Backstage, Lexi Nair interviews Jay Lethal. Lethal says he is not one to complain even with a great winning record, but he cannot see past his losses against Ricky Starks and Adam Cole despite taking them to the limit, as they had to cheat to win. He says he has seen them get opportunities and money that he does not, and says that there has to be a better way and that he has some thinking to do.

Fuego del Sol is in the ring. He says that when he stepped foot in AEW, he would have to fight for everything. He says that he has took the fight to The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews) and for a moment, the fans chanted his name. He says that the fans believed in him and his fire, heart and fight, then calls out The House of Black and says he is ready to fight. The lights gout out, then The House of Black appears in the ring one by one and decimates Fuego del Sol. As The House of Black leaves, however, they are confronted by The Dark Order. Evil Uno, Stu Grayson, John Silver and Alex Reynolds stare The House of Black down before tending to Fuego del Sol.



Backstage, Lexi Nair interviews Dan Lambert and The Men of the Year (Scorpio Sky and "All Ego" Ethan Page). Lambert says that the TNT Championship is no longer subject to the open challenge and that anyone who wants a shot at the title will have to earn it. Ethan Page says Scorpio Sky never got a shot and when he did, he took it. Scorpio Sky says that he cannot be beaten and that anyone who wants his title will have to earn it.

reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) beat The Dark Order (Alan "5" Angels and Preston "10" Vance) after pulling on 10's mask.

"The Native Beast" Nyla Rose quickly beats Madi Wrenkowski.



QT Marshall and Aaron Solo are in the ring with the the first-ever "QT Marshall Certificate of Accomplishment." Marshall introduces Hook to the ring. Marshall says that a mentor would get jealous when their protege eclipses them, but Marshall says he is not jealous. After Solo fires off a confetti gun and Marshall shows Hook the certificate, Hook breaks the frame with Solo's head. Danhausen shows up and tries to curse Hook, but Hook is unfazed and walks off.



"The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry interviews "Absolute" Ricky Starks, Powerhouse Hobbs and Swerve Strickland. Starks says he has no problem with newcomers, but he has a problem with a sense of accomplishment Swerve is and tells Swerve he is on his show and he came out on top last time. Swerve says that if there is anything the last house taught him, it is coming in and taking, and he is coming for and taking Rampage to make it his house and coming for and taking the FTW Championship.

"Absolute" Ricky Starks retains the FTW Championship against Swerve Strickland after Powerhouse Hobbs lays out Swerve on the outside. After the match, Starks' entourage, which has been at the announce table, carry a banner to the stage, then Keith Lee shows up and puts one of the three men through the banner and lays out the rest of the entourage. Swerve and Keith Lee brawl with Starks and Hobbs, and referees have to run into the ring to separate both teams to end the show.
