Winner and AEW International Championship #1 contender: Mike Bailey
Grade: A-
This match was so much fun to watch. Every participant brought their A-game and delivered a memorable performance. Bailey becoming the number one contender was the right decision, as he was clearly the crowd favorite. That said, ideally, the stipulation would have been for the TNT Championship given Speedball’s history with Kevin Knight.
The Young Bucks vs. Jon Moxley & Will Ospreay
Nick Jackson struggles to recover following a head-on collision with Will Ospreay, bringing a temporary stoppage to the action. Ospreay tells the referee to check on Nick, but Jon Moxley tells him to focus on Matt as the fight continues.

The Bucks hesitate for a moment before unloading with a barrage of superkicks, allowing Nick Jackson to score the winning pinfall.
Winners: The Young Bucks
Grade: A-
I’m glad they didn’t go all out with the wrestling in this match and instead kept the fans invested with the Nick Jackson injury angle. For those unaware, Nick collided with Ospreay head-on early in the match, forcing him to compete for the rest of the bout while selling the injury. Ospreay stopping Moxley from using the chair on The Young Bucks ultimately proved to be the Death Riders’ undoing. I’m looking forward to seeing how this storyline develops on AEW Dynamite.

Fletcher tosses Bandido onto the second turnbuckle and follows up with a running kick to the back. Fletcher then hits Bandido with a brainbuster from the top turnbuckle to score the victory.
Winner and still AEW International Champion: Kyle Fletcher
Grade: A-
Bandido is arguably AEW’s Mr. PPV. He never misses when it comes to delivering on the biggest stages. As for Fletcher, I cannot wait to see him become AEW World Champion. He has “top star” written all over him. I expect him to drop the International Championship to Mike Bailey and move into the world title picture.
Bang Bang Gang (Jay White and Juice Robinson) vs. The Dogs (David Finlay and Clark Connors) – Double Chain tag team match

Winners: The Dogs
Grade: C+
A TV match that was added to the AEW Redemption card for reasons only Tony Khan knows. I didn’t care when The Dogs made their AEW debut, and I don’t care about their feud with the Bang Bang Gang, who seem to have their own issues with the Death Riders given how the match ended.
Backstage Segment ft. Will Ospreay & Jon Moxley
Renee Paquette is standing by with Will Ospreay, who addresses the Death Riders’ loss earlier at AEW Redemption. Ospreay brings up Nick Jackson’s history of head trauma. Jon Moxley interrupts and questions Ospreay over their loss. Ospreay says he isn’t competing to kill anybody or put them out of action. Moxley sarcastically responds to Ospreay’s concerns about Nick Jackson’s head injuries, saying, “Welcome to pro wrestling.” He reminds Ospreay of what’s at stake at All In and tells him he can’t afford to lose. Moxley then warns Ospreay that if he doesn’t pull the trigger, Moxley will do it for him.
Hikaru Shida (c) vs. Maya World – AEW TBS Championship

Winner and new AEW TBS Champion: Maya World
Grade: B-
It’s amazing to see how far Maya World has come for someone who wasn’t even on the AEW roster seven months ago. She’s been nothing but consistent and professional in her dealings with the promotion, and it’s paying off. Also, happy birthday to the new AEW TBS Champion!
The Demand Wants a Shot at the AEW World Trios Championship

Ricochet mocks The Conglomeration for finally taking the Trios Championships out of their backpacks and putting them to use, but says they only succeeded because they got lucky. He then demands a Trios Championship opportunity this Wednesday on AEW Dynamite.
Kaun warns The Conglomeration that if they don’t follow their demands, there will be consequences.
“YOU GET PUT DOWN!” Toa Liona shouts.
Cope & Cage (c) vs. PAC & Claudio Castagnoli – AEW World Tag Team Championship
Castagnoli and PAC blindside Cope with an attack inside the ring. The Death Riders then intercept Cage on the entrance ramp and subdue him before the opening bell.
Castagnoli goes for the Neutralizer, but Cope overpowers him. Castagnoli lands on his feet, and the two men take each other out with simultaneous running clotheslines.

Nick Jackson shakes hands with Cope, but Cage refuses to shake hands with Matt. The Bucks leave the ring, allowing the champions to celebrate their victory as we move on to the next match of the night.
Grade: B+
Solid match. There was no way Cope and Cage were dropping the AEW World Tag Team Championship in Canada. As for the post-match angle, they probably should have waited until AEW Dynamite to announce the Bucks match for All In Wembley. Still, this is going to be billed as a clash between two teams that defined tag team wrestling for their respective generations, and I’m looking forward to it.
Chris Jericho vs. Tommaso Ciampa – No Holds Barred
Ciampa getting Beach Break flashbacks!
The Psycho Killer is going to have blurry vision after the fire extinguisher spot.
Ciampa puts Jericho through a table with the Fairytale ending.
We have a hockey stick at AEW Redemption.

