AEW World Tag Team Championship Four-Way Match: Private Party (c) vs. The Outrunners vs. Kings of the Black Throne vs. The Acclaimed
We start things off with Marq Quen and Malakai Black circling the mat before Black takes Quen down. Marq fights to his feet as Malakai keeps on the arm, before Quen turns it around…only to be dropped right back down. Quen hits an arm drag on Malakai to turn things back in his favor, but Malakai takes a seated position on the canvas…dodging a running kick that leads to a standoff between them.
Bowens gets a tag to get into the ring, but so does Isiah as the two go at it until Bowens takes him down with a Famouser. Caster addresses the crowd, which causes some issues for Bowens when he can’t make a tag before Turbo tags in instead. Outrunners double-team Zay before Turbo goes back on the attack, sending Malakai out of the ring when he rushes in…only for Brody King to show off his power sending him to the mat off a tag.
The action spills to the outside as Brody takes everyone out, bringing Bowens back into the ring now as Malakai gets some licks in before the Kings take to the air to wear him down. Malakai hits a dive on the outside before bringing Quen into the ring, with the Kings wearing down him and Zay before the Acclaimed and Outrunners come into the ring once again.
This leads to a brawl between everyone, with the others focusing on wearing down the bigger Brody King leading to a group effort Scissor Me Timbers! The ring is cleared out aside from the Acclaimed and Outrunners, who look for a handshake but get attacked by the former champs. The current champs, however, get back into things for a double team on the Outrunners for a nearfall (and yes, at this point I’m not sure who’s legal or if this is Tornado Tag and I missed it lol)…but the Outrunners turn it around on Private Party.
Okay, NOW we get Magnum getting the tag from Floyd as they go back after Zay…but the Kings rush in, as Brody gets a blind tag to go after Bowens. He and Malakai hit a double-team on Bowens in the corner, but the Outrunners evade the same fate before hitting a Total Recall for a nearfall! Bowens gets back into the match before Caster tags himself in, causing a bunch of friction between them as the pair are the legal men in this match!
Billy Gunn, who likely has flashbacks surrounding this, talks to Caster and Bowens before Max offers to take the pinfall. Bowens reluctantly pins him but that is broken up by Zay. The Acclaimed turn it around but are arguing about who gets the pinfall, and this leads to the Outrunners getting involved…only to be sent out of the ring by Private Party, as the champs get the pin to retain their titles!
Winners via pinfall and still AEW World Tag Team Champions: Private Party

MJF vs. Roderick Strong
MJF immediately leaves the ring, grabbing a mic from the announce area to run down Roderick Strong and the New Jersey crowd. This riles Strong up, as MJF tries to escape up the ramp…only for Strong to go after him on the stage! Max turns things around however, using the turnbuckle to attack Roddy’s hand before setting up for a powerbomb onto the apron. With his opponent down and in pain, MJF just mocks Roderick before bringing him back into the ring to mock him some more.
Max turns his attention to the crowd for some more words before going after Strong again…but Roderick catches him with a chop instead. MJF takes him down to the mat before mocking him from the turnbuckle. He goes after Roderick’s hand again, telling him the people don’t care about him as he takes Strong to the mat. Roderick fights back to his feet before taking to the ropes, hitting an enziguri on MJF and following up with a half nelson backbreaker…but he’s still in pain himself, keeping him from capitalizing.
Strong slowly gets to his feet as does MJF, but it’s Roderick who maintains control as he sends Max back to the mat. Still reeling from the earlier attack, Strong heads to the ropes for some leverage as he gets back up. MJF is up as well however, but Strong blocks a Heatseeker attempt to send him to the outside…following up with a dropkick before leaving the ring, sending Max into the barricade on his back!
Strong brings him back into the ring, but MJF dodges the Sick Kick before taking Strong to the mat. He looks for a Panama Sunrise but gets taken down by Roderick instead, who gets a nearfall for his efforts. MJF gets back into it, going after Strong as he starts mocking him again…and this riles Roderick up for a few strikes of his own. MJF stops him but is soon taken back down as Roderick goes for a Cloverleaf!
MJF crawls toward the ropes but is pulled away by Strong, whose shoulder nearly gives out as he lets go of the hold. Strong struggles to get after MJF, but the struggle pays off as he hits the End of Heartache on Max for the cover…only for MJF to get his foot on the bottom rope to stop the count!
Roderick hits the ropes to go after MJF, who dips through the ropes to the outside. Both men end up back in the ring as MJF catches Strong with a cradle for a nearfall, but Strong fights back with a backbreaker and a gutbuster…before taking to the ropes for a Sick Kick! Roderick looks for End of Heartache instead of covering, and MJF responds with a brainbuster forcing both men on the canvas.
Strong crawls over to MJF for a weak cover, but Max counters with Salt of the Earth! Roderick is broken after all the damage he’s taken, and has no choice but to tap out.
Winner via pinfall: MJF
MJF is far from finished, however, as he grabs a steel chair from ringside to continue the beatdown. He goes after the arm of Strong some more before Adam Cole and the rest of Undisputed Kingdom make their way down the ramp for the save, alongside Kyle O’Reilly as MJF makes his escape through the crowd. Kyle shoves Adam away, telling him off for letting Roderick fight his battles against MJF before leaving the ring with Roderick. Bennett talks to Cole about the situation as they leave the ring.

Moné catches her with a DDT to get back into things with a nearfall, and the champ is screaming as she tries to figure out what it will take to put the challenger down. Mercedes with a vertical suplex, turning it into the Three Amigos as she channels the late, great Eddie Guerrero to go up top for a frog splash…only for Statlander to catch her in midair, driving her down hard with what I can best describe as a F5 of sorts for the cover!
But the champ manages to get a shoulder up to save her title! Statlander climbs the nearest turnbuckle, looking to take Moné down with a 450 splash…but the champ rolls out of the way. She lays into Statlander before going after the leg with some right hands, and goes up top once more for a frog splash onto Statlander’s knee. Cover by Moné once again…and once again, Statlander manages to kick out!
Moné eggs on her challenger as Statlander gets to her feet, only to be hit with not one but two Backstabbers and the Moné Maker for the cover…and Kris kicks out!

Pinfall attempts are exchanged until Moné is sent down to the mat.

Winner via pinfall and still TBS Champion: Mercedes Moné
Moné celebrates at ringside as a doctor helps Statlander up the ramp and to the back. Mercedes takes her celebration to the ramp, dancing with both of her titles before heading to the back as well.

Hangman Adam Page vs. Jay White
The two men lock up before White gets the early advantage, laying into Hangman with some chops…but Page sends him over the ropes to the outside, immediately following him for some right hands. Page sets him up in the corner, using the ring post to inflict more pain before bringing him fully back into the ring.

Jay goes to the corner but is sent crashing to the mat by Page, who follows up with a fall away slam sending him into the corner.
Page continues the attack as he gains another nearfall on the Switchblade, who manages to pull the Hangman’s leg into the ring post…but the velocity causes him to drop down, favoring his ankle as he comes back into the ring. He takes Page on a one-way trip to the canvas thanks to a superplex, staying on top of him for the cover for a two count.

He cinches in an ankle lock on the Switchblade, but the ref can’t consider a submission on the outside as he heads back to the ring to begin the count.
