Mercedes Martinez Thunder Rosa

No DQ, No Excuses

Two weeks ago on AEW RampageThunder Rosa and Mercedes Martinez were having a terrific match. Unfortunately, the match would abruptly end when Mercedes chose to use a lead pipe to batter Rosa, leading to a disqualification. After the match, it was revealed that Martinez was hired by the AEW Women’s World Champion Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. to take out Thunder Rosa once and for all.

The good doctor was livid at Mercedes for not getting the job done. However, the “OG Badass” went on to state that she did get the job done by incapacitating “La Mera Mera.” Baker expects more and demands results. As long as Thunder Rosa is still standing, the job is not done. This leads to this Wednesday night on Dynamite, Rosa and Martinez will battle it once more, only this time, it’s going to be in a No Disqualification Match.

Thunder Rosa is salivating at the thought of getting her hands on Mercedes after the brutal attack on Rampage. Unfazed, Martinez says “bring it.” Sit tight, folks. It’s going to be one heck of a night this Wednesday. It’s Thunder Rosa versus Mercedes Martinez; no disqualification, no excuses. It all goes down Wednesday night only on TBS!

Inner Circle Implodes AEW Dynamite

Attendance is Mandatory – Inner Circle Implodes on AEW Dynamite

Things got extremely heated between Santana and Ortiz and “Le Champion” Chris Jericho last week on DynamiteJake Hager and TNT Champion Sammy Guevara also got roped into this civil war within The Inner Circle. Proud and Powerful would air out their grievances and state that Jericho has been holding them back since day one, and they’re no longer going to take it.

The “Demo God” would fire back and say that if it weren’t for him and The Inner Circle, Santana and Ortiz wouldn’t have main evented pay-per-views, multiple Dynamites, and be the stars they are today. To put salt into the wounds, Jericho went further and said that the former LAX duo had the chance to be AEW World Tag Team Champions, but they blew it falling to The Young Bucks last February.

The situation got even tenser when Guevara stated that he’s done with this whole fighting. Furthermore, if they don’t fix it, he’ll quit the group once more as he exited the ring. Guevara has bigger fish to fry anyway, as he will defend the TNT Championship against Darby Allin on this edition of Dynamite. Ortiz would step in and cut right to the chase, instead of talking they should just hash things out by getting in the ring next week, Santana and Ortiz versus Jericho and Hager mano-a-mano.
