AEW Rampage results 08/18/23: Fight for the Fallen ends with 4-way brawl

The women in the 4-way title match at All In ended AEW Rampage Fight for the Fallen with a huge brawl.

We’re less than two weeks away from what’s shaping up to be a historic AEW All In at London’s Wembley Stadium. And while today’s news hasn’t exactly been great for the company, one thing that can take some of the bad vibes away would be a great hour of Rampage.

This one looks like it could be exactly that, with two of AEW’s best high-fliers going at it, plus a big women’s tag team match and the ROH tag team champs in action as well.

So yes, it’ll be nice to just concentrate on the actual wrestling for a bit, plus the fact that all of AEW’s shows this week benefit the Maui Food Bank. Let’s do it together.

AEW Rampage Fight for the Fallen results:

  • Rey Fenix def. Komander by pinfall with Claudio Castagnoli and Jon Moxley shown watching closely on a backstage monitor
  • Dr. Britt Baker tells Renee Paquette that it would be the best full circle moment to win the women’s world championship at All In
  • Johnny TV congratulates
  • Aussie Open def. Ethan Page and Brother Zay by pinfall to retain the ROH World Tag Team Championship; afterward, they get on the mic to warn Adam Cole and MJF they will show them who’s the best at Wembley
  • A video package hypes up The Righteous, which includes a face longtime AEW fans will know in Stu Grayson
  • The Hardys say that Aussie Open are on their radar and want to try to take the titles from them right before All In
  • Sammy Guevara def. Jon Cruz by pinfall in a brief squash match
  • Nyla Rose cuts a brief promo saying she needs to remind everyone who she is and that she’s been here from the beginning
  •  Hikaru Shida and Skye Blue def. The Outcasts (Toni Storm and Ruby Soho) by pinfall
  • After the main event, The Outcasts beat up the victorious Shida and Blue, but Baker sprints to the ring to even the odds, and the show ends with referees trying to separate the four women who will fight for the title in London

AEW Dynamite results: Stacked Detroit card ends in big betrayal

Two titles were also on the line in the Motor City, but did either one change hands?

Unlike many pro wrestling stables, The Elite and Blackpool Combat Club don’t really have designated leaders. They’re more collections of equals in many ways. But Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley are certainly the frontmen when necessary, and that’s extremely relevant to this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite in Detroit.

See, the beef between the two groups has gotten to the point where something dramatic needs to be done to settle it. And well, Omega and Moxley stepping in against each other in a steel cage fits the bill.

That’s a spectacular main event for free TV by any reckoning, but Little Caesars Arena will also be treated to a pair of title bouts: Orange Cassidy will defend his International Championship against Daniel Garcia, and House of Black will put their World Trios Championship on the line against Bandido and Best Friends under their unique “House Rules.”

There’s more, too, but let’s not waste any more time. Here we go.

AEW Dynamite results from Detroit:

(click on any match with a link for full details)

  • Claudio Castagnoli def. Rey Fenix by pinfall, meaning he and a partner of his choice will get a ROH World Tag Team Championship shot against the Lucha Bros.
  • Renee Paquette welcomes Miro back to Dynamite, but he ignores her question and walks right into Tony Khan’s office
  • MJF compares the AEW Pillars to The Beatles, calling himself Paul
  • A hype video is shown for the Steel Cage match, not that we need it to get any more amped up
  • FTR come out to apologize to Mark Briscoe, but Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal want an answer to their challenge, and Briscoe reveals that the title match is on for Double or Nothing — with Mark himself as special guest referee; Sonjay Dutt spits moonshine in Dax Harwood’s eyes, and in his blind fury, he accidentally piledrives Briscoe
  • Paquette wants to know how Chris Jericho feels about Adam Cole getting the best of him, but The Ocho has lawyered up and gotten a restraining order, but that doesn’t apply to Roderick Strong, who challenges Jericho to a Falls Count Anywhere match … and Jericho accepts only to find that Strong has ensured that the JAS will be banned from the building next week when it goes down
  • Thunder Rosa makes her return to Dynamite, also passing Paquette on her way to talk to Khan

  • Jon Moxley def. Kenny Omega by pinfall in a Steel Cage match after Don Callis turns on Omega and hits him in the head with a screwdriver

AEW Rampage results: Rey Fenix tries to dethrone Powerhouse Hobbs

Get quick AEW Rampage results for March 17, 2023, as Rey Fenix challenges Powerhouse Hobbs for the TNT Championship.

