However, the members we saw were <strong>Great-O-Khan<\/strong> and <strong>Jeff Cobb<\/strong>. A few weeks later, New Japan&#8217;s youngest wrestling faction reappeared, but it wasn&#8217;t the former IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions. Instead, it was the group&#8217;s leader himself, returning from a kidney infection: Will Ospreay. Alongside his students, <strong>Aussie Open<\/strong>, Will Ospreay will be facing the ROH and AAA Tag Team Champions, FTR, and <strong>Trent Beretta<\/strong> on <em>AEW Rampage<\/em>. This is unique mixture as we see two very different factions cooperate in the name of pushing away this United Empire invasion. See Will Ospreay make his in-ring debut on this week&#8217;s <em>AEW Rampage<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>A New Team: Singh &amp; Lethal<\/h3>\n<p>Jay Lethal is an industry veteran, no doubt. However, he has a new challenge. This week on <em>Rampage<\/em>, he teams, for the first time, with the imposing Satnam Singh. Can Lethal manage to pull up Singh? While big men in wrestling aren&#8217;t anything new, AEW is a brand of wrestling that tends to pride itself on the level of quality it can provide in the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Also, that inevitable match with <strong>Samoa Joe<\/strong> has to be expected at some point.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">At the Casino Battle Royale, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RealJakeHager?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@RealJakeHager<\/a> cost <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Madking1981?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@MadKing1981<\/a> a chance to be Interim <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEW?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEW<\/a> World Champion and vows to get his hands on Hager at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEWRampage?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEWRampage<\/a> TOMORROW back at the regular time of 10pm ET\/9pm CT on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tntdrama?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@tntdrama<\/a>! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JMuA2ZXR1N\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/JMuA2ZXR1N<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AEW\/status\/1535094400824614916?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 10, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>The JAS vs PNP War Continues<\/h3>\n<p>The battle between the <strong>Proud &amp; Powerful<\/strong> (+ <strong>Eddie Kingston<\/strong>) against the <strong>Jericho Appreciation Society<\/strong> rages on as we now have our first major one-on-one match between the two groups. After <strong>Jake Hager<\/strong> eliminated Kingston in the midst of the Casino Battle Royal during <em>Dynamite<\/em>, Kingston, enraged as usual, challenged the former World Heavyweight and ECW Champion to a one-on-one match for <em>Rampage,<\/em> too angry to even obey his TV cues.<\/p>\n<p>The match is scheduled just days before another one-on-one match between the two groups; an even bigger one. <strong>Ortiz<\/strong> looks to face <strong>Chris Jericho<\/strong> in a massive Hair vs Hair main event on next week&#8217;s <strong><em>Dynamite: Road Rager<\/em><\/strong> special.

Despite her loss there to <strong>Ruby Soho<\/strong>, the crowd was very much into the now former alien and former Best Friend member. As her attitude shifted into a much more serious one, it seems that fans have taken notice.<\/p>\n<p>She goes head to head with another of AEW&#8217;s slow-growing home-grown women in <strong>Red Velvet<\/strong>\u00a0who, ironically enough, also saw a major shift not too long ago on <em>Rampage<\/em>. During a match with <strong>Willow Nightingale<\/strong>, also a part of the <em>Owen Hart Cup<\/em> (a qualifying match), the AEW original was actually booed over the ROH original. In a very peculiar move, Velvet actually embraced the perceived heel heat, mid-match. Since then, she&#8217;s shifted fully into her new role and aligned herself with AEW&#8217;s first major women&#8217;s faction, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2022\/06\/04\/the-baddies-aew\/\" target=\"_self\"><strong>The Baddies<\/strong><\/a>, alongside <strong>Kiera Hogan<\/strong> and the TBS Champion, <strong>Jade Cargill<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how the crowd reacts to either woman here and see if their momentum continues.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">After <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/HOOKhausen?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#HOOKhausen<\/a>\u2019s incredible duos debut at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEWDon?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEWDon<\/a> Buy-In, we will hear from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DanhausenAD?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@danhausenad<\/a> &amp; the Cold-Hearted, Handsome Devil himself <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/730hook?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@730hook<\/a> TOMORROW on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEWRampage?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEWRampage<\/a> back at the regular time of 10\/9c on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tntdrama?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@tntdrama<\/a>! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8Odmu7hCT3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/8Odmu7hCT3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AEW\/status\/1535064203156787201?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 10, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>All That And More.<\/h3>\n<p>Everyone&#8217;s favorite odd pairing in AEW, <strong>Hook<\/strong> and <strong>Danhausen<\/strong>, takes a break from the action and this week, will instead speak.
