MATCH 1

Tag Team Gauntlet To Face FTR

Young Bucks vs. Natural Nightmares

QT Marshall & Nick Jackson start things off as they go back and forth. QT gets sunset flipped before tagging in Dustin. Matt gets in and Dustin has to catch his breath. Two powerslams by Dustin before he and QT double Russian leg sweep Matt for a two count.

Dropkick by QT before he wrenches the arm and tags in Dustin. Double axe handle from the top by Dustin and then an arm wrench leg drop to Matt. Nick and Matt soon double-team dropkick and then knock QT off the apron. Bucks begin working Dustin. Bulldog dropkick by The Bucks. Two count.

Nick goes for a back drop but Dustin catches him with an uppercut. Canadian Destroyer (which Chris calls a Texas Destroyer) for a two count.

QT gets the tag and hits a flatliner on Nick for two. A bodyslam attempt allows  Nick to tag in Matt and it’s a superkick party. QT gets a near fall soon after reverseing a double-team, but The Bucks continue a BTE Trigger for the W.

ELIMINATED: The Natural Nightmares

Next up are The Best Friends. They start off hot, but Nick begins to control momentum with Chuck Taylor. Facebuster before going for a moonsault onto the outside onto Trent, but he moves and spears Nick.

Trent and Nick soon go at it until Taylor executes a flip over suplex for a two counts. He sends Nick into the corner who goes crashing into the turnbuckle.  Trent fires away, but Nick outwits The Best Friends by sliding out of the ring and pulling Chuck off the apron. Trent soon tries to piledrive Nick on the apron, but he reverses and hits a German suplex on Trent instead.

In comes Matt Jackson as he takes it to both BFs with Samoan chops.  Soon enough, Matt hits his locomotion suplexes, but Trent counters at the fourth attempt. Both teams tag as they trade punches. Nick gets off a flurry of kicks between the two, but Chucks slams him down. Chuck’s knee is bothering him, but the two still manage to hit Soul Food Half N Half. They go for their finisher, but Matt has Chuck’s legs and Nick turns the tables for a pin attempt, but he kicked out.

On the outside, Matt holds up Trent to create bridge with his body and Nick senton flips on top of him. They do the same in the ring with a 450 splash in the ring. Kick out!

The Bucks go for The Meltzer Driver, but in comes Hangman Page and holds Nick’s leg on the apron. Meanwhile, Matt gets rolled up by Trent and that’s good for the pinfall!

ELIMINATED: The Young Bucks

Out come FTR who act like they have nothing to do with Hangman’s interference. We go to break as the third bout of the gauntlet begins in picture in picture. They knock the BFs off the apron.

Back from break, Dax is working on Chuck’s knee. The underhanded tactics continue as FTR isolates both of their opponents all the while continuing to attack Taylor’s knee. Dax locks in an inverted figure four on Chuck. Chuck unexpectedly taps.

WINNERS & Number One Contenders For AEW Tag Team Titles: FTR

We see Darby at his compound wearing a Ricky Starks mask. “You really think I’m afraid of you, Ricky?” he states as he jumps off a bridge.

MATCH 2

Lance Archer vs.  Sean Maluta

Lance comes barreling out as he slugs a talent at ringside. Maluta is Afa’s nephew, but Archer doesn’t give a damn as he chops away at Maluta. He hammers away at Sean in the middle of the ring. Sean tries to fight back, but he gets punched by Archer. Suplex before he does repeated charging elbows in the corner. Monster chokeslam by Archer, but he picks Maluta up before two. Archer lays down the Blackout and he picks him up once more to slam his head down repeatedly with The Claw before getting the win.

WINNER: Lance Archer

Jake Roberts has the mick 21 will enter The Casino Battle Royale. Jake says that one blemish on Archer’s record has cost them so much time. Feeding Lance is like feeding a wood chipper, you feed him in and confetti comes out. He loves seeing him abuse people. Out comes Team Taz. Roberts calls them The Flintstones. Taz says one of Team Taz will win at All Out, but Darby comes rolling in on his skateboard to feed Starks a dropkick and the two brawl on the entryway to the back. Cage and Archer are being settled by Taz and Roberts.

We’re backstage with MJF. He walks down the hallway with a walker as he confronts Lee Johnson.

We see a video package of Thunder Rosa that includes footage from The NWA and sound bytes from Billy Corgan who says he appreciates the opportunity to bring the promotion to AEW. We see the contract signing take place.

MJF & Jon Moxley Contract Signing

MJF’s lawyer runs down the details before Max grabs the mic. He says all these signings end the same – in a brawl. He’s not going to do that. Unlike Jon, he’s not an animal. He’d appreciate social distancing kind of like his hairline. Mox retorts that Max will get there, he just has to hit puberty. Max mocks it off before saying he never got the hype of Moxley. It turns out MJF was wrong about him. “You’re good. Real good.” He cites that even Mike Tyson pointed at Mox backstage and said he wouldn’t want to be in a dark alley with him. Unfortunately at All Out, they won’t be in a back alley, they’ll be in a wrestling ring and he’s a pro wrestling prodigy. On September 5 he will take Jon apart systematically.

Jon will panic because he’s not a wrestler – he’s a glorified goon. He says Mox wants MJF by the floor so he can brawl because he grew up idolizing guys like Sandman, New Jack and more. Max grew up watching Buddy Rogers, Ernie Ladd and Tully. He says at the end of All Out, he’s wearing “Pretty Platinum” and becomes AEW World Champion because they deserve better.

