- With Hangman Page on commentary, CM Punk defeated John Silver with a Buckshot Lariat. After the match, Punk got on the mic and said that he doesn't understand why Page dislikes him. Regardless, at Double or Nothing, Punk plans on making Page shake his hand.
- After losing very quickly to Tony Nese, Danhausen was saved by HOOK from a post-match beatdown. It was later announced that HOOKHAUSEN would face Nese and "Menacing Mike Sterling" (Smart Mark Sterling) during the Double or Nothing Buy-In.
- MJF released a propaganda video mimicking Dark Side of the Ring to summarize his feud with Wardlow. Afterward, the two met in the ring and signed a contract to face each other at Double or Nothing. Before that can happen, though, Wardlow will be whipped 10 times and must defeat Shawn Spears in a Steel Cage. If Wardlow loses at Double or Nothing, however, he is never allowed to sign a contract with AEW.
What is this, a propaganda video by @the_MJF against @realwardlow?!
