Claudio Castagnoli and Jon Moxley turned against Bryan Danielson at AEW All Out, suffocating him with a plastic bag after Danielson retained his AEW World Title.
Bryan Danielson defeated Jack Perry to keep the AEW Title and his full-time career. Killswitch attacked Danielson after the match, and Christian Cage came down to the ring with his Casino Gauntlet contract in hand. He was cut off by Jon Moxley, who was quickly joined by Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta.
It looked like a Blackpool Combat Club reunion, but Claudio hit an uppercut on Danielson, and Moxley suffocated him with a plastic bag. Yuta tried to intervene but PAC held him back. Marina Shafir also joined in to ensure the attack would continue.

Danielson was given oxygen and helped to the back after the attack.
The finish of the AEW World Title bout saw Danielson hit a busaiku knee after stomping Perry's head.
The match did have some interference as The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson & Nicholas Jackson) interfered when the referee was knocked out. The Bucks delivered a TK Driver to Danielson, and went for the EVP trigger, but Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta made the save and ran off the Bucks.
