AEW Rampage results 03/20/24: Julia Hart, Skye Blue prevail in Street Fight

We also saw Best Friends advance in the AEW tag team title tournament in Toronto.

How’s everyone feeling after AEW Dynamite? Ready for another hour of wrestling? Because that’s exactly what we’re getting on a live episode of AEW Rampage on a special night.

In fact the change from one show to another in the T-Dot was basically seamless, since the main event I Quit match ran long. Confetti for Adam Copeland, tears for Christian Cage.

But hey, there’s plenty to look forward to on Rampage as well. We’ll see another team advance in the tag team title tournament, and Katsuyori Shibata is in action. The main event should be a women’s tag team Street Fight, and that works for us.

So yes, bring on the third hour, we say, if only for this week. Let’s get into it.

AEW Rampage results from Toronto:

  • Bullet Club Gold is in Florida, not Toronto, threatening to win the trios titles from The Acclaimed, and Jay White claims he saved Darby Allin’s life by breaking his foot and keeping him from climbing Mount Everest
  • Renee Paquette brings out The Acclaimed, who are definitely upset at Bullet Club Gold and lob plenty of insults at White and The Gunns

  • Konosuke Takeshita def. Rocky Romero by pinfall
  • Skye Blue and Julia Hart def. Kris Statlander and Willow Nightingale by submission in a Street Fight as Hart taps out Statlander; the match included tables, moves on top of the announce table, chairs and a whole mess of thumbtacks

AEW Collision results 03/02/24: Revolution Eve in Huntsville

AEW Collision filled in the final spot on the Revolution card and added a match to the pre-show as well.

We’re so, so close to AEW Revolution now. In fact, we’re so close that AEW Collision isn’t live tonight, having been taped earlier this week in Huntsville, Ala.

It’s a go home show for sure, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing important happening. For one, there’s a three-way match that will fill the final spot in the

AEW Collision results:

  • Buddy Matthews was supposed to wrestle an unknown opponent when he was attacked by Mark Briscoe; a wild brawl ensued that also drew in other members of the House of Black, but Briscoe was able to fight them all off and nearly managed to burn Matthews with the pyro and flame jests before the House retreated

  • Mariah May def. Angelica Risk by pinfall; afterward, “Timeless” Toni Storm blows by May right after the bell and calls for Deonna Purrazzo to join her in the ring, and the two friends turned rivals exchange one last set of threats, then some blows after Storm kisses Purrazzo on the cheek; May tries to help Storm but gets beaten up for her efforts
  • Bang Bang Scissor Gang (Anthony Bowens, Colten Gunn and Max Caster) def. Dark Order (Alex Reynolds, Evil Uno and John Silver) by pinfall

  • Tony Schiavone has an in-ring conversation with Wardlow, who says he finally got someone’s attention, and that he’ll finally get his world championship shot after he beats the other all-stars in the Scramble at Revolution; he ponders who he’ll be facing for the title but is eventually interrupted by Chris Jericho, and their verbal sparring is in turn interrupted by Powerhouse Hobbs, who lays out Jericho and threatens Wardlow
  • Lexy talks to Serena Deeb, who says she’s been putting on clinics week after week; she says anyone watching who thinks they’re the best should step up and prove it against her
  • Private Party def. Christopher Daniels and Matt Sydal by pinfall, thanks in large part to assistance from Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett, and the two groups teased a new alliance after the win
  • A video package hypes the Revolution match between Eddie Kingston and Bryan Danielson, with some additional words from both men

AEW Rampage results 02/23/24: Roderick Strong ruins Jake Hager’s homecoming

A look at the results from the Feb. 23 episode of AEW Rampage.

Pro wrestling fans are in for a whirlwind of in-ring action over 12 hours from Friday night to early Saturday morning, with WWE SmackDown starting at 8 p.m. ET, AEW Rampage at 10 p.m. ET, and Elimination Chamber at 5 a.m. ET. It’s all the matches fans can handle, and the excitement continues with Collision returning to its regular Saturday evening timeslot, as well.

