Tornado kick by Andretti but Fletcher flies in with another single leg lariat. One more to the back of the head. Hammerlock lifting tombstone by Fletcher and this one is over.

Winner: Kyle Fletcher

Rating: ***. Andretti is growing on me for sure, but this is all building to Fletcher and Orange Cassidy for the International Championship. Good win for Fletcher here and Aussie Open can do no wrong in 2023.

Tony Schiavone is here with The Hardy’s and Isiah Kassidy. Matt is happy that Jeff is back and Jeff says the Hardy’s are going to be tag champs in 2023.

The Gunn Club has arrived. The Gunn’s challenge the Hardy’s in a trios match, but Matt says if and only if when the Hardy’s win, they will assume Ethan Page’s contract. Jeff says we have to get past the contract stuff, Matt agrees. The Gunn’s accept.

Drillclaw by Cage but Silver breaks it up with an enziguiri. Swerve kick to Silver after interference from Prince Nana. Discus lariat to Reynolds and a JML Driver and Drill Claw in stereo finish this one.

Winners: Mogul Embassy

Rating: ***. Fine tag team match here and while I don’t love the crossovers between ROH and AEW, it seems they finally have a direction for The Embassy and Swerve.

The rest of the Mogul Embassy attack Evil Uno with a double chokeslam. Keith Lee and Dustin Rhodes are here to make the save!

Final Thoughts: Average episode of Rampage here and I’m hoping once we get back to a consistent timeslot, the shows will be a little stronger. Nothing offensive here but nothing felt super important. Nice to see Kyle Fletcher getting a big win, and some continued momentum from the Outcasts and Mogul Embassy. 6/10.
