AEW World Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks talk about turning on Jon Moxley last week. Matt says they chose friendship and thanked Moxley for pushing them over the edge. Matt says they are family, and finally understands what Don Callis was telling them. They haven’t been the same and let others change the narrative of them. Matt says maybe it’s time to show a newer, better version of themselves (as we see their old gear getting clipped up).
Backstage, Mike Tyson says he’s happy to be tonight’s special enforcer. MJF shows up and wants to tell Tyson, he gets Tyson was a big deal, but his guys are not happy with Tyson. MJF continues that Chris Jericho is Tyson’s enemy and there’s no better time to take him out. Tyson doesn’t like what MJF is saying. MJF says all he wants is Tyson to be on the right side of history and offers up a blank check to Tyson. Mike takes it and rips it up in MJF’s face, eats some, and spits it back at MJF.

Callis says it’s not the end of the story when The Young Bucks joined them, it’s just the beginning. Omega takes the mic, he says they haven’t changed, they are just sick of what the fans want them to be. From here out, they are going to be however they want and the gold will follow. Matt says this isn’t all just fun and games, they just put on a match of the year earlier tonight. Matt says the tag division is being put on notice, and anyone who wants to come at them have a BTE Trigger with their name on it. Callis finishes that fans should be ready to be surprised.

Brian Cage agrees with him, but Taz tells him he should stay back, as well. Cage seems very confused by that. Taz says just leave it to him, Hook, and Hobbs to talk with Christian.

Taz doesn’t appreciate getting blown off by Christian, and asks him if he’s in or out. Christian says he was going to answer in the back, in private, but since he’s out here, Team Taz is a bit of a dumpster fire. Christian says he didn’t come to AEW to help Taz, he came here to win championship. Christian says his answer is no. He makes a height joke about Taz.
Taz says he never liked Christian anyways, and says he’s always had a buddy to carry him throughout his career. Taz keeps talking, but Hobbs just walks to the ring. Hobbs throws a shot, Christian ducks it and throws a few of his own. Hobbs with a big shot.
