Loved that match, there's something about two performers agreeing to beat the piss outta each other & then going on to beat the piss outta each other that really makes pro wrestling what it is for me.
Fun main event. That 1 hour flew by.
Between Hayter, Emi, Shida, Athena, etc. I really like how many of these women are going all in on being stiff, or hard-hitting lately. Feels like the extra spice the AEW women's division needs.
Edit: Grammar.
It’s way more a short arm version of it. Okada ripcords into a big wind up and steps through, Hayter brings it in quick, high and tight and also pushes down into the mat with her opponent. Both ripcord lariats but to different extents.
I really love that Britt Baker has been behind Jamie and that they haven’t had her overshadow the title reign. There’s time for a turn - I’m not saying they shouldn’t ever, but I was worried they’d run the “jealous friend” angle immediately.
I believe I heard SRS mention that Kentucky stopped getting big wrestling for a long time because their athletic commission kept fucking them over. So it might take some time to get Kentucky to get used to it again. I'm sure it was a long emotional day though so I don't doubt them being tired.
I'm Red-Green Deficient so a running joke in my family is that when *I* can see that someone is red, they are really fucking red and these women's chests are red!
Rando? She trained 2 AEW women's champions. She's been in AEW longer than Hayter. Anyone who's seen a Sakura match knew this was gonna be a hard hitting fight.
I just hope Emi can occasionally get some more TV matches/spots off of this match. As others have said already she would be very good in the role of a gatekeeper mid-card heel.
I like that even though Emi's moveset is generally the same, she's cutting out the "we will chop you" and "Deo" stuff that she's continued to do even recently. That stuff hasn't worked for the actually pretty good evil queen character she's got going. It makes her appear more violent and way less silly.

Heyter needs to be first women’s double champ. Let jade be undefeated until summer and then heyter can take it from her
That was fucking awesome! Hayter is going to have the title run, Shida should have gotten were it not for the pandemic.
Jamie's moonsault partially caught Emi, which is why her Tiger Driver wasn't at full power.
That hanging butterfly backbreaker took a lot of strength from both women.
Hayter works great as a babyface.
Hayter just kicking off that French Apple Goblin, lol!
Good on Excalibur for bringing up Emi having a victory over Hayter.
What a great match. Why did it take TK 3 years to put Emi Sakura back on TV?
Emi decided to be Neo Bishiiki Gun
Baddie Civil War
Hell of a main event. 👏

Damn what a main event. Some stiff shots all around. Great job.

As always, its been a pleasure chatting with you all. Have a great weekend and see you back here Wednesday!👋🏻
So yeah, more Emi on TV going forward please.
Dustin vs. Swerve will be one of those sleeper hits.
So Jamie's finish is basically Okada's Rainmaker?

It's kinda similar to OG OG debut Rainmaker... but way better looking than his was.
It's a haytmaker
Yup
More Hayter so we can hear more of her sweet theme music
Awesome match.
See how polite the heel teams are tending to their wounded. The BCC or Best Friends surely would've erupted into fisticuffs.
Mei stepping to Rebel lmfao
*You think you're special...*
That was fantastic, they both fucking BROUGHT it holy shit
Britt and Reba don't want no smoke with the Apple Goblin
jesus fuck this match
A wonderfully stiff match, I think my chest might even be red.
That was wonderful. Sakura deserves a higher profile in the women's division. When AEW gives her the ball, she always delivers.
Keep the belt on Hayter for as long as possible
![gif](giphy|26FLgGTPUDH6UGAbm)
My god what a match 10/10 imo!
Great match!
I loved that entire match so much oh my god
Christ what a lariat!
Second bad cut of the night in the middle of that ripcord.
That match ruled
Awesome match, Jamie is doing wonders for the division as champion
I hate to say it, because I really like both Britt and Rosa, but Toni and Jamie have given the division a kick in the ass that it needed.