AEW’s first of two weekend shows showcases notable names in a high-flying three-way tag team match, your executive vice presidents in action, and a surprising main event matchup that no one saw coming just 48 hours ago. With that, let’s dive into the action.

  • Bryan Keith, Komander and Penta El Zero Miedo def. Action Andretti and Top Flight (Dante and Darius Martin) and Matt Sydal and Private Party (Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen) by pinfall
  • Saraya tells Renee Paquette she doesn’t care about Ruby Soho, and Harley Cameron tries cooling her down; Saraya says her brother, “Zodiac” Zach Knight is All Elite and introduces him as he walks into the frame
  • The Young Bucks def. Jonny Lyons and Cappuccino Jones by pinfall; Matthew and Nicholas Jackson win with the “Tony Khan Driver,” formerly known as the “Meltzer Driver”
  • Nicholas tells the referee they’ll fine him the next time he calls him “Nick”; Nicholas calls Tony Schiavone into the ring to “clear the air” from last week and they apologize; Matthew gifts Schiavone a $25 Amazon gift card and apologizes that they can’t remove Darby Allin and Sting’s blood stains out of their white suits; Matthew says they’ll pin Sting and retire him at Revolution
  • Tony Schiavone welcomes Sammy Guevara to the ring; Guevara says he has a mix of emotions from wrestling his childhood hero, Jeff Hardy, to Powerhouse Hobbs putting him through a table; Guevara challenges Hobbs, but Don Callis acknowledges Guevara and says he wanted him in the Don Callis Family; However, Callis calls Guevara weak; Hobbs attacks Guevara from behind and they fight in and out of the ring, leaving the latter man laying in the middle of the ring
  • Skye Blue says she deserved to defeat Willow Nightingale last week; Julia Hart says they’ll have their comeuppance against Nightingale, Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway
  • Mariah May def. Anna Jay by pinfall
  • Ruby Soho says her date with Angelo Parker went well; Parker calls it “incredible”; Soho says it’s weird Saraya wants her brother to hook up with her; Soho says Saraya actually needs her and she’s the sad one; Parker and Soho leave for another date
  • Roderick Strong def. Jake Hager by pinfall; Orange Cassidy comes to ringside mid-match to support Hager and takes out Matt Taven and Mike Bennett; Cassidy throws a bucket hat into the ring that Hager puts on, but Bennett and Taven cause a distraction that lets Strong take advantage and win

AEW Dynamite results 01/10/24: Sting thrills Daily’s Place as Young Bucks loom

Will we be seeing Sting and Darby Allin vs. some AEW EVPs at Revolution?

Oh yeah, it feels so good
To be back where we belong
Oh yeah, it feels so good
This is where we started from

Thanks for that, New Edition. Those immortal words are echoing through this writer’s skull as we get ready to take in AEW Dynamite Homecoming from Daily’s Place in Jacksonville.

You might remember this as the pandemic-era home of AEW, the place where everyone buckled down and got through some very difficult times thanks to the Power of Pro Wrestling (don’t try to trademark that, I’ve already filed). It was the place where talent simply worked through it, the spot where The Gunns went from “Who are those lads with Billy on the right-hand side of the ring every week?” to actual weekly TV types.

On a sadder and more serious note, it’s also where the world at large got to know the late Mr. Brodie Lee better, which has gone into the thinking behind some of the matches on tonight’s card, according to Tony Khan. Yes, there are some random-ish eight-person tag matches, but they feature people important to Lee, and that is a cool touch.

Some of the more prominent singles matches may not have that kind of story behind them, yet they still could cook. Ricky Starks vs. Sammy Guevara for the first time ever? Sure. Claudio Castagnoli vs. Hangman Adam Page? Of course!

