[MUSIC]
>> This is Rampage.
[MUSIC]
>> It's Friday.
You know what that means, A.W. Rampage is coming your way on TNT from Nashville,
Tennessee.
I'm Excalibur joined by Tony Schiavone, and
we are headed down to the ring to kick off our opening contest.
A high flying affair between two great luchadors, Rey Fenix and Commander.
>> Maybe a matchup with Trish and we'll see.
I know both guys have great cardiovascular training, Excalibur, and
great conditioning.
Let's see who can run the other one ragged.
>> And this has gotta be something of a dream match for
a commander who grew up inspired, so heavily inspired by Rey Fenix and
Penta El Serro Mierda Lucha Brothers.
Really, Commander motivated him to become a professional wrestler,
to become a luchador.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> So
obviously the experience lies with Rey Fenix, as you just heard.
And let's see if that helps him.
It only has to help him in this matchup.
>> And now the crucifix into a pinning predicament.
Fenix pounce out, but he maintains control of the legs of Commander.
But Commander back again into a pinning predicament.
As Fenix tilts, shifts momentum.
And now, a sunset flip attempt.
Two, and Commander reverses, grabbing onto the legs.
Bails out, and a bit of a stalemate here in the early goings.
Inside cradle attempted.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Instead,
Fenix using his size and strength advantage.
With the brakes on, but Commander using his quickness.
Slips free, slips through, turns the corner.
A cover again.
And Commander here with the early lead on points, so to speak, Tony.
>> Yeah, great opening sequence by both men.
Great counter wrestling by both men.
I'm enjoying this, and yet, for someone to hit the top rope, but
you know it's gonna happen eventually, or someone to take flight.
>> Yeah, Tony, what about the news for Dynamite this past Wednesday night?
Stadium stampede returning at All in London,
Wembley Stadium, Eddie Kingston, the Lucha Brothers, Orange Cassidy,
Best Friends versus the Blackpool Combat Club, and
whoever they can find in Eddie Kingston's words.
>> Well, I'm telling you, we've seen it, every stadium stampede, but
we've seen a stadium stampede with an empty stadium, right?
>> Yeah, now for the first time ever, 80,000 plus will be in the house at
Wembley Stadium as Ray Fenix looking for the hook kick, the hip toss.
Sends Commander over the top.
>> And of course, the stadium stampede match has been the one that has been so
invented, so created by the wrestlers.
Let's see what they come up with on a week from Sunday,
the 27th of August at Wembley Stadium.
>> Commander swinging wildly, and Fenix drops him on the ropes with that kick to
the face.
Fans still a lot of action to come tonight on Rampage.
Ozzy Oben will defend the Ring of Honor.
World Tag Team Champions against Ethan Page and
his brother, Zay, as Fenix.
Commander lured him in, and now Commander diving for
a Conorada, takes down Ray Fenix.
Sami Kavar will be in action on tonight, our main event,
Sarray and Tony Storm versus Sky Blue and
Hikari, shoot of the AEW Women's World Champ.
>> Well, Andrew looking good here, man.
>> Come on.
>> He's looking sharp, he is motivated.
And to have a match like this, a victory over one of your idols,
that would be a huge feather in the cap of Commander.
We're just gonna take another look at just the agility,
the explosion of Commander.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Over the top rope,
taking Fenix out on the outside.
And now, Commander with an entire ring between himself and Ray Fenix.
>> Yeah, like I said, it wouldn't take long for these guys to take flight.
Here we go.
>> Commander walking the top rope, Fenix back into the ring.
Swing and a miss by Commander.
And now, chest first, that top turnbuckle pad,
getting his leg kicked out from underneath him.
And big diving stomp by Ray Fenix.
>> Was that on the head?
>> I think so.
Cover, two and no.
>> Commander somehow able to survive the diving double stomp from Ray Fenix.
>> And Fenix is coming in hot on, that one, that one even hotter.
>> Fenix, the kick, Aubrey Edwards checking on Commander.
He's still in this match.
Ray Fenix in the driver's seat, fans, we've got a red hot opener on our hands.
And you're not gonna miss a moment cuz we've got the next 90 seconds of picture
in picture.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Precision on the offense.
>> [SOUND]
>> Man, stinging.
>> Man.
>> Overhand shot.
>> Bringing out throughout the Bridgestone Arena.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Man, the fans calling one more time.
So Ray said, okay, why not?
>> The Commander saying no, no more, no mas.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Who does Alex support here?
I guess he supports both of them.
>> Here we go.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Alex just hopes they both have fun.
>> One of them's having fun right now.
>> It's not the guy with the handprints on his chest.
Look, you could see the blood vessels rupturing the chest of Commander.
>> Uno mas.
>> So they just want one more.
