Will Ospreay is pretty damn cool. All he did was show up at the tail end of a wild final segment at the end of AEW Dynamite this week to attack Kenny Omega, and even if you were unfamiliar with his work, you could feel it. And what do you know, he’s in action on AEW Rampage tonight.
So is Rocky Romero, and guess what? We just talked to him not long ago.
These men are here because Forbidden Door is getting ever so much closer, and it’s fun that New Japan’s finest are spicing up AEW programming. Oh, and the other matches on this week’s card don’t look too shabby either, including rising star (and now heel) Konosuke Takeshita.
Let’s see what this hour of pro wrestling has in store.
AEW Rampage results:
- United Empire (Jeff Cobb, Kyle Fletcher and Will Ospreay) def. Chaos (Best Friends and Rocky Romero) by pinfall when Ospreay pins Romero
- Taya Valkyrie def. Trish Adora by pinfall
- The Hardys officially accept the challenge from The Gunns for the next episode of Dynamite, with Matt Hardy calling it “adorable” that the Gunns forgot who the Hardys are and Jeff saying they’d make their foes famous
- Mark Briscoe, Papa Briscoe and Aubrey Edwards def. Jay Lethal, Jeff Jarrett and Karen Jarrett by pinfall
- Valkyrie is feeling good about her latest victory, but less thrilled with TBS Champion Kris Statlander, who seems glad to put her title up against Taya next week
- Don Callis crashes the Mark Henry pre-main event segment and trash talks Kenny Omega and a handful of Mexican wrestling legends; Callis also joins the announcers for the main event and says he’s going to keep Takeshita climbing until it forces Omega to face him
- Konosuke Takeshita def. Bandido by pinfall
