00:00The Rascals have been seeing such great success.
00:02It really feels like one of them are on the precipice of a huge singles breakout.
00:07Desmond, of course, watched Wentz's match last week against Jon Moxley.
00:10So tonight he's coming into this with a game plan.
00:13He told me he's going to be a high flyer, but he's going to be a smart high flyer
00:17using some Rascals shenanigans to knock Jon Moxley off of his game.
00:22Thank you for that, Renee.
00:23Yeah, it was a tough match for Zachary Wentz, another member of the Rascals.
00:27This past Saturday night at Collision, Tony.
00:30Coming up short against Jon Moxley.
00:31I agree with Renee, Taz.
00:33I think the members of the Rascals are right on the edge of doing something very big in singles competition.
00:40Not only in trios or in tag, but in singles as well.
00:44No, I don't disagree.
00:45I just feel like it's a tall order.
00:47I know it's an eliminated match here, Continental Championship eliminated match,
00:50but you're dealing with a guy in Moxley who is just usually just a step ahead of his opponents.
00:56Very dangerous competitor right there with a lot of experience.
00:59And Taz, remember, in these Continental Championship eliminator matches,
01:01it is a 20-minute time limit.
01:03Everyone is banned from rink's side.
01:05But crucially for Desmond Xavier, should he survive the 20 minutes, that is as good as a win.
01:11He will earn a shot by the Continental Champion.
01:13That's a huge caveat.
01:14Yeah.
01:18From Dayton, Ohio.
01:19Wing 185 pounds.
01:23Desmond Xavier.
01:26And Renee Paquette talked about the hot streak.
01:29The Rascals have head on as a trio.
01:31Four and one in their last five.
01:34This is two weeks ago.
01:35A collision.
01:36Myron Reed, Zachary Wentz, and Desmond Xavier.
01:39They will fire on all cylinders, Tony.
01:41Yeah, they look great together.
01:43They are so athletic.
01:44And I think that's what Desmond's got to do tonight's head.
01:47Be very athletic.
01:48Be very quick.
01:49We'll jump up to the just soon to pound Desmond Xavier in the ground.
01:53Yeah, that key is the word quick that you use, Shabani.
01:56And that's what Desmond Xavier really needs to focus on.
02:00His speed, his athleticism.
02:03Avoid staying on the ground with a seasoned pro, a multi-time world champion, you know, in Jarmusch.
02:12I'd say it's great to have Desmond back with us.
02:15It's been quite a journey for him, not only in wrestling, but personally.
02:19You've got to put all that stuff aside, man, and you've got to look at what's looking across the ring
02:25at you, man.
02:26Well, the thing is, when you're in the ring, you know, like, everything goes away, no matter positive, negative in
02:30your real life.
02:31Right.
02:32And it's therapeutic.
02:33As to be a pro wrestler at times, when you compete, when you get to wrestle, it's therapeutic.
02:37Everything goes away, and you just compete.
02:40Yeah, Desmond spoke recently about the passing of his grandmother, who was so influential in his, not just upbringing,
02:47but is in his career, and so he passed our condolences, not only to Desmond, but his family and his
02:51friends as well.
02:53But right now, John Oxley.
02:55He's focused.
02:56He's fired up, Moss.
02:57He showed a lot of power.
02:58It's on the lockup and chucking, you know, chucking Desmond to the mat.
03:03But I think Xavier was, Xavier was smart not to rush into nothing.
03:06Now he got himself a drop step into a quick side headlock.
03:11Now, Taz, 20-minute time limit, and as you know, the time is on the side of Desmond and Xavier
03:16here.
03:16Yeah, like Excalibur pointed that out, you're right.
03:19I mean, that's key.
03:20You've got to play that time management game.
03:23Moxley rolling into a pinning predicament, but Desmond able to keep the headlock on and get back to a vertical
03:30position.
03:30I mean, I don't think it's a stretch to say, knowing Desmond Xavier, you know, listen, he's going to try
03:38and get the win here.
03:38He wants to be victorious.
03:40I don't think he just wants to play time management, Excalibur.
03:42But it is in his favor, like we're saying.
03:44Yeah, nobody wants to win that way, but you'll take it if you can get it.
03:49But Desmond, he's going to look to finish off Jon Moxley before that 20-minute mark.
03:54Nice T-Harris there by Desmond Xavier.
03:58Moxley switching around there.
03:59You see the quickness of Xavier.
04:03And now punishing the body of the Continental Champion.
