Leon Slater retains the TNA X Division Championship against Jason Hotch and Cedric Alexander in a three-way match. After the match, Cedric and Slater have a staredown in the middle of the ring.

Backstage, Gabby LaSpisa interviews Masha Slamovich. Masha says Jacy Jayne is going to be sorry that she had to step in the ring with her again tonight, and says that Jacy Jayne will not be on top of the world for long, as she made the Knockouts division violent and the Knockouts World Championship meaningful, and that Jacy will have the fight of her life.

Backstage, Leon Slater is met by Cedric Alexander, who congratulates him on the win tonight. Slater says he wants to be a fighting champion and the fans want to see them in a one-on-one match. Cedric reminds Slater that he did not pin him tonight, and until then, the X Division Championship is up for grabs.

The Rascalz (Myron Reed and Zachary Wentz) beat The Nemeths ("The Wanted Man" Nic and "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth). After the commercial break, The Nemeths refuse to leave the ring. Nic Nemeth says that the TNA World Tag Team Championships were stolen from them at Slammiversary and that nobody can be as good as them, calling the loss "a fluke." He then invokes their rematch clause to win back the tag team titles at Emergence. Ryan says The Hardys did not even pin them and that they won the match with a ladder, then says that Rhode Island sucks before making fun of it. This brings the attention of The Home Town Man, who does not take the mockery of his home town sitting down and defends Rhode Island after he shows up. He demands an apology for his hometown, but Ryan refuses, saying he will not apologize to an idiot and a goofball. The Home Town Man somehow stops The Nemeths from revealing that he is Cody Deaner and leads the fans into song, and Nic demands that The Home Town Man get out of their ring. The Home Town Man gives The Nemeths one last chance to apologize, but this leads to The Nemeths ganging up on The Home Town Man and attempting to unmask him. They unmask him, but The Home Town Man is able to cover his face with help from security, who soon gets superkicked by Nic Nemeth until The Rascalz rush back into the ring, saving The Home Town Man's mask as they force The Nemeths to retreat.

Mike Santana shows up in the crowd. He says that the eyes of the wrestling world were locked in on Slammiversary, yet he lost. He says he has been at the bottom before, but every time he was at the bottom, especially when his father passed away and he was doubted and counted out, he fought. He says that the hardest thing he had to deal with was looking across the ring and looking at the front row watching the tears roll down his daughter's face. He knew he had to put everything aside and confront his daughter and tell her everything will be okay, and his daughter told him that he was going to win the TNA World Championship next time. He says that on the drive back home, he knew what needed to be done, and that it is not a matter of if, but when he wins the TNA World Championship.

Masha Slamovich beats Jacy Jayne by disqualification after Masha is attacked from behind by Ash by Elegance with one of the Knockouts World Tag Team Championship belts. Heather by Elegance and M by Elegance show up as Ash argues with Fallon Henley and Jazmyn Nyx, and this also leads to Xia Brookside and Lei Ying Lee showing up to help Masha up. Jacy Jayne retains the TNA Knockouts World Championship.

As per the Bioflex Injury Report, Gia Miller is cleared following a head injury suffered from Tessa Blanchard at Slammiversary. Moose is cleared following a hip injury. Elijah is still out with a torn triceps, but recovery is going well. Jake Something is cleared following some bruising during his match with Mance Warner, as is Warner himself.

Backstage, AJ Francis and Trick Williams find out that KC Navarro cannot be cleared tonight, and this leads to tonight's six-man tag match main event becoming a tag team match.

We hear from Mara Sadé, who talks about her athletic background as well as how much she enjoys being in the wrestling ring. She hopes to build on the legacy that was built by the TNA Knockouts.

Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz) and their tall Secret Service agent head to the ring for their Slammiversary victory celebration. Mustafa Ali says that TNA is full of chaos and disorder due to outsiders infiltrating their locker room, taking opportunities away from TNA talent and taking TNA's championship. He says that it is time for change, and that change lies with Order 4. Mustafa says he will go to war with The Great Hands (Skyler and Hotch) at his side and that Tasha Steelz will make sure his word is heard around the world. He then announces that his weapon of mass destruction - Agent Zero, the tall head of his Secret Service - will make sure no one opposes him. Mustafa then asks who wants to see him as TNA World Champion, then says the fans' boos mean nothing to him as he knows that they cheer for people like Mike Santana and Joe Hendry. Joe Hendry says that there are no secrets in TNA and that there are cameras everywhere, some of which have captured some embarassing footage of John Skyler backstage. We then see footage of a Joe Hendry plushie with a John Skyler mask covering the face in an attempt to embarrass Skyler, with the last of the footage showing the plushie at a toilet. Mustafa Ali says that Hendry is a joke and that he wishes he could make Hendry disappear when he says his name. This leads to Hendry challengeing Mustafa to a match in the ring tonight, and Mustafa accepts for next week to give Hendry and everyone else to prepare for something to truly believe in. Hendry says the only thing Order 4 will be ordering is ear plugs when the fans chant "We believe."

