00:00 (announcer speaking)
00:03 - With our AEW International Championship title match.
00:06 - Orange Cassidy.
00:08 - Lacks the dance of a type guy, but.
00:11 - And I agree with your point, Taz.
00:13 He's gonna fight the champion, Kyle Hatcher.
00:16 - What you saying, Ex-Cowboy?
00:18 Putting Orange Cassidy on notice,
00:19 you put him on the ground.
00:20 - Week here in AEW, the big event.
00:22 - Well, he's Seattle Orange Cassidy.
00:24 - No, but that's the thing, he's unpredictable.
00:26 - Whoa!
00:26 - He's got that tape on the back.
00:27 Oh my gosh, he's gonna--
00:28 - It's gonna be a championship match this weekend.
00:31 House of Black, our main event.
00:32 Double or nothing this weekend at AEW.
00:34 - Look at, oh, oh!
00:37 Back of Orange Cassidy, plus the hand is taped up.
00:40 - Cassidy springs up to a sweep,
00:42 but scores with a thrust kick.
00:44 Keeping Cassidy locked in and driving him down.
00:47 - Cassidy rolls through.
00:49 - Hey!
00:50 - And J.R. Fletcher, he scores!
00:52 And, what?
00:53 - Pay-per-view event, and defend his championship.
00:57 - He is so strong this game.
01:00 No, Cassidy able to kick out.
01:02 - He really has--
01:03 - Yeah, I know he does.
01:04 The thing is, like--
01:05 - Here.
01:06 - Orange Cassidy.
01:07 - Brain buster!
01:08 And a two!
01:08 - Oh!

01:12 - Shim, no!
01:13 Oh, sits out avalanche!
01:17 Now, again!
01:19 Cassidy!
01:20 - Cassidy!
01:21 - Oh, he's feet on the ropes and he spikes!
01:23 - Cassidy!
01:24 - Got the legs crisp.
01:25 - Yes!
01:26 - He got the win!
01:28 Orange Cassidy will put EW International Championship
01:31 on the line.
01:31 - Ricky, last week we saw you get disqualified
01:33 in your match with J.White.
01:35 - It's no secret that I am a hothead around here, Renee.
01:37 You probably thought last week I acted out of emotion,
01:40 but I am here to let you know that I was in full control.
01:43 Every single week, it's the same thing.
01:46 I get beat up by J. and Juice every single match.
01:50 I am gonna take matters into my own hands
01:52 because I have nothing to lose anymore.
01:55 This Sunday at the Blackjack Battle Royal,
01:57 I am refocusing my energy on winning
02:00 the international title because guess what?
02:02 I can do the 20-minute.
02:03 And that's--
02:04 (grunting)
02:07 - Come on, Ricky!
02:08 - We have been done with Bull Club Gold,
02:10 but you see Bull Club Gold now.
02:11 (shouting)
02:13 Okay, so this is Bull Club Gold's M.O.
02:18 - Watch out.
02:19 - Damn.
02:21 (grunting)
02:24 - You think you're done with us?
02:26 You think you're done with Bull Club Gold?
02:28 (shouting)
02:28 Having too much fun making you laugh.
02:30 - How, so we're gonna keep having fun.
02:33 - See you around, sweet boy, Rick.
02:36 - You know, I drove in here to Vegas last night.
02:38 I thought about all the times in my life
02:39 that I've driven down that exact same road to get here.
02:43 I used to drive down here with my buddies
02:44 to wrestle at a little casino down the street.
02:46 I drove down here during one of the most difficult times
02:48 of my entire life.
02:50 Last year after Double or Nothing,
02:51 I drove home with Christian Cage in the car next to me
02:53 and I had no idea that a few weeks later
02:55 my world would be turned upside down.
02:57 But one thing is always the same,
02:59 and that is the feeling that I get
03:01 when I stand inside of that ring.
03:04 That ring has given me a purpose.
03:06 That ring has let me be the man that I wanna be.
03:09 And on Monday morning, when it comes time
03:11 to drive back home over that very same road,
03:13 I'm going to do it as the AEW World Champion.
03:17 (cheering)
03:20 - FG!
03:24 Oh!
