A brawl between Will Ospreay and Jon Moxley turns into a beatdown for The Death Riders (Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir) only for Alex Windsor (Will Ospreay's real life fiancée) and members of United Empire (Francisco Akira, Great-O-Khan, Callum Newman, Henare) to show up from out of a black SUV to make it a five-on-five brawl. The brawl makes its way to the ring, where Callum Newman brawls with until Marina Shafir gets to him and chokes him out. Great-O-Khan, Henare and Francisco Akira soon make it to the ring, and after United Empire gets the upper hand, Moxley and Ospreay go at it again. Moxley gets Ospreay in a sleeper hold, but Ospreay rolls out and Callum Neuman hits Moxley with a double foot stomp from the top rope. The Death Riders retreat through the crowd. Ospreay tells Moxley that he used his head like he told him to, then says that they are not done and that in twenty minutes, they will create some chaos in Canada when United Empire faces The Death Riders.

Backstage, we hear from Don Callis, who says that "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher is injured and out of action, which has thrown a wrench in his family's plans for the TNT Championship, which is now vacated and will now be up for grabs in a Casino Gauntlet Match at Dynasty. He says that his plans for the title are now off as a result, but he has a pivot that will blow everyone's minds. As for "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada and "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita and when they will fight, he admits he enjoys when people do not get along, but states that he calls the shots before mentioning that Takeshita will be in action with Andrade el Idolo and Mark Davis against Darby Allin, Bandido and "Jungle" Jack Perry. He hopes that his family wins so he can take the money and go out on the town and party like it is 1984.

The Don Callis Family ("The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita, Andrade el Idolo, Mark Davis) beat Darby Allin, Bandido and "Jungle" Jack Perry in a trios match. (Bandido replaces Brody King, who was originally scheduled for the match but is replaced due to personal reasons.) Early in the match, Andrade heads to the back, and Darby Allin grabs the microphone and calls him out, telling him to get back here, stop playing games, and stop being "Don Callis' little bitch." Andrade comes back with Don Callis, who guests on commentary for the rest of the match. After the match, Takeshita and Andrade stomp on Jack Perry. Bandido also gets stomped on, and Andrade points at a poster for Dynasty while confronting Darby before kicking him in the groin. Don Callis then gouges Jack Perry's eyes before The Young Bucks show up and give Davis and Takeshita a beatdown. Don Callis then gouges Jack Perry's eyes before The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) show up and give Davis and Takeshita a beatdown. El Clon, Hechicero and Lance Archer rush into the ring, but they get easily dispatched by The Young Bucks before they hit the EVP-Trigger on Mark Davis. "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada shows up before The Young Bucks can hit the Meltzer Driver on Davis and stops the move cold, then he and Takeshita stomp The Young Bucks before confronting and shoving each other. This soon leads to the both of them exchanging blows, and the entire Don Callis Family has to break up the brawl. The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz, Dezmond Xavier, Myron Reed) soon show up and dive over the top rope to take out the entire family, save for Okada, who just points and laughs at Takeshita. The Rascalz and The Young Bucks get the last word when Myron Reed leaps over the top rope and takes out Okada.

Chris Jericho heads to the ring. In his hands in a black clipboard with a purple AEW logo on the back, with purple sides. Jericho says he meant it when he said he was home, then says he will make it official by signing his new AEW contract in the ring, just 100 miles away from where he made his professional wrestling debut at the Moose Hall in Ponoka, Alberta in 1990. He says that he and All Elite Wrestling have made history since 2019 and that he has taken risks since he became part of it - some of them more successful than others - and that all he cares about is building AEW because he loves pro wrestling and he loves the company. Before Jericho can sign the contract, however, The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) suddenly shows up. Ricochet announces that "Canada freakin' sucks" before stating that The Demand come in peace, and that Bishop Kaun would have already pulled the trigger if they did not. He then tells Ricochet to do them a favor and "just don't," telling him not to sign the contract as he has been rusty after being gone and signing with Fozzy for a year, which he says is "probably how [Jericho] got his abs back." Ricochet admits that Jericho has made history in AEW and has accomplished much, then says that AEW's attendance and ratings are up because of "the rise of Ricochet." He then says he is here to tell Jericho all of this because of how he respects him, and that he is speaking for everyone here when he says that nobody wants him in AEW. He then tells Jericho to pack it up, get out of his ring, get back on his cruise ship and never come back before he gets himself hurt, poking his hat into Jericho's chest on the last request. Jericho says "Wow...you really are bald," then says he respects Ricochet before stating "I really don't give a shit what you think." He signs the contract, which lets him pick his return opponent for Dynasty, and Jericho admits that while he could choose anybody, he has some things to do and decisions to make, which is all done in a second. He then removes the black part of the clipboard to reveal the word "Jericho," then says Ricochet made the list for being bald, coming out in a fancy sweatsuit and being around when he is in need of an opponent. Ricochet then becomes Jericho's opponent at Dynasty.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews The Don Callis Family. Don Callis announces that at Dynasty, Andrade el Idolo will not just beat Darby Allin, but put him in the dirt and earn a World title shot. He says that with "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher hurt, he has an even bigger match: The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) against "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada. Takeshita does not want to do this, but Don Callis says he is the only coach here and that they need to come together for Fletcher and beat The Young Bucks. Takeshita agrees on the condition that he gets a match with Okada for the International Championship. Callis says that match will happen at Double or Nothing if they can work together for one night, get along like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, and beat The Young Bucks. As Takeshita and Okada shake hands at Callis' behest, Okada says he is Jordan while Takeshita is Pippen, and this almost starts a brawl.