We’re also on Day 10, give or take, of Mercedes Watch, so there’s that too.

Plenty of reason to tune in. Light the fuse, Daily’s Place!

AEW Dynamite results from Jacksonville:

(please scroll down for full details on any match or segment in bold)

  • Hangman Adam Page def. Claudio Castagnoli by pinfall
  • A short compilation of Brodie Lee highlights from Daily’s Place is shown, along with an explanation of how his two hand-picked proteges are in action tonight
  • Orange Cassidy, Preston Vance, Dustin Rhodes and Adam Copeland def. Brian Cage, Gates of Agony and Lance Archer by pinfall, with Vance pinning Cage after some turmoil between Archer and the Mogul Embassy members during the match
  • Renee Paquette talks to Bullet Club Gold about the Undisputed Kingdom, and The Acclaimed stops by to repeat their suggestion that they form a “Bang Bang Scissor Gang superfaction,” and you can tell Austin Gunn is still on board with the idea
  • Samoa Joe says he has changed the title challenge protocol, but that doesn’t stop Swerve Strickland, Hangman and Hook from all throwing their hats in the ring
  • Paquette is with Toni Storm and Mariah May, and the champ is both dismissive of May and a little disturbed by the arrival of Deonna Purrazzo

  • Sammy Guevara def. Ricky Starks by pinfall
  • Sammy shakes Ricky’s hand after the match, but it’s a ruse for an attack by Big Bill that also draws in Chris Jericho … all while “Judas” blares the whole time
  • Willow Nightingale, Kris Statlander, Anna Jay and Thunder Rosa def. Saraya, Ruby Soho, Skye Blue and Julia Hart by submission as Anna Jay gets Skye Blue to tap out to the Queenslayer
  • Wheeler Yuta fires back at the “disrespect” he’s been shown by Eddie Kingston and makes it clear he’d like to face Kingston for his Continental Crown Championship on Rampage
  • Roderick Strong def. Bryan Keith by pinfall
  • Adam Cole gets on the mic after Strong’s win and goes over the Undisputed Kingdom mission statement again

  • Paquette talks to Purrazzo about Storm, and Deonna gets a Collision challenge from Red Velvet

  • Darby Allin and Sting def. Konosuke Takeshita and Powerhouse Hobbs by pinfall
  • Schiavone gets in the ring to ask Sting who his last opponent will be, but the answer is interrupted by the more clean shaven Young Bucks, who linger on stage with their music playing before leaving

Hangman Adam Page does enough “Cowboy S–t” to beat Claudio Castagnoli

Upset as he has been recently, Hangman takes it right to Claudio as soon as the opening bell sounds. That’s not a bad idea, but you’re not going to just overwhelm the Swiss Superman, and sure enough Castagnoli takes control once the fight gets inside the ring.

Or is he just pissing Hangman off more? Page no sells some shots in the corner and marches forward, and they trade hard shots until Page ends up going for the Giant Swing.

Claudio goes for the Sharpshooter next, but he almost gets rolled up when he transitions to a crossface. Castagnoli fires right back with a Death Valley Driver, and both men are slow to rise.

Page breaks out with a fallaway slam as the fans applaud to egg him on. He kips up and hits a springboard lariat, then follows with a plancha and some right hands on the floor.

Once they’re both back inside the ropes, Page is caught on a corner charge and slammed hard over the top rope and onto the ramp. That couldn’t have felt good.

After some side by side ads, Page ends up right back on the ramp, and not by choice. Claudio punches him up to the stage, but the Cowboy sends him back toward the ring and then into it with a running lariat.

Castagnoli sees the Buckshot coming, however, and gets a near fall with a popup uppercut. The battle goes back to the floor, where Claudio catches Hangman and smacks him into a wall (yes) before getting countered with a DDT.

Page hits a moonsault off the wall, then counters a Tombstone with one of his own back in the ring. Castagnoli kicks out, though, and the match rolls on.

