00:00Casino Gauntlet at All-In-Texas, the award from Thessaloniki, Megan Bain!
00:11Megan Bain, perhaps the odds-on favorite to capture that number two spot with Taz in a four-way match.
00:17As we mentioned, Chris Statlander, the number one entrant in the Women's Casino Gauntlet match this Saturday.
00:21But in a four-way match, Megan Bain could not even play a factor in the finish of this match.
00:28Correct. This is going to be a hard-hitting bout between these women.
00:33I really feel that there's a lot at stake here with this spot, this opportunity at Casino Gauntlet for this Saturday.
00:45Ex-president of Austria, the Toxic Spider, Tickler!
00:52I don't think Tickler, she obviously does not have the sides of Megan Bain, but I think she may be the most dangerous person in this.
01:01Yeah, Toni, she has been undefeated, competing on collision, making her dynamite debut here tonight.
01:06The import from Austria, who really cut her teeth competing in Stardom in Japan until she was fired from Stardom for attacking the president of the promotion.
01:18She is that volatile, that unpredictable, and she brings that unpredictability, not only here to this four-way match, but to AEW.
01:28I've almost attacked seven promoters in my day. Not bad. Several.
01:33From Indian West Africa, Queen Aminata!
01:40And what a rivalry we have seen develop between Queen Aminata and Tickler.
01:45These two have literally beat each other up the last few weeks.
01:49Yeah, loads of them staying. Yeah, that Tickler, she comes out with a sort of intensity.
01:54You know, sometimes you gotta try and hone that in, but everybody's different.
01:57Everybody has their own way to come out here and feel the moment to build that adrenaline up.
02:02Stop letting them watch it on here.
02:04Be accompanied by energy, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Ty Mello!
02:20Well, Ty Mello recently returning to the ring after a two-plus year layoff.
02:25Now with a massive opportunity to capture that number two spot in the women's casino gauntlet match, just like the men's match.
02:32It can end at any time. First pinfall or submission does not matter how many or how few people are in the ring after the bell rings.
02:44These are difficult matches because you gotta really watch your back. There's bodies all over the place.
02:51A three-way match is a difficult four ways or even harder.
02:55And Tony, are you surprised after we've seen Tekla and Megan Bain find themselves on the same team?
02:59That first shot was fired by Bain onto Tekla.
03:02No, not surprised at all. I think Megan Bain realizes how dangerous Tekla is.
03:07Oh, but Bain now wiping out Ty Mello and Queen Almanada in one fell swoop there.
03:14Bain charging in low bridge. Great move.
03:20By Ty Mello. Another thing on the outside, you gotta be careful because Penelope Ford is out there.
03:26Right. You know, she's best buzz, obviously, you know, with Megan Bain, so you gotta be careful with Penelope.
03:32She's unpredictable on the outside. But likewise, Anna Jay in the corner of Ty Mello.
03:37As Tekla, the Toxic Spider, takes flight here. The big crossbody, and now the Queen is up.
03:44Yeah, Amanada finding her perch on the top rope. Queen Amanada!
03:50Yikes.
03:51Throwing her body into the pile and coming out on top.
03:59You see it right here, just taking a big chance and wiping them all out.
04:04Yeah, big time risk for Queen Amanada that paid off.
04:08There she goes to, once again, the rivalry that's developed.
04:11Amanada on Tekla. Tekla into the barricade as this match continues.
04:17Who will grab the number two spot in the women's casino gauntlet match?
04:21She wants violence? I'm giving it to her.
04:23Inside!
04:25Let go!
04:27Let go!
04:29Let go!
04:30Shot for shot here with Bain and Mello.
04:34Listen to Ty Mello. She's getting kind of emotional out there, screaming at her opponent.
04:40Yeah, she's an emotional competitor, is Ty Mello for sure.
04:44Somebody that wears her heart on her sleeve as Bain launching Ty Mello into the barricade.
04:52As Tekla and Queen Amanada, opposite side of the ring, they've paired off.
04:59This woman, the self-styled Megasys, Megan Bain, as Tekla driving her knee into the face of Amanada.
05:06The Megasys having her way with Ty Mello.
05:09And Anna Jay, where she's had her issues.
05:12Oh!
05:13Anna Jay's had her issues, not only with Megan Bain, but specifically with Penelope Ford.
05:18What shots right there.
05:21But right now, Ty Mello unloading on Megan Bain and Queen Amanada doing the smart thing.
05:26Getting out of the ring, looking for it.
05:28Boom!
05:29The pitfall two!
05:30And, wow, Tekla able to kick out. It was off the screen, but...
05:33Taz, the match could have ended there. Queen Amanada could have earned that number two spot.
05:37Absolutely. You gotta be careful when you get too emotional and fighting on the outside.
05:41And there's competitors in the ring in a four-way match.
05:44Sudden Death City here. That's what...
05:46Oh!
05:47Man!
05:48Creshed and burned those Bains.
05:49And now Queen Amanada using those long legs to punish Tekla.
05:54Tekla's extremely flexible, but everybody has their limits.
05:58The counter there.
05:59Nice counter into that cover.
06:02There's now Amanada grabbing the front face lock.
06:05Snap suplex. Takes the toxic spider over the top.
06:08She engaged her hips really well there by...
06:11Stepping fast towards your opponent.
06:14It's one of the keys to a...
06:16Open.
06:17To a, uh...
06:18Snap suplex. This is tough to analyze.
06:20First she wears orange and black, Taz. Now she's stealing your moves.
06:23Not that move, but I hear you.
06:24But she told me on Saturday she calls that...
06:27Chocolate kisses.
06:30And she wanted me to call it that, so...
06:32I'm gonna hand that off to you, play-by-play guy.
06:34No, I think you got...
