00:00:00Welcome everyone to Rigamata Wrestling, Ian Rigamata and Caprice Coleman tonight.
00:00:12The sensational, high-flying, innovative Cyndi Aquib makes his ROH debut against Mayheath
00:00:17for TV.
00:00:18TV ready, Johnny?
00:00:19TV.
00:00:20I don't know what airline you took to get back in London, but I know Top Flight took
00:00:23Top Flight and they brought Leila Gray with them.
00:00:26They're going to be in action tonight.
00:00:28And that's not all, tonight we hear from Shane Taylor Promotions, I heard the pure
00:00:33champ, Liam O'Hearn, he has a lot on his mind coming off of All-In weekend.
00:00:40One coming off a successful weekend and the other one coming from celebrity status, we
00:00:43have women action tonight.
00:00:45We have Rachel Ellerin taking on Nina Shibukawa.
00:00:49And two men coming off starring roles at Wembley, Aria Daivari takes on the conglomerations,
00:00:55two heroes here tonight.
00:00:57When we start things off with Proving Ground action, our Ring of Honor Women's World Champion,
00:01:04Athena will take on the UK's Aaliyah James.
00:01:10The following contest is a Ring of Honor Women's World Championship Proving Grounds match.
00:01:19The Valedictorian of MIT about to announce the champion.
00:01:28Making her way to the ring from Garland, Texas, she is the Fallen Goddess, our Minion Overlord.
00:01:36She is your Ring of Honor Women's World Champion, Athena!
00:01:45For so many years, we have known a Jay Lethal, a nickname, something that was bigger than
00:01:55Jay Lethal himself, the franchise.
00:01:57On the women's side, over 600 days, record-breaking reign, now chasing down only one competitor,
00:02:04Samoa Joe, who's had any reign longer.
00:02:07Athena stands tall as a pillar, maybe the pillar of Ring of Honor.
00:02:11Will also be the greatest reign because he will be the reign in time and defenses.
00:02:17Incredible, we take it out to Alexi Nair for her opponent.
00:02:21And her opponent from London, England, Aaliyah James.
00:02:26Aaliyah James with a great opportunity here.
00:02:30Coming all the way from London, and that's another thing.
00:02:34You know, I saw a great fan who made a graphic that had all of the defenses and proving grounds
00:02:39Athena's participated in.
00:02:41Athena has been willing to take on all competitors from all countries at all times.
00:02:47Just absolutely incredible.
00:02:49We kick things off, coat of honor here too.
00:02:51She's gonna have her hands full with Aaliyah James, calls herself an all-arounder.
00:02:54She's been to a lot of countries, but she's adapted to those countries,
00:02:57so she has a lot of styles and genres she can pull from.
00:03:01So Athena's gonna have to ground Aaliyah and probably try to take her out
00:03:06before she's able to show this stuff.
00:03:08And Billy Starks helping lead the chant of forever on the outside.
00:03:13Why did Lexi have to do the introduction? I'm just curious.
00:03:16Last time I saw that.
00:03:18Right? She cost, in my opinion, Queen Aminata the Ring of Honor Women's World Championship,
00:03:24or at least a more time on the clock.
00:03:27Is this like an insurance policy to have Lexi to announce her matches,
00:03:31to have her on the outside, and Billy Starks is also a licensed manager?
00:03:35Did you see how dejected Billy was last week when she got demoted from MIT?
00:03:39Absolutely. Still did. Nice flip by the champ.
00:03:42Oh, come on.
00:03:43And I'll tell you what, no matter what you say about our champion,
00:03:47she's one of the greatest wrestlers in the world.
00:03:50Aaliyah fighting back.
00:03:52Look at the eyes of Athena in disbelief.
00:03:58I'll tell you what though, Caprice, it's a story in history that's as old as time.
00:04:02When you get power, you do anything to keep it.
00:04:05When you taste absolute dominance, which Athena has earned,
00:04:09you begin to do anything.
00:04:12And that is a left hand shave.
00:04:14Oh my goodness, that might have been a knockout blow.
00:04:16Oh, come on.
00:04:17She has knocked out many, Athena, to retain her championship with that.
00:04:21Even with the Proving Grounds match,
00:04:23the Proving Grounds keeps you from getting a title opportunity, Rick Abadi.
00:04:26In my opinion, we've talked about it, it's just as good as a title defense
00:04:29because it sends young competitors right to the back of the line.
00:04:32Oh, goodness, form connects.
00:04:33And it keeps them from an opportunity at the title.
00:04:36And we have seen people lose in the Proving Grounds, Rick Abadi.
00:04:39Certainly have.
00:04:41And around, waist lock, nice misdirection from Aaliyah James.
00:04:44Around, head splitter takeover.
00:04:46Nice, the misdirection has the champion off her feet.
00:04:48And Aaliyah on the chase.
00:04:50Charging in, big knees, connect on Athena.
00:04:52Bulldog.
00:04:53Oh, plants the champ.
00:04:54Spike Bulldog.
00:04:55Hooks the leg.
00:04:56Two.
00:04:57Two count only.
00:04:59And that had to have woken Athena up there.
00:05:01Yeah, and you see Aaliyah right here trying to recover
00:05:03from the damage that Athena has done.
00:05:05But approaching gingerly the champ because she doesn't want to rush it
00:05:09because you're putting the thing on the outside.
00:05:11Athena can set you up, man.
00:05:12Very sneaky.
00:05:13Now holding the neck is Athena.
00:05:15Yep.
00:05:16She's planting.
00:05:17Yep.
00:05:18Yeah.
00:05:19Oh, goodness.
00:05:20Right there can pull the shoulder out of joint.
00:05:21Yeah, and you don't see any limp anymore, do you?
00:05:23Nope.
00:05:24That boot is gone.
00:05:25Smart, man.
00:05:27Maniacal.
00:05:28And Athena on the apron.
00:05:31Sending James crashing down.
00:05:37Is she yelling at Billy there?
00:05:39No, she's getting the crowd going.
00:05:40She's saying, let's go.
00:05:41You know, Athena doesn't live too far from here.
00:05:43A native of Dallas, Texas herself.
00:05:48There was something there.
00:05:52The way she's been treating Billy Starks lately, man.
00:05:54Because she talks to Billy Starks in any way she feels like it.
00:05:57It's almost like Billy Stark takes it.
00:05:59But doesn't want to, but takes it.
00:06:01What shocks me is Athena now with Aaliyah James on the inside,
00:06:05pie-facing Aaliyah.
00:06:08Nice kick to the thigh.
00:06:10Aaliyah staying alive.
00:06:11My God.
00:06:13Smack to the face will change any thoughts you have.
00:06:19It's intimidating and imposing.
00:06:21Paintbrush there.
00:06:24Aaliyah back to her feet.
00:06:26Trying to at least run the clock out.
00:06:27These Proving Ground bouts, if you run out the ten minutes
00:06:30or get a victory over the champ, you earn a title shot.
00:06:32Whoa!
00:06:33Arcadona!
00:06:34One, two!
00:06:35My goodness.
00:06:36Almost.
00:06:37Almost for Aaliyah James there.
00:06:38That was out of nowhere as well.
00:06:39That's exactly what Aaliyah's going to have to continue to do.
00:06:41Champion cutting her off, putting her head in the turnbuckle.
00:06:44Now looking for the Irish whip.
00:06:46Gets it.
00:06:47Following James in is Athena, the world champion.
00:06:49No space to breathe.
00:06:51Chasing down 646.
00:06:53Came out of this.
00:06:54Samoa Joe had his world champion.
00:06:57On the men's side, Athena could become the longest reigning champion
00:07:02of any title in Ring of Honor history.
00:07:04Like you said, Caprice, doubly impressive considering the Proving Grounds
00:07:08and the title defenses.
00:07:09You have to admit it, man.
00:07:10You can't underline it.
00:07:11You have to say it'd be the greatest championship reign
00:07:14in Ring of Honor history, men and women.
00:07:17She's held down.
00:07:18She's fought on TV almost every week.
00:07:21No other champion has done that, Rick Abani.
00:07:23Provide.
00:07:24Oh, my goodness.
00:07:25Oh, look at this.
00:07:26Driving through.
00:07:27Aaliyah's arm is almost limp there.
00:07:30Nothing you could do to this.
00:07:31Kabat, man.
00:07:32Turn your neck.
00:07:33If you turn your neck down, it's going to make your arm involuntarily move.
00:07:36Imagine having it locked in and getting kicked in the face.
00:07:41Aaliyah trying to fight out.
00:07:42Definitely in pain here.
00:07:43Needs to do something.
00:07:44Vertical base established, taking some of the pressure off the neck.
00:07:47Separation created.
00:07:48Aaliyah swinging amiss.
00:07:49Athena, the world champ, up and over.
00:07:51With the Proving Ground Challenger.
00:07:53Oh.
00:07:55And another.
00:07:58And Aaliyah.
00:08:02Flank kick.
00:08:03That's a champion to the corner.
00:08:05Oh, the Proving Ground Challenger now sent to the apron.
00:08:08Swinging amiss.
00:08:09Oh.
00:08:11And James on a roll here.
00:08:13Springboard.
00:08:14High cross body.
00:08:15Locked in.
00:08:16Cover.
00:08:17Two.
00:08:19What in the world?
00:08:20Wow.
00:08:21What a way to get out.
00:08:22You've got to be kidding me.
00:08:23Using the momentum.
00:08:24No way.
00:08:25To deadlift James out of the pin position.
00:08:28The power of our champion.
00:08:32Oh, my.
00:08:33Sending James down.
00:08:35And the cover.
00:08:37Two.
00:08:38I don't think Athena's finished, Riccoboni.
00:08:39Oh.
00:08:40Powerbomb out of the stack.
00:08:42Two.
00:08:43No way.
00:08:44Oh, and Athena willingly bringing James back up.
00:08:47Drive down James.
00:08:50Cross face hook.
00:08:52No way out again.
00:08:53James got to tap.
00:08:54Yeah.
00:08:55Hit.
00:08:56Yeah.
00:08:57And your winner, Ring of Honor Women's World Champion, Athena.
00:09:10Let her go.
00:09:11Let her go.
00:09:13Let her out of this.
00:09:16And Mike Posey able to break things up here.
00:09:25She is done.
00:09:30Let her go.
00:09:31That was a great effort.
00:09:32No.
00:09:33We don't need.
00:09:34We've been weeks, months without this.
00:09:35Yeah.
00:09:36We don't need to see this again.
00:09:37We don't need to see proving ground competitors.
00:09:40She's going to smash her face, Riccoboni.
