Backstage interview with Willow Nightingale and Persephone.

Renee Paquette is with the AEW TBS Champion and the NEW CMLL Women’s World Champion. Willow says this is a match she’s wanted for awhile. Congratulations on winning that title off Mercedes Mone, that was an awesome match. Perse thanks Willow, and says if anyone knows what it’s like to beat The CEO, it is Willow. Willow beat Mone to become TBS Champion. But… Perse was just thinking, out of the two of them, Perse may have hit Mone harder. Well, okay… Willow appreciates the fire, she hopes Perse brings that to their match and hits her just as hard. But she will get up, she promises. Perse isn’t so sure about that.

Well, we’ll see about that. Yes, we will see about that… Perse taps the TBS Championship, and Willow says let’s go out there and have a great match. They fist bump, but will the Babe with the Power still be the Babe with Two Belts? Or will the Goddess of the Underworld make herself a double campeona?

Don Callis talks with Kyle Fletcher backstage.

The Jackal tells The Protostar that he’ll take that Speedball kid, lay him down, and put him in the dirt! This is the greatest TNT Champion of all time, Kyle BY GAWD Fletcher, and Callis wants to see what he’ll do to that French Canadian halfwit! MJF steps in and says he wants to see what Kyle will do, too. MJF admits, Kyle is a beautiful man. And so do MJF a favor, that Kemosabe dollar store Karate Kid kicked MJF in the face a couple weeks ago. Can Kyle beat the absolute s*it out of “No Balls” Mike Bailey for him? Kyle doesn’t know who “Maxwell” thinks he’s talking to, but he doesn’t take orders from him.

Kyle will beat Bailey up so bad for Kyle, not for MJF. MJF asks Callis to teach his guys how to speak to the AEW World Champion. MJF heads out, Kyle asks Don that they better not be working with that SOB. Callis says no, he’s not crazy! Now c’mon, let’s go kick butt.

AEW TNT Championship: Kyle Fletcher VS “Speedball” Mike Bailey!

The Protostar isn’t just the self-proclaimed greatest TNT Champion ever, but he’s now an AEW World Trios Champion after he, Kazuchika Okada & Mark Davis took advantage of a less-than-100% Jet Set Rodeo. Bailey, Kevin Knight, and their new partner, Mistico, will be going for the trios titles on Sunday, but can Bailey snatch the TNT title away here tonight? Or will this match be more like adding insult to injury?

BREAKING NEWS for Revolution!

On top of adding Willow’s double header of TBS Championship and AEW Women’s Tag Team Championships to the card, there will be a Six Man Tag of The Dogs VS Darby, Cassidy & Roddy! Will the war between them finally come to an end?

Six Man Tag: Tommaso Ciampa & FTR VS Mark Briscoe & The Young Bucks!

The Psycho Killer turned on the Sussex County Chicken, but he doesn’t see it as a betrayal. Ciampa sees it as embracing his “inner sicko,” his true self that has been longing to be set free for years. But as Briscoe said last Saturday, this fight is now going to be mathematically fair and square as he calls upon two men who also hate FTR’s guts! Will #DemBucks show Ciampa & FTR what it is to #ManUp? Or will Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood make Ciampa a #TopGuy in AEW?

Dem Bucks don’t even wait, Briscoe BLASTS Ciampa off the apron, and The Bucks DOUBLE DIVE onto FTR!

Dax goes up, the bell rings, and Dax gives Briscoe a SUPER DUPER PLEX! There’s the Power, and Cash SPLASHES but onto knees! No guts, no Glory! Nick is up top now, 450 SPLASH on Dax! Briscoe covers, TWO! Dax is tougher than that but Briscoe CHOPS him! Tag to Matt, they mug Dax, and Matt ROCKS Dax!

Ciampa tumbles, The Bucks get FTR up, SUPERKICK for Cash! DOUBLE ASSISTED SLICED BREAD!

Briscoe joins in, SLIDING LARIAT for Cash, SHINING WIZARD for Dax! The fans cheer Dem Bucks, and they aim at Dax! DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Then DOUBLE SUPERKICKS for Cash!

Briscoe and Ciampa fire forearms back and forth as the fans rally. Ciampa kicks low, runs the ropes, but DOUBLE LARIATS collide! Neither man falls, so DOUBLE BOOTS hit! They both stay up, they both run, and DOUBLE CROSSBODIES collide! All six men are down and the fans fire up again as Dynamite goes picture in picture.

