AEW World Tag Team Champions Ricky Starks and Big Bill def. Le Sex Gods in a Street FightWait, when was this made a Street Fight? Was it always supposed to be a Street Fight? I must've missed that. Honestly, this probably benefited the stipulation. It was definitely a mess and all over the place, and I can't imagine it would've been any better than it was if it was a standard tag team match. I just can't bring myself to care about almost anything involving Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara at the moment, but they put forth a commendable effort here, I'll give them that much. Of course, Starks and Bill retaining was the right call. Konosuke Takeshita and Powerhouse Hobbs interfered a few times, so their feud with Le Sex Gods will continue.

AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy def. John SilverI had totally forgotten that Cassidy and Silver had a match back at Full Gear 2020. I honestly have very little recollection of that. At any rate, Silver was hardly a threat to the title here since Cassidy just regained the gold last week, but it was a well-wrestled affair for what it was worth. Cassidy announced later on backstage that it will be him and Kazuchika Okada vs. Jon Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli in tag team action on Wednesday's Dynamite, which is quite the attraction.
AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy def. Lance Archer by Count-OutArcher just returned to the ring on AEW TV last night on Rampage, so no one had any reason to believe he'd be the one to end Cassidy's undefeated streak and title reign. They had a well-worked match, but the count-out finish really ruined it. I assume the idea is to keep the feud going, if only for one more match, but it was a weak way of opening the show. Plus, this was a Battle of the Belts special, not an ordinary episode of Dynamite or Rampage. The crowd wasn't happy and I don't blame them.
AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy def. DralisticoCassidy has been delivering as International/All-Atlantic Champion since late last year, there's no doubt about it. I'd go so far as to say that his title defenses have become a weekly highlight on AEW programming. This was another enjoyable outing from him, even though Dralistico hasn't been established enough on AEW TV to feel like a legitimate threat to the championship here. I'm looking forward to Cassidy vs. Buddy Matthews next Wednesday on Dynamite.