00:09:42Wait a second.
00:09:43They're here.
00:09:45They're here.
00:09:48Oh, here they come.
00:09:50Abaddon has arrived.
00:09:56And this is the first time we've ever seen any wrestler create the fear in the eyes
00:10:03of the world champion like Abaddon does.
00:10:05You can't disguise that.
00:10:06That was definitely fear in the eyes of the champion.
00:10:10And look at Abaddon staring down the world champion.
00:10:14Athena's speechless.
00:10:15Yeah.
00:10:16All the trash talk.
00:10:18Undecisive of her maneuver.
00:10:20This is spooky.
00:10:22This is spooky.
00:10:24This is spooky.
00:10:26Yeah.
00:10:27They're scared, bud.
00:10:29And Athena.
00:10:30Whoa.
00:10:31Forearm across the chest.
00:10:33She's not scared.
00:10:35She's champion.
00:10:36Whoa.
00:10:37Okay.
00:10:39Oh, look at this, Abaddon.
00:10:42Chasing the world champion.
00:10:45Oh, no.
00:10:46You feel like somebody in the movies.
00:10:49You can't help it, man, when you're running in fear.
00:10:52Shoot yourself up.
00:10:53And it's Abaddon.
00:10:54Oh.
00:10:55Belly starts.
00:10:57Has laid out Abaddon with the women's world champion.
00:11:03I don't care what's running in your body when it still meets your head
00:11:06and it's turning you off.
00:11:09And Athena, who was cowering.
00:11:13Athena just woke up from a nightmare.
00:11:15Lexi, my girl.
00:11:17She thinks Lexi did it.
00:11:20She thinks Lexi knocked Abaddon out of her.
00:11:23Oh, no.
00:11:24Oh, no.
00:11:25Oh, no.
00:11:26Oh, no.
00:11:27Oh, no.
00:11:28Oh, no.
00:11:29Lexi knocked Abaddon out of her.
00:11:32Lexi.
00:11:34Wow.
00:11:36She really thinks Lexi.
00:11:38She's trying to tell us.
00:11:40Belly starts showed the courage to stand up to Abaddon.
00:11:46Abaddon showed the courage to.
00:11:48Wow.
00:11:50And Abaddon may have saved Aaliyah James' permanent injury.
00:11:55Yeah.
00:11:58Oh, this is unreal.
00:11:59Abaddon rises.
00:12:04This is unreal.
00:12:06And Athena's never going to go back and watch this.
00:12:08She's not going to relive.
00:12:09No.
00:12:10No time.
00:12:11When Abaddon and they struck fear in the heart of the world.
00:12:14She's not going to go.
00:12:16That really saved her.
00:12:17Athena just escaped.
00:12:20Wow.
00:12:24We had some great representation this weekend at All-In including the tag team
00:12:27and six-man tag team champions.
00:12:31Vance Arwich was well represented at All-In once again as the world's six-man
00:12:35and tag team champions collectively.
00:12:37The Von Eriks, Dustin Rhodes, and Sammy Guevara teamed with the former
00:12:40pure champion and ally Katsuyori Shibata.
00:12:42The team of Arwich's favorites met in the moment, flying high and ending the
00:12:45night with a sextuple claw.
00:12:47And the Von Eriks and Rhodes family standing tall once more.
00:12:52What a moment.
00:12:56Huge singles contest on the way coming up next.
00:12:59Big debut.
00:13:01This match is set for one fall with a 20-minute time limit.
00:13:05Approaching the ring, weighing 184 pounds, Cindy Aqib.
00:13:12Cindy Aqib, welcome to Ring of Honor.
00:13:15One of the most innovative high flyers.
00:13:18Acrobatic offense personified, Caprice.
00:13:20I'll tell you what, this is a fusion I love to see.
00:13:23When the athletes come from another place, they learn how to wrestle,
00:13:26they're able to add their art to it.
00:13:28It's going to be amazing.
00:13:31And quite the matchup indeed.
00:13:34Another innovative star stands across the ring.
00:13:37His opponent, being accompanied by Taya Valkyrie,
00:13:41western Los Angeles, California, weighing 214 pounds,
00:13:46Johnny T.V.
00:13:50Does he have more abs this week, Caprice?
00:13:52I think you're just looking harder this time.
00:13:54Well, I'll tell you what, I was looking at MXM Collection the other night.
00:13:58Let me tell you something about that great tag team.
00:14:01But Johnny T.V., a tag team in front of us here.
00:14:03Johnny T.V., the made-for-TV couple with Taya Valkyrie.
00:14:10And Johnny T.V., look at him bounce back.
00:14:13That great matchup against Mark Briscoe.
00:14:15And, of course, Mark's.
00:14:21Is that next to the Rick of Bone Zone?
00:14:23It actually is.
00:14:24It actually is.
00:14:25They almost share a zip code.
00:14:27Jason Counties, huh?
00:14:28Yep.
00:14:30Well, as I was saying, Mark Briscoe had a great night at All In.
00:14:35What a history.
00:14:36Oh, my goodness.
00:14:38Yeah.
00:14:39Yeah, this is – oh, now the tongue.
00:14:42This is – we need the X or something here.
00:14:44What do you think about it?
00:14:45Really?
00:14:46What?
00:14:47Okay.
00:14:48I like when MXM does the thing with the tips.
00:14:50That's how you got here.
00:14:51Well, allegedly, right?
00:14:55Let's talk about these two great athletes here.
00:14:57Sidney Akeem making his ROH debut.
00:14:59Johnny T.V., both men skilled in parkour and gymnastics.
00:15:02Yeah.
00:15:03You couldn't have a better matchup to welcome Sidney into Ring of Honor.
00:15:07Oh, look at this, going straight for the wrist lock for the arm.
00:15:09Of course, we talked about history being made at All In.
00:15:11Oh, sweeps the leg.
00:15:13All Out is coming up.
00:15:15Caprice getting ready for a doubleheader weekend in Chicago.
00:15:17Oh, my goodness.
00:15:18That's a doubleheader.
00:15:21Yeah, I'm going to keep talking through that display of affection.
00:15:26Because AEW is coming with Collision to Chicago September 6th
00:15:29and AEW All Out September 7th.
00:15:33At the Now Arena.
00:15:34Oh, goodness.
00:15:35Tickets on sale now.
00:15:36AWTIX.com.
00:15:37Sidney delivering shots here on Johnny T.V.
00:15:40Don't be hating, Rick Abadie.
00:15:41I'm not hating.
00:15:42I just –
00:15:43Whoa.
00:15:44Is that a flying worm?
00:15:48Able to control his body on the way down, man.
00:15:50I tell you what, absorbing the impact.
00:15:52My goodness.
00:15:53It's like a video game.
00:15:55That was a drop salt.
00:15:56And Tye Valkyrie is echoing our thoughts.
00:15:59What is going on here?
00:16:00Look at this, Sidney Hakeem.
00:16:03Sidney Hakeem putting the brakes on, man.
00:16:05That shows that balance.
00:16:06Mid-air balance.
00:16:07Wow.
00:16:08Look at that, like a cat, Rick Abadie.
00:16:11Yeah.
00:16:13And staying on his feet, Sidney Hakeem.
00:16:16And what a history-making weekend we had at All In.
00:16:21It was so great to see Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara,
00:16:24Devon Erickson with those ROH titles.
00:16:26Sidney Hakeem up top.
00:16:27Oh, goodness.
00:16:28Whoa, no.
00:16:30This is the thing with Johnny T.V., man.
00:16:32Johnny T.V. has the acrobatic background, but he's also a veteran.
00:16:35Sidney Hakeem is going to have to watch this type of stuff
00:16:37because they have the same background.
00:16:39The only difference is Johnny T.V. has the experience.
00:16:42You're absolutely right, Caprice.
00:16:44Johnny T.V.
00:16:45Let's not forget this made-for-TV, T.V.-ready star.
00:16:50He's competed all over the world.
00:16:52You've wrestled him in Qatar.
00:16:53Yeah.
00:16:54And that's just a sampling of the countries and venues Johnny T.V.
00:17:00has been to.
00:17:02I'll tell you, watching Johnny T.V. work out is a whole other
00:17:04thing.
00:17:05I'm going to pause for this.
00:17:07Well, and that was a bit of a tongue workout.
00:17:09Oh, yeah, it burns a lot of calories.
00:17:11But anyway, when you watch Johnny T.V. work out,
00:17:14he doesn't use a lot of weights.
00:17:15He does body control.
00:17:16He does calisthenics, full-body calisthenics.
00:17:18I do it all the time.
00:17:19He's chopping so hard.
00:17:21And then look at the way he's chopping.
00:17:23Oh.
00:17:25Made it too long.
00:17:26Oh.
00:17:27Wow.
00:17:28Does he work out with those body exercises?
00:17:30What is that?
00:17:31Grab the fan's hat?
00:17:32Oh, come on.
00:17:33Behind referee Mike Posey's back.
00:17:37A well-timed attack.
00:17:39And those calisthenics, those bodyweight exercises,
00:17:41had nothing to do with going to the eyes.
00:17:43It's just deep darkness.
00:17:44Hooks the light cover.
00:17:45It is, because the talent that Johnny T.V. brings to wrestling,
00:17:48he doesn't need any of the interference.
00:17:50But it's that assurance that helps them win,
00:17:53even though they're so talented.
00:17:56And a chin lock in.
00:17:58Sidney Hakim.
00:18:01Johnny T.V.'s grounding Sidney Hakim.
00:18:04Trying to grab the air out of him to make him have to choose when he moves.
00:18:09And now trying to swing out those hips,
00:18:11trying to reestablish a vertical base.
00:18:13He's reaching his Sidney.
00:18:15Now shot to the obliques.
00:18:17And another.
00:18:18Both men back to their feet.
00:18:20It is Johnny T.V. now.
00:18:22Oh, that big knee strike.
00:18:24What in the world?
00:18:27And Sidney.
00:18:28Oh, goodness.
00:18:30And a spin into the knee.
00:18:32Johnny T.V.
00:18:35Point of the boot.
00:18:36Follows through.
00:18:38Shining wizard style knee to the face there.
00:18:41Incredible balance and precision.
00:18:42Watch this.
00:18:44Is he going for Starship 8 already?
00:18:46I don't think so.
00:18:48Johnny T.V.
00:18:50Oh, my goodness.
00:18:51Whoa.
00:18:52God.
00:18:54I think Johnny landed on his neck, Ricky Bonnie.
00:18:56And we talk about high risk, high reward.
00:18:59How often?
