- Renee Paquette interviews Mina Shirakawa. She hoped no one would get hurt in the match between Mariah and Toni.

* Winner enters Casino Gauntlet first at AEW All In: Orange Cassidy def. Roderick Strong and Kyle O’Reilly

Post-match: Kyle O'Reilly originally looked very frustrated but eventually congratulated Orange Cassidy.

Renee Paquette conducted the face-to-face segment between Claudio Castagnoli and Kazuchika Okada. Claudia says that he has always felt like the Continental Title was meant for him. He said he's going to make this title shot count. Okada said he would hold on to this title until the Continental Classic. Claudio said he wanted the real Okada next week, not the Elite's lackey.

- Renee Paquette interviewed Christian Cage and The Patriarchy (Shayna Wayne, Killswitch, and Nick Wayne). Christian talks about wanting to hold every Championship until he's holding everything simultaneously, and he also says he won't be there on AEW Rampage when Nick Wayne fights Kip Sabian.

- HOOK is interviewed in the ring by Tony Schiavone. He wants to face Chris Jericho for the FTW Title right then and there, but Jericho comes out and agrees to defend the title at Wembley Stadium. This will be HOOK's last shot at the belt, and he has to face big Bill next week, too.

* Swerve Strickland def. Wheeler Yuta by way of referee stoppage.

- Strickland hit Wheeler with three House Calls and started pummeling him in the head with his fists, forcing the referee to stop things. After the match, Bryan Danielson immediately hit the ring to stop any further damage to Wheeler. Strickland ok the opportunity to cut a promo saying that he was going to cripple Danielson in Wembley in front of his family, specifically mentioning his daughter. As Danielson continued to check on Wheeler, Swerve hit the ring and dropped Danielson with a House Call. The show ended with Strickland doing the "Yes!" pose.
