je’Von still doesn’t get it. There is no “we,” no “ours,” none of that. Trick is getting back to Oba, and back to HIS NXT Championship. Je’Von says, okay, whatever. Trick says what, just cuz they both have dreads, they’re friends or something?
Je’Von ain’t Trick, ain’t ever gonna be Trick. And Je’Von ain’t champ, ain’t ever gonna be champ. Tighten up. Trick leaves, and in steps Lexis King. Je’Von has gotta see Trick’s point, right? Let’s face it, Je’Von will never be an NXT Champion like Trick was. Heck, he might never be Heritage Cup Champion like Lexis. But look on the bright side: At least Je’Von can eat solid foods again. Je’Von should be sucking food through a straw- Je’Von DECKS Lexis! The Young OG won’t let the Drama King talk trash, but what about how Trick talked down to him?
The D’Angelo Family prepares for their match.
The Underboss gets Adrianna Rizzo & Luca Crusifino pumped up. Tonight, they get revenge on “The Culling” for everything they’ve done. What’s Rizz gonna do to Izzi? Break her face! That’s right! Tony D checks on them, asking if they’re ready. Oh, yeah, they’re ready, T. Good, good. But Stacks feels maybe Tony should stay in the back. Luca is upset by that suggestion, but Stacks says when they wreck The Culling, Spears will be desperate, and he’ll do anything to hold onto the NXT North American Championship. They need Tony at 100% for the rematch. Stacks is thinking two to three steps ahead, just like Tony taught him.
After all, Stacks learned from the best. Tony says hold on. Stacks wants Tony to wait in the back? Now he’s thinking like the Underboss! See, if the Underboss says it’s handled, then it’s handled. Tony is good if they’re good. Rizzo says yeah, they’re good. Luca says they know the game plan, so they’re ready. Tony wishes them luck, but will the D’Angelo Family be able to stop The Culling before they get started?
Stephanie Vaquer is here!
The Dark Angel returns to the NXT home base as the NEW, DUAL NXT Women’s & NXT Women’s North American Champion! The fans cheer her on as she brings both belts to the ring, and Vaquer says, “I need to be honest. This is difficult for me, because English is not my first language.” Everyone chuckles, but they don’t mind. Vaquer says, “Wrestling is my first language, and this proved it!” The fans cheer that! Vaquer says she had the opportunity to go to any promotion, any brand. But she chose NXT because she wanted to make history. And she wanted to make it in the best women’s division on the planet!
The fans cheer, and Vaquer says last week in New York, against one of the best, Vaquer proved why she is La Primera. The fans cheer that, too! Vaquer smiles and says holding these two titles makes her the best of the best, La Mejor de Mejores! And now, Vaquer is ready for her first opponent, the woman who will step into this ring, look her in the eyes, and- WAIT! Here comes Jordynne Grace! The fans fire up for the Juggernaut and she already has a mic to say, “Stephanie, let me just start by saying congratulations. You truly are a trailblazer, and I cannot give you enough credit for that. But you’re not the only one who accomplished something last week.
“I beat Roxanne Perez, a woman who elevated one of those titles that you’re holding to a completely different level. That victory puts me first.” But JAIDA PARKER knocks Jordynne over! Miss Parker laughs and then talks trash. HIP-NOTIC against the barriers! Jaida grabs the mic and says, “Nah, Jordynne, it don’t work like that, baby. You ain’t first in line in anything around here. Because the lien starts behind Jaida Parker. And you notice me. I’m not waiting until Stand & Deliver to make my point. Because I’m taking my own shots. So Stephanie, congratulations, baby, I’m really proud of you. She did that, did she not? The fans do cheer that.
“But baby, do yourself a favor, okay? Bask in all of your glory. Hell, enjoy taking your pictures and your personal appearances. Hell, even maximize being a double champ, right? Because this, hahaha… It ain’t gonna last too much longer, baby. Because you said whoever comes out here as your next opponent to look you in your eyes. And baby, I am standing ten toes down, looking you dead in your eyes! So be careful what you ask for, Steph, because Jaida Parker will make you reap what you sow. Quit playing with me.” Miss Parker don’t play, but will she be ready for taking on the best of the best?

They’re fired up after the Hardy Boyz telling them they’ve gotta take it to the extreme.

Hank ‘n’ Tank sure did go to the extreme, but it doesn’t always pay off! Briggs & Inamura are now the ones rolling, will they Stand & Deliver for those NXT Tag Team Championships?
Eddy Thorpe arrives.
As he enters the locker room, other superstars like Oro Mensah, Javier Bernal & Harlem Lewis decide to exit. Eddy asks Ridge Holland if he’s gonna take off, too. Ridge says nope. Eddy says he and Ridge have stuff in common, really. It seems that no matter what they do, or how hard they try, the others don’t accept them. But screw ’em! Every single one! Ridge says he likes that attitude. And yeah, NXT brings that shiny new toy off the street in Ricky Saints, but Ridge is the one putting years of work into this company. Yet it’s Ridge getting shafted, just like Eddy. And y’know what it is? Ricky is a “sports entertainer,” just like Trick Williams.
