Welcome to Bleacher Report’s live coverage and recap of AEW Rampage on December 1.

2023 is coming to a close and with it will come the new Worlds End pay-per-view on December 30. Between now and then, we can expect AEW to do a lot to build up the card.

This week’s show featured well over 20 active wrestlers competing in tag, trios and eight-man matches.

The biggest bout on the card was Best Friends, Hook and Danhausen teaming up to take on The Dark Order, Daddy Magic and Cool Hand Ang.

Let’s take a look at everything that happened on Friday’s show.

Best Friends and Hookhausen vs. Dark Order, Daddy Magic and Cool Hand Ang

The Dark Order was already in the ring when the show began, but Hook, Danhausen and Best Friends got televised entrances.

Evil Uno and Danhausen started things off. Uno had the upper hand at first due to his significant power advantage, but Hook tagging in changed the pace.

Hookhausen and Best Friends teaming together makes sense due to the history between some of the characters, but the other team seemed very random. The Dark Order working with Matt Menadrd and Angelo Parker makes almost no sense.

As Hook was clearing the ring, Wheeler Yuta came out on the stage, paving the way for Menard to take advantage of the distraction. Yuta joined the commentary team before the break.

This was the typical eight-man tag match. Everyone spent a little time in the ring, but Hook was clearly the focus on the babyface side. The crowd popped for a few fun spots and moments, too.

Danhausen scored the pin for his team, which was nice to see after he spent so much time on the shelf.

Result: Best Friends and Hookhausen won

Grade: C+

Notable Moments and Observations

• It’s usually a bad sign for one side when they don’t have a televised entrance but their opponent does. 
• There was a weird moment with Daddy Magic when he went to attack Hook from behind but held back for a couple of seconds for reasons that are unclear. He might have been waiting for Hook to regain his balance. 
• Hook’s T-bone suplex is about as good as it gets. He gets a full rotation with it every time. 
• Danhausen taunting Jake Hager with his old hat was hilarious.
