I won't be ordering this but I'm not faulting AEW or NJPW for it. Just can't be giving AEW $50 each month. I feel like the card ended up pretty damn solid. Can't imagine how different it could/would've been had CM Punk, Kenny Omega, Bryan Danielson, MJF, Jeff Hardy, Samoa Joe been available. (I'm probably forgetting a few others)

Full Card
AEW Interim World Heavyweight Title Jon Moxley vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi
IWGP World Heavyweight Title Jay White (c) vs. Hangman Page vs. Adam Cole vs. Kazuchika Okada
Zack Sabre Jr. vs. ?
ROH & IWGP Tag Team Titles - Winner Takes All FTR (c) vs. Jeff Cobb & Great O-Khan (c) vs. Roppongi Vice
IWGP United States Title Will Ospreay vs. Orange Cassidy
AEW Women's Title Thunder Rosa (c) vs. Toni Storm
AEW All Atlantic Title PAC vs. Miro vs. Clark Connors vs. Malakai Black
Darby Allin, Sting, Hiromu Takahashi & Shingo Takagi vs. The Young Bucks, El Phantasmo & Hikuleo
Eddie Kingston, Shota Umino & Wheeler Yuta vs. Chris Jericho, Minoru Suzuki & Sammy Guevara
Buy In Swerve Strickland & Keith Lee vs. El Desperado & Yoshinobu Kanemaru
Hirooki Goto & YOSHI-HASHI vs. Aaron Solo & QT Marshall
The Gunn Club & Max Caster vs. The DKC, Alex Coughlin, Yuya Uemura & Kevin Knight
My Picks Swerve & Lee Goto & YH New Japan Dojo Bros Team Jericho
Dudes With Attitudes PAC Rosa Ospreay Cesaro (mystery opponent) FTR
Okada
Moxley
With politics, this could go either way. I could see Switchblade losing his title without being pinned and Okada pinning Cole. I could even see Tanahashi beating Mox to set up All Out and Tana vs. Punk. My picks make it 4-4 NJPW/AEW with the two 6 man, womens title & All Atlantic titles being neutral.

I'll take the wait and see approach on the other matches, but PAC needs a title win. It's long overdue.

Yeah Miro doesn't need a title like this. Connors is a replacement. Black doesn't need a title. PAC has lost a lot of momentum due to the pandemic and not being in the US very much over the last few years. This could hopefully be a kick start he needs.

Another one bites the dust.
Hiromu out. Has fever and can’t travel. Sting, Darby & Shingo vs Bucks & ELP is a trios now.
To be honest, love Hiromu and no offense to Hikuleo, but this will probably be a better match.
Still though. Fingers crossed everyone stays healthy coming out of this show.

Show is like $15 if you go watch it at an AMC. That's not a bad deal.

If it's Roderick Strong, I will quit AEW forever. Seriously Wait a minute, wait a minute... You sat there and yelled at some of us last week for criticizing Rampage, yet you threaten to quit watching if one guy shows up? You also got mad at me months ago for not wanting Jeff Hardy in AEW. |

Dean Malenko is a charismatic supernova compared to Roderick Strong.

I guess you can also go to the show for a couple bucks.

I mean I like the opening hit of Where Is My Mind for when he comes out, but Jane Says is his old theme and good too. Probably just didn’t want to have to pay The Pixies still? Not sure why the change but I’m cool with it.

So if it's Cesaro then that means he'd be teaming up next week with Kingston for Blood & Guts, correct? Don't they hate each other in real life or is that just kayfabe?

Yes he’d be in both matches. You could play into the “bad blood” Kingston & Claudio have had in the past as a way to question whether Eddie can trust him. Similar to how they’d go about Danielson.

I also hope we get a Shibata appearance. Maybe he helps his Dojo crew and kicks the shit out of the Ass Boys?

On topic of theme music. I hope Tony cleared Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer for when Claudio walks out.

You know it’ll be a good crowd when they’re already amped for a Yoshi-Hashi hot tag!
Fun opener. YH & Goto over Solo & QT
I like Kevin Kelly on commentary with Excalibur and Taz

Ok randomly Lance Archer vs Nick Comoroto about to start. Never heard a thing about this being on the card. Gets Archer on I guess.
Hoss fight.