After sending Page face first into the top turnbuckle, Castagnoli hits a running uppercut and more of them in the corner. A big short arm lariat leads to a cover, but Page isn’t ready to be pinned yet.

Hangman pops up to deliver the DeadEye, but is somewhat slow to cover and only gets two again. They both end up ascending or trying to, and Claudio’s Ricola Bomb is countered with a hurricanrana. Two doses of the Buckshot are enough to keep Castagnoli down for the three count.


Samoa Joe has more than one person pursuing his title

Were some people tiring of MJF? It sure sounds like it as the current champion is getting “thank you Joe” chants. The champ says he’s making some changes to the title challenge protocol, saying people won’t have to whine in the ring or on social media.

Instead, you bring your record and reputation to the “championship committee,” and if they deem you worthy, you get an express pass for Joe to “stomp your ass out.” Wait, that doesn’t sound like a prize!

For anyone who wants a piece of him, the champion will be waiting. Of course, all that is unlikely to go unanswered, and sure enough, Swerve Strickland and the Mogul Embassy pop out on stage. Strickland boasts that he took Hangman’s spot, and just like that was, it isn’t personal between Swerve and Joe. He just wants the championship and he’s going to take it.

After winning the title, Swerve says he’ll be happy to make things personal between them. Of course, he already has a personal issue that somehow still isn’t done, and that’s with Hangman, who joins them. He also vows to make the AEW World Championship his in 2024, and Joe simply laughs as Page and Strickland stare holes in each other.

Page turns to Joe and says he hasn’t forgotten what Joe had done to him, and he’s going to take the title from him for it. After everyone leaves, Joe simply holds the belt aloft.

He’s not done, though. Hook’s music hits and the FTW Champion comes to the ring to have his own staredown with Joe. “One week,” Hook says before leaving.


Sammy Guevara rocks Ricky Starks for a big win

These two have never been in the ring for a singles match before, and they start off a little cautiously as a result. Guevara is the first to step on the gas, forcing Starks from the ring with a dropkick and dropping a moonsault on him from the top rope.

The battle goes to the apron, where neither man can impose his will into Sammy starts landing some nasty chops. Starks shrugs those off and slams Guevara hard onto the apron as side-by-side commercials slide in.

(They wasted Ricky’s awesome rope walk spot during the ads, darn them.)

Guevara seems to have a rally going now and gets a near fall right after the full broadcast is back. Sammy wants to climb but Ricky doesn’t want to let him, and Starks sets off on a flurry of offense that leads to his own near fall.

Starks’ great counter wrestling allows him to score another two count, but Guevara manages to nail him with a couple of superkicks and pulls off an inside cradle to get the dub.


Sting has one more crazy spot in him as he and Darby Allin top the Don Callis Family

Ric Flair and Don Callis are ringside with their respective teams, and this is going to be hard to recap since it immediately breaks down with fighting into the crowd in two different directions. No DQs, falls count anywhere for this one.

Takeshita is hitting rolling Germans on the floor on poor Darby as we get picture-in-picture action. Sting is faring even worse … until Allin gets tossed by both his foes and does like three revolutions before hitting the mat.

Sting comes back into the ring on fire but gets smacked down quickly by Takeshita. Flair decides to step in and chop Hobbs, which does nothing, but he thumbs Powerhouse in the eye and buys Sting enough time to recover.

All four men brawl up to the stage, and it feels like something nuts is going to happen. Sure enough it does, with Allin hitting a Coffin Drop on Takeshita from high up in the stands.

Hobbs hoists Sting and carries him down a walkway in front of the stands, but the Icon turns the tables with a Scorpion Death Drop down through some tables. Sting rolls over and throws an arm on top of Hobbs, and he stays undefeated as the ref counts to three.

AEW Dynamite preview 01/10/24: Homecoming at Daily’s Place

AEW Dynamite Homecoming will also feature Hangman Adam Page vs. Claudio Castagnoli and a stacked eight-woman tag match.

