Jon Moxley vs. Dante Martin

Jericho and Regal bicker back-and-forth on commentary. Jericho takes offense to a remark from Regal about “trout-slapping” after checking Google for the definition. Aside from that, Mox slowly works over the arm of Martin, isolating the limb and focusing his early attack on it.

The two start trading chops. Moxley launches Martin into the corner as we head to a mid-match commercial break. When we return from the break, we see Mox lock Martin in a Texas Cloverleaf. Martin ends up countering his way out.

Mox maintains control, hitting the ropes and blasting Martin with a “Regal Knee” for a close near fall. Martin starts to use his speed to get in the fight. He hits a big cross body splash and connects with a huge dive onto Mox out on the floor.

We see Mox slap a choke on Martin, who uses his feet on the turnbuckles in the corner to float over. He hits a big high spot that pops the crowd, but only gets a two count. Mox looks for the Paradigm Shift, but Martin avoids it.

Mox blasts Martin with a lariat, not a clothesline, and follows up with the Anvil elbows. He locks in a choke and gets the tap. Mox wins.

Winner: Jon Moxley


Backstage: Keith Lee & Swerve Strickland, Ricky Starks & Powerhouse Hobbs

Tony Schiavone is standing by with Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee. Lee asks Strickland why he shouldn’t beat his ass right now for turning on him in the Casino Battle Royale. He says it wasn’t a tag match and that Lee would have eliminated him when he got the chance, too. Starks and Hobbs come in and Starks says they call themselves the best tag team, but they have yet to beat them, so they should marinate on that.


Video Promos: House of Black, Death Triangle

Malakai Black and Penta Oscuro cut promos on each other ahead of their match on Dynamite.


Trios Match
Max Caster & Gunn Club vs. Leon Ruff & Bear Country

We return from the break to a vignette looking at the rivalry between The House of Black and Death Triangle. We then shoot inside the arena where Max Caster raps his team to the ring with a freestyle diss that includes an NDA reference.

It is Max Caster and the ass-boys, The Gunn Club, taking on Bear Country and Leon Ruff — collectively known as Ruffin It. This turned out to be a squash match, with The Gunn Club and Max Caster picking up the easy win with the Mic Drop by Caster on Ruff.

Winners: Max Caster & The Gunn Club


Backstage: Hook & Danhausen

We shoot to Lexy Nair backstage with Hook. She brings up his match next week against a NJPW LA dojo wrestler and says that’s exciting, but Hook says nothing. She asks if anything excites him. He says nothing. Danhausen comes in and hypes up the match next week and says he and Hook will eviscerate the “dojo masters or whatever.” Hook says, “I got this.”


TBS Championship
Jade Cargill (c) vs. Willow Nightingale

Stokely Hathaway joins the crew on special guest commentary for this title showdown. The bell sounds and we’re off-and-running with this one. Jericho tells Stokely he is making Jade Cargill his Sports Entertainer of the Week winner.

Early action sees Cargill dominating, but Willow staying competitive throughout. Jade knocks her out to the floor, where Kiera Hogan runs over and gets in some cheap shots as we head to a mid-match commercial break.

We return from the break to Willow hitting a cannonball in the corner on Cargill, but moments later we see her hit her finisher, Jaded for the victory.

Winner and STILL TBS Women’s Champion: Jade Cargill

After the match, Kiera Hogan hits the ring for a post-match attack.

Athena hits the ring to make the save. Jade hits her with a punt kick. She looks for the Jaded on her but Kris Statlander runs out to make the save and slaps Stokely in the head on the way to the ring.


Backstage: Jay Lethal, Sonjay Dutt, Satnam Singh

Backstage, Lethal and Dutt cut a promo hyping up Satnam Singh after his in-ring debut last week.


Darby Allin vs. Bobby Fish

Mark Henry is standing by with the competitors for our scheduled main event of the show. Darby Allin speaks first, talking about how Kyle O’Reilly took out his best friend, Sting, so he’s going to do the same to him tonight and take out O’Reilly best friend, Bobby Fish. We get a promise for a broken leg by the end of the match and then “The World’s Strongest Man” has decided that there’s been enough talk. It’s time for tonight’s main event.

In the ring, we see Allin flip over Fish on the floor, running him into the barricade in the process. He rolls back in the ring and then leapfrogs back out, splashing onto Fish on the way down.

Darby continues to use his body as a weapon, as he launches himself onto Fish after building up a head of steam in the ring for a wicked tope suicida.

After a pair of dragon cork-screws to Allin on the floor, we see Fish in a commanding offensive lead as we head into a mid-match commercial break — our final one of the evening.

We return from the break and see Darby hitting a crazy spot that sees him land in a scorpion death-drop on Fish. A fan in the crowd looking dumbfounded at the spot is shown in a close-up shot.

Allin hits a Code Red soon after for another close near fall, as he has the crowd going nuts now while he fires up for a big comeback. He goes for a Coffin Drop onto the floor and connects.

Fish takes over again from there, hitting a crazy german suplex on Allin outside the ring ropes on the hard part of the ring apron. Back in the ring, we see Fish take Allin to the top-rope.

He hits a super falcon arrow off the top but a super close near fall. He goes right into an ankle lock but Allin counters into last supper — 1-2-3.

Winner: Darby Allin

Allin wins in an excellent match. Fish attacks Allin as soon as the bell rings. He beats Allin down and then Kyle O’Reilly comes out to join him.

The lights in the building go out. The crowd goes nuts. When they come back on, Sting is standing there to the shock of everyone in St. Louis. Sting nails O’Reilly in the “yam bag” with a bat, then hands a chair to Darby Allin. Allin puts the chair on Fish’s leg, then hits it with a Coffin Drop, getting revenge for reDRagon’s attack that put Sting on the shelf.