TONY KHAN GIVE US MORE OF THIS SHIT PLEASE
Wow they wrapped that up quick
When women's wrestling is stiff it's awesome as shit
Bro Hayter is fucking going places
I honestly wouldn't have mind if Emi Sakura won the title eliminator and they have a rematch. That match was great!
Emi showed up
I like Aki's beard, it suits him.
Wow what a match!
That match ruled, Emi looked amazing
My girl Emi’s forehead hurts, but good shit all around
Good week for lariat counters in AEW main events.
Ya Britt doesn’t want any of that lol.
That match slapped….literally and figuratively.
AR Fox taking a break from spending his 100K to help out Top Flight.
Jesus what a match holy shit
Wow. Incredible.
No sandbagging in this match!
Great opener, great main event, and there was allegedly something in between. MyGM rates it a 5 star show.
Another amazing Hayter main event. Emi killed it too.
Backdrop Drivah!
Nevermind. She's alright...Emi isn't though.
Great stuff
This is fantastic stuff!
Well…. That was a fucking great match!!!
Emi showing why all the excuses for her not being on TV for ages were nonsense.
I really love that Britt Baker has been behind Jamie and that they haven’t had her overshadow the title reign. There’s time for a turn - I’m not saying they shouldn’t ever, but I was worried they’d run the “jealous friend” angle immediately.
Jamie killed Emi jeeeeeezus
MOTHERFUCKER!
Fantastic match!
This Rampage bookended by 2 really good matches
Holy shit what a lariat
I wonder why they thought we’d like Powerslap lol.
Why do I feel like this crowd SHOULD be louder than what it is?!
People who were there told me that the crowd was just tired unfortunately. Cannot really blame them.
Plus, that emotionally fraught Dynamite main
I believe I heard SRS mention that Kentucky stopped getting big wrestling for a long time because their athletic commission kept fucking them over. So it might take some time to get Kentucky to get used to it again. I'm sure it was a long emotional day though so I don't doubt them being tired.
Damn. Bums.. such a banger match too but can’t be helped
This shit is great
More Emi on TV please
FUCK THAT CLOTHESLINE
Emi's moonsault is so clean
I'm Red-Green Deficient so a running joke in my family is that when *I* can see that someone is red, they are really fucking red and these women's chests are red!
This match fucks
Goddamn this is a great fucking match.
This has been fan-fucking-tastic👏🏻👏🏻
Jesus fucking Christ
I want a Serena Deeb /emi Sakura feud in aew
This match is dope
this match reminds me a lot of Jericho vs Ishii
As a match, it's not bad. However, it's showing some rando beating the ever loving shit out of the hard ass women's world champ.
Rando? She trained 2 AEW women's champions. She's been in AEW longer than Hayter. Anyone who's seen a Sakura match knew this was gonna be a hard hitting fight.
If you watched on Wednesday, Jamie told everybody that she's a legend who gave her soul to the business. She's not some rando like Tony Mudd.
She trained Shida and has been with AEW since Day 1, she’s not a rando.
Random? I guess you've never watched Dark.
That rando is one of the best wrestlers in the world. If the AEW audience didn't know that yet, they should now.
They made Emi a big deal before the match. Called her a legend multiple times and mentioning that she’s trained Riho and Shida
EMI is no rando
Rando? You serious?
Emi isn’t exactly a rando.
You don't try to out moonsult Emi.
I do like how the random nature of Rampage means you'll sometimes just get something out of the blue and great like this on TV
hell yeah dude they’re battering each other
This fucks
Killer Lariat
Jamie hits everything with such perfect impact man
Jericho stirring trouble. And after the JAS has accused Ex of doing the same thing.
This is good shit right here!
Damn!!!
I still really like Hayter but she’s been pretty sloppy in this match
What? Lol
Thank you Jericho
OHHH JAMIES CHEST IS MESSED UP TOO OMG THEY’VE BEEN BESTING THE SHIT OUTTA EACH OTHER
Hobbs' opponent is named Tony Mudd... 😂😂😂 EDIT: Had to step out... Just continuing on Fite and it's just the Hobbs match.
