AEW Full Gear Results: November 14, 2026 – Will Ospreay Retains Against Kyle Fletcher, MJF Attacks Ospreay, Mercedes Moné Survives Shafir, The Cut Wins Anarchy in the Arena, Three New Champions, More

AEW Full Gear was LIVE on HBO Max PPV from the Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix, Arizona! As one of AEW’s longest-running events, Full Gear has quite a reputation for star-making performances and a history of violence. Tonight was no different, with three new champions crowned, a barbaric Texas Death Match and Anarchy in the Arena, with this year’s soundtrack coming from DMX!

Of course, the AEW World Championship was on the line in the main event between two former friends turned rivals forever. AEW World Champion Will Ospreay and “The Protostar” Kyle Fletcher added another classic to their battles, although it was starting to feel like neither man would stay down until Ospreay finally got the job done. However, MJF made a shocking return after the match when he blindsided Ospreay with the Triple B!

AEW Women’s World Champion Mercedes Moné faced arguably the toughest matchup of her career and just barely got by Marina Shafir to retain her title. AEW International Champion Kazuchika Okada retained against Adam Copeland in impressive fashion to begin Full Gear, and the Young Bucks fought off Mark Davis and Jake Doyle to keep the AEW World Tag Team Titles. After the match, the Motor City Machine Guns came out to congratulate the Bucks, but all four men were taken out by the shocking debut of the Kasper Brothers, Jacob and Drew!

Swerve Strickland insisted on bringing The New Level into a Texas Death Match, and it paid off because they were able to regain the AEW World Trios Titles from “Hangman” Adam Page, Brody King and Bandido in a match that will never be forgotten, especially by the six men who barely survived it. The chaos continued later in the night when The Cut managed to beat the unlikely combination of the Death Riders and The Conglomeration following returns, surprises and an atmosphere unlike any other!

Plus, Wrathlander beat the Brawling Birds to win the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship, and Ilja Dragunov has his first AEW gold, winning the AEW National Title from Tommaso Ciampa!

With the 2026 Continental Classic set to begin Wednesday on AEW Dynamite, make sure you see everything that went down tonight in Phoenix!

AEW Full Gear Results

AEW Saturday Tailgate Brawl: “Jungle” Jack Perry def. The Beast Mortos

Our opening contest for AEW Saturday Tailgate Brawl was a first-time singles affair with Perry bringing the crowd to their feet on his way to the ring. Mortos was not shaken in the slightest, using his power to neutralize Perry multiple times before Perry sent Mortos over the top rope to the floor. Perry’s glimmer of hope disappeared when Mortos dropped him on the ring apron with a gorilla press! Mortos continued to work over Perry and sent him towards the steel steps, but Perry slid underneath the bottom turnbuckle and disappeared out of Mortos’ sight. Perry came from the opposite side with a shotgun dropkick! Perry soaked in the cheers while standing on the barricade, but his flight down included a hurricanrana to take Mortos down again! Perry sent Mortos back in, only for Mortos to knock all the air out of Perry with an impactful Samoan Drop!

Mortos continued to control Perry with his size and strength, although Perry refused to stay down! He bounced up after a lariat from Mortos and struck back until he took Mortos down with a lariat of his own. Perry came off the top, so Mortos headbutted him out of midair! Mortos quickly followed with a Tombstone Lungblower, and somehow Perry kicked out! Mortos went to pick Perry up, but Perry nearly trapped him for a three-count! Mortos came back with an Argentine Backbreaker and discus lariat, but Perry still found a way to dig down deep and kick out! Both men had dueling chants in the crowd as Mortos went to the top rope, but came up empty with a Mariposa attempt. Perry saw the opening and lifted Mortos for a deadlift piledriver! Perry backed up to the corner and crushed Mortos with a running knee to the side of the head! Instead of going for the pin, Perry put Mortos on the top rope and yelled right at the camera, “This is for you, Samoa Joe, you son of a bitch!” Perry spit at the camera and then hit Joe’s Muscle Buster on Mortos to get the three-count and win!

The Conglomeration and Death Riders Meet on the Utah Salt Flats

AEW cameras were sent to document a meeting between The Conglomeration and AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir on the Utah Salt Flats. With Shafir and Moxley waiting outside their car, Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong pulled up from the opposite side. Moxley threw Cassidy a backpack, which Cassidy didn’t even try to catch, but Strong and O’Reilly checked it out, with O’Reilly finally saying, “This doesn’t make us trust you.”

Moxley said, “I didn’t ask you to. Why would you? After all the ugliness between us. Uncomfortable decisions made. I have a rule. I don’t apologize.”

Cassidy stepped right up to Moxley and removed his glasses before saying, “I didn’t ask you to.” He put his glasses on and walked away with Strong and O’Reilly to return to their vehicle, ending this intense, unlikely meeting before these two sides team up in Anarchy in the Arena later tonight.

AEW Saturday Tailgate Brawl: The Don Callis Family’s Wardlow, “The Jet” Kevin Knight & El Clon def. Jaden Monroe, RJ Wylde & Jordan Cruz

This combination shows just how versatile the Don Callis Family can be, and they showed it right away with Clon starting things off by lighting up Wylde with a pair of nasty kicks before dropping Monroe with an innovative cutter. He hit a hesitation Pele kick on Wylde and tagged Knight in for a springboard lariat. Cruz came in and was met by a dropkick from Knight. He clobbered Cruz in the corner and tagged Wardlow, who walked in and powerbombed Cruz. He did it again, and Clon hit a step-up springboard moonsault to Wylde and Monroe on the floor. Knight tagged in and crushed Cruz with a UFO Splash for a dominant victory!

The Don Callis Family celebrated in the ring with Rocky Romero calling Phoenix, Arizona, “Don Callis Family Territory.” The crowd didn’t agree. Romero said it was a special night because Kyle Fletcher was going to bring the AEW World Championship to the Don Callis Family. Trent Beretta called out their opponents, although without a hint of respect, and it was time for our next match!

AEW Saturday Tailgate Brawl: Boom & Doom (QT Marshall and Big Boom! A.J.) & Skyflight’s Darius Martin and Matt Sydal def. The Don Callis Family’s RPG Vice (Trent Beretta and Rocky Romero), Lance Archer and Josh Alexander

The fight started in the aisle, which means everyone was robbed of AJ’s customary ringside greetings, but they finally made it in the ring, and the bell rang. AJ broke through an RPG Vice double team and then sent Alexander to the floor. Darius Martin swung around the ring post and took down Alexander with a headscissors! Boom and Doom lit up Archer with punches and tagged Sydal, who flew off the top with a Meteora to the shoulders of Archer. Beretta came in, and Sydal handled him with a guillotine leg drop and a moonsault press, but Beretta managed to kick out to keep the match alive.

The Callis Family worked over Sydal in the corner to turn things around until he took Alexander over with a hurricanrana. Marshall tagged in and cleared out the Callis Family corner. He caught Alexander with a powerslam, only for Archer to flatten Marshall with the biggest crossbody! Romero took over and kept Marshall away from his corner until Beretta tagged in. Marshall and Beretta took each other down with simultaneous clotheslines, but Beretta nearly won it with a tornado DDT! Marshall hit a desperation enzigiri on Beretta and made the tag to AJ! He connected with punches, getting “BOOM” chants with every connection on the Don Callis Family! Archer initially didn’t cede ground to AJ until AJ sent him over the top rope with a big clothesline! AJ dropped Beretta with a spinebuster and Romero with a running powerslam!

AJ grabbed Beretta for a powerbomb and tagged Marshall, who went to the top rope. Alexander nailed AJ to break it up and then turned Marshall inside out with a big lariat. Martin hopped through the ropes to drop Alexander with a Flatliner, only for Archer to immediately chokeslam him, Sydal and Marshall! Marshall was sent to the corner to get squashed by Archer and then dumped by Alexander with a German suplex. Romero and Beretta hit Marshall with Strong Zero, but AJ managed to break up the pin to make the save!