04:06Oh, but took a moment to announce referee Paul Turner and pays the price for it.
04:11Yeah, well, Jon is very heavy-handed.
04:14He's got a size advantage on Desmond Xavier.
04:16So, you know, when he brings those chops, Siobhan, you're going to feel it.
04:20You know, another thing here, Taz, too, I think it's very obvious that what Jon Moxley has been doing ever
04:25since Wembley,
04:26he's been facing a lot of some of the great high flyers, A.R. Fox, Speedball Mike Bailey.
04:31We saw him against Zachary Wentz.
04:33So I think he's really prepping for the world title match, probably against the greatest high flyer of them all,
04:39and, of course, the world champion, Will Ospreay.
04:41I think that statement by you, Shivani, is phenomenal.
04:44I think you're 1 billion percent correct.
04:46Everything you just said.
04:48Desmond Xavier over the top.
04:49Moxley back into the ring.
04:51But Xavier landed on his feet.
04:53Sort of in the midsection.
04:55Xavier over the top.
04:59Oh, Moxley!
05:00High Boots shuts down.
05:02Desmond Xavier is this eliminator for the AEW Continental Championship continues live from Indianapolis.
05:09Hey, Jon, off his tight.
05:12Hey, hey, hey, Jon.
05:13Oh, trouble.
05:14Trouble for all of us.
05:17Possibly.
05:18Well, trouble for Desmond Xavier most certainly set hard into the steel steps.
05:24Well, I thought Jon Moxley, I thought he was going to go for the chair where the security officer was
05:28sitting, but, nope.
05:30Didn't need to.
05:32Steel, the steel steps did the work for him.
05:36Moxley, Moxley, Moxley, Moxley, Moxley, Moxley, Moxley, Moxley, Moxley.
05:53But he is no nonsense, brother.
05:56Jon Moxley has an opportunity this Saturday night to become the first man to simultaneously hold the AEW Continental Championship
06:03and the AEW World Championship.
06:06He's a multi-time AEW World Champion.
06:09Former World Champion.
06:11So it's not out of the realm of possibilities for this Saturday, Taz.
06:15No, no, it definitely is not.
06:17I mean, yeah, I think that, you know, now he's going for a single leg grab here as Moxley.
06:22You know, Siobhan, the thing is, like, Mox, again, I love the point you made about him competing against a
06:28plethora of, you know, aerial type of wrestlers, high flyers.
06:33And then you deal with someone like Ospreay come all out, you know, who's the world champion, right, who can
06:38fly like an eagle.
06:41And not only, Taz, I really think, say what you want to do about Jon Moxley, I think he taught
06:47Will Ospreay a lot during that short span when Ospreay was training with the Death Riders.
06:52I think Ospreay really picked up his game.
06:55Well, I think Ospreay also learned what makes Moxley tick.
06:59Yeah.
07:00This is a big deal.
07:01You are right.
07:02Taz Counterpoint, though, Jon Moxley and the Death Riders, they learned the tendencies of Will Ospreay by training so closely
07:09together for that time.
07:10And they don't know, it's not a completely open book, but it's more than they would have known had they
07:15not trained together at all.
07:16Yeah, no, I think, yeah, I think that's a very valid point.
07:19Yeah, mix it all together.
07:20It's going to make for one of the more interesting world title matches we've had in quite a while.
07:24I'll tell you that.
07:25Remember earlier this year, Will Ospreay, when he's returned to Antoinette surgery, he faced Jon Moxley.
07:32And Moxley is the better man that night.
07:34Will it be the case in Chicago 72 hours from now?
07:37One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
07:41Welcome back to this special three-hour broadcast live on TBS and HBO Max.
07:46Jon Moxley, the AEW Continental Champion, facing Desmond Xavier in this eliminator match for Moxley's Continental Championship.
07:5320-minute time limit, everyone is banned from ringside.
07:56If Desmond Xavier wins or goes the time limit, he will earn a shot at Moxley's Continental Championship.
08:02But Moxley trying to pick up Des in that gotch-style pile of driver, but Desmond Xavier escapes.
08:08Yeah, he blocked it perfectly, lowering his level, meaning Xavier, and blocked at that gotch-style pile of ground.
08:14Watch out, this guy can fly here.
08:16Desmond through the second and third rope.
08:18I'm not sure if that was a headbutt or a shoulder, but it caught Moxley flush.
08:24Here's the opportunity here for you, Des.
08:26Now you got, that's what you want.
08:28You want to stop flying around a little bit.
08:29And he rocked.