06:35You got that well in hand.
06:36Snap. Snap mare.
06:37And a kick to the spine by Tekla.
06:39And...
06:40Tekla...
06:41Oh, no.
06:42All right.
06:43Name that one, buddy.
06:45Name that one, buddy.
06:48That's probably Spider-S Jones.
06:50I mean, that's right.
06:51She's a spider.
06:54The four-way match.
06:56Cover here by Tekla.
06:57Very nearly capturing the number two spot in the women's casino gauntlet match.
07:01Coming up this Saturday live at All In Texas.
07:04The winner of that match will become the number one contender for the AEW Women's World Championship.
07:09Ty Mello mistimed it as...
07:12Now looking for the cover, but Queen Aminata there to break things up.
07:16Yeah, she went for that quick cover.
07:18Not able to get it, but now...
07:20The Queen has a hand...
07:21Oh, she had her hands on Mello.
07:23Watch out!
07:24Ty Mello is so focused on Queen Aminata, she did not spot Megan Bain coming in on the periphery.
07:30But Bain now going to work.
07:32The largest competitor in this match.
07:34Having her way with Aminata and Ty.
07:37Gotta be careful here though.
07:40Oh no, she made it work.
07:42Bain, voice up. Queen Aminata.
07:47Center of the ring.
07:49Lays her out.
07:51Center of the logo too.
07:52And no!
07:53Oh!
07:54Tekla kicked to the spine.
07:56And great opportunity here to get this number two spot in the casino gauntlet.
08:00That's gonna happen this Saturday at All In right here in Texas.
08:05Chris Statlander already has captured the number one spot.
08:08Tekla looking for the DDT, but Bain widens her base.
08:12Great strength by Bain there.
08:14Oh boy, that was impressive.
08:15And a vertical suplex as Bain the Falcon Arrow.
08:19She's done the deal, but no!
08:21Tekla kicking out.
08:23And now look at Ty Mello.
08:25Her emotions just bubbling over Tony.
08:27Hammering.
08:28Hammering Bain with those elbows.
08:29She's relentless.
08:30She has made it a point to attack Megan Bain.
08:33I just saw Chris Statlander watching on here.
08:36Wants to see who is gonna capture that number two spot.
08:40Now Megan Bain getting ping-ponged in between Ty Mello and Queen Aminata.
08:45But Bain going for a two-for-one.
08:49Instead it was two-on-one.
08:51Good job here by the Queen.
08:54And Aminata the roll-up.
08:56Tekla coming in to break things up.
08:59Trying to prevent her adversary from winning.
09:02But a high boost by Ty Mello.
09:04Bain back into the fray.
09:06Yeah, when you see one athlete break up a ping cover,
09:10it's not that they're trying to help them.
09:11They're trying to save themselves.
09:12It's every woman for themselves here.
09:14Yeah, and they are throwing some live shot here.
09:16This is a hard-hitting four-way match, guys.
09:18No doubt.
09:19Tekla looking for the lung-blower Bain.
09:21Catching her in mid-air.
09:22Changing her grip.
09:23And now Bain.
09:24Too strong.
09:25Looking for Fates to set.
09:27But, oh wait, maybe not.
09:28Oh, my God.
09:31Set over the top.
09:33To the floor.
09:34It's a great move.
09:35I get it.
09:36But she needs to pin someone to move on here.
09:38Spiders can fly.
09:39All right.
09:40There you go.
09:41And thinking back to the first ever women's casino gauntlet match
09:46earlier this year, Tony.
09:47It was Chris Statlander and Megan Bain that paired off.
09:50Seemed like a rivalry.
09:52A huge rivalry in the making.
09:54Are we on the verge of seeing part two this Saturday?
09:56Well, they are two of the strongest women in the Hills Division.
09:59There's no doubt.
10:00Fans know that.
10:02Statlander looking unimpressed.
10:06You know, Statlander, as of late, Taz,
10:08she's heard the appeals of Jon Moxley.
10:11AEW World Champion saying,
10:12don't let anybody tell you who you are.
10:14You have to be your own person.
10:16Yeah.
10:17Well, I don't disagree with him on that.
10:18But if I was Statlander,
10:19I'd be careful with that, dude.
10:20That's for sure.
10:21Jawbreaker.
10:22Momentarily stuns Megan Bain.
10:23But Bain.
10:24Twice up Ty Mello.
10:26Ty.
10:27Kicks to the inside, the outside of the leg.
10:30Now, trying to chop this tree down.
10:33That's Ty Mello.
10:37Looking for that Ty.
10:38Kicks.
10:39Oh!
10:40She caught Bain.
10:41Right on the face with Bain.
10:43Wow.
10:44Well, I don't know if Bain got herself out of bounds,
10:47out of the ring,
10:48or if the momentum of the knee strike did it.
10:50But it saved her, Taz.
10:51It really did.
10:52I got it.
10:53Ty Mello.
10:54She was...
10:56She was doing a little jaw jacking,
10:58and now Tekla.
11:00Thunderous.
11:01Right elbow strike it.
11:04The spider.
11:06On the hunt as Tekla.
11:09Charging in the spear from Tekla.
11:13The cover's made.
11:14Oh, but Aminata.
11:15Shot to the back of the head.
11:17Oh, boy.
11:18Man, we are at the biggest event of the year
11:20coming up on Saturday.
11:21Here on Wednesday,
11:22four women beating the hell out of each other.
11:25Oh, wait.
11:26Tekla escapes from the grip of Aminata.
11:28Aminata swinging a miss.
11:29Tekla.
11:30Tekla.
11:31Kazadora.
11:33The roll through.
11:34Tekla's got her.
11:35One.
11:36Two.
11:37Oh.
11:38But Aminata using those legs to power out of the grip of Tekla.
