Without any delay, let's jump into the results.


Jon Moxley vs. Sammy Guevara opened AEW Rampage

Jon Moxley started out strong, but Sammy Guevara worked his way back into the match. They traded chops before both men were perched on the top rope. Sammy delivered a double-footed stomp to Moxley on the apron as the show headed into commercial.

The Spanish God tore Moxley's earring off his ear, leading to the former AEW world champion's ear getting bloodied. Sammy continued to dominate before Moxley delivered a suicide dive to buy some time. He delivered a lariat in the corner and battered Sammy with hard rights.

Guevara fought back and hit a cutter off the top rope for a nearfall. Moxley countered with a GTH attempt, but the former TNT Champion locked in the Walls of Jericho. Once Moxley escaped, there was another slugfest as both men traded strikes.

Moxley earned a nearfall with a Curb Stomp as Sammy rolled out of the ring. The former Inner Circle member delivered a Swanton Bomb from the top rope on the outside, putting Moxley through the ringside table. Back inside the ring, Moxley got a nearfall with a Piledriver before choking Sammy out with the Bulldog Choke.

Britt Baker vs. Skye Blue on AEW Rampage

Skye Blue was on the back foot to start the match but hit a low kick to gain control as the match headed to commercial. Skye delivered a thrust kick for a two-count, and the former AEW women's champion turned things around with a Slingblade.
