00:00Deanna Perrazzo, Taya Valkyrie once again reinforcing the importance of family,
00:04but we are joined at the Rampage announce desk by none other than the AEW Women's World Champion,
00:09the Glamour, Mariah May. Welcome. I'm back again. It seems you guys aren't doing your
00:13job very well. They're bringing in the big guns. Take it easy, Mariah. Okay, daddy magic.
00:24How about this music, Mariah? It sounds like something's gone wrong at a circus.
00:29The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 20-minute time limit.
00:33Interesting first, from Brunswick, Georgia, Anna J.
00:40Well, Anna J, recently returning to AEW after a summer excursion for the stardom promotion in
00:47Japan, something you're very well acquainted with. Wait, Anna went to Japan? I had no idea.
00:51She hasn't mentioned that she's been to Japan. She hasn't actually brought it up once. I didn't
00:56know. Thank you for telling me. Well, you'll get a chance to ask her about it tomorrow night on
01:01Battle of the Belts 12. Oh, we won't be doing any talking, believe me. Maybe some screaming,
01:06some crying. And her opponent, accompanied by the infantry from Washington, D.C.,
01:18the Afro Pump, Trish Adora. This is going to be a tough test for Trish Adora, a highly skilled
01:29competitor in her own right. But Anna J, very, very focused. And you know, the eliminator match
01:35coming up tomorrow night, Battle of the Belts 12, immediately following Collision on TNT. It will be
01:42Mariah May, Anna J, one on one. And if Anna J wins, she will earn a shot at the AEW Women's
01:49World Championship. If she wins. Do you think she's going to win? Well, she looks better than
01:54she's ever had. Right now. Because she went to Japan. I don't know if you heard. She was in
01:59Japan. I heard that. Yeah, she went to Japan. I'll tell you what, Mariah, you better be ready
02:03tomorrow night. I'm telling you right now. Oh, here we go. Her biggest supporter, probably her
02:08only fan. Well, Anna J, Daddy Magic used to be part of the Jericho Appreciation Society. Some
02:15have strayed further from the grip of Chris Jericho than others. Daddy Magic. Listen,
02:20I don't know what that's supposed to mean. Anna J is going to have a soft spot in my heart.
02:24Rooting for her here right now. Going to be rooting for her tomorrow night. And what about
02:28Trish Adora? I heard she got an honorable discharge. She never told me the guy's name,
02:33but it sounds like a good time. Holy smokes. It's Friday night, brother. Honorable discharge
02:40from the U.S. Army. She's a vet. Oh, yes. She's with the infantry who have infiltrated my DMs
02:45many times to no avail. Shivani DMs is like on Instagram. If somebody would like to court you,
02:52perhaps they would they would DM you. Direct messages. Direct message. Yes. And look at
02:58Trish Adora showing her flexibility, her range as she's got Anna J in a very punishing predicament,
03:05shall we say? And now it's right there. Yeah. Converts into a roll up attempt. Anna able to
03:11break free. But Trish Adora continues on the attack as the wrist of Anna captured. But Anna
03:17turns the tables. Here we go. And a bit of a slow start here. I think there's a good match for Anna
03:21to take one night before she's going to face the world champion, because Mariah May is a very,
03:27very hard striker. And so is Trish Adora. Very similar in that way. Yes, we are. I mean, it's not
03:32a smart move from Anna, but that's not really what she's known for. Oh, wow. Fat arse and bad attitude.
03:37I think that is what a good message for the kids, for the young kids that watch A.W. And your message
03:44for the kids is to stab your mentor in the head repeatedly with the shoe and become very rich
03:48and successful. Yes, indeed. Thank you so much. When you put it that way, it makes total sense.
03:52Yes, exactly. Now Anna Jay winds up. Big elbow strike. But Trish Adora fires back with one of her own.
03:59Like I said, a hard hitter, just like our world champion. Anna cannot overlook Trish Adora here
04:03tonight. She blows a kiss. There you go. The wave, the kiss up to the announce desk as Trish Adora
04:09looking for the trip. But the hip toss blocked. Knee strike from Anna repeatedly into the midsection
04:15of Adora. Now the hammer thrown into the corner. Anna coming in that dangerous J kick. Just
04:21absolutely smoked her with that. Maybe she learned it when she went on vacation in Japan.
04:27That little two week holiday that she took. Anna Jay coming in with a drop kick, taking Trish Adora
04:32off her feet. And Anna turning her attention to Mariah May here at the desk. And Mariah,
04:36what you call a two week holiday, I would call a month long excursion competing in the five star
04:41Grand Prix tournament in stardom. But right now we're going to stick with the action and picture
04:45picture. Don't go anywhere. Anna Jay all over Trish Adora here. Mariah, do you do you notice
04:53a difference in Anna Jay's game since returning from Japan? I'm a lot of things. I'm very fair.
04:59She has. I'm very fair. You don't think so. I'm fair skinned. I hit the sunbeds.
05:08I'm the world champion. I have a turning subscription comes out of my account,
05:13but I don't notice because I'm rich. You guys didn't get it. It's fine.
