Nobby_McDonald Posted April 24 Author Share Posted April 24 PRE SHOW Nyla Rose beat Riho in 8:08 by submission with a Camel Clutch. 54 DYNAMITE Wednesday, week 1, March 2024 Foxwoods Resort Casino, Mashantucket, Connecticut (3,600 capacity) Announces: Excalibur, Taz and Tony Schiavone Dynamite starts in a backstage corridor where we see the World champion Samoa Joe and one of his Revolution challengers (and Team Swerve team mate) Swerve Strickland attacking the other Revolution challenger, Adam Page. Joe and Swerve are trading punches on the Hangman, who valiantly and briefly tries a fight back, but Joe and Strickland show that two on one is too much... in the backstage a glimpse of the masked man in the black hoodie is seen lurking in the shadows... though this time he doesn't intervene and Page is left to take the beating... An interesting development, is he really on Page's side? 68 v AEW LEAGUE The Spooky Club (Julia Hart (TBS champion) & Abadon) v The Bryan Danielson Appreciation Society (Hikaru Shida & 'The Professor' Serena Deeb) A one sided match in which Abadon especially was dominated by the opposition. The dominance led to victory for The Bryan Danielson Appreciation Society when Deeb pinned Abadon in 7:36 with a Spear. 53 Abadon was really off her game. Abadon performed far worse than everyone else (25, next worst Hart 42) Deeb benefitted from being in amazing form. Backstage and Renee Paquette is with the International champion, Orange Cassidy. Renee asks Orange how he got Nick Nemeth to be his partner last week in their winning effort against Roderick Strong and Wardlow... Orange as usual doesn't say a lot... though he does say he doesn't just have Best Friends. 65 v AEW LEAGUE Team WooItsNathan ('Superbad' Kip Sabian, The Butcher & John Silver) v Black Lotus ('Alpha' Konosuke Takeshita (with Don Callis), 'Natural' Dustin Rhodes & 'The Redeemer' Miro) A decent match and one where Takeshita rose up as the stand out performer. He led Black Lotus to the win and three points and it was his team mate Rhodes who scored the pinfall in 8:29 with a Cross Rhodes on Sabian. 59 Takeshita out performed everyone else (69, next best Miro and Silver 57) Sabian seemed off his game. Takeshita benefitted from being flavour of the month. After the match, Don Callis gets in the ring and tells the world Konosuke Takeshita is the Alpha of AEW... then saying he is not worried about Sammy Guevara's plan for Revolution and the street fight between the Family and Le Sex Gods... he says Guevara doesn't have the brains to come up with a good plan. 44 v 'The Peacock' Dalton Castle (with The Boys) v 'The Anaconda' Jack Perry (with Jake 'The Snake' Roberts) Last week Jack Perry aligned himself with Jake Roberts and this week you can already see the results, as he is both more focused and more vicious than ever before. He lay into Castle with deliberate purpose and relentless aggressiveness. His usual fast paced, high flying style has almost vanished. This is a new Jack Perry and one that means business and will take no prisoners. He won in 8:39 by submission with an Anaconda Vice. 53 Backstage interview area now and Lexy Nair is doing her usual twice weekly interview with the AEW League team not in action tonight... and tonight it is Peak of Perfection who sit proud at the top of the table. Naturally they are all very happy with how the league is going for them... Jay White says it is no surprise with the talent they have... Killswitch... Wardlow... Thunder Rosa... Deonna Purrazzo... and MJF who for once doesn't say too much, but he does say "We're better than you... and you know it". 57 Deonna Purrazzo is getting better at her gimmick. v 'The Virtuosa' Deonna Purrazzo & 'CEO' Mercedes Moné v 'Timeless' Toni Storm (Women's World champion) & Mariah May (with Luther) A good match, with a somewhat chaotic finish. Purrazzo and Moné teamed up well, perhaps to the surprise of some. The finish came when Purrazzo and Storm finally got in the ring together, started to have more of a hockey style fight, which then split to ringside, then into the fans and then into the arena concourse. Back in the ring, Moné and May were left alone for their respective teams and Moné finished the job in 11:54 by submission with a Bank Statement. 62 Moné out performed everyone else (73, next best Purrazzo 62) May performed worse than everyone else (40, next worst Storm 56) May seemed off her game. May benefitted from public support. The Acclaimed and Daddy Ass are in the backstage interview area. The Acclaimed proudly have the World Trios Championship belts draped over their shoulders while Billy Gunn has his dangling from his neck. They say they are ready for Revolution, ready for Mogul Embassy and ready to keep their titles. 