St. Paul, Minnesota (Roy Wilkins Auditorium)
Results by: Alex Kahrs of Wrestleview.com
It is Wednesday, my dudes…and you know what that means!
We’re greeted with an opening intercut with footage from A Minecraft Movie which is a sponsor for tonight, before commentary runs down the lineup. We head to ringside for our opening match as Blake Christian enters first. We get footage of his work in ROH to get better acquainted as Christian steps into the ring, and out next is the International Champion himself, ready for non-title action as Kenny Omega comes out to a big pop from the St. Paul crowd. Omega enters the ring, getting the crowd rowdy once more before this match gets underway!
Non-Title Match: AEW International Champion Kenny Omega vs. Blake Christian
The crowd chants for Kenny before he and Christian lock up, trading holds until Blake gets a snapmare on the champ. Omega back up, taking Blake down with a side headlock as Christian fights to his feet. He eventually breaks free of the champ, flipping him off as the crowd boos…and Kenny responds with some chops and a running kick to take him to the canvas. Christian dodges Omega in the corner, attacking the champ’s kidney until Kenny fights back with some right hands.
He hits the ropes for speed but is met with a dropkick by Blake, who mocks Kenny’s gun salute and manages to get a thumb to the eye of Omega when the latter tries to fight back. He sends Kenny to the floor before going after him once more, sending the champ back into the ring…but is taken down by a revived Omega! Kenny knocks Lee Johnson off the apron before hitting a snap dragon suplex on Christian, not once but twice for full effect.
He hoists Blake up, driving his knee into the back of Christian’s neck for even more damage before catching him with a V-Trigger off the ropes. One-Winged Angel puts Blake down for the pin and the win by the International Champion!
Winner via pinfall: Kenny Omega
Kenny gets a microphone after the match, addressing the crowd about giving them a show tonight (and quickly) before turning his attention to the two men that are facing him at Dynasty for the title, Ricochet and “Speedball” Mike Bailey. This gets the latter out as Speedball’s music hits, bringing Bailey out to a nice reception from the crowd as he walks down the ramp with a microphone in hand. Crowd chants “Speedball” as the two address each other, with Blake congratulating Omega on the win and calling him an inspiration.
He admires Omega as a wrestler, as a champion, and as a person, but come Dynasty he will not hold anything back. He is prepared to kick Kenny’s head clean off to take his International Championship. Kenny starts to respond when the pair are cut off by Ricochet who comes to us via the screen on what will soon be his wedding day. He runs down Bailey and Omega, promising that the next best day of his life will be when he takes the International Championship at Dynasty. Ha ha!
Kenny tries to respond but the video cuts out, forcing Omega to focus on Bailey as he promises to retain at Dynasty. He welcomes Mike to AEW and wishes he could talk more but he must bid us adieu…so good night (mwah) and goodbye (bang)!
Omega’s music hits as we take a look back at Collision and the confrontation between Bandido and Chris Jericho, the latter dealing with a rowdy kid in the front row.
We cut backstage as Jericho addresses the “ugly truths” while telling his Learning Tree students that they need to prove themselves to him one last time. Bryan Keith and Big Bill walk off as Jericho says he wants Bandido’s mask. He puts up his ROH World Championship on the line, issuing a Title vs. Mask match for Bandido at Dynasty before talking about making the luchador’s mother cry once more.
We head back to ringside as MJF comes out to a chorus of boos. He enters the ring, running down the St. Paul crowd before calling MVP out to give him the answer he’s looking for. MVP comes out to the crowd chanting “we hurt people” before entering the ring. MJF compliments MVP on his cane before talking about the promise he made himself after dealing with Adam Cole of not doing “friends” again…but he knows that MVP doesn’t do friends either, he does business. He tells MVP that he wants to be in the business of hurting people, and he extends a hand…but before MVP can shake on it, the Hurt Syndicate’s music hits once more as Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin step out.
The tag champs enter the ring, Bobby extending a hand…but not to shake Maxwell’s, instead telling him to hand over the card. MVP looks shocked by this as MJF hands the card to Lashley…and the champ tears it in half! MJF says they can do this right now, but backs off when he’s shown a fist by Lashley as MVP tries to insist that they’re cool, that everything is cool. Maxwell doesn’t seem to think this is cool as he leaves the ring and goes back up the ramp…and out comes Big Bill and Bryan Keith.