08:30He definitely rocked Moxley with that.
08:32Yeah, look at Moxley in the corner.
08:34Desmond needs to be careful here.
08:36See, Moxley got his eyes, his head straight ahead.
08:39Moxley springs forward.
08:40Des though, ready for it.
08:41Leaves underneath.
08:42Thrust kick.
08:44There's the quickness we talked about.
08:49Chops to the chest.
08:51Three consecutive chops as part of this three-hour broadcast.
08:54And immediately following our broadcast tonight on TVS and HBO Max, it will be the countdown to All Out.
09:00An inside look at some of the biggest stories coming up this Saturday.
09:02And then live coast-to-coast this Saturday, 7 p.m. Eastern, 4 p.m. Pacific on TNT.
09:07It's the tailgate brawl featuring two big matches already announced.
09:12Wait a second.
09:13Desmond Xavier.
09:14Oh, no.
09:15Moxley able to kick out Jungle Jack Perry.
09:18Katsuyori Shabbat, a member of the Ops, going one-on-one this Saturday night, plus a big eight-man tag
09:25team brawl.
09:26It will be the Bang Bang Gang taking on Daniel Garcia, Wheeler-Yuda, David Finley, Clark Connors, the Dogs, and
09:33the Death Riders.
09:34Moxley intercepts the kick of Desmond Xavier.
09:36German suplex.
09:37What a great way to kick off All Out coming up this weekend, man.
09:41What a big weekend in Chicago.
09:45That was a kick.
09:46That might have been a toe kick from John Moxley as he hoists up Desmond Xavier.
09:51And now could be thinking Oklahoma Stampede will never know because Des finds his feet.
09:57Uppercut thrust kick again.
09:58Open-handed shot.
10:01And comes through with the cutter.
10:04Smart go for a cover quick here.
10:06Barlake is hooked.
10:09And Moxley able to kick out.
10:12Moxley's also Excalibur been able in many ways to shut down Desmond Xavier's high flying with the exception of the
10:18tope through the ropes.
10:19Basically, it's been on the ground toe-to-toe.
10:23And Des, you think that'll be Moxley's blueprint for this Saturday against Will Ospreay?
10:28Shut down the high flying round the more agile opponent.
10:32I would think so.
10:33I would think that's what Moxley's going to go for.
10:35Watch out.
10:35Whoa!
10:36Des just caught Mox with that kick.
10:39That was impressive.
10:40Oh, but...
10:41Oh!
10:41Oxley!
10:43Fires back an explosive lariat from the Continental Champion.
10:48Blast him.
10:49And what a shot.
10:52I thought there was a moment there, Shivani, where Des started to build some momentum.
10:56But that clothesline was the difference maker.
10:58Yeah, that double-flip Pele kick off the ropes looked like he had the momentum going his way.
11:03You're right.
11:03But, man, Moxley just...
11:05He's just a fighter.
11:06That's all he is.
11:07He just keeps his grip coming back every time.
11:11Yeah, those flip kicks are tough to deal with.
11:14Gimmick Schnabitz kick.
11:15Now, low kick to the knees from Desmond Xavier as Des...
11:19I love it.
11:20...up to the top.
11:22Moxley still down inside the ring.
11:24No.
11:26Moxley pulled in.
11:28Desmond Xavier adjusted, but the John Woo dropkick.
11:32No, Des comes back with a Meteora.
11:34Yeah, Mox got cocky.
11:35Thought he had him.
11:37But look at Des here.
11:38A leg hook.
11:39Cover made.
11:40Moxley...
11:40Oh, Moxley!
11:41It escapes out.
11:43What do you say, Des?
11:45Great transition into this real choke here.
11:48And this is deep, deep water for Desmond Xavier.
11:52Moxley.
11:53Come on, Des.
11:53What do you say?
11:54A coin to try to get to the ropes, Excalibur.
11:57Moxley adjusts his grip in order to capture the arm of Desmond Xavier.
12:01Now, turning away from the ropes.
12:04He's done.
12:04There's no way he's getting out.
12:06Once you get the grapes in like that and trap an arm, you're done.
12:09It's impossible to get out of a hole like that when your lips are trapped that much.
12:12There is your winner, the AEW Continental Champion, Jon Moxley.
12:20Completely immobilized him, you know.
12:21So that's very smart right there.
12:23And a great transition by Moxley.
12:25Excalibur to the choke.
12:26You know, Taz, I don't want to bring out, you see the world title.
12:29And the big world title match coming up.