Archer pulled Marshall out of the corner looking for Blackout, but Martin made a blind tag, and Marshall escaped to hit a Diamond Cutter on Archer. Martin evaded Alexander and sent him over with a Spanish Fly! Beretta caught Martin with a half-and-half suplex, so Sydal came in and caught Beretta with a jumping knee. Romero nailed Sydal with a heel kick and slid across the ring to celebrate. It was another premature celebration, as Sydal leveled Romero with a Shining Wizard to the side of the head! Martin hit a leaping spear to Romero in the corner and threw him to AJ for a Power Boom! Martin dove through the ropes to take out Archer and Sydal hit his picturesque Shooting Star Press on Romero to get the pinfall victory!

AEW Saturday Tailgate Brawl: TBS Championship 4-Way Match: TBS Champion Queen Aminata (c) def. CMLL World Women’s Champion Persephone, Skye Blue and Hyan

Travel issues kept Maya World from making it to Full Gear, so this match was changed to a 4-Way with Blue and Hyan getting another chance after Aminata successfully defended against both of them on Wednesday’s Dynamite and Collision special. Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D., accompanied Persephone to the ring and joined commentary for this match. Persephone tried to take the TBS Title from referee Mike Posey, so Aminata nailed her from behind, and the bell rang! Blue took down Aminata, so Blue and Hyan hit stereo dropkicks to knock Aminata and Persephone from the ring.

Hyan rolled up Blue, so Blue rolled through it and cracked her in the head before trying a Code Blue, which Hyan escaped. Blue caught Hyan with a cradle for a near fall, but both were pulled to the floor by Aminata and Persephone, who brawled all over the mat in the ring. They exchanged big strikes as the crowd chanted for Aminata. Persephone came back with a basement dropkick to Aminata, who then blocked a suplex attempt. Blue and Hyan got involved, but it was Aminata and Hyan who won the double suplex battle. Hyan and Aminata took each other out with simultaneous clotheslines!

Aminata worked her way into control of Blue and gave her some Chocolate Kisses! Aminata threw Blue to the floor, but a distraction from Baker allowed Blue to come back in and catch Aminata with a thrust kick. Blue cracked Aminata with a knee to the chin! Hyan came out of nowhere to take out Blue with a Busaiku Knee! Persephone dropped Hyan with a dropkick, but Aminata was waiting with a Queen’s Crown for Persephone! Aminata hit Atomic Drops on Blue, Persephone and Hyan! Blue tried to come back at Aminata, who hit a straight forearm to the head and a spinning neckbreaker. Aminata covered, but Persephone made the save and choked Aminata while yelling, “You stole it!”

Hyan pulled Persephone away and opened up on the former TBS Champion, including a pump-knee from the corner. Hyan followed with a double underhook facebuster, but Blue broke it up with a thrust kick. Blue dumped Hyan with a neckbreaker and then set up a chair on the floor and sat Hyan in it. As soon as Blue turned around, Aminata fired a chair off Blue’s head!

CLANG! Aminata came off the top with a nasty diving foot stomp to Blue, but Persephone ran Aminata into the post and tried to steal the pin, yet Blue managed to kick out. Persephone tried to pin Blue with a Northern Lights Suplex, and again, Blue kicked out. Persephone yelled at Baker to get “her title,” so Baker grabbed the TBS Title and the CMLL World Women’s Title, but Persephone wanted the TBS Title, which was not hers. When Persephone went to grab it, Blue ran across the ring and hit a kick to the side of Persephone’s head. Blue threw Persephone out of the ring and tried to run down the apron with a PK, so Persephone caught it and shifted Blue onto her shoulders. Baker put the TBS Title on the apron, which allowed Persephone to drop Blue face-first on the gold!

Persephone grabbed the TBS Title and cradled it while Aminata knocked out Baker with a Queen’s Crown! Persephone told the TBS Title, “I missed you.” That gave Aminata a chance to rescue her title with a Queen’s Crown for Persephone as well! Aminata sat Persephone in a chair and absolutely wiped her out with a running dropkick from the apron! Hyan flew through the ropes to nail Aminata and threw her back into the ring. Hyan didn’t get back in fast enough and was sent to the mat by a Queen’s Crown from Aminata, who then connected on Off With Her Head to Hyan to score the pinfall victory for the successful TBS Title defense! Aminata just successfully defended the TBS Title in a 3-Way and a 4-Way in the span of four days!

AEW International Championship Match: Don Callis Family’s AEW International Champion "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada (c) def. "The Rated-R Superstar" Adam Copeland

Full Gear began with a legendary showdown, and a fired-up Phoenix crowd was thrilled to see Copeland, which they made clear by completing one of the longest and strongest serenades to put Copeland in the proper frame of mind…or did it? Even Nigel McGuinness expressed that he saw doubt in Copeland’s eyes.

The crowd exploded in a “HOLY SHIT!” chant before the bell even rang, and the two opponents slowly met each other in the middle of the ring. They took in the atmosphere, which was off the charts, and backed up to circle each other before tying up. Copeland controlled Okada and trapped Okada’s arm in the ropes and kicked the ropes to try to weaken or neutralize a potential Rainmaker.

Copeland did it again, but broke clean the second time. Okada faked his first clean break with a tap on the chest and a boot to the midsection. Copeland came back with a spinning heel kick. Okada nearly caught Copeland with a Rainmaker, but Copeland escaped and charged for a spear, which Okada avoided by rolling out of the ring.

Copeland got frustrated with Okada’s stalling, so he slid out and right into Okada’s trap, as the champion kicked Copeland in the gut and threw him into the steel steps. Okada peeled the protective padding off the floor to expose the cement. Okada tried for a Tombstone Piledriver on the exposed floor, so Copeland backdropped out of it. He sat Okada in a chair and knocked him off it with a big boot. Copeland targeted Okada’s arm by slamming it into the barricade and ring post. They returned to the ring, so Okada bailed to the floor and then got back on the apron only for Copeland to knock him back to the floor. Copeland caught Callis making his way over and turned his attention away from Okada just long enough for Okada to deliver a running dropkick that sent Copeland crashing into the barricade. Okada smiled through the pain Copeland caused by attacking his shoulder.

Okada stayed on Copeland’s neck and shoulder by throwing him back into the barricade and then mocking Copeland’s pain as he walked away. Okada paused to get a slimy hug from Don Callis and threw Copeland back into the ring. Okada toyed with Copeland by pushing him with his boot and then hit a neckbreaker. Copeland tried to fight back, so Okada spiked him with a DDT. Okada hit a second DDT and then a third, so he finally went for a pin, and Copeland saved himself by grabbing the bottom rope before the three-count. Copeland did anything he could to stay away from Okada’s grasp, but a big boot from Okada crumpled Copeland to the mat. Okada hit a bodyslam and a perfect top-rope elbow drop, although he came up holding the arm Copeland had targeted. That didn’t stop Okada from flipping off the crowd. He picked up Copeland to go for a Rainmaker, so Copeland broke the grip and put Okada down with a flapjack. Copeland charged for a spear, but Okada was waiting for him with a neckbreaker across the knee! Okada rolled to the floor and grabbed his AEW International Championship. When he returned to the ring, referee Bryce Remsburg stopped Okada, and in the confusion, Copeland rolled up Okada and nearly won it!

Copeland ran into a big boot followed by an uppercut, so Okada tried for a Rainmaker, which Copeland reversed into a jumping Uranage out of pure desperation! Both men just barely beat the referee’s count and then went right back down when they both connected on big boots. They fought back off their knees until Okada hit Copeland with a perfect dropkick! Okada went for another Rainmaker, and again Copeland got out of it, but this time with a backslide. Okada rolled through it and evaded an Impaler DDT with a backslide of his own, which Copeland rolled through and bounced off the ropes for a spear, but Okada used a leapfrog to move, and Copeland awkwardly landed in the ropes. Okada immediately dropkicked Copeland in the base of the neck and dumped him with a Tombstone Piledriver! Okada didn’t go for a pin, and instead backed up to mock Copeland with his own version of the spear. Copeland answered with a flying uppercut in a last-ditch effort to stay alive. He had enough energy to hit Okada’s Rainmaker pose, complete with the middle finger!

