Willow says that nothing matters, smile anyway.

Mark Briscoe is here and says that these boys don’t know what violence is, and he’s declaring himself the first member of Team AEW for Blood & Guts. Briscoe says he was seconds away from becoming the TNT Champion but Jack Perry must have had an extra helping of Lucky Charms. Here’s Jack Perry from behind and he cracks Briscoe with the belt. Kyle O’Reilly is here to make the save for his buddy, but Kazuchida Okada is here too and Kyle eats a Rainmaker. The Young Bucks are here now but The Acclaimed’s music hits and everyone scatters.

Toni Storm, Luther, & Mariah May are here. Toni pumps up Mariah May, who’s wrestling Shida this week on Rampage. Renee wants to remind Toni that if Mariah May wins, then… Toni doesn’t care about that now. It’s May’s time to shine.

Renee Young is with Jeff Jarrett and company. Renee wants to know how Jeff is able to prepare not knowing his opponent, and Jeff walks off. Jay Lethal says Jeff is doing this for his best friend.

Tony Schiavone welcomes back Doctor Britt Baker, DMD. Britt misses the fans, but she wants to talk about what we’ve all got, a past, present, and future. Where’s Britt been? Back in November, Britt said she was good, until she wasn’t. One day she was very sick, and her entire right side stopped working. Britt spent a week in the hospital with a TIA, an instance when your brain suffers a mini stroke. Britt told TK she needs time, and he said… let me know when you’re good. In the present, she’s here, she’s clear, and she’s healthy. Britt said she’d never doubted herself more than she did on Sunday. Britt didn’t know if anyone cared if she was going to walk through the curtain on Sunday. When Britt needed the fans, they were there for her. At the end of the day, Britt’s one of the fans.

Britt then goes scorched earth on Mercedes Mone, claiming she didn’t lay down the foundation of this company with her blood, sweat, and tears, and she even stole the three letter thing. Well, here’s Mercedes Mone pulling up on the tron, greeted by The Bucks. The Bucks then demand that Mercedes get the celebration as she heads to the ring, so the ring crew puts up some balloons and whatnot. Britt said they’re trying to outshine each other, but Mone says whatever Britt does is irrelevant. Crowd is hard into the “stfu” chants to Mone here. Mone says Britt should get a good look at what a real star should look like. Britt reminds Mone that she’s the first female to go All In at AEW by signing her name on that contract. Britt wrestled at Wembley last year when Mone’s ass was lookin like a broke b with a broken leg. Britt wants to face Mone at All In! Mone pie faces her and tells her there’s a long list of girls waiting and get to the back of the line, b. What line, b? There’s a price to pay when you mess with Mone.

Renee is with Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher. Renee wants to know how Ospreay is feeling physically and mentally. Don Callis is here, and Ospreay apologizes to him and tells him he’s not that guy anymore. Ospreay has changed as a person, and he’s given him a lot of things in his life and career, but he wants to be out of the Don Callis Family. Callis says he’s not in the habit of letting people out of signed agreements, but he’s so proud of Ospreay, he’s going to do this for him. However, one day, he’ll be asking for a favor.

Chris Jericho is here. Jericho says Hook broke the cardinal sin of the wrestling business when he stole his finish. That doesn’t work for me, brother. Jericho says Taz is relieved of his announce duties for the rest of the evening and he’s got to leave the arena immediately.

Match #3. Hook, Katsuyori Shibata, & Samoa Joe vs. Cage of Agony

Joe and Kaun trade blows and we’ve got some quick tags being made early.

Shibata in trouble now as Cage runs through him with a big back elbow. Body slam by Toa and a diving headbutt. Toa looks for a pop-up Samoan drop but Shibata hooks him and posts hi, tagging Hook.

Cage and Kaun are here to make the save as it’s all broken down. Triple suplexes attempts by Cage of Agony but Joe, Hook, and Shibata escape to the back and it’s a three-way rear naked choke.

Winners: Hook, Katusyori Shibata, & Samoa Joe

Rating: **1/2. Fine six-man match here, looking like Joe and co. will be a getting a trios shot at some point.

