Winners: Matt Hardy and Private Party
Well that was fun! I kinda wanted to see The Dark Order get that win, but I think that’s for selfish reasons more than it being the right choice writing-wise. Matt continues to create a rift between he and those who look up to him, so it’s more of a slow burn to them with an added dash of Silver trying to warm up Page. Great opener.

Backstage, MJF has a plaque for his Best Performer of 2020. Jericho tries to take credit, but MJF cuts ihm off, brings up his diamond ring win, and his plaque, then tells Jericho he couldn’t have done this without Jericho. He sees what’s online, people claiming he is better than Jericho, but he sees right through that. He sees a mentor, the GOAT, and MJF sees his best friend. He couldn’t have done it without them. Jericho smiles, begrudgingly.

WE COME BACK, and Cody is introduced as a future father. So….there’s that.

Fingers crossed this rids us of the whole Shaq thing.

Match 2: Cody Rhodes (w/ Brandi Rhodes) vs Angelico (w/ Jack Evans)
Angelico works the arm behind Cody, then tosses him by the head hard over his shoulder. Lockup and Cody works the arm this time, moving slower, then hits an arm drag. Cody tries to keep control, but Angelico creates separation to the joy of the crowd. They go for a test of strength, but Cody works the left arm instead, dropping it on his shoulder. Angelico twists out of the hold, slides behind Cody, turns him, arm drag to Cody, and Angelico mocks Cody, laying on his back, goading Cody.

Winner: Cody Rhodes
Ok, so I wanted to hate this, as I felt the opening was a bit too “big match start” for my liking, and if that isn’t typical Cody, right? Then, he uses his mouth to break the submission, when his leg was very much right there. BUT the truth is, I really freakin like Angelico, and Cody – to his credit – played his part well. I dunno, it’s hard to call a match good without sounding like a fanboy, which I most certainly am not for Rhodes.

Out comes Tazz. He congratulates Cody on the win, but also on being a daddy. All this daddy talk, says Ricky, where was the congrats when he made Cody and Darby their sons? Taz says that’s the way it works around here. With regards to Darby, he’ll be mince meat real soon by Cage. He’ll whoop that ass. Speaking of ass whoopin, Team Taz is coming to the ring, and Cody will be put on Paternity Leave.

BUT THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND WINTER IS COMING!!!

Sting comes out with his bat. Hobbs wants some of that ass, but his people hold him back. Sting and Darby give each other a little look, then Sting turns back to Cody and gives him a wink. Sting leaves, which really makes me wonder why Taz and Co won’t just come back down to beat that ass as expected.

BACKSTAGE, Miro is informed that he was fined $75,000. He hates Cassidy, because he doesn’t care. It’s all about the numbers on the internet, but Orange just doesn’t care.

Marvez asks what about the people in the hospital that Miro put there, it’s Christmas! Miro says BAH HUMBUG, and it’s his birthday.

EDDIE KINGSTON is here! He’s wearing a Tupac long sleeve hoodie yet looks so freakin Brooklyn. He says he doesn’t care about any of us. Are those Timbs? Eddie says he’s got a lot of enemies, shout out to God who can’t take him down. Another enemy? Pac. He went hom to nurse his injuries. Career is done. No way Pac is comin back. Hows about Lance Archer?

Well that did NOT take long. Archer’s music hits, and this dude just trucks it down to the ring, attacking Eddie in the corner. He beats him down until Butcher and Blade run down to attack Archer. Eddie is up to help, but Archer isn’t going down hard.

Pheonix and Penta enter the ring. Butcher and Blade stand up, ready. PAC slides in lookin like Tom Savini. They send Butcher, Blade, and Kingston to the outside. Penta kicks Butcher off the apron, Rey hits the ropes and flies over them to the outside onto Butcher and Blade. Archer in the ring, GOOZLE!! Kick from Pac! Pac stomps Kingston out of the ring. Archer is NOT HAPPY. They go face to face, he and Pac, and jaw jack for a minute over who should have gotten Eddie’s ass. Pac, Archer, Penta, and Rey all stand in the ring, asking for more.

Backstage, Dustin looks like he’s got facepaint on both sides of his face. He says he will not be joining Dark Order, claiming that Seven was a bad idea then and now. He is going to kick Evil Uno’s ass!

ORANGE CASSIDY IS HERE!!!! He joins the commentary table with a headset that isn’t even plugged in, and its mic turned up. I love everything about him.

Winners: The Inner Circle
Admittedly, juuuuust a little too indy main event for me, with the slow start from Pillman, and an attempt to give a spotlight to the new kids, but not nearly a good enough one as it was shrouded with too many people and some spot calling and clunkiness at times.

THUNDER ROSA is backstage, calling out Britt Baker who says she doesn’t belong. Rosa has been wrestling all over the world, but last time she faced Deeb, it was Britt who interfered. So she wonders now why Rosa is beating Britt’s ass? Maybe she really does sbelong here. For Britt to have the balls to say she doesn’t belong here – laugh.

Rebel comes in to say that this was a horrible laugh. In comes Britt to attack from behind, telling her she doesn’t belong here. She locks in her submission, and Rebel tosses water on her face while Britt wipes the makeup off. Britt looks into the camera, wondering if it still works.

PAC is here!!! He’s not alone. Penta and Rey are with him. Pac tells Omega that they have some unfinished business. He isn’t here to be selfish, though. They are here to address injustice. Look at Rey. He never got his shot.