03:24 So, Jeff Jarrett, every step of the way,
03:27 you've outsmarted us.
03:29 What you're gonna try, we've known what you're gonna do
03:31 and you've still done it.
03:32 You're smart with what you do
03:33 and I can't take that away from you.
03:34 You're good.
03:35 Sunday, Double or Nothing, your luck runs out.
03:39 - You've broken a million guitars
03:40 and you still can't stay relevant, so what do you do?
03:43 If you think for one second,
03:45 head of the tag team division
03:46 is gonna be a couple of rejects from TNA, hmm.
03:50 By Queen of the Mountain,
03:52 I don't mean your bitch of a wife, Karen.
03:54 I mean Dixie Carter.
03:56 Top guys, out.
03:58 - And in the ring this Sunday, Mark Frisco.
04:01 - We're beating the referee here.
04:02 - Listen, Mark, Mark, I know you're mad
04:05 and you have every reason to be, but listen to me.
04:07 Don't let them make you look stupid.
04:10 We went to hell and back with you and your brother.
04:12 This year, we'll go to hell and back for you.
04:16 - No doubt, boys.
04:17 Blood brothers for life.
04:19 That's why I got to know Dex.
04:21 I didn't mean to pile drive you, I apologize.
04:23 Shake my hand like a man, please.
04:26 I love your family, but I'm not gonna let you
04:27 disrespect me on television.
04:28 Shake my hand like a man.
04:31 Oh, holy smokes.
04:33 - Believable.
04:34 (crowd cheering)
04:37 - I don't give a damn about none of these clowns,
04:45 but I'm getting tired of this bull.
04:49 - Jay Lethal.
04:50 - He sure did.
04:51 Wow.
04:53 - Now as much as I would love to have absolutely
04:54 nothing to do with MJF, he did.
04:57 The offer still stands.
04:58 If you were to lay down in the main event
05:00 of Double or Nothing in that Pillows four-way matchup,
05:02 that handsome, handsome check.
05:04 - You know, Max, I know you're gonna watch this.
05:06 You know what?
05:06 That's a lot of money.
05:07 Hell no!
05:09 I'm not gonna lay down for you.
05:10 This might be a new concept for you, rich boy,
05:12 but you can't buy everything.
05:14 I never would've got here if I was.
05:16 My whole life, people tried to buy me out of my dreams.
05:19 You can shove that offer right up your ass
05:21 because I am living in the real world.
05:23 And now that kid is all grown up,
05:25 but now I am the man who's gonna take
05:27 the AEW World title from you.
05:30 - 20 count on the outside.
05:31 Any three competitors can form a trio.
05:33 There are no rope breaks.
05:35 - Blue house, blue black.
05:38 - The AEW World Trios Championship is on the line.
05:41 Trio of AR Fox, Blake Christian on Dynamite.
05:45 (bell ringing)
05:46 Can form a trio as we've seen in and out of the ring.
05:49 (crowd cheering)
05:50 - Good athleticism there by Blake.
05:52 - Metalik, it was one man out.
05:53 And now inside with the work on Ronisleif behind him.
05:56 And Malachi.
05:57 (bell ringing)
05:58 And he is smooth.
05:59 - Whoa, whoa, king in the corner.
06:01 - See how smart, nailed my man.
06:02 - And Blake Christian.
06:04 - Oh, wow, and he spiked him.
06:05 - Oh, they, he caught.
06:07 - Leg sweep on the outside.
06:09 - Oh, Malachi.
06:10 - And in the corner, leaps over.
06:12 Now, springboard advancement.
06:14 Malachi, the knee strike.
06:16 - Quick on you.
06:17 - Oh, man.
06:19 - You see how you're in the comic,
06:20 you're the king of the ropes.
06:21 Footed high flyers in all of WrestleMania.
06:23 - Whoa.
06:24 - Here we go, Fox.
06:25 (laughing)
06:26 - I was gonna say the same thing.
06:27 - And Metalik grabbed a boot drop kick.
06:30 - Look at this.
06:31 - Yeah, he is, he's sure to springboard.
06:32 - Oh, Fox, the implosion.
06:34 - Very close for both.
06:35 - Fox went for the NZ Gary, buddy.
06:37 - Stop it.
