Wheeler Yuta beats Willie Mack. After the match, Jon Moxley shows up from out of the crowd and hits Wheeler Yuta from behind with the briefcase, then takes a microphone and says he has a lesson to teach Yuta about finishing the job. He gets in the ring and tells Yuta to take Adam Copeland out on Dynamite and ensure that he does not leave the ring under his own power, as he does not deserve a clear shot at the AEW World Championship.

Backstage, Mercedes Moné is met by Billie Starks, who hands the TBS Championship back to her before giving her a message from Momo Watanabe: enjoy holding the TBS Championship while it lasts, because at Revolution, she is taking it.

We hear from "Timeless" Toni Storm, who is in bed wearing a neck brace. She says that the nicest thing about being piledriven on the stage is waking up to panicked doctors and dozens of messages asking if she will ever walk again. She says that it gives one time to think if it was either all worth it or a complete waste of time, as her dreams have been haunted by a woman who will not let her wake up. Toni tells "The Glamour" Mariah May "Let's get lucid," as Mariah can pry the AEW Women's World Championship "from her cold, dead hips" while she leaves her soul at home. She also asks if Mariah wants the spotlight that drove her to her in the first place, and says she can give it to her. Toni then says that if Mariah liked Grand Slam Australia, then that show will be foreplay compared to the Hollywood ending that she wants. She says she does not want or need disqualifications, count-outs or rope breaks, and that no holds will be barred and falls will count anywhere. Toni hopes Mariah believes in God before ripping her neck brace off and proclaiming that Mariah will meet Her.

Justice wants to be the third man, but AJ says he needs Big Justice in his corner. Orange says he has a guy for that: Mark Briscoe, who becomes AJ's other partner. He says he has MxM Collection's (Mason Madden and Mansoor) fashion right here, and that they will whup Johnny TV at Revolution.

We hear from Kenny Omega. Omega says he was out for an entire year wondering if he would ever wrestle again, and he had to keep hearing Don Callis talk about how "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita beat him twice in one week. He admits this got on his nerves and he is already pissed off, but what he plans to do to Takeshita is not about revenge, but about the International Championship, as whoever holds the belt is regarded as the best. He says that if Takeshita can beat him three times, then it is time for him to admit that Takeshita is better and that Takeshita is Callis' real meal ticket, and that he could never challenge for another championship again as the old him is gone. Omega then says that he has had an entire year to clear his mind, refocus, hone in on his training and sharpen all his dull points to make weaknesses into strengths after leaving his old friends behind and no longer having the baggage of being an Executive Vice President. He says that his focus is on the International Championship, not because of revenge, not because of Don Callis, and not because of Takeshita, and at Revolution, he is taking the title.
