Martin selling the leg injury during the springboard cutter, allowing it to buckle under him, was a great spot.If that is the case, expect more twists and turns before the inevitable singles match.ī- for the match A for the promo segment The feud is as good as anything AEW is doing right now, and the look of hesitation on Luchasaurus' face as he and his buddy exited suggests Cage's overture to the big man may have left an impression. The crowd erupted for Jungle Boy's insults toward Cage while jeering, loudly, the heel's reactionary comments. Jungle Boy hit the ring for a scathing promo on Christian Cage, only to be interrupted by Captain Charisma, who claimed to have the advantage still because he knew all of the babyface's secrets.Īll Elite Wrestling get VERY personal here, with Jungle Boy in regards to Christian Cage!

While that might not be the most alluring match for Kingston given he is fresh off a main event-worthy feud with Chris Jericho, it will almost certainly have heat. This is clearly leading to a mixed tag match pitting Kingston and Soho against Guevara and Conti. 'My goddamn time is now!'

Rush is a star of the future and, if AEW officials are smart, a future that is more immediate than not. It was a pay-per-view-quality main event that did as much for the challenger in defeat as it did to further Moxley's grip on the title. Speaking of the world champion, he tore the house down with Rush in the night's opener. He should never have beaten Eddie Kingston a week ago in a Barbed Wire Everywhere match, and it would not be at all surprising if he inexplicably beat Moxley, either. Given the recent booking of Jericho and the questions surrounding it, there is reason to be concerned that the title will switch hands.Īll Elite Wrestling Moxley doesn't want the gimmicked Jericho for the #AEW Interim World Championship Jon Moxley wants LIONHEART Jericho at #QuakeByTheLake in Minneapolis, MN on Wednesday August 10!