41 v FTW CHAMPIONSHIP FTW RULES Hook (champion) v Buddy Matthews (with Julia Hart) A reasonable match that saw a good mix of high flying, technical wrestling and weapons use. It was very even with both men getting a number of near falls. In the end Hook made defence number four of the title in 12:24 by submission with a Red Rum. 52 Hook and Matthews have great chemistry. Hook benefitted from public support. Jim Ross conducts a sit down interview with TNT champion Christian Cage and his now sole Revolution challenger, Daniel Garcia. JR asks Cage how he feels that Adam Copeland is missing the match through injury... Cage responds by saying that Copeland isn't injured, he's a coward who is scared of facing the best TNT champion and father in AEW history... Daniel Garcia responds by saying that for somebody who is such an established veteran and star of wrestling... Christian Cage is also an established jackass... the two stand and square up to each other, with Cage pushing the TNT Championship belt in Garcia's face, telling him it's the closest he will ever get to it. 61 v AEW LEAGUE Team Swerve (Samoa Joe (World champion)) v TV Network (Matt Cardona) A decent match and Cardona was tough, putting up a really good fight... though the World champion was simply too good for him, winning in 12:47 by submission with a Coquina Clutch. 64 Joe out performed Cardona 70-54 MJF is about to get in a limo to leave the arena when a camera crew catches up with him. At first MJF flips them off, saying he wants to check out the ladies of Connecticut... but then he changes his mind and does have a few words for the camera... specifically Will Ospreay... he says Ospreay has achieved a lot in Japan, more than most Americans have ever achieved over there (either ignoring or forgetting that Ospreay is English)... but this is America... this is AEW... and this is where MJF was World champion for a record setting 406 days... and he will show Ospreay at Revolution that "I am better than you... and you know it." 79 MJF's performance was fantastic. v AEW LEAGUE The Golden Lion Club (Claudio Castagnoli & Lucha Brothers (with Alex Abrahantes)) v Timeless Ensemble ('The Patriarch' Christian Cage (TNT champion), Darby Allin & 'Absolute' Ricky Starks A very good match and one where most would probably give the edge to The Golden Lion Club. However, it may surprise some that it was Timeless Ensemble who picked up the win and three points to continue their steady climb up the league after a slow start. Their win arrived in 18:52 when Starks pinned Castagnoli with a Roshambo. 71 - match of the night Cage benefitted from being in amazing form. Starks benefitted from being flavour of the month.

Nobby_McDonald Posted April 24 Author Share Posted April 24 RAMPAGE Wednesday, week 1, March 2024 Broadcast on Friday, week 1, March 2024 Foxwoods Resort Casino, Mashantucket, Connecticut (3,600 capacity) Announce team: Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Chris Jericho. Renee Paquette starts the show with the Ring of Honor Women’s World champion, Athena. Athena says she is delighted to be back on AEW TV and tonight she faces Willow Nightingale in the main event… she says there is a reason that she has been Ring of Honor Women’s World champion for over a year… and it’s because she’s the best… and tonight she’s advancing to the second round of the Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament. 52 OWEN HART FOUNDATION MEN’S TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND Colten Gunn v Nick Comoroto A poor match and one that went with expectations as Gunn won in 6:32 by pinfall with a Colt 45. 38 Gunn out performed Comoroto 42-31 In the backstage interview area we see Nyla Rose, where she says she’s going to run through everyone on the way to winning the Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament… because she’s the Native Beest. 42 Mogul Embassy v The Iron Savages Another pretty poor match and again the favourites won as Mogul Embassy had their hands raised in 7:17 when Brian Cage pinned Bronson with a Weapon X. 45 Jacked Jameson seemed off his game. Renee Paquette is now backstage with Willow Nightingale. Willow says she respects Athena, she respects her perfect win loss record in Ring of Honor and she respects the fact she has been champion for so long… but this isn’t Ring of Honor… it’s All Elite Wrestling… where the best wrestle… and Willow says she will show Athena who is the best tonight. 