A few verbal jabs are exchanged between Bill and MVP as the big man addresses never being pinned or submitted to lose the titles, and the man that took the titles from him and his partner retiring before the team could get their rematch. The jabs continue as MVP and the tag champs leave the ring, confronting the two men on the stage. Bill says he’s going to invoke his rematch with his new partner Keith, but MVP tells the pair to win a match and then they’ll consider accepting the challenge. MVP drops the mic as the trio head to the back, and we got to an ad break.
-Commercial Break-
We head backstage as Thunder Rosa and Toni Storm address their tag match later tonight, as well as Rosa’s interest in challenging for the title she never officially lost. Storm insists they need to focus on their opponents tonight, as Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford are told to look out for the team of Thunderti–I mean, Thunder Storm.
Back at ringside, Brody King makes his way out for our next contest. Don Callis accompanies Kyle Fletcher to the ring though he apperas to not be on commentary as this match gets underway!
Kyle Fletcher vs. Brody King
Kyle takes control of the match early on, taking Brody to the corner before removing his pants to reveal trunks. This gives King an opening to lay into the Protostar, forcing him out of the ring at first and then taking Fletcher down hard when he returns. He drops Fletcher to the mat with a chop after absorbing two from Kyle, but Fletcher fights back forcing King to the ropes for a couple stomps.
Brody blocks a hammer throw attempt, instead forcing Fletcher out of the ring with a clothesline over the top rope as we go to an ad break on Max.
-FULL AD BREAK ON MAX-
Back from break, Fletcher fights back in the ring with a boot to King’s face, only to be driven down hard by Brody. Both men are down as the ref begins the count, but are able to get back up when King takes Fletcher out with a back body drop that forces him to roll out of the ring…only to be dropped to the floor with a dive by the big man!
King doesn’t keep control for long as Fletcher drives him into the ring post and then the LED barricade, adding to the damage when he enters the ring to hit a dive through the ropes on King. This forces both men down as the ref begins a new count, and Fletcher enters the ring…so too does Brody, but this prompts Kyle to go up top for an elbow drop. Cover by the Protostar, but it’s only good for a two count.
King powers out of a slam attempt, sending Fletcher toward the corner and onto the canvas with an exploder suplex before bringing him over to the apron…driving him down hard onto the hardest part of the ring! The two men are down and the ref checks on them as we go to an ad break on Max.
-FULL AD BREAK ON MAX-
Back from break, both men have returned to the ring and are trading strikes when Kyle lands a couple kicks…only to be laid out with a rolling elbow from King, who sets him up for a powerbomb. Fletcher counters out, hitting a set of kicks before lifting Brody up for a stalling tombstone piledriver. He makes the cover, but King manages to kick out just in time!
King heads to the corner to recover as Fletcher heads to the corner, charging toward the big man…who lays him out with a massive lariat instead! King looks to finish things off but Kyle is saved by Mark Davis, who backs away as Fletcher puts Brody up on the turnbuckle. He fights back, sending Fletcher to the canvas but is met with a gouging of eyes by the Protostar…who drops King down hard with a turnbuckle brainbuster for the win!
Winner via pinfall: Kyle Fletcher
Fletcher celebrates the win before he and Davis go after Brody King…until the music of Powerhouse Hobbs stops them in their tracks! Hobbs comes running through the crowd to intercept the Family in the ring, until King sends Fletcher out of the ring with a clothesline as we get a graphic indicating that Hobbs vs. Davis is up next!
-Commercial Break-
Back at ringside, officials have tried to calm the situation down between Hobbs and Davis as they get back into the ring, clearing out the security to get ready as the ref calls for the bell to get this match underway!
Mark Davis vs. Powerhouse Hobbs
It’s a hoss fight as the two men trade big strikes, with Davis eventually getting the upper hand before Hobbs regains control. He slams Mark down hard before Davis catches him with an enziguri…but as he runs the ropes, Davis is hit with a big spinebuster that gets Hobbs the pin and the win!
Winner via pinfall: Powerhouse Hobbs
Don makes his escape from commentar as Hobbs leaves the ring, heading up the ramp and to the back.
