The Pinnacle (MJF, Shawn Spears, Dax Harwood, Cash Wheeler & Wardlow) clashed with The Inner Circle (Chris Jericho, Sammy Guevara, Santana, Ortiz & Jake Hager) in a Blood & Guts match. After the two teams battled for over 25 minutes, the conclusion of the match saw MJF holding Jericho near the edge of the cage. Sammy Guevara, who was standing near the entrance way was told by MJF to surrender or he would toss Jericho off the cage. Sammy agreed and stated that The Inner Circle surrendered. Jericho was still tossed off the cage.

S.C.U. (Frankie Kazarian & Christopher Daniels) will be getting their shot at the AEW Tag Titles when they meet The Young Bucks next week. Daniels and Kazarian bested Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus, Brian Pillman Jr. and Griff Garrison along with The Acclaimed (Anthony Bowens & Max Caster) to earn that opportunity. If S.C.U. loses, they will split as a team.
Prior to the aforementioned four-way tag match, while Max Caster was performing his freestyle, he stated that Brian Pillman Jr. and Griff Garrison are going to end up on Dark Side of the Ring in ten years. Pillman Jr.’s father is being profiled on the first episode of Dark Side of the Ring season 3.
