PLAY BY PLAY
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
The fans are already fired up as Tony welcomes us to AEW Dynamite in New Orleans! “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome with me to begin this program, multi-platinum recording artist, entrepreneur, and University of New Orleans’ own ‘Coach P,’ ladies and gentlemen, MASTER P!” The fans fire up again as indeed, THE Master P, the hip hop legend and the owner of House of Glory Wrestling, makes his way to the ring! P says what up New Orleans! It’s AEW Dynamite, UNHHH~! It is his pleasure to introduce to us the NEW AEW World Trios Champions, THE OPPS! “Make ’em say UNHHH~!”
The fans cheer even more as Samoa Joe, Katsuyori Shibata and “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs make their way out, wearing those University of New Orleans Pirates colors! Samoa Joe gets himself a mic to say, “Lemme try that one one time. Make ’em say UNHHH~!” “UNHHH~!” “Nana nana!” Master P says it is about to get rowdy rowdy, ’bout it ’bout it! Joe says yes, sir! It is good to be here tonight! Because you see, The Opps have come to celebrate. The fans like the sound of that! Joe says before that, props to big brother Master P. Joe thanks P for the introductions, and for everything he does for this great city. Joe appreciates it, he knows the people appreciate.
Joe says BigBlueUNO.com, see what P is doing for the student athletes here. Master P says there’s always love for the student athletes. Master P is Coach P, there’s nothing but love for this city. Joe says that’s a good thing, because they love New Orleans, too. When they thought about the best city to celebrate a championship win, it’s right here in New Orleans! But wait, the Death Riders are here to ruin the fun. Well, Marina Shafir comes out from the back, but Wheeler Yuta rushes in from the ramp! He CLOBBERS Shibata, Claudio CLOBBERS Hobbs, and Moxley uses the briefcase to CLOBBER Joe! The fans boo and Master P can’t believe it!
Claudio drags Hobbs out, Yuta keeps after Shibata, and then Hobbs is sent into steel steps! Moxley CHOKES Joe, Marina is there to hold Joe down, and then Moxley stomps Joe! The fans boo but Master P stands his ground! The fans cheer on the coach but this is still a 3v1 situation. Moxley steps to Master P, and then Master P chuckles…? Because JOE IS BACK UP! Joe has the COQUINA CLUTCH on Moxley! Shibata and Hobbs drag Yuta & Claudio from the ring to fire in return! Master P even gets some shots on Mox! The fans fire up as the tables have turned on the Death Riders! P laughs as Moxley goes out, again!
Master P says this is New Orleans, right? They want all the smoke! This about to be a problem. Go ahead, put ’em to sleep! But wait, The Elite rushes out here! And Matthew Jackson has a chair! He SMACKS Joe down to free Moxley! Master P hurries out of there now, there’s a lot more going on. The fans boo as the Death Riders turn the tables back around. The Bucks say you’re welcome, Moxley. But then Marina steps in and keeps Moxley from retaliating, And then “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE! The fans fire up as now the Realest is on the scene! Joe gets back up again, The Elite retreat now that things are getting complicated.
But then Kenny Omega makes his way out here! And The Cleaner has a chair of his own! The Elite scurry after where The Death Riders made their exit! The fans fire up as AEW International Champion stands with the World Trios Champions and the Most Dangerous Man in AEW. Then these five look to each other, and Joe grabs the mic again. “In respect to whose house it is, nice to see you again, brother. I will say this: JON MOXLEY! You wanted me, now you have me. I’m gonna beat your ass, choke you out, and ladies and gentlemen, I’ll be taking back my AEW World Championship.” The mission statement has been issued, but will all part of “Team AEW V3” be okay with that?
Backstage interview with The Patriarchy.
Renee Paquette is with Christian Cage, Kip Sabian, Mother Shayna, and the youngest ever singles champion in ROH or AEW history, the NEW ROH World Television Champion, Nick Wayne. A huge congratulations to Nick, but Christian says actually, the congratulations should all go to him. He even takes the belt from Nick! Christian says Nick would agree that if not for The Patriarch, Nick would not be standing here the champion. Because Christian is the one who forced Nick to step out of his shell, find himself, spread his wings and truly become what it is Christian’s always known Nick to be, and that’s The Prodigy.
Christian still says they’re all proud of Nick. They all celebrated. In fact, Christian and Shayna celebrated Nick’s victory extensively, later that night. Nick scowls but Christian says, “Do you see what happens, Nick, when you listen? When you shut your mouth, you open your ears, and you actually listen to me?! Good things happen, and I always tell the truth, don’t I?” Nick asks Christian if he sees what happens when you actually stick to the plan: You actually win championships. Nick tries to take his belt back, but Christian holds onto it. Christian then willingly gives it over, and says, “I love my family.”
Christian storms off, and neither Kip nor Shayna is really sure what to make of this. Is there about to be a new head of the household now that Nick’s standing up for himself?
Ricochet VS Mark Briscoe!
The One & Only is brushing off the losses that have plagued him in hopes of reaching his goal of gold in AEW. However, will he #ReachForTheSky against the Sussex County Chicken? Or can Ricochet #ManUp against the former ROH World Heavyweight Champion?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. The two circle, the fans taunt Ricochet with, “OH~ Ricochet’s Bald~!” Ricochet is annoyed, and he goes out to bond with the fan in the front row who is also bald! He claims everyone else is making fun of this guy, too! In fact, isn’t Mark bald? Why aren’t people talking Mark for being bald?! The fans chant, “You Aren’t Mark! You Aren’t Mark!” The two tie up, Ricochet powers Mark back, but Mark turns things around to corner Ricochet. The ref has Mark back off and the fans rally up. Ricochet and Mark reset, feel things out, but Ricochet goes to the ropes for defense.
The fans boo but Mark waits on Ricochet. Ricochet and Mark circle, feel things out, but again Ricochet is in a corner. The ref backs Mark off, and then Ricochet runs up! But Mark blocks a shot to fire hands in return! Mark keeps Ricochet from escaping to ROCK him again! And again!

