Page says it would be really easy to talk about how he respects CM Punk, how he looks forward to shaking his hand and facing him at Double or Nothing, and how he looks forward to having an all-time classic match with Punk, but that is not happening. Page says that at Double or Nothing, there will be no handshake and no tribute match; instead, he is going to destroy CM Punk, and that a fan with a CM Punk in the audience will be getting a refund on their Punk shirt if they haven't already burned it. He then says that Punk is not here tonight because he is filming another TV show, then says that he will embarrass Punk when he gives him the fight of his life.

Brian Pillman Jr. says he stands in the ring "a very humbled young man" thanks to their history with The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews) and seeing everything he has worked for being torn apart little by little. He then says that he and Garrison lost enthusiasm and quotes John Harbaugh - Balitmore Ravens head coach and his late father's friend and college roomate - saying to attack each day with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind, that The House of Black took advantage of their lack of enthusiasm and tore them apart. He then says that today is a new day and that he is very enthusiastic about keeping everything together. Pillman then calls out The House of Black for a fight, and The House of Black show up and eventually fight The Varsity Blonds.

Thunder Rosa shows up. She says everyone has a story to tell and that hers is full of good guys and bad guys as well as successes and failures. She says she fought hard to win and retain the AEW Women's World Champion. She says that when she first showed up in AEW, she just wanted to represent women's wrestling, but she became a bloodline and backbone for the women's division and become the champion of a division people continue to criticize. Rosa says that she has become one of the best in the division and that she wants to face off against the best, then says she wants to face the woman who inspired her to become the best she could be: the #1 contender, Serena Deeb. Serena shows up and says it has been a long time, and that she has watched her earn her way to the top. She says she respects Rosa, and says they can make the best women's division in the entire world. She then says that for this to happen, she has to be champion, and while the women's world title suggests one is the best, everyone knows she is on another level and a class of her own. Serena then says she must win the title to show that. Thunder Rosa tells Serena is she is going to bet on that, and Serena says she bets that Rosa will have the shortest women's world title reign in history when she takes the title at Double or Nothing.

