AEW

Written by Ian Clark

Tonight, Tony Khan makes another big announcement! I know, I know, it's hard to get excited about that teaser when he makes big announcements every other week. But when so many of them actually turn out to be pretty kickass, maybe getting our hopes up again is justified. What will it be? Another big signing? A new title? The rumoured AEW/NJPW supershow?

I really love how they made their opponents shine.

All five active members of The Elite are backstage. Kyle says the Bucks aren't their usual flamboyant selves, but neither are reDRagon, and they all need to turn it around. Adam Cole says as a five-man team they can't be stopped. He proposes a ten-man open challenge tag for next week.

They show a package of Samoa Joe's troubles with Jay Lethal and co.

Tony Schiavone brings out Tony Khan for his big announcement.

TK: "Thank you very much! Thank you very much! We have a huge announcement for you here tonight, thank you very much! Ladies and gentlemen, the president of New Japan Pro Wrestling!"

The NJPW president comes out.

Adam Cole comes on from backstage. "Whoa, whoa, there's only one star who should make an announcement this calibur. I was one of the biggest stars to ever wrestle in Japan, and this just wouldn't be the same without me. So on June 26th, in Chicago, New Japan and AEW present Forbidden Door. The best of both promotions. And this Friday on Rampage, a little preview, as I will be wrestling in an Owen Hart qualifier against Ishii. And speaking of surprises, I have a friend who would love to say something right now."

Jay White comes out. "Thank you for the introduction, Adam, very kind. It's fitting that I should be out here for this, because the last time New Japan had a cross-promotional show of this size, I single-handedly sold out Madison Square Garden! So let me make this clear: it's not about New Japan Pro Wrestling. It's not about AEW. No, no, no, this is about the Undisputed Elite, and Bullet Club! Because it's still our era!"

Backstage, the Baddie Section discuss how badly Jade Cargill is going to beat Marina Shafir.

Match Three: The Butcher vs. Wardlow

MJF's music hits before Wardlow comes out, and he comes from the skybox and says he doesn't care about their boos because he's seen what makes them cheer. He says Wardlow is a nobody, so he gets no music. Wardlow comes out still in handcuffs. The handcuffs are removed before the match begins.

Wardlow with a series of tackles, none of them take Butcher off his feet, trading punches, Butcher bites Wardlow's head, whip, misses a clothesline, Wardlow with tackles, Butcher grabs a chair, Wardlow shoves him into the barricade, Butcher tosses him into the barricade and apron alternately, then into the ring post, blocked, Wardlow tosses Butcher into the ring post, powerbomb, blocked, Butcher drives Wardlow into the apron, back suplex onto the apron, clothesline, powerbomb for a zero count, Wardlow with a boot to the gut, powerbomb, another, another, a fourth for three.

Winner: Wardlow

Wardlow leaves in handcuffs, but defiant.

Eddie Kingston hypes up his match with Danny Garcia, everyone from either team banned from the building, on Rampage. He says everything he's going to do to Garcia, he'll eventually do to Jericho.

Winner: Kyle O'Reilly

Backstage, MJF vows there's more money to spend on humbling Wardlow. He calls himself a snake: he'll take down any prey, no matter how big or bad, with one bite. He then hands a stack of cash to another snake: Jake Roberts. He starts saying real men chase money, but Lance Archer slaps the envelope out of his hand and says he doesn't need money to fight Wardlow.

Winner: Hook

Danhausen slides in the ring and challenges Hook to a match. Hook just shoulder checks him and walks off.

Backstage, Frankie Kazarian starts to challenge Sammy Guevara, but Scorpio Sky walks in, apologizes for interrupting, and says he's realized he needs to thank Frankie for all he's done for him. He says he needs to ask for just one more favour: delay his challenge until Sky can get his shot. Frankie agrees.

Thunder Rosa cuts a promo celebrating beating Nyla Rose at Battle of the Belts. She says she needs to follow up on her success.

Sammy and Tay are in the ring.

Sammy: "I love this. I feel on top of the world, right where I should be, as TNT Champion for a third time. And with you, the love of my life. I love you. And I love you, I love each and every one of you that cheer for us and show us support. I will give you my everything forever, because you deserve it. Now, as for the rest of you, and I hear it, you turned your backs on us your first chance, and why? Because my girlfriend is hotter than yours? You got one option and one option only: be mad."

Scorpio Sky comes out: "That's how it's going to be? Screw us, screw all the fans, screw everyone who made you famous by watching your stupid blogs?"

Sammy: "It's--"

Page: "Oh, shut the hell up, Sammy! There's not a single person in this arena who came to see you run your ugly face! The only reason we're not kicking your ass in the ring right now is because Dynamite Dan said this is business."

Dan: "My grandfather said youth is wasted on the young, because you have the ability to do whatever you want, but lack the judgment to make the right choices. You're the perfect example of that, you risk it all in the ring, but you can't stop acting like some high school douchebag who can't keep his tongue out of his girlfriend's mouth. So either give Sky his rematch, or I'll send these two men into the ring to give you the kind of beating your girlfriend only dreams of."

Sammy: "I don't care about you or your dead grandfather, but we want the same thing, a rematch. I'll give you the rematch next week, but only if you give us the mixed tag match."

Dan: "Done."

Sammy: "Next week, ladder match!"

In a dark room, the House of Black promise Icarus will be punished for flying too close to the sun.

Winner: Britt Baker

Britt: "Pittsburgh! Finally you have a woman in the ring with a mic who knows how to use it. The past few weeks have proven one thing: the women's division is a disaster without me. You have Ruby Soho, the runaway who needs to run away rather than look like the red headed rascal. Toni Storm, who has my girl Jamie Hayter in the first round. If you thought being kicked in the face was bad, you're going to want to quit yet another company. Then you have Jade Cargill, who called Pittsburgh ugly. The only people here who care about her are the ones she bought tickets for. Her newest Baddie, Red Velvet. I don't know what's worse, getting your ass kicked by me all last year or being a Baddie. And then you have the future Owen Hart trophy winner, Dr. Britt Baker, DMD.

Serena Deeb and Hikaru Shida vow to end their rivalry once and for all in a Philly Street Fight next week.
