Cole then brags that he will win the whole tournament before introducing "Switchblade" Jay White. White shows up and says it is fitting he is here for this announcement, as the last time NJPW had such an event, he single-handedly sold out Madison Square Garden. He says it is not about NJPW or AEW, but about The Undisputed Elite and Bullet Club, "because it is still our era."

Hook beats Anthony Henry. During the match, "Smart" Mark Henry and "The Premier Athlete" Tony Nese take notes on Hook. Also, during the match, Danhuasen shows up to curse Hook, but it does not work as Hook makes Anthony Henry tap out to Redrum.

Sammy Guevara and Tay Conti are in the ring. Sammy says he feels on top of the world like he should be as a three-time TNT Champion and Tay Conti at his side, then thanks the fans for their support and says he will give his all for them forever because they deserve it. He then tells the fans who turned his back on him due to having Tay as a girlfriend to "shut up and be mad" before Dan Lambert and The Men of the Year show up and Scorpio Sky says "Screw you" to Sammy. "All Ego" Ethan Page says nobody came to hear Sammy and that he isn't getting twelve switches in the face is because of Lambert, who says youth is wasted on the young and that Sammy Guevara is the perfect example of that quote. He tells Sammy to give Scorpio Sky his rematch or else The Men of the Year will give him a pounding his girlfriend only dreams about. Sammy says he only cares about a match, not Lambert or his dead grandpa, and says he will give the match if they get their mixed tag match. Lambert tells Sammy to consider it done.
We hear from Brodie King and Buddy Matthews. Brodie says that they have been kept waiting because someone refused to draw blood, then Matthews says The House changed their narrative. Malakai Black shows up and says The House is owed a debt next week.
