AEW Rampage Results 3/20 - World Tag Title Tournament Wild Card Match, Street Fight & More

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "AEW Rampage" on March 20, 2024, coming to you live from the Coca Cola Coliseum in Toronto, Ontario, Canada!

TBS Champion and House of Black member Julia Hart will be joining forces with Skye Blue to square off with Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander. However, it won't just be any ordinary bout as they will be competing in a Street Fight. Tensions between the four women have been mounting over the past few weeks, with them having previously faced one another in the ring during the AEW Revolution Zero Hour Pre-Show in which Nightingale and Statlander emerged victorious.

Reigning Ring Of Honor World Television Champion Kyle Fletcher and Powerhouse Hobbs of The Don Callis Family will be taking on former AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy and Trent Beretta in a Wild Card Match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship Tournament. The winner of the match will go on to face The Undisputed Kingdom in the quarterfinals as the AEW World Tag Team Championship hangs in the balance. As of writing, FTR, The Infantry, Big Bill and Ricky Starks, Top Flight, Private Party, and The Young Bucks will also be competing in the quarterfinals.

Another member of The Don Callis Family will also be in action tonight, as Konosuke Takeshita goes head-to-head with Rocky Romero. Takeshita scored a win during last Friday's edition of "Rampage" when he defeated Komander while Romero hasn't competed in an AEW ring since February 9.

After coming up short against Bryan Danielson this past Saturday on "AEW Collision" Katsuyori Shibata will be returning to action tonight against an opponent who has yet to be named. This will be Shibata's first match since November 25, 2023, during which he was dethroned as Ring of Honor Pure Champion by Wheeler Yuta.

We are live! Excalibur, "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard, and Tony Schiavone greet audiences at home as Edge celebrates his TNT Championship win against Christian Cage.

We then head over to a video of The Gunns and Jay White discussing their betrayal of The Acclaimed and Billy Gunn this past Wednesday on "AEW Dynamite" as they lay at poolside, as well as mocking Darby Allin for injuring his foot ahead of his Mount Everest climb.

Back at ringside, Renee Paquette introduces The Acclaimed.

Max Caster addresses The Gunn's and White, and reveals Billy was not cleared for travel after White attacked him last week. He asks Toronto what they think about White, and they boo him. He then says White feels the same way as he didn't bother to show up, and offers him a first class ticket to anywhere in the world as long as it's not AEW. He says White would be smart to take that offer, but he's not and he proved that when he angered him and Anthony Bowens.

Bowens echoes Caster's segment, and says The Gunn's know somewhere deep down that they're not Elite enough. He says Colten and Austin Gunn weren't good enough to be in a video for the AEW World Tag Team Championship, then says White should've signed with another promotion. He reminds White that he lost both the Continental Classic and his AEW World Championship match against MJF, then tells him that he needs to stop blaming everyone but himself for his shortcomings. He says he and Caster are counting down the days until they beat him, then says he and Caster never needed White because everyone loves The Acclaimed.

Orange Cassidy and Trent Beretta then make their way down to the ring. The Don Callis Family follows.

Cassidy and Hobbs begin the action. The bell rings and Hobbs lands a spinebuster on Cassidy. He goes for a pin, but Beretta breaks the fall.

He gets him back in the ring and delivers a clothesline to him in the corner, then charges at him in the opposite corner. Cassidy moves out of the way and tags in Beretta.