53 ‘Limitless’ Keith Lee v Parker Boudreaux The return of two men who have been out of action in AEW for quite a while. It was easy to see who returned better and who is the better wrestler in the match as Lee won in 9:05 by pinfall with a Spirit Bomb. 49 Lee far out performed Boudreaux 59-24 In the locker room we see Jay Lethal, Jeff Jarrett, Satnam Singh and Sonjay Dutt. Jarrett is complaining that they haven’t been having matches lately, that they can’t beat some ass and make some cash… until Lethal points out that both he and Singh are members of AEW League teams and have been getting some matches… leading to Sonjay Dutt and Satnam Singh having to break up the start of an argument between Jarrett and Lethal before it escalates. 50 OWEN HART FOUNDATION WOMEN’S TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND ‘Fallen Goddess’ Athena v Willow Nightingale Easily the best wrestling of the match between two skilled women, and the contest was pretty even throughout. Ultimately it was the Ring of Honor Women’s World champion who prevailed, with Athena beating Nightingale in 15:05 with a Top Rope Stunner. 62 – match of the night Show rating: 56 Attendance: 3,018 TV rating: 0.06 (50,425 viewers and 80,380 overall) QUICK RESULTS Athena beat Willow Nightingale in Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament First Round Keith Lee beat Parker Boudreaux Mogul Embassy beat The Iron Savages Colten Gunn beat Nick Comoroto in Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament First Round 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobby_McDonald Posted April 25 Author Share Posted April 25 PRE SHOW Taya Valkyrie beat Anna Jay by pinfall in 9:50 with a Road to Valhalla. 40 COLLISION Saturday, week 1, March 2024 Lowell Memorial Auditorium, Lowell, Massachusetts (2,800 capacity) Announcers: Kevin Kelly, Nigel McGuinness & Tony Schiavone We start with Chris Jericho in the ring, and he asks his Le Sex Gods tag team partner Sammy Guevara to come to the ring. Sammy does and Jericho gets straight to the point... he asks Sammy what the plan is tomorrow night at Revolution as he's being kept in the dark. Sammy tells Jericho not to worry, everything is in hand and it's all go for tomorrow night... Jericho asks what is... Sammy says he can't say... but Don Callis Family won't know what has hit them. 62 v AEW LEAGUE Timeless Ensemble ('The Patriarch' Christian Cage (TNT champion)) v Team WooItsNathan ('Superbad' Kip Sabian (with Penelope Ford)) A big opportunity for the Brit here. If he can beat the TNT champion not only will he pick up his team's first three points, but he will be very likely to get a TNT Championship match. It never looked likely to happen though as the veteran champion out wrestled and out fought him. Cage took the points and the win in 8:13 by pinfall with a Killswitch. 62 Cage far out performed Sabian 70-48 Cage benefitted from being in amazing form. Backstage and Alex Marvez interviews Prince Nana and the Mogul Embassy. Nana says he has the trio ready for tomorrow night, where they will kick The Acclaimed and Daddy's ass and take the AEW World Trios Championship... and then when Swerve wins the big one, they will all have gold. 43 Nana benefitted from a hot catchphrase. v Dark Order v Top Flight A decent match, better than perhaps some people expected. Dark Order were once, in the early days of AEW, quite a formidable group. Now though they are a shadow of their former selves. Top Flight, while their careers have been steadily on the rise in AEW have never quite taken off. They picked up a good win here in10:40 when Dante pinned Reynolds with a Red Eye. 60 Both teams have excellent chemistry. Dante benefitted from a hot new move. Renee Paquette is backstage with Undisputed Kingdom, including the injured Adam Cole. While Cole says he is surprised that Orange Cassidy has friends apart from the Best Friends... Roderick Strong says they aren't worried as the Undisputed Kingdom are great friends and a close knit group who have each others backs... and Strong is going to take the International Championship tomorrow night from Cassidy. 53 Cole benefitted from a hot catchphrase. v OWEN HART FOUNDATION MEN'S TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND Chuck Taylor v Anthony Bowens (World Trios champion) A decent match and although Taylor seemed off his game, he still managed to pull a win out of the bag, advancing in 9:58 by pinfall with an Awful Waffle. 57 Taylor seemed off his game. Bowens benefitted from public support. Lexy Nair is backstage for her AEW League team interview and it's with The Spooky Club, with the eclectic group once again without Emi Sakura who is in Japan. Sting and Malakai Black have the same review... saying it's not going well being eighth in the league and only the pointless Team WooItsNathan behind them. Julia Hart says it is very disappointing as The House always wins... and the interview closes with Danhausen (attempting?) to curse the other teams. 