00:19:00He's hit that move hundreds of times this time.
00:19:03Lawn darting himself.
00:19:06And he's got to have pins and needles in those fingers right now after that.
00:19:10But that's why they call it high risk, Ricky Bonnie.
00:19:12Any time these athletes are in the ring, it's already a high risk.
00:19:14But these maneuvers bring it up notches.
00:19:17Sidney back in, though.
00:19:19And look at this.
00:19:20Great debut here for Sidney Hakeem.
00:19:21Open hands.
00:19:23Delivering across the chest.
00:19:24Swing and a miss.
00:19:25Ducks down.
00:19:26Oh, a nice shot to the back.
00:19:29And now Sidney Hakeem.
00:19:30Oh.
00:19:31Johnny T.V.'s balance is off, Ricky Bonnie.
00:19:33Whoa.
00:19:35Up and over Mike Posey.
00:19:37Hooks the leg at two.
00:19:39It's like a corkscrew knee, like corkscrew meteor attempt by Sidney Hakeem.
00:19:45Yeah, very innovative star.
00:19:46We've talked about it.
00:19:47Sidney Hakeem has done moves that wrestlers only dream of.
00:19:51Yeah.
00:19:53But it's an art, Ricky Bonnie.
00:19:54I'm so appreciative to the gymnastics at the Olympics.
00:19:57When you see these athletes do these things with their body,
00:20:00it shows you that anything is possible.
00:20:03And it takes control.
00:20:05It takes breath work.
00:20:07You see a great shot over the shoulder.
00:20:09A tie at Valkyrie as Johnny T.V. unloading on Sidney here.
00:20:11Winding up a little too much time.
00:20:13Sidney parkours out of it.
00:20:15That was a parkour and capoeira movement there, Ricky Bonnie.
00:20:19Absolutely.
00:20:20Great call.
00:20:21Oh.
00:20:22Anticipation.
00:20:23Anticipation is the name of the game here.
00:20:26Whoa.
00:20:27That might be it, Ricky Bonnie.
00:20:29Swinging through on the neck breaker.
00:20:31Looking for it again.
00:20:33Second rope on the inside.
00:20:36Starship pain.
00:20:39Got him that time.
00:20:40Hooks the leg.
00:20:41Two.
00:20:42And that's it.
00:20:46The winner of this match, Johnny T.V.
00:20:50Great effort from Sidney Hakeem.
00:20:52Certainly a competitor we'd love to see back here at Ring of Honor.
00:20:56But Johnny T.V. bounces back from his shot at the world title.
00:21:01Looking to climb right back up the ladder.
00:21:03Standing tall here, Caprice.
00:21:05Absolutely, man.
00:21:06Great show by Sidney Hakeem.
00:21:08But I believe Johnny T.V. is definitely made for TV.
00:21:15We've got this place.
00:21:18All out.
00:21:20We make the moments that make us happen.
00:21:24Chicago, Illinois.
00:21:26You want to call it the second city?
00:21:28Nah.
00:21:29This right here is our second home.
00:21:33And in this house, we do what we always do.
00:21:37We make history.
00:21:40A.W. All Out.
00:21:49Caprice, the countdown can only mean one.
00:21:52Wait a minute.
00:21:53What?
00:21:54Already?
00:21:57Wow.
00:22:00Not coming out alone.
00:22:03Everybody died.
00:22:05That's what he said.
00:22:07And that's a fact.
00:22:09Lance Archer.
00:22:14What a way to make an entrance here in Arlington.
00:22:17He was so nice.
00:22:18He brought his opponent with him.
00:22:19How many wrestlers do that, Rick?
00:22:22Archer not wasting any time here.
00:22:27The Texas native.
00:22:31He's going to call for the bell.
00:22:36Into the corner.
00:22:37This is Ozzy here.
00:22:38Ozzy.
00:22:39First year in wrestling, Rick.
00:22:41Biggest match Ozzy's ever had.
00:22:44Well, and it might be his last.
00:22:46Oh, my goodness.
00:22:48Lance Archer been a huge part of A.E.W. since the beginning.
00:22:50And, of course, A.E.W. celebrating its five-year history.
00:22:53Huge fifth-year anniversary in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
00:22:55Wednesday, October 2nd, Peterson Event Center.
00:22:57Grab the best seats in the house now.
00:22:59AWTIX.com.
00:23:01Holy smoke.
00:23:02The excitement you have when you get an opportunity to show yourself.
00:23:06These young athletes.
00:23:07Look at Lance Archer going for the coat of honor it is officially adhered to.
00:23:12He's going to ring the bell.
00:23:13Well, and.
00:23:16Black hole slam.
00:23:19Tell you what, Archers look great over the last couple of weeks,
00:23:22including the bout against longtime rival Will Ospreay.
00:23:27Archer in his own right.
00:23:28Uh-oh.
00:23:34Former IWGP United States champion with New Japan.
00:23:39Making his mark across both sides of the Pacific.
00:23:42He's making his mark on Ozzy right now.
00:23:45Whoa.
00:23:46Come on, Ozzy.
00:23:47Give him something.
00:23:48Uh-oh.
00:23:49There's a chop.
00:23:50You got to keep chopping, man.
00:23:51You can't just hit one time.
00:23:52Love the resilience here.
00:23:53And Archer.
00:23:54Give him another chance.
00:23:56He's the man of opportunity.
00:23:57Well.
00:23:58And look at that.
00:24:01Look at the blood vessels.
00:24:02Yeah.
00:24:03The skin popping.
00:24:04It just shows you before everybody died,
00:24:05they're going to have an opportunity to do something.
00:24:07What you do with it is up to you.
00:24:09I appreciate the positive twist on this.
00:24:13Unfortunately, I'm seeing things through a glass half empty lens for Mr.
00:24:18Ozzy here today.
00:24:19Well, see, Ozzy's still moving, man.
00:24:20He is.
00:24:21He's a young heart.
00:24:22Biggest match he's ever had.
00:24:23Of course, he's a huge opponent.
00:24:25You know, and he's hanging in there.
00:24:26He's trying.
00:24:27Look at that.
00:24:28There you go.
00:24:29That's what I'm saying.
00:24:30Great resilience.
00:24:31That's all you can do, man.
00:24:32You can do your best.
00:24:33You never know what can happen.
00:24:34Big boot here.
00:24:35Second rope on the inside.
00:24:36Look away.
00:24:37Just that one look away to the crowd.
00:24:39We have a monster in front of you.
00:24:40Yeah.
00:24:41And this is the beginning of the end.
00:24:47It is a block out.
00:24:49Cover here.
00:24:51Two.
00:24:52That's it.
00:24:55Moving on to this match, the murder hook monster,
00:24:58Lynch Archer.
00:25:01Whether it's in single competition or six-man tag here with the
00:25:05righteous.
00:25:07In tag team action with Monster Sauce and New Japan.
00:25:10Wait a minute.
00:25:11Come on.
00:25:13This young man.
00:25:14Oh, God.
00:25:15I thought he was going for the coat of honor again.
00:25:19Lance Archer just absolutely dominating here in Arlington.
00:25:25Oh, come on.
00:25:27No need for that.
00:25:29Lance Archer, your victor here tonight in Arlington.
00:25:33Everybody.
00:25:39As Archer heads back victorious, Shane Taylor, Lee Moriarty,
00:25:43the CP standing by.
00:25:46And Helico, you laid out a challenge to the ring of honor pure champion
00:25:51Tiger style Lee Moriarty.
00:25:53I like that confidence, homeboy.
00:25:55Maybe it's because you were trained by the maestro of maestros,
00:25:59Negro Navarro.
00:26:01Maybe that's what allows you to party all night,
00:26:03come into a match and go into that flow state.
00:26:06You love so much.
00:26:09Let me tell you something.
00:26:11With all the training that he gave you,
00:26:13with all that flow state that you like to be in,
00:26:16that still won't be enough to get you past the best young technical
00:26:21wrestler on the planet.
00:26:22That still won't be enough to make you a champion.
00:26:28And Helico,
00:26:30I understand a little Spanish and I'm not afraid of you.
00:26:34So you want to match against me for my ring of honor pure championship?
00:26:38I accept.
00:26:40But just be sure that you watch your step and protect your neck.
00:26:46Rumble pure champ.
00:26:49Rumble.
00:26:54And you heard it folks here tonight.
00:26:56Inspector Dex said protect your neck.
00:26:58So did Shay Taylor from Oceans.
00:27:00Moriarty defends the pure title against Helico.
00:27:05Wow.
00:27:06What a main event that match will be tonight.
00:27:09Pure title, main event, women's action up next.

00:28:01Japan.
00:28:02I love the interest is bring a body.
00:28:05These interests just make everything special.
00:28:10Well,
00:28:11when you talk about a champion,
00:28:12you talk about a champion.
00:28:14Well,
00:28:15when you talk about top of the top.
00:28:17Mina Shearer.
00:28:18A column.
00:28:19Added yet.
00:28:20Another accomplishment.
00:28:22To a career.
00:28:23That is building up to be that of a hall of Famer in her prime.
00:28:27Capturing the red pro.
00:28:28British women's championship.
00:28:30This past weekend.
00:28:31Of course.
00:28:32She has been a wonderful,
00:28:34wonderful champion.
00:28:35The only women's champion of the year.
00:28:37This is not a big deal.
00:28:38British Women's Championship this past weekend.
00:28:41Of course, she has been a Wonder of Stardom champion.
00:28:46One of the top championships in that great promotion,
00:28:49but also let's not forget,
00:28:52former Goddess of Stardom Tag Team Champion
00:28:55with Mariah May, the brand new AEW
00:28:59Women's World Champion coming out of All In.
00:29:02How do you think that stacks up?
00:29:04We've seen the two of them kind of a will they or won't they
00:29:07almost like Ross and Rachel on Friends.
00:29:11Where you stack up the experience
00:29:13and then Friends, they hang around
00:29:15and let you know the type of caliber athletes
00:29:17we have at Ring of Honor,
00:29:18especially in the women's division.
00:29:20Let's not forget Rachel Ellenring.
00:29:22Yes.
00:29:23Putting together quite a resume of her own.
00:29:27Of course, this is a non-title match,
00:29:28the title in safekeeping.
00:29:31Did they turn the temperature up?
00:29:35Ring that bell!
00:29:36Code of Honor adhered to.
00:29:38Well, the temperature will be nice and hot
00:29:39when AEW and Ring of Honor stars return to Texas.
00:29:45Everything's bigger in Texas,
00:29:46and so will be All In.
