Swerve says that the path to the World Championship means the world to him and has changed him as an individual. He says that if you aren't allowed in when you knock on the door long enough, you must make noise. As for Bryan Danielson, it is all about his legacy for him, and that he needs something to wake up in the morning for and to fight for. Swerve says he is in the driver's seat now and that he controls the narrative, and that this not only worries Danielson, but everyone else. He also says he does not care much about Danielson. He says that people love to brag about the pain they can induce, then asks what happens when nothing works because their body cannot work. Swerve then says he will beat Danielson at All In, as his legacy belongs to him now.

He talks about how he came close to becoming TNT Champion only to come up short, then says he is more focused on this week, which is Shark Week, which makes him think of Blood & Guts.

She says that for the last ten months, everyone has wondered where she has been. Britt says that she has been injured in that time, but it takes more than injury to keep her away from AEW. She then mentions that one day, she started feeling very sick and the room was spinning, her vision was blurring and her right arm was tingling and numb, and she could not even open a water bottle. Soon, her full right side stopped working. Britt reveals she was diagnosed with a transient ischemic attack, or TIA, and that she basically had a mini-stroke, and that she had to take time off. Britt says she is now cleared and healthy, but she admits that she was more nervous and unsure of herself than she was on Sunday because she did not know if anyone would cheer for her when she came out of the tunnel. She thanks everyone for welcoming her back with open arms and says that she will always be in the fans' corner, for at the end of the day, she is one of them. Britt tells the fans to go through a hard time if they happen to be in one and come out of the other side, as we all possess the insult to become elite. She also admits that there is a new female face of AEW after shedding blood, sweat and tears in the ring and building the company from the ground up, and sarcastically states that she worked for a decade to become a CEO. She then says that the only three letters that matter in this company are D.M.D. All of a sudden, Mercedes Moné shows up at the arena, where she is congratulated by The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson). Matthew then demands that Mercedes' championship celebration start while Britt is still in the ring, and balloons are placed in the corners of the ring and the center of the mat as Mercedes makes her way there. The crowd starts chanting "D.M.D.," much to the slight shock of Mercedes, and Britt takes this as Mercedes outshining her moment. Mercedes takes this as Britt trying to steal her spotlight, and tells her to look at what a real champion looks like. Britt says she was the first woman going all in for All Elite Wrestling while Mercedes was "a broken bitch with a broken leg," and wants to challenge her at All In. Mercedes tells Britt to get in the back of the line. Britt says "Bitch, what line?" Mercedes, noting Britt is a fan, tells Britt that there is a price to pay when you mess with Mercedes Moné.

Will Ospreay retains the AEW International Championship against Daniel Garcia after MJF offers Garcia the Dynamite Diamond Ring and Garcia refuses, which allows Ospreay to hit the Hidden Blade for the win. After the match, Ospreay tries to console Garcia and offers him words of encouragement, then leaves. MJF then takes the blame for Garcia's loss and tells Garcia that he busted his ass, then tells Garcia that the fans still love him before raising his hand and hugging him. MJF then kicks Garcia in the groin before putting on the Dynamite Diamond Ring. When "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard shows up, MJF punches Menard with the ring, then spits on Garcia and punches Garcia with the ring.

He says most people would call this a deal breaker, but they are not like most people. Callis then brings up Jon Moxley meeting back up with him and saying "You're one of us now," and seeing nothing in his eyes. He says that they are both exactly alike, then says that it kills himself inside to see him face Konosuke Takeshita, as he sees himself in Moxley. Callis then tells Moxley to imagine the two of them running AEW together with Moxley as a member of Callis' family, then hands Moxley the microphone. All the while, everyone boos Callis out of the building and cheers Moxley. Moxley then tells Callis that he wants more commitment than the one scar on his forehead and wants to put 24 more on it, then he is then attacked from behind by Takeshita. Takeshita takes a metal folding chair and wraps it around Moxley's left arm, then goes to the middle rope and flips Moxley off before hitting the chair with a knee drop.

Mariah May makes the save for Toni before receiving her Toni Award.



"The Prodigy" Nick Wayne beats Adam Priest. After the match, Christian rips a "Christian Skips Leg Day" sign from a man in a gold luchador mask. The man in the mask ends up being Adam Copeland, who fends The Patriarchy (Christian Cage, Nick Wayne, Killswitch) off before pulling a box out from underneath the ring.

Tony Schiavone interviews FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) in the ring. Cash Wheeler says Revolution did not go their way, and while life has a way of kicking one while one is down, all they can do is dust themselves off and keep moving forward. He also announces that 2024 marks a decade of FTR, and now that there is a tag team title tournament around the corner, they are throwing their names into the ring. Dax Harwood says AEW has been built on the back of good tag team wrestling, and says that while it would be easy for him to say FTR is the greatest tag team of all time and that they will win the tournament and the titles, but he is not a liar. He feels that FTR may not be worthy of being in the tournament, but if they are allowed in it, they will give their all for the fans and ultimately become the first-ever three-time tag team champs in AEW history. Suddenly, The Infantry ("The Captain" Shawn Dean and "Bad News and Tattoos" Carlie Bravo) shows up and introduces themselves to the AEW crowd. Carlie Bravo says that they respect FTR and everything they have done before shaking their hands in the name of good sportsmanship.

