Live from the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York! Excalibur, Nigel McGuinness, and Taz are here in the heart of Long Island, so let’s bring out the hometown boy.
Match #1. Hechicero vs. MJF
MJF out to a “he’s our scumbag” chant and here we go. Backflip by MJF and an eye poke. MJF sends Hechichero outside and bounces him off every guard rail he can find, as he now enjoys playing to the crowd. Running Broski Boot to Hechichero sends him into the front row. MJF plays to the crowd yet again on the apron, but Hechicero delivers an arm breaker over the top rope. Hechicero now wraps up MJF in a rear naked choke over the top rope before planting him with the Mad Scientist Bomb for a two count. Both men trade piledriver attempts but Hechichero settles for a huge running knee in the corner before doing the Fargo Strut, thus infuriating the crowd, and flipping everyone off. Hechichero runs through several submissions in a row, finishing the sequence with a double armbar using his legs, similiar to how Zack Sabre Jr. submitted Tanahashi at the ROH MSG show. MJF somehow makes it to the ropes. Mounted punches by MJF in the corner before biting the face of the masked man. Long Island Sunrise by MJF off the top! Sheer drop brainbuster by MJF! One, two, three!

Rating: ****1/2. Yeah, I loved every part of this. Scary moment in the beginning of this one but man oh man what an unbelievable battle. Shingo looked like a million bucks and Danielson did exactly what Bryan Danielson does. Banger. After banger. After banger. Give me more.

After the match, Mariah May hits the ring and looks conflicted. Storm picks up Mina and Mina shoves her away, before extending the arm. Both women shake hands and then… hug! Crowd loves it. And we get a triple kiss.

Very technical start as both guys trade a million holds early. Victory roll by ZSJ is reversed by Cassidy, back and forth, but ZSJ rolls through and twists the neck of Cassidy with his legs.

Orange Punch by Cassidy but the hand maybe broken! Both guys trade Gedo Clutches back and forth as Cassidy gets the closest with a long two as he’s got his hands in his pockets. European uppercuts by ZSJ now and Cassidy looks for the Mousetrap and gets it, but ZSJ counters, shifts his weight, grabs a far armbar, traps the near arm, AND grapevines the legs and Cassidy has to tap!
Winner: Zack Sabre Jr.
Rating: ***1/2. Your milage will vary on a match like this, but it’s right in my wheelhouse and I enjoyed it. ZSJ is just such a great grappler that he’s able to get the crowd to respond to submissions like they just saw a guy go through a flaming pane of glass. Cassidy’s had almost everything in his life taken away from him, so I assume it’s leading to something.
After the match, ZSJ gives Cassidy his sunglasses back.

Big boot by Bill to Shibata as Jericho comes in. Chops by Jericho but Shibata isn’t phased and Shibata delivers some hard chops in return.

Shibata and Joe have Cobb and Bill subdued in chokes of their own. T-Bone by Hook and a Judas Effect! One, two, three!
Winners: Samoa Joe, Hook, & Katsuyori Shibata
Rating: ***. Really enjoyed the addition of Jeff Cobb here, as he brought a lot to this match and between him, Joe, and Bill… it was meat madness. Jericho losing to the Judas Effect clean is a very nice touch.
Match #7. AEW TNT Championship Ladder Match: Jack Perry vs. Konosuke Takeshita vs. Mark Briscoe vs. Dante Martin vs. Lio Rush vs. El Phantasmo
Welp, here we go. Perry retreats to the outside and everyone follows him, so he runs back inside and eats a hard elbow from Takeshita.

Briscoe puts the ladder around his head and Sandman’s everyone before throwing it in Lio’s face. Briscoe lays Takeshita on a table on the outside and puts the ladder on top of him, and then runs and dives off of a chair from the ring through the ladder, Takeshita, and the table on the outside! Takeshita looks hurt, possibly his arm. Perry is in the ring and jabs Lio with the ladder before bridging it from the corner. Perry is at the top of the ladder but ELP runs across the ladder bridge and PURPLE NURPLES JACK PERRY. Dante leaps over Perry and saves ELP from getting the ladder. Perry then dumps the ladder and Martin lands hard, grabbing his knee. Yikes. Briscoe and Takeshita fight on the apron over a ladder… and Briscoe sets up the ladder. On the apron. It BARELY fits. Lio dives through the ladder and takes out Takeshita on the outside. Briscoe comes off the ladder to splash Perry through a table but comes up JUST a bit short and that was an awkward landing.