Knight then checks on Mark. Mark is alright, and the fans cheer. We even see Rock ‘n’ Roll Express here! They cheer on Mark, will Mark soon be headed for new title opportunities?
Tony Schiavone is back in the ring.
He welcomes us back to the show, but just as he’s about to begrudgingly welcome out FTR, he is interrupted by Stokely Hathaway! Big Stoke says there has been a change of plans, and he’s got this now. “They are living legends. Top guys! TEN TIME World Tag Team Champions! New Orleans, give it up for F T R!” The fans boo, but the music hits and Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler make their way out, walking with Stokely to the ring. FTR shake hands with Schiavone, and Stokely reintroduces himself. He will address the elephant in the room. FTR were suspended and fined for accidentally hitting someone, and simply touching Tony Schiavone?
That is interesting to Stokely, because there are other people who have literally set people on fire. Hangman Page has committed arson! Ricochet decides to come to work and shanks people with scissors! And should we even list all of Moxley’s crimes? Stokely will. Acts of terrorism, kidnapping, extortion, and all to FTR, yet he walks around here unpunished. That is unjust! But do not worry, that’s why Stokely is here. Stokely says that suspension will be expunged from their permanent records. Those fines will be reimbursed, based on the very public, ugly, and nasty way this has all played out.
Moving forward, if you wanna have a conversation with the Top Guys, you need to have a conversation with Stokely. As of today, Stokely Hathaway is the new agent for the greatest tag team today, F T R! Now, Schiavone, do your job. Schiavone thanks Stokely, and then holds the mic for FTR. Cash says beautiful work from Stokely. But what happened last week with Daniel Garcia was not an easy decision for them. But “Danny” gave them no choice when he made his own decision. The fans boo, Cash says please be polite, he is talking. Don’t forget, it was 2Point0 that got in FTR’s face! It was 2Point0 that came at FTR! It was 2Point0 that wanted a fight!
And from where FTR is from, when you want a fight, you better be ready to fight. And well, 2Point0 wasn’t ready for that fight. Cash has respect for Danny, though. When he asked them to stop, FTR stopped. Danny is FTR’s friend. But then he goes and treats them like that? Don’t forget, Danny, you came to them for help. When every other veteran here left him high and dry and directionless, it was FTR that got Danny to the TNT Championship. FTR put Danny first, they put Cope first, they put AEW first, and that got FTR nothing but disrespect! NO MORE! FTR first from now on! And you’re gonna boo them for that?!
The fans do indeed boo, but Dax steps in. What’s with the hostility? Relax. Speaking of living legends, there are a couple legends in the house right now! Rock ‘n’ Roll Express are here! Dax invites Ricky & Robert to the ring to share the spotlight. Ricky & Robert stand up, the fans cheer, and Dax says c’mon now, we’ve got TV time ticking. Watch your step, we don’t want anyone falling. Rock ‘n’ Roll Express do indeed step into the ring with FTR, Stokely & Schiavone, and Dax tells the fans that if they didn’t cheer FTR, no need to cheer Rock ‘n’ Roll. The fans boo but Dax says one of the greatest teams of all time, Rock ‘n’ Roll Express!
Ricky & Robert have had some of the greatest matches with some of the greatest teams. Which do they feel is their greatest match of all time? Before Ricky or Robert can answer, Dax says it would have to be Philadelphia with the Midnight Express. And to be honest, no shade, but Midnight Express was better. The fans boo, Dax says no, hold on, tonight is going to be about Rock ‘n’ Roll Express. 40 YEARS of Rock ‘n’ Roll Express, they’re still going strong. How old are they? And again, Dax interrupts by saying that he’d have to say just on looks alone, he’d go with 109. And being 109 means they were running hard in the 80s, if you know what he means.
What would they say was their greatest experience in the 80s? Ricky stops Dax from interrupting this time! The fans cheer and Ricky says no more of this. Don’t try and embarrass Ricky & Robert in front of the wrestling world. Stokely steps in and says there doesn’t need to be hostility. This is kinda ironic, but Stokely has something. He has Dax hold his mic, and then he brings out the brand new FTR merch shirt! FTR: Living Legend Killers. This one’s for Ricky. Stokely throws the shirt at Ricky, and then FTR attacks! The fans boo as Cash DECKS Robert, and then Dax reels Ricky in! Cash goes up, MIND BREAKER!!
But here comes The Paragon! FTR runs from Adam Cole, Roderick Strong & Kyle O’Reilly! The Top Guys stoop to new lows, but will The Paragon make sure FTR get the worst of it?
The Young Bucks VS Kevin Knight & “Speedball” Mike Bailey!
We saw Matthew & Nicholas Jackson earlier tonight try and again ingratiate themselves to the Death Riders, only to be reminded they have many more enemies than friends. But this match is really only because The Jet & Speedball went a little overboard with their celebration last week, what with the $400,000 and The Opps winning the World Trios Championships. Will The Bucks be a couple of buzzkills? Or will they still throw a Superkick Party?
The teams sort out and Matt starts against Bailey. The fans cheer as the two circle. Bailey trips Matt, things speed up, and Matt stays low. Mike handsprings, then bypasses Matt to drop down and hurdle over! Matt leaps over, but Bailey ducks a kick! Matt ducks a kick, and then DOUBLE SUPERKICKS hook each other! The fans fire up as the two hop around, but Nick runs in and CLOBBERS Bailey! Knight storms in but Nick kicks and CLUBS him down! The fans boo the Bucks, but they bring their opponents up. The Bucks double whip, but Knight & Bailey duck ‘n’ dodge, only for The Bucks to DOUBLE BACK ELBOW!
The Bucks double kip up and soak up the heat as they hit their classic pose. But then Knight & Bailey are up! They spin The Bucks around, Bailey SOBATS Nick but Matt ROCKS Knight! Matt throat chops Bailey! Matt whips Knight, but Bailey gives him the boost for the CROSSBODY! Then they TOSS Matt out onto Nick! The fans fire up as Knight & Bailey say #2Fly! DOUBLE PLANCHAS take down The Bucks! The fans fire up and high-five with Knight. Knight & Bailey put Matt in, they DOUBLE CHOP, then they double whip. Matt grabs ropes, Knight runs up but Matt TOSSES him! Matt ELBOWS Bailey away, and then Nick PENALTY KICKS Knight!
Bailey runs up, but into Nick’s GAMANGIRI! Matt wheelbarrows Bailey and Nick slingshots in, WHEELBARROW FACEBUSTER COMBO! Then Nick cartwheels and MOONSAULTS onto Knight! Nick soaks up the heat, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The Bucks soak up the heat while Matt paces around Bailey. Matt stomps Bailey to the corner, Nick CLUBS Knight, and then Matt bumps Bailey off buckles. Tag to Nick, and they put Bailey in the ropes for the DRAPING SWANTON BOMB! Cover, TWO! Bailey stays in this, and we see Knight returning to the corner. Nick runs to KNEE Bailey in the back! Nick stays between Bailey and Knight while mockingly holding out Bailey’s hand to Knight. Nick then gets in Knight’s face, and the ref has to keep Knight from rushing after Nick! Nick claps to fake the tag, and Matt runs up to stomp Bailey down! Matt CHOKES Bailey, all while the ref argues with Knight!
Matt stops choking Bailey to then drag him back to the corner. Tag to Nick, and The Bucks CATAPULT GAMANGIRI, and then DOUBLE STOMP BACKBREAKER! Nick taunts Knight more, then drags Bailey to a cover, TWO! Bailey is still in this but Nick stays on him with buckle bumps. Nick then scrapes Bailey’s face against the ropes! Nick stops to soak up the heat, and then he drags Bailey into a facelock. Bailey endures, fights up, and fires body shots! Bailey runs, but Nick WHEEL KICKS him down! Cover, TWO! Nick drags Bailey back into a facelock and he grinds Bailey down. The fans rally, Bailey fights up, and Dynamite returns to single picture.
Knight coaches Bailey up, but Nick suplexes! Bailey cradle counters, TWO! Nick runs up, but into a ROUNDHOUSE! Both men are down, Bailey and Nick crawl, hot tag to Matt! Nick then BLASTS Knight, and the fans boo while Matt brushes him off dismissively. The Bucks drag Bailey up, double whip, but Bailey handsprings! The Bucks get clear, but Bailey dodges their double lariat to BOOT Matt! Bailey dodges Nick to fire LIGHTNING KICKS! ENZIGIRI! The fans fire up as Bailey crawls! Nick also goes for the corner, hot tags to Matt and Knight! Knight dodges Matt to BLAST Nick! And then Knight rallies on Matt!
Knight whips, Matt reverses, but Knight goes up and over, comes back and LARIATS! The fans fire up with Knight, and he runs in at the corner! STRINGER SPLASH! Whip and LARIAT in the corner! Then a whip, but Matt wrenches. Knight dodges Matt to pop him up and SLAM! UFO SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Knight waits on Matt, then somersaults for a DD- NO, Matt turns satellite DDT into NORTHERN LIGHTS! The Polar Express gets going as Matt NORTHERN LIGHTS again! Bailey runs up, but he just gets added to a DOUBLE NORTHERN LIGHTS! The fans boo but Nick cheers Matt on. Matt runs up, and he blocks Bailey’s boots!
Matt puts Bailey in the ropes, Nick GAMANGIRIS, and then Matt SUPERKICKS Knight! Nick goes out, Matt drags Knight out along the ropes. Nick is up, DRAPING DOUBLE STOMP BOMB for Knight, and Nick somersaults through to DRAPING BACKSTABBER Bailey! Cover on Knight, TWO!! Knight survives and Matt mockingly applauds. Matt says that’s good stuff. The fans rally and Knight rises, but Matt smiles. Matt brings Knight up, but Knight JAWBREAKERS free! Hot tag to Bailey! But Matt fakes him out to DDT!

