Kazuchika Okada is not only still the AEW International Champion, he’s qualified Clockwork Carnage match at AEW WrestleDream with a win over Myron Reed on Saturday “AEW Dynamite” Wednesday.
After a back-and-forth to start the match, Reed tried to slide back, but Okada slipped out of it. Reed hit an enziguri on Okada and knocked him out of the ring, but “Rainbow” quickly made his way back in, where he avoided his opponent’s boot. Okada sent Reed face first to the mat to take control of the match.
Okada went to the top rope but saw Reed get his knees up and avoid disaster. Reed then went up top for the 450 splash, but Okada rolled out of the ring. Reed took him down on the outside with a big dive. Okada got out of the way for another 450 attempt and hit a shot. Reed avoided the Rainmaker and Okada dodged a cutter and hit Reed with a piledriver, but Reed rolled out of the ring where he hit a back body drop on Okada, sending him to the floor.
Reed hit the 450 on Okada from the outside of the steps, then tried another in the ring. Okada rolled out of the way once again and hit the Rainmaker for the win.
