– After an impressive victory propelled them into the Top 5 Tag Team rankings, Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee stated their desire to challenge for the Tag Team Titles. This brought out Jurassic Express, as well as Team Taz’s Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs. After some hurtful words about Starks’ outfit were thrown around, the teams all agreed to fight for the belts at Double or Nothing.

– While taking his ten lashes from MJF and Shawn Spears, Wardlow showed as little emotion as possible, something which only caused MJF to grow increasingly more frustrated. Before the tenth lash, MJF kicked Wardlow in the groin and proceeded, along with Spears, to whip and beat up his former bodyguard.

– Kyle O’Reilly won the other quarterfinal match in the men’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, defeating Rey Fenix. As a result, he will face Samoa Joe for the opportunity to advance to the finals at Double or Nothing.
– During the face-to-face confrontation between Chris Jericho and William Regal, it was revealed that Regal used to sneak into Chris Jericho’s locker room and stick his toothbrush up his bottom. Supposedly this has been happening since 1997. He apparently also did this to Daniel Garcia last week.
After more harsh words, the Jericho Appreciation Society agreed to a no rules match against Jon Moxley, Bryan Danielson, Eddie Kingston, Santana, and Ortiz at Double or Nothing.

– Britt Baker defeated Maki Itoh to advance to the semi-finals of the Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament. She will face Toni Storm in the next round. The two women stared each other down following tonight’s match.
– Serena Deeb called out Dustin Rhodes and asked why he picked Thunder Rosa to beat her at Double or Nothing. She then listed all of the different things that she has had to due to earn respect in this business and feels slighted by the fact that she still isn’t getting it.
Thunder came out to confront Deeb but was held back by Dustin. After accidentally hitting him while trying to fight away, Thunder was hit by Deeb with the title belt when she turned around to check on Rhodes.

– In the main event, Adam Cole defeated Jeff Hardy to advance to the finals of the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. After the bell, the entire Undisputed Elite attacked The Hardy’s, Sting, and Darby Allin. Sting would get the worst of it as his leg was pinned in a chair and stomped on by Kyle O’Reilly.
It’s chaos here at #AEWDynamite as now @Sting and @DarbyAlllin get involved! What a night here on @TBSNetwork! pic.twitter.com/hPE7JhkVTT
