#1. MJF vs. Kip Morst (Job Guy) – Winner: MJF
Following the match, MJF cuts a promo about having to work on Saturday, before calling Hamilton a dump, among other things, and issues an open challenge to anyone from the city, FOR HIS TITLE.
Another fat jobber comes out, but Ethan Page pushes past him. He comes to the ring, smacks the mic right out of MJF’s hand, cuts a babyface promo, calls Max a b***h, and challenges MJF to a match right there.
#2. MJF vs. Ethan Page (AEW World Championship) – Winner: MJF

Tony Schiavone’s in the ring, and he introduces Bullet Club Gold. They start with their promo, taking digs and firing shots at CM Punk, FTR and Ricky Starks. The babyfaces are backstage with Lexy Nair, and they fire back at Bullet Club Gold. They engage in a cerbal back and forth before…
…Starks is out next for his Owen Hart Cup match with Juice Robinson, and Bullet Club Gold is banned from ringside for this bout.

#5. Ricky Starks vs. Juice Robinson (Owen Cup) – Winner: Ricky Starks
Following the match, Bullet Club Gold rush to the ring to attack Starks, but CM Punk & FTR made the save.

Lexy Nair is backstage with Christian Cage and Luchasaurus, and she asks Christian why he has the TNT Championship on his shoulder. In typical AEW fashion, Shawn Spears interrupts him before he can say much of anything, and he’s there for the TNT title.
Cage declares that will be no open challenges, and they argue for a bit before Spears says that he will see them soon.

#6. Kris Statlander vs. Lady Frost (TBS Championship) – Winner: Kris Statlander
******
Backstage, Andrade El Idolo is talking directly to the camera, sending a message to the House of Black. They cut in on the monitor beside him and tell him “all in due time.”

CM Punk is here! He heads over to the announce desk before Roderick Strong and then Samoa Joe make their entrances.
#7. Samoa Joe vs. Roderick Strong – Winner: Samoa Joe
The finish saw Roderick Strong refuse to tap and ultimately pass out to the Coquina Clutch. Samoa Joe then took a steel chair and started assaulting Strong, prompting CM Punk to head to the ring for the save.
Punk and Joe had a stare down ahead of their semi-final match next week, while Adam Cole also came out to check in on Roddy, who had to be stretchered out of the arena.
