We were welcomed to the show by Tony Schiavone, Nigel McGuinness, and ‘Daddy Magic’ Matt Menard, before getting right into the opening match.

Daniel Garcia vs. Blake Christian

After the bell rang, but before the opponents tied up, Jon Moxley (joined by Marina Shafir) appeared in Garcia’s corner and whispered into his ear. On commentary, Garcia’s friend, Daddy Magic, said he had no idea what this was about.

After Moxley left, an aggressive Garcia dispatched Blake Christian quickly with a piledriver. After the match, Tony Schiavone came to the ring to ask Garcia what Moxley had said to him. Garcia responded by telling Schiavone he didn’t want to talk about that, instead challenging Moxley to a match next week.

Wheeler Yuta accepted the challenge on behalf of the Death Riders.

Conglomeration Confusion

Earlier in the parking lot, Roderick Strong said he doesn’t know why Kyle O’Reilly is teaming with Tomohiro Ishii instead of him against the Don Callis Family. O’Reilly doesn’t think the Don Callis family are actually related.

Kyle Fletcher & Josh Alexander vs. Kyle O’Reilly & Tomohiro Ishii

The match began with a sequence of mat wrestling between Josh Alexander and Kyle O’Reilly. Later, the first meeting between Fletcher and O’Reilly drew dueling “Kyle” chants from the Philadelphia crowd.

The finish was set up when O’Reilly missed a running knee off the apron and collided with the barricade. This allowed Fletcher to create a distraction by tripping Tomohiro Ishii. Alexander then capitalized with a low blow and a package piledriver on Ishii for the victory.

After the match, Roderick Strong came to the ring to check on O’Reilly.

Hayter hates Thekla

In the parking lot, Jamie Hayter and Thekla were brawling. A big crew of security had to break them up.

Mother Wayne takes charge

Mother Wayne was with a furious Kip Sabian, who was angry with Killswitch for their loss at Forbidden Door and for sustaining an eye injury. They got in each other’s faces before Mother Wayne ordered Sabian to take a walk.

Jay Lethal vs. Hologram

After an even opening, Jay Lethal took control and the action spilled to the outside where both competitors hit tope suicidas. Back in the ring, Lethal turned a top-rope dive from Hologram into a Lethal Combination and also applied a figure-four leg lock, but Hologram reached the ropes.

The finish came when Hologram countered an attempted Lethal Injection with a backstabber. He then hit a helicopter sitout powerbomb to secure the victory.

After the match, a strange video played with a message on a computer screen promising a Hologram “clone” would emerge soon. Hologram grabbed at his head in confusion.

Hurt Again?

Ricochet and The Gates of Agony want the Hurt Syndicate. Ricochet said he doesn’t forgive, which is why they went after the Syndicate at Forbidden Door.

Alex Windsor vs. Ashley Vox

A squash match for Windsor, who won with The Sharpshooter.

Tony Schiavone joined her in the ring to ask for Windsor’s reaction to Mercedes Moné’s comments about her. Windsor said, legal or not, she made Moné tap. She was furious at Moné’s comments about putting Windsor in a hospital bed beside her husband, Will Ospreay. She challenged the TBS Champ to a match.

Callis/Briscoe Summit

Lexi Nair was with Mark Briscoe and Don Callis, who have agreed to meet with no physicality. If Briscoe is able to beat a member of the Don Callis family, Callis agreed that he will get a title shot with TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher. 

FTR vs. JD Drake & Adam Priest

JD Drake and Adam Priest controlled the early portion of the match, isolating Dax Harwood and working over his leg. Drake hit a moonsault on Cash Wheeler for a near-fall. FTR recovered and took Drake out of the match with a Shatter Machine, leaving Adam Priest alone. Harwood then forced Priest to submit to a Cope-style crossface.

Following the match, Cash Wheeler addressed the loudly booing crowd before Dax Harwood took the microphone. Harwood stated that their goal was to end the careers of Adam Copeland and Christian Cage at AEW All Out in Toronto.

All-Star hype

Fresh off their earlier win, Josh Alexander and Kyle Fletcher were backstage with Don Callis, where they talked up their All-Star eight-man match on Wednesday’s episode of Dynamite.

Big Bill vs. Juice Robinson

Juice Robinson controlled the early moments with a side headlock, even holding on through a back suplex attempt. After escaping, Big Bill sent Robinson outside, leading to a brawl on the floor where both men used a support beam as a weapon.

Back in the ring, Robinson targeted Bill’s knee and followed with a shotgun dropkick and the Left Hand of God for a near-fall. The finish was set in motion when Bryan Keith got on the apron to distract Robinson as he climbed the ropes. Robinson knocked Keith to the floor, but then walked directly into a Black Hole Slam from Bill, who secured the pinfall.

Toni Storm, Mina Shirakawa & Queen Aminata vs. Billie Starkz, Skye Blue, and Julia Hart

The babyface team controlled the opening minutes of the main event, isolating Billie Starkz. Queen Aminata had a significant offensive sequence against Julia Hart before the action spilled to the outside. Following a commercial break, Toni Storm received a tag and hit a series of German suplexes and hip attacks on her opponents. During a chaotic sequence, Hart sustained a bloodied nose. The finish came when Mina Shirakawa pinned Starkz after hitting the Glamorous Driver.

** After the match, Thekla attacked Shirakawa and Aminata, giving the opposing team a four-on-three numbers advantage. The group proceeded to beat down the victors. Thekla laid out Toni Storm with a spear, and the heel faction stood tall over their fallen opponents as the show went off the air.
