Mike Sydal assisted his brother, but Kenny hit snap dragon suplexes on Mike and Matt Sydal! Dante Martin got the hot tag and delivered big right hands to Matt Jackson!

Tony Schiavone entered the ring after the match to interview The Elite. Don Callis grabbed the microphone from Schiavone and began to run down the Pittsburgh fans.

Christian Cage’s music hit and out came the challenger to Kenny’s title.

“Look, it’s Christian Cage, the Stamford stooge. You’re a little outnumbered,” said Don Callis.

Jurassic Express—Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus—the #1 ranked challengers for The Young Bucks’ belts, came out to even up the odds for Christian Cage!

“You’re getting your AEW Title shot at ALL OUT. I think you’ve got one of the best finishers I’ve ever seen. In fact, Kenny can’t wait to kick out of it on September 5th at ALL OUT. Go back to the bench and wait your turn. Did you really think Kenny Omega was going to wrestle you in Pittsburgh?” said Don Callis.

“Are you finished, you carnie jag-off? I talked to Tony Khan this week myself. You’re right, it’s locked in, Kenny Omega vs. Christian Cage for the most prestigious prize in this sport—the AEW World Championship—at ALL OUT. But in case I’m counting wrong, Kenny, you have more than one championship. And guess what? In that conversation I had with Tony, you will be wrestling in Pittsburgh. Kenny Omega vs. Christian Cage for the Impact Championship this Friday on RAMPAGE,” said Christian Cage.

“You guys, I also talked to Tony. He told me that me and Luchasaurus are wrestling The Young Bucks next week on DYNAMITE for the tag team titles,” said Jungle Boy.

A video package aired of TNT Champion Miro. “Fuego Del Sol, this Friday, RAMPAGE!” said Miro.

Darby Allin (with Sting) vs. “Red Death” Daniel Garcia (with 2.0—Jeff Park & Matt Lee)!

“Daniel Garcia stood toe-to-toe with Darby Allin last week, but he’s wrestled a lot this week on the independent scene, including a 60-minute draw with Wheeler Yuta,” noted Excalibur.

They locked up in the ring with Garcia forcing Darby into the corner turnbuckles. Garcia put pressure on Darby’s left arm, and then worked over his wrist. Garcia transitioned into a backslide, but Darby escaped.

Darby shoved at Daniel Garcia and then applied the Fujiwara armbar. Garcia grabbed the rope immediately to force the ref to break the hold. 2.0 distracted the ref which allowed Daniel Garcia to gouge at Darby Allin. Garcia whipped Darby into the turnbuckles.

Garcia applied a hammerlock to Darby and then stomped away on Darby’s head! Darby’s boot touched the bottom rope and he managed to get the ref to break the hold.

Garcia slapped Darby and Darby had enough! He chopped away at Garcia. Darby went for the Coffin Drop but Garcia countered. Darby fought back with a stunner and then he connected with the Coffin Drop, pinning Garcia!

2.0 tried to get involved and Sting moved in and made quick work of them. Darby Allin and Sting made 2.0 pay for their loud mouths!

“Darby Allin and Sting go together like sauce and ribs,” said Jim Ross.

Death Triangle were backstage. Rey Fenix asked PAC if he knew about all the things Andrade El Idolo was doing to get in their heads. “Don’t worry about Andrade El Idolo. Let me focus on Andrade El Idolo. You two need to focus on the AEW tag team gold. And we don’t know why you’re obsessed with Death Triangle, Andrade El Idolo, but come and have a go. I’m easy to find,” said PAC.

Trios Match!

Tony Schiavone was in the ring to interview AEW Women’s World Champion Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D.

Baker received a hero’s welcome in Brittsburgh!

“The champ has come home,” said Jim Ross.

“I really can’t comment on Red Velvet’s rise because I can’t relate. I’ve always been at the top of AEW. I’ve always been the face of this division and I’ve always been the baddest bitch on the block. But her fearlessness—that I can relate to. I wasn’t afraid to step up when this city needed a champion. I bleed black and gold just as much as anyone in here. So Pittsburgh, I present to you, hope,” said Baker, as she help up her world championship title.

“Red Velvet, you might have had a glimmer of hope if you were wrestling me in any other city, but not here in Pittsburgh, in the main event this Friday on RAMPAGE.”

Red Velvet didn’t want to wait until this Friday and charged at Britt Baker. AEW officials had to separate the two competitors.

“They’re going to settle it this Friday live on TNT on RAMPAGE,” said Jim Ross.

Wardlow continued with the powerbombs, one after another, with punishing, cumulative effects on Jericho!

“If power bombing was a drinking game, we’d have a lot of inebriated viewers right now,” said Jim Ross.

But Chris, forget the stipulations because I’m going to make a prediction for next week. You’re going to find out that you haven’t just met your match…you’ve met your successor!” said MJF.