>> So Commander getting off easy here.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Jesus Marimba.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Those welts rising on the chest of Commander.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> I guess his head is feeling okay
right now.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> We're back on Rampage where a great
high flying battle has just turned into a slugfest advantage.
Rey Fenix over the high flying young Luke Score Commander.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Rey Fenix,
I think maybe Rainbuster Commander counters.
>> Nice count.
>> And knee to the top of the head.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Because Commander kicks the legs,
gets back down to his feet.
>> Obvious Commander's had a lot of fight left in him.
>> Certainly does, I mean, he's in there with one of his idols.
>> Now overhand chop.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Fenix is punishing the chest of
Commander with those chops.
And now Commander getting some payback, Tony.
>> Yeah, he got to be on the one knee, but now he needs to take advantage of this.
Don't let him, there you go, don't let him get back up.
>> Fans, in an effort to assist those affected by the wildfires in Maui's
proceeds from tonight's Rampage Fight for the Fallen event will go to help
the Maui Food Bank.
If you would like to help those affected by the fires,
please donate to mauifoodbank.org.
>> As Commander goes off the back of Rey Fenix, lands on his feet.
Swing and a miss by Fenix, and Commander up, and
that's a head takes down Fenix.
>> What balance, mid-air balance that he has.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Fenix, you can see very unsteady,
his steps not coming easy for him.
Maybe that was just a lure in Commander playing possum.
>> The momentum was Commander running and hitting the ropes for that.
>> Commander Harker, and Rona Fenix got spiked.
Two and no.
>> I don't see how Rey got out of that at all.
>> Rey Fenix got spiked on that one.
I would love to take another look at that if possible.
He landed, I mean, very high on the shoulders and
almost on the back of his neck.
>> Aubrey Edwards was checking with Rey to see if he was still in this.
>> Commander now with Fenix on the shoulders, the Lumbar.
Commander, the cover, two and no.
>> Fenix able to kick out, not a great cover by Commander, but
he very nearly beat Fenix with it.
>> Yeah, he was fighting really to get the shoulders in, and
he really couldn't get the body across.
>> Good, Commander.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I'm glad we got another look at
that Hork and Rona, that was vicious.
>> And that is what changed the cadence of this match.
As Fenix comes charging in, Commander to back, no, the handspring, but
Fenix waiting there with the cover, the deep cover, and no.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I'm gonna tell you,
these two guys have not disappointed thus far, look at the fans here.
>> On paper, we knew that this was going to be a tremendous matchup, but
it is exceeding expectations.
>> Rey Fenix with the advantage on Commander, you see John Moxley,
Claudio Casagnoli, two of the men that will be opposing Rey Fenix in
the Stadium Stampede match at All In London, Wembley Stadium.
As Fenix now with Commander up on the shoulders,
Commander able to break free, Fenix into the ropes.
>> A little bit of indecisiveness on Rey Fenix that time.
>> Or maybe again trying to lure in Commander.
>> The tightrope walk into the punt.
>> And he just melted into the mat.
>> The cover, the foreleg is hooked, and no, Commander.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> You can see right there,
Rey, even with the mask on, little disappointment on the face.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> And
he didn't keep him down with a freak out that time.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> And the Fight Forever chant ringing
out here in Nashville, what a great way to start Rampage tonight, Tony.
>> This is one- >> Commander, crucifix bomb, two and-
>> No!
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> We're a fraction of a second away from
an upset.
>> That time, Rey Fenix was fighting for all he was worth on one and two, and
I didn't think he'd get out, but he did.
>> Well, Fenix intercepted the thrust kick, comes around, full butt,
Commander tries for the roundhouse.
Hook kick connects, Fenix is dazed, sent into the ropes,
Commander through the lariat, Fenix comes around, hook kick of his own.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Both men go down,
you can tell this match taking a physical toll on Commander,
just as much as Rey Fenix.
>> Yeah, we're gonna take a look again,
he has really worked over the head of Commander, and here's just another shot.
Watch this, gets the momentum of the ropes.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Commander,
you saw he partially anticipated, he tried to get the hand up, but
the kick of Rey Fenix, just too strong and too quick.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Not a lot on that elbow strike
from Commander.
>> Well, I think both men are pretty spent right now.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> With it, well, Rey got some on his.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> These two just exchanging elbows,
drop kick to the chest, Commander,
sent spilling to the outside underneath the bottom rope.
>> Close proximity drop kick as well, I love those.
>> Fenix, what does he have in mind?
Commander, they're down on the floor, Rey Fenix.
To the top, no, Commander sends Fenix crashing into the ring.
>> Well, Commander lured him up on top that time, really.
>> And into a Destroyer.
>> My God.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> The Destroyer and now Commander.
