Welcome to AEW WrestleDream 2024 weekend! This episode of
AEW RAMPAGE was broadcast on TNT from the Spokane Arena in
Spokane, WA!
Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Jeff Jarrett were the
broadcast team for tonight’s event.
It’s Friday and you know what that means! The fastest hour
in professional wrestling!
This…is…Rampage!
The Conglomeration’s “Freshly Squeezed” Orange Cassidy &
Kyle O’Reilly
vs.
Undisputed Kingdom—Matt Taven & Mike Bennett!
Orange attempted a rollup, but Bennett quickly kicked out of
it. Bennett lunged at Orange, but Orange took down Bennett
with a shoulder tackle. Kyle tagged in, as did Taven. Kyle
and Orange cleaned house on the Kingdom, employing tandem
offense.
“How about this? The Conglomeration putting in the tag team
work,” said Jeff Jarrett.
Taven wiped out Kyle with a dropkick. Bennett stomped Kyle
in the corner. Taven suplexed Kyle for a near fall. Orange
spiked Bennett with a DDT and followed up with an elbow
suicida to Taven.
Bennett and Cassidy collided in the center of the ring, both
looking for a lariat. Kyle and Taven tagged in for their
respective teams. Taven planted Orange with a DDT. Taven
took down Kyle with a swinging DDT, followed by a moonsault
press for a near fall.
Orange pulped Taven with the stundog millionaire. Bennett
blocked the Beach Break and countered with a stalling
piledriver. Bennett clocked Kyle with a spinebuster for a
near fall!
Orange clobbered Taven with an Orange Punch while Kyle
locked Bennett in a guillotine, forcing Mike Bennett to tap
out!
Kris Statlander vs. Amira!
Statlander charged at Amira with a big boot. Kris followed
up with a delayed vertical suplex. Kris crunched Amira with
Friday Night Fever and scored the pin in a decisive victory!
The Beast Mortos vs. The Butcher!
The Undisputed Kingdom’s Roderick Strong joined the
broadcast team for this match.
The Beast Mortos used a snap mare. Butcher blasted the Beast
with a lariat. The Butcher tenderized the Beast Mortos with
chops to the chest outside the ring.
“I can’t believe he did that to my buddy the Beast,” said
Roddy.
The Beast Mortos cracked the Butcher with a big headbutt.
The Butcher stunned the Beast Mortos with a jackhammer for a
near fall! The Beast Mortos fired back with a back breaker
and then a flying headbutt from the top rope, pinning
Butcher!
“See! Just me being out here is a good luck charm for The
Beast Mortos,” said Roderick Strong.
Rush and Dralistico were also scouting The Beast Mortos
during the match.
Don Callis Family’s “The MurderHawk Monster” Lance Archer
vs. Matt Brannigan!
Don Callis joined the broadcast booth for this match.
Archer taunted Matt after Matt chopped him. Archer walloped
Matt with a clothesline and then a massive back body drop.
Archer hurled Brannigan with a belly to belly suplex. Archer
finished off Brannigan with the Blackout for the 1-2-3!
“Archer dominant in his debut as a member of the Don Callis
Family,” said Excalibur.
Up Next: The Acclaimed—Max Caster and Anthony Bowens came
out for their match!
MxM Collection—Mansoor and Mason Madden ambushed The
Acclaimed as Caster and Bowens were making their entrance!
Mansoor sent Bowens headfirst into the entrance tunnel.
Mason choked Caster with the custom jacket.
“This is just a mugging!” said Excalibur.
Mansoor: “Now you see what happens when Daddy Ass isn’t
around to protect you! We drop you on your asses! I bet none
of you thought MxM Collection were capable of this! We
wanted to keep it light and fun, but you took our Grand Slam
Collision moment away from us. So now we are going to take
something from you. Tomorrow night at WrestleDream we are
going to beat you and take your spot!
“As you can all see, when the numbers are even, MxM
Collection come out on top. So tomorrow night we are going
to have a very special surprise, a third man in our corner!
I promise you that he is going to make sure we kill and bury
scissoring once and for all!”
Rampage Main Event Time!
The Conglomeration’s Rocky Romero vs. “The Bad Apple” Bryan
Keith!
Bryan Keith attacked Rocky before Rocky could remove his
entrance gear. Rocky wiped out Keith with a hurracanrana on
the floor. Keith intercepted Rocky and rocked Romero with an
exploder!
Back in the ring, Rocky battered Bryan with stiff chops and
kicks. Rocky spiked Keith with a DDT! Bryan cracked Rocky
with an elbow strike and then smashed Rocky with a knee
strike for a near fall!
Bryan bashed Rocky with a headbutt square on the jaw. Rocky
came over the top with a Sliced Bread. Bryan Keith rolled
out of the ring, taking himself out of reach. Rocky closed
the distance, connecting with a tope suicida.
Bryan Keith distracted ref Aubrey Edwards while Big Bill
rushed to ringside and blindsided Rocky with a big boot to
the head! Keith used the Diamond Dust on Rocky Romero to
score the win. Orange Cassidy and Kyle O’Reilly jumped into
the ring, and Bryan Keith and Big Bill quickly made the
retreat.
