It’s Halloween week, so that meant AEW Fright Night Dynamite
from Edinburg, Texas, LIVE on TBS and HBO Max with some
golden treats up for grabs!
Samoa Joe will be challenging “Hangman” Adam Page for the
AEW World Championship at AEW Full Gear (presented by DC) on
November 22 after he won the Fright Night 4-Way Fight by
submitting HOOK, leaving both Bobby Lashley and Ricochet out
of the decision. However, Page would get the last laugh on
Joe in the end on this night!
In the other Fright Night 4-Way Fight, FTR were victorious
over JetSpeed, Jurassic Express and the Young Bucks to earn
their chance at the AEW World Tag Team Champions, Brodido,
at Full Gear. Meanwhile, after Jon Moxley and Kyle O’Reilly
fought to a double countout, the Death Riders and the
Conglomeration nearly had another big brawl. So after plenty
of encouragement from Darby Allin and Mark Briscoe, Orange
Cassidy made the challenge for Blood and Guts in two weeks!
The AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship Tournament
kicked off as well, as Sisters of Sin defeated Jamie Hayter
and Queen Aminata to advance to the semifinals, and the Don
Callis Family Summit only fanned the flames of the rising
issues between AEW United Champion “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika
Okada and IWGP World Heavyweight Champion “The Alpha”
Konosuke Takeshita. All that and more was live on Dynamite
tonight!
Here's everything that happened on AEW Dynamite for October
29, 2025, including your full results and match recaps.
AEW Dynamite Recap Tonight for Edinburg
Trick or Treat Tornado Tag Match: Darby Allin & Orange
Cassidy def. Wheeler Yuta & Daniel Garcia of the Death
Riders
We began our night with the Trick or Treat Tornado Tag, and
because it was anything goes, Bryan Danielson was especially
excited on commentary: “The awesome thing about this match
is that Wheeler Yuta can’t tag out, so we can see him get
punched in the face the entire time!”
Cassidy and Allin tried to jump-start things, but the Death
Riders quickly turned things around and choked Allin and
Cassidy, which was completely legal. They both went for
piledrivers, but Allin and Cassidy backdropped out. Everyone
spilled to the floor, where Yuta went under the ring and
pulled out … his middle finger to the crowd! Allin took
advantage and cracked Yuta in the back with a chair. He sat
Yuta in the chair and returned to the ring to gain a head of
steam so that he could fly through Yuta on the floor!
On the other side of the ring, Garcia and Cassidy battled it
out until Cassidy was whipped into the crowd. He took a
casual jog to reset himself, but was totally blindsided by
Yuta from the other side! Garcia took a second to laugh at
Cassidy’s misfortune before heading into the crowd to help
Yuta with Cassidy. Just when OC was in seemingly dire
straits, Allin appeared from the mezzanine with a Coffin
Drop out of nowhere!
Yuta turned things around on Cassidy when he dropped him
neck-first across the guardrail at a dangerous angle. Back
in the ring, Allin had Garcia down and wanted another Coffin
Drop, but Yuta took his legs out from the top rope, which
sent Allin crashing to the floor! He became the sole focus
of the Death Riders, including a brutal double surfboard
launch into the top turnbuckle.
Garcia and Yuta went outside for a table, but Cassidy
appeared back in the ring with his hands in his pockets.
They came after him, so he took them down with a dropkick
and sprang to his feet. He turned his attention to Garcia
and nailed him with a springboard DDT. Yuta thought he could
work his way out of OC’s textbook offense, but Cassidy still
managed to lull Yuta into a tornado DDT! Garcia attacked
from behind, so OC went for a Stundog Millionaire, which
Garcia blocked and transitioned into a sleeper! He
transitioned again into a guillotine and rolled to the
outside so he could put Cassidy on a table for Yuta to come
off the top with a splash!
Back in the ring, Allin had a skateboard, and Garcia invited
him to use it, so Allin slipped it to Garcia and told him to
use it! When Garcia went for it, Allin charged with a Code
Red for a nearfall! Allin went to the top for another Coffin
Drop, but was once again cut off by Yuta, who trapped him in
the tree of woe. Yuta stomped Allin’s lower regions until OC
came in to cut him off. That allowed Allin to recover and
get some revenge on Yuta with a low blow! Cassidy came off
the top with a diving DDT on Yuta, and Allin immediately
followed with a Coffin Drop. 1-2-Garcia made the save!
