As this goes on, Jon Moxley whispers into Garcia's ear. Garcia gets into Briscoe's face as if to accept the challenge.

We hear from The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona). Ricochet celebrates being National Champion and states that he sets the tone and knows what he is capable of. He says he has done what he has set out to do, then says he is thankful to be champion and that the fans should be thankful for having a champion like him who will travel the globe and represent AEW to the highest degree. He also is thankful to be aligned with Toa Lion and Bishop Kaun, for through them, the road to gold was realized. Toa Liona then announced that he has made a reservation for the finest five-star restaurant, even though it is in Nashville, Tennessee, and they will eat like kings regardless.

Tony Schiavone introduces FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and Stokely Hathaway to the ring. Stokely Hathaway calls tonight the greatest night of his life, for FTR are the AEW World Tag Team Champions, and that Full Gear was nothing but a spectacle from top to bottom with their match with Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) being the one everyone talked about. He calls the match another classic in FTR's book, then briefly mentions the legend of FTR and states that he is humbled and privileged to introduce them. All of a sudden, the lights go out, and The Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson and Austin Gunn) make their entrance. Austin Gunn congratulates FTR on becoming tag team champions once again, then make it clear they do not want to hear about how good they are again. Juice Robinson mentions their recent $200,000 win and states that they want gold to go along with their green, then mentions their prior wins with FTR before proclaiming that The Bang Bang Gang will beat them again and do it for the tag team titles.

Security and referees rush out to stop things from getting worse as Michael Ray jumps the barricade.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews the entire Don Callis Family. Everyone states what they are thankful for, then "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada says he is thankful he does not have to team with "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita, which causes the rest of the family to prevent another potential conflict.

Eddie Kingston beats Katsuyori Shibata. After the match, Eddie Kingston says he will not speak on what Hook did because Hook is his friend and he made his decision, and now he has to pay with "Hangman" Adam Page and Swerve Strickland. He admits that he does what he does because he is pro wrestling, and when the fans say they love him, he says he loves the fans because they love pro wrestling. Eddie Kingston says he wakes up not knowing if he is going to live or die, then says he looks at the kids he inspires to become pro wrestling before telling them not to do it and then looks at Samoa Joe, who he says he once admired. He says that Joe will lead Hook down the wrong path, but before Joe can do anything to Hook, he demands that Joe defend the World title at Winter is Coming. He also says that the only peace he knows is when he is in the ring. Eddie then celebrates with a young fan before heading to the back.

We hear from Red Velvet, who says that Kris Statlander and Mercedes Moné put up a great fight at Full Gear before stating that Mercedes only beat her because she found an opening.

In footage from earlier today, The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) celebrate AEW Dynamite's six-year annivesary at a Hard Rock Café and Casino. Matthew says he has an idea for tonight's ring introduction, while Nicholas is ready to gamble and double his money. After Nicholas finds the high limit slots, we then see him outside of the building near a dumpster, having gambled away all the money in his bag. Matthew mentions his idea for the entrance, then finds out that Nicholas gambled all the money.

All of a sudden, Jurassic Express (Jack Perry and Luchasaurus) shows up, and The Young Bucks are easily overpowered. Alexander tries to fight them, but he gets double-teamed by Jack Perry and Kenny Omega, who then gets upset with Jack Perry. Jack Perry and Kenny Omega get in a physical argument, but Jack Perry goes after The Young Bucks again with a tope suicida, and Luchasaurus joins him as they take the brawl to the back. Omega then says it has been six years and that he has been here since day one, and while he has seen the highest of highs and lowest of lows, he takes pride in the journey itself. He says that friends have been gained and lost along the way, but everyone has shared the experience and he is a better man because of it before looking forward to what happens next. The lights go out, and when they come back on, Omega is suddenly attacked from behind by Andrade el Idolo, who has just returned from WWE. Don Callis gets in the ring and shakes hands with Andrade before raising his hand.

We see a video package showing some of the best moments of Dynamite's six-year history.