Backstage, we hear from The Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli). Jon Moxley says he and Claudio Castagnoli will ruin their reputation at this rate, and while one cannot fix stupid, one can choke it. He says FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) is a benchmark for tag team wrestling night in and night out, but they know tag team wrestling, too, and they are every bit the artists FTR are. Moxley says he and Claudio can read each other's minds, then Claudio says that if you're good, you tell everybody; if you're great, they tell you.

Callis then says that Kota Ibushi and that he and Takeshita went to Tokyo, Japan with a camera crew. We then see Callis and Takeshita entering Ibushi's dojo and causing havoc. Ibushi soon shows up, but Takeshita and Callis are able to take Ibushi out with a kettlebell weight before choking him out and telling him he is not save from The Don Callis Family in Tokyo. Callis says his family has never been stronger and that Will Ospreay will win at WrestleDream, then Sammy Guevara says he is painted out to be a bad guy when he is the hero. He says that Jericho is the villain and that for four years, he held him back, but he was a champion and pay-per-view main eventer without him, and Jericho would keep clipping his wings. Sammy says he hoped Jericho would pass the torch to him, but Jericho was jealous, and he had to take the torch and become the star he was born to be. Callis then says they will take everything from Kenny Omega, Jericho and Ibushi until there is nothing left but tears.



We see backstage footage from last week at Collision where "Absolute" Ricky Starks says that he did not lose to "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson and that he survived. Wheeler Yuta shows up and says Starks did survive and apologizes for attacking him when he wanted to show Danielson respect, but Starks threatens to make sure he smacks him again if he gets in his face again. Yuta says he tried to be the bigger man, then calls Starks an entitled prick who whines and complains and says that he can get up everyday while Starks can't, then says that if he doesn't like that, they can settle things at WrestleDream. Starks walks away.

Nick Jackson beats "The Machine" Brian Cage and Claudio Castagnoli to earn a match against Rey Fenix for the AEW International Championship next week after Claudio hits Cage with the Ricola Bomb and Jackson sends Claudio out of the ring with a springboard hurricanrana before floating over into the pinfall on Cage to get the win and the title shot.



We hear from The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch). Dutch asks MJF and Adam Cole if they ache for a feeling they aim to feel, and Vincent and Dutch that they will take the ROH World Tag Team Championships from MJF and Adam Cole.

MJF and Adam Cole head to the ring. Adam Cole talks about how his ankle exploded and broke in three different places and how he tore ligaments. Unfortunately, he has to get surgery, and he will do everything under his power to get back as soon as humanly possible. As Adam Cole states that they will have to relinquish the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championships due to being unable to defend them, MJF shows his disgust at the thought of having to relinquish the title and says Cole would not be hurt if it were not for him. MJF says that he knows how much the tag team titles mean to him and that he will make sure they will be waiting for him when he gets back, then states that he will defend the titles alone in a two-on-one handicap match. Roderick Strong is then heard screaming for Adam Cole, and as The Kingdom wheel him out to the ramp, Roderick says he needs Adam more than ever and that it is an emergency. MJF reluctantly tells Adam Cole to do what he needs to do with Roderick and tells him that he will be waiting when he gets back. MJF reluctantly tells Adam Cole to do what he needs to do with Roderick and tells him that he will be waiting when he gets back. Both men hug it out, then Adam Cole leaves and heads to the back with The Kingdom and Roderick Strong. MJF is about to speak again when Bullet Club Gold ("Switchblade" Jay White, "Rock Hard" Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colton Gunn) shows up. "Switchblade" Jay White sends the rest of Bullet Club Gold to the back to speak to MJF in the ring face-to-face. After Jay White says he has called off the rest of Bullet Club Gold due to MJF being shook at their presence and to let MJF has his moment, MJF says Jay White must be smoking some "strong Colorado grass" before calling his goatee "pubic hair." MJF then says that he has been compared to many people, but as he kept wrestling, it never bothered him until he read "Sure, MJF is good, but he is no Jay White." The crowd chants "Bullshit" in response. He then realizes it only offended him because he is like a fine filet mignon and the show is all about him, and nobody is on his level. He says that while Jay White is talented, but he has convinced people they are on the same level when he is really like tofu. He says that tofu takes on the flavor of whatever one wants it to, but one must trick oneself into believing it has taste, and while Jay White has earned all the herbs and spices and opportunities and the keys to Bullet Club. He then says if he plucks it all away, he is left with nothing with boring, bland, tasteless tofu. MJF then says Jay White is trying to jump on his plate and take some of his flavor when he is nothing but hype and a mass-marketed vision of what someone in Japan thought was a top guy, and he advises him to leave his ring before someone writes "Jay White is good, but he's no MJF." Jay White says he has gotten the full MJF experience, but he admits that he is a bit disappointed and that MJF does not seem so elite when compared to him. He then says that the situation with Adam Cole is his fault and that if he ended his career, he and Cole would not have had a friendship, then blames the broken ankle on MJF. He also says that MJF's neck is worse after Samoa Joe, then says that he will ruin his life from a distance for a little while longer before telling him he must find a new level if he wants to keep him from taking the AEW World Championship from him. Jay White continues to brag about his recent accomplishments in MJF's face and states that he will be a truly elite champion when he takes the AEW World Championship from him and leaves MJF to be with the fans because he is their scumbag. Jay White then says MJF and the fans will have each other while he has the "Triple B" because it is still his era and MJF has gone soft and he knows it. MJF tells Jay White he has no idea what he is capable of and threatens to show him. MJF goes after Jay White, but Jay White retreats.



