Welcome guys to this weeks episode of AEW Rampage, we have 5 matches so lets kick things of with some trios action.
MATCH 1: ORANGE CASSIDY, MARK BRISCOE, TOMOHIRO ISHII VS BUTCHER, TURBO FLOYD, TRUTH MAGNUM
What on earth are we doing with Butcher having him team with The Outrunners. Briscoe and Butcher open things up. Butcher soon tags Turbo Floyd. Ishii tags himself in as he lands a couple of chops on Floyd. Floyd gets chopped by all members of the conglomeration. Ishii demands Floyd slap him hard. Floyd goes for it, but Ishii no-sells as he chops Floyd to the floor. Briscoe tagged back in as he hits a couple of chops of his own. Briscoe follows up with clubs to the back.
Floyd tags Magnum as Butcher sends Briscoe into the barricades, dragging him from the bottom ropes. Briscoe has been isolated and desperately needs a tag. Floyd tries to get a suplex, but Briscoe is fighting it off. Briscoe reverses the attempt and tags Ishii as he hits a German suplex. A big shoulder block follows as he hits a brainbuster on Floyd. Chops to Mangum but Butcher tries coming in. Ishii with a shoulder block as Cassidy is tagged. Cassidy hits a dive between the ropes onto the Outrunners. Butcher hits a lower blow on Briscoe and tries for a powerbomb, but it’s reversed when Cassidy hits the Orange punch. Ishii hits a clothesline on Floyd! Briscoe hits an underhook J-driller on Floyd and this one is all over.
Here is your Winner: The Conglomeration
A decent opener but still cant understand the fall of the Butcher. This is nothing against the Outrunners but it’s a serious joke for The Butcher. Absolutely wasted. Also really not feeling this Conglomeration and that’s hard for me because Ishii is one of my favourite Japanese wrestlers but it’s just a bit silly for me.
MATCH 2: NYLA ROSE VS ERICA LEIGH
Powerslam. Senton. Boot to the jaw. Crossbody. Beast bomb. 1 2 3.
Here is your Winner: Nyla Rose
Absolute squash (wouldn’t be Rampage without a squash) but this is pointless now as Nyla lost to Saraya completely ending her aura. Waste of time.
MATCH 3: NICK WAYNE VS KIP SABIAN
Lockup to begin this one. Wayne with a slap to the face as he runs out of the ring to regroup and mock Sabian. Back inside Sabian with an enziguri and a gutbuster for a near fall. Wayne counters with a couple of right hands to Sabian. The action spills outside as Sabian hits a moonsault. Mother Wayne tells Sabian to back up.
Both men are no-selling suplexes, and half & half’s like it’s nothing as Wayne hits an underhook DDT! Wayne gets a two-count for his efforts! Sabian avoids Wayne’s world as Mother Wayne distracts while Killswitch hits the headbutt. Wayne hits Wayne’s world for the pin.
Here is your Winner: Nick Wayne
Two solid young athletes and got the opportunity to show what they can do. Im so pleased to see Kip getting some TV time as he has been overlooked for way too long. Hoping him losing this match isn’t the end and he doesn’t end up back in catering.
MATCH 4: RUSH & KYLE FLETCHER VS KM & RHETT TITUS
This was just an opportunity for Rush and Fletcher to showcase their moves and nothing more. Who remembers when Rhett Titus was a serious contender on ROH and now he is a victim to Rush and Fletcher. Also really can’t wait for Fletcher to leave the Don Callis family and get back with Ospreay and the Empire
Here is your Winner: Rush & Fletcher
MATCH 5: TOP FLIGHT VS MXM COLLECTION
Mansoor and Dante exchange reversals. Mansoor with a scoop and slam, followed by an elbow drop. Dante with a couple of arm drags and an excellent controlled arm lock. Darius and Madden are tagged as well. Madden with a chop to the chest. Madden follows up with the Final Cut as Mansoor is tagged again. Nice Manhattan drop/hip attack combo for MXM. Top Flight sends MXM outside as they both hit dives from between the ropes. Dante hits Mansoor with a crossbody for a kickout.
Dante with a fireman’s carry as Madden breaks it up. Madden tries for a double chokeslam as Top Flight hits him with a double airplane spin. The duo follows it up with a double dropkick. Mansoor with a swing and a miss as Madden breaks up a pin attempt. Madden hits a spinning slam on Darius. MXM hit Darius with a chokeslam/pin combo as Dante somehow kicked out! Dante with a leaping knee to the face as Top Flight plays pin-pong with Madden! Mansoor with a backslide on Darius for a kick out. Darius hits a brainbuster as Dante hits a body splash and this one is all over.
Here is your Winner: Top Flight
This was actually a solid main event. MXM deliver yet again. New outfits and attitude for Top Flight and it could be good. They are now a fully fledged faction so lets see what AEW do with them. I remember when everyone was in a faction on AEW and this didn’t work out so hopefully top flight get a chance.
Not a bad hour of wrestling with the usual squash matches. MXM delivering yet again. Thanks for joining me this week guys. See you tomorrow for Collision.
