Winner: Hangman Page

Rating: ****. Not a lot of fluff to this one. Two big, bad tough dudes just slugging it out until one man dropped. The end of this match was definitive, as Page looked like the better man tonight. Moxley continues to be the MVP of AEW.

After the match, Moxley tackles the referee, thinking he was Page. Page looks conflicted as he heads to the back, seemingly wondering if Moxley is truly hurt.

Back from commercial break and Excalibur informs us that the doctors are checking on Moxley for an apparent concussion.

Tony Schiavone is in the ring and doesn’t want to welcome his next guest, but…

ADAM COLE, BABY! BOOOOOOOOM. THE CROWD IS ABSOULTELY ON FIRE! COLE LOOKS EMOTIONAL. WHAT A MOMENT!

Who’s ready for story time with Adam Cole, baybay! Cole’s been thinking all day of what he’s going to say when he comes out here. Cole says this is a good news, bad news, situation. Cole says the good news is he has a whole new appreciation for his life. Cole has gotten to do a lot of cool things in his life, including being a part of the best pro wrestling company on the planet, AEW. Cole says he’s been battling back-to-back head injuries, a shoulder that was torn to shreds, and more. The worst part was the sleep, dealing with emotions, anxiety, and telling Britt he didn’t know what was happening to him. None of the fans knew what was happening to him, either, but the fans were still there for him. Pro wrestling is a give and take situation, and Cole had given the fans nothing for six months, and they were still there for him.

Now, the bad news. The bad news.. IS NOT FOR COLE. THE BAD NEWS IS FOR THE AEW LOCKER ROOM. BECAUSE ADAM COLE IS BACK, BABY! COLE THOUGHT HE WAS FINISHED, BUT NO WAY, HE AIN’T DONE YET.

Cole has been one of the best wrestlers on the planet for fifteen years, and he won’t stop until he IS the best. Cole has only scratched the surface of what he is capable of. Remember this day, the day the new Adam Cole is born. ADAM COLE, NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES, WILL BE THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN ONE DAY.

UNBELIEVABLE MOMENT.

Moriarty locks in a triangle choke but Jungle Boy picks him up into a powerbomb and both men are down. Tag to Hook! Clothesline to Moriarty and a Northern Light’s suplex that gets two.

Jungle Boy catches Moriarty in the Snare Trap and Moriarty is forced to tap!

Winners: JungleHook

Rating: **. Not too much of a match as it was short and sweet, but the suplex by Hook to Big Bill was worth the price of admission here. Crowd loves JungleHook.

Renee is here with Paul Hauser aka StingRay from Cobra Kai, and his Golden Globe. Oh, and DanHausen is there with Orange Cassidy. Hauser, who might be related to DanHausen, is going to show the award off on Rampage. Everything is cool with the Best Friends, by the way.

MJF is here! The people seem to think Takeshita is a big deal, according to Twitter and Reddit, but MJF hasn’t seen any of your stuff. MJF calls Takeshita “Take A Shit Uh,” and tells him he needs to win tonight’s match. Takeshita responds in Japanese. Pro tip from the world champ, we speak American. Takeshita says “Kiss My Ass!” MJF says people think he’s afraid of sixty minutes, but ask your mother, sister, and girlfriend how long he can last. Danielson is a nerd and MJF is about pinning shoulders to mats and banging rats. That’ll be a shirt.

Ken Jeong is here tonight, speaking of irrelevant. MJF runs down a list of things that Jeong is no longer part of. Freddie Prince Jr. is here, and you might remember him from Shes All That, but MJF won’t, because he was born in 1996. MJF calls Prince a Scooby Dooby Douchebag. Danielson hits the ring and MJF hightails it!

Match #3. Bryan Danielson vs. Konosuke Takeshita

Takeshita misses a running boot and Danielson misses a high kick. Blue Thunder Bomb attempt early by Takeshita but Danielson counters with a head lock takeover and it’s a stalemate. Romero Special by Danielson, before bringing Takeshita down and locking in the dragon sleeper with the leg lace. Takeshita reveres into a dragon sleeper of his own and Danielson fights out. Heavy elbows by Takeshita and Danielson responds in kind. Both men trade heavy strikes here, for what seems like minutes. Flying clothesline by Takeshita and Danielson is finally down. Danielson up quick with a half and half throw before looking to transition to a straight arm lock. Takeshita reclaims full guard and delivers some ground and pound until Danielson sweeps and tries for the Labell Lock, but Takeshita gets to the ropes. Round kicks by Danielson and a running dropkick in the corner. Make that two. Danielson attempts a third, but Takeshita catches him with a spinning Blue Thunder Bomb that gets 2.75! Takeshita delivers some more heavy overhand chops but Danielson back flips over and hits a running clothesline. The chops return and both men’s chest resemble rare hamburger meat. Takeshita gets dumped to the outside and Danielson follows with a tope suicida. Danielson heads up top but Takeshita catches him with a right hand and looks for a superplex. Danielson gets free and traps Takeshita in the tree of woe, before delivering some vicious kicks to the body. Danielson sets Takeshita back up on the top rope now and looks for the avalanche back suplex, but Takeshita regains his balance and hits a standing lariat of the top! One, two, NO! Takeshita calls for the powerbomb, but Danielson head scissors him over the top rope. Running knee off the apron by Danielson and both men come crashing down.. awkwardly.

