AEW Rampage Results 8/9 - Nyla Rose Takes On Saraya, Darby Allin Faces The Butcher And More

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "AEW Rampage" on August 9, 2024, coming to you from the LJVM Coliseum in Winston-Salem, North Carolina!

Saraya will be returning to action for the first time since coming up short to eventual winner Mariah May in a quarterfinals match for the 2024 Women's Owen Hart Cup Foundation Tournament on the AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door Zero Hour Pre-Show in June as she goes one-on-one with Nyla Rose. Saraya will surely be extra motivated to pick up a win tonight after Rose defeated her ally Harley Cameron during last week's episode of "Rampage".

As he continues to prepare to challenge for the AEW World Championship at the AEW Grand Slam special in September, Darby Allin will be squaring off with The Butcher. Allin secured his shot at the title after he emerged victorious in the Royal Rampage match on the July 26 episode of "Rampage".

Wheeler Yuta of Blackpool Combat Club will be looking to gain some momentum tonight ahead of his match against Swerve Strickland this coming Wednesday on "AEW Dynamite" as he collides with Rocky Romero. This will be Romero's first match in singles competition since he came up short against Shota Umino on the June 14 edition of "Rampage".

Additionally, Dustin Rhodes will also be appearing on tonight's show with something on their mind to share as he and The Von Erichs continue their reign as Ring of Honor World Six-Man Tag Team Champions. Private Party also look to redeem themselves from their loss against MxM Collection last week as they return to action against a team who has yet to be announced.

We are live! Excalibur, "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard", and Tony Schiavone greet audiences at home as Darby Allin makes his way down to the ring. The Butcher is already waiting inside.

The bell rings and Butcher levels Allin with a big boot. He follows it up with a pair of bodyslams and a right hand, then jams his boot into Allin's neck. Allin traps The Butcher's leg into the ring skirt on the outside, but The Butcher levels him and charges at Allin on the outside looking to sandwich him between himself and the barricade. Allin moves out of the way, then delivers a Coffin Drop to Butcher off the top rope. Allin then ascends to the top back in the ring and looks to fly, but Butcher levels him mid-air and dropkicks him into the corner. He connects with a chop on Allin, then whips him into the corner.

Back from the break, Allin flies off the middle rope. Butcher sees him coming and locks in a Texas Cloverleaf, but Allin makes his way over to the bottom rope to break the hold. Butcher sends Allin crashing out of the ring, then sends him crashing into the barricade shoulder first twice before he sends him colliding with the ring post and the barricade spine first. Allin flies out of the ring to level Butcher on the outside.

Allin then delivers a splash on Butcher in the corner, but Butcher sits him on the top rope. The pair exchange slaps before Allin connects with a Code Red on Butcher and follows it up with a Coffin Drop for the win.

Winner: Darby Allin

Wheeler Yuta then makes his way down to the ring. Rocky Romero follows, and Bryan Danielson joins the commentary desk.

The bell rings and the two lock up. They each land a chop on each other before Yuta connects with a shoulder tackle on Romero and the two take turns locking in submission holds on one another. Yuta lands a T-Bone suplex on Romero, then delivers three chops to him. Romero responds with three of his own, but Yuta hits one more and sends Romero crashing to the outside. He follows it up with a tope suicida.

Back from the break, we see Swerve Strickland watching the action from backstage as Romero wears Yuta down with a submission hold. Yuta runs over Romero with a clothesline, and the two exchange chops with one another. Yuta lands an Atomic Drop on Romero, then connects with an enzuigiri and sends him crashing into the mat. Yuta ascends to the top, but Romero intercepts him and delivers a Sliced Bread. He goes for a pin, but Yuta kicks out. Romero looks for a second Sliced Break out of the corner, but Yuta blocks him and delivers a Tombstone. He rains down Hammer and Anvil Elbows on Romero and locks in a submission on him. Romero taps out.

Winner: Wheeler Yuta

We then head backstage to Renee Paquette talking to Willow Nightingale about Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway. Tomohiro Ishii approaches Nightingale and says he hates Hathaway as well. Nightingale then asks Ishii if he has plans for Wembley Stadium, and the pair walk off to have a chat.

Back at ringside, Private Party makes their way down to the ring. Zane Dawson and Dane Dawson are already waiting inside.

Kassidy and Dane begin the action. The bell rings and Dane whips Kassidy into the corner. Quen tags in and flies into the ring before Zane tags in. Quen delivers a jawbreaker to Zane, but Zane lands a double ax handle on his spine. Quen connects with a bodyslam on Zane. Dane and Kassidy then tag in, and Kassidy fires off forearms on Dane. He follows it up with a hurricanrana and goes for a pin, but Zane breaks the fall and delivers a splash to Kassidy in the corner. Zane and Dane look to double team on Kassidy, but Quen saves Kassidy. Quen then delivers a hurricanrana to Dane off the ropes, and Kassidy catches him with a cutter for the win.

Winners: Private Party

Back from the break, we head over to a message from Dustin Rhodes. He reflects on being one third of the Ring Of Honor World Six-Man Tag Team Championship and the recent developments between him and Sammy Guevara. Rhodes then puts Matt Taven and Mike Bennett on notice and tells them that he wants the ROH World Tag Team Champions. Taven and Bennett then enter and confront Rhodes before Bennett delivers a low blow to Rhodes. 

Back at ringside, Saraya and Harley Cameron make their way down. Nyla Rose follows.

Saraya blindsides Rose on the apron and sends her crashing into the ring steps. She gloats, and the bell sounds when Rose gets inside the ring. Rose catches Saraya with a splash in the corner, then connects with a pair of bodyslams and looks to land a third one. Saraya escapes before she can, then slides out of the ring. Rose slides under the bottom rope, but Saraya traps her in the ring skirt and fires off right hands on her.

Back from the break, Saraya delivers a kick to Rose's chest and follows it up with a twisting neckbreaker. She goes for a pin, but Rose kicks out. Saraya and Rose then exchange forearms with one another before Rose connects with a chokeslam on Saraya and goes for a pin. Cameron hops up on the apron and keeps the referee from counting the fall, but Rose stares her down on the outside. Saraya looks to take advantage, but Rose clocks her. Cameron then looks to clock Rose, but Rose levels her. Saraya then delivers a kick to Rose, but Rose hits a Brainbuster on her. Saraya falls into a pin, and Cameron holds her foot in place to ensure she scores the fall.

Winner: Saraya
