Orange Cassidy (C) vs. Wheeler YutaJeff Hardy vs. Jeff Jarrett
It’s time for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Death Match!
With that said, we see “The Dapper Yapper” Justin Roberts in the ring, where has tables leaning in the corners and other goodies laying around. He announces that it’s time for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Death Match.
On that note, we hear the iconic sounds of Jeff Hardy’s theme song. Out comes “The Charismatic Enigma” to a loud pop and chants of his name. He settles in the ring but then leaves it and walks through the crowd. He heads to the back and sees a bunch of weapons hanging up and is attacked from behind by Jeff Jarrett.
The bell sounds and this fight is officially off-and-running. We see Karen Jarrett yelling and looming as Jeff Hardy fights back. Satnam Singh attacks Hardy from behind and chokes him against a wall. Brother Zay and Matt Hardy and Ethan Page also show up and fight with Singh to help even things up a bit.
They dump a giant bucket of blood or something all over Karen and Jeff Jarrett. She is annoyingly yelling and screaming as they beat Jarrett down some more. Karen yells that she wants to get out of here and go home. Excalibur informs us that this match, if you want to call it that, will continue. We head to a mid-match commercial break on that note.
When we return from the break, we see Hardy and Jarrett fight out to the ramp. As they do, we see Brother Zay, Ethan Page and Matt Hardy trailing behind them, along with Satnam Singh, Jay Lethal, Sonjay Dutt and Karen Jarrett. We see trash cans and trash cans lids used as weapons, Karen jumps on Jeff’s back, and a giant ball of powder or dust gets thrown and is dusting the crowd.
In the ring, some bodies start to fill up as this chaotic scene continues and tables are starting to be set up. The Hardy Boyz and their crew beat Jarrett down and lay him out on a table. Jay Lethal helps fight some of the extra bodies out of the ring. Hardy goes to the top-rope and hits a swanton bomb that puts Jarrett through the table, but not before Jeff nearly folds in half in a way your body isn’t meant to do.
Hardy goes for the follow-up pin attempt, but Lethal hits the ring to break it up and keep this one alive. This buys Jarrett some time, and he pulls out a special guitar with Jeff’s face-paint style on the back of it. Hardy takes it from Jarrett and breaks it over his head. As he sets Jarrett up for the finish, we hear a chainsaw and in a Robocop in WCW type of moment, out comes Leatherface with his chainsaw to scare off almost everyone, heels and faces alike.
After they clear out, we see Jarrett laid out in the ring. Satnam Singh goes to attack Hardy, but Hardy fights back until Jay Lethal bashes him in the back of the head with a hammer. Singh hits him with a chokeslam and then they drag Jarrett over Hardy for the pin fall victory. This chaotic mess is over. Jeff Jarrett and company celebrate, giving Jarrett some kind of Leatherface title belt. Afterwards, we head to another commercial break
Winner: Jeff Jarrett
Britt Baker vs. The Bunny
Now it’s time to find out who will secure the fourth and final spot in the AEW Women’s Championship fatal-four-way bout at AEW ALL IN 2023 at Wembley Stadium, as Britt Baker’s theme hits and out she comes.
Excalibur points out Baker is wearing the same ring jacket tonight that she wore at ALL IN in 2019. She settles in the ring for our next match of the evening, where the winner joins Saraya, Hikaru Shida and Toni Storm in the fatal-four-way bout for the title on August 27.
Out next comes The Bunny with her friends by her side. She settles in the ring and the bell sounds to get this one officially off-and-running. The fans immediately break out in “DMD! DMD!” chants. The two shove each other and then The Bunny lights up Baker with rapid-fire forearm shots.
Baker fights back and looks for a stomp, but is distracted by Penelope Ford at ringside. This allows The Bunny to take back over control of the offense as Excalibur reads a plug for a special t-shirt to benefit the victims of the Maui Wildfires.
Meanwhile, Baker fights back and takes The Bunny to the top-rope and follows up after her. The Bunny gets her legs scissored around Baker’s throat as she drops back over the ropes. After that, we shift gears and head into a mid-match commercial break as this high stakes women’s showdown continues.