Tommaso Ciampa beats Mascara Dorada to enter the Casino Gauntlet Match for the TNT Championship at Dynasty at #1.

Connors says there were only two of them last week, but the gang is back together now. Gabe Kidd says that The Conglomeration will be taken out and that they will come for Mistico and JetSpeed ("The Jet" Kevin Knight and "Speedball" Mike Bailey) as well as their gold.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews "The Toxic Spider" Thekla. Thekla says she does not want to hear about Jamie Hayter being champion one more time - threatening to take Lexy for a nice seafood dinner before dragging her to a strip club and breaking all of her fingers if she does - then tells Hayter that the game has changed. She says that Hayter was only champion because she was not here, and that as long as she is AEW Women's World Champion, she will never be champion again. Thekla says she took Hayter out first because she was the easiest, and that Hayter is coming back because she is "the dumbest bitch alive." He then says at Dynasty, Hayter will be "the dumbest bitch dead."

Adam Copeland and Christian Cage head to the ring. Copeland says their feud with FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) started all over pettiness, with FTR saying that were in his shadow and were nothing more than "glorified henchmen" for him. Copeland says this is the hand of reality slapping their faces. Copeland says he will not shrink himself to fit into FTR's world and that FTR are not big enough for his, and that he and Christian will reclaim their place at the top of the mountain and become the fans' AEW World Tag Team Champions. Christian tells FTR to sit down and shut their mouths wherever they are so he can conduct his business. He says FTR has been busy as they have not only pissed off Copeland, but the entire country of Canada. He says that as "everybody's favorite father figure," FTR have been so naughty that he has been forced to pay a visit to both of their mothers, and by that, he means that he "banged them both." He also says that he will visit Stokely Hathaway's mother as well, and when he does, he will do it as one-half of the tag team champions. FTR and Stokely Hathaway show up, but all of a sudden, Christian and Copeland are attacked from behind by RPG Vice (Rocky "Azucar" Romero and Trent Beretta) , who have come out of the crowd. This leads to a 4-on-2 beatdown. Christian Cage briefly gets the upper hand, but he gets shoved by Cash Wheeler into one of the tag team titles, which is held by Stokely. Meanwhile, RPG Vice drive a metal folding chair into Copeland's head. Dax then wraps a chair around Christian's left hand, and Stokely steals Christian's Rolex before Cash stomps the chair from the top rope, injuring Christian's left arm.

Backstage, Darby Allin says that despite seemingly caring about nothing, he cares too much, and says that he has to win the big one and be AEW World Champion. He says that Andrade el Idolo does not truly understand what he has gotten himself into, and that he needs this win more than anything in a world that says he is not enough when he has always been enough.

United Empire (Will Ospreay, Francisco Akira, Callum Newman, Henare) beat The Death Riders (Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, PAC, Daniel Garcia) in Chaos in Canada. After the match, Will Ospreay goes after Jon Moxley to try to end his career, but the rest of The Death Riders save Moxley.

We see a video package for Kenny Omega in anticipation of Kenny Omega vs. MJF for the AEW World Championship at Dynasty.

