Mox starts off against Ryan Nemeth. Tony hypes up Dark Elevation, premiering on Youtube and Ryan now looks even more like Dolph. Mox slaps the shit out of him and crossfaces him. Saito suplex by Mox! Ryan lands a couple of forearms and a dropkick but gets locked in a neck crank and then the paradigm shift ends it. I love the front choke into the Paradigm Shift - great shoot-style transition.
Mox sits in a chair and says he'll do whatever he can to get that title - and now with the barb wire death match, he'll be able to prove it. He asks for the mental images that come to your mind when you think of the match - how do they make you feel? He's addicted to THIS and he's ungodly great here. He's just sucking you into the world and says if it all ends at Revolution, it's a hell of a way to go.
We get an 18 month-long hype video covering their whole history in AEW - and it's an epic. Alex chats with Fenix and Lance, who says that he carries their team and Fenix wants to take him out and prove he's better than his brother. They brawl and Hager vs. Cutler and Nyla vs. Britt are hyped up. Sting's brawl is recapped and I like this - it makes each show seem like an important deal. Starks and Cage face the Varsity Blondes next.
Papa Buck stuff recapped before they take a photo with Papa Buck near the truck with their faces on the back. Brian lands a nice sliding dropkick to the floor on Starks and hops on the rail before getting 2 on a la majistral. POST BOMB TO PILLMAN BY CAGE! Pillman dives onto Starks for 2 before Cage saves. DROPKICK/POWERBOMB TO STARKS GETS 2! STARKS SPEAR AND THE DISCUS SPEAR HITS! Drillclaw to Pillman ends it. This was a ton of fun and terrifying at the same time.
We get a kickass video of Sting or someone in his gear pulling Darby out of a bodybag. Sting PULLS HOOK OUT OF THE BODYBAG AND DARBY'S IN THE RAFTERS AND ZIPLINES IN WITH THE SKATEBOARD! STINGER SPLASH AND THE SCORPION DEATHDROP RETURN TO TNT! THIS RULES!
Miro says he'll take out Orange Cassidy and blames he and Charles for ruining the marriage of Penelope and Kip before Miro praises Charles for cleaning his stuff. They get a note from Charles about wanting a match at Revolution. Cutler is out and needs Ricky Steamboat as his manager for the Dragon and Dungeons and Dragons-master. Hager's out driving an invisible car and throws Cutler around with a wheelbarrow German, then a deadlift variant. Hager bomb, but Cutler avoids a corner charge and gets a gamenguri. SUICIDE DIVE AND THEN FLIP DIVE BY CUTLER! Lariat ends it and the IC attacks him. BUCKS MAKE THE SAVE!
Matt says he wants Jericho and MJF out now. They appear at the truck with Jericho in an all-time bad outfit EVEN FOR HIM before we see Papa Buck beaten up and then tossed into the back of the truck head-first. I love all of these recaps - it makes sure that major events ACTUALLY FEEL IMPORTANT and if you missed anything, you can catch up quickly. Next week's Dynamite is "The Crossroads" and Cody/Velvet vs. Shaq/Jade is hyped.
Kassidy vs. Page starts with Page going for a yakuza kick to Matt, but Kassidy attacks. MONSTER lariat by Hangman out of the corner. FALLAWAY SLAM! Aubrey ejects Matt, who gets a DELETE chant. Suicide dive by Page is met with an uppercut from Kassidy. Page is sent to the apron and eats a forearm, but Kassidy misses a rope charge. Hangman's right arm is hurt and he can't get a pin with it. Tornado kick by Kassidy hits.
DVD BY PAGE! SLIDING LARIAT MISSES Kassidy goes for a suplex, but Page gets a sheer-drop brainbuster for 2! JR talks about Karl Kox teaching the brainbuster to Dick Murdoch and now here it is today. Kassidy gets a cross armbar, but Hangman gets the rope. Kassidy hangmans the arm on the rope and shoves Silver. Deadeye ends it for Page!
Matt says that he wanted to give Page the world, but NOW HE'LL HURT HIM AND THE DARK ORDER! Matt shoves V off the stage through a table. Omega is busy CONTRUCTING THE MOXLEY EXTERMINATION CHAMBER! Callis threatening Marvez with pliers is fantastic. AEW women's title eliminator tourney is recapped in full quickly. They hype up the free Sunday BR Live special, which is somewhat loaded.
Long struggling headlock by Britt. Britt is sent out and throws a bitch-fit and throws shit around. Britt grounds her and elbows the shoulder. Not queen of strong style forearms on the mat there by Britt. Nyla hits a uranage on Reba ON THE APRON! Britt gets the glove, but gets chokeslammed and Reba gets tossed in the corner. CANNONBALL TO REBA! Russian legsweep into Lockjaw on a floatover! BUT NYLA SWINGS HER OVER FOR 2! POSSUM PIN BY BRITT GETS 2! Superkick party by BRITT! Crucifix bomb gets 2 and LOCKJAW IS ATTEMPTED AGAIN, but avoided with elbows! Right hook and a Beast Bomb hits-ish for 2.9! Tombstone is avoided and met with a superkick that is countered into ANOTHER BEAST BOMB TO WIN IT. This was quite good - not great tho.
Tully and FTR vs. Jurassic Express hype. Tully has been retired longer than Marko Stunt has been alive. Dax puts over that Tully came out of retirement for 30 years to take them out. Jericho and MJF will have a press conference on Dynamite next week. We'll hear from Paul Wight next week. Dark Order face TH2, Matt, and Private Party. 10 and Max Caster vie for a slot in the ladder match and Shida finds out her foe. Casino tag team royale is coming to Revolution.
Archer's out and Fenix goes for the reverse 619 and goes for a hook kick, but he's too far away and gets swatted. Fenix hits a rana off the top and then Jake shoves him off the top to the ramp. Fenix jumps over Jake to dive onto Lance, who then just chops the shit out of him on the barricade. Fenix gets bloodied and chops away with Lance kinda selling them.
BACKFLIP SELL FOR A LARIAT BY LANCE! CANNON BALL ON THE BARRICADE BY LANCE! Springboard double stomp to the back of Fenix! Ropewalk moonsault for 2! Corner charge eats a boot from Fenix, then a step-up gamenguiri! TIGHTROPE WALK PK! Rolling cutter by Fenix gets 2!
Lance hits a fisherman buster for 2. SPANISH FLY BY FENIX OFF THE TOP GETS 2! Fenix avoids a mask rip and lands a hook kick BUT EATS A POUNCE! BUCKLE BOMB INTO A CHOKESLAM GETS 2.9! They talk about TV time, but the Blackout ends it - so this was great and Fenix now isn't in the match that his brother is in. Archer gives him a fist bump. Great night of action!