06:38 - Don't do something.
06:39 - You guys, look at this.
06:40 - Remember Taz, no rope breaks.
06:44 Metalik trapped and,
06:45 (crowd cheering)
06:46 - Oh, oh, oh.
06:47 - See ya.
06:48 - Buddy Matthews, he ate both of those.
06:49 - Good, got him.
06:50 - Now, to go on a three man,
06:51 Fox, Kevin and out,
06:53 and the House of Black retains.
06:54 - Well, the House of Black,
06:56 utterly dominant, but last.
06:58 - Big week.
06:59 We have two objectives this week.
07:02 Number one, tonight, Claudio, Yuda,
07:05 they win the Ring of Honor Tag Team titles.
07:08 Objective number two is this Sunday
07:10 at Anarchy in the Arena,
07:12 when we end the elite.
07:15 We are the best in the world.
07:17 And I don't say that lightly.
07:18 I don't say that because it sounds cool.
07:20 I'm not trying to sell you anything.
07:23 And when I say that, my hand doesn't shake.
07:26 I say that because that is the standard
07:28 we set for ourselves.
07:29 And there is nobody in this world
07:32 better at it than us.
07:35 This is the major leagues, kids.
07:37 This Sunday, it's gonna count.
07:38 And this Sunday, the BCC will deliver
07:41 Anarchy in the Arena.
07:43 In a storm of violence, we will stand calm,
07:46 ready, take aim, and fire.
07:49 See the difference between professionals
07:52 and amateurs.
07:54 (upbeat music)
07:58 - Jeff!
07:59 - MJF.
07:59 - MJF.
08:01 - Cut my music, cut my music.
08:07 - Someone get Shivani a beach towel, dry 'em off.
08:09 - Horse of well-deserved boos.
08:11 - You know, it's funny.
08:12 They call this place Sin City,
08:14 but when I look around this arena,
08:16 I have a feeling we're gonna have to change the name
08:18 to Virgin Vegas.
08:19 I feel like I want Sammy Guevara
08:21 to keep shoving his tongue out
08:22 until it goes into a light socket.
08:24 But unlike you disgusting low-life whores,
08:27 the four of us, we have been here since day one.
08:32 Four years later, we have given you the best matches.
08:36 God damn it, we are AEW.
08:39 (crowd cheering)
08:42 However, I don't wanna be anymore,
08:45 to be perfectly honest.
08:47 I'm kind of bored around here.
08:49 I'm kind of sick of this place.
08:51 I'm sick of the lack of competition.
08:54 I am sick of the AEW fans not showing me the respect
08:59 I so greatly deserve.
09:01 (crowd cheering)
09:03 Tony Khan also knows Daddy's contract's coming up
09:08 because you desperately want somebody
09:10 to take the Triple B off of me, don't you, yeah?
09:14 'Cause I just may take my ball and go home,
09:17 but much like the rest of this roster,
09:20 none of them are on the level of the devil.
09:24 - Seems like we won't have to wait long.
09:28 - Cut his music, cut it!
09:30 Darby, I'm glad you came out here
09:32 in your cute little stilts,
09:34 but I'm a little busy.
09:35 You got something to say to my face, huh?
09:38 I've lost a lot in this life, a loss.
09:41 Back in 2011, I graduated high school in Seattle.
09:44 Don't expect much in life, and I listened to those people.
09:48 This one life I have isn't meant to be spent
09:50 cleaning toilets, so I moved from Seattle to Atlanta.
09:54 Long nights in that car, I used to talk to myself,
09:56 no other company's gonna let me skateboard with Tony Hawk.
10:00 You cannot create me, I am me.
10:03 I need to become world champion.
10:05 I am taking your championship,
10:07 and I might even do it with a headlock takeover.
10:10 (crowd cheering)
10:13 - Right hand, but Sammy Gafard
10:17 just comes sprinting down the ramp.
10:19 Heading for the hills, he wants no part of Sammy.
10:22 (upbeat music)
10:23 He is not gonna lay down.
10:25 (crowd cheering)
10:29 Who will lead the team?
10:30 The TNT Championship on the line in a ladder match.
10:33 - Christian is the favorite in this match, I really do.