Well then, Ridge will deal with his “entertainer,” so Eddy should deal with his. Eddy says bet. These two thinking alike might be a worst case scenario for everyone else on the roster. But will both Yorkshire Grit and Alpha Wolf be victorious tonight? Or will they learn Ricky and Tricky are far more than entertainers?

The NXT General Manager knows that as the double champion, Vaquer wanted a challenge, so she’s got it. Next week, Vaquer VS Jaida for THE NXT Women’s Championship. Vaquer says being the best of the best women’s division, she- gets interrupted by Fallon Henley… The Toxic Cowgirl asks if Ava remembers her. Unfortunately, yes. Then when is her championship match? Ava says they talk about this almost every week, or even every day! And Fallon will keep bringing it up! She deserves her rematch! Vaquer tells Ava that she can give Fallon the rematch. Perfect! Hear that? And Fallon wants it next week.
Well, next week won’t work. As Ava just said, it is Vaquer VS Jaida. Uh, not Fallon’s problem. Vaquer wants to be double champion, right, La Primera? Vaquer says Fallon already knows Vaquer is La Primera? Oh, does she? Then Vaquer has no problem facing her after the match with Jaida. Vaquer says done. Fallon asks Ava if she heard that. Vaquer is giving Fallon her title match. Ava says fine, good, Fallon got what she wanted, now go. And don’t let the door hit her on the way out. Ava says two title matches next week is a big night for Vaquer. Vaquer nods, but will she make it through next week’s double header?
Karmen Petrovic w/ Ashante THEE Adonis VS Jacy Jayne w/ Fatal Influence!
While Jaida and Fallon both have title matches next week, The Blackbelt Beauty battles the Toxic Rockstar in hopes of getting her own opportunity. Will the #ShingShing cut down Jacy and carve a path to Stand & Deliver? Or will NXT still be under the Influence?

Winner: Jacy Jayne, by pinfall
The Encore rocks Karmen and now Jacy rolls down this Road to WrestleMania Weekend. Is Adonis a bad influence on Karmen? Or was he thinking too much with his heart and not with his head?
Hank ‘n’ Tank regroup backstage.
Tank is upset, they did what the Hardy Boyz said and it didn’t work. Hank wonders if they did it wrong. Tank says they must have. They got advice from one of the best tag teams in the world, and they still came up short. Tank isn’t sure what to do anymore. Hank says they just need more advice. They should talk to other teams more on the level. Wes Lee, Tyson Dupont & Tyriek Igwe walk in, and Wes says it doesn’t matter what information you get from whatever legendary tag team. If you ain’t got it, then you ain’t got it. Stick to what you’re good at. And by the looks of things, that’s eating contests.
Hahaha, very funny. Hank keeps Tank from going after the Wes Side as they head back out. But is it true? Is there just something that Hank ‘n’ Tank are missing?
Jaida Parker exits Ava’s office.
Miss Parker tells the camera, “Look. Next week, my NXT Women’s title match against Stephanie Vaquer is set. I told y’all I am done waiting around, because it is Stand & Deliver season. And the new girl, Jordynne Grace, messed around and found out. Nobody gets in my way of me getting what I want. And what I want is to walk in Las Vegas, at Stand & Deliver, as THE NXT Women’s Champion. And next week, we not shooting dice, we not playing no cards, and we damn sure ain’t spinning no wheels. We are getting a NEW NXT Women’s Champion, and you’re looking right at her. Clock it.” Will Miss Parker get #OutTheMud and have that gold?
In the background, Karmen and Adonis seem to be arguing about what happened out there. Adonis is trying to apologize, but Karmen storms off. Is the romcom turning into a tragic romance?
Ricky Saints VS Ridge Holland!
The Absolute Revolution has begun, and he now has his first singles match in NXT. But will he also have his first singles win? Or will he fail to get past the Yorkshire Grit?

Triple H talks with The Miz & Wade Barrett.
The Game knows that while WrestleMania is a big weekend, Night Two ends and it’s still kinda early in Las Vegas. People will wanna go, do something, see something big. Any ideas? The Miz suggests a roast. Wait, a roast? Yes, the Roast of WrestleMania, hosted by Tony Hinchcliffe! Wow, that could go off the rails in a really bad way. Let’s do it! That’s right, the WrestleMania Weekend got that much bigger and wilder! What won’t Tony and friends have to say about the WWE? You have to tune in Sunday night, April 20th, 10 PM Pacific (1 AM Monday morning for the East Coast) to find out!
NXT Media catches up with Dion’s crew.