AEW Rampage is usually on at 10 p.m. ET on Friday nights. Sometimes it airs at other times, or occasionally on other days, because TNT is showing sports. This week? We’re staying up late, baby!

That’s because arguably the biggest sporting event that TNT airs is the first few rounds of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. You might also know it as March Madness. Please don’t sue us for using it here, we’re doing it for non-commercial purposes.

In any case, Rampage might be worth waiting for, if you like Rey Fenix. As we do. He’ll try to take the TNT Championship from a man who just won it and isn’t likely to release his hold on it easily, Powerhouse Hobbs.

Taya Valkyrie made some waves when she showed up on Dynamite, and she’ll make her in-ring AEW debut on this show too. Let’s see how she looks and what else is in store now that hoops is finally over … until tomorrow.

AEW Rampage results in 30 seconds:

  • Powerhouse Hobbs def. Rey Fenix by pinfall to retain the AEW TNT Championship, and QT Marshall hits Alex Abrahantes with a Diamond Cutter after the match
  •  A video package promotes the return of Adam Cole to AEW action on March 29
  • Stu Grayson confirms he’s back in AEW and wants Jon Moxley in a one-on-one match next week
  • Taya Valkyrie def. Eva Lawless by pinfall as Jade Cargill and her entourage watch from the ramp and take notes
  • The Firm tries to get Stokely Hathaway ready for his match with Hook … and it isn’t going well
  • Matt Menard and Angelo Parker def. The Bollywood Boyz by pinfall and do a little mocking of The Acclaimed afterward with some scissoring
  • Don Callis continues his professional courtship of Konosuke Takeshita
  • A quick preview is shown of the upcoming Kenny Omega vs. El Hijo del Vikingo match on the March 22 Dynamite
  • The Gunns and Top Flight do some jawing and end up agreeing to a tag team title match for Dynamite, and the champs leave their bags behind
  • Daniel Garcia def. Brody King by pinfall thanks to Chris Jericho hitting King with his bat, Floyd

AEW Dynamite results: House of Black spoils title bids by 2 of Winnipeg’s finest

AEW Dynamite results for March 15 from Winnipeg, with The Elite vs. Jericho Appreciation Society vs. House of Black for the Trios titles.

Winnipeggers, who you got: Chris Jericho or Kenny Omega? There’s no real wrong answer to that question as both are among the greats of pro wrestling, but it’s relevant because both men are front and center for a big match on tonight’s AEW Dynamite from Winnipeg.

And if you believe good things come in threes, then you’ll like this a lot: The Elite vs. Jericho Appreciation Society vs. House of Black for the AEW World Trios Championship. That’s a lot of star power in one title match, and it’s pretty darn cool to see big names going for trios gold. Alas, the House just won these belts and isn’t likely to give them up easily, plus we’re assuming their control over AEW’s lighting extends north of the border as well.

Orange Cassidy was a fighting All-Atlantic Champion, and will no doubt keep that same fighting spirit even though his title is now the International Championship. He’s got a veteran challenger in Jeff Jarrett, so it’s possible his reign with this incarnation of the championship might be a short one.

In contrast, MJF has made it clear he doesn’t expect to lose his beloved Triple B, better known as the AEW World Championship, any time soon. He’s not wrestling in Winnipeg, but he is having his re-bar mitzvah ceremony, so … yeah, there’s that.

Last but not least, no one has been bad enough to take the AEW TNBS Championship from undefeated Jade Cargill. She’s put out an open challenge to any Canadian woman to face her for the title tonight, meaning we could see someone who isn’t an AEW regular and will spice things up.

AEW Dynamite results in 90 seconds:

  • MJF is ready for his re-bar mitzvah, but Jack Perry, Sammy Guevara and Darby Allin all decide to crash it
  • Blackpool Combat Club def. Hangman Adam Page and Dark Order by submission
  • Juice Robinson brags about what he did to Ricky Starks and isn’t scared of any retaliation
  • Jade Cargill def. Nicole Matthews by pinfall in a Canadian Open Challenge for the AEW TNT Championship, then has a showdown with Taya Valkyrie
  • Starks says it’s easy to attack people from behind and mocks Juice for how long it’s been since Bullet Club has been relevant before saying they can fight any time, any place
  • The debut of QTV looks a lot like TMZ and mocks Wardlow with plenty of other wrestling references along the way … and reveals that QT Marshall masterminded the break-in to Wardlow’s car, not that that’s a shocker
  • Orange Cassidy def. Jeff Jarrett by pinfall to retain the AEW International Championship
  • Short promos are aired for all three teams in the Trios Championship match
  • The Acclaimed has a new song
  • The Outcasts brag about what they’ve done to the women’s division and take out Jamie Hayter and Britt Baker, but the arrival of Riho, Skye Blue and Willow Nightingale sends them into retreat
  • Matt Menard and Angelo Parker still claim they love rap music and still are incredulous about The Acclaimed turning down their JAS invitation
  • Rey Fenix is going to accept Powerhouse Hobbs’ open challenge for the TNT Championship
  • House of Black def. The Elite and Jericho Appreciation Society  to retain the AEW World Trios Championship
  • BCC and Dark Order fight their way to the ring, and when Page is alone, The Elite step in too … but the show goes off the air before we see if they’re going to back Page up

