It’s Friday, you know what that means! It’s time for the fastest hour in all of professional wrestling as well as the final night of Fyter Fest as AEW Rampage comes from Duluth, Georgia! We have a fun hour in store too as Hangman and John Silver take on The Butcher & The Blade and Lee Moriarty faces Dante Martin in what’s sure to be an excellent match between two of AEW’s brightest prospects. With all that and more, let’s waste no time and get to the wrestling. The commentary team tonight begins with Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and JR.
The bell rings and we begin with John Silver leaping at both The Butcher & The Blade on his own but he’s soon overwhelmed and the actual tag team takes control in their corner. They exchange tags and keep Silver isolated and Butcher antagonises Hangman whilst he’s stuck on the apron. Blade stomps John down in the corner but Silver reverses the suplex in the middle and makes the tag to Hangman. The Cowboy deals with both The Butcher & The Blade on his own with a Clothesline and Fall away Slam before they both get Tope Suicidas each and comes back with a Lariat from the top in the ring to earn a two count on Blade. Butcher drags Hangman out and beats him down using the barricades before sending Page back into the ring and tagging in to send us to break. Butcher lays in chops in the corner and Hangman fights back with forearms but Butch beats him down again, using his size and then brings Blade back in. Hangman fights back again with more forearms but Blade pokes the eye to regain control.
Great reversal by John Silver and Hangman is tagged in and not wasting any time here!

We return to the match as Hangman makes the tag. Silver explodes taking out Butcher and then Blade with a big Uppercut then a Suplex out of the corner. Butcher saves his partner from getting pinned and Silver fights both opponents but loses out when they hit an assisted Gut Buster then Butcher deals with Hangman on the Apron whilst Blade hits the Doctor Bomb for two. Somehow Blade has got busted open and is bleeding everywhere, he tags out to Butcher and then they go for a double team but Silver escapes to tag out. Hangman fights both of them off with Elbows then sends Blade to the outside before Hangman and Butcher meet in the middle with Clotheslines, Butcher manages to reposition to hit a German Suplex and Hangman lands on his feet. He hits a Rolling Lariat to stagger the big man then sets up for the Buckshot Lariat. Blade grabs Hangman’s leg and avoids the Moonsault but Silver takes him out then hits some nice double team moves with Hangman on Butcher to let Hangman hit the Buckshot and get the win.

Claudio comes out before we go to a break and when we return, he begins to discuss Death before Dishonor on Saturday and his match with Jonathan Gresham and how a World Championship has eluded him for his entire career. But he believes he’s the best in spite of that because of the fans. He turns to Gresham and says that on Saturday the Foundation of Gresham is going to get cracked because he tugged at Superman’s cape and nobody can match Castagnoli in the ring. He finishes by saying he’ll be the World Champion after Death before Dishonor.

No entrances, straight to the match which begins with a handshake and then a great mat exchange between the two starlets. Neither man takes the advantage early on with counters being met by counters until Dante tries a La Magistral for two. Lee responds with a heel trip but Dante hits a Tijeras in response but then eats a big boot to the face. Moriarty follows with Knees to the body but Dante pops himself up with a big dropkick to send Lee outside and send us to break. Dante lets Lee back into the ring rather than trying for a dive but Dante regains control with a headlock takedown anyway. Lee fights out then locks in a Hanging Front Facelock and then follows with a Front Chancery Suplex for two and then lays in strikes to remain in control. He locks on an Arm Bar but Dante fights out of it and we get the traditional Blackout.

Once that’s over and we’re back with the action, Dante is in control and hits a diving Hurricanrana to bring Lee Moriarty into the ring from the top and then Stokely Hathaway walks out. Back in the ring, Dante hits a great Enzuigiri and a big Crossbody for two. Dante and Lee end up fighting for control and then they evade each other's moves until Lee gets a roll up and transitions to the Border City Stretch. Martin is in all kinds of trouble for a moment but reaches the ropes. Lee gets frustrated and lays in the stomps to Dante but Dante reverses a Suplex and hits a Sit Out, Spinning Slam for two. Dante heads to the top rope and Lee avoids the Nosedive and then reverses the O’Connor Roll and grabs the rope to get the win.

Matt Sydal chastises Moriarty on the mic for taking the easy option and says he’ll kick his ass next week to teach him a lesson. Stokely offers the business card to Lee as he leaves but he doesn’t take it.
Maybe next time, @StokelyHathaway.

“Lil Scrappy” is out to judge the battle and Austin goes first and he’s not bad. Austin does rap irl if you didn’t know. Max schools him but we only get four bars. Austin retorts again and it’s very mid this time. Max once again serves Austin and then the Ass Boy chokes and Lil Scrappy declares Caster the winner. The Gunns jump The Acclaimed and two on three it’s an easy fight for The Gunns.

Mark Henry says it was cool to see Daniels stand up for Joe and Daniels says that Joe will do his business on Saturday but he got sick of hearing Jay and Sonjay talk about Joe. They retort that Daniels is going to be an example of when running your mouth goes wrong. Daniels calls for the catchphrase because he’s heard enough. Looks like we’ve had enough talk, it’s time for the Main Event.

Well, that was a fun Ring of Honor Rampage. I kid, but I can’t wait until ROH gets its own TV show and AEW shows can focus on AEW stuff. Nonetheless, it was a fun hour for me, but what did you think? Let us know in the comments, let me know on Twitter @Knapphausen and have a great weekend. Adios.
