After the show went off the air, Pac attacked Moxley and wrapped a chair around his neck. Before Pac could attack Moxley&#8217;s neck, Kenny Omega came out and chased Pac away.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Adam Page came out and demanded a rematch from Pac at Full Gear.<\/p>\n<p>After that, the camera followed Moxley as he entered Tony Khan&#8217;s office.

It felt like both guys needed a win tonight, but with Page heading into a rematch with Pac at Full Gear, Page probably needed the win a bit more. The action was good. Guevara didn&#8217;t seem to take Page too seriously, and that cost him multiple times throughout the match.

I&#8217;ve been a fan of Shanna&#8217;s for a couple of years now, and I&#8217;ve been waiting for someone to sign her. I&#8217;m glad she&#8217;s in AEW. Shanna struggled to get much offense early in the match, but about halfway through she started to throw Shida off her game. Shanna had some very close near falls throughout the match, and this ended up being a hard-fought and very entertaining bout.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nIn a video package, Brandi Rhodes performs some sort of magic spell.

Jericho looks at the contract, and he fakes Cody out by pretending to jump up for an attack. Jericho laughs and says this match is too important to put in jeopardy with a brawl tonight. He says this is Cody&#8217;s biggest match ever, and Cody might just find out that he&#8217;s not as good as he thinks he is. Jericho signs the contract.<\/p>\n<p>Jericho offers his hand to Cody. Cody shakes it, then he pulls Jericho in close. After they stare at each other for a few seconds, Jericho says they could stand here all night, but Cody might be needed elsewhere.

I kind of expected The Elite to roll over their opponents tonight, but TH2 and Sabian helped make this a fun and exciting match. There weren&#8217;t many tags, and it was basically a tornado match, but that was expected with these teams. I liked how the match progressed, and it really seemed to highlight Omega. Also, Omega was dressed as Sans from Undertale, and the Young Bucks were once again dressed as Ken and Ryu from the Street Fighter game series.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Santana and Ortiz attack the Young Bucks at ringside after disguising themselves in Rick and Morty masks.

Avalon talks about how ugly and gross everyone is, but he is interrupted by a very angry Jon Moxley. Moxley hits Avalon with the Paradigm Shift as Bates excuses herself from the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Moxley talks about his match with Omega at Ful Gear being unsanctioned. He&#8217;s cool with the fact that there will be no rules, but he&#8217;s angry that it won&#8217;t officially count in the record books. Moxley doesn&#8217;t like being treated like a freak and put in a box. Moxley says he is the sickest SOB in the game, and no one can prove him wrong. If you think Moxley has been out of control, you haven&#8217;t seen anything yet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 5<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>AEW Tag Team Title Tournament Final Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Lucha Brothers vs Scorpio Sky &amp; Frankie Kazarian<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Aubrey Edwards; at ringside: Private Party; watching in the back: The Dark Order)<\/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_69f346c7ed908','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_69f346c7ed908\" 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_69f346c7ed908\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Scorpio Sky pins Pentagon Jr. with a small package<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 12:37<\/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. As expected, this was a fast-paced and highly athletic match. The referee tried to keep only two men in the ring at a time as the match started, but she quickly found that she couldn&#8217;t contain the action. It was essentially a tornado match which isn&#8217;t very surprising since the Lucha Brothers barely seem to ever tag. SCU kept up with the brothers, but they also took a lot of damage. Kazarian took a nasty hit to the back of his head when he attempted to hurricanrana Fenix off the apron, and Kaz seemed shaky after that. Still, Kaz and Sky put up a great fight against the extremely exciting offense of Rey Fenix and Pentagon Jr. There should definitely be a rematch between these teams at some point.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis was another very fun show. Even the matches I didn&#8217;t think would be too competitive turned out to be very fun. I was excited to see Hikaru Shida return to an AEW ring, and I was also excited to see Shanna in her AEW debut. The Elite in a trios match was very fun. Omega definitely had the costume of the night. And of course, the main event was worth the wait. If I had to make one wish, I wish they had started the tag match with like thirty minutes left in the show. That would have made it feel more realistic when the commentators noted that there was no time limit and that there had to be a winner. That&#8217;s a nitpick though.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Lucha Brothers vs SCU<\/strong><br \/>\nVery good match.