Jericho traps Ciampa inside a trash can and obliterates him with a hockey stick. The Painmaker then comforts Youppi as the crowd pops big time for the spot.

Ciampa grabs a power drill from under the ring and attempts to drill into Jericho’s skull. The Painmaker fights back and sprays him with mist before connecting with a Judas Effect for a near fall.
Jericho puts on the thumbtack elbow pad and connects with a second Judas Effect on Ciampa for another near fall.
The Painmaker forces Ciampa to submit after using the power drill on his skull.
Winner: Chris Jericho
Grade: C-
I never understood the appeal of Jericho’s Painmaker gimmick. It feels like an excuse for him to compete in death matches, which, once again, I am not a fan of. Ciampa kicking out of the first Judas Effect alone should have turned the tide of the match, but they had to add that unnecessary power drill spot. This match gets a massive downvote from me and is currently my pick for the weakest match of the night.
Mick Foley Barks for Divine Dominion
Mick Foley is backstage with Divine Dominion. Lena Kross cuts him off and asks if he has ever seen two women more dominant than them.
Foley mentions the Crush Gals and Medusa, but Megan Bayne asks if he has ever seen two women more violent than Divine Dominion.
“I have not,” Foley admits.
Lena then asks if Foley has ever seen two women more “genetically, aesthetically, and athletically superior” than them. Foley struggles to answer and says he needs a moment.
Megan questions why there is nobody left for Divine Dominion to face despite being undefeated. Foley says there are still two women they haven’t faced or defeated: The Brawling Birds.
Lena questions whether Foley really believes The Brawling Birds stand a chance. Foley says “maybe.”
The AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions then tell Foley to bow down. Foley agrees, barking as he bows before telling the commentary team to take it away because the situation is going nowhere for him.
My reaction: Tell me I did not just see that?!!!
Mark Davis (c) vs. Andrade El Idolo – AEW National Championship
Andrade clocks Davis with a spinning back elbow before following it up with The DM for the win.
Winner and new AEW National Champion: Andrade El Idolo
Grade: B-
Another TV match that found its way onto the AEW Redemption card because Tony Khan didn’t want to upset Andrade by leaving him off the PPV. It’s funny how Andrade went from actively campaigning for a World Championship opportunity to competing for and winning a midcard title. It appears MJF’s push to drop the AEW World Championship to Kenny Omega on a regular episode of Dynamite really changed AEW’s plans for Redemption.
Mike Bailey Calls His AEW International Title Shot
Mike Bailey congratulates Andrade on his victory over Mark Davis and taking a championship away from the Don Callis Family.
Bailey says this is the best night of his life, explaining that he has been coming to the arena since he was a child. He says winning the contract in front of his family, friends, and hometown fans allowed him to live a dream.
Bailey then officially calls his shot for AEW Grand Slam in Arena México on Wednesday, August 5, where he will challenge Kyle Fletcher for the International Championship.
Bailey says he and Fletcher are currently tied 1-1. He reminds Fletcher that he defeated him clean during the Continental Classic, while Fletcher needed help from the Don Callis Family to even the score.
“Third time’s a charm,” Bailey says, adding that after tonight, he is feeling lucky.
Thekla (c) vs. Willow Nightingale – AEW Women’s World Championship
Thekla evades a moonsault and attempts a spear, but Willow counters into a gutwrench powerbomb. Willow goes for the pin, but Skye Blue puts Thekla’s foot on the ropes to force a near fall.
Willow goes after Skye Blue and plants her with a gutwrench powerbomb on the outside. Back in the ring, Thekla hits a spear on Willow and sets up for a stomp, but Willow counters into a backslide pin for the win.
Winner and new AEW Women’s World Champion: Willow Nightingale
Grade: B+
I was rooting for Thekla, but Willow Nightingale is the right opponent for Mercedes Moné at All In Wembley because of their storied history. Shoutout to Willow for making AEW history as the first Women’s Grand Slam Champion.
As for Thekla, she deserves plenty of praise for carrying the women’s division on her back throughout her title reign.
Kenny Omega (c) vs. Kevin Knight – AEW World Championship
Kevin Knight doesn’t wait for the opening bell, attacking Kenny Omega from behind before taunting him with the AEW World Championship in the main event of AEW Redemption.
The Jet loses his balance while evading Omega’s offense but quickly regains control, using the commentary table as leverage to hit a jumping clothesline on the AEW World Champion.
Kevin Knight absolutely doesn’t want to hear the “Speedball’s better!” chants from the Montreal crowd.
Omega hits Knight with a Snap Dragon Suplex on the apron before delivering another one onto the announce desk.
V-TRIGGER!
Omega stops Knight’s springboard clothesline with a mid-air dropkick on the outside.
Knight lands awkwardly on his shoulder following a powerbomb by Omega, who proceeds to down The Jet with another powerbomb before following up with a V-Trigger.