Garcia grabbed Allin in a choke from the apron, but OC broke
it up with an Orange Punch. Cassidy kept the offense going
with a Sole Food to Yuta. Cassidy dove over Yuta on the
apron to send Garcia crashing through a table leaned against
the guardrail! Back in the ring, Allin snatched Yuta in a
Scorpion Death Lock to get the tap out! Allin and Cassidy
win! They celebrated in the ring with Cassidy throwing
treats to the crowd!
HOOK Knows What This Opportunity Means
As HOOK entered the building, he spoke about tonight’s
Fright Night 4-Way Fight for a shot at the AEW World
Champion, “Hangman” Page, at Full Gear. “Obviously, I’m the
underdog in this match tonight. See, between Bobby Lashley,
Ricochet and Samoa Joe, I’ll be out there with three highly
decorated veterans. So sure, I’ll have my hands full, but I
wouldn't want it any other way. You see, my main goal is to
pull out the win and earn a shot at the AEW Championship.
But Joe, I’ll be doing my best personally to make sure that
you do not advance tonight. You see, you decided to show the
world who you really are, but I already knew.”
Don Callis Takes Care of the Young Bucks
Renee Paquette was backstage with Don Callis to get his
comments on tonight’s Don Callis Family Summit. He didn’t
say much before seeing the Young Bucks and calling them
over. Matt and Nick Jackson slunked over to join them.
Callis said it was criminal what the company was doing to
them, and while they rebuffed an offer to join The Family in
the past, that was before so much was working against them
to make them look like idiots. “I think, just think about
it, maybe it would help you to have a Family to have your
back. Just don’t answer. Let me show you what I can do!”
Callis asked for the truck to cue a special entrance he had
made for the Bucks, so they began their walk to the ring,
passing three unknown figures in costumes that included an
inflatable cow and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. The Bucks'
EVP entrance music and video played as they cautiously made
their way up the ramp. Callis appeared on the video board to
give them a personalized entrance, which concluded with a
massive pyro display that even spooked Matt and Nick.
Fright Night 4-Way Fight No. 1 Contenders Tag Team Match:
FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) def. Jet Speed
(“Speedball” Mike Bailey and “The Jet” Kevin Knight), Young
Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) and Jurassic Express
(“Jungle” Jack Perry and Luchasaurus)
With no outside interference allowed, Big Stoke couldn’t do
any damage from the outside, so he joined the commentary
desk. After being on the same winning side of the $400K All-
Star 8-Man Tag Match this past Saturday on Collision, Perry
and Speedball shook hands as opponents to get this huge
match underway. Harwood decided to ruin that and tagged
Perry. Harwood lit up Bailey with chops and punches, but
Bailey fired back with unrelenting kicks in the ropes that
warranted a five-count from referee Rick Knox. Bailey
finished Harwood off with a kick to the face, so Perry was
able to tag back in, and we were back to the original
pairing.
Perry and Bailey went back and forth to a stalemate, so
Luchasaurus made a blind tag to nail Bailey with a hip
toss/dropkick combo. Knight came flying in with a dropkick
to Luchasaurus, but Perry fought back with a hurricanrana to
Knight. He escaped Speedball’s hurricanrana attempt with a
cartwheel, and both went for a dropkick to put all four men
on the mat. Both members of JetSpeed and Jurassic Express
sprang to their feet at the same time, so the Bucks and FTR
attacked them from behind. All four tried to gang up on
Luchasauraus, but he fought all of them off until goozling
both Matt and Nick – but Wheeler and Harwood saved them with
superkicks?!?
The Bucks swept the legs of Luchasaurus and went back to
their corner. Harwood tagged in to square off with Knight,
who quickly wound up in the Bucks' corner for a triple team
that included Wheeler. Harwood held Knight across the middle
rope so Nick could hit a swanton in yet another example of
the long-time rivals using each others’ offense. FTR went
for a Shatter Machine on Knight, but he escaped to make a
desperation tag to Perry.