A standing count starts, and the teams regroup. Matt stands to whip Dax hard into buckles, then Briscoe kicks Ciampa on the outside. Briscoe tosses Ciampa while Matt fires hands on Dax. Tag to Briscoe and they double whip Dax for a DOUBLE SHOULDER TACKLE! Briscoe follows Dax outside, CHOPS him, then CHOPS him again! Dax scrambles back into the ring but Briscoe follows to kick and UPPERCUT! Briscoe shows off that Redneck Kung-Fu, and he whips Dax into buckles. Briscoe runs up but into an ELBOW! Dax then brings Briscoe around to bump off Cash’s boots. Tag to Ciampa and he stomps away!

The ref counts, Ciampa still stomps Briscoe against ropes, but he stops at 4. Ciampa taunts The Bucks, but that just lets FTR and even Stokely get shots in. Ciampa then ROPE GUILLOTINES Briscoe! Briscoe sputters while Stoke grins. Briscoe bails out, Ciampa pursues, and Ciampa whips Briscoe into railing! Ciampa ROCKS Briscoe again and again, then whips him into railing! Briscoe tumbles up and over into the crowd! Dax storms up to throw hands! Briscoe is busted open, but Ciampa KNEES him right down! Ciampa soaks up cheers and jeers before he goes back to the ring.

AEW holds a Revolution press conference.

Bryan Danielson welcomes us and the media, thanks them for being here, and explains this presser is for the PPV’s main event, the Texas Deathmatch for THE AEW World Championship. Bryan introduces first the challenger, the man who vows that if he loses this Sunday, he will never challenge for this title again, Hangman Adam Page. The Cowboy walks out and the press applauds. Hangman shakes Bryan’s hand before he takes his seat. And lastly, the reigning AEW World Champion, Maxwell Jacob Friedman. The Scumbag walks out, getting some applause as he takes his seat. Bryan asks if there are any questions from the press.

One reporter asks Hangman about MJF costing Jet Set Rodeo the AEW World Trios Championships last week. Going into Revolution, is Hangman just going for the belt? Or is this going to be revenge? Hangman says it isn’t just revenge, it is for the world title. This has always been about that, ever since 2019. Hangman knows MJF cost him those trios titles, but Hangman is taking what MJF holds most dear. MJF scoffs, and the second reporter asks that for the first-time viewers who are about to watch this Texas Deathmatch, what do they want those fans to leave with?

MJF says what he wants them to leave with is the fact that MJF is a real professional wrestler, and that having to do a match like this is both sickening and stupid. But MJF is also a winner, and that is what he’ll be after the match. He will arrive and leave with the AEW World Championship on March 15th. Hangman says MJF will be leaving in an ambulance, and the fans will be left with the most extreme thing they’ve ever seen stuck in their minds for the rest of their lives. The third reporter asks MJF about last year, how he faced Hangman multiple times, and lost those matches. How will he guarantee that this time around, he finally wins?

MJF says first off, “you tub of goo, you waste of space, if you want to ask a stupid question, you’re going to get a stupid answer.” MJF is feeling gracious, though. Those losses were flukes! He said it before, he’ll say it again, Hangman is assuredly a lucky shot. But MJF firmly believes that Hangman is all out of bullets, and he will never be able to challenge for the glorious “Triple B” ever again. MJF is not concerned about those last two matches, only about beating him this Sunday, and that will happen. The fourth reporter asks Hangman what lessons he’s taking from all his previous Texas Deathmatches and bringing into Revolution.

Hangman says he is the master of Texas Death. He won the world title in one, he defended the title in one, he has made careers in them, and he has also ended careers in them. Max stands not a snowball’s chance in Hell! Hangman brings every lesson he has ever learned in Texas Death, and is teaching them to MJF one drop of blood at a time. The fifth reporter brings up Hangman’s history of Texas Death, but also his history of them in California. Hangman defeated Moxley in on at Revolution 2023, but Full Gear was a loss to Swerve Strickland. And last year, as Hangman mentioned, he defeated MJF at Revolution 2025.

