In the end, MJF was able to unseat the champion in controversial fashion. The closing stretch of the bout featured Ospreay coming to close to nailing MJF with the Tiger Driver 91'. After refusing to hit the move, Ospreay was shoved into referee Bryce Remsburg by MJF. MJF then took advantage of the situation and clocked Ospreay in the head with his Dynamite Diamond Ring. MJF then put one arm over Ospreay to cover him as the sixty minute time limit nearly expired.

As a result, Ospreay's reign with the AEW International Championship comes to an end at the 52 day mark. Also, MJF joins Jon Moxley as only the second person to hold both the World and International Championships in AEW.
