Trios Match
Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta vs. Rush & Private Party

After a couple of minutes of back-and-forth action, we see the Rush and Private Party pull ahead, dominating the offense before the commentators send us to our first mid-match commercial break of the evening as the action continues in the ring.

We settle back in from the break, and we see the baby face trio start to shift the momentum in their favor as they begin taking over on offense in this one. Castagnoli ends up as the legal man in the ring and with Quen and Kassidy in the ring, the former WWE Superstar known as Cesaro does his “Giant Swing” spot on both Private Party members. This elicits a huge pop from the fans in D.C.

The action settles into the finish, which ultimately sees the team of Moxley, Castagnoli and Yuta pick up the win with Yuta locking in a head and arm scissors type submission on Quen. Once the match wraps up, we hear Regal thank J.R., Chris Jericho and “the guy in the mask” by saying, “Goodnight gentlemen, that’s all for me!”

Winners: Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta

The Dark Order cut a promo about winning the Trios titles tonight on the second anniversary of Brodie Lee’s last match.

Tony Nese & Josh Woods vs. Varsity Blonds

This one doesn’t last long at all, as Nese and Woods hit a double-team finisher for the pin fall victory. Only a couple of minutes for the match, but the action continues on the microphone once the bell rings for a second time.

Winners: Tony Nese & Josh Woods

Once the match wraps up and the theme music dies down for the winners, the manager of Nese and Woods, “Smart” Mark Sterling, gets on the mic and announces that he has trademarked the term “Varsity” after dropping a line from ole’ Junior Soprano in The Sopranos, saying the Varsity Blonds “never had the makings of a varsity athlete.” He says that he has trademarked the term “varsity” and Woods and Nese will now be known as “The Varsity Athletes” and if the Varsity Blonds use their name, he’ll sue them.

The theme for The Acclaimed hits and out comes the duo of Max Caster and Anthony Bowens. Caster does a freestyle rap on his way to the ring where he drops a line at the end about NBA star Draymond Green of the Warriors sucker punch on Jordan Poole. The heels leave and The Acclaimed and Daddy Ass scissor in the ring.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry I lost control. Is that what they want me to say, is that what the producers want me to say?” @Madking1981 doesn’t seem to be ready to give an honest apology anytime soon for losing control after the bell.

AEW World Trios Championship
Death Triangle (c) vs. The Dark Order (John Silver, Alex Reynolds & 10)

We shoot backstage to Mark Henry, who is ready for our weekly pre-main event split-screen discussion with the competitors scheduled to compete for the AEW Trios Tag-Team Championships. “The World’s Strongest Man” sends things over to the six men, with each three-man teams speaking their piece before the WWE Hall of Fame legend and member of the AEW broadcast team declares that it has, in fact, been enough talking and that it is, indeed, time for tonight’s main event of the evening.

The commentators note that this is the first of what will be all championship matches to finish out the evening, with each of the bouts scheduled for the AEW Battle Of The Belts IV special event that follows the live Rampage broadcast all featuring titles on-the-line.

After some very fast-paced, hard-hitting offense from all six guys, with some early high spots to get the crowd on their feet in the Entertainment & Sports Arena in Washington, D.C., we see the trio of The Dark Order start to pull ahead into the lead. On that note, we head to a mid-match commercial break as the action continues.

When we return from the break, we see things start to go The Dark Order’s way for a while, with the commentators singing the praises of Preston “10” Vance, as he puts on a great offensive display. It doesn’t stay that way, however, as the Death Triangle trio start to take over.

As we wind down into the finish, we see the Death Triangle members trying to end this one with Penta going for his Fear Factor spot but not connecting.

RUSH makes his way out. He hands the ring bell hammer to PAC, who ends up using it to knock out Alex Reynolds. He slaps his Brutalizer submission finisher on him and picks up the win.