Copeland backed up to the corner, and the crowd roared as they came to their feet. Okada stumbled up and Copeland charged for the spear, but Okada saw it coming and rolled to the floor. Copeland hit the ropes, so Callis grabbed his leg. Copeland stopped, and the referee went over to admonish Callis, so Copeland charged across the ring to spear Okada off the apron, only for Okada to put the International Title in Copeland’s way at the last moment! Copeland was already out, but Okada picked him up for a jumping DDT off the apron to the exposed concrete below! Okada got up laughing and went back to the ring for what would have been an easy countout victory. However, he decided to bring Copeland back in and pin him, which was only a ruse, as Okada pulled Copeland up by the hair at one! He did the same thing a second time!

Okada picked up a lifeless Copeland for a Rainmaker and floored him! Okada covered for the no-doubt three-count and a successful defense! Okada put his foot on Copeland’s chest to celebrate. Wow. Okada started up the ramp. As Copeland started to stir and get back to his feet, Okada ran back down and hit another Rainmaker! Okada backed up the ramp with a mocking smugness as he said, “I’m sorry!”

AEW World Tag Team Championship Match: AEW World Tag Team Champions Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) (c) def. Don Callis Family’s Mark Davis & Jake Doyle

Callis was right back out for the next match, as he joined commentary for this title match. Davis and Doyle immediately wiped out the Bucks in the ring and threw them to the outside for even more punishment. Nick was thrown over the barricade, so Davis and Doyle brought Matt back in, and while he tried to fight back, Davis popped him up right into a forearm by Doyle. Matt got away long enough for Nick to make a blind tag. They slammed Davis and followed with stereo elbow drops, but were immediately thumped to the ground by Doyle!

Davis and Doyle devastated Nick with a huge double shoulder block and celebrated on the ropes. However, Nick was able to escape Doyle’s clutches long enough to tag Matt. He countered Doyle’s suplex attempt, and the Bucks managed to take Doyle down with a double shoulder block from the second rope. They sent Davis to the floor with a double clothesline, but he immediately dragged them out after him. Doyle came over to help, so Nick stopped him, and the Bucks got on the apron. Davis and Doyle avoided their moonsaults to the floor and crushed the Bucks with forearm smashes. Davis and Doyle threw the Bucks into each other in midair for an ugly collision. Back in the ring, Davis and Doyle nearly finished Matt with a double powerslam, but he managed to kick out. Davis cracked Matt with a running forearm in the corner. Doyle tagged in and bounced Nick off the apron before crushing Matt with a forearm shot. Matt kicked out, so Davis tagged back in and slammed Matt before following with a senton splash. He knelt on Matt for a cocky cover, but Matt kicked out.

Matt caught Davis with boots to the face in the corner and tried to jump across the ring to tag Nick, but Doyle was there to cut it off. Matt sent Davis to the floor with a low bridge, but wound up back in Doyle’s grasp. Nick hit Doyle from the apron to help Matt get a near fall on a sunset flip. Matt thought he got away from Doyle long enough to make a tag, but Davis came around the ring to rip Nick off the apron. Matt had no one to tag and Doyle snatched him in a bearhug. Matt finally escaped when he boxed Doyle’s ears. Matt jumped off the apron into the waiting arms of Davis. Davis tried to send him into the ring post, so Matt pushed Davis right into a kick from Nick on the apron.

Matt escaped from a backdrop and faked Doyle into a DDT. Nick finally tagged back in the match! Nick was all over Doyle with stick-and-move offense until Matt joined for stereo enzigiris. Nick stomped Doyle on the way back in the ring and dove onto Davis on the floor. Doyle got hung up over the ropes and Nick came off the top with a crossbody to Doyle that knocked him over Matt and into a near fall! Nick hit a knee to Doyle and covered, so Davis tried to break it up with a senton only for Nick to move! The Bucks worked over Davis and Doyle in opposite corners and went to switch sides for a high-five in the middle of the ring, but were blocked by their bigger opponents. Matt and Nick ran Davis into Doyle and took both down with a Sliced Bread/leg sweep combo!

Nick and Matt scaled the ropes and counted down the crowd, but they took too long and were met by Davis and Doyle on the ropes. The Bucks fought back and eventually flipped over both for sunset flip powerbombs! The Bucks connected on the senton/elbow drop combo on the second attempt, but it wasn’t enough to win the match. With Davis and Doyle on the floor, Matt flew through the ropes with a double boot and then lowered the ropes for Nick to hit a huge dive. Instead, Nick was caught and thrown into Matt, who was still hanging over the ropes! In the ring, Davis and Doyle sandwiched Matt with lariats in the middle of the mat. Doyle hit Matt with a sitout powerbomb and threw him to Davis, who bounced Matt into the turnbuckles and back over for a high-angle Chaos Theory German Suplex! Nick got back in time to break it up!

Davis tried to go after Nick on the apron, so Nick moved, and Davis spilled to the floor. Nick came back in with a gut shot and facebuster to Doyle and continued with a tornado DDT to Davis on the floor! The Bucks unleashed a Superkick Party on Doyle, and he fought through all of them until a pair of Superkicks dropped him to his knees. The Bucks hit him with a BTE Trigger, and Doyle kicked out by throwing Matt through the ropes to the floor! Doyle stopped the Bucks’ Superkick Party encore by powerbombing both at the same time!

Davis tagged back in and tried to rebound clothesline both Bucks, but got a Superkick for his troubles. However, Davis bounced back from the ropes and got an enzigiri on Nick. He followed with a gutbuster on Matt. He managed to rebound Nick and then Matt into lariats. Davis picked both up and connected on a double piledriver! Somehow Nick kicked out! Doyle tagged back in and put Matt on the top turnbuckles while Davis was on the top rope in the adjacent corner. Nick came out of nowhere to take Davis to the mat with a leaping cutter! Nick went to help Matt with Doyle and pulled Doyle down for a huge German Suplex! Matt jumped off Nick’s back to hit a Canadian Destroyer on Davis. They hit him with a BTE Trigger, and Davis somehow kicked out to stay alive!

Nick fired the crowd up while Matt tried to lift up Davis for a Tombstone, but he couldn’t, so Nick got back down and helped get Davis in position. Before Nick could springboard, Doyle pulled him down to the apron. Nick answered with a kick to the chest and a diving hurricanrana, but Doyle kept control and powerbombed Nick onto the timekeeper’s table! Back in the ring, Davis dumped Matt with Close Your Eyes and Count to Three. Matt only counted to two!

Davis and Doyle tried to sandwich Matt in the middle with lariats, but he moved and they nailed each other. Then he got Doyle to knock Davis over the top and rolled up Doyle for a near fall. Matt caught a stunned Doyle with a pair of boots out of the corner and tried another jumping hurricanrana only for Doyle to pull him up for a powerbomb. Before Doyle could plant Matt, Nick flew in to nail Doyle from behind and switch the momentum to Matt, who hooked Doyle’s leg for the three-count as Nick took Davis out on the floor!

The Kasper Brothers Arrive in AEW!

The Young Bucks didn’t have long to celebrate, as they were met by their next challengers, the Motor City Machine Guns, Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin! Shelley and Sabin embraced Matt and Nick as long-time friends and rivals. All four men raised each other’s hands, but a siren played throughout the arena, and THE KASPER BROTHERS WERE HERE! Jacob and Drew Kasper, a pair of wrestling wrecking machines, ran to the ring and paced around the Bucks and MCMG. After pausing for a brief moment, they attacked the Bucks! Sabin and Shelley tried to help, but they were quickly subdued. Jacob picked up Sabin, and Drew went to the top, but before they could do anything else, FTR and Stoke came marching down the aisle! Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler got right in the faces of the Kasper Brothers, only to peel off and attack the Bucks as the Kaspers went back to work on MCMG! Jacob tossed Sabin to Drew, who ran him into the corner, and Jacob followed with a splash! FTR threw Matt to Jacob, who held Matt up for Drew to hit a backcracker and Jacob to finish with a fallaway slam!

FTR and the Kaspers went to pick up the AEW World Tag Team Titles at the same time, which immediately caused tension. Stokely, who knows the Kasper Brothers very well, was able to calm things down by taking the titles away while giving half-hearted hugs to Jacob and Drew. Somehow, Stoke was the one left celebrating with the titles after all that chaos, but Jacob and Drew each lifted him for much bigger hugs. Then Stoke hugged FTR. He looked downright giddy at the developments.