[anyclip-media thumbnail=”https://cdn5.anyclip.com/hks_6YwBYdwULzK88Cta/1704720414167_248x140_thumbnail.jpg” playlistId=”undefined” content=”PHNjcmlwdCBzcmM9Imh0dHBzOi8vcGxheWVyLnBvcHRvay5jb20vYW55Y2xpcC13aWRnZXQvbHJlLXdpZGdldC9wcm9kL3YxL3NyYy9scmUuanMiIGRhdGEtYXI9IjE2OjkiIGRhdGEtcGxpZD0ibmJ2eGd4endsZjN1ZXdsZW81a3V5NnNsaGE0ZWc1ZGIiIHB1Ym5hbWU9IjE5OTgiIHdpZGdldG5hbWU9IjAwMTZNMDAwMDJVMEIxa1FBRl9NODMzMCI+Cjwvc2NyaXB0Pg==”][/anyclip-media]

The Daily’s Place era of AEW was a time. With the COVID-19 pandemic preventing the company from touring, it ended up creating a home for itself under difficult circumstances in Jacksonville. While tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite will look to the future and be part of an extended goodbye to an Icon, it will also undoubtedly bring back some memories from several years ago with its Homecoming theme.

Sting is in tag team action on his farewell tour

Even though chronologically it makes perfect sense for Sting to hang up the boots and paint, it’s still a little surreal knowing that every time he performs somewhere is the last time fans in that market will see him wrestle. That’s true again tonight in Jacksonville.

As always, he’ll have Darby Allin by his side. They’re undefeated as a tag team, but maintaining that status against The Don Callis Family’s Konosuke Takeshita and Powerhouse Hobbs feels like a tough task. And that’s as it should be.

Has Hangman Adam Page bitten off more than he can chew?

It hasn’t been a good couple of months for Hangman Adam Page, who is understandably irritable after coming out on the short end of his feud with Swerve Strickland. The problem with looking for a fight, whatever the cause, is that you may find a very difficult one, which is what Hangman got tonight in Claudio Castagnoli.

Life hasn’t been all dubs for the Swiss Superman either, so this should be an interesting barometer of where AEW feels each man might be headed next. And oh yeah — it should be a pretty sweet match on its own merits, too.

Most of the current players in the women’s division will be in one match

No “Timeless” Toni Storm in this one, but just about everyone else with a storyline going on in the women’s division is in an eight-person tag team match tonight. Kris Statlander and Willow Nightingale are having their friendship tested, but so far it’s proven stronger than Stoke.

On top of that, all eyes will be on Thunder Rosa. La Mera Mera only recently returned from a lengthy injury absence and hasn’t had all that much ring time just yet. Will she look like her old, championship-level self? Could she get in the mix with Julia Hart and the TBS Championship, perhaps? We’ll be watching anxiously to find out.


Also on the docket for tonight’s Homecoming episode from Daily’s Place:

  • Ricky Starks takes on Sammy Guevara in their first ever singles meeting
  • Lance Archer, Gates of Agony and Brian Cage team to face Orange Cassidy, Dustin Rhodes, Adam Copeland and Preston Vance
  • AEW World Champion Samoa Joe will be in the house

If this is a Homecoming you’ll want to attend, be sure to tune in tonight at 8 p.m. ET on TBS. We’ll also be serving up live results and other points of interest from the show here at Wrestling Junkie.

AEW Worlds End 2023 live report: The Devil in the details

Get the vibe of AEW Worlds End from amidst the live crowd from Wrestling Junkie’s Rob Wolkenbrod.

LONG ISLAND, NY — Entering Worlds End, it felt like a pay-per-view AEW needed to hit out of the park. The second half of the company’s 2023 left something to be desired, with lagging ticket sales, unfortunate injuries to Adam Cole, Kenny Omega and MJF, and backstage controversies remaining constant.