12:31But when Desmond Xavier turned his back to Jon Moxley, tried that pin, he exposed the back of the neck.
12:36And that was it.
12:38Well, I don't think Des has anything to be ashamed about.
12:41He had a hell of an outing out here against a very well-decorated, massive star here in AEW.
12:47Tremendous.
12:47I think Desmond Xavier, you know, should be very proud of that.
12:51Well, Taz, Tony, as we talked about, Jon Moxley has just been cutting a path through high flyers here in
12:58AEW as he faces Will Ospreay this Saturday.
13:02And, of course, a big test for Stephen Borden and Darby Allin this Saturday night as they face Kevin Knight
13:07and Kyle Fletcher in tag team action.
13:13Darby Allin, Steve Borden, this Saturday at All Out, you guys have a huge opportunity to potentially become the number
13:20one contender.
13:21to the AEW World Tag Team Championships.
13:24But ahead of that match, somebody's asked to speak to you guys.
13:33I told Christian to sit this one out so it doesn't get volatile, okay?
13:38You know how I feel about both of you, right?
13:41You've had my back from day one.
13:43You know what I think about you.
13:44You're going to be massive in this industry.
13:47And I want to thank you for helping us last week.
13:50But I watched Collision this Saturday.
13:54After you won your match, you hopped on the microphone and said you wanted to challenge the tag team champions
13:59if you beat Fletcher and Knight at All Out.
14:03I don't know if you know this, but I'm one half of those tag team champions.
14:09So, as much as I know you're going to be massive in reaching for the stars, while I appreciate that
14:15you're reaching past the stars, man, and you're reaching for legends now.
14:19Maybe ask your dad what that means.
14:23And Darby,
14:25I know you know all about climbing mountains, climbing Everest.
14:30But you come after me in cage, that's like climbing two Everests.
14:34Stop.
14:35There's so much I would love to say to you.
14:39But for right now, with all due respect,
14:45challenge accepted.
14:52Be careful what you wish for.
15:05Welcome back to A.W. Dynamite.
15:08The special three-hour broadcast.
15:11Just three days away from All Out on Pay-Per-View on HBO Max.
15:17We are sold out at the No Arena.
15:19Now Arena, if you don't have a ticket, the only way to join us will be on Pay-Per-View.
15:24Ladies and gentlemen, Nick and Matt Jackson.
15:30The Young Bucks.
15:34I've said it before, I know.
15:36I'm going to repeat myself.
15:37The Bucks look better than ever, man.
15:42Three-time former A.W. World Tag Team Champions and two-man Taz.
15:47That could be on the verge of making history this Saturday night in Chicago.
15:51Well, if anyone can pull it off, it's definitely these two men right here, the Young Bucks.
16:00But they will be sharing the ring this Saturday night with four other Tag Team Specialists.
16:06Oh, brother.
16:09Including these two men.
16:17Zach, the Axe, Harwood, Cash, Wheeler, F-T-R.
16:22Of course, Tony.
16:23Dax and Cash, Tag Team Specialist.
16:26Big Stoke Pain-in-the-Hat Specialist.
16:28Oh, you're not kidding.
16:29He's one of the worst, man.
16:30Because when he walks, he stares daggers at you.
16:35I know, Taz, you know what?
16:37He's staring daggers at you, but you know the gears are spinning.
16:39He's conniving.
16:40He's coming up with something.
16:41Of course, and I know you don't have any problem with him, Taz, but what a horrible human being.
16:48Well, just pro-wrestle business.
16:50There's a lot of sketchy people.
16:53Brother.
16:54I've been doing a thing for years, but I think Stoke is kind of a nice guy.
16:57I mean, he might be in the minority.
17:01One half of the AEW World Tag Team Champions, the Rated R Superstar, Adam Kuglin.
17:14I'm going to remind fans just to keep watching here because we might have a fight breakout here.
17:22You've got all the talent and all the egos in the ring.
17:31And the second half of the AEW World Tag Team Champion, Christian Cage.
17:43The battles that Christian Cage and Adam Kuglin have had as a tag team, as a duo, Taz, are nothing
17:49short of legendary.
17:51Especially when there's some furniture involved.
17:53I'm talking chairs, tables, and ladders.
17:56Yeah, no doubt, bona fide experts, decades of experience and success dealing with any type of furniture.
18:03Let's put it that way.
18:05Especially ladders.
18:06I really think they're the ones that, when you're talking about tag teams and ladders,
18:11they're the team that brought ladders into the vernacular for wrestling fans.
18:18All right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right.