AEW World Trios Championship Texas Death Match: Swerve Strickland & The New Level (Austin Creed and Kofi) def. "Hangman" Adam Page & Brodido (ROH World Champion Bandido and Brody King) (c)

After Swerve and The New Level arrived in matching white and black gear, we were shown Brody King in a saloon asking for a Shirley Temple. Someone objected, so King wiped out the whole bar while Hangman waited outside. King came out carrying a pair of patrons when someone charged from out of nowhere and got floored by Page’s lariat. He threw a couple more sad souls aside and took a shot before the guy who bothered King earlier hit Page from behind. They threw him into the middle of the street, where Bandido was waiting. They strapped the AEW World Trios Titles on horses and rode away. Back in the arena, The Good, The Bad and El Guapo made their way to the ring wearing the new version of the AEW World Trios Titles, which are now adorned with side plates dedicated to Benjamin “PAC” Satterley.

All six men faced off across from each other at the bell and briefly exchanged words before Bandido nailed Swerve and the brawls ensued! Bandido and Kofi wound up in the ring, where Bandido hit Kofi with a 21-Plex! King returned to the ring to assist Bandido with a moonsault to The New Level and Swerve on the floor! King rolled back into the ring with three sets of skewers! With The New Level and Swerve on the apron, Page, King and Bandido stabbed them and left the skewers in their scalps! The champions went for a triple dive, so the challengers met them with triple chairs! Creed and Kofi were beside themselves seeing the skewers in each other’s heads, so it was Swerve who had to pull them out.

Creed smashed King into the barricade while seated in a chair, so King quickly knocked him away and Creed scurried under the ring. When he came out, Creed was holding a trombone wrapped in barbed wire! King tried to stop him, but Creed pushed the barb-covered brass into King’s forehead! Creed played the trombone to show its primary function still worked! Then, Creed appeared to be trying to remove barbed wire from a table until Page stalked after him. Page attacked, but Creed threw him into the barricade and bit Page in the head! Creed went back to work on the table, so Page threw him into the barricade. We saw King pouring blood while Page wrapped his arm in barbed wire from the table. Before he could do anything with it, Kofi connected with a gut shot that had to knock the wind out of Page. They returned to the ring, where Page leveled Kofi, Creed and then Swerve with the barbed-wire-covered arm! Page put the wire in Kofi’s mouth and pulled back on it until Creed came to stop him. Page booted him down and gave Creed the same wire treatment until Swerve hit Page in the back with a chair. Bandido nailed Swerve, but Swerve came back with a nasty chair shot.

Swerve was still pouring blood from the skewers as he and Bandido battled in the corner on the top rope. King set up five chairs for Bandido, but was quickly pulled back to the floor. Swerve and Bandido jockeyed for position on the ropes with Swerve lifting Bandido high in the air only for Bandido to somehow reverse it into an elevated DDT on the bed of chairs! Creed and Kofi double-teamed King in the corner and Creed decided to taste some blood. King knocked both men away and went to the floor to retrieve a barbed-wire-covered table. He set it up in the corner and threw Creed at it, but Creed slid to put on the brakes. King cracked him with an elbow strike that put Creed into the barbed wire in a seated position. King tried to make it worse with a cannonball, but Creed moved in time and King destroyed the table with the barbed wire stuck to his legs!

With King down on the outside, Kofi and Creed piled the broken table, barbed wire and whatever else they could find on top of him. Creed hit a “BANG BANG” and dropped a Cactus Elbow onto the rubble covering King! Page knocked Kofi down on the floor with a big boot and got in the ring. The crowd buzzed because it was Page and Swerve all alone. Both men surveyed the situation and sat across from each other in the middle of the ring with staple guns! Swerve went first and Page answered, which turned into an exchange of staples to the chest! Bandido swung Swerve around, so Bandido got a staple to the chest! Swerve and Page dropped the weapons and hauled off on each other, which only riled up the crowd even more! Page managed to knock Swerve down and got to the apron for a Buckshot Lariat, but Prince Nana got in Page’s face, so Page grabbed him for a Deadeye on the apron! Swerve hit Page with a low blow to save Nana!

Bandido nailed Swerve with a kick, so Kofi put a roundhouse kick on Bandido. Page wiped out Kofi, so Creed got Page with a thrust kick and King dropped Creed with a discus lariat. King stuck Swerve with a piledriver and went to the floor to get a heavy-duty work glove covered in thumbtacks. He chopped Swerve across the chest and left plenty of tacks buried! King put the Iron Claw on Creed with the tacks! Creed broke free, so King thumped him with a forearm. King pulled a massive bag of thumbtacks from under the ring and emptied them all on the mat. McGuinness referred to the image as “sparkling death.”

Creed turned things around with a Fisherman’s Buster to King in the tacks! Creed felt his own blood and it seemed to charge him up. He nailed Bandido with a dive on one side and Page on the other! He repeated the cycle and hit a third dive on Bandido before chucking him into the steel steps. Creed called for Nana to bring a bag, and from it Creed pulled out a Power Glove! King nailed Creed twice, so Creed came roaring back with a Shoryuken, and the Power Glove exploded on impact! The crowd couldn’t believe what they just saw, and Creed was fired up!

The New Level fought Page and Bandido up the ramp, where Creed wanted to use the fire from a garbage can on the stage. Bandido got away, and Creed came after him with a crushing spear. Kofi went to jump off Creed’s back to attack Hangman, but Hangman struck first and exploded a set of light tubes on Kofi’s head! Page dropped Creed with a Deadeye on the concrete, and Page may have hurt his own knee in the process. Back toward the ring, King put Swerve through a barbed-wire-covered table with a Gonzo Bomb from the apron!

Somehow, Creed and Kofi were back on their feet and stormed to the ring to fight Page. With Page alone, Kofi set him up in a chair so Creed could dropkick Page into the barricade. Creed and Kofi laid Page over four chairs and unveiled a window pane, which they placed on Page. Kofi got on the timekeeper’s area and double stomped the pane of glass into Page’s stomach! Kofi and Creed set up a barbed wire table in the ring while Swerve hammered away on Bandido. Nana brought the bag back again and Creed retrieved padlocks on chains and gave one to Kofi, too. Kofi smashed it over King’s head! King crumpled to the stairs, so Creed put a padlock in his mouth and held him for Kofi to hit a T.I.P. in the face! King was laid out in a bloody heap.

In the ring, Kofi and Creed held Bandido over the table with Swerve perched on the top rope for a stomp, but Page somehow got back in the ring and started fighting off The New Level! Creed overwhelmed Page and plunged him into the barbed wire! They rolled Page out of the ring and reset Bandido on the table. However, King was back on his feet and in the ring! He shoved Bandido away, so Swerve hit King with the House Call! Swerve called for Bandido to be held up again, but this time, Bandido fought back! He caught Creed with a knee to the face and powerbombed Kofi through the barbed wire table!

Bandido went to the top to meet Swerve, but Swerve was able to knock Bandido back to the mat and called for a chain from Nana! He wrapped it around Bandido’s neck and yanked it upwards to choke him out, so Bandido managed to pull Swerve down to save himself. Bandido hopped to the top rope and came down with a Frog Splash on Swerve’s back to smash him into the thumbtacks! Bandido threw Swerve over the top with the chain to choke him, but Bandido’s hand seemed to slip on the blood, and Swerve was able to fight back with the chain wrapped around his fist. He ripped the top of Bandido’s mask off, and the crowd booed as Page came back in to help with a barrage of punches! Page picked up a chair, so Swerve kicked it in his face! Swerve made sure to squeeze Page’s head to drip blood into Swerve’s mouth.