00:29:48Emanate from Globe Life Field in Arlington.
00:29:50Me and Bobby Crews got in trouble earlier,
00:29:52Caprice, before sound check.
00:29:54We were looking at the Nolan Ryan statue,
00:29:56the Pudge Rodriguez statue.
00:29:57We were having a great time down there.
00:30:00Oh, it's those Mina.
00:30:02You know, Rickabunny,
00:30:04you don't have to apologize for that, man.
00:30:05It's a blessing for us to be able to travel the world,
00:30:07and when you see sites that you are close to,
00:30:09you have to take advantage of that.
00:30:10Same way that Rachel's taking advantage
00:30:12of the strength she has over Mina Shirokawa.
00:30:14Yeah, look at that.
00:30:16The power advantage,
00:30:17and Rachel's a bit of a veteran herself,
00:30:19over 10 years in the ring,
00:30:20and, you know, great additions
00:30:22to the Ring of Honor women's division.
00:30:24Mina has a base, Mina has a base.
00:30:25Oh, good call.
00:30:27That boot now off the ropes.
00:30:29Oh, and the steam, oh!
00:30:32There's that Minnesota politeness, right?
00:30:34That's...
00:30:36Wow.
00:30:37Stepping over to bring it right back, gut-rich style.
00:30:41A little bit of AI coming out.
00:30:43Not just the WNBA.
00:30:45Showing love to the NBA Hall of Famer,
00:30:48as Mina, though, fighting out of it, waist-lock here.
00:30:52Breaks it, swing and a miss.
00:30:54Oh!
00:30:56That taunting, man.
00:30:57That taunting really gets in your head, Rickabunny,
00:30:58especially in the heat of the match.
00:31:00Had things going your way.
00:31:01That was Mina breaking up the momentum for Rachel.
00:31:03Now Rachel has to reset.
00:31:05Yeah, yeah, look at that, sweeps the leg.
00:31:07Oh!
00:31:08It's kinetic energy.
00:31:09It's the non-stop movement.
00:31:11It's what powers Mina Shirakawa.
00:31:14It's something about fighting with a smile on your face
00:31:16that just drains your opponents.
00:31:20Oh, through the ropes, look at that.
00:31:21The speed, the energy.
00:31:23And driving Rachel into the turnbuckle.
00:31:26Wow.
00:31:27Now, look at that big kick.
00:31:31And Shirakawa in the driver's seat.
00:31:33Lateral press here.
00:31:33One, two.
00:31:35Thing I like about Mina Shirakawa,
00:31:37she has these strings of offense that she puts together.
00:31:39One move after another,
00:31:40but you can't help to fall into it.
00:31:42She's mastered this stuff.
00:31:43Rickabunny, watch the power.
00:31:46And nice block there.
00:31:47Oh, big lariat!
00:31:48That lariat was right under the jaw.
00:31:49That might've been a knockout.
00:31:51And we've seen that finish off matches for Ellering before,
00:31:54but I think a wrestler the caliber of Mina Shirakawa,
00:31:57it's gonna take a little bit more, and Rachel knows that.
00:32:00There it is!
00:32:03And what a great test this is for both women.
00:32:05Earlier tonight, we saw the world champion, Athena.
00:32:09We saw Abaddon.
00:32:11Situation developing there.
00:32:14That's a scary situation.
00:32:15Oh!
00:32:16Certainly is.
00:32:18And red velvet in the mix, pun intended.
00:32:20And you gotta think, the winner of this match
00:32:25puts themselves in line.
00:32:26Shows you how important
00:32:27the Ring of Honor Women's Championship is.
00:32:29Athena has made that thing so popular.
00:32:33Certainly has, and it's been her dominance.
00:32:36Oh, goodness!
00:32:38Her record-setting reign
00:32:40as the bow from Ellering.
00:32:46Wow.
00:32:46Driven down.
00:32:47Sometimes the belt makes the person,
00:32:49sometimes the person makes the,
00:32:50what's the second?
00:32:51Cover!
00:32:52Two!
00:32:53Ooh!
00:32:55Well, Athena now sits just under 20 days
00:32:59from becoming the longest reigning champion ever
00:33:02in Ring of Honor, period.
00:33:04Wow, longest defenses in,
00:33:06longest days, most defenses!
00:33:07Oh!
00:33:08It's a big punch there.
00:33:10Big back fist from the rep pro champion.
00:33:12Big kick sends Rachel Ellering to the ground.
00:33:16There's a lot about Mina Shirakawa.
00:33:18She doesn't have the energy to capitalize on what she did.
00:33:22That space created for Mina to recover.
00:33:27And now, both women, as the match resets.
00:33:32Mina, who's held the white belt in stardom,
00:33:34that Wonder of Stardom Championship.
00:33:36The current rep pro champion.
00:33:37Oh, look at that!
00:33:38Forearm through the chest.
00:33:40It is Rachel driving through it.
00:33:42Mina!
00:33:43Mina and Rachel showing a lot of confidence,
00:33:45turning into each other, not away.
00:33:48Shows they're ready to fight.
00:33:49We're seeing a good one here, Ricobardi.
00:33:52Yeah, oh!
00:33:54Look at this!
00:33:55And Rachel took that as a challenge.
00:33:58And now, separation to close the gap.
00:34:00Here we go, Mina around the world, flying head scissor, no!
00:34:03Wow, side rush and leg sweep plants Rachel Ellering.
00:34:06Rachel, the head scissors from Rachel was blocked.
00:34:10And then Mina was a step ahead.
00:34:12Watch this, Ricobardi.
00:34:14Mina!
00:34:17One more!
00:34:19Calling for it here, Irish now reversed.
00:34:21Ellering sends Mina into the corner.
00:34:22Ellering!
00:34:23You can't tell a veteran like Ellering
00:34:24what you're going to do before you do it.
00:34:27Whoa!
00:34:28There you go, you tell them why you're doing it.
00:34:29Just like Rachel just did.
00:34:32Spinning uppercut aimed right at the head.
00:34:36You're absolutely right.
00:34:40Front face lock here.
00:34:43Fisherman hook.
00:34:45Yeah, the crowd loving the women's division.
00:34:47Wow!
00:34:48Pendulum out of the Fisherwoman.
00:34:50Two!
00:34:52Oh!
00:34:54And you saw Rachel wanting the count to speed up.
00:34:58Yeah.
00:34:59She could tell she had Mina right at the doorstep there.
00:35:02Anytime you do a full impact move
00:35:04that goes right into a pin, you think you have it.
00:35:07That just shows how much Mina thinks
00:35:09this whole division is important.
00:35:11Trying to stay in this fight as much as she can.
00:35:14And you see Ellering here.
00:35:16Uh-oh, call for the squish!
00:35:18Oh!
00:35:20But you were right, Caprice, she called it out.
00:35:21Mina now, crucifix.
00:35:23Two!
00:35:24Rick Knox right there to count the two.
00:35:26That was a tight crucifix.
00:35:28Oh!
00:35:30I definitely know Rachel had the advantage of this
00:35:32unless Mina's going to try to balance issue.
00:35:34Yep.
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:36Look at the poise, the footwork.
00:35:38Whoa!
00:35:39Mina driving the knee down through the chest.
00:35:40Holding on to the wrist, though.
00:35:41Holding on tight.
00:35:43Ah!
00:35:45Mina.
00:35:46I told you wrist control is everything, Rick Abadi.
00:35:48Mina getting Rachel in the right place.
00:35:51Certainly is.
00:35:53Now to the outside.
00:35:54It's Mina Shirakawa.
00:35:55All the way up top.
00:36:00Bombs away!
00:36:01What a beautiful frog splash!
00:36:02Hooks the leg!
00:36:03Two!
00:36:07Two count only.
00:36:09Rachel Ellering is in this fight.
00:36:13Whoa!
00:36:14That's your drop!
00:36:16Brain buster style.
00:36:19Oh, but can she get Rachel up?
00:36:20Rachel smartly fighting out of it.
00:36:23Four on there.
00:36:24Both women have exhausted so much energy
00:36:26at this point in the bout.
00:36:27It's going to be tough to land a move like that.
00:36:29Off the ropes.
00:36:31Oh!
00:36:31Boss woman!
00:36:32No!
00:36:33Counter!
00:36:34Counter!
00:36:35Mina!
00:36:36Mina!
00:36:36Trap!
00:36:37No way out of that!
00:36:38One!
00:36:39Two!
00:36:40Yeah!
00:36:41Got her!
00:36:42The winner of this match, Mina Shirakawa!
00:36:48Mina Shirakawa!
00:36:52A variation of the glamorous collection Mina Trap
00:36:56that she does.
00:36:58Picking up the victory!
00:37:01Wow!
00:37:02Mina with the trap itself is a dangerous move for Kavita,
00:37:05but with Mina being able to hook Rachel's ankle
00:37:08with her ankle and pin it,
00:37:09the only way out was blocked.
00:37:12Very smart move by Mina Shirakawa.
00:37:14And Mina Shirakawa,
00:37:16who's added the Retro British Women's Championship,
00:37:20now defeating a top contender in Ring of Honor.
00:37:22You got to think that she's suddenly
00:37:27in the top five for the television,
00:37:29if not the world title.
00:37:31Tell you what, Rachel's a little upset,
00:37:34and I would be too,
00:37:34but we know Rachel's going to fight another day.
00:37:37Let's see what Ring of Honor's for right here
00:37:39with this coat of honor.
00:37:41And the coat of honor adhered to,
00:37:43respect shown between these two great athletes.
00:37:47And not for nothing,
00:37:48Rachel has been recovering from that injury.
00:37:50Who is that?
00:37:51Whoa!
00:37:52Taya Valkyrie!
00:37:54What?
00:37:55Valkyrie sending Ellering out.
00:37:59Unfinished business.
00:38:02Uncalled for is more like it.
00:38:07Look at this, standing over Mina.
00:38:11Oh, come on.
00:38:13Leaving Mina laying after such a hard-fought bout.
00:38:18Sometimes you need to make your presence known.
00:38:21I think that's what Valkyrie just did.
00:38:23Is she proud of that though, Caprice?
00:38:25She is.
00:38:27And these two women have never fought before.
00:38:32And Taya, who maybe feels like this great star,
00:38:38the Rev Pro Champion is on her turf,
00:38:41comes and lets the world know this is Taya's Ring of Honor.
00:39:07The world, all over again.

00:40:08It's the flight attendant, Layla Grant,
00:40:10maybe the missing piece, the missing ingredient here.

00:40:14they add another piece that makes them available

00:41:05Contender for the world television title.

