The Conglomeration vs. Undisputed Kingdom

Rampage kicked off with The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, and Tomohiro Ishii) taking on Undisputed Kingdom. Early in the match, The Conglomeration was able to execute a 3-on-2 Suplex on UK. 

From there, the pace increased as the match went along as it often does when Orange Cassidy is involved. 

Undisputed Kingdom then attempted to take Ishii down with a combo Sick Kick / Proton Pack / Frog Splash.

Roderick Strong and Tomohiro Ishii then exchanged some very heavy strikes as Orange Cassidy was caught on a dive to the outside and slammed into the ring apron by the ROH Tag Team Champions. At one point, O’Reilly and Strong finally came to blows despite Roderick’s assistance that they’re still friends. A little while later, Strong nailed O’Reilly with a big knee strike before realizing who he was attacking and seemed regretful. In the end, Orange Cassidy was able to hit the Orange Punch on Matt Taven for the pinfall victory.

After the match, Don Callis emerged and confronted Orange Cassidy. Kyle Fletcher then jumped Cassidy from behind which quickly led to Mark Briscoe out next to take out Fletcher. Roderick Strong then in turn laid out Briscoe as the announce team brought up that Briscoe and Strong would be squaring off for the ROH World Championship at Death Before Dishonor next Friday.

Saraya & Harley

Backstage, Arkady Aura interviewed Saraya and Harley Cameron who said that all roads are heading to Wembley for her. 

The Outrunners vs. Chris Jericho and Big Bill

Next up was the Youngest Men Alive The Outrunners taking on The Learning Tree Chris Jericho and Big Bill. Jericho came out in jeans, never took his FTW belt off, and was texting during the match while in his corner. The Outrunners tried to mount some offense but Big Bill dominated them as Jericho continued to check his phone. At one point, Big Bill laughed maniacally as he stopped his opponent in the corner. Big Bill then chokeslammed Turbo Floyd and tagged Jericho in for the nonchalant cover for the victory. 

Before Jericho left the stage, his opponent for the FTW Championship this coming Wednesday Minoru Suzuki came out and blew past Jericho to go to the ring.

Minoru Suzuki vs. The Butcher

This was a hard-hitting slugfest with Suzuki and The Butcher with Suzuki unsurprisingly coming out on top with his FTW title match against Jericho in less than a week. 

The Conglomeration Promo

Just watch it. Ishii is now “Big Time” and you gotta be down to conglomerate and you CAN’T be a sh*thead.

Stat vs. Winnell

Kris Statlander defeated Sydni Winnell in just over a minute.

Lucha Bros. vs. Private Party

The Rampage main event saw Lucha Brothers taking on Private Party. As one might imagine, this match was a series of high-flying spots that were hard to translate into text. Instead, please check out these Twitter video highlights:

 

 

Fenix and Penta picked up the win after the Fear Factor / Stomp from the top rope for the pinfall.

Final Thoughts

The Conglomeration featuring Tomohiro Ishii was a fun match if not a little long at over seventeen minutes. Mark Briscoe continues to absolutely destroy The Conglomeration promos and tonight’s is a must-watch as always.
