AEW Rampage Results 1/19 - Darby Allin Faces Jeff Hardy, Kris Statlander Takes On Queen Aminata

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "AEW Rampage" on January 19, 2024, coming to you from the North Charleston Coliseum in North Charleston, South Carolina!

Jeff Hardy will be making his return to singles competition tonight as he goes head-to-head with Darby Allin. The two men have shared the squared circle on two previous occasions, including teaming up in a Tornado Tag Team Match on the March 23, 2022 edition of "AEW Dynamite" and competing against one another in a quarterfinals match for the 2022 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament two months later in May.

As Stokely Hathaway looks to continue his quest to secure the position of being her manager, Kris Statlander will be squaring off with Queen Aminata. Statlander has picked up a couple of tag team victories on the January 5 and January 10 episodes of "Rampage" and "Dynamite" respectively.

After he and his Le Sex Gods teammate Sammy Guevara were unsuccessful in dethroning Ricky Starks and Big Bill as AEW World Tag Team Champions at Battle of the Belts 9 last week, Chris Jericho looks to regain some momentum tonight as he goes head-to-head with Matt Sydal. Sydal will surely be motivated to score the win tonight, as he has come up short in a series of singles and tag team matches of late.

Another star looks to emerge victorious following a loss as Penta El Zero Miedo collides with Anthony Henry of The Workhorsemen. Penta and Komander came up short to AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy and Trent Beretta this past Wednesday on "Dynamite".

We are live! Excalibur, Ian Riccaboni, and Don Callis greet audiences at home as Chris Jericho and Matt Sydal make their way down to the ring.

The bell rings and the two lock up. Jericho delivers a shoulder tackle, but Sydal responds with a hurricanrana and clotheslines him out of the ring. Sydal delivers a knee to him off the apron before the pair get back inside the ring and Jericho turns Sydal inside out with a clothesline. He follows it up with a back suplex and locks in the Liontamer. Sydal makes his way to the bottom rope to break the hold.

Back from the break, Sydal and Jericho exchange chops with one another. Sydal lands a series of kicks, catching him with one mid-air. The pair find themselves teetering on the ropes, and Sydal pulls down Jericho with a powerbomb. Sydal looks to fly, but Jericho catches him with a Codebreaker mid-air. He looks for a springboard moonsault, but Sydal gets his knees up. The two end up teetering on the ropes once again, and Jericho fires off right hands on Sydal. He delivers an avalanche hurricanrana and the Judas Effect for the win.

Winner: Chris Jericho

After the match, Callis flees to the back. Konosuke Takeshita blindsides Jericho on the ramp as Callis reemerges. Officials run down to separate the two, and Takeshita takes a shot at Christopher Daniels.

Back from the break, Penta El Zero Miedo and Alex Abrahantes make their way down to the ring. Anthony Henry is already waiting inside, and "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard has joined the commentary desk.

The bell rings and Penta delivers a kick to Henry's midsection. Henry responds with a backbreaker and a German suplex, but Penta gets him up on his shoulders and delivers a Death Valley Driver. Henry delivers a double stomp to Penta's midsection, then delivers a kick to his face. The pair take turns landing kicks on one another's thighs before Henry delivers a Death Valley Driver of his own and ascends to the top. He looks for a double stomp, but Penta rolls out of the way and delivers a suplex to him in the corner. He follows it up with the Fear Factor for the win.

Winner: Penta El Zero Miedo

We head over to a video of Ruby Soho and Saraya yelling at one another. Renee Paquette sees this happening and asks what's going on. Soho then grabs Harley Cameron ans asks her why when she sees her passing, and Cameron says it was Anna Jay's fault.

Back at ringside, Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway make their way down to the ring. Queen Aminata follows.

The bell rings and the two lock up. They take turns locking in submission holds on one another before Statlander delivers a shoulder tackle. Aminata delivers a kick to Statlander's spine and dumps her over the top rope and out of the ring, then delivers a crossbody through the middle rope.

Back from the break, Aminata delivers a swinging neckbreaker and follows it up with a Hip Attack in the corner. She locks in a crossface, but Statlander escapes and delivers a discus lariat. She whips her into the corner and delivers a running uppercut, then looks to land a knee on Aminata. Aminata fires back with a running knee, but Statlander delivers a scoop powerslam and plants Aminata for the win.

Winner: Kris Statlander

We then head backstage to Renee Paquette catching up with Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway. Willow Nightingale comes running in and explains that she wanted to be at ringside, but her flight was cancelled by someone. Statlander says they'll all figure everything out.

Back at ringside, Darby Allin makes his way down. Jeff Hardy follows. 

The bell rings and Hardy offers his hand to Allin. He slaps Allin before he can take it, and Allin responds with a dropkick that sends Hardy crashing out of the ring. He goes flying off the top to level him, but Hardy dumps him over the commentary desk and sends him crashing into the barricade spine first. Hardy then delivers a splash to Allin off the apron and looks to fly off the ring steps, but Allin ducks out of the way and Hardy's leg is sent crashing into the barricade. Allin sits Hardy on a chair and fires off right hands. He slides back in the ring and looks to fly to level him, but Hardy moves out of the way and Allin is sent crashing into the chair.

Back from the break, Hardy delivers a Blockbuster and sits Allin on the top rope. He climbs up to join him, but Allin rakes his back and delivers a Code Red. He goes for a pin, but Hardy kicks out. Allin ascends to the top, but Hardy knocks him down and delivers a neckbreaker to him onto the ring apron as Allin is draped off it. Hardy grabs a table from under the ring and sets it up. He lays Allin on top of it, then ascends to the top and looks to land a Swanton Bomb. Allin rolls out of the way, and Hardy is sent crashing through the table. He gets him back in the ring and looks to land a Coffin Drop, but Hardy gets his knees up. Allin then rolls Hardy up for the win.

Winner: Darby Allin

After the match, Allin looks to fist bump Hardy. Hardy opts to roll out of the ring and heads to the back, leaving Allin alone in the ring as the show goes off the air.