That may have set off Page, as he wore a chair out on Swerve, Creed and Kofi with an incensed look on his blood-covered face. With Swerve down on his knees, Page held a chair high above his head to finish the job and Swerve maniacally laughed at him through the blood, which he then spit in Page’s face! Page hesitated and Swerve took advantage! Swerve hit Hangman with a Deadeye! Nana and Swerve walked up the ramp to retrieve a cinderblock, which Swerve knew exactly how to use. Bandido nailed Swerve from behind to save Page and then wrapped his own knee in barbed wire. He picked Swerve up for an X Knee and connected with the barbs to the ear! Bandido put the cinderblock down in the middle of the ring and tried for a 21-Plex onto it, but Creed was there to catch Bandido, and The New Level drove Bandido face-first into the cinderblock!

Somehow King was still moving and pulled Kofi and Creed from the ring. He beat them into a corner and sat them on chairs before retrieving a wooden frame wrapped in barbed wire to place on top of them. King backed up and smashed the frame into The New Level with a dangerous crossbody against the barricade. King got up and was immediately choked by Swerve with barbed wire before Swerve dropped King on the steel steps with a Vertebreaker! In the ring, Page tried to get out of Swerve’s grasp by pushing barbed wire into his head! Swerve threw Page to the apron to escape the Deadeye, but Page held on and came back in with a Buckshot Lariat to the back of Swerve’s head! He hit another from the front! Page fired up the crowd through a crimson mask and tried for a third, but Swerve was waiting with the edge of the chair to the top of Page’s head! The referee got to nine for both men, but Swerve got to his feet and delivered a final House Call to Hangman leaving Page unable to answer the ten-count. Swerve Strickland and The New Level are once again AEW World Trios Champions! Swerve was cackling while holding the title and then gathered The New Level to celebrate in the aisle while King, Page and Bandido were left in blood and without gold.

Samoa Joe vs. “Jungle” Jack Perry 2: This Wednesday on Dynamite!

Travel issues kept Samoa Joe from being at Full Gear, but he still had some words for “Jungle” Jack Perry. Joe wondered why Perry would be such a fool. Everyone told him not to mess with Joe, and Joe beat his ass in France. The world told Perry to back away, but no, Perry is still around, ever the fool. Last week, Joe said The Opps had a perception problem, and Perry is evidence of that. So this week, Perry gets his wish. Joe will be at Dynamite, and he will beat Perry mercilessly again.

“And Jack, don’t worry about shaking my hand. You’ll be doing plenty of shaking when I’m strangling you unconscious in the middle of that ring!”

AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship Match: Wrathlander (Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron) def. The Brawling Birds (Alex Windsor and Jamie Hayter) (c)

Before their entrance, we saw Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron brainstorming their first PPV entrance as Wrathlander. After a few failed ideas, Billy Gunn suggested they use pyro. They blew him off and Statlander had an idea. As the two appeared to be ready, Tony Khan burst in and said their video package was over and it was time for their match, so let’s go! They pulled their business suits off each other at the top of the ramp before running down to the ring.

Windsor and Statlander started things off, and it was Windsor who overpowered Statlander and knocked her down to the mat so Hayter could tag in. Hayter and Statlander exchanged reversals on suplexes until Statlander finally came through. She squished Hayter in the corner and tagged in Cameron for some rapid-fire double-team offense, including a tilt-a-whirl splash that got a two-count. Hayter was able to make the tag out to Windsor, but Cameron took Windsor down with a flying headscissors.

Cameron slid in front of Windsor to distract her, and Statlander took out Windsor from the side. Statlander hit a cannonball off the apron onto Windsor, while Cameron hit boots to Hayter on the floor. However, the Brawling Birds came back. Hayter hit a crossbody on Statlander, and Windsor hit a cannonball on Cameron from the apron.

Back in the ring, Windsor covered Statlander for a two-count and tagged in Hayter. Hayter hit a running big boot for a two-count of her own. The Birds tried for a double team, but Statlander ran through them with a double clothesline and tagged in Cameron. Cameron changed direction and kicked Windsor in the head, but Hayter saved Windsor.

Windsor and Hayter were able to overwhelm Cameron with a double team of their own, and Hayter covered Cameron for a two-count. Hayter cleared Statlander out of her corner and brought Cameron across the ring to tag in Windsor. Windsor punished Cameron, snapmared her over, and kicked her in the spine. Cameron used some elbows to break Windsor’s grasp and hit a back suplex, then made the tag to Statlander. Meanwhile, Windsor tagged in Hayter. Statlander met Hayter with blows in the middle of the ring, and then they exchanged shots against the ropes. Statlander used a spinning fisherman’s buster to get a two-count.

Cameron came back with a running knee to a kneeling Hayter, but Windsor nailed Cameron with a short kick. Statlander booted Windsor and then came off the ropes for a diving forearm. Hayter hit a backbreaker on Statlander, and the Birds dumped Statlander with a double Death Valley driver. They suplexed Cameron onto Statlander, and Hayter covered Cameron, but Cameron kicked out to keep the match alive.

The Birds tried to sandwich Cameron in the middle of the ring, but she moved and they collided with each other. Cameron grabbed Hayter in a crucifix, and Statlander superkicked Hayter so Cameron could roll her over for the pin attempt, but Windsor was there to break it up. Windsor dropped Cameron with a short clothesline, and Statlander laid out Windsor, and all four women were down.

Hayter put Cameron on her shoulders while Windsor went to the top rope, but then Statlander pulled Windsor out of the corner and put her on her shoulders. This turned into a mid-match chicken fight until Windsor brought Statlander over with a Poisonrana. Hayter tried to hit Cameron with a German suplex, but Cameron ducked it. Cameron missed a kick, and Hayter came back with a huge right hand. Cameron tried to exchange with Hayter and actually got the better of her, but when Hayter went for a Hayterade, Cameron avoided it and turned it into a single-leg crab. Windsor crushed Cameron with a thrust kick to break the hold and then dropped her with a running clothesline.

Hayter hit Cameron with the Hayterade and covered, but Statlander broke up the pin. Statlander knocked Hayter down with a dropkick and pulled Cameron to the corner to tag back in. She knocked Windsor into the Wrathlander corner, and then got sandwiched between Windsor and Hayter in the middle of the ring as they hit lariats. They set up Statlander for Two Birds, One Stone, but when Hayter hit the ropes, Cameron pulled her to the floor. Meanwhile, back in the ring, Statlander turned Windsor upside down and hit Staturday Night Fever while Cameron held Hayter on the floor. With Hayter not there to save her, Windsor was unable to kick out.

We have new AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions in Wrathlander! This is Harley Cameron’s second reign with the championship, and it’s Statlander’s first, which makes her a Triple Crown champion in the women’s division.

AEW National Championship Match: Ilja Dragunov def. AEW National Champion Tommaso Ciampa (c)

As you might expect, the crowd exploded at the bell for this one, with Dragunov trying to conduct them. While both men were intense, Dragunov and Ciampa had a bit of a feeling-out process in the early going, with Dragunov trying to keep Ciampa grounded on the mat. The two fired away at each other around the ring. Ciampa tried to slow things down with a headlock, but Dragunov took him over and rained down blows. Ciampa came back with blows of his own, and then Dragunov took him down to the mat with a waistlock.

A combo in the corner sent Ciampa to the outside. Dragunov went out after him, but Ciampa elbowed him in the back, and when Dragunov tried to get back in the ring, Ciampa knocked him back to the floor with a running knee. Ciampa returned to the floor and threw Dragunov into the barricade. He flipped him upside down into the opposite barricade to keep up the brutality, then put his foot across Dragunov’s face.

Dragunov fought back by pushing Ciampa into the barricade and chopping him on the commentary desk. He went to attack again, but Ciampa moved and Dragunov fell onto the desk. Ciampa followed up and sent Dragunov shoulder-first into the steel steps, then slammed Dragunov’s arm against the ring apron and continued to throw shots in the ring.

With Dragunov against the ropes, Ciampa continued to target the arm as Dragunov did what he could to keep some separation. Ciampa was relentless, dropping knees, kicking and ripping at the arm and elbow as the crowd tried to will Dragunov back into it. He was able to get some distance, but when he threw a chop with his bad arm, it caused him enough pain that Ciampa could recover and start fighting back.

Dragunov got away from a waistlock and reversed it, so Ciampa did the same and sent him into the ropes. When Dragunov tried to spin around the ropes, gripping the rope was just too painful, and he fell to the mat. Ciampa smelled blood in the water and caught him with a running knee to the face. Ciampa lowered his knee pad and measured Dragunov, but Dragunov dove forward and struck the knee.

