It’s Day 2 of The 411 Royal Rumble, an in true WWE fanboy fashion, we’ve made this thing too big for one night! Just to remind you where we are, here’s a recap of Monday Night!

We go full black. No one can see a thing. A barely audible “WTF” from MJF is heard before a single green laser shoots towards the tron. It spells out in all caps THE EX COLLECTORS! The lights go on!

It’s #5, #6, #7 and #8!!!

Filthy Jake Fury, Jack of Clubs, MoMoney1985, and Stinko Malenko come out at the same time! They’re wearing huge EXs on their singlets! They’ve broken the rules of the Rumble! They head to the ring, one man on each side, and hop onto the apron SHIELD style! MJF stands in the middle of the ring, frightened. Wardlow slides in to go back to back with MJF. The crowd is going wild! EX! CO! LLECTOR! Chants over and over! THEY ENTER THE RING! All four hop on Wardlow first as MJF cowers to the corner! They send Wardlow out of the ring in quick fashion, then turn to MJF, grab him and send him flying out of the ring!

All four men stand in the middle of the ring. One hand in the sky, finger pointing upward, and the other on their chest!

THIS SHIT IS GETTING WILD!!!

The oddly familiar sound of Alberto Del Rio’s music hits! Out comes Roberto Benavidez! He’s in a suit! He’s got a microphone. The four men turn towards the ramp, awaiting the entrance of Benavidez! He hushes the crowd…

“DAMAS Y CABALLEROS….”

Benavidez introduces Ricardo Rodriguez as #9!!!

Ricardo runs down the ramp, enters, tries to do the same pose The Ex-Collectors did, but they don’t fall for it! Ricardo is eliminated!

The timer counts down as the men in the ring high five each other, neither attacking the others. We finally get to #10, and it’s ROBERTO BENAVIDEZ!!! He runs from his post at the top of the ramp, slides into the ring, the four men circle him, but Robert rips of his suit! HE’S AN EX-COLLECTOR, TOO!!!!

Match 1: Jon Moxley vs Wheeler Yuta (w/ Orange Cassidy and Danhausen)
Wheeler goes for an immediate dropkick, but Jon dodges it, and tries for a clothesline. Lockup and Moxley with the go behind into a side headlock. Shoulder tackle to Wheeler, and Mox stares down Dan. Wheeler up, Moley locks the left arm, Wheeler from behind, Moxley turns into it, Wheeler rolls out and hits an arm drag. Another sends Moxley to the outside where he goes face to face with Orange Cassidy. This distraction allows Yuta to dive out of the ring, only for Jon to catch him in a Sleeper! Back body drop attempt, but Yuta escapes and hits a dropkick! Yuta grabs Jon and sends him into the ring. Yuta springboards, tries for a dropkick, Jon side steps, grabs the head, hits a sick ass front suplex, releasing Yuta in the air. Stomp from Jon. Another stomp. Cover. 1..2…NO!!! Chop to Yuta. Chop from Wheeler. They trade another pair. Yuta to the outside. STF from Moxley. He sits Yuta on the top rope then rakes the shit out of Yuta’s back. He locks the head, Yuta punches the kidneys. Headbutt to Jon. Yuta flies, lands on his feet, rolls through, dropkick to Moxley! Jon misses a clothesline. Inverted Atomic Drop. Kick to the face, running clothesline in the corner! Yuta to the top rope, Moxley rolls out, lands on the apron, Yuta hops odwn, they both try to kick. Moxley with a bunch of headbutts, then a DDT to the apron! Jon sends Yuta back into the ring. Orange is there again. Jon turns, Danhausen points angrily! Yuta flies! Crossbody off the top rope!!!

Yuta sends Jon into the ring, German to Jon! Bridge for 1..2..NO!!! Moxley with a go behind, Yuta rolls him up for 1..2…NO!!! Jon shoots him, CUTTER TO YUTA!!!! YUTA IS STUNNED!!! Double underhook!

Winner: Jon Moxley
Some may be upset about the amount of time Yuta got, but damn man, why shouldn’t he get ten minutes! I enjoyed this opener, and Moxley is lookin real real good.
Total Rating: ***
Match Time: About 10 minutes

Moxley celebrates in the ring, turns, and Daniel Bryan is in the ring!!! He’s all smiles!! Jon stares him down, paces a bit. Daniel has a mic.

Bryan straight up: “Do you guys want to see us fight?”

