 Will Ospreay Interrupted AEW American Champion MJF; Ospreay def. Lance ArcherMJF's mic work wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but even an average promo from MJF is still very good, so this was a solid segment. Ospreay wasn't able to get his hands on MJF, so it will be interesting to see if they get physical before their rematch at All In. Meanwhile, Ospreay vs. Archer was extremely predictable, but Archer is obviously talented and thus this was an enjoyable opener for what it was.

 #AskGSM is a weekly Q&A video where I, Graham "GSM" Matthews, answer fan questions from Facebook, Twitter and YouTube in regards to the world of wrestling. Nothing is off limits, and this week's edition touches upon a variety of topics including:
 WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn def. The Meta-Four (Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend)I wouldn't have predicted Meta-Four to take the titles regardless, but they would've had a better chance of winning had it not already been announced that Fyre and Dawn will be defending against Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill on Friday's SmackDown. That made it pretty predictable they weren't losing before then. This was decent, but I can't say I cared. Are all of Meta-Four supposed to be babyfaces now? At least Ethan Page and Oro Mensah furthered their feud afterward before their NXT Championship matchup for next week was made official later on.
 Baron Von Storm and Jax Dane def. The Southern Six (Alex Taylor and "Thrillbilly" Silas Mason) by DisqualificationSouthern Six went from winning the Crockett Cup to facing Storm and Dane for no real reason. I'm not overly high on the heel repackaging of Storm to begin with just because I find it boring, but putting him and Dane up against two fellow heels seemed like a strange decision. There was nothing wrong with the match itself, but the disqualification finish was lame. This felt like a waste of time.
 Seth "Freakin" Rollins Mediated the Face-Off Between CM Punk and Drew McIntyreWe've heard a lot from these two since January, but this was a strong final verbal exchange between Punk and McIntyre. Both delivered their promos exceptionally well and I liked that it didn't end in the usual brawl. Rollins played his role well per usual and they certainly teased that he'll factor into the finish in some way as the special guest referee. While I wish Rollins had taken the segment more seriously, he did add a different dynamic to the intense energy McIntyre and Punk were bringing.