Opening Bell: Crown Jewel approaches, All-Atlantic 3-way on Dynamite

Get set for the week in WWE and AEW with Opening Bell: quick previews of Raw, SmackDown, Dynamite and Rampage.

Welcome to the Opening Bell, where we round up what’s been announced for WWE (Raw and SmackDown) and AEW (Dynamite and Rampage) programming for the week we’ve just begun.

WWE Raw preview – Monday, October 31, American Airlines Center, Dallas

Happy Halloween, everyone! As WWE prepares to head overseas for Crown Jewel (and some of its talent is already in Europe for house shows in the meantime), there’s still some business to attend to first. Fans in Dallas should prepare to acknowledge the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns, as he will be on hand. While he’s tried to get the Bloodline on the same page in recent weeks, there are still some cracks in the group’s foundation? Can he get them repaired before he faces Logan Paul?

Brock Lesnar is also being advertised for this week’s show. The Beast Incarnate has a big showdown with Bobby Lashley awaiting him in Saudi Arabia, and while the two men have already traded blows, Lesnar may have a a chance to get in the final word before Saturday.

Here’s what else WWE has in store for Halloween night on Raw:

AEW Dynamite preview – Wednesday, November 2, Chesapeake Employers Insurance Arena, Baltimore

Dynamite returns to Baltimore this week with not one, not two, but three title matches. Orange Cassidy finally won his first AEW singles gold by claiming the All-Atlantic Championship, but he’ll have to work hard to keep it (which isn’t really his style) in a three-way dance with two very different opponents, Luchasaurus and Rey Fenix.

Chris Jericho has vowed to take out anything to do with ROH, including past champions, so he’ll put the ROH World Championship on the line against a mystery former champ. And Jade Cargill will try to fend off a familiar challenger for her TBS Championship in the form of Marina Shafir.

Plus AEW has promoted more for this week’s Dynamite, including:

WWE SmackDown preview – Friday, November 4, Enterprise Center, St. Louis (recorded on October 28)

Yep, this episode of SmackDown was pre-taped last week because talent and crew members need to be in Saudi Arabia for Crown Jewel on Saturday. That means that spoilers for exactly what happens on this show are already out there on the internet.

If you’d rather be surprised by outcomes but still want to know what to expect on SmackDown, keep reading:

[listicle id=15371]

AEW Rampage preview – Friday, November 4, Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City

In a bit of role reversal, it’ll be a live episode of Rampage following a pre-taped SmackDown instead of the other way around. The most notable name on the show might not even be one of the wrestlers, as boxing legend Mike Tyson (who has worked with AEW before) is set to join the announce team.

In terms of matches, all we know for sure is that whoever emerges from the three-way dance on Dynamite with the All-Atlantic Championship can pick a dream opponent for Friday night. If that’s Cassidy, it will be a busy week for Freshly Squeezed, which might not be something he’d prefer. We’ll find out Wednesday night.

AEW All Out 2022 preview: Everything you need to know

Get set for Sunday with our AEW All Out 2022 preview, including predictions for what should and will probably happen in every match.

If bigger is better when it comes to pro wrestling pay-per-views, AEW All Out should be about as good as it gets.

AEW is throwing absolutely everything it has into the upcoming show at the Now Arena in Chicago (or more precisely, in the greater Chicago area), loading up the card in terms of both quantity and, hopefully, quality. Including the Zero Hour pre-show, a total of seven titles are on the line, as well as a future world championship shot in the Casino Ladder match.

Even when fate has thrown a late curveball or two, AEW has pivoted with regard to this show. Case in point: Thunder Rosa was slated to defend her AEW Women’s World Championship against Toni Storm, but got injured during the run-up to this weekend. No worries; now there’s a four-way battle for the interim championship that may be even more intriguing, featuring Storm, Hikaru Shida, Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter.