For a long time, says Bryan, he wanted to see them fight, too. Because Moxley was different. Bryan wanted to see what he’s had, but since he’s come back, we’ve seen a new Moxley. Give it up for him. Deep inside of Bryan, there has always been a part that wanted to test him. He saw Jon, watching as the World Champion, and he was the BEST AEW World Champion. If he had a little support, he’d still be AEW Champion. This is when Bryan realized that Jon Moxley and Bryan Danielson shouldn’t be fighting, they should be fighting together.

There is no reason why some millennial cowboy should be champion. The loser creating a VLOG shouldn’t be the TNT Champion. Together, they could run this place. If they wanna be tag team champs, they can be. If they wanna take some of these young guys, like Wheeler, you see him…he’s coming out with jokes! Coming out with OC and Danhausen. What if they took someone like Yuta under their wings. Someone like Garcia away from 2point0 and THEY mentored him. What about Lee Moriarity and took him under their wings.

Moxley gives the camera the look like Bryan is delusional. Bryan knows this is a lot, so he doesn’t have to answer right now, but he wants Moxley to think about it – the possibilities. Think about all the positive things, all the greatness that they can create and the legacy that Jon Moxley wants to leave.

Bryan tells Moxley to think about it, then leaves.

The music of Shaft hits! The five men in the ring await the next man! It’s LEN ARCHIBALD!!!

Len stands at the top of the ramp and stares at the five men in the ring. He makes zero effort to make it down the ramp, and instead, sits on the edge of the stage while the five men in the ring stand there confused. Commentary runs down Len’s accomplishments while he swings his legs, hanging off the stage a bit. Len has a bag of popcorn with him! Ha! He grabs a few kernels and pops them in his mouth as we get to the final countdown of ten…nine….eight…

It’s KEN HILL!!!!!!

The Len and Ken Connection are here! Len hops up, tosses the bag of popcorn behind him, and gives a knowing nod to Ken! They walk down the ramp in unison. The five men in the ring all look ready to go! Ken and Len stop at the bottom of the ramp, right in front of the ring. Len slices his neck with his finger, Ken punches his fist into his hand. They hop on the apron just as the 10 countdown starts. Ken and Len point behind The Ex-Collectors! They turn.

Tony Acero hops on the apron behind them with a smile!! Len and Ken smile knowingly, Tony stares the men down in the ring. It’s still three on five, but they don’t care!

Five….Four….Three…..Two…One!

CM Punk v MJF package.

When we return, Brandi Rhodes is in the ring.

Oh boy…

She says she loves it here, everyone is so nice in Cleveland. Or Chicago. Whatever. It’s the same thing.

Lambert is here to shut her up. He is mad she has started believing her own bullshit. They may have given her a reality show, but she needs a reality check. He’s going to give it a shot.

Brandi can pretend Cody earned his spot, pretend that Chief Brand Officer is a real title, and not just something given to her to stroke her. You can even pretend that her “Brandi From the Block” bullshit accent isn’t as fake as her tits. Hahahaha.

What you cant pretend is that even standing next to Lambert, he almost feels like a decent human being standing next to her. Brandi tells Ethan the only reason they hired him was to get to Josh Alexander. But let’s keep it between her and Lambert. Why do they have beef? They should get to know each other. Lambert is doin well. 5 time gym of the year, most champs on his team in history.

STFU chant. Lol.

She asks if the crowd is done. Things are going pretty good for him but not great. It is a little telling that his best fighter got his ass knocked out by Jake Paul. All she is trying to say is that he should spend a little less time at AEW and a little more time with his own team.

Lambert, says wow. All that charm, and a quick wit? Cody is a lucky man. Don’t you think it’s time they all go heel, because the only face turn is the one from her old job, where she was turned face down. Um….

SLAP from Brandi.

Lambert had a feeling she was in a fighting move, and probably not the only one that wants to beat her ass. He’s got some things to do before he gets cancelled, though, so he has a better idea.

Here is….

Paige Van Somethin or Other.

She enters the ring, shoots for Brandi, Brandi lays in some soft punches, and ut comes the entire women’s locker room to hold the two back from one another.

Ugh……

This is hitting a mark, but really not the one they want it to.

Matt talks to Private Party, he’s upset with them. Matt wants the title. In comes Andrade. He says that they lost last week, and Matt was embarrassed and angry. This week, for the TNT Chmapionship, Isaiah is taking on Sammy. Andrade has him. He doesn’t want mistakes. Kassidy says he’ll take the title and maybe take his girl.