When we return from the break, we see the action still in progress. Baker starts to fight her way back into the offensive driver’s seat after clubbing The Bunny with some vicious forearm shots. She gets her set up for the Lock Jaw but has to deal with Ford on the apron.
She does and then turns around and avoids a cheap shot from The Bunny to finish her off. With the win, Baker fills the final spot at ALL IN for the AEW Women’s Championship.
Winner and ADVANCING to ALL IN: Britt Baker
The House Of Black Beats Down The Acclaimed
Excalibur speed-reads through updates to the lineup for AEW ALL IN 2023 and then we head back inside Bridgestone Arena where The Acclaimed’s theme music hits. Out comes Max Caster doing his freestyle rap gimmick as he and Anthony Bowens head to the ring carrying Billy Gunn’s boots in honor of his retirement.
They settle into the ring for scheduled tag-team action, but then the lights go out. When they come back on, we see The House of Black standing behind them. The brawl is on and we see Malakai Black, Brody King and Buddy Matthews beat down Caster and Bowens and leave them laying. Julia Hart stands over them holding Billy Gunn’s boots in a sign of disrespect. We head to another commercial break.
The Young Bucks vs. The Gunns
It’s main event time!
With that said, we return from the break and the lights inside Bridgestone Arena go out. The theme for The Gunns plays and when the lights come back on, we see Austin and Colten Gunn doing their twirling in the spotlight ring entrance routine as the fans boo.
Before they can begin their walk down to the ring, they are blasted by stereo super kicks from The Young Bucks. Nick and Matt Jackson then take the spotlight space to do their double biceps pose for a big pop.
The Young Bucks continue beating The Gunns down to the ring as the fans cheer them on. They fight down to the ringside area where Austin and Colten take over. They bring one of the Jackson’s into the ring and ask for the bell to be rung. The bell rings and this one is officially off-and-running now.
We hear the fans chant “Ass boys! Ass boys!” as The Gunns work over Jackson. The other Jackson hits the ring and The Young Bucks double-team their way back into the offensive driver’s seats as the crowd comes unglued in Nashville. Nick and Matt knock Austin and Colten out to the floor and then play to the crowd before hitting high spots over the ropes to the floor.
Back in the ring, we see The Gunns take back over and as they do, Excalibur talks us into our final mid-match commercial break of the evening as our AEW Dynamite: Fight For The Fallen 2023 main event continues.
As we settle back in from the break, we see Nick Jackson go on an insane offensive run, hitting every super kick and face-buster you can think of, while throwing out little insults and comments as he connects with each shot/move. He finishes that off with a big dive to the floor and then is joined by Matt in the ring.
The two go for a BTE Trigger, but Gunn hits the ring to save his brother just in time. The Gunns start to take it to The Young Bucks as the fans boo. The Gunns hit a big double team spot and go for the pin, but Jackson hits the ring just in time to make the save. Gunn hits a Fame-Asser and then mocks Kenny Omega for a V-Trigger.
Jackson avoids it. Gunn tries a roll-up, but when he goes to hold his brother’s hand at ringside to cheat, his brother is hit with a super kick on the floor. The Young Bucks then hold hands for added leverage to steal the pin.
Winners: The Young Bucks
FTR Helps The Young Bucks With Bullet Club Gold
After the match, Jay White and Juice Robinson of The Bullet Club Gold come out to beat down The Young Bucks. The commentators remind us Kenny Omega is in the hospital and Hangman Page is with him. They grab some steel chairs and look to do damage to the already injured arm of Matt Jackson. They put his arm in the chair and then get ready to stomp on it, but then we hear the sounds of FTR’s theme music.
Out comes AEW World Tag-Team Champions Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler through the crowd. They surprise The Bullet Club Gold from behind in the ring and a big brawl breaks out. FTR and The Young Bucks run off Bullet Club Gold and then the two teams have a staredown as FTR raise their titles high in the air.
Excalibur plugs their showdown for the titles at AEW ALL IN 2023 inside Wembley Stadium. He plugs Rampage and Collision for the other Fight For The Fallen shows this week and that’s how we go off the air. Thanks for joining us!
