The first-ever episode of AEW Rampage kicked off with the Impact World Championship match between Kenny Omega and Christian Cage. This match was made this past Wednesday on AEW Dynamite.
The Young Bucks slid a chair to Omega after Omega hit a low blow to Cage while the referee was distracted. Cage reversed and hit the killswitch to win the title.
Jurassic Express went out to the ring to celebrate with Cage and the EVP of Impact Wrestling Scott D’Amore joined them.