Backstage, we hear from Mark Briscoe, who says that tonight is a time of celebration as well as reflection not only for AEW but for himself, as his life has been consumed by MJF for the last six months. He now knows that MJF is all talk and that he told him specifically not to mention Jay Briscoe's name, but he did it more than once, and he showed him that his words have consequences. As for winning the big one, he won big enough to send MJF on a sabbatical, but when it comes to winning championship gold, it is only because of MJF costing him a TNT title shot that he cannot do that. With Hologram injured, it is now up to Orange Cassidy to be champion. Briscoe says that unlike MJF, he can be unselfish and celebrate with his friends, and when Orange Cassidy wins the TNT Championship, he will celebrate with Orange while MJF sits on the couch picking tacks out of his body.

"The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher retains the TNT Championship against Orange Cassidy after Don Callis distracts Orange Cassidy only for Hologram to scare Don Callis off just so he can trip Orange off the top turnbuckle, allowing Fletcher to hit Orange with a brainbuster into the top turnbuckler to retain the title. After the match, Fletcher and Hologram beat up on Orange, but Mark Briscoe and Paragon chase them off. The rest of The Don Callis Family then shows up, and Hologram unmasks to reveal that he looks like Hologram, but is clad in all black and has tattoos, revealing himself to be the evil Hologram clone. The lights then go haywire, even turning red at times.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Mercedes Moné. Mercedes states that next week on Title Tuesday, she will put the TBS Championship on the line against someone local from the state of Florida and make history yet again while approaching the longest TBS title reign in history. She also knows what it takes to be a tag team partner, and is soon approached by Harley Cameron and Mini Moné. Harley thinks they have excellent chemistry, and while Mini Moné agrees, Mercedes says that every time they team up, she loses. Mercedes leaves, and Mini Moné thinks Mercedes is playing hard to get.

"Hangman" Adam Page and The Opps (Samoa Joe and Powerhouse Hobbs) beat The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Daniel Garcia) in a trios match. After the match, Samoa Joe suddenly argues with "Hangman" Adam Page, saying that Hangman has never beaten him, and security has to step in before things get worse. That does not stop Joe from hitting Hangman with a cheap shot, and security has to get into place before Joe leaves with Hobbs.

We hear from Willow Nightingale and JetSpeed ("Speedball" Mike Bailey and "The Jet" Kevin Knight). Kevin Knight wants to challenge one of the members of FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) one-on-one, and Willow says she will be in Knight's corner. Meanwhile, Big Stoke accepts the challenge, but Knight will not know who he will face until the match happens.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews "Hangman" Adam Page. Hangman admits that he thought that Samoa Joe was angry at him when he dropped his title when he handed it to him, then mentions Joe saying he never beat him. Hangman says he is champion thanks to Joe's help, and if Joe wants a title match, he will get one at WrestleDream. He says that he respects Joe, but if Joe throws another fit towards him again, he will ruin his life.

"Timeless" Toni Storm beats Tay Melo. During the match, it is announced that next week's episode will be Title Tuesday and will air on Tuesday at 8 PM Eastern/7 PM Central. After the match, Toni talks about she stared in awe at Kris Statlander at All Out when she became a glorious champion, and when she went to the back, she wondered who she was without the Women's World Championship. Toni tells Statlander that she is not finished with her and wants a one-on-one match with her, then tells Statlander to name the time and place. Before she says that she is timeless, however, Toni stops short of doing just that.

We see a video package for Eddie Kingston vs. Dralistico on Collision, which has an early start time this week of 7 PM Eastern/4 PM Pacific.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Samoa Joe and Powerhouse Hobbs. Joe questions if he and "Hangman" Adam Page and that he has been so focused on The Death Riders that he has forgotten who he is. He says that Hangman has never been greater than him, and says that while Hangman is "cowboy shit," he is about to introduce him to "a world of deep shit."

Ricochet guests on commentary for the next match.

Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona) beat The Swirl ("Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian and Lee Johnson). After the match, Ricochet hits the Spirit Gun on Blake Christian with help from Gates of Agony, then The Hurt Syndicate show up. MVP asks if anyone from Florida is in the crowd, and that leads to an "MVP" chant before admitting he embarrassed himself at All Out and states that he owes an apology to the fans as well as Shelton and Lashley for allowing The Demand (Ricochet, Kaun, Toa Liona) to beat him. MVP feels that he may have lost a step and may not be the wrestler that he used to be, but he can still fight better than The Demand can. He says he does not want to wrestle; instead, he wants a no-disqualification street fight. MVP wants to know if The Demand will meet them in a street fight, and after the fans want it, Ricochet accepts the challenge.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kris Statlander, who says that after six years, she and "Timeless" Toni Storm have never went one-on-one. Statlander accepts Toni's challenge for WrestleDream, then Harley Cameron shows up and approves of the match.

Backstage, Alicia Atout interviews Don Callis, "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada. Callis says The Don Callis Family goes to the next level when it seems they are down and out, and while he took out Kenny Omega, Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) escaped him. He wants Brodido to face Okada and Takeshita in a tag team match next week. Takeshita is reluctant, but Okada wants the match.

Darby Allin and Kris Statlander beat The Death Riders (Wheeler Yuta and Marina Shafir) in a Tornado Tag Match after Yuta inadvertently blinds Shafir with powder following Shafir going feet-first into thumbtacks, causing Shafir to put Yuta in a sleeper hold before Statlander and Darby get the win. After the match, "Timeless" Toni Storm shows up, and she and Statlander have a staredown followed by a slugfest that security has to stop. As this goes on, Darby whips Wheeler Yuta with a studded leather belt until PAC shows up and attacks Darby. Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli and Daniel Garcia show up as PAC chokes Darby with the belt, and Moxley tells Darby that at WrestleDream, he will have zero chance of doing what it will take to win. He says that at WrestleDream, Darby will say "I quit." PAC then hits Darby with a running clothesline to end the show.

Collision Course - Collision recap for July 19, 2025

Tony Schiavone introduces "The Natural" Dustin Rhodes to the ring to start tonight's show. Dustin wishes that "The American Dream" Dustin Rhodes was with him right now, and states that the words "Keep steppin'," introduced to him by his father, has been the main statement of his career. He says that throughout his 37-year career, he has never told him that he is not good enough, and while he has experienced a lot failure, he keeps getting back up, and for the first time in over 30 years, he is the face of TNT. Dustin says that he plans to give his damnedest as a fighting champion, then says "Mom and Dad...I kept steppin' just for you." Suddenly Don Callis and "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher show up and head to the ring, and Fletcher states that Dustin's story is touching, yet he finds it "a gigantic load of crap." He says that tonight's celebration should be his, and after congratulating Dustin for "weaseling his way into" a match that should have been one-on-one, he states he has signed his own death certificate, and that he will not rest until he takes everything from him. Dustin admits that he fell short against some great opponents for the TNT title, then states that all Fletcher does week in and week out is complain and make excuses. He says that he worked three times in twenty-four hours while Fletcher worked only once, and that he pulled it off and Fletcher did not. Don Callis steps in, saying that Dustin is a great wrestler and an even better man after everything that he has overcome and that Dusty is a legend, but of all the demons Dustin has slain, the one high he keeps chasing is championship gold. He knows that Dustin is on top of the world, but wants to know what will happen when Fletcher takes it from him, and says he will hold a place in his family for him. When Callis says that a spot in his family is better than being part of his own dysfunctional family, Dustin grabs him. Fletcher attacks Dustin, but Dustin fires back and sends him and Callis running.

Ricochet beats AR Fox after AR Fox misses on the top rope 450 splash.

Colt Cabana is suddenly attacked at the announce table, with Marina Shafir choking him with a chain from behind before Moxley punches Cabana multiple times. Wheeler Yuta throws Cabana, who is now busted open, around.

Moxley, Shafir and Yuta leave as medical checks on Cabana.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Kris Statlander. Statlander says that while Willow Nightingale was in all of her recent matches, she is a wrestler and she is strong.

Christopher Daniels steps in and says they are more interested in a fight, and Don Callis shows interest.

