Before the next match, MJF shows up and tells CM Punk that he hurt his feelings last week when he extended his hand, saying it was almost as bad as the time CM Punk took his ball and "went home like a little bitch." MJF then says that everyone loves "The Pipebomb," calling it CM Punk's best moment only to say that all of his moments are the best MJF moment, because he is not a one-trick pony like Punk. He says that he respects Punk, including the fact that he is straight edge, then says he could not imagine someone straight edge like Punk "looking like a meth addict," and says if he had Punk's face, he would need eight whiskey shots to look at himself in the mirror. MJF also takes offense to Punk not wanting to wrestle him, but chalks it up to Punk "not wanting none," then says he is not just a big fish in a small pond and that he looks like a minnow, then says he will finish him faster than his UFC career. He then says Punk's watch will say "Outta time" instead of "Clobberin' time," and says that while Punk drops pipebombs for retorts, he drops nukes. CM Punk finally takes the microphone. Punk tells MJF he is so disappointed in him, but then give props to MJF for introducing himself, as he thought MJF stood for "My Jealous Fan." He says that Punk never brought up MJF by design, as he did not want to feed his rotten ego and that he is already in his head due to the poster of him on his wall. He says that he had heard of him, and last week, he shut him up without saying a word. Punk said MJF had a whole week only to come out with the lowest hanging fruit for zingers, and says that instead of revolutionary, "he's just a less famous Miz." MJF says Punk's retorts were "almost what he wanted," which encapsulates Punk's AEW career because nostalgia is a drug that misconstrues memories and Punk is nostalgia. He admits that he was fan, and felt that nobody could touch Punk because he was the best. He said that felt that way until Punk had difficulty beating the easiest competition and saying anything relevant. MJF then says Punk's breath "smells like shit" because he has been kissing ass, then calls Punk's promos robotic before saying Punk has gone soft, has gray hairs and is the one who needs to go to sleep. He then says he is looking at "PG Punk" instead of CM Punk and asked what happened to the Punk he knew, saying he might as well be preaching hustle, loyalty and respect. MJF says that problem is that he can see Punk and see through him, saying he is back for a boatload of money instead of the younger wrestlers and stayed out of the business for seven years either because he made stuff nobody bought or was terrified he could never hang. He then tells Punk he should be scared, because even though he should be showcased as the number one guy and has the opportunity to prove everyone right, the question of whether or not that can happen in a month or a year is there. MJF then says the envy is there and that Punk hates him because he represents everything he hates about the business, simply because he was born for it while Punk was a dumpy reject from Chicago who had to work his tail off. He then says it eats Punk that after all he has given for the business, he has been nothing more than second-best his whole career, whether it was with John Cena or Triple H, and now that he is in his ring, it will be no different. He says that Punk may claim to be the best in the world, he is better than Punk and Punk knows it. Punk says there is some truth to what MJF has just said, and that he would not know how the people would react or if he had it, but he is not scared any longer, especially of MJF. Punk says he sold out Madison Square Garden while MJF was on Rosie O'Donnell's show, then tells him that he will help him get on the New York Times in the obituaries and that he cannot "back up shit without his back-up." Punk says he looked at AEW and knew it was a place he wanted to be, and took on the heart and soul of AEW in Darby Allin and beat him without having to cheat while MJF so too busy talking he didn't know he was replaced by Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. He then says that MJF has talked too much and that they have wasted the fans' time, then says Chicago is the second city because it rebuilt itself from its own embers and that he will proudly wear number two. He also says that MJF will only be number one when everyone waits around long enough for Tony Khan to have a daughter MJF can marry, and says a better welcome back gift to Chicago is punching MJF in his "needle dick." MJF teases throwing down with Punk by taking off his jacket, then rolls out of the ring.

He says he is not fickle and that he did what he said he would do to Colt Cabana and also kicked his teeth out. He then says there are a few Dark Order members from Atlanta, Georgia, and dares them to challenge him so he can kick their heads in on the way to "Hangman" Adam Page. Suddenly, Adam Page shows up. Adam Page says Chicago holds a special place in his heart and says he cannot think of a better time and place to defend the AEW World Championship than right here and right now. He then says that Adam Page challenging him after he already had a match is "coward shit," not "cowboy shit." Page says that if Danielson does not want to wrestle him, he will not leave without a fight, and he will give Danielson the first punch.

