Kazuchika Okada arrived late for the CMLL World Trios Championship match, which continued past the AEW Full Gear ‘Tailgate Brawl’ pre-show window.
The broadcast concluded at 8 pm ET without a result in the scheduled title match involving The Don Callis Family.
Konosuke Takeshita and Hechicero began the match without their partner, attacking El Sky Team before the bell rang.
During the initial brawl, Hechicero trapped Mistico’s arm in a chair, resulting in medical officials helping the champion to the back. While Takeshita and Hechicero fought Mascara Dorada and Neon in a handicap situation, cameras cut to the parking lot where Okada arrived in a sports car.
The pre-show went off the air as Okada made his way toward the arena, leaving the match in progress.