>> He's kicking with the thing.
>> Maybe thinking of Cielito Lindo.
He does the rope walk, the shooting star across the cover.
>> Two, no.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Alex's face says it all.
>> One more time, Xcalibur.
>> Yeah, take a look at this, the springboard Canadian Destroyer
followed up by the Cielito Lindo.
>> Commander very nearly sealed it, very nearly picked up the biggest win of his
professional wrestling career tonight on Rampage.
>> 450 splash, nobody home.
>> The fans are into every move on this one.
>> The ripcord out into the roundhouse kick.
>> Now Fenix.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> I thought that was it, Rey Fenix thought that was it.
This crowd thought it was it.
>> It was a split second away from being a win.
>> What a battle we are witnessing tonight on Rampage.
>> This is incredible, this is so entertaining.
This is, you gotta say this is what AEW is all about, right?
>> It certainly is and maybe some frustration coming out of Rey Fenix.
>> In those chops and now the muscle buster.
Fenix plants Commander Center of the ring and scores the win.
>> The winner of this incredible battle, Rey Fenix.
>> Well said, Justin Roberts, incredible battle is what it was.
>> Moxley and Claudio do not seem impressed by the man that the Black Bull
will face along with Peta El Cerro Miedo.
Eddie King's best friends at Orange Cassidy in the Stadium Stampede match at
All In London.
And speaking of All In London, this past Wednesday night a title by Dr.
Britt Baker, TMD earned her spot in the four way match for
the AEW Women's World Championship.
>> I am here with Dr. Britt Baker.
Britt, we now know that you have qualified for the four way matchup for
the AEW Women's Championship at Wembley All In.
What would it mean for you to have that title around your waist again at
Wembley, no less?
>> Renee, taking it back, I was in the first All In.
Five years ago, I was in the female four way at All In.
Then I was the first female signed to All Elite Wrestling.
I helped lay brick by brick of this foundation that is now the AEW Women's
Division.
I can't think of a better full circle moment than to win for
the second time the AEW Women's World Championship title at Wembley.
And I think we can all agree how magical it will sound when we hear
80,000 people say it with me when I say, Dr. Britt Baker, DMD.
>> UT Marshall have been making quite the splash in Mexico as of late,
competing in AAA in their summer long 31st anniversary TripleMania event.
First picking up a win in an ambulance match last month in Tijuana,
then six days ago, QT traveling to Mexico City where he captured the AAA
Latin American Championship in a hard fought four way match.
[MUSIC]
>> Hey QT, felicidades on becoming the new Latino Americano Campeonato.
[LAUGH] What's that, bud?
>> He's right, we are the best thing on TV.
>> Whoo!
[MUSIC]
>> With a 60 minute time limit, it's four.
>> The Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championship.
>> Introducing the challengers.
>> Hold up, hold up, hold up.
I thought this was Nashville.
I thought this was Party City.
So if y'all came here to party with your boys,
I'm gonna get up, can I get up, yeah.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Yeah.
>> Brother Zay, all ego eating Paige,
walking into a very high stakes matchup tonight on Rampage.
A win here would mean that Zay and Paige will be defending
the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championship at all in zero hour
at Wembley Stadium.
>> It is a big match, there is no question.
And Aussie Oakland cannot afford to look ahead.
I know against MJF and Adam Cole, it's a big match.
They need to look right at their opponents in the ring right now.
>> And their opponents, they are the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions,
Aussie Oakland.
>> Mark Davis on your left, Kyle Fletcher on your right.
>> The Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions winning the titles last month.
And now, tonight on Rampage, having to defend those titles.
And Tony, you're right, Aussie Oakland cannot afford to look past Isaiah Cassidy
and Ethan Paige.
They cannot be fixated on all in one, and
they have to keep their minds on the task at hand here tonight.
>> And I really think Fletcher and Davis really compliment each other for
as well as anyone in AEW or in Ring of Honor for that matter.
Davis is a strong man and Kyle Fletcher can fly and
he's very powerful as well, great tag team.
>> An incredible tag team, Aussie Oakland, but potentially a trap match.
[MUSIC]
We saw the physicality this past Wednesday at Dynamite when Aussie Oakland was
mixing it up with MJF and Adam Cole.
Is that where their minds are?
[MUSIC]
>> Could this be to the benefit of Zay and Ethan Paige?
>> I think so.
Absolutely, I think so.
So we'll see.
Mark Davis back from an injury looking better than ever.
[MUSIC]
>> And fans all in London, the Zero Hour will start us out free around the world.
And then all in London on pay-per-view.
The traditional cable and satellite providers,
Bleacher Report internationally on fight.tv on YouTube.
It will be a global phenomenon.
