AEW Revolution 2026 3/15/2026
We are in Los Angeles, CA.
Zero Hour:
Boom & Doom (Big Boom A.J. and Q. T. Marshall) vs. The Infantry (Capt. Shawn Dean and Carlie Bravo)
The heels hit the faces before the bell starts. The faces fire back. Bravo is back body dropped over the top. AJ flying lariats Dean. AJ powerslams Dean. AJ goes to dive, the ref stops him then T tope con hilos over the ref to the outside. The heels point out Wayne Brady in the front row. Dean slingshot spears QT.

Thoughts: We've seen this one a few times so you should know what to expect out of this. Wayne Brady getting involved was pretty wild as was Shane sending The Rizzler down. I got a good laugh out of The Rizzler going up to The Infantry's Christyan XO as well. The match was fine but this was all about the shenanigans.

Thoughts: It got more time than it needed and wasn't that good. Willow was selling her shoulder but Lena refused to do any work on it and that brought this down. The best part in this was when they were trading chops.
Megan Bayne comes in and beats up Willow with Lena after. Harley Cameron comes out with a pipe and the heels.
AEW National Title - Blackjack Battle Royal
Thoughts: This went past the pre-show and into the main PPV show. It was a weird battle royal as everyone started outside of the ring and at no point was everyone actually inside the ring. Luchasaurus drove a Jurassic Express bus to the arena that Jack Perry came out of. Lio Rush had a bald head here with contacts and looked pretty different. The final two in this came down to Jack Perry and Ricochet, which wasn't too shocking since they focused on them at the beginning of this. Jack then poisonrana'd Ric off the apron and won. The company really loves Jack since he's friends with the EVP's, but he continues to be pushed past his skill and drawing level. This was definitely not your usual battle royal and they did what they could to throw some big spots in, but I didn't care that much for this. It got a lot more than it really needed at around 23 minutes.
Main show:
AEW Tag Titles - FTR (Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood) (c) vs The Young Bucks (Nick Jackson and Matt Jackson)
They had a video with The Young Buck's kids talking about how great they are. The Bucks' kids and their brother's kids then came out and posed with them on the ramp. FTR wore Boston Celtics colors out. The Buck's family are in the front row again.

A Buck topes Stokeley in the wheelchair. Dax takes a Meltzer driver for 2. A Buck takes a spike piledriver. The other Buck takes a 2nd rope shatter machine and is pinned.
Thoughts: It was a longer opener that went close to around 25 minutes or so. They did a bunch of big spots, bled and kicked out of a million things. They did overdo it some but at least The Bucks didn't do all of their spots like usual. I did not think this was a good choice for the opener as it was hard to follow. It was more tolerable than other Bucks matches and it had the format but it wasn't my kind of match.
The lights go out and we see "Revenge" on the tron. Adam Copeland comes out after being away for a long time. Christian Cage comes out before FTR. He maces Cash and killswitch's Dax. Cope spears Cash. Stoke gets surrounded 2v1 then Christian hits a killswitch on him. Stoke is then thrown out. Cope and Cage then hold up the AEW Tag Titles. Cope says they will take the titles. The Bucks get in the ring but nothing happens.
Thoughts: I didn't get Cope not trying to cost FTR the tag titles since this was all about revemge.
Toni Storm vs. Marina Shafir

MS does mother's milk. Toni bites MS' chest to break it up. Toni chest headbutts her and cradles her to win.
Thoughts: It was a different kind of match. Toni biting the chest of Shafir at the end was pretty wild. I wouldn't say it was great but I think they had the right idea of MS stiffing Toni and Toni kind of needing to be sneaky to win.
Rhonda Rousey they appears in the ring. She points at Toni Storm on the ramp. Toni comes back down the ramp. They stare down and refs break it up. Shafir comes back down and nails Toni.

KT is out and Mox wins.
Thoughts: The selling was really bad here and they did way too much. KT kicked of a very high angle death rider ddt then one off the 2nd rope. Mox worked KT's legs early and that went nowhere as well. KT also got busted open big here. I can't say I liked this overall and wish they would have just stuck to the more strike focused match they started with.
Mox offers to shake hands with KT. KT teases walking away then shakes hands.
The lights go out and we get a video of scientists on the tron. Will Ospreay is in some sci-fi healing chamber and he comes out of it yelling. Mox mocks it, making some funny and appropriate faces. Wills Opreay then comes out. Will runs to the ring and pounds on Mox. The Death Riders gang up on Will. Will handspring double pele kicks them and hidden blade's DG. Will then corkscrew moonsaults them outside. Mox then runs away.
Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron are in the doctor's office. Willow is cleared. She says she's good to go out there as that what she does. She says she can't let Harley down. She says the girls will get payback. Harley says they are sick of their sh!t.

Willow backslides Lena for 2. Meg flying lariats Willow. Willow takes a double chokeslam hard and Lena pins her.
Thoughts: The heels won as expected here and it was obvious once Willow came out enjoyed. There was no real need for Willow to have 2 belts so she lost one here. Meg finally won a title. It was a rather one-sided match and nothing too special. Willow got slammed down hard on the finish.

