However, Biz Cliz’s major strength is numerical superiority. While the former IWGP United States Champion can clearly hold his own in the squared circle, Robinson frequently relies on the assistance of his pals. As a result, when his friends were barred from ringside during his battle with Starks, he was unable to gain victory. However, as soon as the bell sounded, White and the Gunns rushed to their partner’s rescue. Fortunately, CM Punk and FTR were not long behind, emerging to support Starks against their enemies.

Former Team Taz teammates will now battle in the following round of “The Owen,” as Starks takes against Hobbs for a spot in the finals versus Punk, Roderick Strong, or Samoa Joe. In terms of Bullet Club Gold, Robinson, and White will face Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler in an AEW World Tag Team Championship Eliminator Match on next week’s episode of “Collision” to earn a championship chance.

Ricky Starks vs Juice Robinson

Ricky Starks defeated Juice Robinson in the second Men’s Owen Hart Cup First Round match. Starks blocked Robinson’s hurricanrana off the top ropes by clinging onto the ropes, which resulted in Robinson evading Starks’ dive off the top rope and hitting a spear for a near fall. Robinson attempted to strike Starks with a The Juice Is Loose, but Starks escaped and hit a spear of his own.

Starks then attempted a Roshambo, but Robinson escaped, allowing Starks to roll him up in a Jackknife Pin for the pinfall victory and advancement to the Semi-Final Round of this year’s Men’s Owen Hart Cup event.
