AEW Brings Back TNA’s Reverse Battle Royal at Revolution?!
To make things worse, this preshow match didn’t even finish on the preshow, weak!
The "Blackjack" name felt like pure branding—no poker twists, no dramatic entries, just pure pandemonium with bodies flying everywhere, eliminations stacking up fast, and the whole thing bleeding into the main show start for extra ridiculousness.
Rules? Vibes only. The crowd popped in LA, but you could feel everyone thinking: "What did I just watch?"
Fans online are already calling it bizarre, nonsensical, and gloriously dumb.
Jungle Boy turned Scapegoat turned LA hero outlasted the madness, went final-two with Ricochet on the apron, nailed that Poison Rana to dump the champ... and just like that—new AEW National Champion.
The kid who grew up dreaming of this arena finally grabs singles gold in the most bonkers, feel-good way. Poetic payoff amid the nonsense.
So yeah: weird, not really a standard battle royal, borderline absurd... but it kind of worked. Delivered meme-worthy confusion and a killer title change.
