AEW TV RECAP
NOV WEEK 4 - DEC' WEEK 1

 Full Gear is behind us, let's ride on the road to Winter Is Coming! AEW's annual TV Special in the second week of December is just around the corner and with the traditional AEW World Championship on the line we're all very excited. 

Of course we started the Dynamite after Full Gear with the new AEW World Champion Jay White who had a celebration party with his pals Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn and Cardblade. "Switchblade" had some warm words for Adam Page, who he will face at Winter Is Coming. These two had some heated arguments over the next weeks and even had a backstage fist fight, Jay White mocked Page for losing all matches between them. Will it be the same result at Winter Is Coming?

Hangman Page got involved in another clash when La Faccion Ingobernable made their return to AEW Television with an attack on The Young Bucks. The Bucks just won a match against Matt Menard and Angelo Parker when Rush and his pals attacked them brutally at Dynamite. Adam Page rescued his friends but was also furious with Andrade El Idolo with sending his boys to attack his friends. The mexican denied it and said that he has nothing to do with "LFI". However a ROH World Six Man Tag Team Titlematch was set by Tony Khan for ROH's Final Battle.

Full Gear ended with a real shocker when Roderick Strong, The Kingdom and Adam Cole revealed themselves as the ones who played some mindgames in the feud between Jay White and MJF. The latter thought that Cole and himself are "besties", however it was Cole who lead the brutal beatdown after the main event. Cole explained his actions to the fans that he wanted to get under MJF's skin, to know his biggest fear and weakness. MJF and Cole got into a fist fight where his new allies helped him again. To the surprise of the crownd and MJF, Samoa Joe came down the aisle to help MJF! Will there be a new alliance?

One final time. That's what Adam Copeland wanted from Christian Cage after his recent loss to his former best friend. Of course Cage blocked any enquiry by Copeland, he said that he already beat Copeland and that he has nothing to prove. After The North beating The Hardys at Collision, Copeland attacked Cage from behind, who was sitting at the announcing desk. Copeland provoked Christian Cage, beating him up which lead to Cage accepting Copeland's proposal for New Year Smash. Tony Khan made it official that this match will be a Steel Cage Match!


After beating Kota Ibushi in a classic, Bryan Danielson invited the next japanese star to take on him in an AEW International Championship match: Katsuhiko Nakajima. The "Mad Wolf" made quite an impression to the AEW crowd and received standing ovations. Just a few moments after the end, Konosuke Takeshita attacked Danielson and Don Callis demanded a title match on the behalf of Takeshita. But before the match will happen, Danielson had yet another defense, this time in Canada against the returning Shawn Spears. Danielson versus Takeshita was officially made by Tony Khan and will be at Dynamite: New Year Smash!

Since his return from injury, Jon Moxley set his eyes on Lee Moriarty. The former AEW World Champ was impressed by "Taiga Style" and even fought against Shane Taylor to get Moriarty convinced joining the "BCC". Claudio wasn't happy with yet another youngster joining their ranks and he challenged Moriarty on Dynamite. They had a pretty good match and Claudio accepted Moriarty to be worthy to be in the Blackpool Combat Club. 

And speaking of the "BCC", since Full Gear we know that they are on Kenny Omega's and Chris Jericho's side against The Don Callis Family. Daniel Garcia has helped his former mentor Chris Jericho at Full Gear against the attackers and found himself in a match with Sammy Guevara on Dynamite, which unfortunately he lost. The tensions between all of them are pretty high and even got higher when they had a huge brawl after Omega's match with Rocky Romero. Kenny demanded one final match to end things between him and Don Callis once and for all.


AEW World Tag Team Champions House Of Black are on a hot streak right now. The champs defeated not only FTR but also The Young Bucks at Full Gear, two of the very best tag teams of the world. But new challengers emerged when the veterans of the Motor City Machine Guns picked a win after another and issued a challenge to The House Of Black. After some spooky happenings backstage, the "MCMG" were attacked after a match by Brody King and Malakai Black and even were misted in the face.