Jericho says he wants to congratulate the winners, but Bryan Keith and Big Bill are here to attack them from behind with chairs. Jericho blasts Hook in the face with the brass knuckles and Big Bill chokeslams him through a table.

Match #4. Owen Hart Cup Quarterfinal: Jeff Jarrett vs. Hangman Page

Well now. Did not see this one coming. Page is looking more Magnum TA-than ever. Page backs Jarrett up to the ropes but does *not* give him a clean break, which should be telling. Page with a double leg and punches to the back of the head of Jarrett, kicking the back of and taking a few liberties. Jarrett hits the ropes but right into a huge lariat. Fall away slam by Page as Jarrett rolls to the apron, only to get powerbombed on the corner. Page then bounces Jarrett’s head off the steps about half a dozen times. Back inside the ring, Page is just bullying Jarrett. Sunset flip by Jarrett but Page punches him in the face. Page really just has his way with Jarrett before looking for the Deadeye. Page flips in but Jarrett is waiting and double legs him. Sharpshooter by Jarrett! Page gets free and hits the Buckshot. Page could pin him, but elects for a Deadeye.

Winner: Hangman Page

Rating: **. More story than anything else, which is fine, because a new evil Hangman is good stuff.

The Learning Tree jump Hook in the back-room area, before throwing a fireball in his face!

Renee is with Hangman. The Bucks pop in and welcome him back before asking Hangman to join Blood & Guts. Page says he’s not their man and not their puppet and doesn’t need any more games.

Match #5. AEW International Championship: Will Ospreay (c) vs. Danny Garcia w/ MJF

Ospreay gets the better of Garcia early and MJF tells him that it ain’t nothing, and he’s Daniel Garcia. Hip toss by Garcia and a head lock take over. Ospreay responds in kind. OSpreay has wrist control and chops Garcia down, but Garcia fights back now with a flurry of right hands. Garcia ducks a clothesline and hits a pair of swinging neckbreakers and a spike DDT. There’s the third neckbreaker. Two count. Garcia runs into a pair of boots in the corner and Ospreay follows up with a Phenomenal Forearm for a two count. Ospreay now takes his time, taunting Garcia, and now delivering some Kawada kicks.

Back flip kick and a step-up enziguiri by Ospreay. Liger Bomb by Ospreay right into a Styles Clash! Two count.

Garcia blocks an OsCutter and spikes Ospreay with a piledriver! Two count. MJF slides his Dynamite Diamond Ring to Garcia but Ospreay rolls him up for two and both guys trade near falls. Lariat by Garcia! MJF tells Garcia to use the ring, but Garcia thinks better of it and gives it back to MJF. Hidden Blade by Ospreay who was waiting in the wings! One, two, three!

Winner and STILL AEW International Champion: Daniel Garcia

Rating: ***3/4. Excellent match here in the main event, with the only drawback being that it felt a bit rushed, and we could have easily had 5-10 more minutes. Garcia has reached another level lately and he’ll get there, but not just yet.

After the match, MJF tells Garcia the people still love him and he busted his ass. MJF celebrates with Garcia and then he kicks him low! Classic MJF. MJF lines Garcia up with the ring but Matt Menard is here to make he save, only to get cracked in the face himself. MJF cracks him in the face and then spits at the crowd. MJF now stands over the bloody Garcia before fighting off security, and now ground and pounding Garcia, bloodying him up even more. MJF then decides to tombstone Garcia off the top rope, and does. Christopher Daniels and the rest of the AEW staff are here and MJF doesn’t care. MJF mounts Garcia again but Will Ospreay comes back out and MJF scampers throughout the crowd.

Final Thoughts: Now THIS felt like a special episode tonight. The wrestling was strong throughout, and we had a lot of good storylines. Of course, go out of your way to see Danielson vs. Pac and Garcia vs. Ospreay, great wrestling to bookend this week’s show. The Mercedes and Britt confrontation felt special, we’re working towards Blood & Guts, and MJF is doing vintage MJF things. 8.75/10.
