AEW World Trios Title Match
The Elite (Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) (w/Brandon Cutler & MT Nakazawa) (c) vs. The Firm (Ethan Page, Isiah Kassidy & Matt Hardy) (w/Stokely Hathaway)

A fine match in terms of action and spots. Fast paced and everyone got their moments in. Just a bland match in terms of who was involved. No one believes that for a minute this trios team of 3 guys who aren’t together, two of which don’t get along, is going to take down The Elite. 

3.5 / 5

Singles Match
Swerve Strickland (w/Parker Boudreaux & Trench) vs. Brian Pillman Jr.

Pillman Jr looks more like his dad lately but its not helping him. This match showed off why he isn’t hitting much. Being thrown into stuff like this shows off why the tag team he had was best because he just isn’t drawing much in ring solo usually. 

2 / 5

Tag Team Match
Saraya & Toni Storm vs. The Renegade Twins (Charlette Renegade & Robyn Renegade)

The Renegade Twins are a solid jobber team that AEW brings in who I feel actually puts in work during the matches. This was just a simple thing for Saraya to continue to try to break the ring rust off. 

2 / 5

Singles Match
Christopher Daniels vs. Rush (w/Jose The Assistant & Preston Vance)

Another match that was fine but unneeded. Sure it helped Rush look great because Daniels is such a good in ring guy but it just never felt important or anything even good really. 

2.5 / 5