MJF can’t understand why Jon needs one tiny little move to beat him unless he’s not man enough. Maybe he should tell his hot little wife that he’s single.

Mox grabs the mic: “Should I sign this contract?” Does he need the Paradigm Shift to beat him? What he wants to take away is his most dangerous weapon, but MJF is forcing him to get creative. He doesn’t want to get sued and he doesn’t know any lawyers. He’s going to sign the contract but nothing Max says matters and nothing he signs matters. “On September 5, you’re a dead man.” Mox signs and MJF screams. He calls him an idiot.  Mox mentions that he can’t believe they okay’ed page 17. The lawyer says there was only 16 pages. Mox reveals that he added an extra one and it says he gets to fight the lawyer next week for a tune-up match and this time, The Paradigm Shift is legal. If he no-shows, MJF forfeits his title shot.

MATCH 3

Sonny Kiss, Joey Janela, Brian Pillman Jr. & Griff Garrison vs. The Lucha Bros. & The Butcher & The Blade

Immediate brawl begins to start the match and dives onto the outside follows it up. Big gutwrench by The Butcher onto Jungle Boy. Griff Garrison fires away at Blade. Sonny Kiss gets the tag and he comes in firing away. Right hook by Kiss before tagging in Joey. They double team The Blade, but Joey gets hammered in the corner by his opponents as a brawl breaks out again. We go to break.

Back from it, Janela fights his way free and a hard elbow takes Fenix out. Janela tags in Sony who shows his athleticism against Rey Fenix. Hurricanrana by Sonny as he leaps off with a split on top, but Fenix rolls out of the way. Fenix does get hung up on the ropes and Janela nails him with a DVD on the apron. Penta returns the favor with a piledrive. In comes Pillman like a house on fire against The Butcher. High praise from the commentators acknowledging the crowd. Penta finishes him off for the win, however.

WINNERS: The Lucha Bros. & The Butcher & The Blade

Post-match, Eddie heels on the crowd before announcing all of them are going to be in the Casino Royal Battle Royale and one of them is going to win it.

Brodie Lee TNT Title Celebration

Next up, The Dark Order come out with a casket on stage along with lawnmowers (?) they purchased. There’s also a yellow Ford Mustang. Evil Uno states they bid farewell to the man named Cody. They open the casket and out comes X covered under Cody’s clothes. X gets out and they drape a Nightmare Family flag over the casket as they welcome the new TNT Champion, Brodie Lee. Uno implores them all members to show their appreciation for Lee.

Tony Schiavone takes the MC reigns. Lee tells him to look back of December of last year. Dark Order was laughed at and Brodie was in prison at home. He tells him that they buried The Nightmare Family and no more open challenges. He says Cody will never ever get them back. He wants to introduce everyone to the newest member of The Nightmare Family, 99, Anna Jay. John Silver gets too excited, calls Lee “the man” and gets slugged by Brodie.

Soon after, in comes Dustin and QT. They quickly get overtaken by Dark Order. In comes Scorpio Sky for the save and he cleans house. Scorpio points at Lee and the TNT belt, but Anna Jay slaps him.  That distracts Sky enough for a cheap shot by Lee. Brodie and Anna exit, but out of nowhere comes Matt Cardona to even the odds. The crew clears house.  Lee comes out to grin at his adversaries.

Dasha is at the bar with Hangman to get his comments, but before he can, in comes Nick and Matt. They read him the riot act. Matt calls him nothing but a drunk. He tells Page this is what he wanted. He’s out of The Elite. Hangman looks at himself in a broken mirror as The Bucks exit.

MATCH 4

Handicap Match

Penelope Ford & Rebel vs. Big Swole

Match starts off awkward with a head scissors on Ford. Soon Rebel gets the tag as the two double team Swole in the corner. Swole manages to stop Rebel on the top of the turnbuckle and hurricanranas Rebel down. She has the win but a distraction stops referee Paul Turner.

Soon after a second rope moonsault by Rebel gets a near fall. The two go to take out Swole with a crutch, but Swole turns the tide and nails Ford with it. She gets the three count. Swole gets her shot at Britt Baker.

WINNER: Big Swole

It looks like we’re cutting to a break, but out is Evil Uno with Anna Jay.  They offer Taya Conti a membership. She hugs Anna Jay and accepts.

MAIN EVENT

Tables Match

Matt Hardy vs. Sammy Guevara

Matt Hardy comes hard at Sammy and doesn’t stop. The fight quickly goes to outside and as we go to picture-in-picture Matt throws an open chair at Sammy.

Back from break, Sammy is busted open as Matt hits a Side Effect on the apron. He goes to elbow Sammy through a table, but Sammy moves. Back in the ring, Sammy has chair, but Matt kicks him in the gut and hits a Twist of Fate with Sammy’s head wedged in between. Matt pulls out another table. The tabled is branded with “DELETE” on it. He puts Sammy on it as Matt ascends the turnbuckle, Matt can get his balance and it allows Sammy to superplex him through.

WINNER: Sammy Guevara

Post match, Orange Cassidy immediately charges at Jericho. He pounds away at Chris before hammering him with a Superman Punch. The two attack one another on stage as they go back and forth as officials try to break it up. End of the show!
