All Elite Wrestling Delivers Thrilling Card in Springfield

The All Elite Wrestling (AEW) crew rolled into the Great Southern Bank Arena in Springfield, Missouri last night, and boy did they bring the heat! The packed house was treated to a stacked card that featured some of the best matches we've seen all year. As your resident wrestling aficionado, I'm here to break it down for you.

No. 1 Contendership on the Line: Powerhouse Hobbs vs. Sammy Guevara

The night kicked off with a bang as Powerhouse Hobbs took on Sammy Guevara in a No Disqualification Match for the No. 1 contendership spot. These two had a bone to pick, and it showed from the opening bell. The action spilled outside, with both men using every trick in the book to gain an advantage. In the end, Hobbs' sheer power proved too much for Guevara, as he delivered a thunderous spear to secure the win (17:03). This bout set the tone for the rest of the night – high-flying action and intense competition.

FTR vs. Shane Taylor Promotions: A Tag Team Showdown

Next up, FTR (Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood) took on Lee Moriarty and Shane Taylor in a tag team match that showcased some top-notch wrestling. Both teams traded holds and moves, with the FTR duo's chemistry proving to be the difference-maker. The crowd was on their feet as FTR hit their patented "Big Boot" and "Fireman's Carry" combination to take the win (10:18). SXP may have left feeling a little sheepish, but they can hold their heads high – they gave it their all.

Thunder Rosa Dominates Lady Bird Monroe

In a singles match that flew under the radar, Thunder Rosa made quick work of Lady Bird Monroe. The "Princess of Combat" showcased her impressive arsenal, landing a series of suplexes and kicks that left Monroe reeling. In the end, it was a vicious spear that sealed the deal (2:08). If you're looking for someone to put on a show, Rosa is your gal.

Bang Bang Scissor Gang Takes Down Iron Savages and Jacked Jameson

The tag team action continued with Bang Bang Scissor Gang (Billy Gunn, Colten Gunn, and Jay White) taking on Iron Savages and Jacked Jameson in a six-man match. This one was all about the fun factor – these teams went nuts, delivering dives and moves galore. In the end, it was Billy Gunn's patented "Fameasser" that did the trick (4:47). If you're looking for some good ol' fashioned wrestling mayhem, look no further.

Malakai Black Takes Down Bryan Keith

In a singles match that flew under the radar, Malakai Black dispatched Bryan Keith in convincing fashion. The "Judas" of AEW showcased his impressive technical grappling skills, transitioning seamlessly between submission holds and strikes. In the end, it was a vicious armbar that forced Keith to tap (10:57). If you're looking for someone to take on the top contenders in AEW, Black is your man.

Serena Deeb Outwits Lady Frost

The women's division got some love with Serena Deeb taking on Lady Frost. These two had a war of attrition, with Deeb's experience and cunning proving too much for Frost (8:42). This match was all about strategy – Deeb played the perfect game of cat-and-mouse, using her grappling skills to keep Frost at bay.

Bryan Danielson vs. Jun Akiyama: A Dream Match

The main event pitted Bryan Danielson against Jun Akiyama in a singles match that had fans salivating from the get-go. These two wrestling legends traded holds and moves, with Danielson's technical prowess giving him the edge (15:59). This was a match for the ages – if you missed it, do yourself a favor and seek it out.