He fought FTR off with a double hurricanrana to send them to
the outside, but when he tried to follow with a somersault
dive, Harwood and Wheeler caught him and sent him face-first
into the announce desk! Luchasaurus clobbered Harwood and
had Wheeler by the throat until Jackson ran down the apron
with a kick to stop him, and Matt followed with a dropkick
through the ropes. Nick was going to dive over Matt, but
just like we saw on Collision, Wheeler stopped them so he
could nail the dive instead. So Matt kept the ropes down for
Wheeler, but this time he dropkicked the defenseless Jackson
to the floor. Nick went running at Wheeler and was
backdropped onto his brother.
Wheeler turned right into machine gun kicks from Speedball
and bailed to the floor, so Bailey followed with a huge
dive! Knight climbed to the top, but was stopped by a Dax
right hand. Harwood superplexed Knight onto everyone on the
floor!
Perry settled in as the legal man and did everything he
could to fight off the Bucks before making the necessary tag
to Luchasaurus, who took out everybody! He took a tour
around the ring with heavy shots for Harwood, Wheeler, and
both Jacksons in each corner. The Bucks and FTR tried to
escape, but he ran through all four men once again!
Luchasaurus soaked in the cheers on the second rope and then
aided Perry in hitting a hurricanrana over the top to send
Speedball crashing from the apron to Knight on the floor!
Luchasaurus double-chokeslammed FTR, then chokeslammed Matt,
then flipped Nick head-over-heels with another chokeslam
onto his brother. Luchasaurus immediately followed with a
standing moonsault onto Matt while Perry jumped over him for
a Canadian Destroyer on Nick! Luchasaurus finally went for
the cover, but Matt kicked out at two! A very close call
there!
Perry called for Countdown to Extinction, but was knocked
from the ring by Harwood. Matt escaped and tried to attack
Knight, who low-bridged Matt to the floor. Knight came in to
clobber Luchasaurus with forearms, but Luchasaurus put him
down with a big headbutt. With Knight on Luchasaurus’
shoulders, Perry was aided to the top rope by his partner,
but stopped by Bailey, who put Perry on his shoulders!
Knight escaped from Luchasaurus to hit him with a pendulum
DDT and then somehow skied high enough to dropkick Perry
from Speedball’s shoulders onto FTR and the Bucks on the
outside!
With each member of JetSpeed ready to springboard from
opposite sides of the ring onto Luchasaurus, Speedball
called an audible in midair and moonsaulted onto FTR and the
Bucks. At the same time, Knight hit a splash on Luchasaurus
in the ring! Luchasaurus kicked out at two with no one there
to save him!
Knight went to the top rope and jumped over the now standing
Luchasaurus, who was blind tagged by Nick Jackson, but still
managed to flatten Knight. Matt saved Nick from a chokeslam,
and they dropped Luchasaurus to his knee with superkicks.
Perry tried to launch himself off Luchasaurus, but flew
right into another pair of superkicks. Speedball matrixed
his way out of another pair of superkicks and nailed Nick
with a thrust kick and Matt with a leg sweep. However, he
missed shooting star knees and ate superkicks from the
Bucks. FTR ran into their own superkicks from the Bucks
before they hit the Shatter Machine on Wheeler! Knight came
flying off the top into two more superkicks, and the Bucks
followed with the BTE Trigger, but Knight kicked out just in
time! What resilience by The Jet!
As the Bucks tried to figure out what to do next, Harwood
tagged Nick just as he was springboarding to the top, but
Luchasaurus snatched Nick by the throat and slammed him to
the mat. Luchasaurus knocked Matt to the outside and
followed him with a moonsault from the apron! Bailey hit one
of his own onto Wheeler and Luchasaurus on the floor!
Back in the ring, Knight got to the top and nailed Perry
with a massive UFO Splash, but FTR slid in to hit the
Shatter Machine on Knight for the win, as Stoke squealed in
delight on commentary! It’ll be FTR challenging Brodido for
the AEW World Tag Team Championships on November 22 at Full
Gear!
Hangman Page Makes It Clear to Samoa Joe
On Collision this past weekend, AEW World Champion “Hangman”
Adam Page made it clear to Samoa Joe and The Opps that it
was he who was doing the hunting.