Dragunov rolled Ciampa into a pinning predicament, and Ciampa kicked out. Dragunov did it again with a small package, and once again Ciampa kicked out. Dragunov took Ciampa down with a double leg and stomped him in the chest, then stomped the knee. A lariat was blocked, so Dragunov hit an enzigiri instead. He fired down on Ciampa’s now-injured right knee with elbows and strikes, then hit a quick senton splash on the knee.

Ciampa fought back, but Dragunov dropped him with one shot and deadlifted him off the mat for a German suplex. He kept waist control and bridged Ciampa over for a two-count. Ciampa tried to fight free of Dragunov’s grasp, but Dragunov adjusted and hit a side suplex instead. He backed up for a D-Bomb, but this time Ciampa kicked him away. Dragunov adjusted again and hit the D-Bomb to the back of Ciampa’s bad knee.

Dragunov tried to drag Ciampa to the corner, but Ciampa collapsed in pain. Dragunov put him on the top rope and chopped him before going up to meet him. Ciampa stopped another chop by biting Dragunov’s hand, stood up and hit an Air Raid Crash from the top rope. But Ciampa was in too much pain to take advantage.

Both men got back to their feet and hauled off on each other until Ciampa threw Dragunov to the outside and chopped him on the floor. He slammed Dragunov’s right arm repeatedly into the steel steps, then hit him with an Air Raid Crash off the steps to the edge of the top step. Ciampa threw Dragunov back in the ring and covered, but somehow Dragunov survived, and the match continued.

Ciampa tried to fight away from Dragunov’s waistlock on the apron and initially did, but on the second attempt Dragunov muscled up and dropped Ciampa on the apron with a German suplex. With Ciampa down on the floor, Dragunov hit a D-Bomb to Ciampa’s knee from the apron.

The two were back battling on the top rope, and Dragunov got Ciampa with a superplex. He went for a D-Bomb, but Ciampa got out of the way and locked in an armbreaker. Dragunov escaped by rolling through, but Ciampa caught him with a quick knee to the side of the head. Ciampa lowered his knee pad once again, which gave Dragunov the chance to come back with a huge lariat.

Dragunov charged across the ring for a D-Bomb, but Ciampa was quicker and caught him with a bicycle knee. Ciampa thought he had him, but Dragunov kicked out at two. Ciampa quickly locked on another armbreaker, and Dragunov rolled out of it. The two unleashed open-hand strikes in the middle of the ring. Neither man would go down, and with each strike, the crowd got louder and louder.

Dragunov took advantage of the energy and powerbombed Ciampa, then dropped a D-Bomb on top of him and fell on Ciampa for the three-count to become the new AEW National Champion. Dragunov celebrated his championship win with the crowd.

AEW Women’s World Championship Match: AEW Women’s World Champion “The CEO” Mercedes Moné (c) def. Death Riders’ “The Problem” Marina Shafir

After the traditional world championship match ring announcements, it was time for the AEW Women’s World Championship match. Shafir quickly took Moné down and exhibited her dominance with submissions. Moné faked a test of strength and kicked Shafir to move her to the corner. Moné tried to come off the top rope, and Shafir caught her but was unable to turn it into a submission. However, Shafir came back with multiple judo throws and worked over Moné’s arm, taking her down to the mat. Moné tried to beg off, so Shafir pulled her up and put Moné on her back, but Moné was able to back up onto the top turnbuckle, where she fought Shafir off and grabbed Shafir’s head with her legs before ramming Shafir into the middle turnbuckle.

Shafir was laid across the bottom rope, and Moné stomped through her. Moné mocked Shafir’s shadow boxing, which drew boos from the crowd. She went back to work on Shafir’s left arm, but Shafir was able to keep battling out of submissions. However, Shafir was not able to mount much offense as Moné kept her grounded. Shafir finally got back to her feet and flipped Moné inside out to break the hold.

Moné missed the charge, and Shafir took her down with a couple of kicks and a uranage that got a two-count. Shafir nearly trapped Moné for a three-count, then sent her to the corner. Moné kicked Shafir away and came off with a Meteora that got another two-count. Moné tried to slap Shafir, so, much like Gabe Kidd, Shafir headbutted the turnbuckle and came right back at Moné. Moné tried to hit her twice, and Shafir blocked both before going into Daniel Garcia’s dance. Moné was clearly frustrated as the crowd loved everything Shafir was doing. Moné missed a couple of wild shots, so Shafir peppered her with shots of her own. However, Moné was able to get Shafir back down and continued trying to stretch out Shafir’s arm.

When Moné almost hit a cross armbreaker, Shafir rolled on top of her and put her foot in Moné’s mouth. Moné nearly caught Shafir in the Statement Maker, but Shafir escaped Moné’s grasp and locked in the Brutalizer. Moné rolled back on it to catch Shafir in a pinning predicament, which Shafir kicked out of. Moné rolled back into the Statement Maker. Shafir crawled toward the ropes, so Moné kicked her away from them. Shafir got back to her feet with Moné on her back, so Moné elbowed her, and Shafir had to drop Moné back to the mat.

Moné threw Shafir to the apron and kicked her left arm, sending Shafir to the floor. Moné tried to dive on top of her, but Shafir rolled through it and captured Moné in Mother’s Milk. Moné tapped out, but it didn’t count because they were outside the ring. Shafir threw Moné back in, but when Shafir stayed on top of her, Moné tried to jackknife her for a quick pin. Shafir escaped. Moné tried to cross-body Shafir, but Shafir caught it, headbutted Moné back to the mat and hung on to Moné’s legs to go into a giant swing. The Phoenix crowd absolutely loved that, but Shafir needed a few extra seconds to recover.

With Moné hanging over the second rope, Shafir came around to trap Moné’s head with her legs and spike her into the apron. That was brutal. Moné was able to fight Shafir off and get back on the apron, and she tried to come off with a Meteora, but Shafir caught her with a kick on the way down. Shafir threw Moné back in the ring, but Moné swept Shafir’s legs out on the apron and followed with a nasty Meteora. Shafir picked up Moné on the apron, and Moné tried to shimmy free, but Shafir gathered herself and powerslammed Moné on the corner of the apron. Shafir tried to work Moné over near the ring post, but Moné pulled Shafir through, so Shafir collided with the steel.

Moné threw Shafir back in and hit knees to the back of Shafir’s neck. She hit a lung blower and flipped over Shafir for the Statement Maker, but Shafir rolled over and got out of it once again. Shafir threw some kicks at Moné, who responded with a couple of her own, but when Moné went to strikes, it was a mistake, as Shafir dropped her rather quickly with a kick to the head. Shafir hooked up Moné for a Death Rider, but Moné rolled around it and into the Statement Maker, which Moné turned into the Brutalizer. The crowd booed mercilessly. Shafir looked Moné in the eyes and chucked her to the mat, then locked on a Brutalizer of her own, which brought the crowd to their feet.

It looked like it might be over as Moné struggled to get to the ropes. She rolled back on top of Shafir, pinned her shoulders to the mat and hooked her foot on the rope, out of the referee’s view, for just enough leverage to steal the three-count and retain the AEW Women’s World Championship. Moné celebrated on the ramp while Shafir seethed in the ring after having arguably the match of her life.

After the match, we heard from Tommaso Ciampa, who was beside himself following his AEW National Championship loss, but declared his intentions of being part of the 2026 Continental Classic and said you’ll have to kill him to stop him.

Anarchy in the Arena: The Cut ("Switchblade" Jay White, David Finlay, Clark Connors, Ace Austin, Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn) def. Death Riders (AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley, Gabe Kidd and Daniel Garcia) & The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong)

The Cut made their way out first, followed by The Conglomeration, who came through the crowd just like the Death Riders usually do. The bell had barely rung when The Cut attacked. Then "Wild Thing" hit instead of the Death Riders’ usual music, a first in a long time, and Jon Moxley marched to the ring with Daniel Garcia and Gabe Kidd, all three in Death Riders jerseys. The brawl spilled all over the arena, with three screens of coverage and no hope of keeping all 12 men in line.