Tony Schiavone introduces Kenny Omega to the ring. Kenny Omega talks about how he drove a car 14 hours from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to take part in the city's independent scene 25 years ago. He also mentions that "Speedball" Mike Bailey stopped him from playing into MJF's hands and ruining their World Championship match, and says that his nicknames are not just words, but things people have said about him. He considers those nicknames a responsibility and a weight upon his shoulders when he wrestles, and says that MJF runs his mouth but cannot deliver while he himself takes wrestling and recreates its image. It should have been MJF, not him, who should have gotten mad because all MJF can do is talk, because he cannot do what Omega and a few others can do, but he was the one who lost his cool. Omega says it was all on him to save the legacy of AEW of being where the best can wrestle the best, then says it is not his responsibility and legacy alone and that it belongs to the fans as well. He says that the fans deserve a champion who wears the World Championship with pride and goes down as one of the greatest of all time, and that it will not be MJF if he feels as good as he is and turns his weaknesses into strengths. Omega says it has gone from getting better and recovering to getting stronger, and Omega promises that he will take the World Championship and right the wrongs that MJF has committed in AEW. MJF shows up and takes Omega's words as thought that he is better than him, saying it makes sense for Omega and the fans to talk himself up, because deep down, they are all "scared shitless" that this might be Omega's last shot at the AEW World Championship. MJF says it will be Omega's last shot and that the clock is ticking on Omega's career, then brings up Omega saying he lost in their last match because he was at 75%. He wants to know what Omega's excuse will be when he beats him again. MJF admits he loves more than anything that in their match at Dynasty, Omega will find out that he is not on his level and that the fans' god will fall while the devil will rise to the throne where he belongs. Omega says he learns a little more about MJF every week that they speak like this, and that the AEW World Championship means a lot to MJF to the point that he would shake the challenger's hand, as this is the last time they can meet respectfully like men. Kenny Omega offers to shake MJF's hand and let bygones be bygones before an incredible main event, and MJF tosses the microphone away only to refuse, turn around and go for a cheap shot and eat a knee before he can land it. Omega then removes the Dynamite Diamond Ring from MJF's ring finger and says he saw this coming a mile away, then says that their match will not be like it was up until now and that it will end with him bidding the fans adieu.

Tony Schiavone is in the ring to interview Prince Nana and Swerve Strickland. Swerve talks about how he was on the shelf for three months or surgery, rehabbing and rebuilding into the most dangerous version of himself that anyone has ever seen to become AEW World Champion again. He says that when he was champion, he made business simple and backed up what he said. Swerve then addresses Samoa Joe, saying that Joe is now ducking him because he beat him for the title during his first reign and got the biggest moment off of Samoa Joe while also making history. He then says he has to go through Opps Dojo students like it is Dynasty Warriors just to get through to The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, Hook, Katsuyori Shibata) and take back the World title, and that Joe will once again fall to him. Swerve then addresses "Hangman" Adam Page, admitting that while they have not always seen eye-to-eye, there has never been a better rivalry than theirs. He knows that Hangman wants another desperado to ride along The Opps, and says he will back Hangman up at Winter is Coming for one night only before they have a very serious conversation. Suddenly, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander interrupts, saying he could not stand it anymore and that Swerve was spouting "lies and half-truths," and says that while the fans love Swerve and that Swerve was a great champion, this is Don Callis' house now. He says that since Swerve has been gone, The Don Callis Family has increased its grip on AEW and that it is not loosening that grip anytime soon. He also says that Don Callis is not here tonight because he would not be caught dead in Ohio, then reminds Swerve that "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada is the one who injured his knee and took him out for three months and states that he is surprised that Swerve is not seeking revenge. He also takes exception to Swerve thinking he can walk back into AEW after three or four months and just get a World title shot, then brags about beating Will Ospreay and Kota Ibushi, even going so far as to brag about injuring Ibushi to the point that his career was put into question after he broke his femur. He also brags about facing Kenny Omega and winning one million dollars for The Don Callis Family. Swerve asks Alexander what he wants, and Alexander says that if anyone deserves a title shot, it is him, and that they should fight over who gets a World title shot. He says that "the freaks and furries" in tonight's crowd do not deserve this match, and Swerve proposes they have their match at Winter is Coming. As Swerve threatens to beat Alexander's ass, he is clipped at the right knee from behind by Katsuyori Shibata. Alexander tells Swerve he will see him next week.

