AEW Revolution finished. Throughout the evening, wrestling fans were treated to a very long PPV with more ups and downs than any other. There was a brutal battle between CM Punk and MJF and an epic match between Britt Baker and Thunder Rosa. The evening ended Adam Page defended his AEW championship against Adam Cole.
All four AEW championships were defended throughout the evening. In addition to the traditional singles matches, there’s a dog-neck match – which has a long history of brutality – and the ladder match – which has a long history of people jumping off ladders. Those who watch the live show in Orlando, Florida are definitely worth their money.

Leyla Hirsch vs. Kris Statlander
Hirsch won by peg.
Mat: Hi. I was alone for this event because Chris E. Hayner was at Revolution, the lucky son of a gun. Also, I’m really sick, but the show has to go on. The opening match had a few raw points, with Hirsch missing a few points. According to the plot, this has a pretty cool ending with Hirsch maintaining his dominance by hitting Statlander with a spin, which is something I don’t think we’ve seen in a long time. . Not a prelude to the show, but fun nonetheless.
6/10
Hook and QT Marshall
Hook wins by submitting cards.
Mat: Why is QT Marshall superior to me? He is literally the “default wrestler” in any wrestling game. Maybe the guy with the gimmick as the “lightweight guy” is somehow making his way up my alley? Hook is a guy with hair who dresses up like Sagat from Street Fighter and beats people up. He feels like Muay Thai Darby Allin. I was a bit annoyed when I heard the comment team keep calling Hook a “cold handsome devil” over and over again. I got it. He looks great. Anyway, enough complaining. This is all about hooking up like a monster, and the match goes very well. It’s been a little bit of fun watching Marshall get the assignment here.
7/10
House of Black vs Penta Oscuro, Pac and Erick Redbeard
House of Black wins by peg.
Mat: There’s nothing more exciting in wrestling than Penta getting hot cards and wearing a goddamn display case, and in this case it’s encased in a terminator. I enjoyed the battles between Redbeard and the King here – a classic battle between giants vs. There is a very strange moment where Matthews is setting up some move with Penta, Penta touches the rug, and Excalibur shouts “stomp on the spot!” Is that what happened? Even so, this matchup was explosive and certainly had a lot of main card supporters.
8/10
Main card
Chris Jericho vs Eddie Kingston
Kingston wins by submission.
Mat: This match opens with what looks like a murder, as a confused Kingston causes Jericho to hang his head. Then Jericho flustered Kingston over the head. I worry about their brain health. This was a brutal match, and it was only a singles competition. This match was a frank brawl. It’s brutal. If you’re watching this movie and aren’t emotionally invested, you don’t like wrestling. Kingston needs this win to get promoted. This match is as good as I thought it would be. Really solid to kick the main card.
8.5 / 10
Jurassic Express (c) vs. reDRagon vs. The Young Bucks
(AEW World Tag Team Championship)
Jurassic Express wins by peg.
Mat: AEW does a great job of tagging team wrestling and this is a prime example of that. The action never stops, and we have three groups that actually function like tagging groups – not just people being paired together. I got the result I wanted, and the game was worth watching. There are too many false ends in the late game, but overall, it’s a very interesting one.
8/10
Keith Lee vs. Wardlow vs. Powerhouse Hobbs vs. Ricky Starks vs Orange Cassidy vs. Christian Cage
Wardlow grabbed the bronze ring.
Mat: There’s plenty of premium, A-grade beef in this matchup for a powerful shot. That being said, Orange Cassidy is a national treasure and the best part of this showdown. I just hope his groin area is okay after he takes a step up there. According to Hayner, Cassidy had a nasty collision after Keith Lee’s throw and was taken backstage by doctors. Regardless, it was a great ladder fight, there were a lot of moments I’ve never seen before, and we got to see a burly boy grabbing a brass ring. there.
7.5 / 10
Jade Cargill (c) vs. Hand Conti
(AEW TBS Championship)
Cargill wins by peg.
Mat: Hand drawn rad warpaint. Jade was dressed like Jade from Mortal Kombat. 40 stars. Jade also has a great frog shot. She goes on to come up with some really cool maneuvers in her matches. And while Jade went on undefeated in AEW, this wasn’t her best match. It’s the middle of the road. And surprisingly, Conti and Jade weren’t ostentatious at all. Anyway, having Jade win and continue to dominate is a step in the right direction, and it’s great to see her kept.
6.5 / 10
CM Punk vs. MJF
CM Punk wins by peg.
Mat: Okay, I was completely disappointed when Punk took to the ring with AFI’s “Miseria Cantera”. He also wears an outfit similar to his one in Ring of Honor. He’s paying homage to his past in ROH, and that’s awesome. Then the match goes on and Punk bleeds everywhere. How much blood? Well, you’ve seen the movie Carrie, haven’t you? That’s a lot. If you know me, violence like this in wrestling is not my cup of tea. However, it was hard to ignore the fact that this was a brilliantly plotted duel between them. And as the game goes on, we get to the typical Wardlow position where MJF needs his help. However, Wardlow decided to dissolve that relationship. This is a brutal but really enjoyable match.
9/10
Dr. Britt Baker, DMD (c) vs. Thunder Rosa
(AEW Women’s World Championship)
Baker wins by peg.
Mat: Due to a problem with the B/R app, I was unable to watch some matches. It wouldn’t be fair to judge the whole game because I missed some of them.
Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley
Moxley won by peg.
Still Mat: I am tired. I am still very sick. There are still three matches to go. It’s been about 4 hours so far and I personally have no interest in a strong, Japanese-paced style match. I know I’m not the only one who’s tired of audiences being wiped out at this point. It was a great match, a fight between two good wrestlers, but the icing on the cake was William Regal showing up. Sure, the ending of the match was super weird, but we got the Regal.
7/10
Andrade El Ídolo, Matt Hardy and Isiah Kassidy vs Sammy Guevara, Sting and Darby Allin
Allin Hardy’s feet.
Mat: Can a spotfest get me back into action? The match opens with a short video where Darby Allin crashes his car and then drops a coffin on a priest. Then there was a fire. I went to film school, so I know short films suck when I watch them – because I’ve done a lot. This sucks. This match was completely chaotic, in a bad way. What does the cameraman focus on? I ask this because there are three separate areas where the action happens at the same time. Things took a turn for the worse when The Butcher and The Blade were clearing tables in a hallway near Sting. Hardy hits Sting with a light blow. They entered the crowd. What is going on here? Come on. There were some really good plays in the game, especially with Sammy’s Spanish Fly, but this was annoying. Here, the production is stretched too long to keep track of everyone, and it’s like a mess. It complements the main event, and that’s all.
5/10
“Hangman” Adam Page (c) vs. Adam Cole
(AEW World Championship)
Page won by pinning.
Mat: Here we are at last, bay-bay. There’s a lot to be said, but Cole speeding Page while he’s doing a somersault is amazing. There are lots of great spots like this, such as Cole showing Page the Panama Sunrise outside the ring. However, the pacing is dead. It was emotional and the crowd was invested – something that seemed impossible considering how many wrestling matches we’ve all been treated to. Apparently, Cole’s team of minions – because they’re doctors, right? – was around, but Page still has friends in Dark Order, so it’s nice to see someone supporting the AEW Champion. All in, the Page is retained and that makes sense. Page is a great champion and he needs to keep it. This is a great way to close PPV, but man, this show needs to be shorter.
