Orange Cassidy ©(Best Friends)
vs.
Jon Moxley
(Blackpool Combat Club)
AEW International Championship
Orange Cassidy is a lovable slacker who’s so good that even with his hands in his pockets he can be the longest reigning AEW International Champion. OC would defend his belt for 326 days with the most defenses of any AEW champion. The wear and tear proved too much, however, coming from Cincinnati’s own violence enthusiast Jon Moxley who would stomp on Orange’s dreams and become the new champion. Ironically, Moxley would have the shortest reign of any AEW International Champion after only 17 days becoming concussed in a match with Rey Fenix and losing the title to the luchador. Fenix would also get injured and lose the title quickly back to Orange Cassidy. OC now feels cheated out of his Moxley redemption arc. He didn’t beat Moxley, he beat the guy who picked up the pieces of Moxley, and now he wants to prove even his slacker ass can bring the violence. Moxley also feels cheated, out of his title and out of proving that he could go longer and harder than Orange Cassidy with the International Belt. Orange looks to cement himself as a future main eventer, Moxley only looks to cement himself as a man that loves blood and glorious violence.

RUSH & Dralistico (Los Faccione Ingobernables) vs. Ricky Starks & Big Bill © vs. FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler) vs. House of Black (Aleister Black & Brody King)
There is no story to this match other than 3 teams want to take the tag titles from Ricky Starks and Big Bill. Those two knuckleheads won the titles in a surprise squash against a beaten down FTR. FTR want their belts back. LFI have just returned as a faction of men who don’t give a fuck and love RUSH so they look to make a dominant opening statement. And the House of Black are the lovable Goth boys who speak cryptically and hit hard. The odds are stacked against Ricky and Bill, can they overcome these hungry, hungry men?

Hikaru Shida© vs. Timeless Toni Storm
AEW Women’s World Championship
After losing the Women’s World Championship to Shida, Toni Storm went a little bit batty. She now sees herself as a 20’s starlet reliving her best roles. Oftentimes it takes place in black and white alongside her new butler Lutha, with an admiring fan Mariah May recently debuting in a plotline taken from All About Eve. Shida would lose that World title to Saraya at Wembley, only to regain it on Dynamite a few months later, becoming the first ever 3 time Women’s World Championship. Since then Shida has impressed with dominant defenses of her title, only to have Toni Storm take the stage and try and steal her spotlight everytime. Shida has shida nuff, and now puts her title on the line against Timeless Toni Storm.

The Golden Jets (Kenny Omega & Chris Jericho)
vs.
The Young Bucks
Kenny and Jericho, who’s feud in New Japan Pro Wrestling essentially led to the creation of AEW, have bonded over their mutual disdain for their long time friend/manager Don Callis. Callis double-crossed both Kenny and Jericho. Preoccupied with Callis’ antics, Kenny has been somewhat absent in the lives of fellow Elite members the Young Bucks. The Bucks and Hangman lost their Ring of Honor Trios Titles when Swerve Strickland lured Hangman away and Swerve’s lackeys Brian Cage and The Gates of Agony took advantage. Pissed that Kenny did not back them up when ganged up against, there is once again “tension among the Elite”. To add to this, Jericho once beat the shit out of the Young Buck’s father, so they don’t trust him or this alliance with Kenny. At Wrestledream, The Bucks won an opportunity to challenge for the Tag Team Titles anytime they want. Now they put that opportunity on the line against Kenny and Omega, but if the Bucks win the Golden Jets must disband.

Hangman Adam Page
vs.
Swerve Strickland
Swerve called out Hangman for squandering his opportunities as a member of the Elite, a group along with Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks who helped found AEW. Swerve said if he had Hangman’s opportunities he’d already be the first ever black AEW World Champion. Their first match, in front of Swerve’s hometown, put Hangman in the rare position of being booed and jeered. Interference from Swerve’s manager Prince Nana would lead to a tainted Swerve victory. Since then Hangman has interfered in Swerve’s matches. Swerve than decided to do a home invasion into Hangman’s house and leave a Swerve shirt in his newborn’s crib. Hangman felt this was taking things too far and now the match is set. A furious Hangman, renowned for his penchant for violence, looks to brutalize the ascendant Swerve, stop his momentum and cement himself as an ace of the company.Who will win?(2)Method of victory?

Sting, Darby Allin & Adam Copeland
vs.
Christian, Nick Wayne & Luchasaurus
At Wrestledream, Darby Allin’s former protégé Nick Wayne would double-cross the little goth boy and join Christian’s Patriarchy. Christian would also pin Luchasaurus in a triple threat match to take Luchasaurus’ TNT title away from him. As Christian’s stablemate, this didn’t piss off Luchasaurus as much as you might think. Nonetheless this crew of bad, fatherless boys stand besides Christian, the perennial evil fucker who mocks people’s familial losses and picks up MILFs at funerals. Meanwhile former Christian friend (formerly Edge) Adam Copeland has joined AEW to finish his career with his best friend Christian. Christian told him to go fuck himself, so Adam Copeland decided he would steer clear of Christian until inevitably his crew turned on him and then Adam would be there to pick up the pieces. Christian didn’t like that either so he threatened to break Adam’s neck and end his career early. Speaking of careers ending, Sting has announced his retirement. In the waning days of an incredible journey, Sting in no uncertain terms told Adam to stand up for himself and fight back against the dastardly Christian. But there is a long and storied tale of Sting’s partners turning on him, will Adam do the right thing? Or will this fatherless guy also be sucked into Christian’s morbid, orphan-obsessed stable?