In footage from earlier today, Tom Hannifan interviews Sami Callihan. Callihan says he is embarrassed, and while he is not mad at Moose, he is disgusted with himself. He thinks that maybe Moose is right and that he has been the same, and that he has always suffered with weight issues. He feels that being in front of the camera is a disservice, and when asked if he is retiring, Callihan calls out Mike Santana for a match at Emergence; if he wins, he could be on to a comeback; if he loses, he hangs up his boots for good.

The System (Eddie Edwards and Moose) beat Trick Williams and AJ Francis after KC Navarro aims for Moose for his crutches only to hit AJ Francis instead.

Backstage, we hear from Athena, who explains what happened last night on Dynamite. She says that she does not respect "Timeless" Toni Storm and that it will be easy to beat her for the AEW Women's World Championship, which is why she did not cash her contract on her. She says she will sign her contract for a guaranteed title shot at Forbidden Door in London, where Toni "does not have the best luck" and she will be able to have "a super-spontaneous moment" when she beats her. Athena says no door is forbidden to her and that it is only a matter of time, for when she activates, no one is going to stop her.

"Platinum" Max Caster is in the ring. He calls Chicago "Chiraq" and gets the fans to do his chant, then says nobody in the city can hang with him and just get worse every week, much like Anthony Bowens, and says that he is not "a bland, crybaby bitch" like Bowens. He issues the five-minute open challenge, which is answered by Rush.

"Platinum" Max Caster vs. Rush ends after five minutes when it becomes obvious that Rush would rather beat Caster down at his own pace.

Tony Schiavone introduces Christian Cage to the ring. On the subject of being told by Adam Copeland to go find himself, Christian Cage says that he is an asshole who is numb to the world and everything in it and that he was only obsessed with being AEW World Champion. He says that after he cashed in and hit the perfect Spear, he came into contact with his past, became "an asshole with feeling," and it cost him everything. Christian says that while he has no problem with Kip Sabian and "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne standing up to him, they have not earned the right to question him, for he has done more in the business than they have in their entire careers. He says he took a risk and deviated from the plan because he did not think The Patriarchy (Wayne, Sabian, Mother Wayne) would pull the plan off, and states that they know nothing about risk after they rode off his coattails as he did everything that he did. Christian says he has also heard what Copeland has said to him, then asks if what he said to him was really that bad, as he himself was an opportunist who did unsavory things to get to the top. He then tells Copeland that they are so different, yet somehow, they are the same. As for The Patriarchy, they embarrassed him at All In and decided they did not need a patriarch before making some innuendos regarding Mother Wayne. As for Nick Wayne, he asks him how it will go when he has to show up and actually fight, for he has answered the bell for the things he has said. He says that Nick Wayne had more talent than he did and that he protected him from everything, and while Nick Wayne has every tool to be the new face of AEW now and forever, he will have to go through him to do it. Christian then tells Nick Wayne that he has a father who is dead and a father who is dead to him, and officially disowns Nick Wayne. On the way out, Mother Wayne shows up and tries to slap Christian Cage, but it serves as a distraction for Nick Wayne and Kip Sabian to ambush Christian. Nick Wayne disowns Christian in turn before he and Sabian clap metal folding chairs into both sides of Christian's head.

Backstage, we hear from FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and Stokely Hathaway. Stokely says Adam Copeland is banned from the building tonight after his recent action, and that The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Shelton Benjamin, Bobby Lashley) committed "an act of cowardice."

Backstage, Alicia Atout interviews Willow Nightingale, who says that she has a match with "The Toxic Spider" Thekla tomorrow night on Collision.

Mark Briscoe beats Ricochet. During the match, Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona) show up, and as they get involved in the match, Bandido and Brody King show up to take them out so that Briscoe can get the win. After the match, Mark Briscoe says tonight is just getting started before calling out MJF for evoking Jay Briscoe's name more than once, then says he has never felt like this before and that he needs help. He says that if he kills MJF in cold blood, he will not see his brother in Heaven, for he will not repent and he will not even feel the slightest bit of remorse. Briscoe tells MJF to make his day and face him in the ring right here and right now. MJF's entrance theme hits, but MJF shows up on the video screen. MJF says he is not an idiot and that he considers Briscoe a waste of his time, and that next week, he will face Briscoe to get to "Hangman" Adam Page. He then says this assumes that Mark Briscoe makes it, and MJF suddenly shows up from behind Briscoe and kicks him in the groin and attacks him before asking who the real coward is. MJF puts on the Dynamite Diamond Ring, then "Hangman" Adam Page shows up. MJF rushes out of the ring to avoid both a Buckshot Lariat and a Jay Driller.