Backstage interview with Toni Storm.
Renee is now with the Timeless AEW Women’s World Champion, as well as butler Luther, and notes that tonight, it is Kris Statlander VS Jamie Hayter in the Women’s Owen Hart Tournament Semifinals. Renee also notes that Toni has been watching everyone in this tournament very closely. Toni says, “And why shouldn’t I? These are the preeminent individuals in our entire industry. So ladies, good luck. Pound your flesh, rip your tits, but don’t you dare get any blood on my pearls. And remember: You are now watching your feature presentation.” Renee says speaking of feature presentations, this weekend in Hollywood, Toni will be on the red carpet for the TCM Film Festival.
Toni says yes, some new little science fiction film. Renee says it’s Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Toni says there’s not an empire big enough to strike her back. But remember, she is a lover and a fighter. She isn’t just going to spend this weekend cucking around with Ben Mankiewicz! She has an idea! Toni grabs her title and stands up on top of a chair. “Attention, slop tarts! This Saturday on Collision, I’m going to have a Championship Eliminator Performance! So if there’s any b*tch that has the itch-” Oh, Queen Aminata steps up immediately. She says she’s back, and you know she likes to fight. So, let’s do this.
Toni says, “No, no, darling. It’s… Let’s make cinema!” Toni has Luther carry her away, but will Playoff Palooza end up an underdog sports story?
The Hurt Syndicate is here!
New Orleans fires up and sings along, “We Hurt~ People!” as Montel Vontavious Porter, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin make their way to the ring. MVP holds up a fan’s sign that says, “WE HURT PEOPLE,” then he grabs a mic. “Attention, AEW viewing audience. This is an official announcement from The Hurt Syndicate. On behalf of the Standard of Excellence, Shelton Benjamin, and the All Mighty, Bobby Lashley, we are the Hurt Syndicate, and we hurt people.” The fans cheer that! MVP says in fact, they’re so good at that, that every single tag team they’ve faced for these AEW World Tag Team Championships haven’t been back!
MVP says they’re all home healing up. Then the Gates of Agony stepped up, and they said they like to be hurt? That’s a silly thing to say to two of the most dangerous men on the planet! But they obliged, and they hurt those two. You will not be seeing The Gates of Agony in the near future. But perhaps you will see them eventually, because Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona are hungry young lions and they will return. Now is just not their time. This time right now, MVP will hand the mic over to Lashley, because he has a few things he’d like to say. The fans cheer that! MVP passes the mic to Lashley, but then an engine starts revving.
MVP sighs as we see a fancy sports car pull into the parking lot. And out steps none other than Maxwell Jacob Friedman. MJF tells a guy to keep it running for him, then nut taps him on the way out! MJF laughs at his own prank, and even says, “What a do*che.” MJF heads to gorilla, and that means he makes his entrance! Lashley smirks because of course MJF is making his way out here. MJF has a mic to say cut his music. The fans cheer MJF on, and MJF tells the Hurt Syndicate, “Gentlemen, I know… Hell, we all know you had a good time last week, okay? And if you guys wanna have a good time for the rest of your lives, all I need are three thumbs up. That’s it.”
MJF waits, and MVP says okay, let’s try this one more time. MVP says we know how he feels, he is still thumbs up. The fans cheer for “THREE THUMBS UP! THREE THUMBS UP!” Shelton is no longer intimidated by Lashley, and he gives the thumbs up! MJF is excited, but Shelton denies him the hug. Shelton tells MJF that to make this real clear, this isn’t a thumbs up because of “a bunch of broads and a watch.” The only reason Shelton gave MJF a thumbs up is because of MVP, so don’t forget that. MJF says of course! He loves Montel! We ALL love Montel, right? The fans cheer! MJF says, “We also love our good friend, Bob!”
The fans cheer for “BOB! BOB! BOB!” and MJF says c’mon, let’s see it. Lashley holds out his hand, but MJF says hold on, hold on, he has a feeling he knows where Lashley is going with this. So please, give him one more second. MJF knows Lashley has his reservations, but if he’s in the Syndicate, then they’ll get all the money, the power, the respect, and the gold! Lashley brings a lot to the table, but with all due respect, there are things MJF brings to the table that Lashley does not. MJF knows AEW better than anybody. MJF knows how to cut corners better than anybody! And he knows how to win by any means necessary better than anybody.
If they let MJF in, they don’t just run AEW, they run professional wrestling! MVP says that’s a good point. MJF says he knows they got off on the wrong foot, but really, that’s not MJF’s fault. But, but, but…! MJF is willing to admit as Salt of the Earth, he’s been a bit prickly over the rejections. So MJF wants Lashley to know, from the bottom of his heart, two words he’s never said before… “I’m sor…” MJF trails off and the fans chant, “Say You’re Sorry!” MJF says he is, okay? Shut up! “Bob…! I’m sorry!” MJF gets it out and the fans cheer! MJF catches his breath and then Lashley holds up his hand. MJF panics and says before Lashley puts the thumb down…!
Did Lashley see the car he drove here in? Did they like that car? If Lashley gives a thumbs up, that car is his! MVP says that’s another good offer. Lashley chuckles and says he needs the keys. Of course! But they’re in the back, so we gotta take a walk. Okay, let’s go take a walk. MJF says we’re taking a walk! The fans cheer as MJF leads the way back to the parking lot. MJF tells the fans they’re as tough to look at as they’ve been lovely, so thank you. But will the keys to that incredible car be the key to MJF joining the Hurt Syndicate?
MJF and the Hurt Syndicate arrive in the parking lot.
MJF has the valet hand the keys back, and MJF has them look at this beauty. Talk about horsepower! It is gorgeous! Lashley takes the keys, steps into the driver’s seat, and Shelton joins him at shotgun. MJF asks for a thumbs up, but Lashley just drives away! Thumbs… DOWN?!? MJF just got tricked! MVP has MJF calm down and says you gotta give the people what they want. MJF grits his teeth as he tells Lashley to have fun with the car… But if it isn’t gifts that will win The All Mighty over, what must MJF give him?
Backstage interview with Hangman Page.
Renee is with the once again Anxious Millennial Cowboy, and she notes that was a huge victory for Hangman in the Owen Hart Tournament. Hangman beat the wild card, Josh Alexander, and is now set to face Kyle Fletcher next week in the semifinals held in Norfolk, Virginia. Kyle viciously attacked last week, so how is- “The MOMENT that I see Kyle Fletcher, I am going to put his ass in the ground! And it looks like somebody wants to get in here, so get your ass in here.” MJF steps in and says, “Howdy, Cowboy. How you been? You look great. By the way, I wanted to compliment you on your new haircut. I love that it makes it look like you met your wife at a family reunion.”
Hangman says MJF hasn’t changed anything about himself since he was 12 years old. But Hangman is in the middle of an interview, so unless MJF has something of substance to add, he should just get in his car and- Oh…! Right, we just saw what happened there. MJF sarcastically laughs that off, and says it’s “Joke Man” Adam Page. Here’s a joke for him: Guy enters the Owen Hart Tournament, only to then watch MJF stroll on in through the backdoor with the Hurt Syndicate to reclaim what is rightfully his and become a TWO-TIME AEW World Champion. Hangman says like MJF knows anything about the backdoor.
MJF’s whole plan is to use Hurt Syndicate, but how does that get him an inch closer to the world title? But maybe after Hangman beat MJF’s ass at Revolution, MJF had to figure something out because he knows he can’t win matches, and he knows he can’t hang with Hangman. MJF says wow, first of all, of course Hangman doesn’t understand his intentions with The Hurt Syndicate, Hangman’s an idiot. Second of all, Hangman wants to act high and might because he beat MJF, well check the math, they’re 1-1. If they ever do face off again, MJF sends Seabiscuit to the glue factory where he belongs.
And third of all, the personal favorite for MJF: Hangman thinks he’s a badass for being in the Owen Hart Cup? Hangman is a great wrestler, MJF will not take that away from him. But if Hangman does manage to get to the finals, he’ll just do what he does best, and that’s choke. MJF leaves, Hangman shouts he has something for MJF to choke on! Dumbass! Hangman storms off, but will he make it through the semifinals? Or will the Aussie Arrow make sure Hangman can’t go Double or Nothing?
Josh Alexander & Konosuke Takeshita w/ Don Callis Family VS Will Ospreay & Brody King!
Speaking of the Owen Hart Cup, the Walking Weapon lost to The Cowboy, and the Alpha lost to the Aerial Assassin in their epic semifinal showdown. But now the Don Callis Family is hoping to change the odds at Double or Nothing using brute force! Will Alexander & Takeshita make the Family proud? Or will the #BillyGOAT and King of Death be a truly killer combo?
The teams sort out and Ospreay starts against Takeshita to start where they left off from last time! The fans fire up as the two circle, and Callis of course joins commentary. Ospreay and Konosuke feel things out, only for Alexander to CLOBBER Ospreay from behind! Konosuke BLASTS Brody off the apron, the ref reprimands, but the Don Callis Family mug Ospreay. They double whip, DOUBLE ELBOW, then stand Ospreay up for DOUBLE BACK SUPLEXES! They shake hands, and then DOUBLE ELBOW DROP! Takeshita flexes, then he drags Ospreay up.

And CHOPS! And then he stands on Alexander’s neck! Ospreay asks for a tag, Brody chops him as a tag! Ospreay says okay, thanks… Ospreay steps in, Alexander JABS but Ospreay CHOPS!
Ospreay whips, Alexander grabs the ropes, but Ospreay runs up, only for Alexander to put him on the apron. Ospreay ROCKS Alexander, takes aim, but Konosuke anchors Ospreay’s legs! Konosuke sits Ospreay down and Alexander CROSSBODIES! The fans boo but Callis and Lance Archer like what they see, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Callis whispers something to Konosuke before Konosuke rolls into the ring. Alexander looms over Ospreay, holds him up, and Konosuke distracts the ref, allowing Callis to get a cheap shot in! Callis is giddy as he goes back to commentary. Alexander then storms in and he stomps Ospreay around. Alexander stalks Ospreay, CHOPS him, then Konosuke CHOKES Ospreay in the corner! The ref reprimands, but Alexander scoops and SLAMS Osprey! Tag to Konosuke and he goes up to SUPER SENTON! Cover, TWO! Konosuke drags Ospreay up, reels him in, and Ospreay endures the COBRA TWIST! The ref checks on Ospreay, but that lets Konosuke link up with Alexander!
The ref looks and sees what they’re up to, so Alexander lets go. Konosuke scoops Ospreay for a BACKBREAKER! Tag to Alexander, he stalks Ospreay, and he steps on Ospreay’s foot to keep him from Brody. Alexander then stomps the ankle! Alexander grabs a leg, twists Ospreay’s ankle, then he JAMS the leg up! Ospreay hobbles away, but he still CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! But Alexander dropkicks the bad leg! Ospreay falls in a heap, and Alexander fishhooks him into sitting up! Alexander CLUBS Ospreay in the chest, soaks up the heat, and then he stalks Ospreay to ropes. Konosuke is there to CHOKE Ospreay again!
The ref reprimands, Konosuke stops, and Alexander argues with the ref. Konosuke HOTSHOTS Ospreay! Ospreay staggers away, the ref keeps Brody back, and Alexander drags Ospreay up to UPPERCUT! Ospreay staggers to a corner, Alexander UPPERCUTS him again! Ospreay falls, Alexander clamps on a chinlock! Dynamite returns to single picture and the fans rally up. Ospreay fights up to fire body shots, then he reaches out to Brody. The fans rally, Alexander holds Ospreay back, but Ospreay fires a forearm! Ospreay still reaches out, but Alexander still holds on! Ospreay fires another forearm, and another, but Alexander ducks the shot!
Alexander waistlocks but Ospreay fights the lift. Ospreay backs Alexander down but Konosuke tags in. Konosuke taunts Brody, then runs up, but Ospreay BOOTS him! Ospreay ELBOWS Alexander, then ROCKS Konosuke, and repeat! The fans rally, but Konosuke kicks low. Konosuke & Alexander double whip, but Ospreay handsprings to DOUBLE PELE! The fans fire up and Ospreay crawls, hot tag to Brody! Brody BOOTS Konosuke, then LARIATS Alexander! Brody SPLASHES Konosuke in a corner, then he BACKDROPS Alexander! Brody storms up on Konosuke, whips, but Konosuke reverses and kicks low.
The fans chant “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” while Konosuke runs, ducks ‘n ‘dodges, but the SOUTHPAW LARIAT finds him! The fans fire up while Konosuke bails out. Brody roars, and builds speed!? Brody DIVES and takes out Alexander & Konosuke! The fans fire up as Brody then drags them both up, brings them around the way, and makes them sit in the same chair. Alexander is on Konosuke’s lap, and Brody CHOPS Alexander! Seems like Konosuke still felt the force of it through Alexander. Brody gets space, and New Orleans barks along. Brody runs back in, and he CROSSBODIES them against the barriers!
Brody puts Konosuke in the ring, then runs corner to corner to LARIAT! Ospreay tags in and Brody fireman’s carries! DOUBLE STOMP into a DEATH VALLEY BACKBREAKER! Cover, Alexander breaks it in time! Brody TOSSES Alexander, but Alexander drags him out! Brody runs up, but he’s sent into the steel steps! Ospreay lines up a shot, but Konosuke reels him in! Ospreay fights Blue Thunder with elbows, then he ROCKS Konosuke with forearm after forearm! But an ALPHA ELBOW hits back! Konosuke runs, but into the TIGER WALL KICK! ENZIGIRI! Ospreay whips Konosuke, Konosuke reverses, but Ospreay handsprings again, but into BLUE THUNDER BOMB!! Cover, TWO!!
The fans are thunderous as Ospreay survives! Konosuke and Ospreay are both down, and a standing count begins. Archer coaches Alexander while Ospreay and Konosuke crawl. New Orleans tells off Callis himself, but we get hot tags to Alexander and Brody! Alexander BOOTS Brody, BOOTS him again, then he blocks a chop to wrench, KICK, ROCK, and reel Brody in! But Brody’s too much to lift! Brody wrenches out, takes a swing, but Alexander dodges. Brody SWATS a lariat, CHOPS and ROLLING ELBOWS, then he LARIATS point blank! Cover, TWO!! Alexander survives but Brody just snarls. The fans bark it up as Brody storms around.
Brody runs corner to corner, CANNONBALL! Cover, but Archer distracts the ref! Brody is furious, and he BLASTS Archer off the apron! But an ALPHA ELBOW finds him! Ospreay runs up, Konosuke dodges, kicks and whips, but Ospreay dodges to DIVE onto Archer! Ospreay hurries back up, he ROCKS Konosuke, and then PIP PIP- NO, Konosuke dodges and Alexander ROCKS Ospreay with a haymaker! Alexander reels Ospreay in, POWERBOMB! Then Konosuke runs at Brody, HELLUVA KICK! GERMAN SUPLEX!! Alexander is there, he GERMAN SUPLEXES Brody now! Alexander holds on, ripcords, DOUBLE ROLLING ELBOW!!

