Killswitch last eliminates Trent Beretta to win a 20-man battle royal and a shot at the AEW TNT Championship on Zero Hour.

Before the next match, Wheeler Yuta says Hook has been sticking his nose where it does not belong, which is no surprise given where he is from, and asks if there is any redeeming quality about Long Island, New York. He makes fun of the local hockey team, then the New York Islanders' goal horn keeps blaring as Wheeler Yuta addresses Taz before Hook shows up.

Hook retains the FTW Championship against Wheleer Yuta under FTR Rules on Zero Hour after breaking a hockey stick over Wheeler's back and using it to make Wheeler tap to Redrum.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Dante Martin. Dante says he has been doing good, but he needs to do great, because injury set him back from being a champion. He got a win yesterday, but he almost got a win over a champion. Orange Cassidy shows up, and Dante takes the challenge for the International title, saying he needs the title. Orange dares him to try to take it.

Swerve Strickland beats a defiant "The Natural" Dustin Rhodes with two House Calls, an arm breaker and the Swerve Stomp after Dustin dares Swerve to do his worst and flips him off twice.

Chris Jericho, Sammy Guevara, Sting and Darby Allin beat Big Bill, "Absolute" Ricky Starks and The Don Callis Family ("The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita and Powerhouse Hobbs) in an eight-man tag match. (During the match, Jericho is booed and showered with "NDA" chants following rumors that Jericho took part in an act of sexual harassment backstage in AEW back in 2019.)

Julia Hart retains the AEW TBS Championship against Abadon. Abadon's House Rules stipulation for the match is that biting is legal. During the match, Skye Blue shows up and shoves Abadon off the top rope, but Abadon immediately rises and goes after Skye Blue and attacks her, giving Julia the opportunity to finish Abadon off.

Adam Copeland beats Christian Cage in a no-disqualification match to become the AEW TNT Champion after nearly putting "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne through a flaming table with a powerbomb. After the match, Copeland is attacked from behind by Killswitch, who proceeds to choke slam him before doing it again through an opened metal folding chair. After the match, Killswitch is about to cash in his shot at the TNT Championship when Christian demands he give him the contract. Killswitch gives in after Christian whispers into his ear. Christian then signs the contract, and he gets his title rematch. Christian hits Copeland with a Spear to regain the TNT Championship, ending Copeland's reign three minutes after it started. Afterwards, Copeland has to be helped to the back.

Samoa Joe beats MJF with the Coaquina Clutch to become the AEW World Champion! After the match, the crowd chants "Bullshit!" as Adam Cole tells MJF that he gave Joe everything he had. All of a sudden, The Devil's Masked Men show up as Cole is still in the ring, and they attack both MJF and Adam Cole. As both Adam Cole and MJF are held down and both of them dare one of the men with a chair to hit him, the lights go out. When they come back on, Adam Cole is sitting in the chair with the masked men, who reveal themselves to be The Kingdom (Matt Taven and Mike Bennett), Roderick Strong and Wardlow. The Kingdom are revealed to be the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions, and MJF is ganged up on before Adam Cole produces The Devil's mask from out of his jacket.