05:17Look, Anna's got a lot quicker, a lot stiffer, which we all like. It's stiff.
05:24But do you really think she can compete with a woman that lived in Japan for a year
05:28that was a champion in stardom? I mean, I think she proved it on her month long tour
05:35that she can hang in there with the best of them. Is it a tour? Is it a month? A tour?
05:38We can not. I don't know. You tell me, Mariah. I think she spent more time talking about it
05:42than she did actually doing it. I guess we'll find out tomorrow night, won't we?
05:47To Anna's credit, it's not her that's that's bringing up these facts. We tend to bring it
05:52up as an artist to explain why she was not competing inside an AEW ring because she was
05:56part of the five star Grand Prix. And also our hero Will Ospreay mentioned something about her
06:00footwork. Thought he was talking about dancing, but no, he's talking about her technical improvement
06:05in Japan. So well done, Anna. I can't wait to see it tomorrow. I'm excited. Should be good.
06:10Should be a great match. Should be a great night tomorrow. Two hours of collision and one hour of
06:15battle. Anna transitions, lateral press. Gotta love it. Three hours on TNT tomorrow night.
06:23That's Saturday night, Matt. Saturday night, boys. Followed by,
06:27tonight is what? Friday night. And tomorrow? Saturday night. Oh, hell yeah.
06:31As Trish McTorah into the backbreaker.
06:38What's the day after that, Matt? We're talking Sunday. There you go. What's going on here?
06:50How do you think it's going for Anna, guys? Well, right now, not well. Does this look like
06:54a world champion to you? Well, no, you're the world champion, but it looks like a world champion
06:58caliber contender. Oh, she's in trouble here. Yeah, this is not good for anybody here.
07:08Oh, boy. Trish Adora with Anna Jay in a very precarious position.
07:29Step inside the ring.
07:30Let's go.
08:01Welcome back to Rampage on TNT. Trish Adora, Anna Jay going one-on-one in the AEW Women's
08:24World Champion. The Glamour, Mariah May, joining us at the commentary desk. And, Mariah, you will
08:29be facing Anna Jay in just 24 hours time. AEW Women's World Championship eliminator match on
08:36Battle of the Belts 12 tomorrow night. Yes, Battle of the Belts, also known as Tony Schiavone trying
08:40to get dressed. Okay, how does she know? Anna Jay applying pressure to Trish Adora. We've seen some
08:51great flourishes out of Trish, but Daddy Magic, Anna Jay is fighting her way back into this one.
08:56Anna Jay's weathered the storm. She's got to be looking to finish here. Big neckbreaker,
09:00get a cover. Flipping neckbreaker, the far leg hooked, and Trish Adora able to kick out. Let's
09:05stick with it, Anna. Sorry, Tony. Yeah, I was saying, Mariah, you got to watch out for those
09:09strong legs and those kicks from Anna Jay. You know, Anna Jay is really impressive if you don't
09:15know anything about wrestling. She can't get the job done, but you know who can? Me. A beaten
09:21Tony Storm. A German suplex here too. What makes you think she could be the one to topple me?
09:29So we know you're great, Mariah. You're the women's champion. Note that about it.
09:33Maybe because she'll be underestimated.
09:37Well, Trish Adora looking for a suplex attempt. Anna counters. Trish, though,
09:42the elbow strikes. Boy, Trish is just so powerful. Oh, no. Gotta get your hands up, Anna.
09:47Whoa. Yeah, Mariah May perhaps observing some weaknesses and deficiencies in her opponent.
09:57There we go. Again, and you know, Mariah, I don't expect you to divulge anything,
10:01but I imagine you're formulating a game plan before our very eyes.
10:06I'm planning on taking Anna back to Japan. It's going to be very competitive,
10:10very hard hitting if she can keep up. And if I had to guess you,
10:14a ticket will be for Anna Jay in steerage as Trish Adora.
10:19Swingless backstabber from Anna Jay. Here we go. And now Anna brings up Trish Adora,
10:26but not for long. Trish goes down face first. Anna transitions. The cover. Two, three.
10:34Here's your winner, Anna Jay. Look at the smile on her face and that frown from the world champion.
10:42I really think you might be underestimating Anna Jay, world champ. She's not going to listen
10:50to me. She's just walking out with a microphone here. What's it going to be tomorrow night,
10:54gentlemen? At Battle of the Belts 12, immediately following collision on TNT,
11:00three straight hours tomorrow night. Let's hear it for Anna Jay, everyone. Let's hear it for Anna Jay.
11:07Anna, you should really buy me dinner because at Battle of the Belts,
11:17you're going to be on your knees, crying, shaking, and screaming my name.
11:26What arrogance? What arrogance? I'm telling you right now.
11:31Well, the arrogance of the AEW women's world champion is without question, but a massive
11:37opportunity for Anna Jay in just 24 hours time at Battle of the Belts 12. But right now,
11:45let's head to the back where our colleague, the esteemed, the remarkable Renee Paquette
11:49is standing by.
