Omega (c) vs. Knight - Part 2

Back in the ring, Kenny Omega told Kevin Knight he would never be him or take the gold away from The Cleaner followed by a pair of V-Triggers.

As Omega called for the One Winged Angel, The Jet turned it around into a Poisonrana.

The two battled back and forth until Omega caught Knight with a snappy Top-Rope Sunset Flip Powerbomb into a second Powerbomb followed by a V-Trigger.

Omega set up a Super Snap Dragon, but Knight tripped him into the Tree of Woe followed by Coast to Coast. The Jet then grabbed both championships.

He distracted referee Bryce Remsburg with the Men's World Championship then blasted The Cleaner with a Crash Landing on the TNT Championship.

Omega managed to kick out, firing back. The Jet managed to jump out of the One Winged Angel one more time, but a final V-Trigger set up the definitive One Winged Angel for the victory.

Winner: Kenny Omega to retain the Men's World Championship

This was a great main event and even more importantly a perfect audition for Knight as a future main event star.

He was never going to beat Omega on the road to All In. He did show that he could win that world championship in the future.

Afterward, the celebration was quickly ruined by The Death Riders, who stomped Omega into the mat.

The Young Bucks tried to make the save, but the numbers game was still too much for The Elite.

Will Ospreay arrived to make the save and refused to let anyone hurt The Cleaner, turning against The Death Riders. He sent them packing, even hitting Jon Moxley, before throwing off his patch.

Ospreay and Omega celebrated together until The Cleaner shockingly laid out The Aerial Assassin with the One Winged Angel. He stood tall with reluctant Young Bucks.

It is hard to say where Omega will go from here, but that came off as a heel turn, even if it is a complicated turn going into All In.

This was a weak PPV on paper and an inconsistent show in practice. The highs were more plentiful than the lows, but this will likely stand as AEW's weakest PPV of the year.

AEW Men's World Championship: Kenny Omega (c) vs. Kevin Knight

Kevin Knight attacked Kenny Omega from behind during the introductions then choked him out with his wrist tape.

This allowed The Jet to take over the action early, especially after going after the stomach of The Cleaner with knees.

Every time Omega tried to rally, Knight shut him down, poking at the eyes and using his athleticism to out-pace The Cleaner.

The crowd gave The Jet major heat early and often, including a "Speedball's better" chant that seemed to frustrate Knight.

The Jet got his knees up to counter a Moonsault, but Omega fought back into a V-Trigger.

Knight escape a One Winged Angel attempt but could not avoid a Snap Dragon. The Cleaner delivered a second on the apron.

With a crazed look in his eyes, Omega delivered a third on the announce table to a welcoming crowd.

Thekla (c) vs. Willow - Part 2

Thekla locked in a modified Muta Lock, Fish-Hooking her mouth into a perverse smile until Willow Nightingale made it to the ropes.

They fought to the apron where Willow teased a Death Valley Driver, but The Toxic Spider reversed into a DDT on the apron and a Diving Crossbody to the floor.

Thekla went for the Spear, but Willow turned it into a Sunset Flip Powerbomb and Death Valley Driver.

The challenger called for the Babe with the Powerbomb. The Toxic Spider reversed into a pin with a hand on the bottom rope, but referee Mike Posey caught Thekla's cheat in a generally good night for referee awareness.

Willow caught Thekla running for the Spear and landed a Babe with the Powerbomb. Skye Blue arrived to pull Thekla's foot onto the rope.

Willow planted Blue with a Babes with the Powerbomb on the floor then ran into a Spear in the ring. Willow slipped into a Backslide for the three count.

Winner: Willow Nightingale to win the Women's World Championship

The Conglomeration arrived for a joint high-five as AEW showed the All In graphic of Willow vs. Mercedes Moné.

This was an excellent world title bout, heavily driven by the hard-hitting heat between the two women built over a short time.

Willow delivered one of the best performances of her career and showed why she was the rightful winner of this contest.

Thekla had a great run as champion and will get back to the top in the future. For now though, Willow vs. Moné is back on the table, delivering another chapter in one of the women's division's best feuds.

Women's World Championship: Thekla (c) vs. Willow Nightingale

Before the next match, "Speedball" Mike Bailey called his shot backstage, announcing he would face Kyle Fletcher at Grand Slam: Mexico.

Mercedes Moné watched this match from a private position in the audience.

Willow Nightingale laid into Thekla immediately with a Spinebuster and Clotheslines in the corner.

The Toxic Spider tried to fight back but was Pounced out of the ring. Willow followed up with a Delayed Vertical Suplex on the floor.

Thekla finally found her opening by ducking a Cannonball that send Willow into the steel steps. She followed up with a snap kick to the stitched-up left ear of the challenger.

As blood began to pool in the bandage on Willow's ear, Thekla viciously kicked and bit at the ear.

Willow found her opening to rally with a Clotheline on the apron. After multiple corner strikes, the challenger hit a Second-Rope Shotgun Dropkick for two.

While supporting Willow more, the crowd showed more and more appreciation for Thekla as well in this hard-hitting contest.