Trick Williams shows up and says "the biggest dog has finally arrived," then warns him that he should not mess with him, as they have danced before and he came out on top. Je'Von says Trick should slow down, especially after The Undertaker choke slammed him to Hell, but Trick says he is still Total Nonstop Action World Champion and the biggest thing in TNA. Je'Von tells Trick he was really talking about Oba Femi and not him, but Trick Williams says Oba Femi wishes he was him and entertains taking what he has. Je'Von warns Trick he has no problem taking him out if he gets in his way. Suddenly, The High Ryze (Wes Lee, Tyson Dupont, Tyriek Igwe) shows up, and Wes Lee says that while Je'Von will have his road to the championship, it will be long, for The High Ryze will stop him in his tracks. Je'Von says he will start tonight with Wes Lee, then punches Wes Lee in the face.

Blake Monroe heads to the ring. Blake says that Jordynne Grace is not a superstar and is more of a background player, or as some would say, an extra. Blake continues to mock Jordynne through older pictures of her and claims that Jordynne sees "gym membership material" when she looks in a mirror. She then states that she considers herself "star power" and what to build a brand around, and that WWE knew about her before she started wrestling, and that when one looks as good as her, one does not need to change a thing. All of a sudden, Lola Vice shows up and says that while Blake is beautiful on the outside, she is ugly on the outside, then says that Blake Monroe will not be champion of the NXT women's division. As Lola says she knows how to make viral moments, Jaida Parker shows up and says she does not need anybody to make any kind of noise and that she is chasing championships and not clout. As Blake mocks both Lola and Jaida, Jordynne Grace's music hits, but Kelani Jordan shows up instead and says that she is the future and dares Blake to face her in a match, saying that on her best day, she cannot do it like her.

Backstage, Vic Joseph interviews Myles Borne. Myles talks about how he was born deaf and how he almost died soon after he was born, how he had to learn to read lips and how he has learned to block the hate out with people like Lexis King.

As General Manager Ava gets injury updates from Robert Stone and Stevie Turner - Ricky Starks will be back in no time following a bruised sternum, while Jordynne Grace has avoided serious spinal injuries - Lexis King shows up and says Myles Borne is not really deaf and is being "a con man," saying that if Myles is deaf, then he is blind as a bat. Lexis gets a match against Myles Borne next week, and Lexis says he looks forward to proving that Myles is a fraud in the ring as much as he is out of it.

"Main Event" Jey Uso heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Before Jey Uso can speak, Paul Heyman shows up and mentions Jey being in the main event tonight with "Big" Bronson Reed, but when he gets started on the subject of family, Heyman sees the look in Jey's eyes and backs off. He finds it audacious that Jey is teaming with Roman Reigns against Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker in the name of family, then says that family will always let one down and is always going to get one in trouble. He compares the situation to being lied to by his mother about Santa Claus leaving presents underneath the tree, being told by his father to be more iconic than he ever was, or Solo being picked over him as next in life for Tribal Chief by Roman. He also says that Roman Reigns lied to him about telling Jey that he loved him before making a loud "YEEEEEEET!" sound and tossing the microphone towards the ring. This leads to a "bullshit" chant from the crowd. Jey takes the microphone and says that family is why he is here, and dares Heyman to keep running his mouth, because he pulls up for his family every single time. He also says that he accomplished what he accomplished in spite of Roman and to prove things to himself, then asks Heyman where his family is since he wants to mention his and says that what happens from here on out will be on Heyman.

All of a sudden, Grayson Waller and The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) show up, and Grayson brags about being allied with The New Day now that he is no longer with Austin Theory. This leads to Sheamus challenging Grayson to a fight. Sheamus leaves, then finds out The New Day is not behind him.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs andUFC light heavyweight fighter Jamahal Hill are seen in the crowd.

Sheamus beats Grayson Waller despite the attempted interference by Rusev. After the match, Rusev hits Sheamus repeatedly with a shillelagh before putting him in the Accolade, which requires multiple referees to pull Rusev out of.

Backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews Naomi. Naomi says that Rhea Ripley is not the only one radiating with talent, and that she can fly high like Iyo Sky. She says that she will show what she can do in tonight's eight-woman tag match, which she calls "a cautionary tale," and says she will take everyone out and retain her title.

WWE Superstars past and present mention their thoughts on Hulk Hogan.

