Continental Classic 2024 Blue League Match
Kazuchika Okada vs. Mark Briscoe

This is the first one-on-one meeting between Briscoe and Okada, but they have teamed and faced off in tag matches against each other in the past. Briscoe knocked Okada to the floor, the hit a driving dropkick through the middle ropes. Briscoe pounded Okada on the floor until Okada tripped Briscoe headfirst into a steel chair. There was a lot of brawling on the floor for a tournament that is supposed to be mostly clean. Finally, they got back into the ring where Okada maintained control. 

Back in the ring, Okada dropped Briscoe with a DDT. Briscoe was bleeding from his forehead. Briscoe tried to come back with punches. Okada shrugged it off and returned fire with forearms and a headbutt that stunned both men. 

After a split-screen break, Okada caught Briscoe with a boot. Briscoe blocked a superplex attempt and battered Okada with redneck kung fu! Briscoe hit a flying forearm and followed up with an exploder suplex. Briscoe ran into a boot, but came back with a clothesline and a fisherman’s brainbuster for two. 

Okada came back with an inverted neckbreaker, then dropped an elbow off the top rope. Okada gives the Rainmaker Salute 2.0, which allowed Briscoe to hit a rolling death valley driver and the Froggie Bow! Briscoe got a great near fall. Briscoe went for the Jay Driller, but Okada escaped and exchanged cradles with Briscoe until Okada stuffed Briscoe with a tombstone piledriver. 

Briscoe ran into the Okada dropkick. Okada went for the Rainmaker, Briscoe countered with another Jay Driller attempt, but Okada escaped again. Briscoe tried a third time for the Jay Driller, and this time Okada escaped and hit the Rainmaker to get the pin.

Awesome match. Show this to people who think AEW is nothing but flips and dives.

In-Ring: Chris Jericho, Matt Cardona, Bryan Keith

Chris Jericho entered the ring to talk trash about Matt Cardona, his challenger for Final Battle at Hammerstein Ballroom on Friday, December 20th. Jericho has a fantastic bejeweled cowboy hat with a “9” to celebrate his 9th World Title reign. Cardona came out to respond and promised to win the ROH title in his backyard. Jericho called Cardona “Zach,” slaps were exchanged and Bryan Keith jumped Cardona to make it a 2-on-1. Jericho whipped Cardona with the ROH title belt, and Keith nailed Cardona with his belt buckle.

Winner: The Vendetta via Submission.

Continental Classic 2024 Gold League Match
Ricochet vs. Komander

Abrahantes came out with Komander but went to the back when the match started. So, Komander is the “first alternate” and will only have four matches to everyone else’s five. So, lots of flippy stuff to start.  

After a pretty long break, Ricochet has control of Komander with a surfboard. Komander generated some offense off the ropes and sent Ricochet to the floor with a head scissors. Komander followed Ricochet out with a springboard moonsault. Back in the ring, Komander went for a tornado DDT, but Ricochet countered with a Northern Lights suplex into a brainbuster. Ricochet hit a standing shooting star press for a near fall. 

Komander countered a superplex attempt, then hit a springboard hurricanrana for a near fall. The crowd was really loud and really into this match. Ricochet went for a suplex, but Komander escaped. Ricochet and Komander exchanged strikes, which ended with Komander catching Ricochet with a back heel kick. Komander hit a 450 splash for a near fall. 

Komander went to the top again for the rope walk shooting star press, but Ricochet escaped. Ricochet hit Komander with a brainbuster on the apron. Ricochet hit a springboard 450 for two. Ricochet hit an axe kick, then a running death valley driver. Ricochet hit the “Spirit Gun” (his not so Hidden Blade) and got the pinfall to pick up his first 3 points in the tournament.

Winner: Ricochet via Pinfall.

The crowd was crazy hot for this match, especially considering how late it had to be into the taping.