Winners: Josh Alexander & Konosuke Takeshita, by pinfall
Give a few assists to Don Callis and Lance Archer, but the family that cheats together wins together! And then they beat up on Brody just because! Ospreay slides in, he fires off on Konosuke, but Alexander is after him! Now Ospreay is getting mugged, and they feed Ospreay to Archer’s CHOKE SLAM!! Archer scares the ref off, and here comes Kyle Fletcher! The Protostar always loves seeing his former friend get beat up, and he joins the Don Callis Family in the ring.

Kyle is ready, but will he shoot down the Cowboy to get one more match with Ospreay? Or will the Buckshot be Hangman’s ace in the hole?

Jamie is already getting annoyed as she stands back up. The two stare down, then they both throw forearms! And the both BOOT! And then they both SHOULDER TACKLE!

Jamie bumps Kris off buckles, stomps her, then whips. Kris reverses, wrenches, ROCKS, and then runs to go up the corner! Jamie catches Kris first! Kris uses that to wheelbarrow Jamie into buckles!

Jamie says no no no, that’s gonna be hers. These two are just one month away from going Double or Nothing, who wins it all in Arizona?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here, with strong build in all the stories that they’ve got going right now. Great opening segment with Schiavone bringing out Master P, Master P bringing out The Opps, and then all that causing The Death Riders to show up. Good brawl there, and that was fun having Master P laugh at Moxley being choked out. But then good move having The Elite show up, that works for the story of The Elite still trying to join forces with The Death Riders. But then Swerve and Omega showing up was also good. With the news that Moxley VS Joe is now for Beach Break, I am very certain we’re getting Stadium Stampede/Anarchy in the Arena for Double or Nothing. Seeing The Opps, Omega & Swerve together, that’s just a natural Team AEW for this time around.
Similarly, very good promo stuff with Schiavone inviting out FTR. I’m a little surprised Stokely Hathaway is back as FTR’s manager, but at least he’s getting to do something. Very good promo from FTR, Passive Aggressive Dax is pretty funny. And then FTR turning on Rock ‘n’ Roll Express, that was wild. The Paragon showing up was good stuff, and we’ll get a great match of FTR VS Roddy & Kyle. Also, I guess it really is official, Cole-Roddy-Kyle are The Paragon, and “The Kingdom” returns to just being Taven & Bennett. And while prerecorded so that they can play it between NBA games on Saturday, Playoff Palooza looks like a lot of fun.
Ricochet VS Mark Briscoe was a great match that wasn’t quite so outta-nowhere, given last week’s big money 8 Man Tag. Good win for Mark, but of course Ricochet attacked him. Kevin Knight making the save was good, and it helped give us the finish to Knight’s tag match against The Bucks. That tag match was bordering on PPV quality, but it makes sense Ricochet would cheat Knight as payback. Knight VS Ricochet definitely needs to happen next week before Knight has to go back to Japan for Best of the Super Juniors. And in the meantime, perhaps Ricochet and Bailey can feud as a holdover until Knight gets back in the Summer.
Great promo from MVP to put over the Gates of Agony, and great stuff with MJF and the Hurt Syndicate. I could just tell Lashley was gonna get the better of MJF with that car deal. This is definitely going to boil down to how Lashley might actually want a world title shot, making the whole thing of MJF joining a moot point. Great promo between MJF and Hangman, one of them will definitely cost the other something, and it is definitely more likely MJF costs Hangman against Kyle or Ospreay in the tournament. Another great tag match tonight with Ospreay & Brody VS Konosuke & Alexander.
The Don Callis Family of course cheated to get their win, and also great beatdown stuff after. Hangman wanting after Kyle was good stuff, and with the Don Callis Family standing tall, there’s a very big chance that it ends up Ospreay VS Hangman for Double or Nothing. For one, as I just said, MJF can cost Hangman. Also, we’ve gotten plenty of Ospreay VS Fletcher lately, we can give them time before they fight again. Great promo from Toni to issue an open challenge and have it immediately answered by Aminata. Maybe they’re doing this now that they went and changed the ROH PPV schedule, and that kinda screws up when and where Aminata VS Deeb was going to happen…
Then great main event of Kris VS Jamie. I am legit surprised it was Jamie winning to face Mone, I really thought Kris was going to make that push to the top. Mone VS Jamie will still be awesome, and it’d still be great to see Toni VS Jamie again after all this time, but it still feels like Toni VS Mone ends up the All In match, even though I still argue we should be getting Mone VS Athena so that Athena can be on the big PPV in her hometown. Though, I guess if Supercard of Honor is going to be in Texas, that’s supposed to make things up to The Fallen Goddess when she deserves the bigger stage.
My Score: 8.9/10

March 15th, it will be a dream come true. Andrade tells Bandido that he hears Bandido is one of the best Mexican wrestlers alive! But what he’s seeing… This is just a fan! Does he want to fight? Or does he want a selfie? Maybe they can take one now.
Andrade takes out his phone, but it turns out someone is calling him. See you at Revolution. Andrade walks off to answer the call, but will he learn the hard way to take Bandido seriously?
The Brawling Birds VS The IInspiration!