Now it’s elbow city, baybaby, as both men trade in the center. Rolling elbow by Takeshita and a big lariat as both men are down! Takeshita looks for the sliding knee but Danielson transitions to the hammer and anvil elbows but Takeshita reverses to an over grip tombstone! Takeshita holds on! Wheelbarrow suplex! Two count! Takeshita looks for the running knee but Danielson moves and comes back with the Psycho Knee! TWO COUNT! Crowd is losing it! Arms trapped and Danielson is stomping Takeshita’s head before transitioning into the Regal Stretch and Takeshita is out!

Winner: Bryan Danielson

Rating: ****1/2. STAR. MAKING. PERFORMANCE. It seems like I say that every single time Takeshita wrestles, but tonight sure feels like it. Hard hitting, amazing crowd, great drama down the stretch, everything I look for in a professional wrestling match.

Renee Paquette is here with Juice Robinson. Rock Hard Juice Robinson challenges Darby for the AEW TV Title on Friday at Rampage, much to the delight of the crowd.

Match #4. Toni Storm & Saraya vs. Dr. Britt Baker DMD & Jamie Hayter

Hayter and Storm to start as the crowd seems split right down the middle. Heavy lock up to start. Elbows by Hayter but a dropkick by Storm sends Hayter to the outside, who finds herself on the receiving end of a cannonball off the apron. Storm makes the tag to Saraya, but Hayter suplexes them both. Anarchist Suplex off the apron by Baker to Storm! Hayter throws Saraya into the barricades at ring side. Shida now joins us at ringside, with kendo stick in hand. Baker and Hayter keep Storm in their corner as they put the boots to her as we head into a commercial break.

Hayterade by Hayter and that does it!

Winners: Dr. Britt Baker DMD & Jamie Hayter

Rating: **1/4. Fine match here but got a little lost down the stretch. I think everyone was expecting Mercedes Monet, and that didn’t happen. The seeds are being planted for the Shida heel turn, however, and that should be fun.

The Jericho Appreciation Society is here, decked in all gold. Daddy Magic’s nipples are hard because Hager powerbombed Ricky Starks through a table. Jericho lets us know that the JAS invaded PWG’s Battle of Los Angeles. Tay & Anna will beat Ruby and Willow on Rampage in a street fight. JAS wins again, and the Ricky Starks experiment is over.

Cue Ricky Starks. Action Andretti, too.

Stroke Daddy is still standing tall. Jericho calls Andretti an orphan. The man’s got a microphone. Andretti threatens to shove the baseball bat up Jericho’s ass. Garcia grabs the mic, but Andretti didn’t know Garcia’s new babysitter gave him permission to speak. Sammy can’t even keep control over own wife, or where her hands go, because last week, they were in between Andretti’s legs.

Starks says it ain’t about anyone but Jake Hager, who’s a big village idiot, with a dumb lisp. Starks wants a match with Hager next week, which was already announced. Hager wants to slap Starks face off his face.

Match #5. Escalera De La Muerte for the AEW World Trios Title Best of Seven Series: The Elite (3) vs. The Death Triangle (3)

The trios titles are hung high above the ring, and here we go! Tornado rules in this one, so there will be no tags.

Outside in cutter by Pac to Nick followed by a frog splash from Fenix. Fenix with a flipping cannonball senton as Nick baseball slides a ladder into the face of Penta and Pac.

I’m exhausted, already. Step up top rope double arm drag by Nick to the Lucha Brothers. Hard irish whip by Penta and Fenix sends Nick into a ladder propped up in the corner. WAZZAP dropkick to Omega’s lower parts WITH A LADDER. Penta and Matt fight over a ladder before Nick runs up the ladder and hits a corkscrew plancha to the outside that takes out Pac.

Omega climbs the ladder and gets the belt!

Winners and NEW AEW WORLD TRIOS CHAMPIONS: The Elite

Rating: ****. I don’t even know how to rate this. Was there selling? No. Did it make any sense whatsoever? Also no. Was it entertaining, and did I go “Holy S” about 10 times? I sure did. It was different than anything else on this show, and it was six guys going out there trying to damn near kill themselves for our entertainment, and it worked. I believe this will go down as the greatest pro wrestling best of seven series of all time, and, in doing so, make the AEW World Trios Titles far more prestigious.

Final Thoughts: Was it the best Dynamite ever? Maybe, and if not, it was darn close. Three EXELLENT wrestling matches on this show that you need to see, first and foremost. We did not get the Mercedes Monet debut, but we got arguably something much more surprising, and that’s the return of Adam Cole, who just happened to deliver the greatest promo of his life. Adam Cole went from toiling in somewhat of obscurity before his injury, to being the companies top baby face, and a welcome addition back to an already stacked roster. Thumbs nearly as high as I can go for a free, two-hour, professional wrestling show. 9.5/10.