18:23We have nothing left to say.
18:28The only reason we're here is so we don't get fined by the greatest boss in the world, Tony Khan.
18:37So wrap this shit up.
18:39We got things to do.
18:42Wait, wait, wait, wait.
18:43Let me get this straight.
18:44So they've got nothing to say.
18:47Nothing to contribute.
18:49That all adds up, actually.
18:51That adds up because when it comes to this match on Saturday,
18:55day, you guys are the Dudley boys.
19:06Now, hey, relax.
19:08You guys don't have much to say, but we do.
19:11You see, we've had multiple opportunities to win those titles back, and we've failed.
19:17You guys beat us at Revolution, and Coping Cage, you guys defeated us at All In.
19:26Our names are the Young Bucks, but we ain't getting any younger.
19:30We get it.
19:32So this might be our last opportunity to win those titles back.
19:37We're going to face reality.
19:39But if this is our last opportunity, we're going to fight like hell to become the first, fourth-time AEW
19:48Tag Team Champions.
19:55Well, let me put your mind at ease, Nick.
19:59This will be your last opportunity.
20:03And it's really starting to piss me off listening to the four of you argue over who's going to be
20:09the first four-time Tag Team Champions in history
20:12when the fact is that Cage and Cope are one-time Tag Team Champions, and that's the way it's going
20:20to stay.
20:22Because there's no denying that you're both great teams, but the difference is Cage and Cope are generational.
20:34Now, there's a little ritual I like to do before big matches, and since I've already done FTR's mothers,
20:45I have a question.
20:47I'm really looking forward to meeting your mother this weekend in Chicago.
20:52Oh, no, I'm not.
20:53Dude.
20:56Enough.
20:57Enough, all right?
21:02You got issues.
21:04I'm going to cut straight to the chase, okay?
21:07I'm sick of hearing all four of you talk about who's going to be a four-time Tag Team Champion
21:12completely disregarding the legends that stand in front of you.
21:20Between the two of us, we have been in over 40, count them, 40 goddamn ladder matches.
21:29So what exactly can you do?
21:32What exactly can you do to us that hasn't already been done, yet we're both here standing?
21:41We have made a career a damn good career.
21:45Jumping off the ladders, kid.
21:49No, no, to be fair, to be fair, Cope, everything that you just said was true.
21:56If it were the year 1999.
22:00The last time, the last time, Cope, we saw you jump off of something high, you crippled
22:06yourself for almost a year.
22:08Uh-oh.
22:10Tony, you had the right of it.
22:11This is going to be very combustible.
22:13As much as I want to see both of you guys fight right now, okay?
22:16As much as I want to see them.
22:18Oh!
22:20And combust it!
22:22Damn!
22:22Things breaking down!
22:24Dax was just trying to calm the heated heads.
22:27And it just got popped.
22:28And now, the Bucs, Copencage, teeing off on one another.
22:33So we're kicked from the Young Bucs.
22:37Shows how quick the Bucs can put the lights out.
22:40Yeah, and Copencage didn't fall off the ladder, but it looks like they did in the ring.
22:43And now surrounding.
22:44Oh, my God.
22:45What?
22:45Cash Wheeler on the outside, gesturing at the ladder.
22:50What do the Young Bucs have in store?
22:55Nick Jackson making the climb on the ladder.
22:57Cash Wheeler.
22:58Cash needs to get out of there.
23:00Going on to security detail.
23:01Coming in to intervene, trying to protect this match.
23:05You know what?
23:06I think it's for the best.
23:07The fans are booing, but my God.
23:09What were they?
23:10What?
23:13Well, a super kick from Matt Jackson.
23:15A giant leap from Nick.
23:21And meanwhile, FTR.
23:25Taking matters in their own hands.
23:27Driving a security guard through the table.
23:29Well, they had bad intentions for Big Stoke right there.
23:33FTR just...
23:35I'm sure Big Stoke was about to get lit up.
23:37I think everybody wanted to see that, but unfortunately not.
23:42Wait a second.
23:43It might not be Big Stoke getting lit up.
23:45It might...
23:46Unfortunately, it might be for the security guard.
23:48It might be his turn.
23:49Yeah, this is so unfair.
23:52They're shitting an example who...
23:54Oh!
23:54Oh my God, that poor guy.
23:58And Tez, we have seen through the years how dangerous...
24:02Oh, Concernos of Meese totally knows that he just escaped certain calamity.
24:09That guy from security was just a sacrificial lamb for a cage of cult to send up.