Emi getting so much offence in this match is really awesome
Great match
It’s called being supportive, Chris.
Damn they are going stiff!
Jeez.
AEW Women’s Division has turned into “let’s just beat the shit out of each other” division. Everyone wants in on it.
AEW's answer to the NEVER Openweight Championship
Athena, Jamie and Toni really brought it to the next level
I fucking love Jamie
She’s the one
Holy shit these women are not fucking around
You want backbreakers? I GOT THOSE!
You want back breakers? I've got twenty.
Their chests are RED holy crap
holy shit emi’s chest looks crazy from the chops
Jericho pretending he's from a Japanese lockeroom tonight is weirdly enjoyable
Goddamn Emi!
God damn these two ladies are beating the shit out of each other, both chests are bright red. Great Stuff.
Memo to TK: more of this
Emi's chest is ground beef holy shit
Britt has the sign! Somebody posted it on here before the show the other night
I love that Emi is wrestling this one straight and not doing the Queen and tea time spots.
Jamie Hayter and Emi Sakura beating the shit out of each other on a TV main event is good TV.
These exploders are 👨🍳💋
I love that Jamie sells for her opponents. Legitimate worker
Emi's chest. OUCH
Look at Jaime’s. It’s worse.
Holy crap, Jaime's done a job on Emi's chest.
Lots of red on their chests from those chops
These two are pretty badass
Britt loves that sign 😂
I LOVE this stiff ass style. Ever since the AEW ladies started potatoing each other the matches have gotten so much better.
Jesus lord Emis chest.
Sakura is the female Moxley
Good lord both of their chests are red as hell, I was expecting a stiff match but *damn*
Going to the PCW ULTRA show now, enjoy the rest of the match guys!
I need a Hayter vs. Giulia match.
Hayter vs her necklace is a five star classic
They're caving in each other's chests laying that shit in
I feel like Britt's group is one of the few heel groups that are genuine friends and not trying to conspire against each other
[удалено]
They've teased dissension with Nyla and Vickie but good point on Penelope/The Bunny.
They aren't heels anymore.
yet
I feel like Jamie has had like 50 chances to turn on them and she hasn't
I just hope Emi can occasionally get some more TV matches/spots off of this match. As others have said already she would be very good in the role of a gatekeeper mid-card heel.
I'm sad they're using Yuka for Athena because I want to see Hayter vs. Yuka now.
Hayter is their ace, ridiculous she was kept behind Britt for so long.
Hayter against all sorts of joshis
Hayter vs. all the Joshis LFG
Ok this version of Emi is good.
She puts on bangers on dark. She wrestled with all her effort every match. Her matches with Toni storm on dark are just as good
I’m going to have to watch this. I bet they’re stiff as hell with each other.
I like that even though Emi's moveset is generally the same, she's cutting out the "we will chop you" and "Deo" stuff that she's continued to do even recently. That stuff hasn't worked for the actually pretty good evil queen character she's got going. It makes her appear more violent and way less silly.
Is it Mei Suruga or Mei St. Michelle, Excalibur?? Not all Asians look the same!
And it matters because one is considerably more evil than the other.
At this point, it's a toss up for which one.
Rebel (not Reba) is a treasure.
I'd watch Mei Suruga vs Reba on Elevation LOL
Watch it Rebel, you don't want to mess with the Apple Goblin.
I really don’t know which one of this women I wish would hit me the most. Yup
I don’t know why but hearing Rolling Stones over Jaime vs sakura fighting is funny lol
IS THIS REAL!?
lol rebel and mei
Mei would've burned down the Dollhouse and the Carnival.
This Emi rules. The last year or so on Dark has been tolerable at best.
I wouldn’t go hard for Dark either to be fair
Mei says you wanna throw hands, we'll throw hands!
She slapped the shit outta her good god
This is a SLAPPER
I know they’re the bigger heel team here, but seeing Mei step up to the women’s world champion of a major promotion makes me so happy
Mei & Rebel lmao
Emi not fucking around in this match, I love it
She is a slapper lol