He says that FTR give their best every night of the week, and says that Austin and Colton Gunn are just "Billy's sons" to him.
William Regal guests on commentary for the next match.
Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley beat The Varsity Blonds (Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr.) with a bulldog choke from Moxley to Garrison. After the match, Moxley says he is a very lucky man and fortunate enough to compete against and learn from the best in the world, and says that Regal's opinion is the one that he has cared about most. He says that the seal of approval from Regal is a badge of honor that he has to earn through pain, blood, torture and dislocated joints, and that he wears that "Blackpool badge of honor" with pride just like Bryan Danielson does. Moxley says that they were forged in combat, and anyone who wants to step in the ring with them needs to step up or get stepped on. He then says that if anyone has what it takes to ride with them, they much reach down to the place inside where they love pain. He also says that the only way to get the seal of approval from "The Blackpool Combat Club" is the hard way.
MJF and Shawn Spears head to the ring. When they do, a security detail stands between the ring and the ramp. MJF says it is such a shame that Wardlow could not get the job done last week, and says that he is a man of his word and honors his business agreements unlike Wardlow. He says that he meant it when he said that Wardlow could keep the TNT Championship, then says it is so sad that Wardlow could not beat Scorpio Sky. MJF then addresses CM Punk, saying he had him beaten at Revolution only for Punk to cheat to win. MJF tells Punk that there will be another match, and when there is, he will give Punk the most embarrassing loss of his career and it will not be over until he attends his funeral and pisses on his grave. MJF then focuses back on Wardlow, mocking the fans for liking Wardlow by saying they are inbred before calling Wardlow "a greedy little pig" and saying that if it were not for him, the fans would not know who Wardlow is, as he made him. He says that Wardlow had nothing until he showed, and now he has a roof over his and his mothers' head. He then says that Wardlow repaid him by costing him the biggest match of his career before asking him to release him from his contract. MJF reminds Wardlow that when he signed the contract, he signed with a deal with the devil and that the devil's deals are iron-clad. He then says that if Wardlow thought he had it bad before, he will make his life a living hell now. MJF tells Wardlow that he owns him as he stares straight into the camera, then Wardlow shows up only to be held back by ten security guards. MJF tells Wardlow he works for him, not AEW, and that he does not want him around her anymore. MJF then declares that Wardlow is trespassing and that he will continue to pay him to stay home until the fans forget he ever existed and he winds up the same way he found him: an absolute nobody. Wardlow is then escorted to the back. MJF then says that The Pinnacle is still around and better than ever without Wardlow, and Shawn Spears that when you're in The Pinnacle, you're always on top.
Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Best Friends (Chuck Taylor, Trent Baretta, Orange Cassidy, Wheeler Yuta). Trent Barretta tells Wheeler Yuta that while he never liked him, but if he wants to join William Regal, Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley, he is done with him. Yuta says he never liked Baretta either and that he wants to be the best wrestler he can be, not the best friend, and Barretta either gets it or he doesn't.
Adam Cole beats Jay Lethal with a low blow after reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) distract the referee. After the match, Cole says there is nobody on the planet who deserves the AEW World Championship more than him and that Adam Page stole his victory at Revolution. He says that when he pinned Jungle Boy in their trios match last week, he saw fear in Page's eyes and knew that Page saw the man who would take his title. He says Page caught lightning in a bottle at Revolution and that next time, he will shove the bottle up Page's ass. Adam Cole says that he is a fighter while Page is a coward who is afraid to face him and reDRagon in the ring, then Adam Page shows up and gets in the ring. Page hits all three men with a leather belt, but Cole hits Page with a low blow and the numbers game takes over. Suddenly, Jungle Boy, Christian Cage and Luchasaurus show up and chase Cole and reDRagon out of the ring. As this happens, Cole runs off with the AEW World Championship.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Sammy Guevara and Tay Conti in the ring. Guevara says that three weeks ago, he lost the TNT Championship, but it is what it is and he still has the ring and he will give a show like no one has never seen before. He says that he has been told that he can't keep up his style forever and that while he will pay for it when he gets older, it will be worth it due to the fans. Tay Conti says that he and Guevara want payback, and that Paige VanZant will get her ass kicked. Guevara then wants a mixed tag match against American Top Team right now. Dan Lambert then shows up with The Men of the Year (Scorpio Sky and "All Ego" Ethan Page) and puts them and Paige VanZant on a pedestal before mocking Guevara and Conti. He then says that American Top Team will stay on top while looking back at the bodies they've laid out, then The Men of the Year head to the back after laughing on their way out. After Lambert kisses his TNT Championship belt while telling Guevera he can kiss that match tonight goodbye, Guevara tells Lambert that if he knew what he and Conti did with the TNT Championship, then he would know that they live in his mouth just like they live in his head rent-free.
We see a video package for Swerve Strickland vs. "Absolute" Ricky Starks this week on Rampage.

After the match, Leyla continues to attack Red Velvet and puts her in a cross arm breaker before Kris Statlander runs into the ring and beats Leyla up.

Tony Schavione interviews Thunder Rosa on the stage. Before the interview can start, however, Vickie Guerrero loudly interrupts before saying that she is not a real Texan and to "take [her] green card, do the backstroke and return to Mexico." As Thunder Rosa talks back to Vickie, Vickie interrupts her before "The Native Beast" Nyla Rose attacks Thunder Rosa from behind. Vickie says that Nyla is a real champion and that no one is hungrier for the AEW Women's World Championship. (The promo ends up being met with so much backlash that AEW completely removes it from their social media channels and never mentions it again.)
Before the next match, "Magic Daddy" Matt Menard says that the fans do not appreciate the fact that Jericho allows them to sing "Judas" and that there should be no entrance theme.
Jericho Appreciation Society (Chris Jericho and Daniel Garcia) beat The Dark Order (John Silver and Alex Reynolds) after Jericho hits Reynolds with Floyd behind the referee's back to allow Garcia to make Reynolds tap to the Sharpshooter.
