AEW Dynamite 11-2-22 - Jericho ROH Champion Challenge

It's a fairly loaded TV lineup tonight with a rock-solid night of action and an ROH World Title challenge and Cage faces Joe for the ROH TV Title. Darby vs. Lethal starts things off and THE VETERAN JAY LETHAL just feels odd. Darby jumps him and wants a dive, but Singh blocks it and Lethal slugs him in the ribs off the distraction! FIGURE FOUR UNDER THE BARRICADE - I love it. Basically the same idea as the ringpost figure four, but safer.


King's Elbow misses and the RNC is locked on! A guy in a Sting coat and hoodie bat shot Darby and the Lethal Injection hits! LETHAL WINS IT! Cole Karter unmasks and JEFF JARRETT RETURNS and bonks Darby. His family's fingerprints are on AEW and he's here to leave people laying in bodybags. He messes up a bit but recovers by blaming the camera guy and we get an MJF recap. Mox says he respects Lee, but he's not quite nasty enough for the BCC. They're teachers though and he'll give him a lesson in pain tonight. We get another video of the Elite being erased - I'm leaning towards this being Cutler in-universe since he edits BTE and came back before they did. 


Mox vs. Lee Moriarty is up and Lee's got some slick green hair and Ethan Page is here on commentary. Lee goes for the BCC trapped stomps and fights up to his knees - this is a star-making match for Moriarty.  KING KONG LARIAT! Arm slicer by Lee and he eats a cutter! Pop-up knee by Lee and a back suplex hits alongside a German by Mox! Kimura into a cross armbar by Mox! BORDER CITY STRETCH/Gargano Escape is on from Lee! Harder cross armbar from Mox wins it - this ruled! 


Renee and Saraya are backstage for their interview and Britt no-shows it. DADDY ASS AND THE ACCLAIMED HAVE ARRIVED! They talk about scissoring taking over the world and get in a knock on Elon Musk for the twitter stuff. ACCLAIMED SCISSOR FINGERS! In-canon, they're made so BILLY CAN SCISSOR WITH BUSTED HANDS! They ask to be adopted and THE ASS BOYS ARE OFFENDED! Morrisey boots Billy! Britt bitches and wants a tag match with Jaymie on Rampage.



Ring of Jericho time with Ian out and THEY'RE IN BALTIMORE! HE'LL KICK ANY CHAMPION'S ASS - TV, TAG TEAM, WOMEN'S CHAMP HE'LL EVEN KICK LAVAR JACKSON'S ASS! The Ocho gimmick is amazing! COLT CABANA IS THE EX CHAMP! Ian says that Colt is back just for the ROH Title and the history of the company. 



Love this as a fuck you to Punk. Jericho is selling his ass off for Colt, who is working a serious style with a tad bit of comedy. BILLY GOAT'S CURSE IS ON! CODEBREAKER OFF AN IRISH WHIP gets it. This was fun. All-Atlantic title match time and the contract is out for the Rampage dream match. I love PAC not just always having a hammer, but wanting Fenix to cheat to win. Well, it is a triple threat match without DQ...so he's not wrong.


Luchasaurus clubs dudes and stands tall for a bit but the ORANGE PUNCH HITS HIM! JACK WEARS OUT LUCHASAURUS WITH A CHAIR AND SENDS LUCHASAURUS THROUGH A TABLE NEXT TO THE STAGE! SHIBATA COMES OUT and it's Shibata vs. OC on Rampage! Rick Ross is with Swerve and Lee doesn't support their actions. Marina vs. Jade is up and we get Nyla and Vickie on commentary. Holy God. Pump kick and Jaded end it. Joe vs. Cage is up as the main event. 


House of Black video has Julia burying Malakai and Brody and laying them to rest. Toni and Jaymie is official for the PPV and Toni talks about them being roommates in the pandemic and Toni blames Britt for everything. Cage vs. Joe is up and Cage kind of has to win this after losing 200 title matches in two years. Cage is ripped as shit and demolishes Joe before tapping to the choke. Joe is saved by Wardlow and Hobbs jumps him!