If you can't be one of the 80,000 plus in Wembley Stadium,
be sure to join us on Sunday, August 27th for all in London on pay-per-view.
>> Sometimes we think it's just kind of hard for
me to wrap my brain around 80,000 people plus.
But when we get there, Excalibur, we'll be able to wrap our brain around it.
>> Covered by Davis there.
Yeah, I've never experienced anything quite like that in my life.
I can't wait to be there in Wembley Stadium as Davis,
Zay, face first in that top turnbuckle pad.
>> We just have wonderful wrestling fans in the UK.
We really do.
And London is such a destination for fans all over Great Britain.
>> I mean, and fans from all over Europe joining us, from the US, from Japan.
We've heard from fans around the world that are making the pilgrimage to London
to be a part of the biggest event in AEW history.
As Fletcher, toe kick to the midsection.
Sends Zay into the ropes, hip toss.
No, Zay, Cazadora into the arc drag.
Takes down Fletcher.
And Zay, Lorcanrana.
Fletcher goes down once again.
And Mark Davis intercepting Zay, preventing the tag.
And just a deadlift, but Zay goes over the top.
>> Again, great teamwork from Aussie Open here, making the exchange,
keeping Zay at bay, so to speak.
And now finally a tag.
>> Yanzi Geary, and now the powerhouse from the other side.
Ethan Page is legal for the first time tonight.
>> It looks like Ethan Page is gonna take flight.
>> No, he's hyping up.
>> Okay. >> Brother Zay who finds the ropes and
takes to the skies.
Brother Zay taking out Aussie Open.
>> And what about all ego Ethan Page really turning over a new leaf in recent
weeks, thanks to the influence.
As we see Zay flying up high, and now the power slam inside the ring.
Ethan Page looking for the cover, but Davis there breaks it up.
That influence of Matt and Jeff Hardy on Ethan Page,
I mean, he's really become a reformed man, so to speak.
>> He has, he's made the best out of it.
I guess he said, you know what, I might as well make the best.
And the best has been the best of Ethan Page that we've seen here in AEW thus far.
Already very successful.
>> Trying to make amends for his past behaviors, a little do-si-do there by
Isaiah Cassidy and Ethan Page.
And now, wait, Aussie Open.
>> Sandwiching Page and Zay inside the ring.
And Aussie Open, can they retain the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championship?
We're gonna find out in Picture in Picture.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Aussie Open, busting out the Vegemite, Tony.
Making a sandwich there, center of the ring.
>> [LAUGH] >> See how I regionalized it?
>> Yeah, that was great.
>> Thank you.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> You ever had a Vegemite sandwich?
>> No, I haven't.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Digging right hand to the back of
the body of Ethan Page.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Davis, man, Davis just so powerful.
Ethan Page is not a small man.
And Davis hoisting him up with relative ease, comes crashing down at the senton.
Davis hooks the far leg and, and Page able to kick out.
>> Now you're right, Mark Davis, a scoop slam with ease.
We saw back body drop with ease earlier on.
He just has such a strong core.
He's a powerful man.
>> And Ethan Page, 220 plus pounds.
But Davis just scooping up Page.
And now the vice like grip around the head of All Ego Ethan Page.
>> You may be thinking, what does that do?
Well, not only does it really work on the blood to the brain, but
it also inhibits you for the remainder of the match.
>> Yeah, I mean, it really sets you back and puts you at a deficit.
>> Sure does.
>> And those body shots by Page now, elbow strike.
Page with that Taekwondo background, he's a very dangerous striker.
Is Davis, just a glancing blow on the elbow strike.
Davis was able to power through it and just hoist it.
Page up with that German suplex.
>> Again, buddy, he can get you up in the air.
>> Watch out.
Fletcher coming in hot, taking down Zay.
>> Great maneuver that time by Fletcher.
Preventing any tag, at least momentarily.
>> Aussie Open wrestling this match with a lot of confidence.
But as we have been saying, Tony, they can't afford to underestimate Ethan Page
and Isaiah Cassidy just because all in London is right on the horizon.
>> Yeah, and they want to face MJF and Adam Cole.
I know that and I know they also wanna be a part of the card at zero hour.
To wrestle in front of 80,000 plus.
But you know who else is motivated to do so?
Ethan Page and Isaiah Cassidy.
>> One, two, three.
[BLANK_AUDIO]
>> A.W. Rampage back on TNT.
All ego Ethan Page desperately needs a tag.
He has just been getting worked over by the Ring of Honor.
World Tag Team Champions, Kyle Fletcher, Mark Davis, Aussie Open.
>> Great block, he's doing it twice now,
hooking that left leg around the knee, back of the knee.
Of Kyle Fletcher's Ethan Page, that's a veteran move.
>> Page using his strength, the sheer drop ring buster, maybe the opening he needed.
