Women’s Owen Hart Tournament Semi-Finals: Mercedes Mone def. athena
It’s champion vs champion in the semi-finals! For several minutes, the women just bask in the cheers from the wild crowd. Both women prove to the other just how good they are and repeatedly take each other to the outside. It turns into a VERY physical match with strikes, knees, and a showdown on the apron AND ON THE RAIL!!!
Mercedes took a harsh kick into the barricade, but it wasn’t enough to stop her from rolling Athena up for a pinfall victory!
Hangman gets interviewed by Renee, but the Young Bucks and Okada walk into frame for the first time in months to act like they’re besties with Adam Page. Matthew & Nicholas want to get the Death Riders on their side and want Hanger.
Men’s Owen Hart Tournament Quarter-Finals: Hangman Adam Page def. Wild Card
Newest AEW signee Josh Alexander is the wild card in the tournament!!! Whoever wins this match will take on Kyle Fletcher in the semi-finals. Another VERY physical bout where Hanger has to resort to aerial moves to avoid the technical mastery of Josh Alexander, including a leaping lariat from the raised walkway over the crowd.
Hangman Adam Page secures the victory after a very lucky inside cradle following Alexander building up too much momentum. Kyle Fletcher comes out immediately after with Don Callis to intimidate Hanger who challenges Fletch to a fight. Don hides behind Cheesecake as Fletch and Page brawl. Don whispers into Alexander’s ear and JOSH ALEXANDER JUMPS ADAM PAGE FROM BEHIND!
Nick Wayne begins to go on about what happens when a father isn’t around… Kip points that CHRISTIAN CAGE IS BACK! Christian was impressed by Nick Wayne’s actions in recent weeks so he secured him a spot in NJPW Best of the Super Juniors. Christian also got a match with Komander, where he will go for the ROH TV title… alone.
AEW Tag-Team Titles: (C)Hurt Syndicate def. Gates of Agony
Meat! Meat! Meat! The Gates of Agony take it to the Hurt Syndicate, but it doesn’t take long for Bobby Lashley to take charge and throw Kaun over the announce table and all over ringside. Toa was quick to absorb all the strikes from Lashley. Shelton takes Kaun right down to Suplex City!
Hurt Syndicate get their victory and don’t get long to celebrate as we hear MJF’s music. MJF talks about the talent he brings to the table… and it’s A LOT of gorgeous women. MVP gives a thumbs up… Shelton still gives a thumbs down, but is closer to giving a thumbs up. Lashley still wants nothing to do with Max.
Men’s Owen Hart Tournament Semi-Finals: Will Ospreay def. Konosuke Takeshita
Crowd has already gone wild for this match and the bell has just rang! The digital wall on the barricade is still messed up from Mone vs Athena. Unique styles from both men and it’s sequence after sequence as nothing is super decisive by these wrestlers. Takeshita relies on power and Ospreay relies on his unpredictable offense.
Crowd chanting for BOTH THESE GUYS as both men get their second wind! WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE THIS MATCH!!! A surge of adrenaline fuels both wrestlers to try and prove themselves as the best in the world. Following a stormbreaker AND EVERYTHING HE HAD, Will Ospreay secures the victory!
Trios Tag-Team Titles: the opps def. ©Death Riders
Moxley fills in for PAC & Powerhouse Hobbs fills in for Hook! It’s a brawl all over ringside as Hobbs steamrolls Yuta (while the crowd chants meat???). Samoa Joe and then Shibata follow up on annihilating Mr. Yuta.
Moxley had a steel chair BUT WILLOW TAKES IT AWAY AND FLIPS MOX THE BIRD! It’s a six-man brawl as everyone goes down HARD. Willow and Marina stare each other down as the EVP Jacksons come down to ringside and grab chairs BUT SWERVE STOPS THEM BOTH AND DOES A DOUBLE STOMP ON THE JACKSONS!!! Samoa Joe locks the Coquina Clutch on Mox to get the victory!!! NEW CHAMPIONS!!!
As the Death Riders have been dethroned, Ospreay leads in the locker room to celebrate the NEW Trios Champions as the crowd chants A-E-Dub!!!
