from Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, NY!
Tony Schiavone, Ian Riccaboni, and “Daddy Magic” Matt Menard
were the broadcast team for tonight’s event.
It’s Saturday night and you know what that means! This is
for the Sickos!
Saraya’s Rules Match!
Jamie Hayter
vs.
The Outcasts’ “The Unproblematic Icon” Saraya (with Harley
Cameron)!
“The rules all favor Saraya,” said Tony Schiavone.
“The rules are all stacked in the favor of Saraya,” replied
Ian.
Hayter stomped a mudhole into Saraya. Cameron held Hayter’s
ankle and then Saraya smashed a VHS player across Hayter’s
head. Saraya walloped Hayter with a computer keyboard.
Outside the ring, Harley mounted Hayter and rammed her head
into the floor. Harley whipped Hayter into the steel
guardrail.
Saraya whacked Hayter with repeated cookie sheet shots.
Hayter grabbed Saraya and hurled Saraya with a German Suplex
on the floor! Cameron jumped on Hayter’s back but Hayter
escaped and bashed Harley into the guardrail. Saraya used a
steel pipe on Hayter.
Saraya opened a backpack and emptied the contents—die cast
metal toy cars—onto two tables at ringside. Saraya tried to
suplex Hayter, but Hayter fought her way out of it. Hayter
slammed Saraya onto the floor, as Saraya jumped off the
apron at Saraya.
Hayter was on the edge of the ring when Harley jumped up and
tried to German Suplex Hayter onto the tables. Saraya
smacked Hayter with a steel chair, sending both Hayter and
Harley falling backwards through the tables! Saraya covered
Hayter on the floor for a two-count.
Hayter powered up Saraya and planted Saraya through a table
that had been propped up against the turnbuckles. Hayter
spiked Saraya with a tombstone piledriver! Hayter won via
pinfall after a wicked lariat to Saraya!
“The lariat the exclamation mark on a signature win for
Jamie Hayter,” said Ian.
“Just absolutely took her face off,” replied Daddy Magic.
“I would argue that Hayter is immediately in title
contention,” added Ian.
TNT Championship Open Challenge Match!
“The Scapegoat” Jack Perry (c.) vs. Minoru Suzuki!
Minoru invited Perry to give him his best shot. Perry fired
off multiple forearms and Suzuki laughed and shrugged it
off. Minoru walloped Perry with a thunderous chop. Suzuki
worked over Perry’s fingers, wrist, and arm, twisting and
then stomping on Perry.
Jack Perry nailed Minoru with a neck breaker. Perry cracked
Minoru with two knee strikes. Minoru locked a rear naked
choke on Perry, but Perry escaped with a back body drop.
Minoru whipped the champion into the guardrail outside the
ring. Jack Perry grabbed Minoru and rammed him into the
steel ring steps. Jack followed up with a draping DDT onto
the arena floor. Jack Perry jumped back into the ring before
the 10-count, but Suzuki couldn’t answer the ref’s count and
Perry won via count out!
Perry continued to punish Minoru after the match until
Shibata sprinted to the ring, chasing Perry away!
Tornado Trios Match!
The Conglomeration—ROH World Champion Mark Briscoe, Kyle
O’Reilly, & “Freshly Squeezed” Orange Cassidy
vs.
“The Bad Apple” Bryan Keith, “The Red Wood” Big Bill, & “The
Learning Tree” Chris Jericho!
“Tornado Rules, anything goes!” said Daddy Magic.
Orange Cassidy hit Jericho with a loaded backpack. Orange
opened the backpack and revealed it had a brick inside.
Bryan Keith hurled Kyle with a T-bone suplex. Kyle fired
back with a rolling elbow strike. Orange and Kyle tried to
chop down Big Bill and with the help of Briscoe, they sent
him over the top rope.

steel ring chair. Orange rolled up Jericho for a two-count.
Big Bill blasted Orange with a big boot and then served up a
bossman slam to Kyle.

Bill. Briscoe followed up with a shotgun dropkick to Bill.
Briscoe grabbed a chair, but Jericho cracked Briscoe with a
Code Breaker on the steel chair.
Kyle and Orange delivered round kicks and then a dropkick to
Keith and Jericho. Big Bill stormed in and bulldozed both
Kyle and Orange. Kyle came back with a dragon screw through
the ropes on Big Bill. Orange connected with an Orange Punch
on Big Bill, who was knocked off the apron and onto Bryan
Keith on the arena floor.
Briscoe catapulted off the chair, flipped over the top rope,
and wiped out Jericho on the arena floor. Briscoe slid a
table into the ring. Briscoe decimated Jericho with a Jay
Driller out of nowhere!
Briscoe placed Jericho onto the table. Mark climbed to the
top turnbuckle, looking for the froggy bow, but Big Bill
choke slammed Briscoe through the table! Jericho covered
Mark Briscoe and picked up a gigantic win via pinfall.
Jericho motioned to his waist, indicating he wanted the ROH
World Championship.
“In ROH, when you pin the champ, traditionally you get a
title shot after that,” noted Ian.
The House of Black’s Brody King vs. Action Andretti (with
Lio Rush & Top Flight)!
Action took the fight to Brody, chop blocking Brody twice.
Action followed up with a shooting star splash. Brody fired
back with a chop to Action’s throat. Action jumped off the
turnbuckles, but Brody countered with a big right fist.
Brody splashed Action in the turnbuckles. Brody continued
with a cannonball splash in the corner and then pinned
Action Andretti.
“Let’s give a lot of props to Action Andretti for the
effort. But Brody is an absolute monster of a man,” said
Tony Schiavone.
Brody walked past Top Flight with a mocking smile. “The
MurderHawk Monster” Lance Archer and the Righteous attacked
Top Flight and Lio Rush after the match!
AEW World Trios Eliminator Match!
“The Bastard” PAC, Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta (c.)
vs.
Komander & Private Party—Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy (with

followed up with a dropkick. Claudio hit Quen from behind as
Claudio stood on the apron.