With the arrival of Mercedes Moné the AEW Women's Division had a great shake up. Just days after having her debut at Full Gear, Moné had her first match in AEW against Outcast's Ruby Soho. The former Sasha Banks won and set her sights on the AEW Women's World Championship, the match was made official by Tony Khan in the following week and will be held at Dynamite: New Year Smash. The TBS Championship is heavily contested by multiple women: ROH Women's World Champion Athena demanded more time on AEW Television and made that pretty clear by defending her title for the twentieth time against Abadon. And so did former AEW Women's World Champion Hikaru Shida by defeating Marina Shafir and the returning Taya Valkyrie by defeating Willow Nightingale at Dynamite from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. And "right from behind" there still is "Timeless" Toni Storm who also wants a crack at some gold.

AEW DYNAMITE: WINTER IS COMING
WEDNESDAY WEEK 2, DEC' 2023 - GARLAND, TX

fs7zM6v.jpgbiwLqMF.jpg 3xraTHc.jpgtElXq4l.jpg

1. AEW World Tag Team Championship: House Of Black (Brody King & Malakai Black) XDdjFCe.png def. Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin)
The annual Dynamite: Winter Is Coming episode kicked off with a tag team titlematch between The House Of Black and Motor City Machine Guns. Althought the vets from Detroit had some shinings in the match, the champs were pretty dominant in the match and took the win in the opening contest. Malakai Black and Brody King seem like an unstoppable force at the moment.

Backstage, the "Rated-R Superstar" Adam Copeland cut a promo about his upcoming Steel Cage Match with his childhood friend Christian Cage. Copeland made pretty clear that he isn't into fighting Christian, he just wanted to team with him and not beating him up but it is what it is now. The Rated-R Superstar said that he'll beat Christian Cage inside a steel cage and hurt him real bad.

 

hgCCWEc.jpggQHIxaw.jpg Dp2XuzV.jpgpCTJ4TI.jpg

2. Hikaru Shida & Willow Nightingale def. Athena & Taya Valkyrie
There has been some issues between all four combattants, all of them would love to get a TBS Championship match down the line and that's why champ Kris Statlander joined the commentary team at the booth. Just a week ago Willow Nightingale came up short against Taya Valkyrie on Dynamite, tonight she put ROH Women's World Champion down for three seconds with a roll-up!

We're backstage again where Rene Paquette was with AEW TNT Champion Ricky Starks and his bouncer Big Bill. Starks said that he acknowledged the win by the Lucha Brothers against themselves and so "Absolute" accepts the challenge from Rey Fénix. Starks suggested Collision's special edition of New Year Smash as the place to be.  


O2t3AOh.jpg 0QOmJNw.jpg

3. Eddie Kingston def. Brian Cage
The feud between Eddie Kingston and The Mogul Embassy continued with a fight against Brian Cage, who was accompanied by Prince Nana. There were some outside interference by Nana but Kingston was able to overcome it to defeat Cage with a Kawada Powerbomb.

To the surprise of no one, The Gates Of Agony came right after the bell to ambush Kingston brutally from behind. The calvary came to the ring with some speed: Ortiz and Mike Santana helped their friend to put The Mogul Embassy to flight. It seemed like that Ortiz as well as Santana "got their sh*t together", like Kingston said several weeks ago.

Kenny Omega is backstage cutting a promo about Don Callis and his past together as a team. Omega stated that they had some successful moments as a dou but that's the past, Callis manipulated him and so he does with his guys too. "The Cleaner" finally wants to end his dispute with Callis and is challenging his Family to a match at Collision: New Year Smash.

yEbuHyA.jpgNSWEl4C.jpg KrAcTp1.jpgKVqC91P.jpg

4. Samoa Joe & MJF def. The Kingdom (Matt Taven & Mike Bennett)
To the surprise of everyone, Samoa Joe helped MJF against Adam Cole and his pals, who introduced themselves as "Paragon" just before the match, and the match was set. Although Joe and MJF never teamed up before, they had some good moments and were able to take out The Kingdom when MJF hit the Heatseeker on Bennett and Joe put him to sleep with the Coquina Clutch for the win.