We hear from Eddie Kingston backstage. Eddie says that he has been wrestling for 25 years and dreaming of being a wrestler since he was 9 years old, and that he now has an opportunity to beat Samoa Joe for the AEW World Championship. He says Samoa Joe cannot get in his head because he is in his own head every day and because he cares too much for professional wrestling and for AEW and feels that some younger guys are going down a road that he does not respect and is not good for professional wrestling. He says that AEW was supposed to be different and that people were supposed to be rewarded for winning, working hard and being the best, but when he came back, everything changed. He says that he finds Samoa Joe disgusting, as he was supposed to lead and is now doing what he used to hate. Eddie says he wants change, and that he has the opportunity not only to beat Samoa Joe, but to show the younger guys that they can do things the right way and do what AEW was supposed to be.

Joe tells Shibata to "get the scrubs," and Shibata leaves and soon returns with members of the Opps Dojo as Joe commences his championship celebration, saying that everything went to plan and he became AEW World Champion. Joe then introduces a video package that focuses on Hook and also shows his reunion with The Opps at Full Gear before telling the fans that they can have a champion who can be called the greatest in the industry. He then brings out Hook, calling him "the lynchpin of this grand endeavor," and Hook heads to the ring as footage of his betrayal of Hangman plays repeatedly on the video screen as his entrance theme plays. Hook says the fans are too stupid to realize they are seeing the greatest second-generation wrestler that they have ever seen, then Swerve shows up in the crowd with a chain wrapped around him with Hangman showing up, having a shot, grabbing a beer and joining him. The Opps Dojo run into the crowd after them, but Hangman and Swerve easily drop everyone in their path before entering the ring.

Callis says that he remembers when Hangman took the AEW World Championship from him when he beat Kenny Omega for it and that he has waited to get it back, and he has found someone who is bigger, faster and better than Omega. He says that there is nothing he can do to Fletcher, saying there is no one else like him, and that the World Championship is coming to the family. Hangman says he is glad they are in agreement that Fletcher does not need help on Saturday, as he and everyone is sick and tired of half the roster getting involved in World title matches and he has no problem putting the rest of Don Callis' family into the ground. He says he is doing this because he sees the potential in what Fletcher could be, as he is 26 years old and could be in AEW for decades and be someone others can look to one day to carry AEW into the future, and if he wants to be that, he will have to earn that worthiness.Hangman tells Fletcher that in the contract, it is written that if Callis interferes, he will not only lose the match, but he will be stripped of the TNT Championship as well. Callis almost loses it. Fletcher says that does not scare him and that Hangman could have put anything else in the contract, and that he still would have signed it. He says that this changes nothing and that he is still the best to step into an AEW ring. He states that on Saturday, he will fulfill his destiny when he becomes AEW World Championship, for he has become better than Hangman has ever been. He says AEW does not need Hangman or Omega anymore, and that it needs him. Fletcher says he will do Hangman a favor by letting him ride into the sunset, as both the championship and the company belongs to him now. Fletcher signs the contract. Hangman says he knows how it feels to be in Fletcher's shoes, for he has been there, yet Fletcher does not know it will feel the morning after, as it will crush, ruin and all but take every shred of confidence out of him. He is sure of it that Fletcher's best will not be enough and that what Fletcher does with that feeling will be what defends him, and tells Fletcher not to disappoint him in the long time that follows. Hangman signs the contract. Fletcher then stands up and hopes that by now, Hangman knows that he is a man of his word, and that there would be no physicality at this signing or interference in their match, but he promises he will leave a double champion, and tonight, he will leave Hangman beaten, bloodied and unable to walk out of this arena on his own two feet.

Stokely says that there will be a $100,000 fine if Copeland touches Dax or Cash and a $500,000 fine and a cancelled match if he touches Stokely, then says that Copeland and Christian will disappoint and allows FTR to speak first. Cash Wheeler talks about how he and Copeland became friends and how Copeland became his mentor, then says that Copeland opened the door for him only to kick it down. He says that in the last ten years, he and Dax have become living legends, then they helped Copeland back into the business only for Dynamite to become "The Cope Show" and for them to do all the work as supporting cast. After Cash says that he and Dax will take that away from him for good, Dax talks about how Copeland and Christian were once the best in the world only because "two mediocre teams" carried them to relevancy. Dax says that in the last eleven years, they have carried tag team wrestling on their backs and have become the best in the business as well as one of one, and says that this could be a dream match, but this is the hand they are dealt. Copeland yanks the microphone away and tells Stokely that he has no hoes and to keep Beth Phoenix's name out of his mouth, then says he helped FTR and expected nothing in return. He says that the only reason that FTR is not in the spotlight because the fans did not want them in it and wanted him in it instead, and while FTR is the best right now, he and Christian were here for 25 years and made tag team wrestling important again. Copeland then says that at All Out, two of the best teams will face each other in his and Christian's hometown, and when FTR is dragged into the deep end, they will understand why they are the better team. Christian says that $100,000 is a lot of money and that $500,000 would get Stokely some hoes, but at the risk of sounding like an asshole, $500,000 means nothing to him because he is rich. Copeland and Christian punch FTR in the face. Security gets in the ring only to get laid out, then both teams brawl until FTR roll out of the ring. Dax's nose is notably busted open afterwards.