Winner: Hangman Page, by pinfall
Did that just set a record!? Hangman puts his jacket back on and grabs a mic to say, “Hey, look. I’ma make this short, cuz his ass ain’t the one I wanted to beat tonight. MAX! I have put my entire future at stake for the chance to do what your parents should’ve done nearly 30 years ago, and taught you a lesson. For years, you have sneered and you have scoffed at me for having what I think is a basic human conscience. But let me warn you: In Texas Death, I have no conscience! Max, I will rip you, I will tear you, and I will only let you lie when I am finished with you. And Max, you are the world champion, so surely, that doesn’t scare you.
“You’ve already shown that you are itching to punch someone in the head with your diamond ring, so why don’t you slip it back on your pinkie, get your dumbass out here now, and show me what good that will do you at Revolution!” The fans cheer that, but MJF says, “Alright, alright, pipe down, pipe down. It’s bad enough I gotta be in this C Tier town, El Paso. But clearly, clearly you’re not very bright, Hangman! Did you not just see me beat your boy, Kevin Knight’s ass? Huh? You all saw it, right? It’s bad enough I gotta listen to you yap next week at the press conference, don’t make me come down there and whoop your ass, too, Cowboy.”
The fans boo, but Hangman says if he’s not gonna do it, then- OH NO! Kyle Fletcher, Kazuchika Okada, and Mark Davis attack Hangman!! The fans boo but MJF gets to smile at Hangman’s pain now. Davis has an ANKLE LOCK on Hangman while Okada & Fletcher stomp away on Hangman! They get Hangman up, CHOKE him on the ropes, then Davis hits the REBOUNDER! The fans boo but Kyle mockingly asks if Hangman liked that. But here comes JetSpeed! Bailey & Knight run the Don Callis Family’s heavy hitters with chairs, but then the Jackal himself appears! Accompanied by Lance Archer, Callis has a mic in hand.
The fans cuss Callis out, but he says, “I have something important to say!” The fans boo, but Callis says he sees Jet Set Rodeo in the ring, and he sees three champions, but he also sees three greedy, entitled Millennial punks! It’s not enough that they have the trios titles, but Hangman wants the world title, Knight wants Okada’s International title, and Speedball, “you little French Canadian puke,” wants after the great Kyle Fletcher and his TNT title. How much is enough? One thing Callis hates is a greedy guy. All he’s heard is about what Jet Set Rodeo wants, but he wants us all to be quiet so he can talk. The fans just boo harder! Callis says be quiet so he can tell you what CALLIS wants!
Callis couldn’t help but hear on Collision last Saturday, what was the term they used? “Any place, any time.” Jet Set Rodeo said they’d defend those titles any place and any time. Well, he has a very important to announcement! See, when he heard that, he got to thinking. He just recently left a conversation with Tony Khan. So any place, any time? The place is EL PASO! The time is TONIGHT’S MAIN EVENT! The AEW World Trios Champions WILL defend those titles against Mark Davis, Kyle Fletcher & Kazuchika Okada! And after they beat Jet Set Rodeo, the trios titles will belong to DON BAH GAWD CALLIS!!
The fans boo, but the fight IS official! Knight is already banged up from losing to MJF, can he, Bailey & Hangman possibly survive Dunkzilla, Protostar & Rainmaker?
Sit-down interview with The Young Bucks and FTR.
Renee Paquette is already in the boardroom with Matt & Nick Jackson, Brandon Cutler helping film this, but they’re the only ones on time. How’re they feeling? Nick says he’s a bit beat up, but- Oh, now Cash Wheeler, Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway arrive, #BigStoke still in his wheelchair. Stoke asks Renee to move over for him. Renee obliges though The Bucks take offense. Renee has everyone calm down, they already signed the No Physicality Agreement for this. Dax says he’s fine, it’s on The Bucks. The AEW World Tag Team Champions take their seats, and Dax says it’s wild to think about. The greatest tag teams of the 21st Century: The Briscoes, The Bucks, and FTR.
Now, FTR bested The Briscoes two-outta-three, and FTR are #DemBoys’ greatest rivals, so… Dax’s thought is, when they best The Bucks again at Revolution, FTR goes down as THE greatest tag team of the millennium! Cash points out that FTR are THREE-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions, but The Bucks are also THREE-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions, so Revolution will finally be chapter closed, book finished, only one will be the best. Nick says yeah, okay, we can go back and forth about accomplishments, but this time is a little different. And do they know why? Because FTR put their hands on the Jackson family!
FTR hit a piledriver on their brother! FTR pushed and shoved their parents! Cash claims self-defense, but Nick knows that’s crap. At Revolution, it won’t be only about winning the titles back, but about revenge for their family! Matt brings up how The Jackson Family was simply ringside when FTR did what they did. Matt’s kids, Nick’s kids, how they felt, it is taking The Bucks everything they have in their souls to not just reach across this desk and beat the living SH*T outta FTR! But it’s okay, it’s okay. They won’t do that now.
No, they’ll do that in Los Angeles at Revolution, in front of their family so they can see The Bucks destroy FTR and leave them in a puddle of piss and blood, when The Bucks take the titles for a record breaking fourth time! Cash says he hopes the family is there, too. Then FTR can teach them another lesson! Things get heated again, Renee has them calm down again, but Cash say The Bucks are clearly not mature enough to handle this rationally. FTR will show themselves out and remove themselves from this troubling situation. Dax says The Bucks are so lucky about the No Physicality Agreement. But uh, Cutler wasn’t part of it.
Dax DECKS Cutler!! The Bucks are angry again, but they check on Cutler. FTR keeps turning up the heat, but will they be the ones burned?
AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Jon Moxley VS Hechicero!
The Maniac is still set for his match with The Alpha in Los Angeles, and he already crossed CLØN off the list. Will Moxley do the same to The Alchemist? Or will Hechicero have just the right formula to turn opportunity into a golden ticket?

Brody King is here!
The King of Death doesn’t really worry about his entrance music, he just grabs a mic on his way into the ring. El Paso barks with him before he says, “SWERVE! You know, I could be like you. I could stand on that announce table for half an hour, telling everybody just how dangerous I am. But I don’t need to do that, because I KNOW that I am the most dangerous man in AEW! So why don’t you get your ass out here and I can prove that tonight!” The fans like that idea! But Prince Nana shows up to tell Brody, “I hear you, alright? I hear you loud and clear. But are you sure you wanna do this, my friend? Are you sure you wanna go down that rabbit hole with the man himself? Are you sure about that, Brody?”
Brody says quit talking, Nana, and bring Swerve’s ass out here. Nana laughs and says okay. “Without further interruption, ladies and gentlemen… May I introduce to you the REAL Most Dangerous Man in AEW… SWERVE! STRICKLAND!” Nana laughs an evil laugh while the music begins, but Swerve doesn’t enter from the stage! HE ATTACKS FROM BEHIND! Swerve uses his chain to BEAT BRODY DOWN!

It’s one thing talking about being the Most Dangerous Man, it’s another actually doing it! And I’m about that action. So guess what? I will be seeing you in LA at Revolution! For your information, and a little reminder, I humbled a man in LA, too.” But then BANDIDO runs out here!
Swerve gets clear before The Outlaw can get at him! The fans boo Swerve but he just smiles seeing what he did to Brody. Will Swerve do far worse to put Brody down for good?
The Death Riders speak.
Daniel Garcia says that’s what they like every single week! Don Callis Family, are you stupid or are you dumb? When you gonna stop picking fights you cannot win!? Wheeler Yuta has Garcia step aside, and Yuta shows off the bald head. “Get a good look, okay?! Losing my hair was the darkest moment of my career. But the Death Riders are the reason I’m not wallowing in my misery. They’re the reason I’m prepared every day for war! Cuz I know when I walk in that arena, and there are thousands of people screaming hurtful, mean, terrible things at me, trying to kick my ass, I know the people I care about most in the world have my back. Through loss, I have freedom.”
Marina then calls out Toni Storm again. “You better shoot from the hip and make me laugh, for your sake. You p*ssy!” Moxley says they all are, aren’t there? A bunch of punk asses! Don Callis Family, CMLL, was THAT the baddest hombre you got? NJPW, all these advertising agencies that got into pro-wrestling! NOBODY does it like they do! No team is like this team! No one is willing to go as long and as far as them! Takeshita, at Revolution, it’s just you and Moxley. And they’re gonna go as long as it takes. They’re gonna see this through all the way to the end. The Death Riders head out, will they take everyone out along the way?

Thekla puts Rosa on the ropes and CHOKES her! The ref counts, Thekla stops at 4 to then pull Rosa’s pigtails. The ref reprimands again but Thekla lets go to soak up heat. Thekla taunts the fans again, but Rosa rolls her up! TWO, but Rosa is right on Thekla. Thekla fires hands on Rosa, then CLUBS her down. Thekla drags Rosa up to snapmare and basement SUPERKICK!

Thekla reels Rosa in for the HANGING HEADSCISSORS! The ref counts, Thekla lets go, and she storms back into the ring. Thekla taunts Rosa, slaps her around, but the fans rally up.

Thekla stumbles to a corner while the fans rally up. Rosa runs corner to corner for the A-LIST LARIAT!
Rosa fires more LARIATS while in the ropes, then she goes up to SWINGING KNEE DROP! Thekla is on the ropes and the fans rally. Rosa says this is for the 915! DROPKICK at the ropes! Then NORTHERN LIGHTS! Bridging cover, TWO! Rosa drags Thekla around, stomps her into the drop zone, then she goes up the corner. The fans rally, but Thekla grins as she stands.

Then she brings Rosa up for the SPIDER SUPERPLEX! The fans cheer as Thekla hangs upside-down.
Thekla sits back up and signals she’ll still be champion. Thekla rolls back into the Spider Stance, then runs at Rosa for the SPIDER SPEAR! Cover, but Thekla lets Rosa up!? Thekla grins as she toys with Rosa, and rains down forearms! The fans boo but Thekla stops to soak up that heat. Thekla drags Rosa up, lines up a shot, and runs, but Rosa avoids the stomp!

