The match begins with Kenny Omega and Frankie Kazarian. The latter takes a headlock but Omega shoots him off and hits an arm drag. Kazarian whips Omega into the ropes and Scorpio Sky delivers a cheap kick to the back. Omega then boots him off the apron and looks to diver over the ropes onto him but Kazarian drags him back into the ring for a roll-up and a near-fall.
Kazarian drops Omega on the middle rope and Sky kicks him, then Kazarian hits a German suplex and knocks Page from the apron. Sky tags in and hits Omega with a jumping flatliner for a two-count while Frankie knocks Page off the apron again. SCU look for SCULater but Page comes back and knocks Frankie from the ring, then hits an assisted German suplex with Omega. The Champions look for the Buckshot/tiger suplex finisher but Kazarian pulls Page from the apron.
Omega knocks Sky to the outside, then looks to dive onto Hangman but Sky trips him. Sky then dives over the ropes onto Hangman, quickly followed by Kenny diving onto both he and Kazarian. Omega puts Sky back in the ring and hits a missile dropkick to the back, followed by a fisherman buster and a near-fall. Page tags in and Kazarian returns but Kenny hits him with the Kotaro Crusher.

They surround SCU but out come Chuck Taylor and Trent to even the numbers. The Blade, The Butcher, and The Bunny come out, followed by TH2. The Young Bucks are the last team to come out and chaos reigns as all the tag teams brawl and toss each other from the ring. The Bucks clear the ring before hitting dives onto everyone at ringside.
*Commercial Break*
We see an interview from earlier today between Jim Ross and Santana. JR asks him what he meant when he said Jon Moxley would learn to live in darkness. Santana says 15 years ago he was at his lowest; living in a basement in the Bronx, no job, no money, no direction. One night he called his father at 3 AM and explained how he was feeling; every day was darkness. His father started going blind at 14 years old, and his sight was gone at 25. His father was stolen from him and he never got to say goodbye. Ross asks if Jericho is the person Santana should be angry with. Santana said Moxley had the chance to join the reason AEW is successful. He left it all at his feet. And tonight he promises he will learn to live in darkness.
Darby Allin has another video package, in which he can’t speak because his throat was attacked with his skateboard. He holds up cards that say he will get his revenge and asks Sammy Guevara for a match at AEW Revolution.
DUSTIN RHODES VS. SAMMY GUEVARA W/JAKE HAGER
The match gets underway and Sammy immediately leaves the ring. He tries to sneak attack Rhodes but gets caught with a right hand. Dustin hits a lariat and a back suplex, followed by a running knee for a two-count. Sammy leaves the ring and decides he’s just going to leave the match but Dustin attacks him on the outside and gets in the face of Hager.
*Commercial Break*
Back live and Dustin counters Sammy with a reverse STO. Rhodes rallies and delivers right hands, followed by a lariat, uppercut, and a snap powerslam for a near-fall. Rhodes makes the mistake of talking trash to Hager, allowing Guevara to get him up and deliver something of a backwards GTS for a near-fall.
Guevara goes up top but Dustin swipes his feet out. Rhodes climbs up top and flips Guevara over and off the ropes, but the Spanish God leaps back up with him…only to get front suplexed off. Rhodes hits Sammy with a Canadian Destroyer and hits The Final Reckoning for the win.
WINNER: DUSTIN RHODES
After the match, Rhodes grabs a microphone and tells “Jericho’s bitch” to turn around. Rhodes asks Hager if he’s ever going to get in a ring, or if he’s going to just keep cashing cheques. Rhodes says Hager is failing at MMA and failing AEW. He broke his arm and he wants a piece of him at AEW Revolution. Hager walks towards the ring but turns and walks off.
Tony Schiavone attempts to interview the captain charisma, Britt Baker once again. He asks about what she did last week to Yuri, and she says she did a favour by removing her decaying tooth for free. She rambles on about tooth decay and which exact tooth it was, before making fun of Schiavone for being a barista. Tony asks her about the women’s title match tonight, and she says it will be fantastic but, at the end of the day, they’ll both be number two behind her. That makes sense. She says she sees a lot of confusion in the cheesey Whataburger faces of the fans. She says she has two degrees and she was the first woman signed to AEW. This is her division and what she did last week was a statement. The fans chant “Whataburger”.

Riho hits Nyla with three double foot stomps from the top rope…but Rose gets her foot on the bottom rope. Riho runs at Nyla but gets hit with a Spear, followed by the sit-out powerbomb and the win.
WINNER AND NEW AEW WOMEN’S CHAMPION: NYLA ROSE
In standard AEW fashion, they cut to commercial and missed Nyla Rose’s entire title celebration. Don’t worry though, because she did walk backstage and cut a promo that we were unable to hear with the commercial.
*Commercial Break*
The Inner Circle are interviewed backstage and they have some big news for next week. Jericho says that last week, when Moxley used the car key to attack Santana, he proved he was a piece of human trash. He says it makes him sick that he has to stand in the same ring as him but he will because he’s a good man. However what he did was scour the globe for an assassin that could tear him limb from limb. So if he survives Santana, next week he will face Jeff Cobb of Ring of Honor fame. Jericho says he will meet Moxley in hell.
*Commercial Break*

*Commercial Break*
PAC cuts a promo – once again in his ring gear on the streets at night – in which he says all of Omega’s problems are because of him – What problems? PAC says Omega is scared. No more ducking or dodging. In two weeks he gets 30 minutes with the best in the world. This is the most one-sided, mishandled feud. Seriously, it feels like PAC is in the feud by himself and once a month Omega runs around looking for him but that’s it. Next week, Omega and Page will defend their tag titles against Lucha Bros.
The announcers give a rundown of the entire AEW Revolution card, happening on February 29th. The Inner Circle make their entrance, with Jericho and co. sitting in a booth up high.