Filling the Nassau Coliseum wasn’t an issue Saturday night; AEW fans loaded the arena waiting on their favorite “scumbag,” the culmination of the Continental Classic and the next step of Christian Cage and Adam Copeland’s feud. The rest of the card had little fanfare since AEW glued it together within the last week, and it showed from the start of the main show until the main event matches.

At the same time, Worlds End was always billed as a three-match show featuring the three longest-running storylines in AEW. Along with the impending reveal of the Devil, the final 90 minutes of the five-hour show held all the eggs in the basket.

But even though fans were awaiting the identity of the person under the mask, questions loomed about MJF’s injury status. Was it his final night wrestling for a while? Did AEW extend his contract into 2024 and beyond? Tony Khan said he can’t comment on the AEW future of the Long Island native after the show, so take that as you will.

AEW answered questions beyond that during Worlds End, though, creating an interesting night of pro wrestling to close 2023.

AEW Worlds End results from Long Island:

  • Willow Nightingale def. Kris Statlander by pinfall in a solid match with a bumpy finish at the end.
  • A vignette teases Serena Deeb’s return to the ring.
  • Killswitch wins the battle royal to become the No. 1 contender to the TNT Championship. Not sure anyone expected Trent Beretta to be the runner-up over Danhausen, and it made the ending anticlimactic.
  • Hook def. Wheeler Yuta by submission to retain the FTW Championship.
  • Bryan Danielson, Claudio Castagnoli, Daniel Garcia and Mark Briscoe def. Jay White, Jay Lethal, Brody King and Rush by pinfall. Danielson and White stepping into the ring together created one of the best pops of the night, and King was very over with the crowd.
  • Miro def. Andrade El Idolo by submission in a relatively slow-paced match. During the post-show press conference, Tony Khan confirmed that El Idolo’s contract with AEW will expire at the end of the year, making that the former WWE United States Champion’s final match with the company.
  • Toni Storm def. Riho by pinfall to retain the AEW Women’s Championship. Storm’s impeccable character presentation highlighted a fine match.
  • Swerve Strickland def. Dustin Rhodes by pinfall. The atmosphere changed on a dime when “Big Pressure” played, waking a mild crowd from the last two matches. Rhodes also replaced Keith Lee, who was replaced an hour before the show due to injury.
  • Sting, Darby Allin, Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara def. Konosuke Takeshita, Will Hobbs, Ricky Starks and Big Bill by pinfall. Boos toward Chris Jericho dominated this match, with various chants his way that made it to air and some explicit ones the live broadcast might not have registered.
  • Julia Hart def. Abadon by pinfall to retain the TBS Championship. A “This is spooky chant” rang out early, but the match work kept the crowd quiet.
  • Adam Copeland def. Christian Cage to win the TNT Championship. This show needed a hard-hitting, storytelling-focused match, and the crowd was lively for it. Copeland’s cross body in the crowd received a wild reaction, but the “We want fire” chants were arguably the popular aspect of the night.
  • Christian Cage def. Adam Copeland to win the TNT Championship. The live crowd had mixed feelings about Cage winning back the title within minutes after Killswitch gave up the contract. It surprised many, but it also served as a way to keep the feud going and shift the momentum back in the Patriarch’s favor.
  • Eddie Kingston def. Jon Moxley by pinfall to win the Continental Classic. This was the grueling, hard-hitting match everyone expected with stiff strikes and some tough spots, including the suicide dive that seemed to hurt Kingston more than Moxley.
  • Samoa Joe def. MJF by submission to win the AEW World Championship, ending the 27-year-old’s record title reign, in a match where the now former champion was clearly hurting and even had an audible scream of pain. After the match, Adam Cole revealed himself as the Devil, with Wardlow, Roderick Strong, Matt Taven and Mike Bennett as his goons.