The reporter asks why they went after Tony D tonight, but Dion says, “Everybody knows what we got to say, right? Everybody knows what we all about. So I’ll tell you like this. We heard that here in NXT, you gotta earn your spot. And that makes us sick! The whole ‘We are NXT’ bull. Nah. Waiting around got us nowhere!” Cutler James says, “Look, the four of us aren’t built to sit on the sidelines. What you see here, four gamechangers. Four difference makers.” Osiris Griffin says, “We saw the landscape of NXT, and that don’t work for us. We’re restructuring, remodeling, reshaping it the way that we want it.”
And Saquon Shugars says, “I’ll make it real, real simple for y’all, G. When Dark State strikes, ain’t nobody safe! And the chaos is fittin’ to continue. And we made our statement. Did we make our statement tonight?” Cutler thinks so. Shugars says he isn’t so sure. They probably don’t get it yet, so these four are going to make sure they get it! These four storm back inside, who won’t be a target for them?
BREAKING NEWS for NXT next week!

Backstage interview with Ricky Starks.
Kelly Kincaid congratulates The Absolute on his first singles win, and he thanks her for that. As they all know, it is Stand & Deliver season, so every win counts, every moment matters. And Ricky will deliver on every single promise that he stated when he first got here. That starts with him bringing an entirely new revolution to- The Culling interrupts. Izzi tells Kelly to leave, so Kelly does. Ricky says, “Oh. I guess the interview’s over now, huh? Thanks, guys. Lemme guess: Y’all don’t care about outsiders either?” Niko tells Ricky that his revolution is happening right before his eyes. What they just did to the D’Angelo Family-
Ricky stops Niko there. It took four guys to take out Tony. Izzi says Ricky has the confidence of a much, much larger man, and she’ll give him credit, Ricky’s charisma and star power is among the best in the world. But it just doesn’t seem like he measures up. Ricky tells Spears that he shouldn’t be laughing, and he tells Izzi that she needs to get her eyes checked. One thing about Ricky Saints is that he always measures up, in the right places. Ricky also gives Niko a quick look up and down. Izzi says sure, and Spears scoffs. The Culling heads out, but will The Chair Man have to accept he’s now a target with that gold on his shoulder?
NXT Underground: Trick Williams VS Eddy Thorpe!
It has gone back and forth between these two, the NXT Championship the underlining reason for the conflict. But things have gotten rather personal because of it, and this is the only way they can put it to rest! Who doesn’t so much win as survives when there are no ropes and nothing holding them back?
NXT returns and superstars surround the ring, including those from Evolve. Trick makes his entrance and the fans fire up as they chant, “WHOOP DAT TRICK!” The introductions are made for this big fight feel main event, and in the end, there can only be ONE King of the Underground!
The bell rings and the two circle. Eddy feels things out, as does Trick, but both men are wary of the other. They clinch, Trick headlocks, but Eddy hits a takedown! The fans and the superstars rally as Eddy and Trick scrap, then they roll off the ring and to the floor! Eddy stands Trick up to ROCK him, and everyone else has to get out of the way as Trick stumbles along. Eddy pursues, ROCKS Trick, then knees him low! Eddy has the Evolve stars move, then whips, but Trick reverses! Eddy crashes into steel steps! The fans fire up as the ref checks Eddy, but Eddy is still in this. Trick drags Eddy up and puts him back on the ring.
Tricky storms up, but he dodges Eddy’s lariat! Trick UPPERCUTS Eddy off the ring and onto the ground! The fans fire up for Trick, was that a knockout? Trick doesn’t let the ref check, he pays homage to Ilja Dragunov with the H-BOMB FOREARM, only for Eddy to move! Trick crashes on the floor with a thud! The fans rally up, the Evolve stars pound the apron, and Eddy puts Trick back on the ring. Eddy dodges the Trick Shot to BUSAIKU KNEE! Trick falls to the floor, the ref checks, but Trick is still in this. Eddy goes after Trick to then pay homage to Randy Orton! DESK BACK SUPLEX! Trick and the table collapse in a heap and the fans lose their minds!
The fans rally for “NXT! NXT!” as Eddy puts Trick back on the ring. Eddy storms up, drags Trick to his feet, but Trick wrenches out! Trick ROCKS Eddy with haymaker after haymaker! Then he UPPERCUTS again! Eddy staggers around, Trick scoops and SLAMS! And then scoops and SLAMS! Trick wants Eddy to get up, and then he clinches, but Eddy clamps onto an arm! Eddy drags Trick down into a TRIANGLE HOLD! No ropes means no ropebreaks as Trick flails! Trick deadlifts and POWERBOMBS Eddy! But Eddy holds on! Trick endures, flails, and fights up again! Another deadlift, for another POWERBOMB, onto the Evolve stars!
The fans are thunderous as Eddy wipes out quite a lot of those young up-and-comers! Eddy manages to get up from that heap of humanity, goes back tot he ring, and he dodges a kick! But not the TRICK SHOT!! Trick HAMMERS away on Eddy, the ref calls it! TRICK WINS!!