What’s the status with Darby, says Matt. Andrade says you know the business. Maybe he wants more money. Money talks, says Andrade.

Weird.

Match 2: Penta and Pac vs Brody King and Malakai Black
Pac is wearing a wrap around his eyes. He is walked out by Abraham. Black checks to see if Pac can actually see anything. Black gives him one more chance to leave the ring.

Cole is here! He is pissed. He is tired of hearing that Orange Cassidy beat him That was a fluke, and his record reflects just that. Even him, with this undefeated singles record, he doesn’t get the respect. He’s one of the best damned wrestlers on the planet, and has been for years. Everyone will see a ne side. In two nights, he will fight Evil Uno, and after he hurts and beats him, the entire world will know what he wants.

Fire spews from all four corners, pushing back the 411 Four into the center of the ring. They go back to back as #15 makes his way out.

It’s…..ELIMINATOR KANE!!!! Jeremy stands in front of the other three, mouths “I got this,” and waits for the troll to enter the ring. Kane hops on the apron, one leg over the ropes, then the other.

The rock n roll music of Jim Cornette hits and it’s not long before Barley96 makes his 411 Rumble debut! He’s dressed like Cornette, and he has a microphone. What is with EVERYONE WANTING TO TALK!

“This product is shite! Look at that ring! Nothing but part-timers and old has-beens who wouldn’t know a good wrestling story if it bit them in their ass! We got Jeremy “Banhammer” Thomas thinking he runs the place! And look at that smug face of Acero! This ENTIRE thing is in your Gawd Damned head! How delusional can you be? Oh and don’t get me started on this stupid Len and Ken Connection! No wonder Watry left!”

Len stands on the rope and hangs over, with one hand giving Barley the Just Bring It sign.

His rant is long enough for #17 to make his way down the ramp, and it’s….it’s…TIMBER WULFF!!! He’s carrying a belt, definitely not recognized by 411, but looks like he put a bunch of money into it. It reads 411 RR WINNER and he walks rigt past Barley, stands IN FRONT OF HIM, and holds his title in the air. He turns to face Barley, goes face to face with his title in the air then… stands right next to him and points at the ring.

Tony is in the ring and he introduces Hangman Adam Page! He brings up the upcoming death match. He asks Page about it.

Page says he’s been champion for 81 days, and he’s defended it twice. He came out at the beginning of the year and begged and pleaded for a challenger, and here he is still waiting. He has a five month baby at home, there’s a foot of store outside, and his flight home is probably getting cancelled. He doesn’t give a shit about the match next week, because he needs something – anything – and he needs it tonight. He knows Lance is back there, so let’s get it down tonight.

Here comes Lambert….again. He is surprised Page even showed up here. He figured a soft ass cowboy like Page would feel better at Cleveland.

Page tells him to shut up, but Jake tells him to shut up, little boy.

Jake says people are telling him that you’re starting to act different, looking behind him. Is he having bad dreams? A Nightmare? What is it? Smell something? He smells something. It’s fear.

Archer comes out, tells both men to shut up, and guns it towards the ring. Page flies with a suicide dive! He sends Archer into the ringsteps. Lambert hits Page with a chair! Lol. Page no sell it. He looks to hit a Buckshot but Archer hits him with a chair! Archer sets the steps up, then drops Page on them! Archer lifts Page for the Blackout, and sends him INTO the table!

Jericho has some words. He brings up last week. Why did Santana and Ortiz do what they did? For Kingston? Because they started together? They started AEW together! No one has more influence than Jericho in AEW. He wants to hear from them, face to face, why they did what they did last week. He is demanding a full Inner Circle team meeting next week. They all better show up. Attendance is mandatory.

He rolls him into the ring. Wardlow looks to hop on the apron. MJF has the ring on!!! PUNCH TO THE HEAD OF PUNK!!!! COVER!!!! 1….2……….3!!!!!

Winner: MJF
Man….first the positive. This was wonderful in terms of psychology, even giving a reason to make it go longer than thirty minutes without being too contrived. Punk sold his arm and knee like a champ, and MJF, after getting his ass handed to him for the first ten minutes, pulled out the tricks necessary to win, giving Punk his first loss, but a loss worth it. The negative is more of a personal thing, as we all know I’m not a fan of commercial breaks, even though it’s completely necessary for Dynamite. Secondly, there were moments where it dragged just a tad, but what bothers me the most was just how long it took to Wardlow to come out. Just seemed kind of odd to wait so long to come out, even as a presence. Still, what a match.