Winner: Thekla, by pinfall (still AEW Women’s World Champion)
Rosa brought the fight, but she could not bring home the gold! To her credit, Thekla did this all by herself, and the Sisters of Sin are here to celebrate. But then Kris Statlander shows up, making sure they don’t try anything. Security rushes out here to keep this from popping off, but Thekla just CURB STOMPS Rosa again!! The fans boo, and Kris CHUCKS a guard aside! Kris storms into the ring but Thekla’s already in retreat! The Cosmic Killer couldn’t protect Rosa, but will she be the one to avenge her now?
Jack Perry speaks.
“Last week, to cap off Mile High Madness, I pinned Ricochet for the third time. Now, every time the odds have been even, I beat you. But every time that it’s really counted, instead of fighting me man to man, you and The Gates of Agony have found a way to cheat. We both won battles. Pretty soon, it’s gonna be time for you and I to finish the war.”
Ricochet responds.
The One & Only tells Jack to listen: “Ya boi been jet-setting! I am the most fighting champion in AEW, brother! So if it’s a fight that you want, if it’s a war that you want, then a war you got. Because when you are in Demand, you can make demands.” Kaun adds, “And if you don’t meet our demands…” Toa Liona finishes with, “YOU GET PUT DOWN!” AHA~! Then when and where will Ricochet and Jack Perry finally settle the score?
On-stage interview with Tommaso Ciampa.
Renee Paquette introduces the Psycho Killer, and El Paso cheers as he makes his entrance. Ciampa is fired up like his pyro, and Renee says he has been so impressive here in AEW. An instant classic with Mark Briscoe to win the AEW TNT Championship, and then he unfortunately lost that title to Kyle Fletcher. What does Ciampa plan to do to get back on top? Ciampa says let’s address the elephant in the room that is Kyle Fletcher. He took the title, he renamed it from Silvey to Pinkie, and gave her a makeover without Ciampa’s consent. Now Fletcher is hiding behind the Don Callis Family, hiding in tag matches and trios matches.
“Because Kyle Fletcher knows the second we run back Fletcher VS Ciampa, you are looking at your NEW TNT Champion.” The fans cheer that! Ciampa says if he has to play games, he’ll play games. And if that means he has to earn a rematch, he’ll do that. If that means he goes to war with Mark Briscoe one more time, he’ll do that, too. But make no mistake, he didn’t come to AEW for “instant classics.” He came here to be a top guy! The fans cheer that, and Renee brings up the history with Mark Briscoe. They go way back- Wait, FTR interrupts. Ciampa sighs and the fans boo as Cash & Dax make their way out.
Dax stares Ciampa down, then hugs him? Cash hugs him, too? Dax says they’re only here to welcome an old friend to AEW! And earlier, Ciampa said he wants to be a top guy? Well, what better way than to surround yourself with these Top Guys. Dax will extend an olive branch to Ciampa like he’s never done before. Dax would love if Ciampa would join them and take over AEW. The fans boo that idea, but Dax says c’mon, old friend. Ciampa says yeah, “old friend,” just what he was thinking. Because Ciampa hated FTR’s guts ten years ago, and he still hates them today. But no, hey, quiet, Stokely, the grown-ups are talking.
Dax has Ciampa hold on. It doesn’t matter how good of friends they were or were not, you do NOT speak to #BigStoke like that. And if Ciampa has a problem with Stoke, then he has a problem with FTR. Ciampa understands earlier tonight, FTR signed their No Physicality with The Bucks, but uh… Ciampa didn’t. He SMACKS Dax! Cash gets in Ciampa’s face but Dax has him back off! The fans cheer, but FTR cools down. Dax says he is not mad at Ciampa. But see you on Saturday. The AEW World Tag Team Champions already got on the wrong side of the Psycho Killer, but will Dax the Ax cut him down? Or will Ciampa make sure no one will survive this Collision?
Toni Storm has a cameraman follow her.
She busts into the medical trainer’s room and asks “Citrus Boy” what those Dogs did to him. Cassidy says, “A lot. Pretty sure I got put through a table, hit in the face with a shillelagh… Those dudes just wanna fight. And if they want to fight, then Darby and I will fight them. We’ll fight them at Revolution. But that’s not for another couple weeks, so we’re also gonna fight next week. And then we’ll fight all the weeks after that. We’ll fight, we’ll just fight ’em.” Toni says that’s well said, Clementine. But hear this! Where there are War Dogs, there are Death Riders not far behind.
So then there’s no better behind to be behind than her behind “if you’re a nicotine-chewing Nancy who wants her lips twisted, and her face fisted! Got it?!” Cassidy says, “Yeah…?” Now, can’t you tell he’s indisposed? Begone! The camera feed cuts, but will nothing and no one stop the TIMELESS Conglomeration from overcoming everyone in their way?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
Since Moxley has been facing Don Callis Family members again and again, Konosuke Takeshita proves he can take on Death Riders, too! The Alpha will battle Claudio Castagnoli this Saturday, will the NEW NJPW World TV Champion earn a golden ticket on the way to Revolution? Plus, after choking out Brody King, Swerve Strickland looks to send a message to Bandido, as well! Swerve takes on Bandido’s brother, Gravity! Will the Most Dangerous Man bring Gravity back down to earth?
And then, FTR’s focus on The Young Bucks might cost them again as The Rascalz have called their shot! They want the AEW World Tag Team Championships this Saturday! Will Dezmond Xavier & Zachary Wentz turn everything upside-down in Tucson? Or will Cash & Dax leave them high ‘n’ dry in the desert?
AEW World Trios Championships: Jet Set Rodeo VS Kazuchika Okada, Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis!
While Hangman has been dead set on taking back the AEW World Championship, Kevin Knight & Mike Bailey have been talking up wanting a lot more gold. Don Callis is hypocritical in saying they’re greedy and he’s not, but maybe he has a point. Will Jet Set Rodeo regret riling up the Rainmaker, Protostar & Dunkzilla? Or can they hold onto the gold while still going for more?

That’s a nice thirty total, and then JSR TOSSES DCF out! Hangman PLANCHAS to knock Davis down! Bailey FLIES out onto Okada! Knight powers through but Kyle stops the slingshot! Kyle drags Knight up and out to then ROCKET LAUNCH him onto the railing! The fans go nuts, and Okada RAMS Hangman into more railing, all as Dynamite goes picture in picture!

Winners: Kazuchika Okada, Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis, by pinfall (NEW AEW World Trios Champions)
MJF smiles and applauds his handywork as he costs Hangman and his friends. But will screwing Hangman over only add to the torture MJF is going to suffer through? And as for The Don Callis Family, will they continue to collect belt after belt until they reign over all of AEW?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here, but AEW wouldn’t need to use the overrun every single week if they didn’t try to do EVERYTHING, even unnecessary promos, every single week! The show’s flow was doing so well, until FTR and The Bucks had their meeting in the boardroom. FTR are great in the ring but lately, their promos grind things to a halt. And what did this add other than FTR sucker punching Brandon Cutler? We know The Bucks are upset about FTR going after their family, they said so last time, AND it’s just obvious anyway. FTR confronting Ciampa was at least something fresh, a nice reference to their WWE days, and probably could’ve been the one FTR promo we got.
The promos with Brodido and their separate stories at least established the matches we knew were happening. Andrade being obnoxious to Bandido was good stuff, and Brody calling out Swerve only to get jumped and choked out was also good, especially for the heat. Swerve will of course beat Gravity, but the question is how badly. It’s equal parts a message to Bandido and Brody, so I wonder if we get Brodido VS Swerve & Andrade for a go-home Dynamite or Collision. Either way, I feel like Andrade and Swerve are each going to win their matches; Andrade needs to build momentum if he wants after MJF, and Swerve just started his Heel turn, he also needs to maintain momentum.
MJF VS Knight opening the show was rather surprising, but it makes sense now. It was an awesome match, Knight really establishing himself as a singles competitor, but of course MJF won. Though, Hangman didn’t need his own match, he could’ve just called MJF out when he showed up on stage. MJF could then clap back right there, and DCF could’ve jumped Hangman and JetSpeed right there. Then we still get the trios title main event, which honestly surprised me being an “impromptu match.” It was an awesome match, though they didn’t give as much Aussie Open moves as I’d hoped. But in the end, MJF screwing Hangman over was a fine way to protect the Faces in losing, but makes me think even more now that Hangman has to win at Revolution.
Perhaps part of the Don Callis Family winning the trios titles is so they can be given to the Death Riders. Great match from Moxley VS Hechicero, and of course Moxley won. I don’t think we needed that group promo from the Death Riders, since Marina snuck in her promo on Toni during Moxley’s entrance. But I suppose Yuta still had to speak on how he’s bald now but won’t let that be a source of shame. I could see Yuta, Garcia, and Pac going for the trios titles, but I don’t know if they’d be able to take those off Protokadaussie Open fair and square. Kyle VS Bailey being announced during the trios match was a bit sloppy, too, and I would think Kyle wins that, too.
Darby & Cassidy VS The Dogs was a great tag match, and while Darby & Cassidy won, the big surprise was David Finlay showing up. It wasn’t 100% guaranteed he was going to WWE but I at least thought there was a chance. But to be fair, he gets to be exactly the same Savage King David Finlay he was in NJPW by going to AEW, even joining up with his guys here. Depending on how they play this, a Conglomeration member like Mark Briscoe could join Darby and Cassidy in a Six Man Tag with the Dogs, but I also wonder where Roddy Strong fits into all this. Very good promo from Toni & Cassidy in response, and we have gotta get Toni VS Marina for Revolution.
The IInspiration losing to Brawling Birds in such jobber fashion was rather surprising. They didn’t get one good shot in on Jamie & Alex the entire time, and got stacked with the finisher. If they’re going to be All Elite now, they’re starting at the bottom after building up quite a bit of hype from their stop over in Stardom. Thekla VS Rosa was a great match, especially since they chose to keep everyone else in the back. But as I figured last week, Thekla was going to win this, so at least she did it cleanly. Kris failing to protect Rosa might mean Kris gets her rematch with Thekla at Revolution, but they’d have to put that together right away with this week’s Collision or the go-home Dynamite.
My Score: 9/10