She says that if one is not willing to put their life on the line in the ring, then "[they aren't] shit." She then says she faces two others who are worthy of her mantle, and if this is the end of her reign, then it has been the honor of her life. She then says that if her opponents want to beat her, then they should burn her body to the ground, pack her ashes into a pipe and take a big, fat huff, as nobody can get them as high as she can. Jamie Hayter shows up and says that she is not a spotlight and tells Toni Storm to keep it, as Toni will not look as good without her title. She then tells Toni that he does not forget and that Toni invited her to this, then says she hits hard. Kris Statlander says that she may not have much of a claim to the Women's World Championship after not wrestling for it for four years, then says Toni and Hayter do not have the ovaries and cannot beat her. As Toni tells Statlander and Hayter to prepare for their match, "The Toxic Spider" Thekla shows up and outshines the three of them on her way to the ring for the next match.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 16, 2025

Tony Schiavone introduces "Hangman" Adam Pearce into the ring to start tonight's show. The fans chant "You deserve it!" before Hangman says the fans are missing the point, saying the fans deserve this, not him, as they are the ones who needed, demanded, and supported AEW. He says that the stars of AEW do this because of the fans, then reiterates that the fans deserve this as well as to see the AEW World Championship as it held by someone with more gratitude than one will ever know. Hangman says that he did not just walk into a battle; he walked into a war to free the World Championship that lasted nine months. He says that some who fought this war have not come out the same. Hangman thanks Orange Cassidy, "Switchblade" Jay White, Adam Copeland, The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, "The Wrestler" Katusyori Shibata), "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson, Darby Allin, and especially Will Ospreay, who he says reminded him of why he loved wrestling and paid the price for this moment. The fans then chant "Whose house? Swerve's house!" Hangman says that if he is going to be the champion and man that he is, he must thanks Swerve Strickland, even if he is not sure if he helped for him, himself or AEW. Hangman calls last weekend a rollercoaster of highs and lows, and while he shed both blood and tears, he has a wife and two children who love him alongside millions who can look up to and respect him. He then proclaims himself "the champion of the fuckin' world."

"The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher beats Mascara Dorada.

In backstage footage from earlier today, Renee Paquette interviews The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson). Matthew says they are just looking for their locker room when they run into Marina Shafir, who does not even want to talk to them, before finding their own locker room and getting mocked by Ricochet and Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona). Don Callis shows up and sympathizes with The Young Bucks and says that despite their history, they can do some business. Matthew says they will not join his family, but at the same time, they are open to working with him.

In backstage footage from All In Texas, we hear from The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, MJF). MVP says he knew they would stay tag team champions and states that they have not been threatened yet, and begs for a legendary tag team to challenge them and take the titles. MVP says he is happy that "Hangman" Adam Page won, as there is nothing to prove against Jon Moxley and everything to prove against Hangman. He says that he is the best, not Hangman, and that he does not need his guaranteed world title shot to beat him. As he declares that title shot a "break glass in case of emergency" plan, he says that while Hangman is at peace, he is the embodiment of pressure and that he has no problem being the bad guy, as nice guys finish last.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match. Also before the next match, The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) come out to their usual entrance only for it to be replaced with their names in Comic Sans cycling through the color spectrum on top of unflattering footage with their theme music completely absent. Ring announcer Justin Roberts also rubs in the fact that The Young Bucks are no longer Executive Vice Presidents, as does the pre-match chyron.

Hechicero, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander and The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) beat "Speedball" Mike Bailey, "The Jet" Kevin Knight, Bandido and Brody King in an All-Star 8-Man Tag Match with a sleeper from Hechicero to Bandido.