Topping the card is a world championship rematch between Jon Moxley and CM Punk. The two men met less than two weeks ago and surprised the wrestling world when Moxley squashed Punk, leading some to wonder if he had returned from injury too quickly. But this week’s Dynamite proved that it was simply wrestling being wrestling, with Punk needing a pep talk from a friend to prove he was still on top of his game enough to compete at the highest level.

Tony Khan admitted that it wasn’t the normal way he’d build up a world title match but thought it worked for these circumstances (and was good for Dynamite’s ratings, to boot). That could be said for All Out writ large to a certain extent, but there’s no question there is more pressure on this pay-per-view than normal with AEW’s larger competitor suddenly resurgent and holding its own big show on the same September weekend.

In the end, even if the consensus ends up being that All Out isn’t outstanding, it won’t be for a lack of trying on AEW’s part.

AEW All Out 2022

  • When: Sunday, Sept. 4
  • Where: Now Arena, Hoffman Estates, Ill.
  • Start time: 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT (Zero Hour pre-show starts one hour earlier)
  • How to watch: Via Bleacher Report or traditional PPV providers in the U.S.,  along with select movie theaters; through FITE TV internationally
  • Matches announced: 14 (including three on the Zero Hour pre-show)

Scroll down for previews and predictions for all main card matches; we’ll add one for the trios tournament final and any additional matches that get made after Rampage on Friday night.

AEW Rampage Fyter Fest Week 1 quick results: Lucha Bros beat the odds

Get quick AEW Rampage Fyter Fest Week 1 results for the July 15, 2022 episode from Savannah, Georgia.

Did you know that the next AEW pay-per-view isn’t really an AEW PPV at all?

Yep. We’re only a little more than a week away from Death Before Dishonor, a Ring of Honor pay-per-view with a fantastic name that fits the promotion’s ethos perfectly, even under new management. A handful of matches have already been revealed, including a much anticipated rematch between FTR and The Briscoe Brothers.

This is all relevant because the ROH World Championship is being defended tonight on Rampage. Also on tap is what should be a banger of a main event between the Lucha Bros. and Private Party, giving us fond memories of 2019. Oh, and it’s still Week 1 of Fyter Fest, so there’s that.

Let’s get to it!

AEW Rampage Fyter Fest Week 1 results in 30 seconds:

  • Kings of the Black Throne def. John Silver and Alex Reynolds by pinfall, which was apparently an upset according to the tag team rankings … and Darby Allin and Sting attacked the House of Black after the match
  • Miro wonders if the House of Black was supposed to destroy him or recruit him
  • Jonathan Gresham def. Lee Moriarity by submission to retain his ROH World Championship
  • Gresham insists he’s the best technical wrestler in the world and will outclass “all of your favorites” in AEW, but Claudio Castagnoli comes out to potentially object to that
  • Christopher Daniels delivers a warning to Jay Lethal
  • Kris Statlander and Athena def. The Renegade twins by pinfall in a matter of minutes, and interim Baddie Leila Gray takes a beating until Jade Cargill and Kiera Hogan run down to handle their own business
  • Stokely Hathaway tries to recruit Moriarity, but Matt Sydal has a match lined up for him next week against someone who wrestles with heart: Dante Martin
  • Billy Gunn and the Gunn Club want to explain their recent actions, but The Acclaimed are here to fight, not scissor, and the Ass Boys won’t give the people the match they want to see
  • Lucha Bros. def. Private Party by pinfall despite interference by Rush

AEW Rampage quick results: Last stop before Forbidden Door

Get quick AEW Rampage results for the June 24 episode from Milwaukee, the last stop before Forbidden Door.

Milwaukee isn’t quite Chicago, but it’s sort of close. That’s relevant because it’s gotten very close to Forbidden Door, set to blow into the Windy City this Sunday. Tonight’s episode of AEW Rampage, taped last Wednesday, should put the final finishing touches on the card, maybe even adding a few last matches.

We’ll add the latest results as they happen, making this as close to a live report as possible for a pre-recorded show.

