Mike Johnson tagging in!
Alicia Atout conducted interviews outside with Top Flight, Scorpio Sky, and Christopher Daniels. She asked the Martins about their upcoming tag match. Darius said they have been on a roll. AEW Champion Hangman Page interrupted, warning the Martins that while the Callis Family wouldn’t interfere in his AEW Championship match at All Out, they shouldn’t expect the same courtesy in theirs.
Killswitch and Kip Sabian (with Mother Wayne) vs. Kevin Knight and Mike Bailey
Mother Wayne grabbed Bailey’s foot while he hit the ropes, though Bailey still connected with a trio of kicks on Killswitch. When Bailey ran toward the opposite ropes, Sabian pulled the top rope down, sending Bailey crashing to the floor. Sabian followed with an Arabian Press. Bailey scored a series of maneuvers but Killswitch cut him off with a headbutt and then executed a chokeslam. Sabian demanded the tag and slapped Killswitch to make the tag. Bailey nearly stole the win with a rollup, and Sabian responded in kind, using the ropes for leverage. Killswitch shoved Sabian’s foot off the ropes. When Sabian reached for a tag, Killswitch dropped from the apron and refused. Knight nailed a top rope clothesline on Sabian, followed by Bailey’s kick for the pin.
Your winners, Kevin Knight and Mike Bailey!

Bryan Danielson Interviewed Darby Allin. Danielson asked Allin why he climbed Mount Everest. Footage of the climb was shown while Allin explained that he felt like he’d been living his life for others, so he needed to prove to himself what he was capable of. He said there are liars and politicians in wrestling, but you can’t politic your way up Everest. Allin revealed he flew the AEW flag at the summit. Danielson asked if he was ready for his Coffin match against Jon Moxley. Allin admitted he wasn’t sure and insisted Danielson stay out of it, no matter what. Allin blamed himself for Danielson’s WrestleDream PPV injury, but Danielson reassured him that wasn’t his fault. When Allin said Danielson’s career was over, Danielson replied that his word meant as much to him as it did to Allin. He again gave his word he wouldn’t interfere.

Excalibur asked Danielson what he had told Allin, but Danielson said it was just between them.