Isaiah Cassidy, brother Zay on the apron trying to urge on Page,
trying to get him in the corner to make the tag.
>> And he does.
>> Zay is legal and he's fired up.
Wow, takes the fight to Davis on the apron and now inside the ring to Fletcher.
>> And remember, the winners of this match will face MJF and
Adam Cole at All In London Zero Hour for the Ring of Honor.
World Tag Team Championship, MJF and
Cole challenging for the titles ahead of their main event.
A.W. World Championship title match at All In London.
>> When brother Zay's in the match, everybody has a good time except his opponents.
>> Zay, the springboard, cross body.
The leg is hooked, two and no.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> And brother Zay,
was that him making that shrieking sound when he came off the top?
>> He was shrieking like that on Longstreet last night.
>> [LAUGH] >> Zay up to the top,
Kyle Fletcher down inside the ring.
>> Took a little bit of time to get there.
>> Zay may be taken.
The Hardy's inspired swanton, but Fletcher got the knees up.
>> Stumbled a little bit on that top turnbuckle to get his footing and
it cost him.
>> Kyle Fletcher, the boot.
>> Man, Zay got cracked.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> As Aussie Open now.
>> Great teamwork.
>> Yeah, the tag team synergy of Aussie Open on full display.
Zay down with the cutter.
The far leg, deep end page there, just in time to break it up.
>> Just barely bumped him on the shoulder to cause the break and Ethan.
>> Brother Zay's still the legal man here.
>> Yeah, Ethan Page hoisting up Davis.
He cracked Davis with that kick, but Aussie Open now stereo kicks,
effectively neutralizing Ethan Page.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> With the tag made,
Zay still down and Aussie Open.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> This could be the beginning and
the end for Isaiah Cassidy.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Aussie Open,
the Lariats connect.
The arms of Zay are hooked.
>> Look at this.
>> Coriolis by Aussie Open, two and three.
[SOUND]
>> The winners of this matchup still
ring about a World Tag Team Champions, Aussie Open.
>> Even an earlier save by All Ego Ethan Page could not save Brothers A and
the N, it's Gallagher.
>> And now Aussie Open, the path is clear.
They will head to All In London, Zero Hour, where they will face MJF and
Adam Cole with a ring about a World Tag Team Championship on the line.
[MUSIC]
>> [SOUND]
Next Sunday, Wembley Stadium, Aussie Open proves we're the best.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Adam, MJF,
you guys like to talk a hell of a lot on this microphone.
You, Max, are one of the most terrible people I've ever come into contact with.
And you're a byproduct of the people you surround yourself with, so, Adam Cole,
you are a piece of trash too.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> If there's one thing I can guarantee,
apart from Aussie Open retaining these belts at Wembley Stadium,
is that you will never hit a kangaroo kick in your lives.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Because we're Aussie Open and
we run the world.
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Who will leave Wembley Stadium?
Who will leave All In London as the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions?
Will it be better than you, Bay Bay, MJF, and Adam Cole?
Or will the champs Aussie Open retain?
>> And after leaving their mark on Ring of Honor,
the Righteous now have their sights set on all EA wrestling.
[MUSIC]
>> Hello, AEW.
>> Here we are, old Vincent and Dutch.
Now, Mr. Grayson.
We've all got the power in our hands to hurt.
Most people are afraid to use it.
The ones who are not afraid control life itself.
So you can take as needed for the pain.
>> The Righteous, man, we're brand new.
Everything we do is brand new.
So if anybody wants to do something about it, they come on with it.
If not, then get on off our road.
You get what I'm saying, man?
[MUSIC]
>> We are here at the Hardy Compound and
we are watching a wonderful rampage in Aussie Open.
Big props, that was quite the impressive victory you just picked up over Zay and
Ethan.
>> Jeff, they've been on our radar for a while, right?
>> For sure, Matt.
The current Ring of Honor Tag Team Champions.
You know, we're the past Ring of Honor Tag Team Champions.
>> Former.
>> I'm kinda seeing a dream match next week in Hotlanta,
Georgia against Aussie Open for those Ring of Honor Tag Team titles.
Let's do it, Aussie Open, and that might even lead to another dream match.
The Hardy's first better than you, baby.
MJF and Adam Cole at All In.
You like the sound of that?
>> I love the sound of that.
And it's time for the Ring of Honor Tag Team Championships to get back to
the Ring of Hardy Tag Team Championships.
[MUSIC]
>> This bout is a four on four with a 20 minute time limit.
Making his way to the ring, Sammy Goodfellow.
>> This past Wednesday night at Dynamite, we saw a highly orchestrated assault.
We actually saw two highly orchestrated assaults by Don Callis.
