Rampage.
Highlights.
HOOK Said Something.
I know it's weird that a piece of dialogue is the only highlight of this episode but considering that Hook hasn't uttered a single word and his intimidation factor, made this scene pretty memorable.
Some Other Things That Happened.
Tomohiro Ishi lost to Adam Cole In The Owen Hart Foundation Tournament - Not gonna lie, seeing two performers from two different brands while Orange Cassidy and Rocky Romero were roaming around ringside felt like I was watching gameplay of WWE 2k because of how random this entire thing was.
Jade Cargill retained the TBS championship against Maria Shafir - that one-legged pin from Cargill into a leg bar from Shafir was *chef's kiss*.
Lance Archer DESTROYED Serpentico - Somebody check on Luther because his friend is getting destroyed and I'm not sure if he feels good about that.
Eddie Kingston defeated Daniel Garcia - Garcia's chest is looking as red as Eva Marie's hair which has to be the weirdest comparison I've ever made.
Dynamite.
Highlights.
Dax Harwood vs Cash Wheeler. Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.
I've never had the thought of splitting them up at least for one match and man, that "light bulb" turned out to be one hell of an idea. This was, by far, the best match from the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.
Kinda reminded me of when they split up Johnny Gargano and Tomasso Ciampa just for the cruiserweight classic.
After a quick sequence of near falls pin, Dax got him with an inside cradle to advance into the tournament.
Hikaru vs Serena Deeb In A Street Fight.
Unfortunately, the crowd was kinda cooled off during this entire bout but I damn sure wasn't because this encounter ruled harder than Mansa Musa.
Deeb has been built into a solid challenger for the AEW world women's championship so the big W for her just made all the sense in the world.
Some Other Things That Happened.
CM Punk was like, "I like you fans but also, that AEW title is mine" - Eh.
Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley and Wheeler Yuta defeated QT Marshall, Aaron Solo and Nick Coromoto - Yuta being part of the Blackpool Combat Club is a nice addition.
Wardlow defeated Lance Archer - Aka two of the best theme songs in AEW today but unfortunately, we don't get to hear one of them because of that POS, MJF.
Eddie Kingston really doesn't like Chris Jericho - Yea, no f**king sh*t, Omar.
Rey Felix is back, boys - Happy to see the man.
Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, Bobby Fish and the Young Bucks defeated Brock Anderson, Lee Johnson, Dante Martin and Varsity Blonds - I'm smelling a turn from Adam Cole to The Young Bucks at some point.
Scorpio Sky took back the TNT championship against Sammy Guevara in a ladder match - Aka the Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair of the midcard division but the difference is that their matches were actually good.