PLAY BY PLAY
MJF is here!
And he is in no mood, so he immediately has them cut his music. The fans boo but MJF says he’ll make something very clear. This show does not start until Revolution is rectified! He doesn’t know what people think he is! You think he’s some deathmatch indie bum!? He’s a REAL pro-wrestler! MJF is the best wrestler on the planet today! “Tony Khan, you get your bony ass out here right now and you change the stipulation of this match! I am NOT doing Texas Death, not a shot!” MJF again says Collision doesn’t start until something gets done! But instead of TK, he gets Kevin Knight! The Jet wags his finger at MJF as he goes down the ramp.
Knight steps into the ring and gets himself a mic to tell MJF, “Nice to see you, homie. I heard you in the back, talking about wanting to get something done. Well look no further than The Jet. Cuz if your narrow-minded ass hasn’t been paying attention the last couple of weeks, The Jet’s been getting the job done. Stacking W’s, getting the wins, and not to mention this past week on Dynamite, The Jet got the job done when you tried to weasel your ass out of that little stipulation. Do you remember that? We got the job done. Because now tonight, the job I’m getting done is shutting your whining ass up! You crybaby ass b*tch!”
The fans chant, “You’re a B*tch!” at MJF. Knight says to rectify this situation, don’t walk away from him. Because honestly, MJF comes out here and the people are tired of hearing that routine of how much better you are than them. How much money he’s got, when we all know that scarf is fake. Because when we compare the two, Knight dresses better, he has more swag than that fat ass head could ever imagine, and not to mention, MJF knows it, the people in Denver know it, the people all around the world know it: The Jet is more handsome than MJF, too! The fans cheer and MJF laughs it off, but Knight says that’s neither here nor there.
To the matter at hand, it sounds like Jet may even be a better world champion than MJF, too. So not only is The Jet the future, he is the here and now! The fans cheer but MJF looks confused. MJF says listen up, “you ignorant, arrogant child.” Knight thinks he’s a champion? He thinks he’s world championship material? He wants to tell MJF, #BigHebrew, how to do his job? No no no no no! Tell ya what, bud. Knight calls himself The Jet? Get on a jet, and fly on to El Paso, Texas. If Knight wants to be world champion, then MJF VS Knight Knight, El Paso, for the Triple B! The fans boo but MJF says no, MJF is glad Knight is smiling.
MJF promises to teach Knight a lesson. Yes, Knight is not the future, or even the now. After MJF’s done with him, all Knight will be is history. MJF mic drops and storms off, but will he regret giving The Jet this golden ticket? Or will MJF survive Dynamite in the Borderland?
AEW hears from Mark Briscoe, Tommaso Ciampa, and Jay Lethal.
The Sussex County Chicken tells the Psycho Killer, “Old buddy, man, I’m glad you finally here. Because you are exactly the type of hard-hitting individual that I love to share the ring with. Gimme a chance to get my win back, but don’t lose your focus. Tonight, you got another friend of mine in Jay Lethal.” Ciampa says the universe has a funny way of working itself out. Ciampa and Lethal, that’s a story has always felt unfinished. Lethal says he beat Ciampa for the ROH World TV Championship, it catapulted him into being The Franchise of ROH. But this time, on Collision, it’ll be another career highlight.
Ciampa says the shadow of the past comes back to haunt Lethal. This is his first step back to the TNT Championship. Briscoe says let’s get it! Which icon of honor stand tall, and perhaps even in line for Kyle Fletcher’s gold?
8 Man Tag: The Death Riders VS Don Callis Family!
While Jon Moxley will battle the NEW NJPW World Television Champion, Konosuke Takeshita, at Revolution, the rest of their team is going to battle it out in the biggest bout yet! Will CMLL World Heavyweight Champion, Claudio Castagnoli, lead Daniel Garcia, Wheeler Yuta & PAC to another victory? Or will Josh Alexander, Lance Archer & Roppongi Vice remind us that #EverybodyDies?
Moxley is on commentary to say how he doesn’t like the Callis Family, what they stand for or how they operate. But at the same time, he acknowledges they’re a strong group, and this is turning into like the LA Lakers and Boston Celtics of old. Archer taunts Marina Shafir but she is stoic as Red Death starts against Rocky Romero. The bell rings, the two tie up, and they go around. Rocky waistlocks, Garcia wrenches to slip around and waistlock. Rocky powers Garcia back to ropes and the ref counts. Rocky lets off to give some Azucar Heat. The fans boo, Garcia runs up, but Rocky dodges the boot! Rocky kicks, Garcia ducks, then Garcia headlocks.
Rocky powers up and out, Garcia RUNS him over, but things keep moving, Rocky hurdles, but Garcia avoids the dropkick to basement DROPKICK! Garcia drags Rocky up, he tags Pac, and they double whip. They DOUBLE HIP TOSS, then Garcia adds a SLIDING FOREARM! Pac hits the STANDING MOONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Pac drags Rocky up, wrenches, but Rocky breaks free to tag Alexander. Pac tags Claudio, and now Swiss Cyborg and Walking Weapon meet again. They circle, feel things out, then Alexander kicks low to throw hands. Alexander headlocks, Claudio powers up, but they go around and around as Claudio tries to power out.
Alexander puts Claudio on ropes, but Claudio turns that around to whip Alexander. Claudio drops down, hurdles, but is caught! Claudio sunset flips, Alexander rolls through, but Claudio goes for legs! Alexander also goes for legs, but Claudio floats to a gut wrench! The fans cheer as Alexander flails, only for Claudio to GUT WRENCH PLEX! Alexander scrambles to ropes, and he tags in the Murderhawk Monster. The fans cheer as Archer talks trash on Claudio. Alexander then gets a cheap shot! Archer DECKS Claudio, puts him in the corner, and he fires hands! Alexander runs corner to corner to ELBOW!
Archer keeps going, he hits another ELBOW! And another ELBOW! Archer lets Claudio fall to his knees, then he tags Rocky. Rocky tags Trent, and RPG Vice double whip corner to corner. But Claudio comes back to DOUBLE LARIAT! Trent bails out, Rocky follows, and Yuta reaches out. Claudio tags Yuta in and the fans boo. The Decoder builds speed, but Alexander trips him! The fans cheer as Alexander goes for the beanie! But Pac BOOTS Alexander down! Trent ROLLINGN ELBOWS Pac down! Trent goes for the beanie! But Garcia SAIDOS Trent away! Rocky runs up but Garcia fires forearms! Rocky kicks, Garcia blocks, then Garcia ducks the enzigiri, but not the REWIND HEEL!
Yuta swings but Rocky slips around, and wants the beanie! Claudio GUT WRENCHES Rocky outta the ring! But Archer CROSSBODIES Claudio down! There’s a brawl going on outside the ring, and Archer guzels Yuta! The fans cheer as Archer grabs for the beanie! Yuta stops that by BITING Archer’s finger! Archer still lifts for the CHOKE- NO, Yuta counters with a DDT! The fans fire up as Yuta builds speed and FLIES out onto everyone anyway! The fans cheer, the Death Riders high five, and Claudio SMACKS Archer off the desk! Moxley makes sure commentary is alright, then Death Riders put Trent in.
Yuta hits a snap suplex on Trent, covers, TWO! Tag to Pac and they mug #JustTrent. Pac SOBATS, KICKS, SOBATS, then runs to DROPKICK Trent down! Trent flounders to a corner but Pac runs in, and he BOOTS Trent! Pac snapmares Trent to go up the corner, but Rocky anchors a foot! Pac BOOTS Rocky away, but Trent YANKS Pac into a SAIDO! The fans boo but Trent tags Rocky. Rocky goes up, Trent hangs Pac out to dry, and Rocky DROPKICKS Pac down! Trent adds a DROPKICK of his own! RPG Vice high-five, then Rocky does his soccer slide celebration while Collision goes picture in picture.
Trent drags Pac over to stand on his neck and choke him! The ref counts, Trent backs off, and Rocky bumps Pac off buckles. Tag to Alexander and he fires hands on Pac! Alexander digs his boot into Pac, but he backs off as the ref counts. This just lets the others choke Pac behind the ref’s back! Alexander then drags Pac out for a standing toehold. Pac endures, keeps his shoulders up, then kicks away at Alexander. Alexander lets go of the foot, but comes back to CLOBBER Pac! Cover, TWO! Alexander drags Pac up, kicks low, then bump shim off buckles. Tag to Archer and he brings Pac around to CHOP in a corner.
Archer looms over Pac, then stands him up to CHOP again! Archer bumps Pac off buckles, tags Alexander back in, and they mug The Bastard some more. Alexander soaks up heat before he drags Pac up, then bumps him off buckles. Tag to Rocky and Rocky stomps Pac. Rocky soaks up heat while Collision returns to single picture.

Now, ladies, you have three options: Step up, step back, or step aside for The IInspiration! POSE! Jessie & Cassie are All Elite, but will AEW soon be iconic?
AEW & The Dogs present…
Clark Connors wonders what’s true and what isn’t. He could tell you about every body he’s put his mark on, but would you believe him? 100 Proof knows how to fight dirty, and does it for a living.

The International & TNT Champions stand tall together, then Kyle grabs a mic. Kyle tells Denver, Colorado, “Say my full name! Now, Kyle Fletcher & Kazuchika Okada are the greatest champions in this company’s history! But now, together as Protokada, we are unstoppable! So whoever wants to step up to the two greatest champions-” Wait! JetSpeed walks back out here! Speedball double checks, Kyle thinks Protokada is unstoppable? Well, that could be true, if not for the fact that during the Continental Classic, Mike Bailey beat Kyle! And Kevin Knight beat Okada! So for them to come out here and say they’re the greatest champions in the company? The math isn’t really mathing.
Okada tells them that JetSpeed has never beaten Protokada! Kyle adds, “B***tch~!” Well, yeah, okay, that’s kinda funny, them doing the gag. But y’know what? Knight would love to see the match, this would be box office. And Okada, after Knight beats MJF for the world title, he’d love Okada to be his first defense. Bailey then brings up that Kyle has the “cow udder pink” title, so Bailey would love to beat him for that! So while they’re making matches, Jet Set Rodeo are THE AEW World Trios Champions, so they’d be more than happy to defend their belts against Protokada and any of the other 12 THOUSAND members of the Callis Family.
So make sure to choose wisely. Because the fact of the matter is that it won’t matter, the result will be the same. It is always Jet Set Rodeo on top, B*TCH! The many challenges have been issued, but how will this all shake out as we continue on the Road to Revolution?
AEW hears from Darby Allin & Orange Cassidy.
The Relentless One brings up what that Mad Man, Gabe Kidd, has been saying, about how this won’t be over until Darby’s pushing up daisies.