We go backstage to hear from The Patriarchy sans Christian Cage, as Nick Wayne addresses costing COPE the World Title match last week as well as his issues with the Patriarch himself. Wayne says he’ll save his thoughts on Cage for when they meet face to face, but what happened last week was an example of properly executing a plan.
He and his mother walk off, leaving a silent Kip Sabian as we go to an ad break.
-Commercial Break-
We see Swerve Strickland interrupted by Hangman Adam Page, the two arguing after Page’s remarks last week.
From there we go to the sit-down interview with Rated FTR, as Dax vents his frustrations about his team losing sight of the tag titles. COPE says that he wasn’t trying to take them away from the tag title scene, and a bit of an argument between them leads to Dax stating that he and Cash want a shot at the Hurt Syndicate…only for COPE to say he’d like one more shot at teaming up to chase the trios titles instead. This leads to Rated FTR issuing a challenge to the Death Riders for the AEW World Trios Championship at Dynasty…but can’t seem to agree on the catchphrase to close the segment.
Back at ringside, Swerve Strickland and Prince Nana come out to a big pop from the crowd. Strickland says he’s calling out Jon Moxley…not the Death Riders, just the AEW World Champion himself. Moxley’s music hits as the champ comes through the crowd sans briefcase, entering the ring with a microphone in his hand as he stands across from his challenger for Dynasty. Swerve says he’s allowed people to hold onto his title for too long, before asking Mox what happened.
He says the champ hides behind his Death Riders, even Marina Shafir, before saying that despite his claims that no one deserves to be the World Champion that Mox himself doesn’t deserve it. He says that Mox keeps the title in a briefcase because he can’t even see himself with the title on his shoulder. Strickland asks the champ how his back is doing before saying that everything he needs to be focused on is in front of him right here, right now.
The crowd reacts accordingly to the sight of Claudio Castagnoli standing behind Prince Nana, who looks more than a little nervous to turn around and face him. Mox says they’re all chilling before saying that Dynasty isn’t about him, it’s about Swerve versus Swerve. Who is Swerve, really? What is he, really. Mox knows, he knows exactly what Strickland is and what he can be. He had high hopes for Swerve but has been disappointed.
He says Swerve has a chance to prove himself at Dynasty, when he gets to ask himself how far he is willing to go to become champion. There are plenty of questions for him to ask himself, but ultimately he will suffer come April 6. Mox expresses his anger toward the way the company has been run as of late, saying guys like Swerve give him hope…but he’s not going to just give Strickland a handout. He asks Swerve once again how far he’s willing to go, since he calls himself the most dangerous man in AEW.
We see Marina stepping onto the apron, only to be confronted by Willow Nightingale as Swerve asserts that he IS the most dangerous man in this company. When he takes the title at Dynasty, Jon Moxley can continue to play that role on TV. Both men drop their mics, staring each other as the Death Riders finally back off. Mox leaves the ring, escaping to the crowd with the Death Riders until Shafir rushes at Willow to pull her off the apron.
The two women trade strikes until Claudio pulls Shafir away, and the Death Riders leave through the crowd as Swerve’s music hits.
Backstage, Shibata has commandeered a camera as Samoa Joe talks to HOOK about messing around with Max Caster, who we see talking to Top Flight and AR Fox about going solo just like he has. The Opps eventually catch the “Best Wrestler Alive” by surprise as Joe chokes him out, before they walk off.
We then get a video package hyping AEW Dynasty before going to ad break.
-Commercial Break-
Backstage, we hear from Jay White who declares himself for the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament this year, promising to go to All In Texas to get his shot at the AEW World Championship. He then issues an open challenge for Collision to see who will step up to the Switchblade.
Back at ringside, Top Flight heads out for our next match as Alex Findley and Devo Wright are already in the ring before this match gets underway!
Top Flight vs. Alex Findley & Devo Knight
Dante starts things off with Findley, taking him down hard before hitting a flurry of offense leading to a tag to Darius. He gets a few shots in on Findley as well before Dante tags back in, and this goes back and forth aside from Knight getting involved. Top Flight eventually take Findley down with a Crossover to pick up a quick victory in their hometown!
