Jeff Jarrett is the special guest enforcer for the next match.
"The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson beats "Hangman" Adam Page to win the men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament and earn a AEW World Championship match at All In after rolling Hangman onto his shoulders as Hangman has him in the crossface. During the match, referee Paul Turner is knocked out of the ring, and when Hangman disrespects Jarrett for confronting him as he is choking Danielson with his belt, Jarrett reveals that he has a referee's shirt under his other shirt, and he referees the rest of the match. After the match, Danielson is personally awarded the Owen Cup and the commemorative championship belt by Dr. Martha Hart. Afterwards, Prince Nana and Swerve Strickland head to the ring. Swerve Strickland says that whoever holds the AEW World Championship is the best in the world, and that he had to beat Ospreay to silence any doubt who is the best. He congratulates Danielson for winning the men's Owen Cup and says it will be an honor to face him for the World Championship at All In, but he still remembers the pinfall victory Danielson has over him and he still holds a grudge. Swerve says that Danielson is on a career downturn while he is the most dangerous man in AEW, then addresses The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson) trying to bribe him, saying he will be joining the Blood & Guts Match on the side of Team AEW. He says that one does not make a Team AEW without the AEW World Championship, then says he will defeat Will Ospreay and lead Team AEW in victory against The Elite (Nicholas Jackson, Matthew Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, "Scapegoat" Jack Perry) this year, two things that Danielson has failed to do. Swerve then challenges Okada to a match and tells him that he will teach how to really make it rain, then tells Danielson that he will see him at All In and that it will truly be his final countdown.
We see The Acclaimed's ("Platinum" Max Caster, Anthony Bowens, "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn) new rap, "Two Times," where The Acclaimed target The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson).
"The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho beats Samoa Joe in a Stampede Street Fight by doctor stoppage after Big Bill and "The Bad Apple" Bryan Keith attack Samoa Joe backstage and put him on a pallet on a forklift, which Chris Jericho then mans and runs through a wall. Colt Cabana confronts Jericho afterwards.
Samoa Joe is rushed into an ambulance, and The Learning Tree ("The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho, Big Bill, "The Bad Apple" Bryan Keith) watch and wave goodbye to Joe.
Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.
PAC beats Kyle Fletcher, Claudio Castagnoli and Tomohiro Ishii in a Global Glory 4-Way Match with a Black Arrow and a Brutalizer to Kyle Fletcher to earn a shot at the AEW International Championship. After the match, PAC says things have not gone well for him, and while he has made bold promises, he has also made many humiliating failures. He says he does not know what he will do next, but it is "All In season" and he will not be denied his moment. He designates tonight's victory a line in the sand, and says that "The Bastard will be back."
Backstage, Renee Paquette gets a surprise interviews with "Hangman" Adam Page, who knocks on a door and confronts The Elite (Nicholas Jackson, Matthew Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada), saying "I'll do it" before leaving.
Mercedes Moné heads to the ring. Mercedes thanks The Young Bucks for the security, stating that she will not be interrupted during her double championship celebration and that she is the past, the present and the future, as she is "the best there was, the best there is, and the best there ever will be." She also tells Dr. Britt Baker to stay away from her titles, warning that she will leave her with more than a couple of herniated disks and that she will leave her laying. Suddenly, Britt Baker shows up and fights security on the way to the ring. Mercedes flees the ring and flees through the ring.
Backstage, it is revealed that Brandon Cutler has been attacked by Darby Allin, who tells "Scapegoat" Jack Perry that Cutler just made his sacrifice and that he is just getting started with The Elite (Nicholas Jackson, Matthew Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, "Scapegoat" Jack Perry) for Dynamite 250.
Mariah May beats Willow Nightingale after countering a Death Valley Driver with a Victory Roll to win the women's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament and the women's Owen Cup as well as a shot at the AEW Women's World Championship at All In. During the match, Stokely Hathaway and Kris Statlander almost cost Willow the match, with Stokely grabbing at Willow so that Kris can hit Willow with a cheap shot while "Timeless" Toni Storm distracts the refere. After the match, Mariah May skips to the back with Toni, then smacks her with the commemorative women's tournament title belt before also attacking Luther. Mariah continues to attack the two of them, busting Toni open in the process, kicking both of them in the gut, opening the head wound in Toni's forehead with one of her heels and knocking Luther off the side of the stage and through a table to end the show.
Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
