It’s Monday and you know what that means: a seven-match AEW Dark: Elevation taped last Wednesday at the Cable Dahmer Arena in Independence, Missouri.
Excalibur and Mark Henry were on the call tonight.
Nyla Rose defeated Max the Impaler
This was Max’s AEW debut. Rose started strong, but Max was able to withstand Rose’s strength. Despite Max initially being able to match Rose’s power, it was not enough. The former AEW Women’s Champion picked up the win after a massive Beast Bomb to improve her overall record to 70-28.
Private Party defeated Camaro Jackson & SK Bishop
Private Party used a new finisher — a combination of a neckbreaker and shooting star press — to win this squash.
Ortiz defeated Anaya
This was Anaya’s AEW debut and it was a short one. Ortiz used a fisherman’s buster to get the win as he heads into Wednesday’s hair vs. hair match against Chris Jericho.
ROH Women’s Champion Mercedes Martinez & Serena Deeb defeated Miranda Gordy & Tootie Lynn
Gordy is the daughter of the late wrestling legend, Terry Gordy. Martinez did an impressive delayed standing suplex on Lynn which the crowd always goes nuts for. This was a very easy match for the veterans and there was nothing Gordy and Lynn could do about it. Martinez used the Brass City Sleeper on Lynn to earn the submission win.
Matt Minard & Angelo Parker defeated Danny Adams & Warhorse
The former 2point0 destroyed Adams which helped build to a Warhorse hot tag that the crowd loved. Minard and Parker used double DDTs on Warhorse to get the win with yet another five-star performance, improving their tag team record to 11-3 this year.
Ruby Soho defeated Heidi Howitzer
Howitzer had the early advantage because of her massive size advantage. Soho lost her temper and worked a more aggressive style than the one we are used to seeing with her. Soho used Destination Unknown to get the job done.
Dark Order (Evil Uno & Ten) defeated The Factory (Aaron Solo & QT Marshall)
This was another chapter in The Factory vs. Dark Order feud. The Factory went to their heel shenanigans per usual, but the Dark Order boys were always one step ahead of them. Ten did an impressive delayed vertical suplex that lasted ten seconds to Solo and Evil Uno followed it up with a delayed vertical suplex of his own that lasted just one second. Ten used his full nelson on Solo to get the win.
This was the best match on the show.
