AJ Lee, Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss def. Becky Lynch, Nia Jax, Lash Legend and WWE Women's Tag Team Champions The Kabuki Warriors in a WarGames MatchFor what it's worth, we did not get the shark cages for the WarGames matches on this show, but that may have been because it took place in a stadium (not to mention there was no way Brock Lesnar was going to be stuck in a cage with multiple wrestlers waiting to be released). This was a good WarGames match from the women and I'm glad they didn't go overboard with the plunder. Lee submitting Lynch was logical to further that feud, but are they going to wait until WrestleMania 42 to go one-on-one? That's too far away in my opinion, so it should happen well before then.

Jey Uso def. Rusev in a The Last Time Is Now Tournament Quarterfinal MatchApparently this marked the first time these two have ever gone one-on-one. That didn't make much of a difference as it wasn't the most exciting encounter. There wasn't anything egregiously wrong with it, mind you, but the crowd didn't seem to care and I don't have any desire to see either Uso or Rusev be John Cena's final opponent. Whatever happened to Uso teasing a heel turn or at least more of an aggressive edge?
Shane Taylor Promotions (ROH Pure Champion Lee Moriarty, Anthony Ogogo and ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champion Shane Taylor) def. The Dark Order (Evil Uno, John Silver and Alex Silver)I thought there was a small chance Dark Order would win by pinning Ogogo (who we rarely see wrestle on ROH TV these days) to earn an opportunity at the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship at Final Battle, but thankfully, that didn't happen. This was your standard six-man tag team match. As I've said before, I couldn't care less about Dark Order at this point, but at least their matches are serviceable.
Pac def. "Speedball" Mike Bailey in a Continental Classic Gold League MatchPac just beat Darby Allin at Full Gear, so it would've been silly for him to lose here. That said, Bailey looked more than credible in defeat and will be just fine in the remainder of the Continental Classic. This was an enjoyable outing from them and I'm glad it got some time. Pac will be facing Kazuchika Okada on Wednesday's Dynamite and I can't wait for that after that banger they had at Dynasty last year.
Brian Myers def. Ryan Nemeth, Trey Miguel, Home Town Man, Mance Warner and Eric Young in a Thanksgiving Turkey Bowl MatchAh, the annual Thanksgiving Turkey Bowl match. It's never been something I've particularly cared about, but I appreciate TNA wanting to keep the tradition alive. As a match, there was nothing special about it, but you had to know Nemeth was eating the loss considering he was the biggest loser involved and it made the most sense for him to wear the ridiculous turkey suit. What I wasn't expecting was for it to become a show-long bit.
