Glad the fans in attendance chanted for Cena and didn’t boo someone from WWE. I liked Danielson’s commentary explaining the spot without mentioning Cena’s name which was fine. This was great as Copeland also played Super Cena in his hometown kicking out of FTR biggest moves. I liked Beth Phoenix’s appearance to stop Hathaway from getting involved. A good win for Copeland and Christian. They gave FTR the heat back with the big post-match attack angle on Phoenix. A really fun match between two great tag teams.

Amin’s Thoughts — I really enjoyed watching this match live and rewatching on replay. You have to give AEW credit for the plunder matches they put on shows. These don’t just feel like regular matches with the addition of plunder to get a pop from the crowd which you mostly see in WWE. They go all out in AEW with the use of weapons and try to make their plunder matches feel meaningful. Briscoe and MJF both worked great together coming up with creative spots with the use of tacks and tables. This was right finish with Briscoe getting a big win over MJF. You can now move into the direction with Briscoe challenging for the AEW World Title after this win. MJF didn’t lose anything here because he still has his World Title contract. Briscoe using the Jay Driller was a great way to win. An enjoyable match and good to see Briscoe get a big win on an AEW PPV (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)

Mercedes Mone retained the TBS Title
Amin’s Thoughts — The crowd in the arena was noticeably quiet for the most part. The problem here was nobody thought Riho was going to win the match. The crowd just sat back and watched the match. Watching back on replay this was a good well worked match. A nice showing from Riho as she’s great playing the underdog babyface. Mercedes was great here selling for Riho. Mercedes is a fantastic wrestler and always has good matches on PPVs. The problem here is the lack of creativity in Mercedes programs leading into the PPV matches. This was one of those matches that would’ve been better on TV instead of PPV. Mercedes is a star so they put this match on PPV. This is one of those matches that was more enjoyable to watching back on replay instead of live in the arena (⭐️⭐️⭐️)

Amin’s Thoughts — This was brutal in the best way possible as both Darby and Moxley worked a grudge match. The blood might be uncomfortable for some fans which is understandable. You have to give AEW credit for making their stipulation matches stand out. I really liked the callback with Darby using the bag which Moxley used on Danielson. The return of PAC was impactful and looked awesome. Pretty surprising finish with Moxley winning in this match. I would guess they are building to a bigger stipulation match where Darby will eventually get his win. This was great to watch live and on replay (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)

Was impressed with Thekla as she has all the potential to become a breakout star. Hayter looked really impressive as everything all the moves she delivers looks crisp. Storm is arguably the biggest star in the Women’s division right next to Mercedes Mone. Storm will just comeback stronger as that’s what makes her great how she can adapt and make ways for her on-screen character to remain fresh. This was a really nice moment seeing Statlander winning the AEW Women’s World Title. The finish was great with Statlander using the Seatbelt as there has been teases with her and Death Riders. A fun match and nice moment for Statlander (⭐️⭐️⭐️1/4)