Winner: Trick Williams, by knockout
The Alpha Wolf thought he could take a bite out of this former NXT Champion, but he just got whooped! Trick grabs a mic, and he has them cut his music. “Eddy Thorpe, you better learn how to squabble. Now that we gettin’ ready for Stand & Deliver season… Oba! Bring your punk ass out here! Hold on. Make sure you got my title.” The fans are stunned, but The Ruler makes his way out here! The NXT Champion will not back down from being called out, and he throws his shirt off! Oba steps to Trick, both men let their hair down, but then the lights go out! IT’S THEM! DARK STATE IS IN THE BUILDING!
Je’Von rushes out here and he says this is what he’s talking about! Stand united or get taken out again! Trick SHOVES Je’Von down!? Does Trick not understand what’s going on?! Oba doesn’t seem to care, either, as he and Trick start throwing hands! Je’Von goes after Trick, too! Oba throws Je’Von aside, wanting Trick to himself, but now the other superstars hurry in to break this up! It is just as Dark State wants: CHAOS! CHAOS! CHAOS! As the stars of Evolve try and break this up, Oba and Trick throw them all off, to throw hands with each other again! Je’Von runs up, OG CUTTER on Oba! Je’Von then stares Trick down, wanting him to understand.
Dark State smiles, because their work here is done without them even having to go to ringside. But can The Young OG get his own role model, Trick Williams, to open both his eyes and his ears about what really matters here in NXT? Or will Je’Von just have to lead the charge himself?
My Thoughts:
A great NXT, some pretty wild action, and maybe just a few odd moves. A great opening match with Sol and Chelsea, but of course Piper & Alba are factors. Even with that, Chelsea shows good match strategy working over a leg. Legs are part of everyone’s wrestling style, but it is even more crucial to Sol’s because of her springboards. Chelsea gets a great win but Sol looks good all the same, I wonder if Zaria gets a shot of her own before Stand & Deliver. And very good stuff with Vaquer already setting up her first double header as double champion. Good promo from Vaquer herself, and Jaida attacking Grace as Grace was about to make her challenge was great.
But you have to know that if Jaida is having her match next week, she’s losing. She’ll have her best match ever, and she had a very good promo on her own later, but she’s gonna lose. But she shouldn’t feel too bad, Fallon is surely losing, too. Fallon is not going to just take that title back the moment Vaquer became double champion, but she might also have one of her best matches yet. Vaquer will surely battle Grace at Stand & Deliver for at least one of the titles, but it really depends on what the plans are for both titles. Vaquer could do another double header, she could do a double title match with Grace, or we could even get a Triple Threat in the same spirit as Becky VS Charlotte VS Ronda. After all, Vegas is all about raising the stakes.
The Women’s Division also had a good match from Karmen VS Jacy, but I didn’t think we’d get Adonis trying to Heel things up and costing Karmen like that. They made it past Valentine’s Day, who knows where this story goes from here. As for Fatal Influence, if Fallon doesn’t win the Women’s North American title, I wouldn’t mind seeing Fatal Influence working towards the tag titles. There can even be dysfunction over which two are going for them, where Jacy and Fallon end up putting Jazmyn in the middle, she can’t choose, and so it ends up Jacy and Fallon as the duo for some major dysfunction that just tears the group apart.
Hank ‘n’ Tank VS Briggs & Inamura was great because not only was it big meaty men slapping meat, it was big meaty men moving at high speeds like they were cruiserweights. Though that last dive from Hank was pretty wild, it is a good thing these two are probably ditching the Hardy style. Good promo from them and The Wes Side, and I would think we get Hank ‘n’ Tank VS Tyson & Tyriek. Someone who should be advising Hank ‘n’ Tank is Bubba Ray. Hank ‘n’ Tank are definitely more a Dudley Boyz kind of team, being big guys who can hit hard. Plus, I could see them wearing those Dudley glasses and making it work.
Good stuff in the D’Angelo Family story, with Tony trusting Stacks’ judgment call on the Mixed Six with “The Culling.” But then what irony in Dark State took Tony out anyway. Also as faction names go, The Culling and Dark State (Darkstate?) don’t really match either group. The Culling did have a promo to go with the context of that name, “reduction of a wild animal population by selective slaughter,” which is supposedly what they’re going to do with NXT by eliminating The D’Angelo Family and others. Dark State is a physics term but also a political one, but they’re definitely not using the first. But even then, Dion, Cutler, Osiris & Saquon don’t really fit this idea of a rogue movement within an organization or government.
Ricky VS Ridge was a really good match, certainly followed the classic formula of the Face fighting a bigger Heel, and it was a solid win for Ricky. The seeds were planted for Saints VS Spears for the North American Championship with that backstage promos, and that will be a great match. Je’Von is making big moves for being a young star, as he has a very good promo with Trick to bring up the issue Dark State is becoming. I’m not going to say this is NXT’s response to AEW’s Death Riders story, but the parallels are there. Just as Darby Allin wanted AEW to stay united against The Death Riders, Je’Von wants NXT to stay united against Dark State. We know Darby got thrown down stairs, we’ll have to wait and see where Je’Von VS Dark State goes.
