It’s Part Two of the Costco coverage, and I gotta be honest…a fat slice of pepperoni and a chicken bake sounds choice right now…

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means…

I’m 5 minutes late but hear that Samoa Joe was attacked by Swerve while coming out for his match with Dustin! Sick. I’ve asked my comment section to summarize for me, so expect the best one to be placed here.

from YOU COWARD!:

corpulent islander gets ouchie ouch. developments soon to follow

from Benjamin J

Joe and Swerve picked up where they left off last week, with less bleeding and about as much tables.

from Mr. Peanutbutter (Probably the most thorough)

Joe comes out to open the show for his match with Dustin but is attacked by Swerve on the ramp and onto the floor. Joe turns things around and sets up a table against the barricade. He goes to throw Swerve through it, but Swerve reverses things and then spears Joe through the table.
Officials come out to help Joe to the back. Then they show Renee outside OC’s dressing room, and she announces that OC will be in action on Rampage and will address Trent turning on him last week.

Penta double underhooks again, Adam escapes, Penta hits th ropes, springboard. SPEAR FROM ADAM!!! Cover! 1..2…3!!!

Winner: Adam Copeland
I get that Adam Copeland maybe wants to have “epics” with everyone he faces, but not all matches need to follow that format (because, yes, epics with quotation marks do have forumlas). The latter half of the match was much better than the first half, but it could have easily been ten minutes and been just as impactful, if not more.
Total Rating: **1/2
Match Time: 20:41

The lights go out as Adam stands in the middle of the ring.

When they come back on, Julia Hart is staring Adam down. From behind, Brody King attacks.

Here comes Willow Nightingale to make it even. Julia hits her with mist and Willow is stunned for a bit until Brody pulls at Willow. Adam is back up and attacks Brody, sending him out of the ring. The heels hightail it.

Backstage, Renee is with Hook, Chris Jericho, and Katsuyori Shibata and brings up their six man today. Renee asks Hook something specific, but Jericho cuts her off, says he’ll answer. They will sit under the learning tree of Chris Jericho. He will start with Ogogo. He will then tag Hook to handle Taylor, then tag Shibata, who will handle Moriarty. If they listen to Jericho and breathed the rarified air of Jericho, there is nothing but success for the future.

Jericho leaves.

Shibata uses a translator app to ask what is his deal, then compliment Renee on her necklace.

Weird zooming in and out of Jericho here.

All In footage up next

---

The Young Bucks are seated backstage, bring up All In, then talk about FTR and their history.

They bring up Jack Perry, saying he is the scapegoat. They bring up the other individual, then say that maybe FTR were the masterminds behind this all. Matt says you cant just bash others in a public forum.

They cut, come back and say that the locker room was in disarray, there were respectable journalists that needed answer. They had no time to even pray. They will see FTR beating The Young Bucks at All In, but if you ask anyone else, there should be. A big * by the victory. The footage is short and resembles a high school scrap.

Let’s roll the tape.

We see silent footage where Punk is basically shown as the aggressor, who shoves Perry, they tussle for a bit, then get broken up.

Matt says the worst part about this whole thing is creating a show, filling the building, only to be so distracted by something so stupid that you lose on your big night. Then, at the end, FTR has the balls to stick their hands out and ask to shake their hands? They wont be shaking hands with FTR at Dynasty. Be ready.

FTR are here live, and they are not scheduled, according to Excalibur.

Why, says Cash? What are they hoping to accomplish other than having a built in excuse as to why they lost at Wembley? Cash is tired of hearing about it all, talking about it. Everyone back there, they are ready to move on and put it in the past. He is done with it. Instead of talking about Revolution, going back to Wembley this year, doing some of the best shows ever, we are showing videos of 8 years ago. Cash is sick of the petty little bitches.

Dax says every interview they have, they let us all know that without them, hundreds of people would be out of a job, AEW wouldn’t exist. The scary thing is, Dax doesn’t disagree. Without them, he still might be shaving Cash’s back. But because of the Bucks, they have something that they cannot get over – they’ll never admit it, but now FTR has eclipsed them as the best tag team on this planet. At one time, they cared about AEW but somewhere along the way, they lost it. Now 3 other letters have taken over. EVP. On their backs, and everyone else that wants to be here, they will keep building. For them and the future, so they have a choice, but also for every single man and woman who goes to work and spends their money on one ticket to see them. If The Bucks don’t wanna be a part of it, grab their ball – they’ve got this. This aint about Wembley, about All Out, it’s about AEW – a company that he loves in an industry that he loves. It’s also about th titles. Two teams walk in, one team walks out first ever 3 time champion. Bucks may have built this foundation, but they will put the roof on top of this house just to blow that SOB back off.

Will Ospreay is here with Renee. They’re at the top of the stage. He’s been thinking about this all week. His apologizes, he asked for five minutes and got it. TV Time is expensive. There is this rumor that Will is afraid of the grind. He is one of the few guys traveling from UK to US and delivering some of the best wrestling matches this world has ever seen. The guy that said this is only in the positon he is in was only ecause he was grinding the boss’s daughter, he has no right to call him out. Don’t throw stones at an assassin with a machine gun.

As for Bryan, Will is stronger and faster, and the only way he hs a chance is if he can ground Will. Here’s some respect, but healthier men have tried and failed. Better men have tried and failed, but he is Bryan Danielson. He is a living legend. These people paid a lot of money to see the best wrestlers go at it. This is AEW. Where the best wrestle. It’s his time.

I smell squash…

Lockup to start, Argento tries for a right, a kick, another right, Okada hits his own knocking Argento down. He attacks the back with some hammers. Modified neckbreaker from Okada – kinda like a White Noise with a head capture. ARgento up, kicks, chops, but Okada no-sells.

Alex Marvez is with Mercedes Mone and brings up Double or Nothing.

Five years ago, history was made. AEW had the first ever PPV there. She is a history maker, a game changer, so she will head to Vegas to be the TBS Women’s Champion.

Marvez brings up Dynasty, where Julia Hart defends against Willow.

Mercedes cant wait to watch that match. Both girls are the very best. Hart has been one hell of a champion. You cant predict her games. She has Willow’s number. Willow, on the other hand, is a force to be reckoned with. She is dangerous.

Marvez wants her to talk about that.

Mercedes brings up a year ago when she lost and got injured. She also lost the chance to be the first ever woman to hold that title. She hates to lose. Being the CEO of AEW now, she always has a plan and she cannot wait for Double or Nothing.

Who would she rther face? Julia or Willow?

LIGHTS OUT!!!

They are back on, and Mercedes is laid out, moaning…

I…uh…I need a towel…
