Taped in Arlington, Texas. 

Happy All In: London weekend! 

Tony Schiavone & Nigel McGuinness were on commentary.

Kyle Kyle O’Reilly, Mark Briscoe & Tomohiro Ishii defeated  Brian Cage, The Beast Mortos & Johnny TV (w/Taya Valkyrie) (12:17)

Ishii and Mortos had a great “meaty men slapping meat” exchange. Cage got the tag against Briscoe, and fell to some redneck kung fu. O’Reilly got the tag, and fell victim to a full nelson slam. O’Reilly got in trouble in the heel corner, and fell victim to a Johnny TV moonsault while trapped by Mortos. 

After the split-screen break, O’Reilly got the tag to Ishii to set up round two between Ishii and Mortos. Ishii dropped both Mortos and Brian Cage with brainbusters, then floored Johnny TV with a forearm. A suplex from Cage set up Ishii for a spear from Mortos for a near fall. Ishii ducked clotheslines from Cage and Mortos, who clotheslined each other. Briscoe got the tag and hit chops and forearms on Johnny TV and Cage. A gamengiri took out Cage, and a half-and-half suplex put Johnny TV down. Briscoe went for the Jay Driller, but Cage broke that up and the match fell apart with everyone hitting moves. Mortos hit O’Reilly with a Samoan Drop, but Ishii hit a sliding clothesline.

Briscoe set up a chair in the ring for a springboard, but Valkyrie pulled the chair out of the ring. This distraction sent the flight to the floor, and Johnny TV and Morstos hit dives on the floor. Brisco followed out with a tope on Johnny TV.  Valkyrie distracted Briscoe again, but he still took Cage out with a shotgun dropkick. 

O’Reilly and Ishii hit a clothesline/legsweep combination on Johnny TV. O’Reilly then suplexed Johnny TV and locked on an armbar, and Johnny TV tapped out. 

Fun party match, especially the parts with Ishii and Mortos.

Roderick Strong (w/ Mike Bennett & Matt Taven) defeated Fuego Del Sol (3:19)

The crowd was behind native Texan Del Sol, but Strong mauled him from the jump. Del Sol caught Strong with an enziguri to get a rollup for a near fall. Del Sol railled and went to the top rope, but Strong caught him with a kick, then gave Del Sol a full nelson slam onto the top turnbuckle. Strong then hit the End of Heartache for the pinfall. 

Strong and the Undisputed Era had a second little confrontation with O’Reilly at the top of the ramp. 

Mina Shirakawa defeated  Robyn Renegade (6:39)

Okay, here we go! The crowd chanted for Mina at the opening bell, and why shouldn’t they? She’s awesome. The crowd chanted “Let’s go Mina!” chants, and Shirakawa was eating it up. Shirakawa hit Renegade with a Russian Leg Sweep, then worked over Renegade’s leg. Renegade came back and hit Shirakawa with a running knee in the corner. 

After a split-screen break, Renegade got a near fall after a double-stomp while Mina was hung up in the ropes. Shirawaka came back with a dragon screw legwhip into a figure-four attempt, but Renegade escaped. Renegade hit a clothesline, but Shirawaka escaped a suplex attempt, then locked on the figure four. Shirakawa bridged up, and Renegade tapped out. Great win for a returning Mina. 

– Lexi Nair interviewed agitated Hikaru Shida, who walked into last year’s All In a champion but doesn’t have a place on this year’s card. Shida called herself the “Ace of the Women’s Division” and promised to show everyone why. 

Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona) defeated  The Iron Savages (Boulder & Bronson) w/Jacked Jameson (3:06)

I don’t ever think I’ll understand why this “Iron Savages” thing is better than “Bear Country.” But the crowd was fired up for Bronson and Tao Liona exchanging hard blows. Tags were made to Bishop Kaun and Boulder, and they just hammered each other to the crowd’s delight. Bounder finally dropped Kaun with a flying clothesline, but he came back with a Samaon Drop. 

Boulder got the tag and fell victim to a high back bodydrop. Kaun followed up with a hip attack in the corner. Leona hit a charging knee in the corner, and the Gates of Agony finished Bronson off with a double team crucifix slam. 

This match was the best ever argument for AEW booking smaller venues for their TV. The crowd was loud and completely into this match, elevating it into something fun in a way that just doesn’t come across when they have small crowds in big buildings. The crowd elevated everything tonight, but it was really apparent here.

Ross & Marshall Von Erich (w/Dustin Rhodes) defeated The Outrunners (w/Erica Leigh) (9:54)

Of course the Outrunners are in the main event. 

Ross hit a nice dropkick on Truth Magnum. Marshall Von Erich and Turbo Floyd exchanged bodyslams. The Von Erichs sent both of the Outrunners to the floor with double dropkicks. 

After the split-screen break, Ross fought his way out of a chinlock. Floyd went for a suplex, but Ross shifted his weight and fell on top of Floyd for a near fall. Ross was in trouble for several minutes, but the crowd got behind the Von Erichs. Marshall hit Floyd with a dropkick and dropped Magnum to the floor.  He finally got the tag to Marshall. Marshall hit Magnum with a discus punch. Marshall dropkicked Magnum off the turnbuckle, then hit Floyd with a cannonball in the corner. Marshall followed up with a moonsault on Floyd.. Magnum and Ross each locked in a claw on one of the Outrunners, and got the pinfall. This was okay. 

After the match, The Undisputed Era and the Gates of Agony came out to attack the Von Erichs and Rhdoes. Sammy Guevara and The Conglomeration made the save. 

I came into this show expecting something low energy and low effort, but the crowd brought a lot of energy and responded well to everything.
