Let's Talk About | AEW ALL IN



Welcome back to the blog, if you are new here, hello and welcome, apologies for the delay of the ALL IN conversation until now, this was due to the Bank Holiday weekend here in the U.K, normal service resumes now. 

There were three matches on the Zero Hour, all of them were tag team matches, shoutout to the winners, especially Willow Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii defeating Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway, this means Willow has the right of choosing the stipulation for her match against Kris at ALL OUT for the CMLL Women's World Championship. 

Saraya made her way to the ring with Harley Cameron, she was interrupted by fellow Brit, the returning Jamie Hayter, what a reception for her by the crowd, this broke into a fight to close out Zero Hour. 

We will now break down the main card matches as quickly as possible. 

Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta & PAC are the NEW Trios Champions, this began a great night for the stars from England, Mariah May continued the celebrations by capturing the AEW Women's Championship from Toni Storm, this capped off a great rivalry between the two, it has also been the best story in AEW. Congratulations to the NEW Champions here. 

Hook is the NEW FTW Champion, Taz played a part in helping his son win, the two shared a great moment after the match. The Young Bucks are still Tag Team Champions, pinning FTR for the win, The Acclaimed have an argument to be the next challengers. 

The Casino Gauntlet Match was the one I was looking forward to watching the most, as there were due to be surprises in store, Orange Cassidy and Kazuchika Okada started the match, followed by Nigel McGuinness, who got a great reaction from the crowd, his participation was very unexpected, Ricochet was entrant number ten, he put on a great performance, we shall see what he does next, he is due to wrestle Kyle Fletcher on Dynamite this Wednesday. Christian won the Gauntlet with an assist from Luchasaurus. 

Will Ospreay completed the hattrick of NEW Champions being crowned from England, to win the International Championship, Daniel Garcia appeared during the match, to continue his story against MJF. 

Mercedes Mone is still the TBS Champion, Mercedes and Britt put on a good match, this will be their first of many,

Jack Perry is still the TNT Champion, he defeated Darby Allin in the Coffin Match, the main headline took place after the match was over, The Bucks and Perry poured petrol on the Coffin with Darby in it, Perry was about to set the Coffin on fire and the lights went out. 

IT's STIIIIIIIIIIING! 

The crowd went insane as Sting walked out and saved Darby from The Elite, it must be said that Sting's appearance was talked about by me whilst in conversations with others on social media, this prediction proved to be correct, one hundred percent.

Bryan Danielson won the AEW Championship from Swerve Strickland, Adam Page gained some revenge on Swerve. The night belonged to The American Dragon as he celebrated in the ring with his family at Wembley Stadium. 

The ALL IN conversation is now over, thank you for reading, be sure to check out the upcoming schedule and archived content here on the website.

Let's Talk About | SummerSlam

SummerSlam was LIVE from Cleveland, Ohio. Jelly Roll sang his hit song "Liar" in the ring as the pre-show montage was shown on screen. 

The host of the biggest party of the summer was the hometown representative, The Miz, he introduced the opening match of the PLE. Liv Morgan versus Rhea Ripley for the Women's World Championship. 

Dominik Mysterio turned against Rhea, as many expected he would, and helped Liv win the match to remain Champion, the two confirmed their alliance afterwards and walked to the entrance, social media was very interesting afterwards. 

Bron Breakker is the NEW Intercontinental Champion, he dispatched Sami Zayn in quick and convincing fashion, we will find out who is next for Bron (excuse the Goldberg pun) whereas it looks as though Sami will move on and be involved in the next chapter of The Bloodline Story, plans are subject to change of course.

The titles continued to change hands, LA Knight is the NEW United States Champion, ending Logan Paul's reign, hopefully this rivalry is over as well. YEAH! 

The hat-trick was completed, Nia Jax defeated Bayley to win the Women's Championship, congratulations to Nia, this is very well deserved, Nia will need to be aware of Tiffany, who will want to cash in The Money In The Bank contract on her friend when she isn't looking. 

Seth Rollins was the guest referee for Drew McIntyre vs. CM Punk, he did a great job in that role, he let Drew and Punk fight each other, this match was a throwback to 1997. Drew finally got his revenge on Punk by picking up victory. 

The Ring General, Gunther, won the World Heavyweight Championship from Damian Priest, due to the actions of Finn Balor, this caused the complete implosion of The Judgment Day, Gunther has had great title runs in the past, and will look to do the same as World Heavyweight Champion. 

The Bloodline Rules match was the main event, for the WWE Championship, Cody versus Solo, the last time we saw this match stipulation was at WrestleMania 40, where we saw run-ins from various people, this followed a similar pattern. Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa attempted to help Solo win, Kevin Owens and Randy Orton evened the numbers up, they fought away from the ring. The Samoan Werewolf, Jacob Fatu appeared and attacked Cody, it looked like he suffered an injury after hitting a frog splash through the announce table, fingers crossed that it is not the case.  

When Cody and Solo were on the mat, we witnessed the return of the Original Tribal Chief, the Greatest Of All Time, Roman Reigns, the crowd acknowledged him with cheers, Reigns hit Solo with the Superman Punch, followed by the spear, he nodded at Cody before walking away, Cody hit the Cross Rhodes for the win.

Reigns stood near the entrance, staring at Rhodes when the match was over before the show closed out.

Looking forward to seeing what happens next in the WWE as the build to Bash In Berlin begins.