Just when Joe and MJF argued a bit about the finish, the ROH World Television left the ring to get confronted by Roderick Strong on the stage while MJF was attacked in the ring by a returning...

LANCE ARCHER!

The announcing team was confused about Archer's motive to attack MJF but the "Murderhawk Monster" seemed to have fun putting the former AEW World Champion out of dizzying height to the ground.

5. AEW World Championship: Jay White XDdjFCe.png def. Adam Page
Adam Page has never beaten Jay White before, and the streak of being undefeated against "Hangman" continued. The AEW World Champion defended his title successfully for the very first time in a stellar match which lots of up's and down's for each wrestler. The Gunns tried to interfere into the fight but were shut down by The Young Bucks and brought backstage too. When Page hit the Buckshot Lariat White looked like he was going limb, however "Switchblade" was able to hit the Blade Runner out of nowhere to keep the title around his waist.

ROH FINAL BATTLE 2023
SUNDAY WEEK 2, DEC' 2023 - ARLINGTON, TX


x6FHL7R.png

 

Ring Of Honor's Final Battle was a quite interesting show in front of a hot crowd in Arlington, Texas. All championships were on the line and key players from AEW and ROH were in action, we saw new wrestlers and new alliances were formed.

In one of the most brutal fights in Ring Of Honor History, Swerve Strickland successfully stopped Eddie Kingston in the main event of Final Battle. Kingston and Swerve battered each other brutally with several weapons of any kind, bleeding all over the ring and having a really good match. When Strickland finally put Kingston down, the ROH World Champion made sure to remind the people in the venue that he's a double champion and the best Ring Of Honor, All Elite Wrestling and even New Japan has to offer at the moment.

It's the fourth match between these two ladies and it's one for the history books. Willow Nightingale made the impossible happen by defeating the most dominant ROH Women's World Champion Athena after having a year long reign with the belt. Willow wanted to shake Athena's hand so badly after the fight and ultimately the dethroned Champion answered the offer with shaking Willow's hand. 

The longest reigning ROH World Television Champion Samoa Joe lost the strap to Paragon's Roderick Strong after a turmoil of a match. Sure these two had a great wrestling match althought Strong relied on the help of his allies of The Kingdom when Referee Paul Turner  was distracted by Matt Taven. Strong hit the End Of Heartache backbreaker to capture the title and become a third time Television Champion. Joe was furious after the match! 

The Elite and La Faccion Ingobernable fought for the ROH World Six Man Tag Team Championship in a faction warfare. Adam Page eventually put Preston Vance's shoulders down for three seconds to get the second defense in the books. Of course the fight wasn't over after the bell rang, Rush and Dralistico slided into the ring to attack Page. The Young Bucks made the save and left the ring when suddenly Andrade El Idolo sneaked from behind to attack "Hangman" with his El Idolo Hammerlock DDT! Andrade seemed to be still bitter about his Full Gear Title Eliminator loss against Page.

We saw another two championships changed hands. The Gunns had their hands full with three other teams and the fear to lose the straps even though without getting pinned or submitted. And so the obvious happened when The Acclaimed were in the ring with Arez and pinned the mexican in the middle of the squared circle to steal the ROH World Tag Team titles off The Gunns. The ROH Pure Championship was contested between two pure wrestling stars: Katsuyori Shibata and the debuting Timothy Thatcher and to the surprise of the crowd Thatcher submitted the champ in just two minutes to made a real statement.

Dalton Castle may won his match with newcomer Bryan Keith, who made his ROH debut just weeks ago at HonorClub, in a pretty decent fight. The flamboyant Peacock celebrated his win while The Righteous sneaked into the ring to attack Castle. His Boys came to help but Bryan Keith made sure that they outnumber their opponents again. After a brutal attack on Castle it seemed like we have a new alliance.