AEW Worlds End live notes from Long Island:

  • Allowing Sting to receive an ovation in one of his last matches was a nice touch and a needed atmosphere changer after a forgettable eight-man tag match.
  • The reveal of Cole as the Devil was deemed anticlimactic by some of the crowd. It failed to elicit a huge reaction, perhaps because people had suspected Cole to be the man behind the mask all along. However, at times, the proper call doesn’t need to send shockwaves.
  • Throughout the night, the crowd felt like a sleeping giant. They wanted something to cheer for, and they wanted to react loudly. It arguably took until Copeland vs. Cage for that to happen, though, which was too long.

AEW Worlds End results: All the winners from Long Island

Get live AEW Worlds End results for the year-ending pay-per-view from Long Island.

It’s time to see how AEW will look going into 2024, with plenty of big matches in store for AEW Worlds End. And in the hometown of AEW World Champion MJF, will he even leave Long Island with the title?

It’s a legitimate question given the status of his health and contract. There’s every chance that Samoa Joe could walk out of Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum as the top champion in AEW, which is something not many probably would have predicted at the start of the year.

Many fans will also be watching to see if the Devil gets involved in the main event, with insiders suggesting their identity will be revealed before the end of the night. That only figures to make MJF’s chances of retaining his beloved Triple B even shorter.

Another highlight should be the Continental Classic final between Eddie Kingston and Jon Moxley, two men who know each other extremely well even in an industry in which saying that is something of a trope. Can the Mad King throw off his bad luck in the biggest spots, not to mention his winless record against Mox, and finally come through?

We’ll also see both women’s championships defended (finally), another grudge match between Adam Copeland and Christian Cage, and much more from Long Island. We’re raring to go, so hopefully you are too.

  • Samoa Joe def. MJF by submission to become the new AEW World Champion, despite some attempted assistance by Adam Cole

AEW Rampage results 12/15/23: Trios, tag teams in action on Winter is Coming

The Von Erichs were along the highlights of this week’s AEW Rampage.

Man, it’s been a bummer of a day for AEW with the news that Kenny Omega will be out indefinitely. Somewhere, Tony Khan is cursing his luck, or the fact that he appears to have jinxed himself after talking earlier in the year about how the company’s injury luck was better in 2023.

You know what might cheer him, and also us, up? Some AEW Rampage, that’s what. With the show taped in Texas, it’s only right that some Von Erichs are part of it, teaming with Orange Cassidy. There are also several tag team matches on tap, as well as Anna Jay in singles action.

Yeah, this should help us feel better. On to the results and such.

AEW Rampage results:

  • Orange Cassidy and The Von Erichs def. Angelo Parker, Matt Menard and Jake Hager by pinfall, and Kevin Von Erich and Danhausen help prevent a post-match beating, with Kevin giving Hager a lengthy Iron Claw; Cassidy puts his sunglasses on the eldest Von Erich during their celebration
  • Mark Briscoe says “fighting’s what I do, dammit” when asked what he still has to fight for in the Continental Classic and says this is like his rookie season as a singles wrestler; he and Jay Lethal say they’ll battle each other for honor next week and shake hands
  • The Don Callis Family (Kyle Fletcher and Powerhouse Hobbs) def. Hunter Grey and Paul Titan by pinfall in a squash match; afterward, Callis gets some mic time and threatens The Golden Jets, saying that under The Don Callis Rules, any two members of the Family can take on Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega at any time
  • Ruby Soho reflects on taking another loss while being pulled in so many directions, and she doesn’t take kindly to Saraya trying to give her some tough love
  • Anna Jay def. Red Velvet by submission, due in part to, or perhaps in spite of, a distraction by Menard
  • A replay of the Devil’s latest attack from Dynamite is shown, this time targeting Hangman Adam Page
  • Top Flight and Action Andretti def. El Hijo del Vikingo, Komander and Penta El Zero Miedo by pinfall

AEW Rampage results 12/8/23: Bryan Danielson teaches Daniel Garcia another lesson

It also appeared Julia Hart welcomed a challenge from Abadon for her TBS Championship on AEW Rampage from Montreal.

