All Elite Wrestling will deliver an action-packed episode of AEW Rampage on August 5.
Tonight’s episode will feature Jon Moxley taking on Mance Warner in the AEW Interim World Championship Eliminator. Plus, Madison Rayne will make her debut with All Elite Wrestling, and the AEW World Tag Team Champions Keith Lee & Swerve Strickland will take on Tony Nese & Josh Woods in a Friday Night Street Fight.
The results are as follows:
Match 1: Jon Moxley def. Mance Warner via submission
In the opening match, Moxley took down Warner in a brutal singles match that acted as an Interim AEW World Championship eliminator match. Things started off hot early as the two superstars came to blows before the bell had even rung, brawling outside of the ring.
Once inside, the two continued to brawl, with both superstars getting a chance to win early. However, Moxley was the one who walked out on top after surviving a clothesline and then taking Warner down with a vicious series of kicks. He ended things with a piledriver before choking out Warner for the win.

Match 2: Konosuke Takeshita def. Ryan Nemeth via pinfall
Takeshita put this one away relatively quickly, avoiding many of Nemeth’s stronger attack attempts before landing a Blue Thunder Bomb to drop Nemeth. With his opponent a bit dazed, Nemeth couldn’t avoid a running knee strike from Takeshita, who hit the move before pinning Nemeth for the win.

Match 3: Madison Rayne def. Leila Grey via pinfall
Making her in-ring debut, Rayne was able to walk away with a win thanks to some late heroics. The superstar was able to avoid a facebuster late and then hit the CrossRayne for the win. Following the match, however, Jade Cargill interrupted the celebration, inviting Madison Rayne to accept her open challenge next week on AEW Dynamite and get in the ring with a real superstar.
As Rayne was preoccupied, Kiera Hogan attempted to ambush her, but Rayne was able to get out of any attack and hit Hogan with a CrossRayne before talking trash to Cargill.

Match 4: Swerve Strickland & Keith Lee (c) def. Tony Nese & Josh Woods
The reigning champs continued their dominant run, taking down Nese and Woods in a brutal match that utilized a variety of weapons. Due to the Street Fight nature of the match, the superstars used all things like toolboxes, chairs, and even tables to take each other down.
Towards the end of the match, though, Woods put Lee through a table outside of the ring, nearly leading to a Nese and Woods victory. However, after Swerve avoided a big move by Nese, he was able to drop Tony with the Swerve Stomp, ending the match with a pin and win.