00:41:23Tags in and out, man.
00:41:25Yeah, spelling disaster here for LSG.
00:41:28Ooh.
00:41:30Wow, nice drop kick downstairs.
00:41:32Tandem, oh, man.
00:41:33Oh, Vince Carter-style cover, dude.
00:41:37See, he went between the legs with that.
00:41:38And did it twice, Rick.
00:41:39Yeah.
00:41:41Vince Carter, to my knowledge,
00:41:42somebody correct me, only did it once.
00:41:45And into the corner, though, LSG.
00:41:47GKM tags in.
00:41:49And GKM, part of this great trio
00:41:53that has formed in WrestlePro Tag Made.
00:41:57Look at this, GKM so fast.
00:41:59Dead, man.
00:42:00Unfortunately, he fasted himself into Darius Martin.
00:42:03Lateral press, gets a one there.
00:42:06Great teamwork as well, man.
00:42:07It's got to the point to where, top flight,
00:42:09they don't even have to see each other to hit these moves.
00:42:13Throws off, big back elbow.
00:42:15Continue to get better every week with each other.
00:42:17And already great, yeah, wheelbarrow elbow.
00:42:22Leg hook, Andretti.
00:42:23One count there.
00:42:25Add into the arsenal, that's already impressive.
00:42:29Each one of them, ultra impressive on their own.
00:42:31Absolutely.
00:42:32Make no mistake about it.
00:42:34Runs right in, Colton Charles.
00:42:36Big man.
00:42:37Is a mountain of a man.
00:42:40Off the ropes.
00:42:42Swing and a miss.
00:42:43Oh!
00:42:44Down by Andretti, yeah.
00:42:46And LSG, take it down, but GKM.
00:42:52Rocking action, Andretti there.
00:42:54That's what happens when your attention is diverted.
00:42:58And Irish whip into the corner.
00:43:00Charging in.
00:43:02Wow, great agility.
00:43:03Tag made, LSG back.
00:43:04Smartest move of the match right here
00:43:06is bringing Ashman Andretti into the corner.
00:43:11And look at this.
00:43:13Molding up.
00:43:13Oh, Colton Charles.
00:43:15Look at this, athlete.
00:43:19Lateral press, two.
00:43:22Two count only.
00:43:23First time we got to see Colton Charles in this bout.
00:43:25Yeah, Aces of Space Academy.
00:43:28You charge now.
00:43:29You got Aces of Space Academy in top flight.
00:43:31This match should be out of this world.
00:43:34See what you did there.
00:43:36Into the corner.
00:43:37Colton Charles having some fun.
00:43:39Oh, maybe not anymore.
00:43:40The double boots, back elbows.
00:43:43Andretti, oh, look at this.
00:43:45The strength.
00:43:45He's a strong man.
00:43:47Up and over, Andretti.
00:43:50Swing and a miss.
00:43:52Up the ladder, looking for the tag.
00:43:54LSG able to tag in.
00:43:56Andretti, caught by GKM.
00:43:59Smart move trying to keep him from tagging.
00:44:01Oh, he got the legal man.
00:44:04GKM still holding, holding foot though.
00:44:06Rolls through, makes the tag.
00:44:08Dante Martin in.
00:44:10Ticks out GKM.
00:44:12And another LSG in.
00:44:14Drop kick sends LSG down.
00:44:15Look at the way Dante Martin just shoots up in the air.
00:44:19Dante in total control.
00:44:21Body, double leap in Rana.
00:44:25That takes relentless timing.
00:44:29Unbelievable athleticism from Dante.
00:44:32In the corner, catches LSG.
00:44:35Sends LSG out.
00:44:36And now GKM, no one home in the corner there.
00:44:39They're making GKM the only person in the ring,
00:44:41Rick and Bonnie.
00:44:43Oh, have neutralized LSG.
00:44:45Springboard high across Bonnie.
00:44:49Hook the leg to Colton Charles in to break things up.
00:44:53Yeah, and I didn't see GKM kick out of that.
00:44:55Oh, what?
00:44:56Wow.
00:44:58Unable to get out of it.
00:44:59Darius Martin there.
00:45:00Oh, wow.
00:45:03Taking out the big man.
00:45:04One shot at a time.
00:45:06Boom.
00:45:08Complete shot of Darius Martin there.
00:45:12GKM again by himself.
00:45:13He doesn't realize.
00:45:14It's the light at the end of the tunnel right here.
00:45:17What?
00:45:19Wow.
00:45:21One, two, that's it.
00:45:26The winners of this match,
00:45:27the team of Top Flight Connection, Andretti.
00:45:32Just launching Dante Martin.
00:45:36What's that?
00:45:3610, 12 feet in the air.
00:45:39He's stomping from the air.
00:45:41The air walker.
00:45:42Wow.
00:45:44What a win for Andretti at Top Flight.
00:45:49Laila Gray in ground control.
00:45:52Yeah.
00:45:53Skywalking stomp there.
00:45:55Laila Gray taking it in.
00:45:57How do I switch my flight?
00:45:58Hey!
00:45:59I'm flying American now, okay?
00:46:01What?
00:46:02You want to go on Top Flight?
00:46:03I want to fly Top Flight.
00:46:04Who doesn't want to win?
00:46:18Grand Slam comes to Brisbane, Australia.
00:46:20The next leg of AEW's Grand Slam goes down under.
00:46:24Allow me to reintroduce myself.
00:46:27I'm the best in AEW.
00:46:30Top Gods, out.
00:46:31All Elite Wrestling presents Grand Slam Australia
00:46:34from Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane.

00:47:03Weighing 285 pounds, EJ and Duca.
00:47:11EJ and Duca undefeated here in Ring of Honor.
00:47:14We saw members of the judges' family
00:47:18in the house here tonight.
00:47:19And how many athletes have to duck?
00:47:22There they are once again.
00:47:26How many athletes have to duck under the Tony Tron?
00:47:28Yeah.
00:47:31He's a walking mountain.
00:47:32Absolutely Rick and Morty.
00:47:34Somebody this big, 6'7", 290 pounds, 7% body fat.
00:47:41Explosive athlete.
00:47:44Former NFL star, I'll tell ya.
00:47:49The judge is in the house presiding over this court.
00:47:54Let's go to Bobby Crews for his opponent.
00:47:56His opponent, Demo Diamond.
00:48:00Well, Demo Diamond competing here
00:48:03in the Texas area extensively.
00:48:05Two years in this sport, getting great opportunities, man.
00:48:09Chained by Lou Gotti.
00:48:11There he goes.
00:48:12Not for nothing, the man that helped break Athena,
00:48:14the Women's World Champion.
00:48:15That's what I'm saying.
00:48:16Some great trainers.
00:48:18And I'm sure when you get somebody,
00:48:22a student, get an opportunity,
00:48:23it's always a great deal.
00:48:24Even just, you know, this is the first time we've seen
00:48:26a Duca going against somebody almost the same size.
00:48:29Yeah.
00:48:30Oh, and the coat of honor adhered to.
00:48:32Like those trunks with him, Duca,
00:48:33that dove with the fire is the symbol of the Holy Spirit.
00:48:40He's coming up on top here.
00:48:41And that might be, with due respect to Mr. Diamond,
00:48:45who you might need to make a call to in this bout.
00:48:49That's also showing that Duca's not only physically strong,
00:48:51but he's spiritually strong as well.
00:48:55It's interesting that you pointed out,
00:48:57Demo Diamond, he is almost as tall as a Duca.
00:49:01Yeah.
00:49:02Maybe not as strong, you see.
00:49:04Not as strong, but also you got to know his age.
00:49:06It comes with age, it comes with experience.
00:49:09And Duca's sending him off.
00:49:10Oh my God, that hammer.
00:49:12Yeah.
00:49:13That hammer, that's something that he pulls out
00:49:16of nowhere and that hammer would take you out.
00:49:18He could hit it multiple times in a match
00:49:20and every time it's-
00:49:21Glade!
00:49:22Yeah, the speed, that explosion.
00:49:27He's asking for one more here.
00:49:29The crowd is responding to Nduka.
00:49:34You know how hard it is to break a diamond?
00:49:36You're about to watch Nduka do it.
00:49:38Well, he's about to break some ribs, Nduka.
00:49:42Oh, a diamond able to get out of the way.
00:49:44Smart move there.
00:49:45Maybe able to capitalize on this 21-year-old's
00:49:47going to need to stick and move here.
00:49:48Yeah.
00:49:49Oh!
00:49:50Nice punch!
00:49:51My goodness.
00:49:52Off the ropes.
00:49:54Right back right there, Rick Abadis.
00:49:56With sudden.
00:49:58We are watching something special develop before our eyes.
00:50:01My God, you see, look at it.
00:50:02Look at the level change here.
00:50:03Something's changing in Nduka's eyes.
00:50:06With EJ and Nduka off the ropes.
00:50:08Nduka!
00:50:10Oh, my goodness.
00:50:11That spine buster had diamond about 10 feet in the air.
00:50:15The highest spine bust I've ever seen.
00:50:19Glaring to the camera.
00:50:20It's a different level, Rick Abadis.
00:50:24I think it's time for Exodus.
00:50:25Yeah.
00:50:26Oh, rise!
00:50:28You may be preceded to.
00:50:34The winner of this match is EJ and Nduka!
00:50:40Yeah.
00:50:42This is a special athlete comparison.
00:50:44You said, I'm the one you've been looking for.
00:50:46It's me.
00:50:48And I believe in Rick Abadis.
00:50:50My goodness.
00:50:51If you draw this man's name on a contract,
00:50:53how do you even prepare?
00:50:55There you see.
00:50:57The video game characters
00:50:58don't look as good as this, Rick Abadis.
00:51:02A sensational, decisive victory
00:51:04for EJ and Nduka here at Tonight Fast.
00:51:06Lexi there!
00:51:08Standing by for her guest, Rachel Ellering.
00:51:11Rachel Ellering, I'd like to personally welcome you back
00:51:15to Ring of Honor.
00:51:16Tonight, you wrestled in your second match back,
00:51:18post-injury, and it was against Mina from Stardom.
00:51:22Now, you put on a really strong fight.
00:51:23You should be extremely proud of yourself,
00:51:25but unfortunately, you did come up short.
00:51:27So, how are you feeling otherwise?
00:51:29Well, thank you for the welcome back, Lexi.
00:51:30I appreciate it.
00:51:31And, you know, losing stings.
00:51:33It always does.
00:51:34Mina's tough.
