Rampage.
Highlights.
Bryan Danielson vs Matt Jackson.
Bryan Danielson. A name I should get used to saying since I've been calling the guy Daniel Bryan my entire wrestling fandom (yes, I was a semen until the year 2000 hit).
And no surprise, a match that involved Bryan Danielson and one half of the Young Bucks is actually, you know, GOOD!
Danielson won the encounter with a submission move I can't name because I'm a fake wrestling fan.
The Jurassic Express, as well as Christian Cage, showed up and a brawl between them and The Elite ensued.
Some Other Things That Happened.
Jade Cargill defeated Nyla Rose And Thunder Rosa - An exciting match on paper but the execution was fine at best in my opinion.
Orange Cassidy defeated Jack Evans In An Hair vs Hair Match - Tips for Jack Evans' new shaved head from a bald-headed person like myself. 1, always wear a beanie in winter times. 2, watch out for the a**holes that try to slap your head. And 3, just embrace the shaved head dude. Having hair is literally overrated, my friend.
Dynamite.
Highlights.
HANGMAN PAGE IS BACK!
And won the casino ladder match and became number one contender for the AEW world championship.
The excitement and the so-called "momentum" is still there for the cowboy despite the amount of time he's been off TV which is quite rare and fascinating at the same time.
The reason being is that even a few months being off TV, could derail a character's build significantly depending on certain instances.
All I'm saying is, LET'S GOOOOOOOOO!
The Elite vs The Jurassic Express, Christian Cage And Bryan Danielson.
I describe this opening contest as a highlight reel.
There were so many noteworthy moments that it'll honestly fill at least 1000 words.
The match reminded me why I love the in-ring aspect of wrestling and that is, it's f**king fun to watch.
The Elite guys prevailed with a knee strike from all 4 guys to Jungle Boy which was a fitting end, if you ask me considering that they're known for their knee strikes and kicks.
Malaki Black Gave My Man, Dante Martin The Black Mist.
Can I just say how I love how Malaki Black ensues the Japanese black mist with a bit of Norse mythology in his ring gear?
It's almost as if the depths of the persona has been explored better than WWE ever could.
I'm glad his talents are furnishing here because his main roster run was a wasted potential.
Some Other Things That Happened.
CM Punk's "I love pro wrestling" speech for the 100th time - I mean, he's interacting with the crowd and they're happy to see him. That's all it matters.
Sammy Guevara retained the TNT Championship against Bobby Fish - Another NXT alum on AEW TV and I'm not gonna lie. It felt weird at first, to get used to the fact that he (and Adam Cole) are on AEW given how NXT aired on the same night as Dynamite.
Sammy Guevara took a beating from Dan Lambert's posse until he was saved by his Inner Circle buddies in Chris Jericho and Jake Hager.
Speaking of things that feel weird, Jake Hager as a babyface.
Also, AEW, why are you making Dan Lambert a thing? That's like turning Yezzy's foam shoes a thing. Like, eww, no.
The TBS Championship Has Been Revealed - You mean the Jade Cargill championship, right? I would prefer an AEW 6 man tag team belt considering how deep their tag team division is. Jurassic Express, Best Friends alongside Orange Cassidy, The Elite guys I could go on and on.
Although AEW's women's division has gotten way better since the company's inception, I just don't think the division needs a secondary championship just yet.
Darby Allin defeated Nick Comoroto - Mind you, that defeat was quick.
Brian Cage wants to destroy Ricky Starks - I don't know how Ricky didn't get his a** kicked by Cage during his time on commentary at Rampage last weekend but unfortunately for Brian, the beating wasn't enough for the big man,
Serena Deeb defeated Hikaru Shida - A decent match. Deeb hits Shida with the glass award plate because why not, right?
