All-Atlantic Championship Match: Orange Cassidy (champion) vs Big Bill (with Stokely Hathaway)
Danhausen came down to ringside during the picture-in-picture to counteract Hathaway. Bill went to chokeslam Danhausen, but Stokely stopped him and hit Danhausen with his cast. Cassidy hit Bill with the Stundog Millionaire and a DDT. He followed it up with 2 Orange Punches and then an Orange Punch from the top rope, and pinned him. Winner: Orange Cassidy
They showed footage from last week after Jon Moxley’s bloody win over Evil Uno. He said it tastes like life. He lives his life to the fullest. He is a sick man and he does this because he likes it. He said he beat Page and sent him to the hospital and didn’t get credit for it because they said it was an accident. When Page beat him, Moxley was injured and came back from a bad concussion and Page got praised for it. Moxley said Page is a great wrestler and a great man, but he is not the same animal as him. There is only room for one animal like him in AEW and he will die to protect what’s his and he will see him in a Texas Death Match at Revolution.
The Elite were on their way to the ring when the lights went out. The lights came back on and The House of Black were standing behind them. The lights went out a second time. When the nights came back on, The Elite were laid out and The House of Black were holding the Trios Titles.
Face of the Revolution Ladder match: Action Andretti vs AR Fox vs Komander vs Konsuke Takeshita vs Ortiz vs Powerhouse Hobbs vs Sammy Guevera vs Eddie Kingston
Samoa Joe came out to do commentary. Eddie Kingston and Ortiz immediately fought their way to the back. Daniel Garcia interfered in the match when he attacked Andretti. Guevera climbed to the top of the ladder and crashed onto Andretti who was on another ladder. Garcia rolled Guevera in the ring and carried him up the ladder, but Takeshita tipped their ladder over. Takeshita started to climb the ladder, but Hobbs pushed the ladder, sending Takeshita flying off it which also caused the ladder to bend. Three referees held the ladder down while Hobbs climbed to the top to win the match. Winner: Powerhouse Hobbs.
After the match, Hobbs made his way up the ramp, but Joe came out from behind the commentary desk. Wardlow came out being restrained by security while Joe made his exit. Wardlow powerbombed some of the security guards while Hobbs stood by and laughed.
Backstage, Rene Paquette announced Trent and Chuck have not been cleared to compete in the Casino Battle Royale. Danhausen said he and Orange Cassidy are best friends and can be in the Battle Royale.
Chris Jericho vs Peter Avalon:
Avalon hit a swinging DDT on Jericho. Jericho hit the Codebreaker for the pin. Winner: Chris Jericho
After the match, Jericho started hitting Avalon with his bat until Ricky Starks came in to make the save. Jericho said he will beat him at Revolution and just because the Jericho Appreciation is not allowed at Revolution on Sunday does not mean they are not here tonight. Daniel Garcia, Jake Hager, and Jericho beat up Starks. Jericho hit the Judas Effect on Starks to end the segment.
Hangman Page said he is going to be the most violent, blood thirsty son of a bitch he’s ever seen because he knows that’s who he has to be to win the match as that’s the last glimmer of hope that he has.
In the ring, Renee Paquette interviewed Christian Cage. He said he was done with Jack Perry until he was sitting at home hearing him say that in 2023, he was going to win a singles championship. Cage said over his dead body because Cage is going to win a singles championship in 2023. Cage said his problem with Perry is that everybody in his generation treats his business like a video game. Cage said he on the other hand treats his business like an ATM machine and he is not done milking it dry. He challenged Perry, not to a match, but to a fight with no rules or regulations at Revolution. The lights went dimmed and we saw a video of Jack in a graveyard digging a ditch and a tombstone with Cage’s name on it.
Backstage, Jamie Hayter said at Revolution, she is not sure what is sweeter, beating one bitch or two. Britt Baker said Saraya will never be the champion.
FTW Championship: Hook (champion) vs Matt Hardy (with Ethan Page, Isiah Kassidy, & Stokely Hathaway)
Page hit Hook with Hathaway’s cast, but Hardy only got a two count. Hardy tried the Twist of Fate, but Hook reversed it into the choke for the submission win. Winner: Hook
Malakai Black said The House of Black are going to leave the belts here because The Elite have already lost.
Toni Storm (with Saraya) vs Riho
Jamie Hayter and Britt Baker made their way to the ring. Storm had Riho in the Cloverleaf. Baker got on the ring apron. Storm released the hold and took a swing at Baker and missed and from behind, rolled Riho rolled up Storm for the pinfall. Winner: Riho
After the match, Storm and Baker brawled outside the ring while Saraya and Hayter brawled inside. Ruby Soho entered the ring and punched Saraya. She turned around and also hit Hayter. Saraya, Soho, and Hayter brawled with each other with several referee trying to break it up.
Dustin Rhodes and Keith Lee were backstage. Dustin said the Mogul Affiliates are going to find out on Friday that they don’t play games because they are Naturally Limitless.
Casino Tag Team Battle Royale: Dark Order’s John Silver & Alex Reynolds, Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta, Rush & Preston Vance, The Lucha Brothers, The United Empire, Top Flight, Mike Bennett & Matt Taven, Danhausen & Orange Cassidy, The Butcher & The Blade
It came down to The Butcher & The Blade and Danhausen & Orange Cassidy. Cassidy gave The Butch & The Blade a Franksteiner at the same time. The Blade gave Cassidy a stunner and The Butcher gave him a clothesline. They tried to throw Cassidy over the top rope, but Cassidy was able to hang on outside the ring apron. As The Butcher and The Blade were laying the boots to him, Danhausen snuck up from behind and dumped The Butcher & The Blade over the top rope. Winners: Orange Cassidy & Danhausen
After the match, Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal jumped Cassidy & Danhausen. Jarrett gave The Stroke on Cassidy while The Gunns looked on. The Acclaimed and Daddy Ass ran to the ring to clear the ring.
Inside the ring, Bryan Danielson started to speak when MJF appeared at the top of the ramp. MJF started to speak, but Danielson told him to shut up. For weeks he’s been hearing him say he hates him because of what Danielson has the respect of the fans, that some people think he’s the best in the world, and that he has a wonderful wife and kids. MJF thinks he deserves these things, but he has done nothing to earn those things and nothing to fight for them. He’s taken every shortcut to become AEW Champion. He doesn’t deserve the title. The only thing he deserves is his fiance leaving him. Danielson said he has fought his whole life and he’s willing to fight to become AEW Champion this Sunday at Revolution.