10:36 - Taya Valkyrie!
10:38 - Mike Taya's chances to be frank,
10:41 if he's been in the ring before.
10:43 - Lady Frost!
10:44 - Also has a diving background, so very athletic.
10:49 Tough task right now for Taya.
10:50 - Was an ROH.
10:52 - Well, a student of ROH,
10:53 established in his background, Lady Frost.
10:55 She is somebody that Valkyrie,
10:57 whoa, Taya gets taken down by the T-Harris.
11:00 And she's still a 12 year veteran, she's Taya Valkyrie,
11:03 so good job there.
11:04 - Frost is hooked and Taya Valkyrie, of course,
11:06 live at double or nothing on pay-per-view.
11:09 - Oh!
11:10 - Overhand shot.
11:11 - And Taya.
11:12 - Whoa!
11:14 - Taya out of the corner!
11:15 The dominant TBS champion out to watch the action.
11:19 This Sunday at double or nothing,
11:20 but Lady Frost to the top corner.
11:24 - How about that?
11:25 - And now the spear!
11:27 - She's still recovering here.
11:29 - Taya underneath and sits out.
11:33 And oh, Frost kicking out.
11:35 - Thirds eye view of what's coming at her.
11:36 Oh, the Sunday.
11:38 - Yeah, Lady Frost.
11:39 - She's still moving around though.
11:40 - She's moving, but she could be.
11:41 - To the ropes, Frost coming through.
11:44 No, oh, back breaker.
11:47 Road to Valhalla.
11:49 Two and three.
11:50 (bell ringing)
11:51 - Or nothing with Taya challenges,
11:54 James Cargill.
11:55 And right now, let's go back to our president.
11:59 - It's great to be here tonight,
12:00 where it all began for AEW.
12:02 Right here at the MGM Grand, right here in Las Vegas.
12:05 And it's very fitting that we're here tonight,
12:07 where it all began to make an announcement
12:09 about the start of a new beginning for AEW.
12:12 AEW Collision, starting June 17th on TNT.
12:16 What we haven't announced yet is the location
12:18 for the very first AEW Collision.
12:21 First episode of AEW Collision will take place
12:23 from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
12:27 I'll see you this weekend.
12:29 Back to you guys.
12:30 - Hangman Adam Page.
12:31 The elite against the BCC, Anarchy in the Arena Sunday.
12:34 What is the status of your friendship
12:36 with the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega?
12:39 - It's funny, Alex, that you use that word,
12:41 because I think that Matt, Nick, and myself,
12:43 we used to be best of friends,
12:44 but for me and Kenny, it was always different.
12:47 I don't know that we were ever really friends,
12:50 certainly not as friends,
12:51 but after everything that we've been through,
12:53 we've always been something more than that,
12:55 something more important, and that's family.
12:57 They have taken from us.
12:58 They nearly took my eye.
12:59 They took Matt's arm.
13:00 They managed to cost Kenny Dawn,
13:02 but the price, Blackpool, that you've run up with us,
13:04 too high.
13:05 This Sunday, you pay it in blood.
13:07 (crowd cheering)
13:10 - Then, Giovanni Chasen, Chris Jericho,
13:13 the task some people were questioning.
13:16 Chris Jericho!
13:25 - Obviously, he was emotional.
13:28 - Dr. Britt Baker, DMT, came to the ring.
13:32 - This contract is for an unsanctioned match.
13:36 AEW is not responsible for what could happen
13:40 during the match on Sunday.
13:42 Personal contract between Chris Jericho and Adam Cole.
13:46 - Break him up, break him up!
13:48 - They're taking him off to put pen to paper.
13:50 Cole is ready.
13:51 - You directed traffic!
13:55 You screamed, "Again, again!"
13:58 Maybe, Chris, it's because you're a scumbag.
14:01 You did it because you truly believe that you're invincible.
14:05 We're gonna find out how invincible you are this Sunday.
14:08 Blood, it's not on their hands, it'll be on mine,
14:12 and that's just the way I like it.
14:14 - Adam Cole, Adam Cole!
14:16 - Let me explain exactly what's gonna happen to you
14:20 this Sunday, 'cause I'm gonna break both your legs,
14:22 'cause I'm going to shatter your jaw,
14:25 because I'm gonna break your hands.
