Commentators Excalibur, Ricky Starks, Taz and Chris Jericho welcome fans to Rampage! We kick things off with the AEW World Tag Team Titles on the line!

AEW World Tag Team Championship: The Lucha Brothers (w/Alex Abrahantes) (c) vs. The Butcher & The Blade (w/Matt Hardy)

The Blade and Rey Fenix start things off. The Blade pushes Fenix down on the mat. Back on his feet, Fenix misses a rebound spinning heel kick but recovers with more fast offense. Penta El Zero M and Fenix plant a nice double superkick on Blade. Order is restored, and Fenix and The Butcher are the legal men in the match. Fenix fights off The Butcher and Blade with some nice back kicks before tagging Penta back in. Penta hits a slingblade. Both Fenix and Penta dive out of the ring! Back in the ring, The Butcher connects a nasty spear just before we go to picture-in-picture.

Picture-in-Picture: The Butcher maintains control over Penta during the 90-second break.

Coming back from the break, Penta hits a nice enziguri on Blade and codebreaker on Butcher before bringing Fenix back in. Butcher pulls Fenix down from the top rope but gets caught with a textbook moonsault/German Suplex combination for a near-fall. Fenix and Penta join forces with a double foot stomp/Fear Factor combination on Blade for just a two count! Penta tries to wear down The Blade with some hamstring kicks. The Blade counters out with a nice slam. The Blade brings The Butcher back in for a combination backdrop. The Butcher goes for another cover. Penta kicks out at two.

Another hot tag is made between The Butcher and Blade. Blade takes Penta and ties him up on the middle rope. Penta sacrifices his mask by taking it off and saving his brother in time from another pin attempt. Luckily, Fenix turns it around for them to retain their championships!

Winners: The Lucha Brothers

Post-Match: Private Party runs out and continues the beatdown on the tag champs. Santana and Ortiz come out and make the save for Penta El Zero M and Rey Fenix.

Kenny Omega & Bryan Danielson Reflect on Their Upcoming Matchup:

The AEW World Champion Kenny Omega sees Bryan Danielson as an underdog, whose getting a little too cocky to ask for a challenge with a guy like himself. Danielson, on the other hand, believes he belongs in this match. He hopes to prove Omega wrong, as well as prove, what so many already know, which is he's the best wrestler to ever step foot in the squared circle.

"The American Dragon" and "The Best Bout Machine" will square off in what will likely be a match of the year front-runner next Wednesday at AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam.

Anna Jay (Tay Conti) vs. The Bunny (w/Penelope Ford)

The Bunny takes the fight to Anna Jay just as she makes her way down the ramp. As they make their way into the ring, both women trade some heavy forearms. Back on the outside, The Bunny tosses Anna into the barricade. The Bunny wears and tears on Anna's arm that got caught in the barricade slam. Their match will continue right after the break.

Back from the break, Anna Jay connects a perfect neck breaker, but it isn't enough for her to take the win just yet. Anna looks for the Queen Slayer. The Bunny counters. Tay Conti and Penelope Ford start brawling on the outside. Meanwhile, Anna rolls The Bunny up with a schoolgirl to pick up the pinfall victory.

Winner: Anna Jay

Post-Match: Penelope Ford decks Tay Conti and Anna Jay with a sturdy pair of brass knuckles.

- We look back at Powerhouse Hobbs' heinous attack on CM Punk this past Wednesday. Hobbs looks forward to their Rampage: Grand Slam matchup next Friday. This will be Punk's first TV match in seven years!

- Tony Schiavone is standing in the ring with Matt Hardy and Jack Evans. Hardy notices a fan in the audience who is sporting the Orange Cassidy look. He drags the poor fan into the ring, and Evans starts shaving his hair off. Orange Cassidy's music hits, and he comes out to save the poor fan and whatever is left of his hair.

Dr. Britt Baker and Ruby Soho Come Face-to-Face:

Before their match for the AEW Women's Championship at Dynamite: Grand Slam on Wednesday, the champion Britt Baker and Ruby Soho have some things to say in their face-to-face meeting.

Tony Schiavone is back in the ring and gets a big hug from Baker once she makes her way in. Baker has quite the grin on her face when Ruby Soho comes out and rocks out to her entrance music. Baker finds her upcoming opponent as a desperate soul who is trying to find herself. But Baker, on the other hand, sees herself as an established act.

Soho agrees that Baker has made a name for herself, but she seems to shove it down the spectator's throats. Soho, however, is confident in her skin. The fans are all in her corner following that statement. Soho calls Baker an entitled, self-centered chick who's "banging some guy in the back." The fans liked that!

Baker claps back by reminding Soho that the only reason she's in AEW is that she got fired from you know where. Soho says getting fired was the "best damn thing to happen to her." She is thankful for being let go because if she weren't she wouldn't be the number one contender to this major prize in the AEW women's division. Soho guarantees she will be the one to end the D.M.D. era.

Baker charges at Soho. Soho counters and sends her straight out of the ring. Baker leaves her title behind, which Soho grabs and holds up high.

In the Back: Mark Henry speaks to Fuego Del Sol and the TNT Champion Miro before their main event clashing. Fuego is ready to correct history and take the title home tonight. Miro says there's no way that'll happen.

And now, the main event!

Title Vs. Car: Miro's TNT Championship vs. Fuego Del Sol's New Car

Fuego Del Sol side steps and locks Miro up in a waistlock. Miro breaks out of it and misses his signature kick. Fuego is near the ropes. Miro charges towards him like a bull. Fuego pushes the top rope down, and Miro goes crashing to the outside. Fuego plants two specaulaor tornado DDTs. The fans literally enter themselves in this bout by helping Fuego bounce back from Miro. But his momentum gets lost after Miro sends Fuego flying from a fallaway slam just before we head to picture-in-picture.

Picture-in-Picture: Miro is in the driver's seat throughout the break. Miro ragdolls Fuego around but only gets a two count following a nasty elbow drop. Fuego jumps on top of Miro's back and tries to apply a sleeper hold. He finally gets it in, taking Miro down on one knee. Fuego scales the ropes and soars off with no interruptions. Unfortunately, his luck changes when Miro catches Fuego mid-air after coming off the ropes. That concludes the picture-in-picture segment.

Back from the final commercial break, Fuego rocks Miro with a high kick. Miro swats Fuego out of the air just seconds after! Fuego recovers with a double foot stomp and follows up with a short DDT. Fuego looks for another torndado DDT. Miro stops him in his tracks and hammers down shot after shot on poor Fuego in the corner. Miro could have ended it after hitting a nasty kick, but he likes torturing Fuego too much. Miro lands one more kick that sends Fuego in a daze. 1-2-3. God's Favorite Champion retains and now is a brand new car owner!

Winner: Miro

Post-Match: Miro applies a camel clutch on Fuego. Sammy Guevara has seen enough and comes out to help Fuego. Guevara sees Miro left his TNT Championship behind. Guevara picks it up, teasing a potential go at the title. The fans seem elated with this, and that's how this week's show ends.

 

Thanks for watching!