In backstage footage from earlier this week, Jim Ross interviews Darby Allin and Christian in a face-to-face meeting. Christian Cage says he has been TNT Championship for months now and that he has proved himself superior to Darby when he retained his championship in a three-way match. When asked what makes him think he can beat Darby in a two-out-of-three falls match, he calls Darby Allin's flukes and non-title and says Darby is nowhere near the man that he is and uses skateboards and tricks to his advantage to win. He says he has asked for this match to see what Darby can do when he actually has to wrestle, and that he hopes Darby is prepared to live the rest of his life as a failure before making fun of Darby's uncle's death. Darby says he is not afraid to die and that Christian will not beat him in Seattle, Washington. Christian tells Darby that if he feels so confident he can beat him, then he can bring his whole family and Nick Wayne's family. Darby says he knows Christian wants to take advantage of Nick Wayne and that he would not have the balls to face him if he did not have Luchasaurus. Christian tells Darby that he is not the mentor Nick Wayne needs because he hides behind face paint, but Darby says he does not need to hide behind anything. Christian then says he will be the face of TNT for a long time and that Darby had better get used to it.



Orange Cassidy beats Matt Jackson, Penta el Zero Miedo and Austin Gunn in a Fatal 4-Way Match.

Renee Paquette moderates a contract signing between Swerve Strickland and "Hangman" Adam Page for their match at WrestleDream. Swerve shows up first - and stops Prince Nana from dancing on the way to the ring - followed by Adam Page. It is reiterated that The Elite and The Mogul Embassy are barred from ringside for this signing and that security has surrounded the ring. Swerve says that he is impressed about the fire that Adam Page has shown recently, but says it is too late and that they are four days out for their match and tells Adam Page that he is walking into his house, which he says is a lion's den, and that they are both complete opposites from each other and asks what a farmer is to a mogul, what a cowboy is to an outlaw and what a buckshot is to a killshot. Adam Page says that Swerve had words that stung in the moment, but after thinking upon them, he thanks Swerve for uttering them before mentioning his recent accomplishments and how every time he wanted to smile, a cloud came back and it started to rain. He says it pissed him off because he could not do anything about it, and that for as long as it rained on him, he dared not open his umbrella. Adam Page says the storm is now over with and he is still here, and through the downpour, something washed out of him and he realized the fans deserve the best of him and he deserves the best of himself, which he says Swerve will get before signing. Swerve laughs as the fans chant "Cowboy Shit," and says it was both beautiful and more pathetic than "Russell Davis and the Denver Broncos last week" before saying Adam Page could have been anyone and that he will take his position from him at WrestleDream. Adam Page says Swerve wants his spot and could have been the first black AEW World Championship a long time ago if he did, and while they could talk about hypotheticals, he has knocked every opportunity he has had out of the park. He says that Swerve should want his spot, but he does not have what it takes to fill his boots. Swerve slaps Page, then signs the contract. Page then stabs Swerve in the hand with a pen, and security has to step in. We then suddenly go backstage where four masked men in clad all in black with a black-clad man in a devil's mask leading the beatdown of "Switchblade" Jay White before grabbing the camera to forcefully end the show.

After John Silver says The Dark Order want the Trios Championships. When Bowens asks why The Dark Order should have a shot at the Trios Championships, Evil Uno says they have worked four years to get to where they are and that they are sick of good things happening to bad people like The Acclaimed, whom he says are as cookie cutter as they come and are somehow champions.

When Jericho uncovers the painting, it is a painting of Callis holding Jericho's severed head. Jericho confronts Callis over the painting, thinking that Callis did not expect him to join him. Callis says the painting was a mistake, but Jericho demands the truth out of Callis. Callis admits he did not think Jericho would say yes because of his massive ego. Callis says that Jericho has always made everything all about him, and calls him the greatest of egomaniac and "a narcissistic egomaniac who does not know what is good for him" and undeserving of joining the Don Callis family. Jericho mentions that three years ago, Callis was not part of the business and nobody cares, and that Callis has lost everything and messed up every personal relationship in his life because he is a low-life, a worm, a piece of trash and "an asshole."