The question therefore is: Is this the convergence of Hangman’s AEW story? Hangman says yes. He has laid his entire future on the line just for this chance. People have compared Hangman and MJF for six years, not just their time in AEW but their entire careers up to this point. Finally, they finish this at Revolution. 2026 will just be a replay of last year, but a lot more bloody. MJF shrugs that off but Bryan says they have time for one last question. The last question is for Hangman: If he does not win on Sunday, who is he in AEW? MJF says that is a great question! Who IS Hangman Adam Page, really?

Hangman is hesitant to answer, but he does say that that will not happen. He will win the title back. MJF says this is lovely, because it is obvious he is not winning, and he’ll never be able to challenge for the world title ever again. MJF wants to do the “cowboy salute.” He has a staffer bring up two red Solo cups of beer, and they can say cheers. To Hangman never being world champion ever again! Hangman SMACKS the one beer out of MJF’s hand! So MJF SPLASHES Hangman with the other! And the brawl is on! They tear up the stage, fight into the back, and out to ringside! The fans finally cheer as Hangman fires hands!

MJF staggers, Hangman storms up, but MJF uses security as a shield! Down goes one poor rando, and MJF ROCKS Hangman! MJF throws hands on Hangman now, but Hangman hits back! Then Hangman TOSSES MJF over railing! Hangman puts MJF in the ring but MJF wants mercy! Security hurries out here, but the fans boo as they pull Hangman back! Hangman just throws hands on the security guards! The fans fire up again, but MJF sneaks the Dynamite Diamond Ring out! DYNAMITE DIAMOND- NO, Hangman gest under! Alabama Lift, and DEADEYE!! Hangman goes looking under the ring, and he finds a board covered in barbed wire!

The fans tell Hangman he’s sick, but this is just his appetizer for Revolution! Hangman drags MJF to the apron, aims down below, and he Alabama Lifts again! But MJF slips free! MJF runs away into the night, and he might run all the way from San Jose to Los Angeles! Hangman tells MJF that he better run for his life! But will Hangman’s life be the one ruined if he actually loses? Or will the Devil find a way to survive the City of Angels?

My Thoughts:

A great Dynamite as the go-home to Revolution, but that ending segment was very NOT AEW. For one, why do it backstage and not on the stage? The fans were booing and chanting stuff about it, they were not happy. But obviously, it turned into a brawl, and that was the fun part for the fans. MJF avoiding disaster tonight, I suppose that’s Hangman standing tall, which doesn’t bode well in go-home math. It would still be wild if Hangman lost and could never challenge for THE title again, when this is just year six of AEW and Hangman has his entire career still ahead. But at the same time, he could complete his AEW Grand Slam if he were “forced” to go for a midcard title.

Speaking of the midcard titles, what an awesome match from Fletcher VS Bailey. I personally would’ve used a time limit draw to save Kyle, but the Don Callis Family being Heels, cheating is a given. And it shows a great contrast to how things went in the tag match of Konosuke & Hechi VS Moxley & Claudio. Granted, Death Riders won, but Konosuke refusing to beat down Moxley with the rest of the Callis Family is some good stuff. I was hoping for a Don Callis Family Civil War, but it feels like Konosuke is just gonna be kicked out of the faction the old fashioned way. I’d still prefer the civil war, but hard to say who would join Konosuke’s side if Fletcher is all in on Protokada.

Great “standby” match from Brody and whoever that poor guy was, and of course Brody won. Swerve attacking Brody was good stuff, though, and Brody breaking that chain was awesome. But with Brody standing tall like that, feels like Swerve finds a way to win at Revolution. It might even be from cheating just to keep Brody strong in defeat. Great tag match from Darby & Cassidy VS Gabe & Finlay. Connors as the ace in the hole was a good move, good win for The Dogs. And I’m actually a little surprised I was right about Roddy helping Cassidy here. That’ll be a great Six Man Tag for Revolution, and I would think Darby, Cassidy & Roddy win.

Very good promo from Willow VS Persephone, and great TBS Championship from them. Great win for Willow, and the quick pin protects Perse in a way, too. Very good promo from the Babes of Wrath, and I’m surprised we’re just doing the double header for Willow like this. I feel like Willow retains the TBS title, but then Lena & Megan beat the Babes of Wrath for the tag titles. And then an awesome trios match, really wild stuff. Great table spots, and a strong win for the Heels. Ciampa is apparently also in the Blackjack Battle Royal, but I don’t think he’s winning that. As for FTR VS Bucks, maybe this means Bucks win to avenge their brother, but I guess we’ll wait and see.

My Score: 9/10