Winner and NEW TNT Champion: Jack Perry
Rating: ***3/4. What you have come to expect from AEW in terms of this car crash like matches. Lots of spots. Scary ones. Takeshita needs a singles championship soon, but Jack Perry was the right guy to win this one.
Match #8. Title for Title AEW TBS Championship & NJPW Strong Championship: Mercedes Mone (c) vs. Stephanie Vaquer (c)
Vaquer blasts Mone in the face as the referee was giving the instructions and here we go. Double clothesline here but Mone connects with a step-up knee in the corner and an arm drag from the outside. Mone misses a charge in the corner and Vaquer rope walks into an arm drag. Middle rope Meteora by Mone.

Rating: ***1/2. This one surely took a turn, and I’m not sure how many people expected it. There were a few spots that looked shaky, but overall once they hit that second gear down the stretch, it was really good. Both women worked well together and Stephanie Vaquer earned herself a ton of fans tonight.
Mone celebrates with the belt, but…
BRITT BAKER. DOCTOR BRITT BAKER IS BACK. D. M. D. LONG ISLAND GOES NUTS! Both women stare each other down from the ramp.
Match #9. IWGP Heavyweight Championship: Jon Moxley (c) vs. Tetsuya Naito
Jim Ross has joined the commentary table, which is good to see considering his recent healthy problems. Moxley has come out to his Death Rider NJPW music and is wearing an NJPW track jacket. Naito tries to get under Moxley’s skin early and does so successfully. Fight spills to the outside early as Moxley back suplexes Naito on the announcer’s table and delivers some ground and pound. Back inside the ring, Moxley grounds Naito and locks in a STF right by the ropes. Piledriver by Moxley. Two count. Saito suplex by Moxley gets two.

Enziguiri by Naito. King Kong lariat by Moxley! Death Rider! One, two — … that looked like a three count to me and Moxley gets in Red’s shoes face. Moxley then puts a chair in the ring but Red Shoes removes it, to Moxley’s dismay. Moxley looks for a weird angle Death Rider but Naito kind of counters with an awkward Destino. Northern Light’s Bomb by Naito. Destinoooooo! One, two, three!
Winner and NEW IWGP Heavyweight Champion: Tetsuya Naito
Rating: ***3/4. Heck of a hard-hitting match here. Got a little awkward towards the end but Naito winning was a nice change of pace. Moxley is in that weird space where losses don’t really matter and he’s pretty bulletproof.
Match #10. AEW World Heavyweight Championship: Swerve Strickland (c) w/ Prince Nana vs. Will Ospreay
Big fight feel as the crowd is electric right now, which is saying something because this show started six hours ago. Both guys go for the kill shot early but it ends in a stalemate.

Swerve snaps the shoulder of Ospreay and hits ANOTHER HOUSECALL FOR A TWO COUNT. Swerve watches Ospreay stagged to his feet, and he grabs him, as he collapses. Another Housecall. JML Driver and this one is over.
Winner and STILL AEW World Heavyweight Champion: Swerve Strickland
Rating: ****1/2. Excellent main event. The drama, intrigue, physicality, and two of the best. You can’t ask for anything more in a PPV main event. Ospreay will live to fight another day, and Swerve’s reign of dominance continues.
After the match, Swerve momentarily consoles Ospreay. Kyle Fletcher is here with Ospreay and he says he was so, so close as we fade to black.
Final Thoughts: A very solid PPV tonight, and we’ve come to expect that from AEW. While the match quality was a little lower than Double or Nothing, it was still strong, and we got a lot of storylines advancement, too. Go out of you way to see the main event and Dragon vs. Dragon, for sure. The Mariah May, Toni Storm, and Mina Shirakawa stuff is great. Britt Baker returns… whooo. Going to be a strong summer for AEW. 8.75/10.Â
