Backstage:
MJF said he will defeat Mark Briscoe tonight and he will send him back to Dumpster Fire, Delaware to be nothing more than a loser, a chicken farmer, and a blue collar bitch.
Jon Moxley (w/Wheeler Yuta & Marina Shafir) vs Speedball Mike Bailey (w/Kevin Knight)
The referee got distracted by Knight and Shafir arguing outside the ring. As that was happening, Yuta grabbed Bailey’s leg. Bailey turned around and got kicked in the face and nailed with a suplex by Moxley for a two count. Darby Allin appeared and put a rag over Yuta’s face, yanked him over the guard rail and dragged him to the back. Bailey hit Moxley with several kicks and put it in an armbar. Moxley escaped and gave him the Death Rider to score the pinfall.
Winner: Jon Moxley
Moxley and Shafir found a body bag in the parking lot. Allin drove by in his vehicle blowing his horn. Shafir opened the bag to find Yuta in it with a sign on his head that said Forbidden Door.
Forbidden Door TBS Title 4-Way Qualifier: Queen Aminata vs. Skye Blue vs. Alex Windsor vs. Billie Starkz (w/Athena)
Windsor clotheslined Starkz. As Athena was getting in the ring, Toni Storm pulled her out and punched her to the ground. Windsor blocked a suplex from Starkz and rolled her up for the pinfall.
After the match, Mercedes Mone got in the ring and went face to face with Windsor. Storm got in the ring but Athena hit her with the O Face. When Windsor turned around, Mone hit her with the Mone Maker.
Winner: Alex Windsor
Earlier today:
The Young Bucks yelled at a production guy. They told him the production team disrespected them the last few weeks. They said they want pyro for their ring entrance and gave him a card to give to Justin Roberts to read for their ring introduction.
In the ring:
Kyle Fletcher said Dustin Rhodes got what he deserved for stealing my moment at All In. I’ve put him on the shelf and who knows if we will see Adam Cole again. I may have achieved my destiny by winning this championship, but this is only the beginning of my legacy.
Don Callis revealed an oil painting of himself and Fletcher that he presented to him. Fletcher said I want to be a fighting champion so my first defense of my TNT Championship will be this Saturday on Collision.
Backstage:
Adam Copeland was asked what he thought about the attack on Christian Cage last week. Copeland said I don’t know what to think. He came out there with no remorse. His apology wasn’t an apology and has learned nothing.
Next week I have a match with Stokely Hathaway. If FTR interferes, their restraining order is null and void. So you have a choice. Do you interfere and open the door to me kicking your asses or do you stand there and throw Stokely to the wolf, and trust me, I will tear him apart piece by piece.
AEW World Tag Team Title Eliminator Semifinal: The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) vs. Brodido (Brody King and Bandido)
The Young Bucks had to crawl under the banner to get to the entrance ramp. Justin Roberts made a mockery of their ring introduction.
Bandido hit the 21 Plex on Matt. Bandido went for the cover but Nick broke it up. King threw Nick out of the ring and hit him with a tope suicida. Bandido hit Matt with a suplex off the top rope for a near fall. King flipped Bandido over onto Matt and pinned him.
Winners: Brodido
Backstage:
MVP said Brodido was magnificent and I would like to congratulate them on their victory. I give best wishes to the final two teams to meet up for an opportunity to meet up with the Hurt Syndicate. Whoever we face at Forbidden Door, we will be happy to hurt them.
MJF showed up. Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin left. MJF told MVP we don’t need Shelton. We just need each other, and together, we can win the World Championship. MVP said you don’t get it. We hurt people and since you joined us, all you have been saying is I, I, I just like Bobby said. Your ego is more than anybody can stand.
MVP gave him a thumbs down. He said as my last act of kindness to you because I do love you like a little brother, we will leave you in one piece so you can pursue your big, beautiful belt. MJF said, so it’s not personal, it’s all business? MVP said that’s where you’re wrong. I hope you fail because I do love you like a little brother. I hope you fail because if you succeed, Bobby Lashley is coming for you and it won’t be business. It will be very personal.
Backstage:
FTR said they can’t be held responsible for what Stokely Hathaway does to Adam Copeland next week. Stokely said I’m not a wrestler and I can’t believe Adam is going to go through with this. I’m also injured. You’re a bully, but I’m going to beat you next week.
Swerve Strickland interview:
Shawn Strickland said he will defeat Kazuchika Okada at Forbidden Door
Backstage:
Mark Briscoe said he will defeat MJF tonight. Adam Page showed up and told Mark that if he wins tonight, he would be next in line to challenge him for the AEW Championship.
MJF vs Mark BriscoeÂ
MJF was laid out on a table outside the ring. Mark went for the Froggy Bow. MJF moved out of the way and Mark crashed through the table. As Mark tried to get back in the ring, MJF hit him with the Heat Seeker. MJF went for pin. Mark got his foot on the rope but the referee didn’t see it and made the three-count.
After the match, MJF pulled the Dynamite Diamond ring out of his trunks and nailed Mark in the head with it busting him open. Adam Page came out and brawled with MJF with security trying to break them out to end the show.
Winner: MJF
