In the third match of the Revolution PPV card, the future TNT title was on the line. There was also pressure to keep the momentum going after the hot start of the AEW show on March 6 in Orlando.
With a lineup like Keith Lee, Wardlow, Christian Cage, Powerhouse Hobbs, Ricky Starks and Orange Cassidy, there was never any reason to doubt it would happen. The Face of the Revolution Ladder Match wove comedy…
power…
…a bit of teamwork and friendly competition between members of the Taz Starks & Hobbs team and veteran Ranked Match veteran Cage.
The boss encounter we expected happened, but it ended up in a situation we weren’t in. When Powerhouse and Limitless grabbed each other’s throats on stage, Wardlaw made them both fall off the stage.
While this was happening, Christian was walking up the stairs in the ring. Starks caught up with him, but he didn’t count on Dunhausen’s curse. He survived it, but perhaps that is why Mr. Mayhem was later able to catch up with him. No symphony, but Wardlow throws Ricky from one staircase to another.
Then he got up, grabbed a brass ring and became the Face of the Revolution. And his boss even said that he could keep the belt if he beat Sammy Guevara for it!
