** Ian Riccobani and Matt Menard joined Tony Schiavone at the commentary desk.

** Jamie Hayter got the better of Saraya in the opener despite facing rules that allowed Saraya to cheat. Hayter had to face continual double-teaming from Saraya and Harley Cameron. Hayter prevailed with a fierce lariat.

** We saw a clip of a sit-down interview by Renee Paquette with both Will Ospreay and Ricochet ahead of their match on the Dynamite 5th anniversary special.

** Despite getting nailed with Orange Cassidy’s backpack (which contained a brick), Chris Jericho got the pin on Mark Briscoe after he had been put through a table by Big Bill. The Learning Tree win over The Conglomeration. Bill got a great reaction from the Queen’s crowd.

** Brody King weathered an early flurry of fast strikes to score a quick win over Action Andretti. The Righteous and Lance Archer brawled with Top Flight after the bell.

** Minoru Suzuki was the surprise opponent for Jack Perry’s TNT Championship open challenge. Perry overcame the Japanese legend to retain by count-out. Perry continued to attack Suzuki after the bell but was run off by Katsuyori Shibata.

** Wheeler Yuta came out late to join his fellow AEW Trios Champions Claudio Castagnoli and PAC. He looked unhappy to be there and refused several tags. When he was finally tagged in, he let out his frustration on Isiah Kassidy and submitted him.

** Hologram won an entertaining and fast-paced three-way lucha libre match to pin Dralistico. Post-match, Rush made his way to the ring to head up a three-on-one attack on Hologram. The trio then made the La Faccion Ingobernable sign.

** Kris Statlander was interviewed by Lexi Nair backstage. She said every woman in AEW should thank her because when they face her, they get better.

** MxM Collection came out to the ring to unveil their redesign of Max Caster’s stolen jacket. The model wearing it turned out to be Billy Gunn. Gunn attacked Mansoor and Mason, with The Acclaimed joining in.

** The semi-main event saw Hangman Page face Jeff Jarrett in a Lumberjack Strap match. It was the lumberjacks, including Dark Order and the Bang Bang Gang, who wielded the straps, not the competitors. At one stage, Karen Jarrett got her hands on a strap and welted Hangman with it. Page would win with a low blow and The Deadeye.

** The main event saw Kazuchika Okada defeat Sammy Guevara in a Continental Title eliminator match. Okada would win a very good 20-minute match with The Rainmaker.
