AEW Rampage Results – June 10, 2022

June 11, 2022

Rampage Date: June 10, 2022 Location: Cable Dahmer Arena, Independence, Missouri Commentators: Excalibur, Taz We are just over two weeks away from Forbidden Door but things have been shaken up pretty hard around here lately. A string of injuries has changed some of the direction in AEW but bringing in some of the New Japan wrestlers should help. That includes this week, as Will Ospreay/Aussie Open are teaming up to face FTR/Trent Beretta. Let’s get to it. Opening sequence. Eddie Kingston vs. Jake Hager Kingston strikes away to start but Hager knocks him down with a knee to the ribs. Hager sends him outside before it’s back inside to crank on both arms. They’re already back to the floor with Hager pounding away, followed by some forearms in the corner back inside. The armbar goes on back inside but Kingston fights up. That doesn’t go well for Kingston, who gets chopped so hard that he takes down the straps. Kingston kicks him in the head to take over, only to walk into an overhead be..

AEW Dynamite Results – June 8, 2022

June 9, 2022

Dynamite Date: June 8, 2022 Location: Cable Dahmer Arena, Independence, Missouri Commentators: Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, Jim Ross It’s time for things to get all the more interesting again as this week will include the first half of the process to find a new Interim AEW World Champion. That alone should fill in a good bit of the show, as we get a battle royal and then a Jon Moxley match in the show’s main event. Let’s get to it. Opening sequence. Casino Battle Royal This is the battle royal with four groups of wrestlers coming in at unspecified intervals before the Joker is the 21st entrant, with the winner facing Jon Moxley later tonight. We’ll start with the first group: Clubs: Eddie Kingston, Darby Allin, Tony Nese, Daniel Garcia, Lance Archer It’s a brawl to start with Archer and Allin being left alone early, though no one is eliminated. Archer shrugs off Allin’s skateboard shot and takes him into the corner so the Diamonds can come in: Diamonds: Ricky Starks, Jake Hager, Re..

WWE Might Have To Make Major Change To Upcoming Pay Per View

January 23, 2022

Update your calendars. While it still has some problems, WWE is still the biggest and most powerful wrestling company in the world. The company runs multiple events every single week with thousands of people coming out to see them. Some of these events are among the biggest in the world, including several stadium shows. Now https://twitter.com/SeanRossSapp/status/1485091044584837120though, WWE might be adjusting one of their major events. According to Sean Ross Sapp, the UFC will be holding an event at the T-Mobil Arena near Las Vegas, Nevada on July 2. This is the same time that WWE is expected to be running Money in the Bank at Allegiant Stadium. As a result, WWE may decide to move their event, though they do have a hold on the stadium for Sunday July 3 as well. WWE has yet to announce any change to their schedule. I'm told there's unlikely to be a conflict as WWE also has a hold on Allegiant Stadium for Sunday, July 3. With the Independence Day holiday on Monday, it look..

AEW Dynamite Live Coverage And Results – November 3, 2021

November 4, 2021

Dynamite Date: November 3, 2021 Location: Cable Dahmer Arena, Independence, Missouri Commentators: Jim Ross, Tony Schiavone, Excalibur We are less than three weeks away from Full Gear and things have been shaken up a bit. Jon Moxley, who was in the semifinals of the #1 contenders tournament, has decided to go to rehab for alcohol issues, which leaves a big hole in the brackets. We should get a replacement tonight though and that could be interesting. Let’s get to it. Opening sequence. Kenny Omega vs. Alan Angels Non-title and commentary brings up Moxley’s issues during Omega’s entrance. Angels goes right after him to start but Omega knocks him back, including some chops. A few shots knock Omega into the corner but he’s back with the Kitaro Crusher. Omega hits a running face shots to take Angels down (think a bulldog but from the front) and the brainbuster onto the knee knocks Angels silly. The V Trigger misses though and Angels grabs a rollup for two. There’s a suicide dive to send..
