Mark Sterling then puts his body in the way of a dive, but Rosa takes him out with a somersault from the ring apron. However, turning her back allows Cargill to attack her.

Jade's power then proves to be too much as she catches Thunder Rosa in mid-air, dropping her onto the ring apron. However, she responds by attacking the knee of Cargill once again as this match remains outside of the ring. She then hooks Jade's leg over the guard rail and attacks it, working the leg once more.

Despite that work, Jade fires back again, launching her into the barricade. Cargill breaks up the count but things stay out of the ring as Rosa gets launched head-first into the ring post. However, she misses with a back elbow, only to end up being hit with a dragon screw into the second rope.

He says this place is a home for AEW and it gets him thinking about Brodie Lee. Punk says if there is anybody who says something to try and minimize the impact he made, that means they never met him.

Punk says he watched the tribute show for his friend and it made him want to come here. This then makes him think about someone who isn't worth his time, and that's MJF. He's a Twitter troll in the flesh, but he hides behind Dax and Cash, like last week. He is fine if MJF says he's done with him as he got to team with Sting and Darby Allin.

CM Punk claims he wants to be champion too. He says being here in Daily's Place, there is bigger and brighter things on the horizon for him. He says MJF is a bigger waste of Khan money than Tim Tebow, which gets a huge pop. Punk says MJF found out the hard way that on the mic, in the ring, and on commentary, nobody can touch him. He then teases it would be a real shame if somebody messed with MJF's quest for gold.

- Ricky Stark says ever since Dante Martin got involved with Lio, things haven't gone well for him. Powerhouse Hobbs then questions if he really wants to go a second round with him.

- Brian Pillman Jr is interviewed by Tony Schiavone. He says last week his brother walked into the House Of Black. He admits to not having much memory from that night, but he won't forget the bell ringing while Malakai tried to end Griff's career. But when he got up, things go fuzzy and his memory goes black as he was then laying on the ground himself.

He says now it is his turn to take a trip to the House Of Black. However, he won't barge down the door. He says he learned from his father you only get one life, and he's not giving him his to Malakai as he promises to be a new man next week. But then the lights go out and Black appears. He points to the ring and the lights go out once again and then Black disappears when they return.