Alex Windsor beats Taya Valkyrie by submission with the Sharpshooter. After the match, Athena shows on the balcony and says it is time for a new star to be born as "Athena Elite Wrestling" takes center stage, then makes fun of "Timeless" Toni Storm's promos. Toni shows up and tells Athena to get down, as she is the only "balcony bitch" in the business, then tells her to sign her contract and face her. Athena refuses, but Toni tells her to come down to the ring so she can shine her shoe on her sphincter. Athena says that Toni will have to go through Billie Starkz first, but Toni says that if Billie, who she admits will be a great wrestler "when she hits puberty," beats her, she can get a title shot as well, much to Athena's confusion. Toni, deciding that she will come to Athena if Athena will not come to her, then goes straight for the balcony to chase after Athena, and Athena retreats.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Anthony Bowens. Billy Gunn shows up, and Bowens says they are not on the same page and that it is affecting his career. Billy Gunn thinks that Bowens is obsessed with "Platinum" Max Caster, but Bowens is more upset with Billy Gunn not being there when Max Caster turned on him. Billy Gunn mentions that Bowens has him both coming and going, then tells Bowens that he has a "slump buster" for him to get him back on track next week, and Bowens looks forward to it.

Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona) beat Cru (Lio Rush and Action Andretti), The Learning Tree ("The Redwood" Big Bill and "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith) and The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) in a $200,000 Fatal 4-Way Match following the assist from Ricochet.

"Platinum" Max Caster is in the ring. He says that life in the Midwest can be so boring, but he is here and they get to chant his name. He leads his own chant again, but Max says he would rather watch Angel Reese struggle to make a basket than her them struggle on his chant. He then issues the five-minute challenge, and it is answered by Kyle O'Reilly.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 9, 2025

Mercedes Moné heads to the ring to start tonight's show. She asks "Timeless" Toni Storm to keep their face-to-face meeting civil before Toni Storm shows up on the video screen with Luther. Mercedes says she is sick of the games and that she can master any game, then demands Toni meet her in the ring. Toni and Luther head to the ring, and Toni has a bottle of champagne with her. The two of them have a toast to Mercedes becoming the next AEW Women's World Championship, then Mercedes notes the champagne does not taste right. Toni states that Mercedes has viewed her as an underdog and has the authenticity of spray tan in a rainstorm and the depth of a kiddy pool before calling Mercedes a fraud. She says that she found herself in the AEW Women's World Championship while all of Mercedes' titles are masks for Mercedes to hide behind, then asks what Mercedes is trying to hide. Mercedes says they have walked similar paths, yet she will always be better than Toni, and she is not afraid of anyone or anything, and the more people hate her, the more she will win, and nobody will stop her, not even Toni. Mercedes says that the AEW Women's World Championship is her legacy and that she knows who she is, and that she will beat Toni for the title. Toni says that legacies do not exist and that everyone will die and be forgotten, and that all that matters is the one moment where Mercedes steps in the ring, looks in her eyes, and realizes that she fears an ordinary life while Toni fears an ordinary death. Toni says that while Mercedes feels she deserves all the titles in the world, she does not deserve this one, and she will go down as the woman who could not win the big one. Mercedes declares that the conversation is no longer civil, then the two of them have a toast. Mercedes spits out the champagne, Toni yells "Eat shit, bitch!", and Toni nearly lays Mercedes out before Mercedes is able to retreat.

We hear from Jon Moxley, who says that "Hangman" Adam Page beat him before, but that was long ago and that he has not yet lost a war of attrition. He asks if Hangman will outlast him and hold the line under pressure of expectation, then concludes that Hangman is a victim and a waste before calling him "pathetic." He says Hangman has one chance to prove him wrong, and that he had better walk the aisle like it will be the last time, as he is "all the way in" this time.

The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) arrive in their "Founding Fathers" limousine.