Winner and still AEW World Champion: Kenny Omega
The Death Riders attack Kenny Omega after the match. The Young Bucks attempt to make the save, but they are quickly taken out by Jon Moxley and the rest of his faction. Claudio Castagnoli places a chair around Omega’s head as the Death Riders surround the AEW World Champion.
Will Ospreay arrives and stands between Omega and his faction. He tells the Death Riders to leave the ring. Wheeler Yuta tries to comfort Ospreay with a hug, but as Castagnoli prepares to deliver the final blow, Ospreay shoves him away. Ospreay removes the chair from Omega’s neck and swings it at the Death Riders, forcing them to retreat.
Moxley remains in the ring and tells Ospreay to strike him. Ospreay hesitates, but Moxley then brings out a paper bag and tells him to choke Omega with it, just like the Death Riders did to Bryan Danielson years ago. Ospreay is visibly haunted by the memory as Moxley hands him the bag.
After thinking it over, Ospreay tears the paper bag apart and strikes Moxley instead. The rest of the Death Riders try to attack, but Ospreay fights them off before taking out PAC with a Hidden Blade.
Ospreay then tosses the Death Riders patch away, signaling the end of his alliance with them. Omega recovers and notices the torn paper bag. He questions Ospreay, who hands him the AEW World Championship. The two men shake hands and celebrate with the crowd on the turnbuckle.
However, Omega suddenly grabs Ospreay and hits him with the One Winged Angel. Omega trash talks Ospreay, believing he was actually trying to take him out with the paper bag. The Young Bucks return to the ring and attempt to explain the situation, but Omega points his World Championship at Ospreay before The Elite perform their signature pose to close out AEW Redemption.
Grade: A-
Great showing from Kevin Knight in the main event. They call him The Jet for a reason. The post-match angle involving Omega, the Death Riders, and Ospreay was entertaining as well.
I was expecting Ospreay to turn against Omega after fracturing his alliance with Moxley, but AEW pulled a swerve by having Omega drop Ospreay with a One Winged Angel. It appears to be a case of miscommunication, but it makes the build toward All In Wembley even more interesting.
I’m looking forward to seeing how the AEW World Championship picture develops on Dynamite this Wednesday.
Overall Grade: B-
AEW Redemption was solid from top to bottom, with some underwhelming moments sprinkled in between.
The opening contest on the main show was arguably the most entertaining match of the entire PPV. Komander running across the ropes and performing his signature move was the highlight for me. I also enjoyed the tag team match between The Young Bucks and Moxley-Ospreay. Nick Jackson carried the match with his selling, while the alliance between Ospreay and Moxley started showing signs of falling apart.
Bandido vs. Kyle Fletcher was incredible. Every match featuring Bandido feels like a five-star banger. Fletcher, meanwhile, continues to prove he has future World Champion written all over him.
I thought the double chain tag team match was bad until I saw Jericho vs. Ciampa. Speaking of bad, who came up with the idea of having Foley act like a dog for Divine Dominion? That was incredibly cringe-worthy.
Moving on to better things, The Young Bucks vs. Cope and Cage is now official for All In. It’s a big match that needs an even bigger build. Congratulations to Maya World and Willow Nightingale on winning the TBS and Women’s World Championships, respectively, at AEW Redemption.
Speaking of title wins, Andrade is finally a singles champion in AEW. It’ll be interesting to see how far he goes with the National Championship.
Last but not least, the AEW Redemption main event delivered, but the real highlight was the post-match shenanigans. Ospreay never betrayed Omega, but the AEW World Champion seemingly fractured his friendship with the challenger.
The road to All In is starting to take shape in a major way. August is going to be an exciting month for All Elite Wrestling.
That’s it for tonight. Thank you for making it this far, and I’ll be back with AEW Dynamite coverage on Wednesday.