The Don Callis Family Summit Doesn’t Help the Tension
Don Callis was flanked by the members of the Don Callis
Family on the way to the ring, which was set up with tables
and a red carpet. Notable by his absence was the IWGP World
Heavyweight Champion, “The Alpha” Konosuke Takeshita.
Callis began, “I have something important to say. Welcome to
the Don Callis Family Summit! I’ve convened this summit
because there’s been a lot of speculation about problems in
the Family between Okada and Takeshita. And I’m here to
dispel that myth and also to address four very important
questions. Rocky?”
And with that, Callis turned things over to Rocky Romero,
who said, “Thank you, Don. The first question is who? Who is
The Don Callis Family? And the answer is simple. We are the
largest, most dominant faction in all of professional
wrestling today. Now, we all couldn’t be here in person due
to injuries, and poor Takeshita, due to travel issues. But,
we can all be here in spirit. My brothers, my fearless
leader, I give a true masterpiece. I call this simply, ‘La
Familia’ Behold!”
Romero dropped a sheet to reveal a painting of Callis
standing in front of every member of The Don Callis Family,
all uniquely dressed to provide imagery that cannot be
explained with the written word.
Josh Alexander spoke next, “Well Don, the second question is
what? And gentlemen, I mean what the Don Callis Family is
all about. If I could direct you to the screen.”
A video package highlighting the destruction and success of
the Don Callis Family was shown, earning boos from the
crowd, but a round of applause from The Family.
Callis then introduced TNT Champion “The Protostar” Kyle
Fletcher, who had to pause before speaking due to the
crowd’s less-than-favorable reception.
Finally, Fletcher spoke, “The third very important question
to be answered is why? Why does the Don Callis Family do
what they do? And let me remind you of a little oath we took
before joining this Family.”
Fletcher pulled out a piece of paper from his jacket and
read, “I, insert name, of my own free will, do hereby and
hereon solemnly swear that I will always conceal, never
reveal any secrets of the Don Callis Family. I promise to
obey the laws of the Family and to aid and assist a brother
in distress, regardless of potential injury to myself or
others. I further promise to keep this my obligation sacred
and not to violate…”
The music of Takeshita interrupted Fletcher, and the IWGP
World Heavyweight Champion made his way to the ring, looking
none too pleased.
Callis immediately went over to Takeshita and said, “Hey,
you made it!” But when he tried to calm Takeshita down with
a hand on his shoulder, Takeshita took the hand away, which
prompted Okada to stand up and face off with Takeshita.
Callis stood between the two and said, “I can see there’s
still a little tension brewing here. I can see that.
Takeshita, you need to understand something. I named you
‘The Alpha’ but you need to understand that this is an
entire family of alphas. And when you have an entire family
of alphas, there’s gonna be a little bit of push and pull, a
little back and forth. That’s normal. It’s to be expected.
In fact, it’s to be desired. But at the end of the day, this
is a family. Now, it brings me to the final question.
“How does the Don Callis Family succeed? It’s very simple,
we succeed by listening to what I want! There’s no I in
team, but there is an I in family. And I decide what happens
here! Now, Take, I know you and I built this family. You
were my first. We built this family, you and I, on the ashes
of Kenny Omega’s career. But because I decide what happens,
while you were first in, if I decide so, you will also be
the last out. So, what I need right now, is I need you, and
our IWGP Championship, I need you to put your ego aside and
shake Okada’s hand.”
The crowd disagreed and expressed that quite vehemently, so
Callis yelled out, “Don’t listen to these morons. Don’t
listen to these idiots! SHAKE HIS HAND, DAMNIT!”
Takeshita still did not move, so Callis pleaded with him,
“Takeshita-san, this is not about ego. This is about your
honor. This is about your honor as a wrestler and a member
of this Family. So I’m asking you, for me, for me, please
shake Okada’s hand for me.”
As the crowd chanted “No,” Takeshita slowly put his hand out
to shake Okada’s, but when Okada brought his hand up, he
continued to raise it into Takeshita’s face and gave him the
finger! Takeshita was incensed and started loosening his
shirt to fight as the Family scurried to get in between the
two. Okada laughed and smiled as Fletcher tried to calm the
still-angry Takeshita down.
