Revolution 2022: AEW Stacks Great Wrestling on Top of Great Wrestling

Leyla Hirsch pinned Kris Statlander in the Revolution 2022 Buy-In after striking her with a metal turnbuckle hook and landing a moonsault. Statlander had controlled the opening grappling and survived Hirsch's attempts to work over her arm, but Hirsch injured that limb by trapping it against the ring steps and dropkicking the metal. Statlander answered with a Blue Thunder Bomb and almost regained control outside, only to be caught by the concealed weapon. C (6.3) reflects a match whose focused arm attack gave it structure while the illegal finish prevented a stronger sporting conclusion. Red Velvet arrived to check on Statlander after the bell.

HOOK submitted QT Marshall with Redrum to win their short Revolution Buy-In singles match. The younger wrestler outwrestled his former trainer with a reverse ankle pick and a series of throws, while Marshall briefly gained control with a cheap shot. HOOK caught Marshall's attempted pump kick, turned it into a capture suplex and added a Northern Lights suplex for a near fall. Marshall could not escape the final choke, giving HOOK a clear submission victory. C- (5.8) credits an efficient character-building match with a decisive finish, without mistaking commentary from Taz for interference or suggesting a championship was involved.

House of Black defeated PAC, Penta Oscuro and Erick Redbeard when Malakai Black pinned Redbeard after using his black mist. The two teams traded sharp kicks and rapid tag-team counters, while Redbeard and Brody King collided in a heavyweight exchange. Redbeard later threatened a chokeslam, but Black blinded him with mist before Brody King followed with a piledriver. Black completed the sequence with the pin, protecting the House's winning momentum. B+ (8.0) recognizes inventive trios offense and a specific finish but also accounts for the decisive cheating; Alex Abrahantes accompanied Death Triangle without entering the scheduled match.

Eddie Kingston forced Chris Jericho to submit to the stretch plum after Jericho missed the Judas Effect and struck an exposed corner. Kingston had caught Jericho with a half-and-half suplex at the bell and targeted his neck, while Jericho responded with a Lionsault and the Walls of Jericho. Kingston reached the ropes to escape that hold, fought back with Saito suplexes and landed a spinning backfist for a near fall. After the submission, Jericho refused Kingston's offered handshake despite his earlier promise. A- (8.5) credits a physical rivalry with a decisive clean submission rather than a referee stoppage or title switch.

Jurassic Express retained the AEW World Tag Team Championship when Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus hit their Thoracic Express combination on Matt Jackson for the pin. ReDRagon and the Young Bucks had each threatened a win in the three-team match, with Kyle O'Reilly striking Jungle Boy using a championship belt and the Bucks landing a BTE Trigger. Bobby Fish and O'Reilly followed with the High-Low, only for Luchasaurus to break the cover. O'Reilly then stopped Matt Jackson's pin, creating the opening for the actual champions to rally. B+ (8.0) reflects a crowded title defense with credible near falls and an unambiguous winning team.

Wardlow won the Face of the Revolution ladder match by unhooking the brass ring, earning a future TNT Championship opportunity. Keith Lee, Powerhouse Hobbs and Wardlow produced the night's biggest collisions, including Wardlow and Hobbs breaking a ladder and driving Lee through the stage. Orange Cassidy used a ladder like a spinning propeller, and Christian Cage repeatedly tried to seize the opening, but Wardlow powerbombed him off the climb. Danhausen then distracted Ricky Starks before Wardlow drove Starks onto another ladder and secured the ring. B (7.8) credits the spectacle and a decisive climb to claim the brass ring, rather than a pinfall or an immediate TNT Championship change.

Jade Cargill retained the TBS Championship by pinning Tay Conti with Jaded after knocking the challenger from the turnbuckles. Conti had used judo throws, kicks and a piledriver to create several near falls, while Jade answered with the Eye of the Storm and a frog splash. Ringside seconds added distractions: Conti struck Mark Sterling during a dive, Jade kicked Anna Jay and Jay retaliated with a chair shot while the referee was occupied. The champion ultimately shoved Conti from the top rope and landed her decisive finisher. C- (5.5) recognizes a serviceable defense with a clear title outcome despite the repeated outside interference.

CM Punk defeated MJF in their dog-collar match after Wardlow refused to hand MJF the Dynamite Diamond Ring and instead left it for Punk. Both wrestlers bled as they struck each other with the connecting chain, and MJF sent Punk into a bed of thumbtacks with a superplex. Punk had damaged his own knee while missing a chain-assisted strike, making his comeback less certain. Wardlow's apparent hesitation turned into the final betrayal, allowing Punk to hit the Go to Sleep and strike MJF with the ring for the pin. A+ (9.6) recognizes the escalating violence and feud payoff, not a title match or a submission.

Britt Baker retained the AEW Women's World Championship by pinning Thunder Rosa after a curb stomp, with Rebel repeatedly distracting the referee. Rosa had survived a stomp onto the championship belt, a dangerous Air Raid Crash and interference from Jamie Hayter before trapping Baker in a counter submission that appeared to make the champion tap. The official did not see that concession because Rebel drew his attention outside. Rosa attacked Rebel, only to return to the ring and fall to Baker's finishing stomp. C+ (6.8) reflects a contested defense whose interference dominated the decisive exchanges; the belt stayed with Baker.

Jon Moxley pinned Bryan Danielson by rolling through a triangle choke after a sustained contest built around submission reversals. The pair traded forearms and strikes until Moxley opened a cut on his forehead, while Danielson threatened with a crossface, dragon sleeper and repeated elbows. Moxley answered with an armbar and bulldog choke, but Danielson reestablished a triangle sleeper from the mat. Rather than tapping, Moxley shifted his weight across Danielson for the three-count. A (9.1) credits a technical fight with an inventive pin finish; William Regal arrived afterward to end their brawl and order a handshake, not to influence the winning fall.

Darby Allin, Sammy Guevara and Sting defeated Andrade El Idolo, Matt Hardy and Isiah Kassidy when Allin pinned Hardy after a Coffin Drop. The Tornado Trios fight spread far outside the ring, with Sammy throwing Kassidy through tables with a Spanish Fly from the lighting rig and Sting diving from a balcony onto Andrade through another cluster of tables. Marq Quen, the Butcher and the Blade intervened to attack the winners, while Jose the Assistant was also caught in the fighting despite not being scheduled. Back in the closing exchange, Allin hit Hardy with a Scorpion Death Drop onto a chair before the Coffin Drop. B (7.8) credits the dangerous spectacle with an identifiable winning fall.

Hangman Adam Page retained the AEW World Championship by pinning Adam Cole after a final Buckshot Lariat. Cole had attacked the champion's neck and countered several attempts at Page's signature lariat, with reDRagon repeatedly intervening and briefly setting up a Panama Sunrise on the arena floor. Page survived Cole's low blow, Panama Sunrise and running knee, while the Dark Order arrived to neutralize the interference. Page's first Buckshot nearly finished the challenger, but Cole reached the ropes. Page then used his own belt to hold Cole briefly against the ropes, struck him with kicks and another knee before landing the decisive Buckshot. A- (8.6) reflects an extended championship defense with a clear winning pin, not a title change.