Renee Paquette interviews FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler), Stokely Hathaway and The Patriarchy (Christian Cage, "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne, Kip Sabian, Mother Wayne). Christian Cage says FTR and The Patriarchy will both bring their both and expects success, then says that if FTR scratches their backs, The Patriarchy will scratch theirs when they become tag team champions. Stokely says the biggest injustice in AEW is FTR not being in the AEW tag team title match despite their history of success, then says they will be watching before showing interesting in Christian's deal.

We see a video package for "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada vs. Kenny Omega for the AEW Unified Championship at All In Texas.

Mark Briscoe heads to the ring. He is soon joined by MJF. MJF mocks Briscoe's Southern accent, which causes the crowd to tell MJF to shut up, then says there will be no "talky-talk," then tells Briscoe to a "walky-walk back to [his] meth lab" so he can "feed all 95 of his children." Briscoe says MJF needs "a good ol' country ass-whuppin'," which leads to a "whup his ass" chant from the crowd, and while Saturday will be here, MJF cannot berate him because he is proud to be a Southern boy. He says that MJF may be rich and may look rich, but inside, he is bankrupt, and calls "bankrupt" the word of the day, as MJF is morally bankrupt and has no soul, and that MJF is so predictable he can see right through him. After Briscoe says he expects MJF to make fun of his brother Jay Briscoe, MJF says that Jay Briscoe is one of the best. He then says he pities his brother, not because he passed away, but because he has to look down and see what Mark Briscoe has become. He says Jay is rolling in his grave from watching Mark Briscoe go from one-half of the greatest tag team of all time to "nothing more than a joke," and that he would bet that if Jay were here, he would tell Mark it should have been him in that accident. Mark Briscoe immediately goes for the ground-and-pound, but when he goes for the Jay Driller, the rest of The Hurt Syndicate shows up. Before they can get in the ring, "Speedball" Mike Bailey and "The Jet" Kevin Knight go after Lashley and Shelton. Mark Briscoe chases MJF through the crowd as Speedball and Knight brawl with Lashley and Shelton. Shelton gets clocked with one of the tag team titles before getting his head drop kicked into the ring steps. Speedball and Knight then double-team Lashley, who is soon laid out much like MVP and Shelton, then The Patriarchy soon show up and lay waste to The Hurt Syndicate, even smashing Lashley's left leg in the process with a Con-Chair-To.

Marina Shafir then hands The Young Bucks plastic bags to choke Ospreay and Hangman with when Swerve Strickland shows up on the video screen. He says that everything he and The Young Bucks have been through is all about control, then says he is about to take some back. He then smashes The Young Bucks' limousine with a back hoe. The brawl in the ring continues, and this leads to Hangman carrying Moxley's chain. Shafir has to get Moxley out of the ring as the show ends. Meanwhile, The Young Bucks see the extent of the damage to their limousine, then Prince Nana shows up. Swerve Strickland then jumps up from a forklift and hits The Young Bucks.

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!

Summer Blockbuster - Dynamite recap for June 11, 2025

At the start of the show, Christopher Daniels tells "Hangman" Adam Page that he will be fighting both The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Marina Shafir) and The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) at the same time at All In Texas, and while he has friends in the locker room, Hangman should make some allies of his own. As Hangman walks away, The Death Riders (Claudio, Yuta, Shafir) follow.
Will Ospreay vs. Swerve Strickland ends in a 30-minute time-limit draw. After the match, Swerve says he and Ospreay are among the best because AEW is where the best wrestle, and that the only way to prove one is the best is to finish a match. He says he knows what kind of man Ospreay is and that he knows Ospreay wants to beat him, then proposes the match continues in sudden death overtime. All of a sudden, The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Marina Shafir) show up, and when Swerve confronts Claudio, The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson) show up and attack Swerve from behind before hitting him with the EVP-Trigger. Prince Nana confronts The Young Bucks only to Superkick him, handcuff Swerve to the corner and Superkick Swerve repeatedly. The Death Riders retreat as The Young Bucks produce the custom-made Nike cleats that Swerve used at Anarchy in the Arena, but Ospreay gets in the ring and takes the bullet - and the Superkick - for Swerve. The Young Bucks leave as the fans chant "Fuck the Bucks!" and AEW medical checks on Ospreay.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada. Don Callis shows up before Okada can speak, then asks why Okada is facing Kenny Omega and not one of his own family members when his family has had a better six months.