It’s time for some magic. And by that we mean Daddy Magic Matt Menard, who is on guest commentary tonight on AEW Rampage.

Only fitting since Menard is from Montreal, sight of tonight’s show (which was taped on Wednesday). There’s some good stuff in store, including a Continental Classic match between Bryan Danielson and Daniel Garcia. There’s almost no way that’s not good stuff.

Let’s find out, shall we?

AEW Rampage results:

  • Orange Cassidy def. Angelico by pinfall to retain the AEW International Championship
  • Abadon def. Trish Adora by pinfall; afterward, the lights go out and back on to reveal Julia Hart, who lays the TBS Championship in front of Abadon, who picks it up but finds it gone (along with Hart) once the lights go off and on again
  • The Mercedes Martinez and Willow Nightingale promo is shown again
  • The Don Callis Family (Powerhouse Hobbs and Konosuke Takeshita) def. Christopher Daniels and Matt Sydal by pinfall, with Callis offering his “insight” as the fourth man at the commentary table
  • Renee Paquette talks to Top Flight and Action Andretti, who say they’ll accept the trios challenge sent their way by Penta El Zero Miedo last week
  • Bryan Danielson def. Daniel Garcia by submission in a Continental Classic Blue League match, sending Danielson to six points and mathematically eliminating Garcia from contention to advance from the group stage; notably, Garcia didn’t do his dance and reverted to trunks and wearing a towel around his neck on the way to the ring

AEW Rampage results 12/1/23: Danhausen back in action, Statlander and Blue find common ground

Danhausen back in the ring and some unexpected teamwork were highlights of this week’s AEW Rampage.

It’s Friday night, and you know what that means!

Well, most Fridays, anyway. AEW Rampage shifted to Saturday last week for reasons, but is back in its familiar night and time this week. What are we looking at? Men’s and women’s trios matches, for starters, including what should be an incredible lucha-flavored showdown.

Let’s cross body our way into the action.

AEW Rampage results:

  • Orange Cassidy, Hook, Danhausen and Trent Beretta def. The Dark Order (Evil Uno and Alex Reynolds), Matt Menard and Angelo Parker by pinfall, with Wheeler Yuta joining the announcers midway through the match and not too pleased with the outcome
  • Renee Paquette joins Saraya, Ruby Soho and Anna Jay, and Anna tells Angelo Parker he can’t go to the ring with her, plus Saraya still doesn’t want him seeing Ruby

  • Sting and Ric Flair join Tony Schiavone in the ring to walk down memory lane

  • Paquette talks to Kris Statlander, Hikaru Shida and Skye Blue, with Shida forced to play peacekeeper between the other two and cheerleader as well ahead of tonight’s trios match
  • The Don Callis Family (Powerhouse Hobbs, Konosuke Takeshita and Kyle Fletcher) def. local talent in a quick squash match, and Callis taunts the Golden Jets afterward
  • Prince Nana and Brian Cage talk about the Mogul Embassy being on a roll, and Nana tells The WorkHorsemen they have a chance to impress them tonight and possibly earn spots on the team
  • Kris Statlander, Hikaru Shida and Skye Blue def. The Outcasts (Saraya and Ruby Soho) and Anna Jay by pinfall, with Blue getting the pin after some surprisingly good teamwork with Statlander
  • A replay is shown of this week’s Continental Classic matches from Dynamite, and tomorrow night’s tourney matches on Collision are promoted
  • Penta El Zero Miedo, El Hijo del Vikingo and Komander def. The WorkHorsemen (JD Drake and Anthony Henry) and Brian Cage by pinfall, due in large part to Cage walking out on his teammates after accidentally being hit by a Henry kick