Backstage, Paul Heyman tells "Big" Bronson Reed that "Main Event" Jey Uso's family says that with Seth "Freakin'" Rollins on the shelf for a while, that they are just a group without a leader. Bron Breakker shows up and says they have this, and tonight, Bronson will destroy Jey Uso and restore the ultimate power and total control over all of WWE. Bronson says Jey and any member of his family who shows up will be left down, out and Tsunami'd. Heyman is surprised that worked after Bronson leaves, then Breakker says that he has a plan.

Lyra Valkyria heads to the ring. Lyra shows off her shoes, which she calls "Becky stompers," then says that in one week, she will either be the first-ever two-time Women's Intercontinental Champion or she will have failed and cannot challenge Becky Lynch for the title again. Lyra decides to do everything Becky's way after seeing everything she has been capable of, then says Becky does not know what she is capable of and that she is prepared to go somewhere she has never gone before. Becky Lynch shows up from out of nowhere with a shinai, but Lyra sees her, attacks her and hits her with the shinai. Becky soon catches the shinai and fights back briefly, but retreats when Lyra goes for Nightwing.

In footage from earlier today, Corey Graves interviews Sami Zayn.

He says he needs to be World Heavyweight Champion like he needs air in his lungs, like his heart to pump blood through his veins, like the Detroit Red Wings need a 12th Stanley Cup and like a Midwestern dad needs a beer while mowing the lawn. He says he does not drink, but he gets addiction, and he is addicting to winning championship gold and raising it above his head for the man that have chanted his name for over the last 10-plus years. Punk says he needs to be World Heavyweight Champion, and for Gunther to state that he does not deserve to call himself the best in the world when he has earned that title and the right to be arrogant about it. He states that Gunther shows that same arrogance, then interrupts him to tell him that there are levels to this and that Gunther is not on his level, and on Saturday night, he will leave World Heavyweight Champion.

After the match, Tony Schiavone interviews FTR and Stokely. Stokely says Adam Copeland belongs in prison. He says that he is not a professional wrestling and that Copeland had no business putting his hands on him before proceeding to call Copeland "a cancer on AEW" before Copeland shows up. Copeland tells Stokely that even though he cannot approach Stokely and FTR, he has made a business agreement with some gentlemen whose business is hurting people: The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin).

Will Ospreay heads to the ring. Ospreay wishes he was wrestling tonight, then says he has been struggling with his neck for ten months. He says he has made promises to Swerve Strickland, "Hangman" Adam Page and the fans, and while the sacrifice was made, the world title is back. He says that after what happened at All In, he found out that two discs have been affected; thankfully, it is treatable, and all going well, he should be back for Forbidden Door. Ospreay thanks Swerve and says it was an honor to fight by Hangman's side and that he looks forward to a rematch, then warns The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta) that he is coming for them as soon as he is healthy.

MJF heads to the ring. MJF says he does not need Bobby Lashley to get the AEW World Championship back, and says that "Hangman" Adam Page is the real coward for not wanting to wrestle him unless he cashes in his Casino Gauntlet Match contract. After MJF states that he will wrestle and beat Hangman fair and square for the AEW World Championship, Mark Briscoe shows up and says that while he wants to shove the microphone up MJF's ass, he has kids to feed. He says that "that opportunistic bastard" MJF stole the Casino Gauntlet Match win from him before challenging him to a match next week, which MJF declines, declaring that Briscoe loses when the pressure is on while he wins. MJF states that he is the most complete professional wrestler in the world today and tells Briscoe that he sucks and is "white trash" just like the fans in the Midwest, who cannot get enough of Briscoe because of how he entertains them. He then states that not even his biggest fans think Briscoe is a "top guy" or anywhere near his level, and calls him "a joke" and a clown who is brought out for cheap laughs, stating that he is not respected or feared like Jay Briscoe. MJF says that he cannot see how Mark Briscoe looks in the mirror thinking anyone will respect him as much as his brother. Briscoe runs into the ring, and MJF runs away.

Mark Briscoe beats Claudio Castagnoli with an inside cradle. After the match, Marina Shafir hits Mark Briscoe from behind with a chop block, then Jon Moxley and Wheeler Yuta show up. Claudio slams Briscoe into an open chair before Moxley says that "Hangman" Adam Page is no champion and decides to make an example out of Briscoe. Hangman says that Moxley was lying when he said he wanted a Texas Death Match, then tells Moxley that he will prove to him that he has what it takes to be a champion, and challenges him to a rematch for the World Championship next week. He then says that Moxley is the challenger this time and will play by his rules, and this time, everyone will be banned from ringside. Hangman then says he knows Moxley's answer will be yes, and that he will see him next week.

Here are the highlights for tonight's show!