Thoughts: The vertebreaker on the floor really should have put King down. I've never even seen that done before and it still wasn't enough. Aside from that, King was treated as the face underdog here while Swerve was kind of giving him a whooping. I think they put over the idea of what they were doing here and it was okay.
SS goes to use a cement block after but Kenny Omega comes out.

Julia Hart and Skye Blue come down. Kris whips them with the belt and spinning double lariats them. The ref comes back in and grabs the belt. Thek spears Kris. Thek curbstomps her twice and pins her.
Thoughts: It really wasn't anything special. The shenanigans portion of this wasn't that good with the ref clearly seeking Thek taking his belt (and helping her do it) yet doing nothing about it. There wasn't much of a story here besides Thek cheating to win.

Thoughts: It was an entertaining trios match. There wasn't a ton of selling or logic but they kept it moving and had some cool spots. The title change is pretty random but that's just the nature of trios titles. There's too many people involved for coherent booking and it just becomes filler. We found out Mistico is also now contracted to AEW and CMLL.
Andrade El Ídolo vs. Bandido
Don Callis is on commentary for this. Idolo waistlock takedowns him and they stand off. Band side headlocks him and takes him over. Idolo headscissors him. They flip out of moves. Idolo shoulders him over and they stand off.

Thoughts: This was basically a workrate match without much of a purpose otherwise. Idolo should be getting an ROH Title shot here as he just pinned the champ. They did a bunch of flying as expected. Idolo goofed around with the planted fans and both took off their pants. They didn't overdo it too much here. It was alright overall.

Thoughts: Having the heels lose here was really dumb. They are a new team and they lost to a makeshift team. OC did his usual screwing around and hurt the match. The first part of this was super rushed with them going 100MPH. Everyone took some nasty bumps here. The faces letting Darby be stuck in the corner for so long was a bit dumb. This match had a lot of issues and I thought that overtook some of the positive parts of it.
AEW World Title - Texas Death Match - MJF (c) vs Adam Page
Page can't challenge for the AEW Title again if he loses here. As always, these are under last man standing rules, not texas death match rules.
We got a video with MJF doing an old cowboy video for his intro. He then pees on an Adam Page grave. MJF then wears cowboy gear out.

Page grabs skewer sticks and they fight for them. The sticks are put in MJF's head. Page buckshot lariats MJF. MJF gets up before the 10 count. Page running boots MJF.

They fight on the apron. Page facekicks him there. MJF pulls Page off the 2nd rope through the barbed wire board and table. MJF hits Page with a chain. He hits chain shots on the stage. They fight near the edge. Page hugs him and they both go off the stage through a table and production equipment. This causes an explosion and some sparks.

Page beats the 10 count up and hit MJF with the AEW Title. MJF hits Page with the Dynamite Diamond Ring. MJF hangs Page over the top rope with the chain. MJF stupidly lets go of it and Page's bloody head bangs off the camera, leaving smeared blood all over it. Page is out and MJF wins.
Thoughts: It was a longer bout that went around 46 minutes. It was mostly a weapons match. They used whatever they could find with barbed wire, glass, dog collars and skewer sticks. It was an entertaining match and it was good overall, but it was a weapons focused match. Half of it probably could have been cut out without anything really missing. Page not being able to challenge for the title is going to cause problems in the future and that stip will definitely end up being ended.
Page is put on a stretcher after. MJF climbs on top of him there and poses.
Overall thoughts: It was your usual super long AEW PPV. It was 5.5 hours if you watched the pre-show. It's one thing to do this on a Saturday or in the afternoon, but doing this at 7PM on a Sunday night just sucks. The show didn't need to be this long and I think an hour could have been cut off of this easy.
FTR/The Bucks was a bit more tolerable than a usual Bucks match but they did just about everything possible in the opener here and that hurt the next match. We had the return of Christian and Copeland after. I was alright with Storm/Shafir and thought they had the right idea. Rhonda Rousey showed up. Mox/KT had selling and logic issues. Will Ospreay is back. Bayne/Kross won the AEW Women's Tag Titles in a one-sided bout. Brody/Swerve was also a bit one-sided but it was alright.
Thekla/Kris was nothing special. The trios title match was entertaining. Band/Idolo was also alright but it had a lot of different things going on that didn't exactly fit. The tornado tag match had a dumb result with the heels losing and it was a dangerous and rushed match at times. The main went 46 minutes. It was mostly a hardcore weapons based bout with them using just about everything on each other. It was good overall.
I'd give this a low 6 out of 10 and would say it's above average for AEW. I usually compare AEW PPV's to buffet's. There's a lot of food. Most of it won't be great, but if you search hard enough, you can find something you like and mostly will leave happy. Whatever you are were looking for here whether it was blood, high flying, hosses, good matches, celebs or returns, it was here in some form.
