🎙️ Rundown — AEW & NWA
Presented by Ed & Gordon.
🟦 DESK INTRO
Ed: “Fans, the wrestling world has been hotter than a depot stove this weekend! All Elite Wrestling rolled into a pivotal week on the road to Double or Nothing, and the National Wrestling Alliance delivered a bruising Powerrr on COMET that shook the studio walls!”
Gordon: “Indeed. A most eventful stretch — championships defended, alliances tested, and tempers flaring across both promotions.”
🟥 ALL ELITE WRESTLING
⭐ Darby Allin’s Reign Intensifies
After surviving Brody King on Dynamite, Darby entered the week battered but defiant. MJF continued stalking him, demanding a title shot while refusing to “put anything on the line,” which Darby insists is the only way he’ll accept.
Ed: “Fans, that young man is wrestling like he’s got nothing to lose and everything to prove!”
Gordon: “A most dangerous mindset — for champion and challenger alike.”
⭐ Will Ospreay vs. Death Riders Escalates
The fallout from Ospreay’s abduction continued. The Death Riders taunted him in a pre‑taped segment, promising “the next strike is coming soon.” Ospreay vowed retaliation.
⭐ Women’s Division Movement
- Jamie Hayter remains not cleared, altering Collision plans.
- Thekla & Skye Blue continued their momentum with another strong showing.
- The Women’s Tag Champions, Divine Dominion, remain dominant after Dynamite.
