Another week, another Death Riders victory, and another instance of Wheeler Yuta proving that he went to the School of Shenanigans, graduating with honors. The Undisputed Kingdom fought hard, but in the end, a well-timed low blow and a sneaky roll-up kept the AEW World Trios Titles right where they were.
How It Went Down
The match started as all great wrestling matches do—with six guys deciding that “rules” are more of a suggestion and immediately launching into a wild brawl. It only settled down after a commercial break (because let’s be real, nothing calms wrestlers down like realizing they can’t be seen on TV for a few minutes).
Once things got official, the Death Riders focused on making Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong regret ever lacing up their boots. But when Adam Cole got tagged in, the momentum shifted, and suddenly Yuta was in deep trouble—like “ankle lock plus a double-team beatdown” kind of trouble.
And then, because of course it did, absolute chaos erupted.
- Claudio Castagnoli tried to use a chair to break things up—because nothing says “teamwork” like felony assault.
- The ref stopped him, because apparently, we’re enforcing rules today.
- Cole & O’Reilly superkicked Claudio into another dimension.
- Yuta, ever the opportunist, took advantage of the madness—low blow to O’Reilly, quick roll-up, and just like that, Death Riders retain.
And Then Things Got Even Weirder
Because the Death Riders don’t know how to win without also attempting a post-match beatdown, they went for bonus violence on the Undisputed Kingdom. Unfortunately for them, Daniel Garcia, Matt Menard, and Angelo Parker ran down to break things up, possibly because they’re next in line for a shot.
But wait—there’s more! Jon Moxley, already having a rough night, got ambushed backstage by Cope (you know who) and Switchblade Jay White. Not only did Mox get chair-shotted into oblivion, but Cope straight-up stole his AEW World Championship after shoving Marina Shafir into a closet. Yes, you read that right.
What’s Next?
The Death Riders are still champs, but with Garcia, Menard, and Parker making their presence known, it looks like they have new problems on the horizon. Meanwhile, Moxley is probably going to be furious next week—assuming he finds his title, his dignity, and a good excuse for getting outsmarted by closet-based trickery.
One thing is clear: AEW’s trios division is absolute madness, and we love it.