One aimed at Kenny Omega.
The other aimed at Chris Jericho.
Will Ospreay coming into the fray, joining Kunozuke Takeshi to bloody
Chris Jericho.
And just when it seemed like all was lost,
Sammy Guevara had Chris Jericho's back.
>> And that was great because the fans were behind Sammy Guevara,
really for the first time in a long time.
Great to see.
>> And his opponent from San Juan, Puerto Rico, John Crews.
>> Sammy Guevara set to compete tonight in singles action.
Against John Crews.
Guevara, I mean, we heard when the Jericho Appreciation Society,
when they all left Jericho.
He said, Sammy is the last one to leave.
And he said to Chris Jericho, I'll be there for you when you're ready for me.
>> Well, he was ready, I can tell you that.
And how about now Jericho and Will Ospreay at All In a week from Sunday.
>> Wow.
>> Yeah, I mean, it's a dream match.
>> Yes, it is.
>> But it's also a grudge match.
>> Let's go, baby.
>> Chris Jericho, he was saying that this match would have happened regardless.
You didn't need to align yourself with Don Callis.
You didn't need to do it like this.
As Sammy Guevara on the corkscrew drop kick, takes down Crews.
Guevara back up to his feet.
>> Sammy may be the smoothest wrestler in A.W.
Things that he does are so, so light.
>> That's saying something after our opening contest tonight.
But it's true.
>> There we go, baby.
>> Coming over that top, digging out Crews on the floor.
And again, Guevara making it look easy.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Crews with the right hand, intercepted.
Guevara counters with a high kick.
>> [NOISE] >> Into the face.
>> [NOISE] >> And no,
Sammy Guevara comes flying in with a knee strike.
>> They're just so effortless, the things that Sammy can do.
>> And now Guevara, G-T-H.
>> Go on.
>> One, two, three.
[SOUND]
>> And the winner of this match, Sammy Guevara.
>> Sammy wasting no time here tonight, picking up a victory in short order.
And you know Sammy Guevara is gonna have his eyes glued on all in London.
When we see Chris Jericho faces Will Ospreay.
>> Right now let's hear from the native beast, Nyla Rose.
>> A lot of talk of accolades and accomplishments roam in the hallways
these days at All Elite Wrestling.
I was here before there was Dynamite,
who is the most dominant former champion.
It's me, I do what I want, when I want,
to who I want, however I want.
So again, in case you forgot who I am,
let me remind you, the native beast, Nyla Rose.

a four-way match at All In London.
>> The match is set, All In London for the AEW Women's World Championship.
>> Tonight, Tony Storm and Ruby Soho of the Outcast battle it out with Sky Blue,
an AEW Women's Champion, Hikaru Shida.
>> You can't stop me.
You can't stop my dream.
>> Tonight, the Outcast will decimate you.
>> Well, it looks like there's been enough talk.
>> It's time for the main event.
[MUSIC]
>> Your Rampage main event is a tag team bout set for one fall,
with TV time remaining.
Being accompanied by Soraya, Outcast, Ruby Soho, and Tony Storm.
>> A very important match as All In London draws closer and closer.
Tony Storm, one of the challengers for
the AEW Women's World Championship in that four-way match.
But Tony Storm, seemingly a bit unstable since losing the title to
Hikaru Shida at Dynamite 200 a few weeks back.
>> Yeah, she's flipped out basically because I've been close to her to do
an interview with her, which I did on Collision.
She's not handling it well.
[MUSIC]
>> And the reporting first from Chicago, Illinois, Sky Blue.
>> One of the most popular young competitors here in AEW,
faced Soraya for a spot in that four-way AEW Women's World Championship match
a week ago at Rampage.
Fortunately for Sky, was not victorious, but tonight, teaming with the champ.
>> And from Kanagawa, Japan,
she is the AEW Women's World Champion,
Hikaru Shida.
[MUSIC]
>> And the one woman we haven't talked about in this match, Tony, Ruby Soho.
She is extremely dangerous in her own right, and it could be that the Outcasts
are on a mission to make sure Shida doesn't get to All In London at 100%.
>> That would not surprise me, but the interesting fact is that Tony Storm and
Soraya both are in this match coming up a week from Sunday, that is.
Makes for a very, very interesting storyline, I think.
>> Yeah, will things break down between the Outcasts at All In London?
If Soraya has an opportunity to pin Tony Storm for
the AEW Women's World Championship, will she take it?
And likewise, would Tony Storm take that chance?
>> Well, I would hope to think they would, both ways.
>> ST Harris there by Sky Blue, taking down Ruby Soho.
Sky charging in, looking for that rising knee strike, but instead, Ruby with
the waist lock, Sky counters.
Lateral press, just two counts since referee Bryce Remsburg.