Trick VS Eddy was a great Underground match, though maybe leaning more into the “sports entertainment” of Trick as Eddy flew away with that uppercut to sell for Trick. Trick winning and then challenging Oba made sense, and then it was great for Trick, Oba and Je’Von to brawl while Dark State watched from afar. Again, there’s parallels to AEW VS Death Riders, and who knows who Je’Von recruits to help fight Dark State, but we could get some really good stuff going forward.
My Score: 8.9/10

Winner: Andrade El Idolo, by pinfall (NEW IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion)
An instant classic and an absolute shocker at the same time as Andrade has his revenge! Yota went from two belts to none, what will his journey of redemption look like?
As for Andrade, Tanahashi presents him with the belt, and Andrade holds it high. This is not only a win for the United Empire, but a win for AEW and the Don Callis Family. Andrade grabs a mic to say, “I did it.” The fans applaud, and Andrade continues by saying, “I wanna say thank you. Yota Tsuji is good, he’s an amazing talent, but Andrade El Idolo was better tonight.” The fans applaud again, and Andrade says he knows many know he is an AEW talent, but this title is NJPW’s. So Andrade will now officially be working in both companies, both companies are in his blood. And he wants to thank everyone here in Japan for watching.
Andrade says he now has a question, and it is a simple one: Who wants to challenge him? The fans applaud, and Andrade drops the mic. Andrade holds up the belt again, but wait! Stepping out in a nice suit is Drilla Moloney. But then Shota Umino is also here, still in ring gear. Andrade likes where this is going as the two challengers talk on stage. 44 Caliber and Roughneck both go to the ring, and Andrade asks if they heard what he said. So Drilla wants this title? And Shota wants it, too? Then he has an idea.
If they want this title, HIS title, why not this just be a Triple Threat for the Global Heavyweight Championship? Just say where, when, and what time. Then The RRRREAL~ Latino Man will be there! The fans cheer as Andrade is already raising the bar on this belt! Andrade says just call and he’ll be there. Andrade tells the fans, “Arigato!” The fans cheer, but will Andrade regret stacking the odds for his first defense? When and where will we see this shootout happen?
My Thoughts:
A great start to the Wrestling Dontaku double event, and quite the surprising result for the main event. While House of Torture shenanigans were 1000% expected for Narita VS Oleg, that was still a great match. But at the same time, as great as Oleg is, he was not going to become a TRIPLE champion between the NJPW Strong and both NEVER Openweight titles. Aaron Wolf stepping up to Ren is good stuff, but seriously, can Tanahashi use his authority to put ringside bans up? It’s actually bad kayfabe logic from management to not see that as an option.
But as I was saying, amazing main event, and Yota losing is pretty wild. I suppose even if this was Yota Tsuji VS Gabe Kidd, Gabe winning would’ve worked in story, too, positioning this title as a crossover title between NJPW and AEW. Yota’s story of making a comeback will be an intriguing one. Perhaps he uses the G1 Climax as his road back. As for Andrade being up for the Triple Threat with Shota and Drilla, that’s pretty cool, too. I don’t see Andrade losing his first defense, but a Triple Threat is a classic way to keep all parts strong no matter the result.
My Score: 8.9/10

Willow hobbles up, Anna runs to ROLLING NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Willow toughs it out but goes to a corner. Anna storms up to stomp a mudhole into Willow, but stops as the ref counts.

Winner: Willow Nightingale, by pinfall (still AEW TBS Champion)
Anna sure put up a fight, but Willow is 4-0 as the Comeback Killer! Willow helps Anna to her feet to show there is respect here, and they also hug it out. But will no one, no matter who they are or what they’ve been up to, dethrone the Face of TBS?
Backstage interview with Kris Statlander, Hikaru Shida, Harley Cameron & Mina Shirakawa.
Renee Paquette is with all four women in a familiar situation, and thanks them all for accepting the No Physicality Agreement. Renee understands Shida has something to say. Shida says yes! Shida again says she is so sorry, Stat, and that she will make it up to her! That’s why Shida got Kris another tag match! But against THESE TWO! Harley acts surprised, and sarcastically asks if Shida is really allowing herself to wrestle someone not on her level. Can she even talk to someone “not” on her level or what? How does this work? Shida says enough, Harley! You don’t even deserve to touch the kendo stick! Shida then uses Japanese to hide her comments about Harley & Mina having nothing but bosoms.
Mina says enough! Stat, how can you still trust Shida? How can you give her another chance? And… Where was Kris the night Toni was attacked? Shida says enough about Toni! Harley tries to reason with Kris, but Kris storms off. So is that a yes to the match? Mina apologizes to Harley, Harley says she has no idea what to say, but will the Wild Aussie & Fighting Gravure Idol let their actions speak for them against #Shidalander?