Adam Copeland heads to the ring. After the fans sing along to his entrance theme, Copeland states that he did not return to save Christian Cage, saying that he is an asshole who has tried to make his life miserable since he showed up in AEW. He says that when Christian Cage cashed in his Casino Gauntlet title shot despite The Patriarchy telling him not to do it, everything crumbled around him, and that he does not blame Nick Wayne for turning on him. He also says that when he warned Christian of this, Christian's ego was so huge that he refused to listen. He hopes that Christian is pulling his skull out of his ass, but he is not holding his breath. Copeland then addresses FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and talks about their history in the last five years when he was cleared to compete again, as well as how FTR started complaining two weeks after Rated FTR was started. He says that FTR put him on the shelf for 4 months that he does not have after doing this for 33 years, and that he is he back to end FTR. Stokely Hathaway then shows up with three security guards. Stokely puts security between himself and Copeland and says FTR read Copeland like a book, then calls Copeland's weapon Spike so much of a liability that AEW, Tony Khan and Warner Media received three anonymous e-mails complaining about Copeland's behavior. He states that if Copeland interferes in FTR's matches or attack FTR, he will be fired. He also states that FTR is not scared of Copeland and is currently focused on the AEW World Tag Team Championships. Stokely then tells Copeland to "go find a hobby and leave FTR alone," and Copeland reminds Stokely that he said nothing about getting near him. Stokely sends security at Copeland, but they get knocked down, and the rest of security runs away. Copeland then hits Stokely with a Spear before telling him that he will get all of them. (One of the security guards Stokely pushes into Copeland's path is independent wrestler Kevin Ku.)

Backstage, we hear from Mark Briscoe, who says that MJF ducked him like a bitch in the men's Casino Gauntlet Match. He says that is now just getting started between himself and MJF, who has only experienced a portion of "Dem Boys." He says that MJF made a mistake conjuring up the other side of "Dem Boys" and that he will make MJF pay for his sins.

"The Toxic Spider" Thekla beats Queen Aminata, Kris Statlander and Willow Nightingale in a $100,000 4-Way Fight after Willow and Statlander brawl their way to the back before Skye Blue shows up and distracts referee Aubrey Edwards so that Julia Hart can show up and spit green mist in Aminata's face.

"Timeless" Toni Storm shows up on the balcony. Toni Storm announces that she is still AEW Women's World Champion before thanking Mercedes Moné for going all in with her. She says they did everything they set out to do, despite warning Mercedes that she would eat her alive if she made a fatal mistake. She declares that Mercedes Moné was "delicious" and that if she wants to come back for seconds, the buffet is always open. Toni also mentions that Luther was injured in the line of duty and that it requires reattachment surgery. She then proclaims that her tits are pointing to the future and that there are plenty of people with knives and that she ought to be careful. She states that the AEW Women's World Championship is "the big one" before Athena and Billie Starkz appear on the video screen. Athena says that soon, she will become "the forever AEW Women's World Championship" and reminds Toni Storm that Mina Shirakawa is hurt after she got in her way. She says that there will be nobody left to save Toni when she cashes in her Casino Gauntlet title shot. After entertaining when and where she could end Toni's world title reign, Athena says it is time to stop looking for happy endings, as her demise and murder are here. Toni is more than eager to accept Athena's challenge.

Backstage, we hear from Kip Sabian, "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne and Mother Wayne. Sabian says he chose Christian Cage, and says he took bullet after bullet when Christian Cage might as well had been pulling the trigger. He says they are no longer under a patriarch, but beside a matriarch. Mother Wayne says Nick and Sabian are her boys now and that Nick is her prodigy. Nick Wayne tells Christian Cage that he is past his expiration date to the point that he became a liability to them, and that he realized that months ago when Christian Cage strayed from the path and decided to do his own thing in becoming AEW World Champion. He says that Christian loved to get in his face and question how many world championship he has won when he is only 20 years old, and that the real question is how many world title he is going to win and what else he could do in his career. He says that Christian created this monster, and now he and the rest of AEW have to live with him as the new face of TNT and AEW, now and forever.

Don Callis introduces "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, who now has a new entrance, before the next match.

"The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada quickly beats an unnamed opponent. After the match, Okada addresses Swerve Strickland, saying that he screwed The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) before calling him a bitch. Swerve Strickland and Prince Nana show up, then Swerve tells Okada "Yeah, I did that. What you gonna do about it, bitch?"

"Hangman" Adam Page, Mark Briscoe and Powerhouse Hobbs beat The Death Riders (Jon Moxkey, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta) with a jackknife pin from Hangman to Moxley. After the match, The Death Riders go on the attack, but all of a sudden, the arena goes dark, and Darby Allin is seen in the luxury box. Hangman hits Moxley with the Buckshot Lariat as The Death Riders retreat.

Here are the highlights for tonight's show!
