Best Friends\/Chaos started the match with a handicap, fighting The Factory four on five because their &#8220;very mysterious, very evil&#8221; partner did not come out with them.\u00a0 Regardless, the match was fought evenly. The pace was high, and the match broke down into the expected &#8220;everyone hit a big move then leave&#8221; scenario after a while. QT Marshall managed to isolate Orange Cassidy and was about to piledrive him onto the ring steps when Danhausen finally made his entrance.

Starks went into this fight with injured ribs (from his previous tournament match with Lance Archer). Cage took full advantage of Starks&#8217; injury, and the bigger man dominated the early parts of the match. Cage&#8217;s domination made the first half of the match a bit slow, but that was all building towards Starks getting fired up and mounting a comeback. Starks got in some shots here and there, and eventually started to get Cage in trouble. This match was nicely done, and it continues to build intrigue in the final match of the Eliminator Tournament considering Starks&#8217; worsening injury.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA very special look at the upcoming video game\u00a0<em>AEW Fight Forever<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA Look at Saraya and Britt Baker before their match later tonight.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nFull of emotion, Eddie Kingston talks with Renee Paquette and what his match with Jun Akiyama means to him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 3<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Jun Akiyama vs Eddie Kingston<\/strong> w\/ Ortiz<br \/>\n(referee: Bryce Remsburg)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e7382199259','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e7382199259\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e7382199259\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Eddie Kingston wins via pinfall after the Uraken<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 10:32<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nVery good match.
