AEW Rampage

FTR defeated Top Flight to retain the ROH Tag Titles: HIT All caveats about FTR’s booking and the ROH scene aside, this was an excellent match featuring two recognized teams. Great to see Top Flight […]

Lance Archer defeated Ricky Starks to advance in the AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament (+pre-match brawl): HIT The match portion of this may not get a good rating, but the pre-match backstage brawl leading to […]

Christian Cage, Luchasaurus, and Jungle Boy Promo: MINOR HIT It’s refreshing to see an AEW heel actually be heelish and play for boos. Thank you, Christian Cage. Also refreshing to start Rampage with a promo. […]

Video Package on Katsuyori Shibata: MISS I commend AEW for trying with a video package, but the only thing I learned is that Shibata is a Japanese wrestler coming back from injury. Nothing about who […]

Blackpool Combat Club (Moxley, Castagnoli, and Yuta) defeated Los Faccion Ingobernable: HIT Very good opening contesting featuring the world champion. On a typical episode of Rampage, I would want this to be the main event, […]

The Acclaimed defeated Butcher and Blade and Private Party in a Triple Threat Tag Match to retain the AEW Tag Titles: HIT A nice, exciting first-title defense by the Acclaimed. Triple Threat tag rules are […]

Darby Allin and Sting defeated Buddy Matthews and Brodie King: MINOR HIT Decent opening match with the usual peppering of crazy Darby spots that I’ve grown numb to. This was probably a “HIT” if you […]

Darby Allin defeated Matt Hardy: MINOR HIT The setup to this match was a bit contrived, but the match itself was a solid television bout. I suppose Darby needed to regain some credibility after Sting […]

Sammy Guevara defeated Darby Allin to advance in the AEW World Championship Tournament: MINOR HIT Good, but not even close to the best match these two could put on. The distraction finish might make others […]