When the music died, everyone returned to ringside and The Cut took control of Garcia in the ring. Garcia danced, and DMX’s "Party Up (Up in Here)" blared as the crowd sang along, including longtime DMX fan Tony Schiavone. Moxley and Cassidy delivered mounted punches to their opponents in opposite corners, then pulled out forks and stabbed at their opponents’ heads. Kidd and O’Reilly danced on the outside while The Cut jumped back on Moxley. Finlay was caught in the ropes with Moxley trying to stab him, and White went to help but backed off. Strong took over on White on the floor. Ace Austin pulled a spoon from a backpack, but Moxley took him down and knocked him from the ring. On the floor, Moxley locked White in a figure four.

The Phoenix Suns Gorilla then came out, and The Cut thought he was on their side. He sprayed Austin Gunn, then Colten, and went for the T-shirt cannon, but Ace Austin kicked and squashed the Gorilla, becoming public enemy number one and adding insult to gorilla injury.

Moxley collected skewers and went after the fingertips and eyes of Colten. Cassidy dumped broken glass from his backpack. Finlay put Cassidy on the top turnbuckle, but Cassidy’s DDT attempt was caught and Finlay flipped him into the glass twice. White jammed a chair into Moxley’s gut on the floor, but Moxley recovered. Cassidy backdropped Finlay into the glass, and Moxley dragged Finlay’s back through the shards before locking on an STF in the glass until White made the save.

As DMX ended and the boos grew, White found barbed wire while Finlay directed traffic. Finlay and Connors held up a Cut shirt, offering Kidd a spot. Kidd removed his jersey, put on the Cut shirt and showed it off. He grabbed a chair and put it to Moxley’s neck while Connors held him, then backed up and fired it at Finlay’s head. DMX started up again as Kidd and Moxley clotheslined the Gunns over the top rope. White hit a cutthroat suplex on Kidd, Moxley hit a cutter on White on the glass, and Colten hit a reverse neckbreaker on Moxley on the glass. Cassidy hit a spinning DDT on Colten, Austin Gunn spun Cassidy into the glass, and Garcia hurt himself on a Twist and Shout into the glass. Connors shoulder blocked Garcia, Strong hit a front slam on Connors into the glass, and Finlay hit a backbreaker over his knee on Strong.

Finlay and Ace Austin knocked O’Reilly into the ropes, but he rebounded both times, and the second rebound clothesline dropped both. Moxley locked an armbar on White while O’Reilly choked Finlay. Ace Austin then stabbed Moxley and O’Reilly in the head with a spork, and Moxley was bleeding. Cassidy came in and found Austin’s spork stuck in the top turnbuckle, pulled it out and hit Austin with it in a Superman punch. The Gunns dropped Cassidy, and Kidd came in with headbutts on Austin Gunn in the corner. Colten missed a splash and Kidd headbutted him too. Kidd celebrated, but Connors swigged a beer and smashed the bottle over Kidd’s head.

Strong threw Cassidy into the Gunns for a DDT and hit a uranage on Ace Austin through a chair. Colten dropkicked Strong, and Austin Gunn hit a Famouser into the chair. White covered Strong for two. Kidd was busted open. White pulled a Switchblade-logo branding iron from under the ring and Connors heated it with a torch.

Marina Shafir jumped on White’s back, but he dumped her and Strong hit a jumping knee. Shafir took out Connors and faced Strong, but Ace Austin nailed Strong from behind and knocked down Shafir. Austin and Austin Gunn held Shafir for the branding iron, but Wheeler Yuta flew in with a double dropkick from the top rope, clotheslined White over the top rope, and sent Connors into the second rope, where Shafir spiked him into the apron with her feet. Yuta hit a Psycho Knee on Ace Austin, and Austin Gunn raked Yuta’s eyes until Cassidy saved him with a Stundog Millionaire on Austin Gunn. Cassidy offered Yuta a hug, and Yuta seemed about to reciprocate, but Shane Taylor Promotions attacked by surprise. The Infantry’s Shawn Dean and Carlie Bravo took care of Yuta, Taylor wiped out Cassidy on the floor, and all three powerbombed Yuta through a table. Cassidy answered with a springboard somersault dive onto all three.

In the ring, Moxley hit a Paradigm Shift on White, but Mercedes Moné hit Moxley with a low blow, berated him and flipped him off. The lights went out, and when they came back on, KeMalito was in the ring facing Moné. She mocked his height, he kicked her shin, and a multiple-revolution headscissors sent her out. Willow Nightingale Pounced Moné outside. KeMalito overcame The Infantry, headbutted Taylor below the belt, and hit the Area Code kick, but Dean bopped him and Bravo dropkicked him to the floor. The Infantry and Taylor celebrated, brought KeMalito back in and held him for Taylor’s second-rope splash.

While that was going down, a blaring horn sounded from outside the arena. A white pickup truck pulled up and Claudio Castagnoli stepped out, the first time he had been seen since The Cut took him out. He walked out to the top of the ramp, took off his hat and rushed Austin Gunn, who threw a trash can at him and missed. Castagnoli wiped him out, gorilla-pressed Ace Austin onto White, then leapt over White and Austin to hit a running uppercut on Connors against the barricade. He kept up a path of destruction with more uppercuts around ringside until he chased White back inside, where Shane Taylor Promotions triple-teamed him. He turned a double team by The Infantry into a double suplex on Bravo and Dean.

Taylor faced off with Castagnoli, and Colten Gunn came in with a trash can, but Castagnoli quickly subdued him and sent him back to the floor. Taylor landed a shot. Castagnoli fired back with an uppercut and picked him up for a body slam, but White, Connors and Finlay ran in to save Taylor and attacked Castagnoli. Finlay went for the shillelagh that had taken Castagnoli out, but Castagnoli kicked it away. Ace Austin tried a poison rana, but Castagnoli caught him, grabbed Connors from the front and hit a Giant Swing on both men at the same time. Austin Gunn came in with a trash can and put it on Castagnoli, but he escaped, swung Gunn into the can and then put it on Gunn’s head.

White tried to attack from behind, but Castagnoli stopped him, so Taylor went after Castagnoli and choked him on the mat. The Infantry brought in a table, but Castagnoli fought them off and dropped them with a double clothesline. Taylor and The Infantry fought back and put Castagnoli on the table, but he got off, knocked The Infantry out of the ring and powerbombed Taylor from the top rope through the table. White hit Castagnoli with a chair from behind, and Castagnoli threw out a piece of the table, so White hit him again. This time Castagnoli threw the rest of the table out of the ring. White went to hit him again, but Castagnoli caught the chair and threw it to the floor. White threw up the Gunns Up sign at Castagnoli, who threw him into the corner and unloaded with uppercuts.

That set off the Death Riders, who launched a never-ending attack in the corner, and of course The Conglomeration joined in. Even KeMalito got involved on White. Castagnoli then held KeMalito up and threw him onto all three members of Shane Taylor Promotions. Kidd hit a rebound clothesline on White, Garcia locked White in the Dragon Tamer, and Moxley stomped him. Moxley covered White, but The Cut was there to break it up. The brawl spilled back out to the floor as the ring emptied.

Ace Austin tried to get a head of steam and put O’Reilly through a table on the floor, but Strong caught him with a kick to the head. O’Reilly got back up and helped Strong suplex Austin through the table, leaving all three men down. Back at the top of the ramp, Connors speared Cassidy through the set. At ringside, The Gunns hit 3:10 to Yuma on O’Reilly on the Spanish announce table. Connors then lit a table on fire and Finlay powerbombed Kidd through it!

Back in the ring, Moxley overcame a double team by The Gunns and knocked them to the floor. But White came in and hit Moxley with the Blade Runner into the glass shards, and pinned him to get the win for The Cut.

After the match, Mick Foley caught up with Adam Copeland in his locker room. He wanted to know if Copeland was going to bounce back from this loss because it didn’t seem like it. He wondered what was on Copeland’s mind. Copeland wanted the match to answer a lot of questions.

“And it did. It did.”

Copeland left and Foley told him to hang in there.