This story doesn’t end with him down, it will be Darby & Orange VS The Dogs! It’s SHOWTIME!

But now, it is time she writes her comeback story as she seeks the championship again. Will it be a story of thrills and dominance? Or will the Real Deal make it a much grittier struggle for our hero?

Hook speaks.
The Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil starts his Opps recruitment pitch, saying everyone wants to join in. Hey, does this guy wrestle? Yeah, he does. Wanna join The Opps? Um, sure! Yeah, Hook bets he does. Idiot! Hook laughs and leaves that guy behind, but Anthony Bowens steps in. The 5 Tool Player says hello to Hook, and to “Shibata-san” behind the camera. But he understands they’re recruiting. He doesn’t know how many people know this, but Hook is one of Bowens’ best friends. Bowens has had Hook’s back since they both started here, so Bowens thinks it’d be a fantastic idea if he continued that by joining The Opps.
And if that’s not enough, they’d be adding a former AEW World Tag Team Champion, a former AEW World Trios Champion, and the Pride of Professional Wrestling. Hook does agree, they’re friends. And Bowens doesn’t need to sell himself to Hook. That is impressive. But this is business. The question is: Is Bowens a proper fit for The Opps? The Opps is a group of killers, from Shibata to Samoa Joe to Hook. Bowens… Killer? Let Hook think about it, and Bowens can think on that. The Opps head out, but will Bowens prove he can do more than just strike people out?

Callis claims Ishii’s attacking him, but Andrade SMACKS Ishii off the desk again! The fans are torn but Andrade soaks it all up. Andrade then finds himself another young lady who wants a selfie. Andrade obliges, she gives him a kiss on the cheek, then he goes back for Ishii while Collision goes to break.
Andrade pushes Ishii into the ring, covers, TWO! Andrade is annoyed but Ishii is tougher than that. Andrade stomps Ishii in the stomach, then mocks the abs compared to his own. Andrade ROCKS Ishii with forearm after forearm, then eggs Ishii on. Ishii fires a flurry, but Andrade kicks low! Ishii falls into the corner, but Andrade takes the time to flex. Andrade then drags Ishii around by the bad leg, wraps it around the ropes, and he pulls! The ref reprimands but Andrade stops at the count of 4. Andrade then drags Ishii out to the apron and ELBOW DROPS the leg! Ishii writhes, the ref reprimands, but Andrade just pushes Ishii back in the ring.
Andrade hears the fans calling for it, but he wags his finger. No removing the pants for Denver. Andrade clamps onto Ishii’s leg to twist it. He turns Ishii over for a HALF CARB! Ishii endures, fights forward, and makes the ROPEBREAK! Andrade lets go in frustration, but he clamps back on with a chinlock. Ishii endures the squeeze, even as Andrade leans on the hold. Ishii fights up, fires body shots, but Andrade CLUBS Ishii! Andrade reels Ishii in as Collision returns to single picture, and he snap suplexes! That’s Uno Amigo as Andrade brings Ishii up, but Ishii fights back! Ishii suplexes Andrade in return!
Callis storms off commentary to pound the apron and rally for Andrade. The fans all boo Callis, he tells them to shut up or cheer for Andrade! Ishii stands up so Callis scurries away. Ishii storms up on Andrade to CHOP him in the corner! And CHOP again! And CHOP again! Ishii whips corner to corner but Andrade reverses. Ishii reverses back to SAIDO! The fans fire up with Ishii as he rises again. Ishii waits on Andrade, then runs the ropes, but Andrade ducks the lariat! And the elbow! But Ishii spins Andrade, only for Andrade to snap suplex! New Uno Amigo, then another snap suplex for Dos Amigos! Andrade gives some Latino Heat before THREE AMIGOS! Cover, TWO!
The fans cheer for “EDDIE! EDDIE!” while Andrade nods. Ishii rolls to a corner while Andrade slams the mat. The fans rally up as Andrade stands. Andrade runs corner to corner and back again, CIEN- NO, Ishii dodges the knees to GERMAN SUPLEX! But Andrade’s right up!? Ishii swats a lariat to HEADBUTT Andrade down! The fans fire up again as Ishii stands tall! Ishii sits Andrade up to then run and SLIDING LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Andrade survives but Ishii roars! The fans cheer as Ishii drags Andrade back up. Ishii reels Andrade in, suplexes, but Andrade fights it! Andrade wrenches out, but Ishii ROCKS him first!

Andrade tries again, and he runs corner to corner for CIEN KNEES! Cover, TWO! Ishii survives and the fans are torn again! Andrade seethes as he stands again, and he goes to the corner.

Ishii roars, he reels Andrade in, suplex and- NO, Andrade fights free! Ishii ROCKS Andrade, but the SHADOW ELBOW hits! Cover, TWO!! Ishii survives again and Callis is going nuts! But Andrade sends the DIRECT MESSAGE! Cover, Andrade wins!
Winner: Andrade El Idolo, by pinfall
The Stone Pitbull lived up to the name, but Andrade still found a way to break through! Callis celebrates with his amigo, his hermano, his familia, but wait! BANDIDO is here! The Outlaw applauds, and Andrade takes off the pants to reveal his yellow ring gear! These two will face off at Revolution in Los Angeles, but Bandido wants it to be one of respect. He offers a handshake, but Andrade SPITS on that hand. So now the handshake becomes a finger gun. Will Bandido take down the Real Latino Man? Or will Andrade get a win on the Most Wanted?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision here as we build to Revolution, but I can’t be sure what’s going on with all these title stories. MJF of course ranted and complained, but that doesn’t exactly add anything. And then Kevin Knight calling MJF out was fine, and a little surprised El Paso is getting the title match that MJF is clearly going to win. Then after a great match of #Protokada VS Top Flight, JetSpeed calls them out as not just a tag team but also as the individual champions they are and as a trio with a random third to join them. I appreciate them remembering Knight and Bailey each got wins off these champions, but maybe they should’ve cashed these ideas in earlier so that it isn’t just all rushed right before Revolution.
We got a very good promo video from Briscoe, Ciampa and Lethal, but I feel like the Ciampa VS Lethal match should’ve been right after it for better flow. Instead, we got another Death Riders VS Don Callis Family match, though I did appreciate it was an 8 Man Tag this time. Ciampa VS Lethal was a great match, even with The Swirl getting involved to try and screw Ciampa over. Great stuff for Ciampa to overcome that, though, and he should definitely get the TNT Championship shot at Revolution for him and Kyle to run it back. We might even get Ciampa & Briscoe as a team real quick to help Ciampa build momentum and get Briscoe back in the win column.
Very good promo from The IInspiration, great to hear they’ve landed somewhere after leaving TNA, and they’ll clearly have a great feud with The Brawling Birds. The Birds didn’t have the cleanest match with their opponents tonight but that wasn’t the worst. Toni VS Zayda was good, but of course Toni won. This is a small thing, but I feel like Zayda VS Toni could’ve gone before Protokada VS Top Flight. Daniels shaking off Okada attacking him isn’t hard to believe, but it would also make sense if Daniels was down and out after Top Flight’s match. Marina & Yuta going after Toni was interesting, and I’m a little surprised Yuta got his hat snatched so soon. Toni VS Marina in a 1v1 for Revolution would go hard, though, and can definitely send the winner towards a title.
Rosa & Kris VS Sisters of Sin was very good as a tag match, and of course Rosa & Kris won. Very good promo from Thekla to call Rosa and Kris out, and I would think Thekla finds a way to win on Dynamite. It could be because Triangle of Madness interferes, it could be because Kris counters Triangle of Madness but accidentally costs Rosa, or Kris could flipflop right back to Heel and cost Rosa because she doesn’t want anyone else beating Thekla. I really hope it’s not that third idea, let it be one of the others, and then we can either do Thekla VS Rosa again, or even a Triple Threat of Thekla VS Rosa VS Kris for some really wild stuff.
Very good promo from Hook with Bowens, in that Bowens puts himself forward for The Opps and Hook doesn’t automatically accept. It was a logical move from Hook to question Bowens’ killer instinct, but also, where is the Bowens-Caster slow build to Acclaimed 2026? Will Caster weirdly try to join Opps and then they’re pitted against each other or something? Or perhaps Hook has them jump through hoops just to bring up guys from ROH or the indies, which then upsets Bowens & Caster and compels them to be Acclaimed once again.
Very good promo from all the teams in the $200K Fatal 4 Way, but like, can’t we just say that’s a tag title opportunity match? No one who has ever won the kayfabe cash prize has actually kayfabe splurged and shown off their new anything. Though, with this being the return match for Rush y Dralistico, maybe they should win. Then they can even be the kind of Heels that do show off that money. And while putting together Andrade VS Ishii was rather outta nowhere, it was still a great choice because that was a great main event match. Great win for Andrade to have momentum going towards Revolution, and good faceoff from him and Bandido to close out the show. The ROH World title is NOT on the line, which is fine, but it’s pretty clear Andrade is winning then.
My Score: 8.9/10