tagged back in and stomped Quen in the corner. Yuta wouldn’t
accept Pac’s tag. Claudio scoop slammed Marq Quen and
followed up with a double foot stomp. Claudio nailed Quen
with a back breaker. Wheeler refused Claudio’s tag again.

a tag. Brother Zay was working off adrenaline and spiked Pac
with a DDT for a near fall. Claudio stomped on Zay’s hand,
breaking up the pin attempt. Claudio forced Yuta to tag in.
Claudio hurled Zay around the ring with the Giant Swing.
Claudio looked at Yuta, but Yuta refused to dropkick Zay.

Claudio with a flying crossbody. Yuta used a right angle
slam on Zay.
Yuta wrenched on Zay’s broken hand. Yuta clobbered Zay with
hammer and anvil elbows. Yuta locked on the Cattle
Mutilation and won via ref stoppage! Claudio and Pac clapped
for Yuta, but Yuta left the ring without his partners.
Up next: MxM Collection—Mansoor and Masen Madden, came out
to the ring!
Mansoor asked if everyone was ready for the Grand Slam
finale to New York fashion week. MxM Collection commenced
with their fashion walk, the models walking the runway to
the ring. MxM Collection unveiled Hans, who was modeling Max
Caster’s repurposed, redesigned jacket. Hans began to pose,
and MxM Collection said it’d be an honor if they touched
tips with him. Hans removed his mask and revealed himself—it
was Daddy Ass!
Daddy Ass cleaned house, but the numbers worked against him.
The Acclaimed sprinted to the ring and took on everyone. MxM
Collection retreated from the ring!
“So much for the Fall fashion show,” said Tony Schiavone.

vs.
“The Last Outlaw” Jeff Jarrett (with Karen Jarrett, Satnam
Singh, and Jay Lethal)!

jaw. Jarrett escaped a Dead Eye attempt and went for a
sharpshooter. Page bit the skull of Jarrett to get out of
the sharpshooter attempt. Page planted Jarrett with a belly
to belly suplex for a near fall.
Jeff surprised Page with a Russian Leg Sweep. Page clubbed
Jarrett with a clothesline, knocking Jarrett over the top
rope. Page followed Jeff but fought off the lumberjacks.
Page tried for a buckshot lariat, but Juice whipped Page
with the leather strap. Jeff Jarrett took flight off the top
rope and wiped out Page on the floor!
Page countered the Stroke attempt with a leather strap. Page
continued to whip Jarrett until Karen jumped in the ring to
shield Jeff. Jay Lethal got into the ring but Page whipped
him. It bought enough time for Jeff to get to his feet and
whip Page.
Hangman left the ring, but the lumberjacks began to give
Hangman a taste of his own medicine. Back in the ring Page
nailed Jeff with a low blow, followed up with the Dead Eye,
and pinned Jarrett.
“Wow, Jeff Jarrett came to fight, but Page survived that
one,” said Schiavone.
After the match, as the Bang Bang Gang were checking on
Jarrett, Page blindsided Juice, screaming, “Don’t you ever
get in my business!”
Austin and Colten Gunn came to the aid of Juice, and Page
finally left the ring!
3-Way Lucha Libre Match!
Dralistico vs. The Beast Mortos vs. Hologram!
The Beast Mortos bulldozed through Hologram and Dralistico
with a double clothesline. Dralistico hit Beast Mortos with
a thrust kick. Dralistico sent the Beast Mortos out of the
ring with a drop toe hold. He followed up with a tope
suicida to the Beast Mortos. Hologram, quicker than a
hiccup, wasted no time taking flight and hitting a tope of
his own on Dralistico!
Dralistico dumped Hologram into the corner with a suplex.
Dralistico wiped out the Beast Mortos with a hurracanrana to
the outside from the top rope! Hologram walked the top rope
and crash landed (on his feet) on Dralistico and the Beast
Mortos!
The Beast Mortos hit a Samoan Drop on Dralistico. Hologram
stood on the Beast Mortos and then planted him with a poison
rana! The Beast Mortos power bombed Hologram onto his knee.
Dralistico followed up with a Mexican Destroyer on Hologram!
Hologram rebounded, cradled Dralistico and picked up the
victory!
After the match, the Beast Mortos and Dralistico pushed one
another. Rush walked to the ring and forced them to get on
the same page. Hologram jumped into the mix and Rush clocked
him!
“When you mess with the horns, you get the horns. I wonder
if Rush is getting the band back together, bringing the
Beast Mortos into the LFI fold,” said Ian.

AEW Continental Champion “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada
vs.
ROH World Tag Champion “The Spanish God” Sammy Guevara (with