>> Caught Sky Blue, staggers Ruby Soho.
>> Sky has improved so much over even the past six months.
>> Now the distraction by Tony Storm on the floor, but
that's where that relative inexperience comes into play.
She was looking down at Tony Storm, took her eye off her opponent inside the ring.
>> Here's Ruby, and Sky Blue to the Outcast corner.
>> One of the reasons Sky has developed and
improved so much over the past six months, she's had more ring time.
She's had more matches, we've seen her a lot more often.
You can only get better, Miss Caliber, with more ring time.
>> No, she's had mentorship from great competitors, right?
Well, and we've seen here tonight, two-time AEW Women's World Champion,
Hikaru Shida, for Sky Blue, her relationship with Madison Reign,
one of the great veterans in women's professional wrestling.
As Tony Storm, with the referee's attention diverted, taking advantage.
>> What?
>> I did nothing.
>> You did nothing.
>> I did nothing.
>> You did nothing.
>> Nothing.
>> One, two, three.
>> Trying to plead her case, but she got caught red-handed.
>> One, two, three.
>> As the Outcast, just stomping a hole.
It's Sky Blue in the corner.
Hikaru Shida, looking on, frustration on her face.
>> Then do something about it, I'm watching you.
>> Bryce, stop yelling at him.
>> I'm watching you.
>> These refs are just gonna get earfuls from all three of the Outcasts.
>> I was thinking the same thing.
Bryce is arguing with the three ladies.
I know he's the referee, but he's not gonna win that argument.
>> Double hammer throw.
Hikaru Shida putting on the brakes.
>> There you go.
>> Uh-oh, we've got a face-off here.
Tony Storm went right after Hikaru Shida.
>> That's right, right after the champion.
>> The woman who in nine days time, Tony Storm, will hope to dethrone.
Tony Storm looking to become the first, the only three-time AEW Women's
World Champion, and she has an opportunity to do so at All In London.
Sky Blue sent into the corner by the Outcast.
Sky slips through the ropes.
Tony Storm cracking her with that elbow strike.
>> And a hip attack sends Sky Blue reeling to the floor.
And this main event match between the Outcasts, Sky Blue and
Hikaru Shida continues in picture in picture.
>> [NOISE] >> They are beating
the hell out of Sky Blue right now.
>> My God.
>> In the ring, let's go, Tony, in the ring.
>> That jaw set, when Tony first arrived here at AEW,
remember the fans cheered her on, they loved her and everything.
And I knew, I knew there was something to miss about her.
>> [NOISE] >> Did you?
>> Yeah, I did.
I just knew that she's not, don't cheer for that lady,
cuz something wrong.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Look at her pirouettes,
spinning in the corner.
>> Was it her accident?
>> No, she just.
>> [NOISE]
>> And now this whack job is just
grinding her boot to the side of the head.
Sky Blue while Soraya- >> Here we go.
>> Offering the assist on the outside.
Ruby Soho knocked the champion, Hikaru Shida, off the corner.
So Sky Blue, nobody to tag in at the moment.
And Sky laying in some elbow shots trying to work her way toward the friendly corner.
>> Sky Blue is a fighter.
Young girl has a lot more to learn, but she is a fighter.
>> Yeah, her growth, her maturation process over the last few months,
really, has been incredible.
For her to even be in a position a week ago,
to potentially be in the four-way match,
the cover here by Toni Storm just speaks to the tremendous growth of Sky Blue.
>> Like how Toni Storm tried to get the win right there, that was nicely done.
Even from the whack job.
>> [NOISE] >> Look at this, wrong place to be.
>> And Toni Storm, I hate to admit it, but doing a good job of keeping
referee Bryce Rendsburg's attention off of what was happening in the outcast corner.
>> Yeah, Bryce Rendsburg went to the other side.
There you go, man.
Boy, Sky Blue just fighting for all she's worth here now.
>> Now the roll up by Sky.
High stack on Ruby, but Ruby able to break free in the elbow strike.
Ruby ran her over like a truck.
On the cover, two hand.
>> Ruby got a great running start on that elbow.
And that helped the momentum, but
it's where she planted the elbow that made its mark.
>> Now the straight jacket applied by Ruby Soho.
Wrenching back on Sky Blue.
>> I think the fans of Great Britain, they watch us on ITV,
they're not gonna be thrilled about having Sarraya back home.
>> It's gonna be incredible when Sarraya walks out in front of 80,000 plus people.
Biggest crowd she'll have ever competed in front of in England.
And to do it, I mean, just miles away from her hometown in Norwich.
>> [NOISE]
>> But Sarraya will have to contend with
Toni Storm, with Hikaru Shida.
