Live Coverage
* Will Ospreay & Adam Page def. Don Callis Family (Konosuke Takeshita & Josh Alexander)
- After a miscommunication, Page and Ospreay got into a heated face-off. Takeshita and Alexander seized the moment to attack, but Ospreay fought back, hitting Alexander with a Hidden Blade and suplexing Takeshita. In the chaos, Ospreay accidentally nailed Page with a forearm. Referee Bryce stepped in as Ospreay tried to explain the mistake, but with Page unwilling to hear it, Ospreay walked off frustrated.
- A video package airs hyping tonight’s Steel Cage main event between Jon Moxley and Samoa Joe.
- Backstage with Alicia Atout, Top Flight, and Leila Grey hype their match against the Hurt Syndicate. Dante Martin warns MJF to stay out of their business, saying he'll "bite his nose off," while Darius Martin vows they’ll beat the Hurt Syndicate and set their sights on the Tag Team Titles. Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara step in, with Rhodes encouraging Top Flight to turn doubt into motivation. He adds that they’ll be watching their match closely tonight.
* Ricochet def. Zach Gowen
- Mark Briscoe ran in to save Zach Gowen from further damage by Ricochet.
* AEW World Tag Team Championship Eliminator: Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin) (c) def. Top Flight (Dante Martin & Darius Martin)
- After the match, the Sons of Texas, Sammy Guevara and Dustin Rhodes, confront the Hurt Syndicate, but MVP says Lashley and Benjamin won’t fight them out of respect for Dusty Rhodes. As tensions rise, CRU (Action Andretti and Lio Rush) interrupts. Action Andretti warns Guevara and Rhodes to step aside, while Lio Rush respectfully challenges the Hurt Syndicate for an AEW Tag Title shot, playing on his WWE history with Lashley. Rhodes fires back, telling CRU to wait in line. MVP decides on a #1 Contender Match—Sons of Texas vs. CRU on AEW Saturday Collision— with the winners earning a title shot at Double or Nothing.
- It's time for the final decision regarding MJF joining the group. Max doesn't come out initially, and Shelton Benjamin has to get him. This time, he gets the three thumbs up and excitedly hugs Bobby Lashley, who pushes him off. Next week, he will sign his official contract for the Hurt Syndicate.
* AEW Women's Title Eliminator: Mina Shirakawa def. AZM, Toni Storm, and Skye Blue
- After the match, Toni Storm vs. Mina Shirakawa is made official for Double or Nothing. Mercedes Mone storms out, attacks AZM, and locks in the Statement Maker. Jamie Hayter rushes to attack Mercedes, applying the Statement Maker on Mone and nearly landing a Lariat before security breaks it up.
- Tribute paid to Sabu with sweet words from Taz.
- Tony Schiavone brings Nigel McGuinness in the ring, where McGuinness apologizes to Schiavone and Daniel Garcia for getting involved last week, admitting he let his ego take over and pledging to stay behind the commentary desk. Garcia comes out and rejects the apology, saying FTR disrespected him and nearly ended both his and McGuinness’ careers, but invites McGuinness to fight alongside him. Speaking on FTR’s behalf, Stokely Hathaway arrives and demands that McGuinness face them in an official match as punishment for his actions, mocking him for being past his prime and his past battle with hepatitis. McGuinness hesitates, calling FTR dangerous and admitting he barely knows Garcia, but Garcia encourages him by pointing to their shared history of overcoming the odds. FTR then ambush Garcia, and as they prepare to take out McGuinness, Daddy Magic runs in with a crowbar, forcing them to retreat.
* Steel Cage - AEW World Championship: Jon Moxley (c) def. Samoa Joe
- Willow Nightingale and Powerhouse Hobbs evened out Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castagnoli, and Marina Shafir's presence. Gabe Kidd appears and helps Moxley win the match. The Young Bucks, Matthew and Nicholas Jackson, appear and raise the cage as Kidd and MOX attack The Opps. Kenny Omega came out to help, but then Kazuchika Okada attacked Kenny. Speedball Mike Bailey came out to chase Okada off. The Bucks lowered the cage again, and out came Swerve Strickland, who dived off the cage. Once the heels took a powder, Strickland laid out a challenge for Anarchy in the Arena at AEW Double or Nothing.