Ace Austin & Juice Robinson VS Wheeler Yuta & Daniel Garcia!
The Bang Bang Gang has been struggling to stay afloat, and now they go up against The Death Riders’ Decoder & Dragon Slayer! Will Yuta & Garcia keep the momentum going from what Moxley and the others did earlier tonight? Or can these Collision Cowboys ride off into the Peoria sunset with a win?
Moxley joins commentary for this match, and he admits that 10 Man Tag was a tornado of a match, where you just hang out, pray, and trust your skills to see you through. The teams sort out and Juice starts against Yuta. They circle, Juice tests the ropes, then feel things out. The fans cheer Juice, but Yuta BLASTS Ace!

Tag to Garcia, Garcia brings Ace up and bumps him off buckles, then Collision goes picture in picture.
Garcia climbs up, he rains down fists, stops at nine and puts up his dukes. But no dancing here, he just hops down to bump Ace off buckles. Garcia scoops and SLAMS Ace, then tags Yuta. Yuta climbs up to ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO! Ace is tougher than that, but Yuta clamps on with a chinlock. Ace reaches out but Yuta clamps on a straitjacket.

Yuta gets a cheap shot in while the ref holds Juice back. Garcia bumps Ace off buckles, but the ref backs him off. That lets Yuta DUMP Ace out, and Marina is again there to cause problems! Yuta puts Ace back in, high-fives and fist bumps Marina, and Garcia stands on Ace! The ref counts, Garcia counts along, and Collision goes to break.
Collision returns as the Death Riders continue to mug Ace. They shove him to the corner, then Garcia sends Yuta in for the BODY BLOCK! Garcia LARIATS, Yuta ELBOWS, repeat! The Cycle of Violence continues until Ace BOOTS Yuta and ELBOWS Garcia! The fans fire up as Ace hurries, but the Death Riders THROW him back! And they BLAST Juice together! Then they DOUBLE SHOTGUN Ace down! Marina & Moxley love it but they’re the only ones. Garcia reels Ace into a PERUVIAN NECKTIE! The fans boo, but Juice rises up. Ace reaches out, pries free, and has the ROPEBREAK! Garcia drags Ace back up but Ace fires body shots!

Juice LARIATS Garcia back out, then ELBOWS Yuta down! SENTON!
The fans fire up for Juice, and he CROSSBODIES Garcia down! Juice talks trash on Moxley, but Garica throat chops him! Moxley says keep your eye on the ball. Yuta DIVES, but Juice uses Garcia as a shield! the fans cheer the friendly fire, and Jucie SMACKS Yuta off the desk! Yuta is busted right open! Juice fires up, the fans pump it up with him, and Juice JABS! JABS! JABS! “JUICE! JUICE! JUICE!” Garcia gets up, but he gets the LEFT HAND O’ GOD! Yuta runs up, but Juice JABS, JABS, JABS! Marina gets up, and Juice thinks about it. But Yuta rolls Juice up! TWO and Yuta bumps into Marina! The fans cheer as Juice then O’Conner Rolls, TWO!
Juice staggers, comes back, and LEG LARIATS Yuta down! Cover, Garcia breaks it in time! The fans boo but Ace is in! Ace ROCKS Garcia, KNEES, KICKS, and runs up in the corner! Garcia BOOTS Ace, then DUMPS him out! Juice whips Yuta, but Yuta sunset flips! Rewind into Garcia’s PILEDRIVER!! Yuta goes up, Garcia positions Juice just right, FASTBALL SPECIAL!! Cover, TWO!! Moxley is frustrated for his guys, and Yuta snarls through his crimson mask! Yuta aims, BUSAI- NO, Juice ducks the knee! But Garcia SHOTGUNS! But Ace FLYING CHUCKS! Yuta wrenches Ace, RIGHT ANGLE SLAM!
Yuta fires up, he brings Juice around, but Juice hits the LEFT HAND O’ GOD! Then the JUICE BOX!! Cover, BANG BANG GANG WINS!
Winners: Ace Austin & Juice Robinson, by pinfall
Moxley is honestly stunned, but he admits that was good stuff. Saturday nights are alright for a fight, and Garcia CLOBBERS Juice! Yuta LOW BLOWS Ace! The Death Riders are sore losers, Moxley says you don’t go calling him out and get away with it. Garcia CHOKES Juice, Yuta stomps Ace, but “GUNNS UP!” YES, Austin & Colten Gunn are both back! And they rush in to CLOBBER the Death Riders! They fire off on Moxley, but Yuta 7 Garcia come back for more! The Gunns DECK those two, then wait on Moxley! But Marina saves The Maniac from a 3:10 to Yuma! Yuta runs in, he gets the 3:10 TO YUMA!!
The fans fire up as The Bang Bang Gang is now four men strong! Colten gets a mic to shout, “The Collision Cowboys are back, baby! This is OUR show! And if you’re not down with that, we’ve got two words for ya!” “GUNNS UP!!” Marina is pissed, but will The Death Riders settle this with Bang Bang Gang soon enough?
