It's sort of a tentpole show tonight with Britt vs. Rosa for the women's title, Sky vs. Wardlow for the TNT Title, and the Hardys making their AEW in-ring debuts against Private Party. TUE is out for their trios match against Page and Jurassic Express. Tremendous teamwork takes out Luchasaurus before Page comes in and hits Fish with a pop-up powerbomb for 2 before Fish avoids the buckshot. TRIPLE MOONSAULT BLOCKS BY THE FACES and it gets 2 for Jack! Craziness across the board before Jack hits a DOUBLE DOOMSDAY DEVICE before falling to the boom. THIS RULED!
Keith Lee and Team Taz chat about a truce. REGAL IS AMAZING ON COMMENTARY before the match. He thanks JR and Tony and says the masked man has done nothing for him before asking what on Earth Danhausen is. Regal vs. Danhausen in a comedy match has to happen at some point. "Pray tell, man with the mask - who is the demon wraith?" "I don't have any merch yet - but I do have jams for sale!" MUTA LOCK by Danielson! KIMURA BY MOX! Yuta gets a corner forearm shiver and a German for 2! Moxley bites Taylor's nose and Death Riders him on the floor.
Danielson gets 2.9 off the Regalplex and a MASSIVE Yuta chant breaks out. Basement face stomps from Bryan lead to the bulldog choke and the win. THIS TEAM IS AMAZING! Regal works as a contrast and compliment for both of them as well - tremendous chemistry with all of them. Yuta smacks the shit out of Regal and Regal lets him live and he's impressed by him. TREMENDOUS star-making deal there.
Starks hypes up The Acclaimed to take out the new guys. Swerve says that he's turned Rampage into his house. JAS arrives. Matt Lee saying that EVERYONE SHOULD BE THANKFUL TO JERICHO FOR LETTING THEM SING HIS SONG is hilarious. He should have said they should be grateful he doesn't charge them royalties for it. Jericho says that Sammy walked out on him and PnP and their buddy Kingston embarrassed him.
Jericho says that HE IS A SPORTS ENTERTAINER and Garcia says he is too! Jericho says that he dedicated thousands of dollars to guys in January of 2019 who got into a car accident and the man who was told he would never walk again. MATT LEE AND JEFF PARKER get their real names back and HIS OLD PAL KEVIN told him to try to get them a job at his recommendation due to his podcast and he did that. Deeb-Shida hype video with Deeb insulting her a bunch. Hyped for Jericho to demand his legal counsel ensure that anyone hurt by the JAS has their contract frozen during their recovery time.
Wardlow's out for his TNT Title match. Austin VanZant gets tossed in for the powerbomb and doesn't know how to do that, so it looks like he's leaning in to give Wardlow head. POWERBOMB SYMPHONY TIME! Lambert distracts Wardlow and Sky rolls outside before Spears comes out. MJF posts him and Spears distracts the ref. Schoolboy gets the win - okay, that was good. Austin rains down shitty elbows. POWERBOMB ATTEMPT TO MJF, but Spears chairshots him! Austin gets an RNC and MJF pays off Lambert before KOing him with the ring. Tha twas the best possible way to have Wardlow lose while also having Sky look iffy.
Private Party vs. Hardys is up with Quen looking so fly in his intro. Hardys look enough like their younger selves to pull this off visually, which is amazing given the lives they've lived. In the ring though..not quite there. Jeff can move quickly in spurts and Matt can at least strike quickly. Twisto into the Silly String into a twisto in stereo! SWANTON just crushes and he's becoming like latter-day Savage where he's just going to kill folks with that shit. AFO is out and Sting and Darby save.
Big intro for Rosa in her hometown while Britt's out in her Hall jacket and revamped gear. It's amazing how his legacy lives on through her as a main eventer by association. God, the Rosa intro shows how easy it is to make a star in their hometown.
Britt gets raked against the cage and sliced up! They fight outside and since the cage is larger, they can brawl and toss each other around the cage. SUPERKICK TO THE REF BY BRITT! Britt gets cradled to no count. FIRE THUNDER DRIVER HITS TO NO COUNT! NO! Britt chairshots her and sets up a ton of chairs AVALANCH AIR RAID CRASH ON THE CHAIRS!
"They've opened the door for Aubrey Edwards..." - much like the first cell. Britt sets up a chair pyarmid and hits it! TACKS! Backdrop sends them right into Rosa's ass and Britt wants Lockjaw but ROSA SLAMS HER HAND INTO THE TACKS and then powerbombs her onto the tacks! FIRE THUNDER DRIVER WINS IT FOR ROSA! What a win - not as great a match as last year's, but better than the PPV match easily. Love her celebrating and Dustin coming out to hug her.