Before the main event, Nick Wayne showed up in a suite and addressed “chat,” saying with all his winmaxxing, he needs to relax with a “little bit of the bubbly!” Also, he wanted to say he beat Chris Jericho…twice!

AEW World Championship Match: AEW World Champion Will Ospreay (c) def. Don Callis Family’s "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher

Fletcher arrived from high in the sky before being lowered down to the entrance ramp. Ospreay walked through the back, but not before some final well wishes from United Empire.

After Justin Roberts’ introduction of the AEW World Champion, it was time for the main event, and the crowd exploded at the bell, showing support for both men. Even though Ospreay and Fletcher know each other well, there was a feeling-out process early. Both the Don Callis Family and United Empire were backing their respective competitors at ringside.

A collar-and-elbow tie-up turned into a shot from Ospreay that sent Fletcher into the corner.

Fletcher called for a test of strength and held his own, being the stronger of the two. Ospreay came back briefly, but Fletcher pinned him to the mat. Ospreay escaped, and Fletcher hit a shoulder block and a stiff shot that dropped him. Ospreay answered with a hurricanrana, and the two traded reversals on big moves. When Ospreay went for the Hidden Blade, Fletcher simply stood up. Ospreay fell to the mat, rolled to the outside and took a moment with United Empire before returning.

Ospreay tried to keep Fletcher on the mat, but Fletcher bounced back, so Ospreay hit a side suplex and chopped him from corner to corner. Fletcher answered with knees to stop him. Ospreay knocked Fletcher out of the ring and tried to dive, but Fletcher caught him and went to lawn dart him into the barricade. Ospreay jumped onto the barricade and came back to knock Fletcher down. He threw Fletcher back in and looked for a springboard forearm, but Fletcher dropped and rolled to the outside. Ospreay went up top, Fletcher stopped him, and Ospreay kicked him away and ran the apron for a hurricanrana, but Fletcher caught it and powerbombed him onto the corner.

Fletcher threw Ospreay into the corner, knocked him down, and went for a pin that Ospreay kicked out of. He toyed with and almost mocked Ospreay as he stumbled to his feet, clearly shaken, then stopped him with a body slam while keeping wrist control and slammed him again. Fletcher taunted United Empire, specifically Andrade El Ídolo, which gave Ospreay the chance to battle back. He hit a corkscrew kick off the ropes and both men were down. A springboard forearm got a two-count, and a running boot in the corner followed. When Fletcher charged, Ospreay got his feet up again, then hit a forearm to the back of his neck. Ospreay ran the ropes, but Fletcher dumped him with a Michinoku Driver for a near fall, and showed a little frustration.

Fletcher tried a brainbuster, but Ospreay got out, so Fletcher adjusted to a half-and-half suplex, caught him again, and hit a second. He cracked Ospreay against the ropes and pulled him onto the apron in front of United Empire. Ospreay elbowed free, they traded strikes until Fletcher landed a few in a row, and Ospreay came back with a thrust kick. He tried an OsCutter, but Fletcher blocked it. When Fletcher tried another brainbuster, Ospreay got away, stayed on the apron, rolled Fletcher into the Styles Clash position, and jumped off the apron to hit it on the floor.

That gave Don Callis concern, and he marched all the way around the ring to check on Fletcher while keeping his distance. Fletcher dove in to beat the count, Ospreay caught him with a dropkick as he rolled in, and an OsCutter got another near fall. The two traded shots, with Fletcher clearly working with one arm but continuing to fight back, until Ospreay took the lead. He dropped Fletcher to the mat from his shoulders and hit a spinning kick to the back of his neck, but when he went for another OsCutter, Fletcher moved and Ospreay fell to the mat. Fletcher hit a one-armed high-angle powerbomb for two, lay back in pain, then picked Ospreay up and dropped him with a lariat. They exchanged reversals off the ropes, Fletcher went for a brainbuster, and Ospreay turned it into a Stundog Millionaire. Ospreay then took a big running boot in the corner and a sheer drop brainbuster, but he kicked out to keep his reign alive.

Fletcher was beside himself in frustration.

With Ospreay’s back turned in the corner, Fletcher ran across the ring and kicked him in the back of the neck, caught him as he fell out, and threw him away. Ospreay jumped to the second rope and came down with an OsCutter that stunned Fletcher for a two-count. He looked exhausted but willed himself up as the crowd picked up his energy. Ospreay hit body shots that did serious damage, and you could hear the pain in Fletcher’s voice as he crumpled, clutching his midsection. Fletcher came back with a thrust kick, but Ospreay trapped his arms and continued with the body shots, dropping him again as Fletcher begged for help. Ospreay locked in an abdominal stretch, adjusted for more pressure, and switched to an octopus.

Fletcher was in big trouble, but threw all his energy into spinning Ospreay around and lawn darting him into the corner. He put Ospreay on the top rope and hit a shot to stun him, but Ospreay slipped under Fletcher, trapped his head in the turnbuckle, and hit the Cheeky Nandos kick. When Ospreay measured for a Hidden Blade, Fletcher countered with a huge lariat. He went for a brainbuster, but Ospreay rolled him into a hurricanrana, picked him up for a Styles Clash, and Fletcher kicked out. A quick Hidden Blade got another two. Both United Empire and the Don Callis Family looked concerned this deep into the match.

Ospreay pulled Fletcher to the corner and went up top, but Fletcher met him with a rising enzuigiri and hit a second-rope brainbuster. Fletcher covered, one, two, and Ospreay kicked out as the crowd went wild. Fletcher pushed Ospreay to the opposite corner and ripped off the top turnbuckle pad, so referee Paul Turner tried to pull him away, but Fletcher pushed Turner. Callis got a little too close, so United Empire came over to cut him off. Fletcher went up to bring Ospreay down with a brainbuster, but Ospreay escaped, floated over the back, and pulled Fletcher’s leg out so he hit the exposed turnbuckle. Ospreay hit a Hidden Blade to the back of Fletcher’s head and another to the front, but collapsed, unable to take advantage.

Fletcher was busted wide open. As he tried to pull himself up the ropes, an ice-cold Ospreay cracked him with a hook kick to the chin and stalked him. Fletcher threw a completely ineffective forearm and missed another weak shot, and Ospreay tagged him with two more hook kicks and kept laying them in until Fletcher crumpled. Ospreay took a moment, then rained down elbows on the back of Fletcher’s head and neck. Fletcher finally got to the ropes and Turner tried to pull Ospreay away, but Ospreay dragged him back to the middle, adjusted his elbow pad, and aimed at him. Fletcher seemed to know it was coming, and as Ospreay went for the Hidden Blade, he collapsed to the mat. When Ospreay went to pick him up, Fletcher cradled him for a close near fall. Ospreay had had enough, cracked him with a Hidden Blade to the face, and hit a Stormbreaker, but Fletcher kicked out.

Alex Windsor was shocked, Callis was stoic, and the crowd couldn’t believe it as they tried to will Ospreay to victory while the Don Callis Family tried to wake Fletcher up. Ospreay removed his elbow pad completely and pointed at Fletcher once more. Defiant on his knees, with blood pouring down his face and into his eyes, Fletcher told Ospreay over and over that he hated him, then told him to finish it. Ospreay went to oblige, but as he was about to connect with the Hidden Blade, Fletcher turned it into a backslide, and Ospreay barely kicked out in time.

Ospreay caught a kick from Fletcher and hit a spinning forearm followed by a headbutt. He went for a Stormbreaker, but Fletcher got out, and they exchanged reversals until Ospreay hit a running Hidden Blade. Fletcher kicked out at one and pounded the mat, telling Ospreay to come for more. Ospreay pointed at Fletcher, hit another Hidden Blade, and finished him with a Tiger Driver ’91 to get the pinfall and retain the AEW World Championship. What a Full Gear main event!

Ospreay celebrated with United Empire, with Andrade El Ídolo raising his arm while holding up his contract for an AEW World Championship match. Ospreay then had a few moments alone in the ring when a figure shrouded in black hit him from behind with something! The masked man revealed himself to be MJF with the Triple B! MJF stomped on Ospreay’s championship belt and held up his own before escaping through the crowd before United Empire could get back to the ring.