14:27 I'd hurry up and sign the paper, bitch.
14:30 (crowd chanting)
14:34 - I ain't no bitch.
14:37 I'm not from Las Vegas.
14:39 - Stop!
14:40 - What kind of a man?
14:42 She got destroyed with a candlestick!
14:46 You wanna touch me?
14:47 Touch me.
14:48 - I'm gonna get him!
14:49 I'm gonna get him!
14:50 - I'm gonna knock your damn teeth out of your throat!
14:53 No, no rules.
14:55 There's five of us, only two of you.
14:58 - This is why I made a little phone call
15:00 to someone who lives here in Las Vegas.
15:03 He has one man who's crazier than all five of you combined.
15:07 It's Sabu!
15:07 - Wow.
15:13 In a war or 50 with that man.
15:15 He knows Sabu's history, he's been in the ring with Sabu.
15:19 Jericho's shocked.
15:20 - I'm shocked.
15:21 - Highly, uh-oh.
15:25 - And look at the Jericho Appreciation Society scatter!
15:29 This deeply personal match somehow becoming
15:35 even more interesting.
15:36 The Jericho Appreciation Society headed up the ramp.
15:39 - Free Stefan Smith inside the ring.
15:41 He calls for the bell and here's physicality
15:43 to back Garcia up to the right hand to the midsection.
15:47 As we saw, this week started off huge.
15:51 The announcement that AEW put those body shots.
15:53 - Whoa!
15:54 - Roderick Strong to the jaw, the back breaker!
15:57 Four days away for double or nothing!
16:00 - Of AEW ahead of double or nothing.
16:02 - Now Strong sends Garcia into the room.
16:04 - Whoa!
16:06 - I think he does Strong with such precision, look at this.
16:08 - Daniel Garcia, oh what for a kick and back!
16:12 Strong and no, Garcia shot.
16:14 Garcia!
16:17 Eggetamer perhaps, yes!
16:19 Garcia steps over!
16:20 - Good job by Roderick turning.
16:22 - I guess a good job.
16:23 - Yeah, no it is, that's exactly.
16:24 Roderick, hoist up, Garcia end of heartache!
16:28 Hooked and Roderick Strong gets the win!
16:30 - Here in AEW and he will be in Adam Cole's corner.
16:35 - The Lucha Brothers look to defend
16:36 the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championship
16:38 against Claudio Castiglione and Wheeler Yuta.
16:40 - That is the voice of Bobby Crews
16:42 and those are the two men that may become Brian Danielson.
16:45 Joining us here at the desk, Brian.
16:46 - It's a pleasure to be on here on commentary
16:48 with you, man in the mask.
16:50 - The Lucha Brothers!
16:51 - The Lucha Brothers!
16:53 - Their lone defense came at Battle of the Belts 6
16:56 where they defeat a Q team.
16:57 - One.
16:59 - Because nobody trains harder than we do.
17:01 - You see on Nelson's series,
17:02 how many people has the rep,
17:04 extremely rep, quarter-mountains, three-quarter-mountains.
17:07 - The guys lift their hands, they get the hands.
17:09 - These guys are as avatar, get a real deal.
17:12 - Building up momentum.
17:13 - Whoa!
17:14 - Right here in Las Vegas.
17:16 - H-amateurs, come on now,
17:18 they're not champions in that group.
17:19 And Rafe Finnegan!
17:22 - Seen now is the best Mount Rucks we've ever seen.
17:24 - Two!
17:25 - I will say this.
17:26 - Coming in with the uppercut
17:27 and steps through with that lariat.
17:30 And Brian's not just in Chicago,
17:31 but Saturday, June 17th, collision.
17:34 AEW collision.
17:36 - And so hard, bro.
17:36 - Oh!
17:37 - One, two, and no!
17:39 - Don't go anywhere because I'm made of it!
17:41 - Across that throat, across the artery.
17:43 - Whoa!
17:44 - Making the tag, looking for the giant swing!
17:48 - Glad to see it.
17:49 - And a dropkick by-
17:51 - No!
17:52 - And that giant swing has helped Claudio
17:54 catch the only-
