In a backstage promo, Archer\u2019s manager Dan Lambert said they have a chance to end the curse of the Rhodes family. Dustin retorted by saying he\u2019ll kick Archer\u2019s ass in his hometown, and \u201cmonsters die too.\u201d Lambert was recently involved in a feud, so to speak, with the now-departed Cody &amp; Brandi Rhodes, Dustin\u2019s brother and sister-in-law.<\/p>\n<p>Since losing to \u201cHangman\u201d Adam Page in a Texas Death match for the AEW World Championship on February 9, Archer has worked mostly on Dark Elevation. Prior to that he defeated Frankie Kazarian on the January 19 edition, after returning from injury. Dustin last lost to Sammy Guevara for the Interim TNT Championship on the January 8 Battle of the Belts show.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Let&#39;s kill some monsters <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AustinTx?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AustinTx<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oXBKgiFnph\">https:\/\/t.co\/oXBKgiFnph<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Dustin Rhodes (@dustinrhodes) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dustinrhodes\/status\/1507093427690905607?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 24, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: I\u2019m cheating here a little bit, but I echo Wade Keller\u2019s word from his hotline in that I wish Dustin was used more. I get the sense with his age he\u2019d rather appear sporadically, which is fine as well. It makes us appreciate him and wrestling is always better when you have some acts that don\u2019t appear regularly on television. This is pretty much a \u201cget back on track\u201d win for Archer.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>ReDRagon (Bobby Fish &amp; Kyle O\u2019Reilly) Dark Order\u2019s Alan Angels &amp; Preston \u201c10\u201d Vance<\/h4>\n<p>Alan Angels and Preston Vance are in tag team action tonight as they take on ReDRagon. Fish and O\u2019Reilly have mostly been on the winning side lately having teamed with Adam Cole last week on the St. Patrick\u2019s Day Slam edition to defeat AEW World Champion \u201cHangman\u201d Adam Page and the AEW Tag Team Champions Jurassic Express.<\/p>\n<p>Vance &amp; Angels took part unsuccessfully in the Casino Tag Team Battle Royal back on March 2 for the right to face the tag champs. Vance has been on AEW television proper a bit more lately, albeit on the losing end. He lost to Cole on the February 18 airing of Rampage followed by FTW Champion Ricky Starks on Dynamite. Prior to taking part in the Casino Battle Royale, Angels lost to Bryan Danielson on the December 1, 2021 edition of Dynamite when Bryan was rolling through the Dark Order enroute to his challenge of \u201cHangman\u201d Adam Page for the world title.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2273971998\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I\u2019ll call you Red Dragon but you have to call me Night Hawk. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEW?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AEW<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DarkOrder?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DarkOrder<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/X?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#X<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/HandPicked?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#HandPicked<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Rampage?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Rampage<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TNT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TNT<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iGMylH9hcb\">pic.twitter.com\/iGMylH9hcb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Pres10 (@Pres10Vance) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Pres10Vance\/status\/1507061262101979137?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 24, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: This is a straight-forward win for ReDRagon. On one hand it\u2019s unfortunate that a lot of these matches don\u2019t have any drama and the outcome isn\u2019t in doubt. On the other I\u2019m the first one to complain about WWE not having enough matches like these on TV to build up their bigger acts. I guess what I\u2019m saying is I can\u2019t be a hypocrite and complain. I\u2019m curious where things go for Vance. People are high on him.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>QT Marshall Gives Hook Certificate of Accomplishment<\/h4>\n<p>Last week during a backstage promo with protegee Aaron Solow, QT Marshall talked about his recent loss to Hook on the Buy In show for Revolution. He said his own mother called him out of concern because of the loss. No matter, because he said he was going to invite Hook out to present a Certificate of Accomplishment.<\/p>\n<p>Hook was previously a trainee of Marshall.<\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: I don\u2019t see how this doesn\u2019t lead to some sort of shenanigans, setting up Hook\u2019s next feud. He hasn\u2019t worked Nick Comorato or Anthony Ogogo, so one of them has to be up next.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Nyla Rose in Action<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s been a minute or two since we had seen former AEW Women\u2019s Champion Nyla Rose, but that changed this past Wednesday night on Dynamite. When new AEW Women\u2019s Champion Thunder Rosa was being interviewed by Tony Schiavone, Vickie Guerrero interrupted. After they went back and forth, Nyla attacked Rosa from behind.<\/p>\n<p>Nyla has been working mostly on Dark and Dark Elevation and was last on Dynamite on February 2 beating Ruby Soho. Nyla took part in the TBS Championship tournament but lost to Ruby in the semi-finals. She defeated Riho for the AEW Women\u2019s Champion in February 2020 and lost it to Hikaru Shida at the 2020 Double or Nothing.<\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: Jesse Velasquez had me on his \u201cUnplugged and Undeniable\u201d podcast this week, and we talked about potential challengers for Thunder Rosa. We concluded that Nyla Rose has come a way recently. She\u2019s a perfectly good first challenger with credibility as they build Rosa\u2019s run.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>FTW Championship: Shane \u201cSwerve\u201d Strickland vs. Ricky Starks (champ)<\/h4>\n<p>Swerve Strickland has been pulled into issues with Team Taz and tonight, he and Ricky Starks go at it for the FTW Championship. Last week, after Keith Lee defeated Max Caster, Starks and Hobbs came out to attack Keith furthering their recent issues. Swerve made the save with a chair, and he shook hands with Keith to close out the show.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2806376076\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Swerve made his debut, signing an AEW contract at Revolution, and defeated Tony Nese two weeks ago on Rampage. Ricky has been the FTW champion since defeating Brian Cage at the 2021 edition of Fyter Fest. The FTW Championship is not an officially recognized championship, but still defended as such.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/starkmanjones\/status\/1507081507067899916?s=21<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/swerveconfident\/status\/1507057903022264328?s=21<\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: It\u2019s been a while since I\u2019ve looked forward to a match on Rampage, and this one is it. I\u2019m not particular invested in the FTW Championship, but I see its purpose. I think we\u2019re headed towards something with Keith and Swerve vs. Team Taz, perhaps as soon as next week\u2019s Dynamite.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Follow Frank on Twitter @FrankPeteani.