AEW Rampage results in 30 seconds:

  • Andrade El Idolo def. Rey Fenix by pinfall with some help from Rush, and the duo unveils La Facción Ingobernable shirts
  • Eddie Kingston cuts a promo touching briefly on Forbidden Door, but he’s even more psyched for Blood & Guts and can’t wait to taste the blood of Chris Jericho
  • Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee say they’ll get another ‘W’ on Sunday against Yoshinobu Kanemaru and El Desperado, but Lee isn’t quite ready to say they’re back on the same page yet
  • Serena Deeb and Mercedes Martinez def. Sierra and Laynie Luck by submission
  • Tully Blanchard Enterprises is a thing, and includes … Brian Cage? Tully also interrupts Jonathan Gresham, and ends up booking a tag team match, it seems
  • Hook def. The DKC by submission to remain undefeated
  • Billy Gunn informs Max Caster and the Gunn Club that they have a match on the Buy-In against four members of NJPW’s LA Dojo, and the Ass Boys think they’re going to Japan
  • Also added to the Buy-In on Sunday: QT Marshall and Aaron Solo vs. Hirooki Goto and Yoshi-Hashi

AEW Double or Nothing: Everything you need to know

Prepare for AEW Double or Nothing 2022 with the full card, previews and predictions for every match.

Get ready to hear your favorite (or least favorite) gambling analogies or puns plenty of times on Sunday, because AEW Double or Nothing is back in Las Vegas. After a two-year detour to Jacksonville due to the COVID-19 pandemic, AEW’s Memorial Day weekend pay-per-view returns to its spiritual home, this time at the T-Mobile Arena — which also hosts Dynamite and Rampage this week.

Heading up the card is an AEW World Championship match between titleholder Hangman Adam Page and challenger CM Punk. But there are plenty of other championships at stake, as Thunder Rosa, Jade Cargill, and Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus will all put their titles on the line as well. There are even rumors that more titles will make their debuts, because the winners of the Owen Hart Foundation tournaments will also be crowned, and could receive some gold of their own.

We’ll update this article with those two finals once they’re decided as well as the Wardlow vs. MJF match that is all but assured to be finalized. Until then, read on for everything you need to know to prepare yourself for AEW Double or Nothing.

AEW Double or Nothing 2022

  • When: Sunday, May 29
  • Where: T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas
  • Start time: 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT (the Buy-In pre-show begins one hour earlier at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT)
  • Matches announced: 10

Opening Bell: Steel cage match on Raw, jokers revealed on Dynamite

Get ready for the week in WWE and AEW with previews for Raw, SmackDown, Dynamite and Rampage.

Welcome to the Opening Bell, where we round up what’s been announced for WWE (Raw and SmackDown) and AEW (Dynamite and Rampage) programming for the week ahead.

WWE Raw preview – Norfolk Scope Arena, Norfolk, Va. (live)

With Bobby Lashley and Omos tied at one win apiece in their feud, it’s time for the two powerhouses to settle things inside a steel cage.

If Lashley loses, he can’t complain since it was his idea to lay out this particular challenge last Monday. The idea, of course, is that MVP can’t interfere, something that directly contributed to Omos’ win at WrestleMania Backlash. But this particular storyline feels like one that might continue into Hell in a Cell, so don’t be shocked if there’s no definitive winner Monday night even though the stipulation suggests there should be.

AEW Dynamite preview – Fertitta Center, Houston (live)

AEW is billing this week’s Dynamite as “Wild Card Wednesday,” which fits their gambling-related theming for the upcoming Double or Nothing PPV, but is also a reference to the jokers being revealed for both Owen Hart Foundation tournaments. Whoever the mystery wrestlers are, they’ll have their hands full in quarterfinal matchups with Samoa Joe and Dr. Britt Baker.

[lawrence-related id=862]

Also on tap for this week’s Dynamite:

AEW Rampage preview – Fertitta Center, Houston (taped)

The most interesting question for Rampage each week at this point is when it will air on TNT thanks to NBA and NH playoff games. The answer for this Friday, May 20 is 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT.

As for the card, the one match we know for sure is going down is an Owen Hart Foundation women’s quarterfinal between Red Velvet and Kris Statlander. Statlander is taking the place of Velvet’s originally announced opponent, Hikaru Shida.

WWE SmackDown preview – Van Andel Arena, Grand Rapids, Mich. (live)

This is it, finally. The tag team titles have been teased for a unification match since prior to WrestleMania Backlash, with The Usos trying to fulfill a directive from Roman Reigns to obtain both sets of titles and RK-Bro understandably figuring it would be cool to grab them for themselves.

This Friday, the two teams will settle things once and for all to decide which tag team reigns supreme. Probably. If Reigns doesn’t interfere, and the Street Profits, who have been on the periphery of this story throughout, don’t decide to do something. Just saying, Hell in a Cell isn’t that far away …