00:51:35You know, she's really tough,
00:51:36but, you know, tonight was proof
00:51:38that I just have to keep getting better.
00:51:39I gotta keep working harder.
00:51:40Better, better, better, better, better.
00:51:42Sorry, guys, to interrupt you.
00:51:43I'm looking for Ring of Honor.
00:51:45Oh, R-O-H.
00:51:47You got it, girlie.
00:51:49Yeah, well, nice to meet you.
00:51:50I'm Holly Cameron.
00:51:52This is like deja vu.
00:51:54We have met.
00:51:55No, no, no, I do not like mustard at all.
00:51:57But, I do remember now.
00:52:00You are Rhett.
00:52:02It is good to see you again, Rhett.
00:52:04In fact, I really enjoyed your match tonight.
00:52:07Who did you wrestle again?
00:52:08Okay, well, more initials, Rachel Ellery.
00:52:12And I wrestled Mina tonight, Harley.
00:52:15Of course, and did you win?
00:52:18No, I didn't.
00:52:18Oh! No, I didn't.
00:52:20Ugh, ugh, ugh.
00:52:22Hey, but you know what they say.
00:52:23If you fall down five times, just get up.
00:52:30Anyway, it is very nice to see you again, Rhett.
00:52:33Hey, Lexi, just a show of hands.
00:52:35Are we hiring anyone these days?
00:52:37Like, what is this?
00:52:38Hey.
00:52:38And you?
00:52:39Don't give up on them dreams, kid.
00:52:42Kid.
00:52:43Kid.
00:52:44Kid.
00:52:45Oh.
00:52:46Kid.
00:52:49First, she crashes the press conference,
00:52:51then she calls Rachel Ellery a kid?
00:52:54The match is set for one fall day, 20 minute time limit.
00:52:58Introducing first,
00:52:59and accompanied by Nick Camerano,
00:53:03weighing 235 pounds,
00:53:05Jacoby Watts.
00:53:10You know, with all this hot weather in Arlington, Caprice,
00:53:12I was hoping it would get so hot
00:53:14that that book would light on fire,
00:53:15that book of blasphemy.
00:53:17Yeah, I think it has me in it so many times.
00:53:20Each and every one of you can be saved by Jacoby Watts.
00:53:23All you gotta do is believe.
00:53:25All you gotta do is believe.
00:53:28Believe in what?
00:53:30Yeah, not the same thing I believe in,
00:53:32I can tell you that much.
00:53:33No, we have so many,
00:53:36we are blessed by the diversity of our faith
00:53:38here in Ring of Honor.
00:53:40Maybe his religion is called Jacoby Watson.
00:53:44Well, we shall see.
00:53:46He's a Watson witness.
00:53:49As we await his opponent.
00:53:52His opponent, being accompanied by John Silver,
00:53:56wrestling out of the keep,
00:53:58representing Dark Order,
00:54:01Evil Uno.
00:54:05Evil Uno, who stepped up to the plate
00:54:08a couple of weeks ago,
00:54:09to the natural Dustin Rhodes.
00:54:12He led that cowardly attack.
00:54:14We had that wild eight man.
00:54:17We saw the Undisputed Kingdom,
00:54:20the Dark Order in Wembley.
00:54:22We also saw the Von Erics and Dustin Rhodes
00:54:25and Sammy Guevara though too, Caprice.
00:54:27Evil Uno had changed men,
00:54:29but maybe this is who he was all along.
00:54:32That's the only, you know, it's very rare
00:54:33to disagree with you, Rick Abate.
00:54:35I'm gonna disagree with you here.
00:54:36Okay.
00:54:37Because I believe Evil Uno was turned into this person
00:54:40because everybody questioned his aggression.
00:54:42They questioned what he could do.
00:54:45His aggression.
00:54:46They questioned what he could do.
00:54:47And then after frustration and not being able to prove it,
00:54:49it changed him.
00:54:51Come here, my friend.
00:54:52My name is Jacoby Watts.
00:54:56And I'm trying to grow my flock.
00:54:59So, you and your purple headed goofballs
00:55:04want to join me?
00:55:10Mr. Jacoby, I greatly appreciate your offer,
00:55:14but Evil Uno is a one called man.
00:55:17Oh, goodness.
00:55:23Well, the bell has not rung.
00:55:25And Uno with a big knife head shot.
00:55:26There is the bell.
00:55:28Uno not choosing to use the microphone,
00:55:30giving it to Posey.
00:55:33Oh, the shots fired here.
00:55:34Oh, knife head shot.
00:55:39You can already see the whips coming up
00:55:41on the chest of Jacoby.
00:55:45And I saw Uno this past week.
00:55:48It was Uno, Chugs and Nyla
00:55:51talking about their love of video games.
00:55:53This week's topic, demo discs
00:55:54on the All Elite Arcade podcast.
00:55:57Nothing demonstration about this.
00:55:59Oh, goodness.
00:55:59Oh!
00:56:01Trying to outsmart Uno.
00:56:03Instead, delivering the chop to that exposed spine.
00:56:06I wonder if Evil Uno is going to do a disc track.
00:56:11Well, as long as he doesn't tell no lies about me,
00:56:14I won't tell no truths about him.
00:56:15Oh, Riccoboni.
00:56:17They not like us.
00:56:18Yes.
00:56:19Wow.
00:56:20And Uno!
00:56:21Wow!
00:56:22Big clothesline.
00:56:25And the truth would be
00:56:26that I think this man is very talented.
00:56:27I think this man has earned the opportunities he's gotten.
00:56:33Jacoby?
00:56:34No, Uno.
00:56:35Okay.
00:56:36I got a lot of truths to talk about Jacoby
00:56:38if we're going that route.
00:56:39And look.
00:56:44Oh, look at this!
00:56:45Yeah.
00:56:47The only thing clean about Camarado
00:56:49is that t-shirt he's wearing.
00:56:51He done messed his mind all up.
00:56:52Listen to Jacoby.
00:56:56Of course, Camarado on the outside,
00:56:58recovering from surgery as the shot under the jaw there.
00:57:03Plants on Uno.
00:57:05Oh, and here it comes.
00:57:07Oh!
00:57:08That revival style runaway trade.
00:57:10Clothesline.
00:57:12Hooks the leg, too.
00:57:14Can't take away the ability of Jacoby Watts,
00:57:17putting a stream of offense together to stay in control.
00:57:20All of it heading towards the cores of Evil Uno.
00:57:24Oh, look at that.
00:57:25He had Uno on his shoulders off the ropes.
00:57:26Watts, that's the clothesline.
00:57:28And it's Uno with a big boot.
00:57:30And big DDT!
00:57:32Uno able to put the brakes on.
00:57:35Wow!
00:57:37Big kick!
00:57:39You know, it's good to see Evil Uno in singles competition.
00:57:42We're so used to seeing him in tag competition
00:57:44with the dark order,
00:57:45but to see him in singles competition,
00:57:47you get to appreciate Uno a little more.
00:57:51Yeah, you get to see a little bit more of his power,
00:57:53his snap movement, his quick brain.
00:57:55Look at the end things here.
00:57:57Uno!
00:57:59Oh, driver!
00:58:02That's gotta be enough.
00:58:04Cover, two.
00:58:05Yeah.
00:58:06That's it!
00:58:09The winner of this match, Evil Uno!
00:58:14Evil Uno in single competition,
00:58:17picking up a victory here tonight over Jacoby Watts.
00:58:21Watts might want to study a different book next time,
00:58:24because tonight it was all Uno.
00:58:26Uno holding that power,
00:58:27driving to make sure all the blood rushed to the head
00:58:30of Jacoby Watts.
00:58:31He drops him on it.
00:58:32It's a sheer drop and an automatic knockout.
00:58:34Nice win by Evil Uno.