Winners via pinfall: Top Flight
We get a video package for Will Ospreay, who returns next week on Dynamite, and then head back to ringside for our next match! Out first is Mark Briscoe, followed by Konosuke Takeshita before this match gets underway!
Mark Briscoe vs. Konosuke Takeshita
Briscoe gets some shots in at the start but is quickly overpowered by Takeshita, who eventually sends Mark to the corner for more damage…until Briscoe fights back with a running forearm! He sends the Alpha to the outside, but is met with a boot to the face by a returning Takeshita. Briscoe in the corner as Konosuke stomps away, setting him up on the apron for a dropping DDT forcing him to the floor as we go to an ad break on Max.
-FULL AD BREAK ON MAX-
Back from break, both men are back in the ring as Takeshita sends Briscoe down hard to the mat…but Mark fights back with what he calls “Redneck Kung Fu” forcing Takeshita to the outside for a dive. Briscoe continues the attack, jumping on the barricade to walk along it for an elbow drop before sending Takeshita back into the ring.
He climbs up top for a Froggy Bow, but Konosuke evades it before hitting a German suplex. Briscoe gets back up and catches Takeshita with a lariat for a nearfall as Callis heads to ringside to will his man back into it. Takeshita blocks a Jay Driller before hitting a high boot on Briscoe…only for Mark to connect with an exploder on the Alpha! The two hit each other with suplexes before Takeshita takes Briscoe down for the cover…but Mark kicks out!
Lariat from Takeshita is no good as Briscoe lands a Jay Driller for the cover on the Alpha…who gets a boot on the bottom rope to stop the pin! Briscoe sets Konosuke on the turnbuckle for a Burning Hammer, but Takeshita breaks free for a rolling elbow and the Raging Fire to pick up the win!
Winner via pinfall: Konosuke Takeshita
Callis enters the ring to celebrate with Takeshita as we cut to a response from the Death Riders, who insist they are challenging Rated FTR to survive the Death Riders. This seems to confirm the World Trios Title match as we get a graphic for our main event coming up next!
-Commercial Break-
Backstage, we see the Hurt Syndicate discussing MVP’s offer to MJF. Lashley says he doesn’t like the guy as Benjamin points to Friedman’s reputation, but the three eventually come to something of a consensus on the situation as we cut away.
Back at ringside, it’s time for our main event as Penelope Ford and Megan Bayne enter first. Out next is Thunder Rosa, followed by “Timeless” Toni Storm as the team heads to the ring to get this match underway!
AEW Women’s World Champion Toni Storm and Thunder Rosa vs. Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford
We start things off with Bayne and Rosa as they trade offense. Rosa gets the upper hand on Megasus, until Bayne hits her with a scoop slam. This prompts Thunder to make a tag to the champ, who confronts Bayne until Ford gets a tag instead. She takes Toni to the canvas only for the champ to take control as a tag is made to Rosa, and the pair double-team Ford leading to a running dropkick by Rosa off the back of Storm for a cover and a nearfall. Rosa continues to stay on the attack as we go to an ad break on Max.
-FULL AD BREAK ON MAX-
Back from break, Bayne and Ford have taken control of the match as Bayne sends Thunder Rosa to the corner, allowing Penelope to get a nearfall on the former champion. The reigning champ makes it back to the apron on the opposite corner as Rosa and Ford send each other to the mat…and eventually make their respective tags!
Storm struggles to make Bayne budge before landing a jawbreaker and headbutt, forcing Megan to the ropes before sending her to the outside…only to be pulled out by Megasus as well! Storm catches her with a DDT before entering the ring again, but Ford takes her down before Rosa runs in with an attack forcing Ford to the outside. Bayne sends Rosa down hard with Fate’s Descent, but is then cut off by Storm who sends Megan to the corner for a hip attack. What she doesn’t see is Bayne getting back to her feet, as Ford grabs the champ to set up for a big boot from Megan…only for Storm to break free, forcing Ford to be laid out instead! Ford is sent out of the ring, but Toni is no match for a Fate’s Descent by Megasus who gets the pin and the win in this main event!
Winners via pinfall: Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford
Ford gets back in the ring to celebrate with Bayne as we see Storm still laid out, potentially raising the question of whether this will be the champ’s fate at Dynasty as the show comes to a close.
