Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Full Gear PPV in Los Angeles, CA:
Pre-show:
ROH World Champion Eddie Kingston beat Jay Lethal to retain the title.
Claudio Castagnoli beat Buddy Matthews by submission.
ROH Tag Team Champions MJF & Samoa Joe beat Gunn Club to retain the titles. Adam Cole returned during the match.
PPV:
Darby Allin, Adam Copeland & Sting beat Christian Cage, Luchasaurus & Nick Wayne.
MJF is not medically cleared for the main event. Adam Cole will defend the AEW World Championship for him.
AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy beat Jon Moxley to retain the title. (To my dismay this probably means he’s never losing it)
Toni Storm beat AEW Women’s World Cahampion Hikaru Shida to become THE NEW AEW WOMEN’S WORLD CHAMPION! Cheated of course.
In a Ladder Match, AEW Tag Team Champions Ricky Starks & Big Bill beat FTR, LFI and Malakai Black & Brody King to retain the titles.
Julia Hart beat AEW TBS Champion Kris Statlander & Skye Blue in a 3-way by pinning Blue to become THE NEW AEW TBS CHAMPION! The House (Pretty Much) Always Wins.
Tony Khan promised a huge free agent signing would be announced and that person would sign their AEW contract tonight. It was revealed to be Will Ospreay. But he won’t be in AEW for a while as his New Japan contract is not up until February. Then he’ll be coming over. Well, at least it wasn’t Iceberg (Bill Goldberg) but some will be disappointed with it not being Mercedes Mone. I was thinking maybe it could be Mickie James.
The Continental Classic Tournament begins Wednesday and they are making ANOTHER new title that will go to the winner-the AEW Continental Champion. AND whoever wins will hold an AEW Triple Crown because Eddie Kingston will be defending both the ROH World Championship and the New Japan STRONG Openweight Championship in every match he’s in. I didn’t care for the tournament before and now I care even less. And AEW doesn’t need more titles unless Tony Khan is trying to sweeten WBD into a new and better TV deal. There are 4 entrants so far after this announcement: Bryan Danielson, Kingston, Andrade El Idolo, Mark Briscoe. (Triple Crown suggests the eventual winner will probably be Kingston). Tournament ends on 12/30 at the Worlds’ End PPV.
In a Texas Death Match (no pinfalls, submissions, DQs, countouts, only win by 10 count down), Swerve Strickland beat Adam Page.
Kenny Omega & Chris Jericho beat The Young Bucks. As a result, The Bucks lose their guaranteed anytime, anywhere AEW Tag Team Championship shot to The Winnipeg Jets.
MJF showed up in an ambulance as Adan Cole was coming out for the main event. Which led to…
AEW World Champion MJF beat Jay White to retain the title.
End Show.
The post-event media scrum will begin shortly (just after midnight ET/9 PM PT) and can be watched LIVE FOR FREE on YouTube.
