AEW World Title Eliminator Match:
MJF (Champion) vs Adam Cole
MJF was arguing with the referee. MJF poked the referee and the referee pushed MJF. Cole rolled up MJF, MJF pushed Cole off him which sent Cole into the referee. The referee went down. Cole grabbed the championship belt and threw it to Cole. MJF went down to make it look like Cole hit him with it. The referee almost got up to see this, but then fell back down. Cole hit MJF in the head with the belt and delivered a flying kick to the back of his neck. The referee recovered to count a near fall on MJF. The referee continued to sell his left eye. Cole grabbed MJF from behind, but MJF held on to the referee and lifted his leg to deliver a low blow to Cole. MJF put his diamond ring on his finger and was ready to deliver a punch to Cole, but the referee blocked MJF’s arm. Cole delivered a superkick on MJF. The referee took the ring off MJF’s finger. Cole delivered the Panama Sunrise and delivered the flying kick to the back of MJF’s head. The referee counted two and as he was about to hit the mat for the third time, the bell rang. They announced the time limit expired and this match is a draw. Adam Cole asked for five more minutes, but MJF left the ring.
In a pre-tape, CM Punk said the only thing certain about him is that nothing is certain. He’s coming back for the same reasons he came to AEW in the first place and that is he’s got scores to settle and there are still things left to do. He doesn’t know what he’s going to say on Collision until he has that microphone in his hand, but he has a lot of things to get off his chest.
In the ring, Sammy Guevera said he’s going to have his baby girl on one arm and the AEW Championship on the other. Darby Allin came out. He told Guevera that it sounds like the people are starting to love him again. He asked Guevera if he was going to stand on his own or live in the shadow of the JAS. Chris Jericho came out. He told Allin to stand there, shut his mouth, and mind his own business. Allin went and stood in the corner. Jericho told Guevera that for the three months he chased MJF, he never called him once for help. If he would have asked for Jericho’s help, he would be AEW Champion. Guevera said he wondered why Jericho didn’t call him because if he did, maybe he wouldn’t have lost to Adam Cole, twice. Jericho told Guevera to apologize to him. Guevera refused. Jericho told Guevera they should have a tag team match next week so he can remember who his boss is. Allin said Jericho calls himself a wizard, but when he steps in the ring, the magic is gone. Jericho said him and Guevera should beat him up two on one. Allin said he’s not alone and Sting came into the ring. Jericho held his bat up to Sting, but Sting swatted his arm down and put his bat up to Jericho and then Jericho left the ring.
Backstage, Sanada issued an open door challenge for his IWGP World Heavyweight Championship at Forbidden door.

In a pre-tape, Hiroshi Tanahashi for the AEW Championship at Forbidden Door.
Backstage, Renee Paquette told MJF it’s official that he will face Tanahashi at Forbidden Door. MJF said he declines as he doesn’t feel like giving a title shot to some rando from a rinky dink indie fed in Japan. As far as Tony Khan booking him for a matchup, it wouldn’t be the first time he no-showed Tony booked him for.
Backstage, Zach Sabre challenged Orange Cassidy to a match at Forbidden Door. Danny Garcia showed up and asked Cassidy where Shibata is because he wants the Ring of Honor Pure title. Cassidy said he’s not here tonight, but he will be next week. Cassidy issued a challenge for Shibata and himself against Sabre and Garcia next week on Dynamite.
AEW Women’s World Championship Match:
Toni Storm (Champion) (w/ Ruby Soho) vs Skye Blue
Soho handed Storm the can of spray paint. Soho got on the ring apron to distract the referee. Blue pulled out a can of spray paint of her own and sprayed it in Storm’s face. Blue delivered a superkick and went for a sunset flip, but Soho again distracted the referee. Blue superkicked Soho, but Storm caught her in the Storm Zero for a near fall. Storm then caught Blue in a leg log Boston Crab and Blue submitted. Storm and Soho were beating on Blue after the match until Willow Nightingale came in to run them off.
