 Jon Moxley Called Out Darby AllinThis was a logical follow-up to Allin preventing The Death Riders from getting involved in Moxley's match against Adam Page on Dynamite and preventing him from regaining the AEW World Championship. Thankfully, he kept it short and sweet and didn't drag on for too long. It led to a show-long storyline with Allin almost killing Moxley at the end of the night (yes, seriously).

 TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater def. Jason Hotch and Cedric Alexander in a Three-Way MatchThis was incredibly random, especially since Hotch and Alexander did nothing (to my knowledge) to earn an opportunity at the TNA X-Division Championship. It was fun while it lasted, but it was way too short. I suppose that was by design since it was subsequently announced that, because Alexander wasn't pinned here, it'll be Slater vs. Alexander one-on-one for the title at Emergence.
 The Conglomeration (Hologram and Tomohiro Ishii) def. MxM CollectionIt's mind-boggling to me that The Conglomeration still exists in any form at this point. The faction was ridiculous to begin with, but I guess it gives Hologram and Ishii more of a reason to team (even though Hologram should be in contention for a championship by now seeing as how he's still undefeated the last I checked). This was a nice opener with the usual MxM Collection antics.
 The Young Bucks def. The Outrunners in an AEW World Tag Team Championship No. 1 Contender's Tournament Quarterfinal MatchThe Bucks getting a jobber entrance was genuinely funny, similar to the entrance they got two weeks ago. If they're supposed to be down on their luck at the moment, it would've made more sense for them to lose here. Yes, I realize it's The Outrunners, but they're still over with the audience and it would've been a cool upset. Oh well. It was an enjoyable opener, nonetheless. The post-match angle also involving Kazuchika Okada and Swerve Strickland set them up for a match for the AEW Unified Championship at Forbidden Door.
 Jaida Parker def. Jazmyn NyxNyx is obviously still a work in progress, but she isn't going to get better without reps, so this was a necessary match for her to have. Granted, there wasn't much to it, but it was perfectly passable while it lasted. More importantly, by beating one of Jacy Jane's minions, this got Parker one step closer to challenging for the NXT Women's Championship.