Backstage interview with The Divine Dominion.
Lexy Nair is with Megan Bayne & Lena Kross, and Megan says no, she’s not with them, she’s beneath them. Just like this entire Women’s Division. Lena says Divine Dominion just defeated Stat & Shida, two former world champions, and two of the best in this company. And yet they crumbled at Divine Dominion’s feet! What two other women even have a prayer? Can Lexy think of them? Wanna try? N-NO, absolutely not. Then the only hope this Women’s Division has is if the gods themselves take mercy on their souls and strike these two down. Otherwise, just stop trying. Megan & Lena have spoken, but will that challenge soon be matched?
Skye Blue VS Nixi XS!
The Chicago Skye looms dark over Peoria, especially after she and the Triangle of Madness misted Persephone full in the face just to cheat a win last week. But will Skye make sure to leave her opponent black ‘n’ blue tonight? Or will the Alien Girl shine through with neon colors?
The bell rings and Skye just BOOTS Nixi down! Then she scuffs Nixi, talks trash on her, and pie faces her around. Skye TOSSES Nixi out, then runs up, only for Nixi to BOOT her back! Skye ROCKS Nixi, then runs up again, to BOOGT WASH her to the floor! Skye scowls as she stalks Nixi on the outside, and she brings Nixi up to SMACK her off steel steps! And again, and again, and again! The fans cheer Skye as she puts Nixi on the apron. Skye drags Nixi out for a DRAPING SWINGING NECKBREAKER to the floor! Nixi writhes but Skye puts her back in the ring. Skye swaggers while the fans cheer, then she climbs up the corner.
Nixi slowly rises so Skye revels in the cheers a little more. Nixi ROCKS Skye, but Skye ROCKS her back! They brawl up top, but Skye slips under to tuck Nixi in! CHEEKY NANDOS! Then Skye gets under Nixi for a RUNNING POWERBOMB! Flip over and KNEE!! Cover, but Skye lets up! The fans re torn, but Skye shouts out Julia Hart with the dragon sleeper! She drops down, DESCENT INTO MADNESS! Nixi TAPS, Skye wins!
Winner: Skye Blue, by submission
Skye shows her arsenal is deepening, just like the darkness in her heart! Will all parts of the Triangle of Madness soon be shining with gold?
AEW TNT Championship: Kevin Knight VS Hook w/ The Opps!
The Jet used MJF’s own tricks against him to keep this title, and now he has his shot at Darby Allin’s AEW World Championship this Wednesday. But will Knight still be bringing this gold with him? Or will the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil finally make himself the Face of TNT?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see whose luggage will be a little heavier as they leave Illinois!
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Knight and Hook circle, tie up, and Hook slips around to waistlock. Hook picks a leg, trips Knight, then eggs him on. The fans boo but Knight brushes it off. Knight asks Shibata if he taught Hook that trick. Shibata ignores Knight, but Knight and Hook tie up again. Hook headlocks, wrenches, then wristlocks. Knight rolls, handsprings, and wrenches to snapmare. Knight drops a KNEE on the arm! Hook scrambles away but Knight calls to Shibata, saying he knows Shibata knows these tricks. Knight does squats like back in the dojo, and the two tie up again. Knight powers Hook back, Hook turns things around, and they go along ropes.
The ref counts as the two keep going around and around, then they return to center. Hook waistlocks, Knight switches, but Hook switches back. Knight wrenches, hammerlocks, and the fans rally. Hook reaches back to hit the SAYANAGI! Hook runs but Knight stays low. Knight hurdles, then HIP TOSSES, but Hook handsprings through! Knight dodges Hook’s lariat, Hook HIP TOSSES, but now Knight handsprings through! The fans cheer while Knight strikes a pose, but Hook runs up! Knight arm-drags Hook, then arm-drags again, but Hook avoids the dropkick! The fans boo as Hook scrambles to the corner.
Knight taunts Hook & Shibata, but Shibata coaches Hook up. Hook kicks low, ROCKS Knight, then fires body shots and backhands in the corner! Knight turns things around to return the body shots and forearms! Knight UPPERCUTS, the fans fire up, but Hook avoids the haymaker! Hook fires more body shots, then a HEADBUTT! Hook wobbles, too, but he still soaks up heat from the fans. Hook stalks Knight to a corner, brings him around to whip, but Knight grabs ropes to stop. Knight DUMPS Hook out, then DROPKICKS him down! Shibata coaches Hook, Knight aims to PLANCHA, but Hook dodges!