01:00:29time all-american and the greatest athlete to enter this state and he's
01:00:36going to show you proof right now I rest my case
01:00:42well he wasn't lying Riccoboni all those tough facts about Josh Woods this
01:00:46match is set for one fall of a 20 minute time limit introducing the opponent
01:00:50Barry Brown. Woods has a challenge on his hands here though Caprice you're right no
01:00:54lies told Barron Brown 40 caliber member of the Stray Dog Army in New Japan
01:00:59strong code of honor here too with Bateman who a lot of longtime Ring of
01:01:05Honor fans are familiar with but it's gonna be a great test to contrast the
01:01:08styles here contrasting styles and Josh Wood are more pure wrestlers in Ring of
01:01:14Honor he wrestled his whole life freestyle one more pure champion won
01:01:20that title yet before Dishonored 2001 look at that nice waist lock and just
01:01:25remaining control Caprice you're an amateur wrestler yep Woods just maintain
01:01:30that high ground on everything that's what I mean about a pure wrestlers one
01:01:35that is a born wrestling they grew up wrestling it was not grew up watching
01:01:39wrestling he grew up wrestling wrestling on the mats getting reps in wrestling
01:01:44during the summer recreation and all and it becomes part of us MMA and all has a
01:01:50huge background in a very dangerous man so it's Barry Brown
01:01:5550 caliber here and charging in and I've seen what Brown's capable of in New
01:02:03Japan strong goodness that knee may have knocked Brown completely out
01:02:09in control now just taking it home Rick body Oh No
01:02:19puts the leg no to that's it the winner of this match the technical
01:02:25beast Josh Woods we got to get a name on that we've seen variations of that
01:02:33from the tombstone position a full set of 540 on Barrett Brown who's a
01:02:41tremendous athlete would make short order up here tonight
01:02:45anytime I see woods in this type of form man I just wait to see championships
01:02:50around his waist again and it may not be soon before long before Woods gets that
01:02:57kind of opportunity what a mess that would be he against current pure

01:05:39Braxton is a wrestler it's not a high flyer specialist wrestler
01:05:48Leila Cray bringing a lot to Braxton not a lot of allowing Braxton to get a

01:09:40Blake Christian a man making headlines all across the world including his
01:09:46tremendous best of super juniors performance picking up five wins in
01:09:50Japan in that grueling tournament a little bit of a change in attitude here
01:09:57though Capri's yeah but attitude has been stacking up the wins for all heart
01:10:01like it or not man it's a different guy but the heart is still the same
01:10:08team been hanging out with the walking riot Missy Hyatt I'll tell you what you
01:10:12start getting advice from legends like that who knows where you're gonna go we
01:10:17take it about the cruise for his opponent his opponent Rosario
01:10:21Rosario Grillo oh come on Grillo a great athlete trained at the
01:10:27Nightmare Factory by QT Marshall and the great staff there oh goodness but the
01:10:37training really doesn't equip you with all due respect to sign language you
01:10:42know that's it from getting just blindsided
01:10:46like a gorilla warfare yeah I'm not used to that and we're from Christian but
01:10:52it's who he is now man sometimes you just have to accept you keep having that
01:10:56hope home say stretching them out right here the shoulders yeah my goodness
01:11:03absolutely brutal this thing about Blake maybe you've seen half line stuff with
01:11:10him but this change the attitude has made him dangerous from all sectors man
01:11:14and this is what you need to be and this type of sport not here just for the
01:11:17fans to make the fans go who's win the matches and here Grillo you see nursing
01:11:22that left arm he's still delivering these shots here does he have enough
01:11:26strength to get him out of the corner he does off the ropes oh Grillo into the
01:11:29corner up and out to the outside double heels with with respect to Liger almost
01:11:37twice as quick as Liger used to hit those out of nowhere now I'm thinking
01:11:40he's finished Riccobono, I'll let you call this one, oh it's Blake Christian, oh my goodness
01:11:45and that's the difference he used to go for the Fosbury Club it was flashy it was
01:11:49showy that was all impact you said it going right through the ropes you
01:11:53absolutely said it Riccobono he's past trying to woo the fans he wants to win
01:11:57and that's exactly what Christian has been doing watch this, that's it Riccobono, it's over
01:12:03cover two three
01:12:07the winner of this match Blake Christian you know when Riccobono has athletes
01:12:14emerging like the returning Leo Rush like athletes we could see down the line like hologram
01:12:22Blake Christian I think intrinsically knew he had to step up his intensity step up his game
01:12:28and those clashes that he has along the way to get himself a title detention
01:12:33we're seeing that intensity that closing speed here tonight Blake Christian your winner
01:12:42four of us will show the world there are only three letters that matter B-C-C for the first
01:12:52time ever Jazz Wars brings all four members of the Blackpool Combat Club to one amazing collection

01:13:33the premier athletes and this is Aria Daivari
01:13:41now many people have been saying that the premier athletes
01:13:45versus the conglomeration is the best feud of the year some say the best feud in the history
01:13:53of professional wrestling my guys are undefeated wait Tony Nese beat a member last week a few
01:14:01weeks ago no and tonight the result will be the same as Aria Daivari shows his class against the

01:14:24oil salesman is this I'm starting to believe Mark Sterling gets his information from the
01:14:28same 100 people that answered the found a few questions Daivari has his hands full here tonight
01:14:37the former ring of honor world television champion
01:14:48this match is set for one more day 20 minute time flight introducing the opponent
01:14:52Redskin of Kanagawa Japan weighing 220 pounds he is representing the conglomeration
01:15:01the stone pit bull Tomohiro Ishii
01:15:11wow the presence this man has Caprice just this walk alone lets you know that you're
01:15:17you're standing in front of that walk you're you're in the wrong place yeah former ring of
01:15:21honor world television champion the first man ever to win the television title outside the
01:15:27United States also one of the greatest never open weight champions in new Japan history
01:15:33and to correct the record let's let's let the fans at home know yes the conglomeration the
01:15:40premier athletes have certainly had their issues but it was Ishii that defeated Tony Nese in a
01:15:45great bout let's make no mistakes about it but Ishii was victorious as the bell sound that's
01:15:51Mark Sterling kind of adding a little fluff to the to the cake there it's Mark Sterling math
01:15:56and would you say did so much to look forward to in 2025 already barely halfway through 2024
01:16:05because forbidden door comes to London August 24th 2025 ticket information coming soon
01:16:12wow
01:16:19a great matchup on the way here conglomeration premier athletes continuing
01:16:25I'll tell you what the conglomeration such a great set of athletes when you
01:16:28have about the world champion Mark Frisco you think about Orange Cassidy Kyle O'Reilly
01:16:32Willa Nightingale I love all of these different people all the same mindset
01:16:38and not like these oh goodness almost like factory lab built athletes like Daivari Josh
01:16:43Woods Tony Nese and the money and influence of Mark Sterling
01:16:56let that barn door open for Ishii to come rushing in with a big shoulder
01:17:00and it leaves Daivari staggering Daivari in the corner now Ishii
01:17:10oh goodness and he's chops man precision tune right into the chest you can see
01:17:16Stone Pit Bull taking his time approaching Aria of course Ishii no stranger yeah two menaces on
01:17:24the outside we all know what's going on with Stokely Hathaway
01:17:28and getting his nose in the Stone Pit Bull's business as of late
01:17:33as now Ari's trying to break the momentum here it's not going to change anything look at the
01:17:39dominance inside of the ring the way they have something in mind at least yeah but you're right
01:17:47I mean Ishii's one of the most composed the way he's standing in the middle of the ring he's like
01:17:52almost giving Ari a chance to get in the ring he's like okay come on in this is where I want to
01:17:56handle my business I'm not going outside where I'm outnumbered and we've seen this happen before
01:18:00when you talk about some of the great pitchers were just down the street from Globe Life Stadium
01:18:05the world champion Texas Rangers Major League Baseball and some of the great pitchers in MLB
01:18:10Caprice their heart rate's going to be a little bit higher than what we're used to but they're
01:18:14great pitchers in MLB Caprice their heart rates stay the same no matter what they have that poise
01:18:18and that's one of the things Ishii is so good at that cold-blooded athlete that's right controlling
01:18:25your heart rate is a big thing it's a gift if you can do it as an athlete comes with meditation
01:18:34and it's that vision quest and right now the quest is to defeat Daivari of the premier athletes
01:18:41just as he did against Tony Nese
01:18:52get Sterling oh no oh my goodness yes oh may have broken his hand yeah with Stone
01:19:01oh Stone never wins against metal Riccoboni I don't care who you are
01:19:08it's almost sparking the hand of Ishii so many small bones in your hands Riccoboni you can break
01:19:16there's almost 200 bones in your hand my goodness
01:19:22and we've seen we've seen athletes oh come on break their hands chopping yeah other athletes
01:19:27yet alone getting smashed into the steel steps or into the post Daivari and now take a bit of a
01:19:35victory lap I wouldn't do this you got to stay on because just like you said with that control
01:19:40breathing Ishii is catching his breath with that hand it takes a lot man wrist control hand
01:19:46controlling anytime you heard a hand of a wrestler man you're eliminating a lot of the offense
01:19:50because you have to grab your opponent to be able to put a move on them and Ishii in trouble here
01:19:56he's focused on that hand he couldn't even try and block that oh yeah into the turnbuckle and
01:20:01that arm ringer now oh and look at that are we right back to it this is smart man you feel about
01:20:09already the way you want to but being able to put something together and staying with it knowing
01:20:13that it's a weakness now and the wrestler's not going to show you that weakness unless it's really
01:20:16getting to him you can see right there in the face of somebody that doesn't have a lot of motions
01:20:20in a motion of pain right now absolutely the crowd rallying behind the former ring of honor
01:20:27world tv champ the member of the conglomeration but it is the premier athletes ari davari
01:20:34aria in full control here yeah working a great game game plan staying on the fingers now fingers
01:20:42and wrists oh right back to wow yeah oh trying to fire back oh ishii in a lot of trouble he can't
01:20:52even he's almost choosing oh he can't protect anything but that hand giving it up there yeah
01:21:01see every time ari was hitting uh stone he continued to rise he should continue to get up
01:21:08and ishii delivering the chops giving up the hand trying to fight through it it's such a big part of
01:21:14his offense oh there's a shoulder tackle on that low center of gravity driving the hips up through
01:21:22the shoulders through the chest of davari oh looking for that saito suplex oh block grabbing
01:21:28hold to it took a little more time from ishii and ari knew that that's why i'm saying it's great
01:21:33great game two count only see that suplex took a lot out of ari right there it took him a long
01:21:46time to kick out of it and he did not go right back to the offense oh wait a minute sterling
01:21:51here it's the attention getter and that split second was just enough for davari to get out of
01:21:56the way roll up to two count only that was a high stack rick abani ari's in this fight my goodness
01:22:04up the ladder with a clothesline get him
01:22:08touch the suit it's worth it it's worth the risk go for it oh tell you what sterling's doing his
01:22:14job rick abani i think that's why you hate him so much well every time sterling's got the attention
01:22:19of ishii
01:22:21block waist lock it's not going to work this time
01:22:33and backfired downstairs in the basement
01:22:40the winner of this match the stone pit bull tomohiro ishii
01:22:47sterling went to well too many times on that one and it led to a victory for the former
01:22:54ring of honor world television champion tomohiro ishii here in arlington and that one was just a
01:23:02little bit extra sweet for anybody that has been wronged in the past by smart mark sterling and
01:23:10that list is long to breathe yeah i think everybody in the crowd is still standing
01:23:14and it's because of mark sterling not standing well there he is and the victory
01:23:20from the new japan legend member of the conglomeration former world tv champ tomohiro ishii
01:23:33it is the event that unites the professional wrestling world
01:23:39and now for the first time ever this forbidden door opens to an entirely new land and london

01:24:55well thank you bobby cruz for our pure rules the pure title is on the line in our main event
01:25:00introducing first the challenger being accompanied by sarah pentacle
01:25:05wrestling out of johannesburg south africa he is representing spanish
01:25:11project
01:25:18he certainly is and sometimes it is that flow state it is the idea there we see our judges
