We're informed it will be Miro vs. Orange Cassidy in the AEW Title Eliminator Tournament.
Malakai Black is unhappy about Tony Khan's decision to ban him from tonight's Cody vs. Andrade match. He reminds TK that it wasn't just Markus that betrayed Caesar. I hope he isn't referring to Brutus Beefcake showing up tonight.
Miro reminds God that he warned Him. God's Forsaken Champion is in the eliminator tournament. God needs to prove himself to Miro, and Miro has to prove himself to "her". Someday, according to Miro, God will be forgiven.It's time for CM Punk! St. Louis is more than happy to see him. He has a serious look on his face. He doesn't want to hear his name chanted right now. He asks the audience to cheer for Jon Moxley. Very classy gesture. He wants no one to criticize Moxley. Punk is proud of him, as am I. Punk encourages anyone who needs help to reach out for it. He then turns his attention to Eddie Kingston. He's not appreciative of Kingston interrupting him last week. He'd love to fight him but Eddie is not in Missouri tonight. He challenges Eddie to a match, presumably on Rampage.
Alex Marvez is with the Young Bucks and Adam Cole. Christian Cage interrupts them, alone with Luchsauaurus. The Elite attack and the brawl spills out into the arena. It's 3 on 2 and the Elite take over until Jungle Boy runs out and hits a big senton on the Elite. Matt Jackson with a cheap shot but Cage with a spear. Cage sets up the killswitch but Nick Jackson with a superkick. Jurassic Express takes out the Bucks. Jungle Boy with a Snare trap on Cole. Christian whips out some chairs. Conchairto time. Methinks we're getting a 6 man tag in 10 days.
Rudy Soho and Kris Statlander have a pre packaged video talking about their upcoming match.

WINNERS AND STILL AAA CHAMPIONS: FTR
We see highlights of Hikaru Shida's trophy presentation. Nyla Rose interrupted and warns her that she's next in the TBS tournament. Rose mocks how long it took her to hit 50, which seems odd given Roses' W-L record.

It's Dos Santos, Arlovski, Lambert and the Men of the Year vs The Inner circle.

MJF emerges, mic in hand and addresses Darby Allin, still in the crowd. MJF actually puts Darby over as a pillar of the company. MJF admits they will become legendary. But MAxwell wonders why he's booed and Allin cheered. MJF calls him an incel. Interesting. MJF tells Allin they cheer him because they're just like him, outcasts who'll never fit in. MJF reminds Allin that he's better than him and Allin knows it. Allin has heard enough. He admits he's an outcast. He vows to keep his composure at Full Gear. Allin goes after him but MJF bails. Sting and other guys in MJF masks force MJF back. WArdlow and Shawn Spears fight them off as Allin and MJF start brawling in the stands. MJF gets the edge here until allin sends him into the rail.