Callis spoke again, “OK, OK. Maybe a handshake isn’t the
answer here. Maybe I’ll show you both how to work together.
So this Saturday, you two will team up in a tag match on
Collision and show me and the world that you can work like a
family!”
Tensions were still high, so Callis took some extra time to
get Takeshita out of the ring while Okada was kept away from
him.
Olympia Gets Mercedes Moné on Collision!
After defeating Taya Valkyrie on last week’s Collision,
Olympia called out Mercedes Moné for a shot at the CMLL
World Women’s Championship. That match will happen this
Saturday on Collision!
Kris Statlander Puts The CEO on Notice
After crashing last week’s celebration for Mercedes Moné,
AEW World Champion Kris Statlander was with Renee Paquette
to explain her actions. “Mercedes, you’re upset. You’re
embarrassed. That was really embarrassing. But on Collision,
you’re defending your CMLL World Women’s Title against
Olympia, and I will be there in person to support you.”
Statlander went to leave, but came back and added, “But
you’re here tonight. I’m here tonight. So if there’s
anything you want to say to my face, I’m not going anywhere.
And if you have trouble looking for me, I’ll be the one
holding the title you don’t have, the AEW Women’s World
Championship! So what are you waiting for?”
Jon Moxley vs. Kyle O’Reilly Ends in a Double Countout
After Moxley got himself disqualified last week, both men
wanted this rematch, and so it was made. O’Reilly got Moxley
in an armbar within the first minute, but Moxley escaped and
flipped O’Reilly off out of anger. The two traded chops and
kicks until Moxley stopped it with a bite to the head!
O’Reilly came charging, but Moxley sent him to the outside.
Moxley threw him back in and got caught in a kneebar, so he
took the match back to the outside and dropped O’Reilly with
a neckbreaker on the apron!
Mox snatched O’Reilly in a full Nelson and then threw
O’Reilly face-first into the steel steps. Back in the ring,
Moxley missed a charge in the corner, which allowed O’Reilly
to wrench Mox with a dragon screw. In what can only be
described as a defensive piledriver, Moxley nearly put
O’Reilly away. Still, he kicked out at two, and then Moxley
rolled it into submission, accentuating it with an eyerake.
The two fought back to their feet, and O’Reilly won the
striking battle, which sent Mox to the mat desperately
trying to fight off an armbar.
O’Reilly quickly transitioned into an ankle lock, so Moxley
dropped to his knees. O’Reilly answered by stomping on the
leg and dropping Mox with a knee strike to the back for a
two count. O’Reilly and Mox traded capture knees until Mox
went for a Gotch-style piledriver, but O’Reilly caught him
in a triangle with nowhere to go in the middle of the ring.
O’Reilly let the hold go to deliver a precise PK, and Marina
Shafir was beside herself on the outside. O’Reilly charged
Mox, but Mox answered with a clothesline, and both men were
down!
Moxley woke up with a big shot to O’Reilly and tried to
powerwalk some energy back into himself, which allowed
O’Reilly to snatch him in another ankle lock, very similar
to last week. Mox dove to the ropes to force the break and
went to the outside, but O’Reilly immediately followed with
a dive and captured Mox in another triangle! Moxley stomped
his way free, but was leg-whipped into the guardrail after
charging O’Reilly. O’Reilly went to the apron for a flying
knee, but Shafir stepped in the way, so O’Reilly landed on
his feet. Moxley took advantage of the distraction to set up
a chair for the Paradigm Shift, but O’Reilly grabbed him in
a guillotine choke on the way down! While O’Reilly had the
hold locked in, referee Aubrey Edwards counted to 10, and we
had a double countout!
O’Reilly got in the ring to plead his case, but he didn’t
have much of a chance because Shafir decked the referee with
a massive forearm! Claudio Castagnoli blindsided O’Reilly,
and a chair was brought into the ring, until Roderick Strong
stopped the attack! Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia stomped
on Strong until Mark Briscoe, Darby Allin, and Orange
Cassidy ran off the Death Riders!
Allin had something to say and grabbed the mic! “Where are
you running? Let’s end this right here! For a year and a
half, you said everyone hasn’t suffered enough. Trust me,
I’ve suffered plenty. It’s you that hasn’t suffered enough.