Backstage, MVP shows the rest of The Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, MJF) attacking an unmasked Komander.

Mistico beats Blake Christian. After the match, The Hurt Syndicate arrives, and MJF congratulates Mistico on both winning tonight and impressing him before giving him a match next week at Grand Slam Mexico and looking forward to ripping his mask off. He says that Mistico will not just get any man; he will get the patriot, as he will dust off the red, white and blue and call himself an American hero once again. The MJF-style American flag suddenly unfurls and the red, white and blue streamers shoot out as patriotic music plays, then MJF gets in the ring only for Mistico to take the microphone, laugh at him, and cuss him out as he tells him he will see him next week. When MJF finds out what Mistico just said, MJF says that Mistico will always be "sloppy Sin Cara" to him and that he is about to get dropped. MJF strikes only for Mistico to block and hit back, then Lashley and Shelton gang up on Mistico. As MJF is about to rip Mistico's mask off, "Speedball" Mike Bailey, "The Jet" Kevin Night and Mascara Dorada show up and take The Hurt Syndicate out as they watch the entrance ramp. MVP swings at Speedball with his cane, but Speedball is able to avoid it. We then see AEW crew members removing the streamers. This starts the next match.

He says he wants Hangman focused because this is "do or die" for him. Claudio hits a few knees as Moxley admits that he has watched Hangman for a long time and has found him "complicated."

He says eleven years of paying dues comes to a head tonight. Starks tells MJF that last week was nothing new to him and that he can be a star in his sleep, and that MJF has to find validation in himself while the fans care about him stomping MJF tonight.

Suddenly, Jay Lethal, Sonjay Dutt, Satnam Singh and The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) show up. Chris Sabin introduces The Motor City Machine Guns to the fans, and Alex Shelley tells FTR that while they are the greatest tag team on the planet and may have more money, they do not have the influence and respect of the locker room that they do. He says that a piecemeal team like FTR and Wardlow has no chance of beating them, as they, Sonjay and Jay Lethal are a family.

He proposes that they face Hook for the FTW Championship at All Out and take the weight off his shoulders.

Before the next match, "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth says the best part about Cleveland, Ohio is leaving and moving to a real city, and that he did that and became "The Hollywood Hunk."

Quake By The Lake - Rampage recap for August 12, 2022

Tony Schiavone interviews "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson in the ring to start tonight's show. Danielson says he has been wrestling for nearly 23 years and does not know if he will ever be one hundred percent, but he needs to "live one hundred percent" and nothing makes him feel more alive than being in the ring. He says that he will never willfully stop wrestling, and if Daniel Garcia says that he wants to slay his career, he will have to end it, but he will not end it this Wednesday. Daniel Garcia shows up and says Bryan Danielson is his hero, but it sounds like his hero is prepared to lose and is coming up with excuses. He says that his coming and going hurts him, which makes him want to hurt Danielson. He says that he will hurt Danielson so badly that he will end his career, and instead of "The Dragon Slayer," he will be "the greatest technical sports entertainer on the planet." Danielson says he is okay with people trying to end his career, as violence begets violence, but "sports entertainment bullshit" pisses him off. He says that he mentioned Garcia when he started Blackpool Combat Club because of the potential that he saw in him. He then asks Daniel Garcia if he wants to be "the greatest technical sports entertainer on the planet" or "the best technical wrestler on the planet," then leaves the answer up to him before leaving.

Clayton then challenges Hook for the FTW title next Friday. Hook accepts.

Mark Henry interviews Best Friends (Chuck Taylor, Trent Beretta, Orange Cassidy) and The Trust Busters (Ari Daivari, Slim J, Parker Boudreaux).

Before the next match, Ari Daivari gives Orange Cassidy one last chance to join The Trust Busters (Ari Daivari, Slim J, Parker Boudreaux), and that all he has to do is lay down so they can all leave town. Orange lays down, then rolls away when Ari tries to pin him.