01:25:26former world champions jerry lynn and christopher daniels and the newest member of the board of
01:25:31directors paul white has held many world championships across his hall of fame career
01:25:36we have a big board and we certainly do as angelico likes to be in that flow state
01:25:46and here tonight the opportunity of a lifetime coming off a big win to earn this bout
01:25:52angelico looking to put that training from mexico south africa to the test
01:25:59be accompanied by shane taylor rustic out of pittsburgh pennsylvania weighing 191 pounds
01:26:07he is representing shane taylor promotions and he is the ring of honor pure wrestling champion
01:26:22moriarty making history at death before dishonor in this very building becoming
01:26:28the ring of honor pure champion but caprice will he be a one defense wonder here tonight
01:26:38facing a man who is so skilled in multi-disciplines as is moriarty
01:26:45that's a palpable question rick abani palpable question
01:26:51it's going to be a great matchup this is this is a matchup that i never knew i wanted to see
01:26:56until it was signed right as we take a look here
01:27:03yes there you see referee mike posey with the ring of honor
01:27:07pure championship that's what it's all about we heard the rules
01:27:14and now here tonight championship on the line interesting to note angelico trained by negro
01:27:22navarra in mexico at the toriman dojo the same school as okada abushi and rocky romero technique
01:27:29and submission whereas moriarty trained by skyda who's almost you know that's almost like
01:27:38apples and oranges in the lucha world they're two of the most accomplished trainers they are
01:27:42but they have such different styles that they're almost tailor-made to face each other
01:27:47great matchup but angelico was born with this flow state mentality learning in mexico the only
01:27:56place he's really learned wrestling but moriarty most of his wrestling was learned in the states
01:28:00and traveled to learn other genres of wrestling and so this is going to be a huge test for
01:28:06moriarty because of the background that angelico has because that background is what moriarty uses
01:28:12against other opponents look at this great wrist control here double wrist lock takeover
01:28:18over the head and a wrist lock here on helico not fluster though you don't see the urgency
01:28:24and that's okay yeah he thinks one or two moves ahead he has that calm breath calm breathing
01:28:29staying calm is a big deal recombining because if you if you start breathing hard you make your
01:28:33body think another win it starts to panic he's able to keep his body calm watch the heel break
01:28:38yep it's flowing and look at that nice cover there one count and helico's like water
01:28:49and moriarty also not flustered and that was one of the keys i think against wheeler yuta back at
01:28:54death before dishonor was moriarty he just remained calm he was always thinking he was
01:29:00countering counters as we see a duck down into the waist lock here but taking advantage of the
01:29:04period of vision is coming in to wrestle not to fight and uh when you have wheeler yuta in there
01:29:10it was very personal with wheeler yuta and moriarty there's nothing too personal about
01:29:14this it's a title defense but the styles are what we have to worry about with moriarty
01:29:21nice side headlock here of course it's two weeks ago moriarty successful improving ground action
01:29:26against action andretti but andretti had that high flying style you see on helico remaining with the
01:29:32technical style wow look at that whoa it's the stuff this division is made for
01:29:43and a great series of counters there i tell you what if moriarty tried that in a regular
01:29:48match you'd get punched in the face but you can't do that here yeah it takes great restraint and
01:29:53that's the cool look at this ducking down wow nice take over there
01:30:02and moriarty going back to the waist lock that's almost like his safety blanket that's almost his
01:30:06starting point yeah helico being cocky as well standing straight up allowing moriarty to come
01:30:11right into his personal space wow springing out of it and both these men i'm just looking at him
01:30:18in fantastic condition off the ropes both physically and cardiovascular you gotta be to
01:30:25do a little a little uh cha-cha there off the rope sweeps the leg now things are heating up
01:30:31cover there gets a one back to the feet sweep down and helico gets a one count there now both men
01:30:37another thing in helico has is that ability to dictate
01:30:40a pace in the match beating up and slowing down frustrates your opponent because you
01:30:45yeah i didn't want to interrupt shane taylor but beating up is slowing down at wheel
01:30:52misses with your cardio now one interesting thing a drop toe hold there
01:30:57on the outside it's been made very clear since the pure division has been relaunched as a nice
01:31:03stf style move moriarty trying to get to the ropes he does on helico gonna have to break
01:31:07we wait for bobby cruz that is rope break number one used by the name moriarty you see
01:31:13shane taylor almost like a corner man it's very impressive to have moriarty
01:31:19in the world first he's not on your level he's not on your level let's go get a pure check
01:31:25and some words of encouragement and that is legal now if caprice if shane or
01:31:32serpentico get involved physically the title changes hands and they are suspended indefinitely
01:31:39yeah not just being disqualified no yes and that has been a staple of the rules
01:31:46since the division was relaunched in september 2020 and look at this wrist lock here great
01:31:51exchange there and this is you know emblematic of on helico's training for brian dixon's all-star
01:31:58wrestling in england where he went in his second year learned a lot of what he does from ultimo
01:32:04dragon believe it or not as liam moriarty now going up the ladder with a cobra twist the 6-3
01:32:09frame of on helico and he's got that wrist caprice which is not only for leverage but i think out of
01:32:14necessity to hold on helico's frame in place exactly what it's for and helico's so flexible
01:32:19able to move out of stuff with that flow state mentality moriarty trying to lock him in watch
01:32:23the pin nice trap two we saw that earlier from minashirakawa too early to put it on though
01:32:34these flash pins are what the peer division really accentuates in because you can win a match at any
01:32:38time but it's very rare to see moriarty get at the first rope break you're absolutely right caprice
01:32:45moriarty does not like to go to the ropes he's a lot like josh woods in that regard another former
01:32:49pure champion that he chooses to try and force his opponents to the ropes and he will do everything
01:32:57he can not to use them he used the rope break rules to win the pure title yes yeah both men
01:33:03had exhausted the rope break so he used the ropes as a leverage you're absolutely right
01:33:08stepping over though speaking of leverage look at this high leverage from the 6-3 on helico
01:33:13this long frame and you look great oh my goodness kwaito on the bow and arrow stretch roll up two
01:33:25and going back to the wrist shoulder to shoulder
01:33:28and it's almost like there's comfort every time there's a lock-up moriarty almost like a magnet
01:33:33swinging a miss he wants that connection waist lock here drop down and caprice if this was going
01:33:41on points right now if you're the judges you gotta think on helico's ahead only because of
01:33:45the rope break otherwise this has been a pretty close match yeah i can't disagree with that uh
01:33:50watch this sweet man ducking both of them this shows that moriarty does his homework as well
01:33:55as well nice roll up two oh swinging around hold on look at this oh border city stretch
01:34:02that border city stretch is right in front of the ropes moriarty knows he might not get a submission
01:34:07but he's gonna let and helico go towards the ropes look at this
01:34:12oh and that little kiss kiss on the hand
01:34:26the way in helico is holding that shoulders as if uh moriarty knows something about in helico that uh
01:34:32and helico didn't know maybe he was spying around the nurse's room
01:34:36nothing for you he's shook right now oh you hear shane taylor and that's got to be caprice you've
01:34:41been on shane taylor's team you've been on the opposite side of the ring against shane taylor
01:34:47shane taylor just continuing to talk it is not something that you can drown out that's got to
01:34:53be weighing on the mind of in helico at this point also you're absolutely right shane taylor has a
01:34:57undeniable uh unique voice that you can hear in the room you know his voice
01:35:01nice inside ankle trip by moriarty holds on to the ropes look at this on helico trying the best he can
01:35:10makes a great great coach for shane taylor as well because out of this whole crowd of everybody
01:35:14talking moriarty's every here shane taylor's voice and that's the only person on helico can hear too
01:35:22and that's gotta be just rattling ping-ponging around in the mind of in helico who's trying to
01:35:26fight back who's trying to roll out goes down to one leg through the legs and that's the only
01:35:31look at that leg switch traps the leg pushes out has the ankle into the ankle lock knee bar ankle
01:35:37lock combo here from on helico and moriarty's got to get the rope we thought about it wow
01:35:46and it's rope break number two used by lee moriarty you have to know how impressive this
01:35:52is rick abani is very rare for moriarty to reach for these ropes he's won matches without rope
01:35:57breaks on that helico now the trash talk you hear taylor saying breathe both men now resetting
01:36:07in that that block position has the fake out picks the ankle again trying to step up trap holds on
01:36:13great wow right back to that shoulder and that all happened because moriarty stepped on that wrist
01:36:20and was able to hold on helico in place it is those micro movements that make moriarty so
01:36:25successful oh my goodness stretching here at the delts on the shoulder you gotta snap it back
01:36:29or just keep that bow and arrow type movement oh we saw this earlier from on helico
01:36:35and now we're seeing oh no from moriarty oh no oh into the bridge
01:36:44i'll tell you what rick abani imagine being at the gym and stretching you get to that point
01:36:47where you can't stretch anymore and then the chain is just pushing you down that's exactly
01:36:52number two used by angelico wow and we are at two rope breaks
01:37:00and that's a great comparison i think everybody knows that feeling caprice the wrist lock here
01:37:05and going back to the shoulder is the pure champion lee moriarty here's the reason why
01:37:11moriarty is the champion putting the game playing together so they can own a body part
01:37:15and now looking for the irish whip drop down to one knee reverse moriarty swinging around
01:37:25blocks the double axe and now it's moriarty back to the shoulder
01:37:32and listen to taylor encouraging moriarty off the ropes moriarty shoulder tackle
01:37:38sends on helico down lateral press two how important was that shoulder tackle
01:37:43ginomi see at the beginning of the match but moriarty using it
01:37:47to weaken the showdown and now it could lead him to the camera here caprice he has it
01:37:53cover lock locked in his right arm is locked in between his knees of moriarty and helico's gonna
01:37:59have to use those long legs to break them it'd be the last rope break though you have to think about
01:38:03think about it oh and he needs to get there he does
01:38:09that is the third man
01:38:13now think about this with cabani each submission has been broken up by somebody grabbing the ropes
01:38:20yes indeed next time someone grabs the ropes if it's in helico it doesn't matter
01:38:27now second off on the inside you're absolutely right moriarty can lock in anything if it's in
01:38:32the ropes he can use the ropes to his advantage wait a minute step in inside toe hold in a twist
01:38:41and look at that the ankle lock locked in moriarty nowhere to go
01:38:44moriarty riding he's gotta make a decision now that was moriarty grab that rope so fast yeah
01:38:52that is the third and final rope break for lee moriarty
01:38:57the longer that move is in the more damage it does is twisting the knee and the ankle at the
01:39:00same time so it messes with the mobility of moriarty moriarty had no choice but to grab
01:39:05the rope and his last one sudden death for cabani we are in the danger zone caprice you're absolutely
01:39:10right both men have exhausted both rope breaks here either man could be pinned or submitted in
01:39:17on between under the ropes and if this goes to the judge's decision remember and helico's the
01:39:24first one to exhaust the rope breaks of moriarty and he's been in control a lot on around nice
01:39:31twist out moriarty grabs the side headlock wrist lock here swinging out and on helico on helico
01:39:35now grabs the ankle ankle rolling through moriarty it's on helico now looking for the front face lock
01:39:39wrist lock countered by moriarty trap the arm wait a minute ducks down pin to the bridge gets it
01:39:45a great effort from on helico
01:40:03but moriarty holds on to the title that was established by our friend nigel mcginnis who
01:40:10returned this weekend by the new aew world champion bryan danielson by men like wheeler
01:40:17yuda daniel garcia capziorri shabbat moriarty hoping to add his name and accept that title's
01:40:23legacy moriarty is pure rick abani this is what the pure title is made for great wrestlers great
01:40:30submission great technicians great plans put together you have to shake hands after this
01:40:34great shorts by angelico as well both men where there was the training of gran guerrero