But I’m gonna give you the chance to suffer some more.”
He passed the mic to Briscoe who said, “Darby, my good man,
that’s exactly what I’m talkin’ about! Because the Death
Riders here wanna walk around like they all bad, like they
all hard. Well, I don’t see nothing but some fake-ass tough
guys! Because every time it’s time to throw down, y’all sure
do like to skidaddle! So, me and my crew have come up with
the perfect solution to this issue and I’m gonna let my main
man with the gameplan, Orange Cassidy, tell y’all what we
got planned.”
After Cassidy balked, Briscoe added, “OC, would you please
tell them what we’ve been talkin’ about?”
Finally, Cassidy said it, “Uhhhhh, Blood and Guts.”
The crowd went wild with the challenge of Blood and Guts
just two weeks away on November 12 in Greensboro, North
Carolina!
Mercedes Moné and Kris Statlander Brawl
We caught up with a brawl between Mercedes Mone and Kris
Statlander that had already begun somewhere in the back.
Moné brought Statlander out to the top of the ramp, but
Statlander turned it around and tossed Moné onto the apron
face-first!
As Statlander went to inflict more damage in the ring, the
ROH Women’s World Champion and Moné’s partner in the AEW
Women’s World Tag Team Championship Tournament, Athena,
attacked her from behind and threw Statlander into the steel
steps. Moné got Statlander in the ring for a Backstabber,
and Athena followed with the O-Face! Moné put Statlander in
the Statement Maker, but Willow Nightingale and Harley
Cameron ran out to make the save! Those two will face Moné
and Athena in the tournament next week on Dynamite!
AEW Women’s World Championship Tournament Quarterfinals:
Sisters of Sin (Skye Blue and Julia Hart) def. Jamie Hayter
& Queen Aminata
Before the tournament officially began, we learned that due
to an injury suffered last week, Penelope Ford is likely out
of action and unable to team with Megan Bayne. More to come
on that situation.
Aminata and Hart opened the tournament and this match, but
Aminata quickly turned a charging Hart into tandem offense
with Hayter. Blue tagged in soon after and wound up eating
some Chocolate Kisses. Aminata dropped Blue with a suplex,
so Hayter came in and did the same. Aminata tagged back in
for another suplex and laughed as Hayter tagged back in for
another suplex. This time Hayter covered, but only got a
two. Hart tried to stop a double suplex, but wound up
getting suplexed as well. Hayter hit an overhead throw on
Blue for another two count. Hart made a blind tag, which
Hayter missed, allowing Sisters of Sin to gain control with
a flapjack. Hart repeatedly slammed Hayter’s head into the
mat, and the tide has officially turned in this match.
Hart hit her ropewalk arm-wringer strike on Hayter, but when
Blue came in for a double suplex, Hayter reversed it and
took them both down. She made the tag to a fresh Aminata,
who unleashed on Blue with kicks and a meteor, followed by a
big boot in the corner. Blue kicked out, so Aminata knocked
Hart off the apron while Hayter nailed Blue with a dropkick
from the turnbuckles. Aminata hit a snap neckbreaker on
Blue, and Hayter followed with a lariat, but Hart was there
for the save at one. All four women slugged it out in the
middle with Hayter and Aminata initially winning the battle
with a pair of German suplexes, but Hart and Blue came back
with superkicks. So Aminata and Hart took them down with
flying clotheslines.
Aminata tagged in and ate some shots from Blue before
locking in a submission, which Hart quickly broke up. On the
outside of the ring, Theka came from underneath the ring to
spear Hayter, which the referee never saw! Back in the ring,
Sisters of Sin finished Aminata off with a combo
spinebuster/slam to get the victory and advance to the
semifinals of the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship
Tournament!
Megan Bayne Has a Dangerous New Partner
Tony Schiavone was with Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford to get
an update on their tournament status. Ford admitted she tore
her UCL in her right arm, which means she’s out indefinitely
and not cleared to compete. When Bayne was asked what this
means for her in the tournament, she responded by saying if
there’s any woman who wants to make history and build an
empire, they should step forward and Bayne will decide who’s
ready to stand beside a god.