Cassidy says it is nice to see all three members of Death Triangle in the ring again, then footage from Revolution 2020 of Death Triangle beating Orange Cassidy plays on the video screen. Taylor says it has been a while, but Best Friends still remember. PAC says that Best Friends are seeing the writing on the wall and want a shot at them, then tells them they have some work to do and are far from worthy, but Trent says that is not a problem when they have more wins than anyone else in AEW before telling them that "the boys are back in town" just as Kris Statlander shows up.
The Inner Circle head to the ring. Chris Jericho says that The Inner Circle are "back in black" after being given the beatdown of a lifetime by The Pinnacle, and while it gave them hospital stays and stitches, it gave them a wake-up call towards the bad decisions they have made over the past several months. He apologizes to the friend and says that those mistakes were caused by his "jerkoff friend" MJF, and while he is not smart about some things, he is smart about pro wrestling, which is why he took MJF into The Inner Circle to keep him under his thumb and use him for every ounce of his being and suck his life out. He says that he had everything perfectly planned and expected MJF to find out so they could kick his ass, but they did not expect MJF to be one step ahead. He says that MJF can do anything except put on a spray tan, saying that a few weeks ago, he was oranger than Orange Cassidy with more streaks than the toilet bowl that he shoved his face into last week. Jericho says that MJF may be at the pinnacle of the business at 25 years old and considers himself a fine wine who will get better with age, and that MJF wants that success now, but Jericho says those are some big shoes to fill and that he will have to be better than even the burbury scarf that he's been wearing for a few years now, going so far as to call the scarf gimmick infringement from five years ago. Jericho says that MJF is a mark who has been seeing what people think about him, and says that should be called "being a Max for yourself" before saying that MJF will never be better than him. He says that MJF failure to be better than him has caused the fine wine to ferment in his head, then goes on to mock the rest of the members of The Inner Circle, calling Tully Blanchard a third-rate Four Horsemen member, saying he cannot tell the difference between Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler, and saying that Shawn Spears has no upside and that his aligning with MJF is as bad as "rocking a blond mohawk in 2021." He says that Wardlow has a million dollar brain and a thirteen-cent body, and that Wardlow is so stupid he has to strip naked to count to 21. Jericho then says the new Inner Circle will dominate AEW with the fans behind them, and while The Pinnacle may beat the crap out of them, they do not care because they like to fight and they plan to form The Pinnacle into a human centipede with MJF in the back. He says that if The Pinnacle want blood and guts, they will get it on May 5th in a Blood and Guts Match, and tells The Pinnacle that the worst is yet to come.
Backstage, Dasha Gonzalez interviews Christian Cage, who says that last week was the culmination of an entire year of scratching, clawing and grinding in solitude for a return to the ring and taking back what was taken from him seven years ago. He says that Frankie Kazarian took him to the deep water and that Kazarian knows he is not like everyone else, as anybody who gets in the ring with him has to level up. Suddenly, Taz show up and says seven years is a long time, and says that Team Taz (Taz, "The Machine" Brian Cage, "Absolute" Ricky Starks, Powerhouse Hobbs, Hook) can help him before flat-out offering him a spot in Team Taz.

We hear from QT Marshall, who says that ever since the beginning of their friendship, he has done all of "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes' work and that Rhodes left him dead in the water before his career in AEW could get off the ground, and says that Rhodes was playing second fiddle to Ted DiBiase Jr. and covering his face in paint because even when he was known as "Dusty's kid," he knew he "wouldn't amount to shit." He then says that Cody figured it out, went into the indies and surrounded himself with "vanilla midgets" to feel like the superstar he could never be. Marshall then says he has surrounded himself too, but that he has surrounded himself with men who are hungry and sick of waiting in the shadows. He then says that he is no longer worried about other people's success, that Aaron Solow will never be known as "just somebody's boyfriend and that Nick Comoroto will never be called a "body guy." Anthony Ogogo says that he is a household name in the UK, and that the British people follow him and cheer his every punch, and that he will do Subway commercials for business and hurt people for pleasure, saying that "shitty America" is not Great Britain, and that the Americans will learn the hard way. Marshall then says that this is his factory, and Comoroto throws a bucket of bluepaint at the Nightmare Factory logo on the wall behind him.
Tony Schiavone interviews Sting on the stage. Once again, Jake "The Snake" Roberts shows up to interrupt, says that Darby Allin looks like "a little gerbil," and says that insanity is doing the same thing over again expecting different results. Lance Archer shows up, takes the microphone and says that if Roberts is crazy, then he is "one sick son of a bitch" and that he is sick of the agenda in AEW where he is put at the top only to go away afterwards. He says tht world will pay attention to him, and that Sting will pay attention to him because this is his time. Sting takes the microphone from Archer and says he is in agreement with Archer, saying he is main event material and that all he needs is Roberts channeling his anger in the right direction to stay on top and not disappear. Sting tells Archer he has what it takes and to go do it, then leaves. Archer laughs and then leaves along with Jake Roberts.
We hear from Team Taz (Taz, "The Machine" Brian Cage, "Absolute" Ricky Starks, Powerhouse Hobbs, Hook). Starks says that last night was great after "The Machine" Brian Cage got them the win and that the people need to hear from him, but Taz interrupts, saying they all need to be on the same page and that they have a potential offer with Christian Cage sitting on the table that they need to go for.

Britt tells Tony Khan to give the people what they want: her facing Hikaru Shida for the AEW Women's World Championship.

He then sends a message to Taylor by attacking hitting Orange with a Machka Kick after Taylor that he will receive twice as worse at Revolution.
Penta El Zero M beats Azriel.
Big Swole shows up. She says there is word going around that she is underutilized, but Swole says she is undervalued after scratching and clawing through Crohn's disease to become #1 contender for the AEW World Women's Championship, but when she did not get her title shot, she took some time off. She says the results of the recent tournament do not seem to matter, but they do. She says she is happy for Ryo Mizunami, but says that whoever wins between her and Hikaru Shida owes her a debt, because she will go through everyone to get what is hers. She says that payment is due after Revolution, and the price is gold.
