Cassidy sees it, takes the quarters, and hits Jericho with an Orange Punch! One, two, three!
Winner: Orange Cassidy
Rating: ***1/4. Bless Orange Cassidy, he got a heck of a lot out of Jericho in this match… which went almost 20 minutes. That’s a tall task, but it was good and really picked up after the table.
Pac and Claudio haven’t heard from Wheeler Yuta since the PPV, as they said last week. Claudio isn’t mad, he’s just disappointed. We’ll see what happens tonight.
Wheeler Yuta left his title in the locker room but commits to defending his trios championship at Grand Slam next week.
Roderick Strong joins the commentary table for the next match.
Match #2. Hook vs. JD Ink
Northern Light’s suplex by Hook. Make that two. Head and arm Hookplex. Crossfaces now by Hook before locking in the RedRum… and this one’s over.
Winner: Hook
Rating: NR
Renee is here with The Patriarchy. Christian said he’s going to hold championships with his son, Nick Wayne, and he wants to be addressed at the future champion going forward. Kip Sabian tries to walk in, but Christian has no time for him and says he’ll bury him next to his father. Woof.
Match #3. Serena Deeb & Mariah May vs. Queen Aminata & Yuka Sakazaki
Yuka and Deeb go hold for hold to start the match. Aminata gets the tag and delivers a running PK as Yuka holds the leg and follows up with a low dropkick.

One, two… Mariah May cracks Yuka with the belt and draws the DQ.
Winners via DQ: Yuka Sakazaki & Queen Aminata
Rating: **. This was fine, but it felt kind of thrown together as Yuka is being pushed as a contender seemingly out of nowhere.
Mariah May beats Yuka with the belt before leaving.
Mina Shirakawa says she still misses Mariah May, and she wants to celebrate. Do you really want Mina? Does AEW really want Mina? Mina is coming!
After some technical difficulties, a video package of the history between Nigel McGuinness and Bryan Danielson is shown.

Moxley swings as Moxley as Moxley bails. Darby says he’s beating Moxley next week and then walking into Wrestle Dream to take the title.

Springboard clothesline by Ricochet back inside the ring, and a running Shooting Star Press. Two count. Tieres by Ricochet but Mortos shrugs him up and both guys trade arm drags.

Mortos meets Ricochet on the top rope and delivers an avalanche gorilla press! One, two, no! Ricochet counters an inverted fireman’s carry into a Crucifix Bomb! Ricochet looks for the axe kicks and… well, grazes Mortos barely. Vertigo by Ricochet and that’ll do it.
Winner: Ricochet
Rating: ***1/4. Fun sprint here which is exactly what you’d expect, but two obvious missteps took me out of it a bit. Ricochet is so clean so it stands out when things aren’t perfect. Mortos, by the way, also rules and should be on TV every damn week.
Tony Schiavone welcomes Hangman Page to the ring. Page says there are people that have cheered Swerve no matter what he’s done, and a special voice loud and clear above all. A voice coming clear from the commentary desk, as Page turns his attention to Tony Schiavone! Jeff Jarrett is here to make the save for Tony, and both guys brawl through the crowd. Jarrett tries to get a chair but Page bounces him off everything he can find at ringside. Page rolls Jarrett in the ring and looks for the Buckshot, but security finally gets here. Jay Lethal and Satnam Singh are here to pull Jarrett back as well. Jarrett grabs a mic and says everyone in the locker room wants to beat Page’s ass, and he’s at the front of the line.
Renee is with Ricochet… but here’s Will Ospreay. Will says there’s no heat baby, but Ricochet says he’s got Will Ospreay for the International Championship on Dynamite’s 5 Year Anniversary, two weeks away.
Match #5. The Elite vs. Don Callis Family
Running Hurricanrana by Ospreay to Okada, but Takeshita tags himself him. Okada sends Ospreay into Takeshita and the Bucks jump in. Triple sentons from the apron by The Elite, who then pose, roll outside, and pose again. Triple plancha by Don Callis Family. Back in the ring, we reset as Matt back suplexes Ospreay and isolate him from the rest of his team. Okada now tags himself in, snap mares Ospreay, and connects with a single leg sliding dropkick. Fletcher gets the hot tag and he dumps both Bucks with the snap Dragon suplex Running enziguiri to Matthew. One to Nicholas. Brainbuster to Nicholas for two. Corkscrew kick by Nicholas and Okada gets the tag. Okada clears Takeshita from the apron but runs into a Michinoku Driver. Takeshita ges the tag and delivers a huge Takeshitaline to Okada.

Double underhooks by Ospreay, right into a sit-out powerbomb by Fletcher! Monster Mafia, Ethan Page and Josh Alexander, used to do that finisher and it’s awesome. Two count. Fletcher wants a powerbomb but Nicholas counters with a rising knee. Double team Cutter to Nicholas by Ospreay and Fletcher. Dropkick by Okada to Takeshita. Takeshita wants the Rainmaker but Takeshita counters with a Blue Thunder Bomb! Somersault plancha to the floor by Takeshita on Okada.

Nicholas breaks up the pin. Fletcher catches a superkick and Ospreay comes out of nowhere with a Hidden Blade! Fidget Spinner to Matthew! One, two, three!
Winners: The Don Callis Family
Rating: ****1/4. No shit this match was anything but awesome. I’ve said it a hundred times but Fletcher and Takeshita are the FUTURE wherever they are, and that was on display here. Ospreay and Fletcher get The Bucks next week for the tag titles, and that story played into this match perfectly.
Final Thoughts: Kind of a messy episode tonight, with no real thread to the show and it kind of felt all over the place. The wrestling was pretty good, the main event especially, but we’ve got a decent amount of time before WrestleDream, though, so there isn’t a huge sense of urgency. Go out of your way to see the main event, though. 7.5/10.