And that’s exactly what Marina Shafir did! “Don’t worry, I’m
listening,” said Shafir before Jon Moxley appeared! “These
two? Look out!” Mox commented. Shafir and Bayne clasped
pinkies, and it looks like Bayne has a new teammate!
Fright Night 4-Way Fight No. 1 Contenders Match for the AEW
World Championship: Samoa Joe def. HOOK, Bobby Lashley &
Ricochet
Empty heading
We began things with Samoa Joe and HOOK trying to attack
Lashley, but Joe pushed HOOK away, which allowed Lashley to
recover and take Joe out on the floor. Ricochet tried to
pair off with HOOK, but backed right into Lashley. Lashley
and Hook bounced Ricochet around the ring, but Lashley had
to pull HOOK off a pin attempt. Those two faced off, and
while Lashley tried to keep his concentration on Ricochet,
HOOK went right after Lashley, so Lashley sent HOOK to the
floor and followed with an ura-nge on the apron. Ricochet
immediately dove onto Lashley, but Joe was right behind and
took everyone out!
Joe isolated HOOK in the ring and fought off Lashley from
interfering, so he could drop HOOK with a huge powerslam,
but Ricochet was there to break up the pin. Joe walked away
from a Ricochet leap from the top and peppered the Demand
member with shots until Lashley got back in the ring. The
crowd came alive when Joe and Lashley faced off, as they
traded shots until Lashley put Joe down with a spinebuster!
Ricochet tried to attack, but Lashley caught him in midair
and hit a Dominator, but HOOK was in to break that pin up!
Lashley caught HOOK on his shoulder, but HOOK sent Lashley
into a waiting lariat from Samoa Joe. HOOK followed by
clotheslining Lashley over the top, leaving him alone with
Joe again. HOOK hit a big throw on Joe to send him to the
outside, and celebrated too long, leaving Ricochet to strike
with a springboard. Ricochet flipped onto Lashley on the
floor, but landed on his feet, so he got right back in the
ring and dove onto Joe on the other side! Ricochet scaled
the ropes and hit a shooting star press onto HOOK, but HOOK
kicked out!
“THIS IS AWESOME!”
HOOK turned a Spirit Gun attempt into REDRUM on Ricochet,
but Joe broke it up with a senton. Joe had HOOK up for a
muscle-buster, but never saw Lashley, who cut Joe down with
a spear! Lashley went for the cover on Joe, but Ricochet
broke it up with a 450 splash from the top! Ricochet tried
for Vertigo on HOOK, but he reversed it into a small package
for a two count.
HOOK clotheslined Ricochet over the top and sent Lashley
over with a low bridge. When Lashley tried to get back in,
Ricochet hit him in the back with a chair! Back in the ring,
Joe captured HOOK in the Coquina Clutch with HOOK tapping
just as Lashley got on the apron to break it up! Joe gets
“Hangman” Adam Page for the AEW World Title at Full Gear!
Hangman Page Surprises Samoa Joe During AEW World
Championship Contract Signing
Tony Schiavone joined Samoa Joe, Katsuyori Shibata and
Powerhouse Hobbs in the ring for a contract signing and
called out the crew that had been in costume all night
around the arena.
Joe wanted to ensure it was a safe environment to sign the
contract, so he had Hobbs and Shibata remove the costumed
crew. They isolated the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, thinking
it was Page, but it wasn’t, so they took the extra out from
the ring, and Joe signed the contract.
Joe then demanded a mic and said Hangman’s days were
numbered, before we heard Schiavone say the Full Gear match
was official and offered a toast to Joe, as drinks were
brought in the ring. The voice of Schiavone said, “To All
Elite Wrestling, where the best wrestle! To Full Gear,
presented by DC, live on November 22nd, and to the AEW Men’s
World Champion, Hangman Adam Page, the living embodiment of
cowboy shit!”
Just then, the voice of Schiavone changed to Page, as he
appeared behind Joe in a Schiavone costume to say, “Long may
he reign!”
Page took out Hobbs, and Shibata followed by Joe, and then
revealed himself as the crowd went wild! Page hit Joe with a
Buckshot and unloaded on him in the ring! Officials came out
to get Page off Joe, as the night came to a close!