Shibata stands in the way, Knight asks what’s up, but Shibata runs up! Knight dodges, goes up the steps, but Hook dodges that! EXPLODER into the fans! The other fans cheer as Knight is down, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Hook soaks up more heat as he swaggers around the way, but the ref checks Knight. Knight rises up but the ref has Hook stay back. That just lets Shibata DUMP Knight to ringside! And even stomp him! Hook argues with the ref as a further distraction so Shibata can stand Knight up. Hook KNEES Knight, then whips him hard into railing! Hook CLUBS Knight, soaks up heat, then goes to the ring. Hook argues with the ref more, but that lets Shibata line up a shot! Shibata BOOTS Knight into the crowd! The fans cheer again, they don’t mind Collision being interactive. Shibata puts Knight in for Hook to cover, TWO!
Hook is frustrated but Shibata coaches him up. Hook drags Shibata up, but Knight fires body shots! Knight ROCKS Hook, shakes out his hand then runs, only for Hook to follow! Hook CLOBBERS Knight, covers, TWO! Shibata argues the count but no, it was fair. Hook clamps onto Knight with a SLEEPER! Knight endures, even as Hook leans on him. Knight fights around, reaches out, then fires body shots! Collision returns to single picture as the fans rally. Knight fires shots, Hook shoves, but Knight returns! STAELLITE- NORTHERN LIGHTS! Bridging cover, TWO! Knight survives and Hook is furious!
Hook hauls Knight up, fires body shots, then ROCKS Knight. Hook whips corner to corner, but Knight comes back to LARIAT! The fans fire up as Knight keeps going, SHOULDER TACKLE! Knight whips, Hook reverses, but Knight goes up and over! Knight comes back, LEAPING LARIAT! Hook sputters away but Knight kips up! The fans fire up and Knight runs up to scoop and SLAM! The fans cheer as Knight says “TOO FLY!” UFO SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Hook survives but the fans still rally behind Knight. Shibata coaches Hook and Hook rises up. Knight also stands, and Knight runs up, SATELLITE- NO, Hook powers free!
Hook goes to a corner, Knight runs up and blocks a boot! Knight ROCKS Hook, hoists him up top, but Hook kicks Knight away. Knight returns to the UPPER ROOM! Hook goes tumbling away to the far corner! Shibata is worried but Knight grins. Knight says this is for Shibata-sensei! HYDRAULIC DROPKICK! The fans cheer Knight using Shibata’s signature, and that just pisses Shibata off! Knight puts Hook in the drop zone but Hook grabs at the ref. Knight climbs up, but Shibata shakes the ropes! The fans boo as that trips Knight up!

Winner: Kevin Knight, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)
Hook tried to take this title, even had Shibata-sensei there to tip the scales, but it just wasn’t enough to stop The Jet from taking off! But will Knight soon make himself a double champion? Or will Darby Allin’s relentless reign not stop just yet?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision to follow a great Dynamite, but naturally status quo is kept with all these title matches. I liked the Jurassic Express National Tour vignette, and that was an awesome match in Jack VS Dorada. Anna Jay also looked great in her return, but of course Willow wins to keep the TBS title. Good promo from after Dynamite with Kris being rightfully angry with Shida, and good promo from #Shidalander with Harley & Mina. I feel like they can do a two-in-one, where Shidalander falls apart to set up their feud, while also giving Harley & Mina reason to become a team to help bolster the Women’s Tag Division.
Speaking of, very good promo from Divine Dominion to address how they’re dominating the division. There are only so many teams in the tag division so we need an influx of more, maybe have some crossover with Stardom and CMLL real quick, really spice things up as we get closer to Forbidden Door. Skye Blue of course won, and pretty dominantly at that. I can’t tell if Julia Hart is resting from an injury or what but she wasn’t even ringside for Skye, hopefully things are alright. Very fun trios match from Conglomeration VS MXM TV, great win for Conglomeration, but AEW needs to figure out more trios. Putting Ciampa with FTR is still a great team, but they gotta get longer running teams going, like LFI or maybe even Shane Taylor Promotions.
Awesome stuff with that 10 Man Tag, so wild and chaotic in a good way, but I figured Death Riders & Dogs would win. The Dogs need to stay afloat without Gabe Kidd as their anchor, and there’s the whole story with Ospreay that Death Riders need to stay strong for. Great tag match from Yuta & Garcia VS Ace & Juice, too, and great win for Bang Bang Gang. Especially with a return from Austin & Colten Gunn, because now we can get Bang Bang Gang VS Death Riders in an 8 Man Tag, someone going after the Continental Championship for it, who knows what else. For that matter, Bang Bang Gang needs to get back in those tag and trios divisions to at least bolster the ranks.
And great main event with the TNT Championship. Hook looked good for most of this, but the German Suplex was a bit janky. Thankfully, Knight is so tall and athletic that he made himself look even cooler in his escape. Knight of course won, mostly because it is more exciting if he has a chance of becoming Jet Two Belts. He won’t, because Darby and MJF are still building towards their rematch for Double or Nothing, but Knight will look awesome again. If anything, Knight VS Shibata should be the TNT title match for Double or Nothing, that’s a great story of student and teacher they can easily reference in the build.
My Score: 8.9/10
