A great opener for the show. Page and Castagnoli wasted no time going at each other. Page started out strong by isolating Castagnoli in the corner with some nice hits and stomps but was stopped with a mat slam. A giant swing later, Castagnoli was in control until a Death Valley Driver by Page. The match spilled to the outside, with Page borrowing a drink from a fan to recover. The two men trade strikes and Castagnoli attempts multiple near pinfalls. Page hits Castagnoli with Buckshot and a Lariat for the pinfall victory.

Video Package: AEW showcases a video package dedicated to the late Brodie Lee. Lee’s proteges Preston Vance and Anna Jay would feature in the upcoming 8-man tag team match. The video was heart-touching and a cruel reminder that Lee was gone too soon and dearly missed by the AEW fanbase.

8 Man TagTeam Match: Lance Archer, Brian Cage, and Gates Of Agony vs. Orange Cassidy, Dustin Rhodes, Adam Copeland, and Preston Vance.

Winner: Orange Cassidy, Dustin Rhodes, Adam Copeland, and Preston Vance.

The second match of the night would be an explosive 8-man tag team match. This 8-man tag team match was your standard babyface vs. heels match. Meanwhile, the first half had the heels in control, with Cassidy isolated and beaten down. The match featured a ton of high-impact spots, with the action increasing as the match went on. The match also featured a ton of nods and tributes to Lee. The match saw its end as Copeland hit a spear on Kaun, followed by Lee’s iconic Lariat by Vance for the pin.

Backstage segment: We get a backstage interview by Renee Paquette with Bullet Club Gold. Jay White said that whatever the Undisputed Kingdom was doing, the Bang Bang Gang could do it better. The Acclaimed interrupted and talked about a team-up to claim all the AEW gold. This was a hint at the formation of a supergroup.

In-ring segment: Samoa Joe came down to the ring as this was his first appearance as the new AEW World Champion. We hear “Thank You Joe” chants, to which Joe replies that no thanks were needed. He talks about how if anyone wants a shot at the title, they need to meet with the Championship committee to see if they are worthy. If they are, they get an express pass for Joe to stomp them out in front of everyone, which gets a massive pop.

Swerve Strickland comes out with the Mogul Embassy. He tells Joe that it isn’t personal, but he will be taking the title off him this year. As Joe and Strickland face off, Adam Page comes out. Page talks about the insane year he had in 2023 and how he wants to top it. He recounts his Texas Death match with Jon Moxley and reuniting The Elite. With all this, he lost sight of the AEW World title. Now, in 2024, he wants it more than ever and doesn’t care who stands in his way.

Once they left, HOOK came out to the ring to announce his claim on the title. This proved that there were now three challengers for Joe to face to defend his title.

Backstage segment: Renee Paquette interviews Toni Storm, Luther, and Mariah May. They discussed the new signee, Deonna Purrazzo. Storm believed it was Wendi Richter, while May said that she had kicked her in the face during the last episode.

Sammy Guevara vs. Ricky Starks

Winner: Sammy Guevara

A quick match between two highly-trained in-ring starks ensues. Both men showed off their high-flying acrobatic skills with leapfrogs, backflips, dropkicks, and much more. Starks tried to outsmart Guevara with a spear, which he dodged. This gave Guevara a chance to hit a thrust kick followed by a roll-up pin for the win.

Post-match: The two men shake hands, only for Big Bill to show up and lay Guevara out. Chris Jericho comes out and drops Bill with a codebreaker. The four men start a brawl.

AEW Announcement: Tony Khan announces that Joe will have his first title defense against HOOK.

Thunder Rosa, Kris Statlander, Willow Nightingale, and Anna Jay vs. TBS Champion Julia Hart, Skye Blue, Saraya, and Ruby Soho

Winner: Julia Hart, Skye Blue, Saraya and Ruby Soho

The second 8-person tag team match featured the top 8 women in AEW. The women performed brilliantly with a massive multiple-suplex spot that hot the fans excited. Each lady got a chance to shine with Statlander clearing house. Jay got the chance to sink in the Queen Slayer to get the submission win for her team.

Roderick Strong (w/The Undisputed Kingdom) vs. Bryan Keith

Winner: Roderick Strong

Another quick match that made Roderick Strong live up to his name. A more brutal match of the night, featuring some hard hits and bumps. While Keith could mount an offensive, Strong was just too Strong. Keith was down for the count after an End of Heartache by Strong.

Post-match: Adam Cole sat in the ring to talk about strong. He claimed that he was a 20-year veteran who deserved the International title. Cole also put over Taven and Bennett as the best ROH tag team champions.

Darby Allin and Sting vs. Don Callis Family (Konosuke Takeshita and Will Hobbs) in a Tornado Tag Team Match

Winner: Sting and Darby Allin

The Icon Sting made his debut in Daily’s Place. The match was entertaining, with multiple stops outside the ring. As it is Sting’s final matches in AEW, it added to the sight of seeing Sting perform the bumps he did during the match. The Nature Boy Ric Flair was by the ringside and did get involved in the match, as it was no disqualification. Sting and Allin picked up the win, only to be treated to a surprise return.

Post-match: The Young Bucks returned to AEW to a massive pop to end the show.