46 Danhausen benefitted from public support. v AEW LEAGUE TV Network (Will Ospreay, Jay Lethal (with Sonjay Dutt) & Johnny TV (with Taya Valkyrie)) v Black Lotus ('Alpha' Konosuke Takeshita (with Don Callis), 'Natural' Dustin Rhodes & 'The Redeemer' Miro) Another good match, the night has been good for in ring action so far, and it was one that could have gone either way with everyone hitting signature moves. In the end it was Black Lotus collecting three points in 13:23 when Miro submitted Jay Lethal with Game Over. 62 Takeshita benefitted from being flavour of the month. TV is improving at his gimmick. Backstage and the World Tag Team champions Darby Allin and Sting are clearly pissed off at their Revolution challengers... but Darby says they will let their fists do their talking tomorrow night... as Sting says that the only thing to expect from Stinger is the unexpected... and he pulls out a chequebook... which is a AEW business chequebook (do people even still use these?)... and there are some blank cheques that have been signed by Nicholas Jackson... so Sting says he is going to have some fun... he writes one out to a children's charity for $100,000... he writes one out to Tony Schiavone for $10,000... he writes one out to the Owen Hart Founation for $50,000... and he writes a final one out for a health insurance company for $25,000... "because you Young Bucks are going to need it after tomorrow night... it's Showtime". 62 v AEW LEAGUE The Peak of Perfection (Thunder Rosa & 'The Virtuosa' Deonna Purrazzo) v The Golden Lion Club (Athena & Ruby Soho) Another good and very close match. Another that could have gone either way with all four ladies hitting signature moves. In the end the league leaders pulled further clear when Rosa pinned Athena in 11:47 with a La Rosa. 60 Rosa seemed off her game. Athena benefitted from being in amazing form. Jim Ross conducts a pre recorded it down interview with Bryan Danielson and Jay White, who meet tomorrow night at Revolution. JR asks Danielson if he expected Jay White to answer his open challenge for Revolution... Danielson replies by saying yes... he is in his final chapter of his career and he's made no secret he wants matches against the best and matches against dream opponents... and Jay White is a worthy opponent for his final chapter... JR then asks White why he accepted the challenge... White says Danielson is one of the best ever... so for the Switchblade to be the best ever, he has to beat the best ever. 72 White benefitted from being flavour of the month. v 'Switchblade' Jay White (with The Gunn Club) v Penta El Cero Miedo (with Alex Abrahantes) If White saw this as a tune up match, he's in with a dangerous opponent for one. Penta is very capable in the ring and when he wants to be, downright violent. It was a very good match, the best yet on a really good night wrestling. And another that could have gone either way. In the end White won in 12:23 by pinfall with a Blade Runner. 72 - match of the night White and Penta have pretty good chemistry. White benefitted from being flavour of the month. Will Ospreay comes to the ring and addresses MJF's comments from Dynamite on Wednesday night... he talks about his respect and even admiration that MJF was the AEW World champion for over a year... to be the top dog for so long takes ability, guts and determination... which is something that Ospreay says he has even more of, bruv... and tomorrow night at Revolution the fans will be treated to a match for the ages and when MJF is added to the list of superstars that he has beaten, it will be Will Ospreay who will be top dog sooner rather than later... bruv. 64 v AEW LEAGUE The Bryan Danielson Appreciation Society ('American Dragon' Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta) v Team Swerve (Swerve Strickland (with Prince Nana), Samoa Joe (World champion) & Mike Santana) A good match, though not as even as some of the earlier contests as although the World champion and one of the number one contender was on one team, their trio wasn't able to compete with the slick teamwork from three quarters of the Blackpool Combat Club. This lead to three points for BDAS in 16:17 when Moxley submitted Joe with a Bulldog Choke. 70 Show rating: 70 AEW increased popularity in 13 regions. Attendance: 2,800 (sell out) TV rating: 1.03 (776,374 viewers and 1,106,864 overall) QUICK RESULTS Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta beat Swerve Strickland, Samoa Joe & Mike Santana (league match) Jay White beat Penta El Cero Miedo Thunder Rosa & Deonna Purrazzo beat Athena & Ruby Soho (league match) Konosuke Takeshita, Dustin Rhodes & Miro beat Will Ospreay, Jay Lethal & Johnny TV (league match) Chuck Taylor beat Anthony Bowens in Owen Hart Foundation Men's Tournament First Round Top Flight beat Dark Order Christian Cage beat Kip Sabian (league match) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