And a woman we haven't spoken about yet, the woman who qualified for
this match this past Wednesday night at Dynamite, Dr. Brick Baker, DMD.
>> [NOISE]
>> Yeah, who's not in this match, but
knowing the fighter that Britt is, she wouldn't mind being in it as well.
>> [NOISE]
>> Sky Blue desperately looking to tag in
the EW Women's World Champion, Hikaru Shida, and she does.
And now Shida taking the fight to Ruby Soho, taking it to Toni Storm.
>> You can believe she's fresh because Sky Blue, as you can see,
I've taken the brunt of this punishment here.
>> Big reaping Enziguri caught Ruby Soho, staggered her.
Now Hikaru Shida, great display of power by the champion,
who is just days away from all in London.
>> [NOISE]
>> Where Hikaru Shida will have to put her
EW Women's World Championship on the line against Sarraya, against Toni Storm, and
against Dr. Brick Baker, DMD.
Who intercepted as Shida, who question mark kick,
catching Ruby Soho but Toni Storm.
>> And we've got a suplex, Sky Blue, kick caught and Sky comes around Enziguri.
>> [NOISE]
>> And Saito suplex by Ruby Soho,
all four competitors down.
>> Dropped her on her head, dropped Sky Blue on her head, that is, and
man, Sarraya checking in on Toni Storm.
She won't be checking in on her in London, I can tell you that.
Same matchup in the four way.
>> [NOISE]
>> Now this past Wednesday night at
Dynamite, Dr. Brick Baker, DMD defeating the Bunny.
Moving on to all in London, moving on to compete for
the EW Women's World Championship.
Tremendous knee strike there by Hikaru Shida.
Tag made to Sky Blue, Sky off the back.
One, two, no, the hip attack to break off the pinning predicament.
>> Great execution by Sky Blue, but
she couldn't get the pin thanks to Toni Storm.
>> [NOISE]
>> Sky Blue with the event, the spray paint in the eyes.
That's how Sarraya defeated Sky Blue a week ago.
And now here tonight, the spray paint coming into play once again.
Hip attack in the corner.
>> Boy, that rocked the head of Sky Blue.
>> And Sky couldn't see it coming.
The spray paint in the eyes, and now Toni Storm, two, and no.
>> Hikaru Shida there to break it up.
>> Hikaru Shida keeping her team alive in this match.
>> Boy, that time Sarraya had slipped her the pin, I didn't even see her do it.
>> And Hikaru Shida may be going this alone for the rest of the night.
>> Yeah.
>> Sky Blue with the spray paint in the eyes, but
right now the story becomes Toni Storm, Hikaru Shida,
picking up right where they left off at Dynamite 200.
>> A prelude to all in London, a prelude to the AEW Women's World Championship
four-way match.
>> Just railing away against her, holding the hand of Toni Storm,
keeping her head like, wait a minute.
>> Sarraya grabbing the boot.
>> [NOISE] >> The referee didn't see it.
>> And Toni Storm, what a high kick.
>> Wiped her out on that.
>> Hikaru Shida blindsided, caught by the kick.
And now the Outcasts with Shida up, and Sky Blue.
The thrust kick takes out Toni Storm.
Shida, one for the right hand, no future, no, no future, caught.
>> Like jackknife, two and three.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Here are your winners,
the team of Sky Blue and the AEW Women's World Champion.
>> God. >> And look at this,
the Outcasts just mugging Sky Blue.
>> She was hit with that spray can.
>> Sarraya blindsiding Hikaru Shida.
Toni Storm, Sarraya.
Two of the four competitors in the AEW Women's World Championship
four-way match.
Look at the officials trying to pull Toni Storm off Hikaru Shida.
And Sarraya, what an interference, and wait a second.
[MUSIC]
The fourth woman involved in that match, Dr. Britt Baker, DMD.
Hoping to become two-time champion, will it be her night at all in London?
Hikaru Shida turning things around on Sarraya.
Toni, this is broken loose.
>> All four women who are gonna be in that match winning now.
>> And the referees cannot restore order here on Sky Library.
They can't look.
>> Yeah, we are sending the security detail to try to separate these four women.
They have to save it for the Wembley Stadium.
They have to save it for all in London.
The biggest night in AEW, the biggest night in professional wrestling.
We are just nine days away from it.
>> I say stay out of their way, let them go for it.
>> And that's what the fans are saying as well, let them fight.
>> Who will leave Wembley Stadium as AEW Women's World Champion?
Will it be Sarraya?
Will it be Toni Storm?
Will it be Dr. Britt Baker, DMD?
Or will it be Hikaru Shida?
>> They can't hold these women back.
>> Well, fans, thank you for joining us tonight on Rampage.
We will see you right back here on TNT tomorrow night,
8/7 Central for AEW Collision.
