Quotes from The Wrestling Observer:

The Opps (Hook, Katsuyori Shibata & Samoa Joe) defeated Jack Banning, Starboy Charlie & Titus Alexander

Adam Copeland cut a backstage promo

Momo Watanabe defeated Serena Deeb

“This was a fine showcase of Watanabe’s hard strikes, as well as making sure the fans know what her finisher is ahead of her title challenge. Tony Schiavone brought up the match from NJPW Capital Collision last year between Mone & Watanabe, wondering if Watanabe used her International Women’s Cup win to get a measure of revenge on Mone…

They traded waistlocks before Deeb scored with a German suplex, and a hammerlock lariat got her a nearfall. Watanabe came back with a running Meteora for a nearfall, but Deeb countered the B Driver into a single leg crab. Watanabe fought out, hit a head kick, then landed the Peach Sunrise suplex for the win.

After the match, Mone got in the ring and piefaced Watanabe with the TBS Title. Watanabe responded with a head kick before dropping Mone with the Meteora. Watanabe stood tall with the TBS Title to end the segment.”

Will Ospreay cut a promo on Kyle Fletcher

Harley Cameron defeated Tatevik

“Tatevik jumped Cameron before the bell and beat her down as the crowd chanted Feel The Wrath. Cameron fought back and landed Her Finishing Move for the win.”

Kyle Fletcher responds to Ospreay

The Undisputed Kingdom (Kyle O’Reilly & Roderick Strong) defeated The Infantry (Carlie Bravo & Shawn Dean) (w/ Shane Taylor)

“Bravo and Dean laid out Strong with a scissor kick into a frog splash for a nearfall. Strong made the tag out to O’Reilly, who ran hot and sent Dean to the floor with the axe and smash strikes. He caught Bravo in a guillotine choke, with Dean making the save by clawing at O’Reilly’s eyes. Strong tagged in and cleared Dean out before hitting the Total Elimination for the win.”

AEW World Champion Jon Moxley responds to Adam Copeland

Hologram defeated Dralistico

“Hologram is quickly becoming must-see TV, as his matches continue to impress.”

The Outrunners (Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd) defeated The Premier Athletes (Ariya Daivari & Tony Nese) (w/Mark Sterling)

“The Hurt Syndicate are going to kill the Outrunners, and I will enjoy every second of it. Don’t fight the tide, Hurt Syndicate is red hot right now.”

AEW TNT Championship MatchDaniel Garcia (c) defeated Lee Moriarty

“Another quality defense for Garcia, as the crowd got into this match with Moriarty despite Moriarty’s lacking record on AEW TV…

Matt Menard was on the call in support of Garcia, as always. The two technicians started on the mat, with former Pure Champion Garcia winning the exchange. Moriarty snuck in a cheap shot on a rope break, but Garcia came back with a running boot. Moriarty dropped Garcia on the turnbuckle as he was laying in the ten punches, but Garcia came back with a big dropkick against the barricade.

After a commercial, Moriarty had Garcia in an abdominal stretch that forced the TNT Champion into the ropes. Moriarty focused on Garcia’s midsection before Garcia caught him with a flash pin for a nearfall. Moriarty came back with a crossbody for a nearfall, but Garcia scored with a suplex to get a second of reprieve. Garcia laid in with punches before landing a dropkick and firing up. He hit the ten punches and the Twist N’ Shout neckbreaker for a nearfall.

Garcia landed a high angle Backdrop Driver before bringing Moriarty all the way up and all the way down with a superplex. Garcia tried to score with a piledriver, but his bad arm allowed Moriarty to score with a flip slam for a nearfall. Garcia roared back with a lariat. Moriarty countered a piledriver with a jackknife pin, starting a pinning predicament that ended with both men dropping each other with clotheslines.

Champion and challenger traded strikes before Moriarty dragged Garcia into the Border City Stretch. Garcia transitioned into the Dragon Tamer, but Moriarty clawed at Garcia’s eyes to get him back in the Border City Stretch. Moriarty rolled to the middle of the ring, but Garcia finally got Moriarty up in the piledriver and scored with it to get the win and his sixth defense.”