The Toxic Spider went for an Octopus Stretch, but Willow turned it into a Backbreaker. The two fought to the top rope into a Spider Suplex.

Willow popped up, knocked down Thekla and responded with Rebound Clothesline, leaving both women down on the mat.

Mark Davis (c) vs. Andrade - Part 2

Andrade El Ídolo tried for the Corner Running Meteora and DM, but Mark Davis continued to respond with strong forearms to the chin.

An emphatic Close Your Eyes almost sealed the win, only for El Ídolo to kick out at the last minute.

The two fought to the apron where Davis teased an apron Piledriver. Andrade turned it into a Hurricanrana into the turnbuckle.

To loud "How You Know?" chants, El Ídolo Moonsaulted onto Davis on the floor followed by a Feint Moonsault in the ring.

Finally, the pants came off to a crowd roar while Davis threw up the middle finger at his challenger.

The champion got the knees up on a Frog Splash then went for another Close Your Eyes, but El Ídolo turned it into Día de los Muertos quickly transitioning into The DM to win.

Winner: Andrade El Ídolo to become the new National champion

This may have gone a bit long, but Andrade and Davis delivered strong consistent hard-hitting action throughout this contest.

The goal was to make Davis look good in spite of a likely title change, and that was certainly accomplished.

All signs now point to a lengthy reign as National champion for El Ídolo, who is one of AEW's top stars right now.

National Championship: Mark Davis (c) vs. Andrade El Ídolo

Mick Foley interviewed Divine Dominion, who made clear they were not afraid of anyone even The Brawling Birds and left Foley barking by the end.

Andrade El Ídolo arrived with new music and presentation, surrounded by four beautiful women.

Renee Paquette explained before the match that this was an important moment for Andrade to solidify his rising AEW career.

As the bell rang, El Ídolo caught Davis immediately with the Día de los Muertos for a quick near-fall.

Davis responded with strong offense, wearing down Andrade with chops and throws, but El Ídolo fired back with a Headscissor Takedown to the floor.

Andrade celebrated with the audience, including a kiss and selfie from a woman in the audience. The distraction allowed Davis to recover and take back over.

The dominance of Davis caused serious problems for Andrade, who struggled to sustain offense with his usual power strikes.

Finally, a Running Pump Forearm sent Davis to the mat. The champion countered the Corner Meteora into a strong Lariat, but El Ídolo responded with a Standing Elbow Drop and Three Amigos.

Painmaker vs. Psycho Killer - Part 2

Jericho started to bring out the implements of destruction including thumbtacks on hockey pucks and a barbed wire table.

The Painmaker also broke open Tommaso Ciampa with the help of sandpaper on his forehead. This led to noticeable blood flow.

The Psycho Killer responded by using one of the thumbtacked hockey pucks to cut Jericho open followed by the Running Knee for a near-fall.

The Painmaker locked in the Walls of Jericho until Ciampa fought free with a barbed wire bat.

Jericho caught Ciampa on the apron with a Death Valley Driver through the barbed wire table.

As the crowd enjoyed the gory violence, Jericho set up Ciampa on the second rope. Ciampa low-blowed The Painmaker then sent him through a mirror with an Aid Raid Crash for a near-fall.

Officials checked on Jericho as Ciampa pulled out a drill to crowd chants of "This is murder!".

The Painmaker spit green mist into the eyes of The Psycho Killer followed by a Judas Effect for a near-fall.

A barbed wire mirror and a tacked-up shoulder pad Judas Effect nearly won the match before The Painmaker used the drill on Ciampa to force a submission.

Winner: "The Painmaker" Chris Jericho

The least exciting match on paper may have been the most AEW match of the night so far. This was brutal hardcore violence.

While it got crowd-pleasingly corny in moments, the two also sold each big spot like it could seal one of the biggest wins of either man's career.

Ciampa needed the win more, but this match may have proved that there is some juice in The Painmaker eventually losing to a young hardcore star on the rise.

No Holds Barred: "The Painmaker" Chris Jericho vs. "Psycho Killer" Tommaso Ciampa

No "Judas" for The Painmaker led to a fairly flat reaction to the arrival of Chris Jericho.

This was the third time in the night with no "Elevated" and interrupted "Metalingus" that AEW did not give the crowd a singalong.

Tommaso Ciampa tried to start with a steel chair attack, but Jericho fought him off and threw out some surprise pocket sand to blind The Psycho Killer.

Ciampa and Jericho brawled around the ring until The Psycho Killer caught The Painmaker with a Fairy Tale Ending off the apron through the announce table.

Excalibur told the world that a young child behind him was calling for Ciampa to light a table on fire. A true Sicko in the making.

Ciampa found a hockey stick under the ring to the delight of the crowd but then drew the ire of the fans by wearing a Boston Bruins jersey and laying into a Youppi! plush.

Jericho saved Youppi! from a pin attempt by Ciampa and blasted him with the hockey stick while The Psycho Killer was trapped in a trash can.

Cage and Cope (c) vs. The Death Riders - Part 2

Claudio Castagnoli dragged Adam Copeland into the crowd to allow Pac to go for the Black Arrow, but The Patriarch got his knees up.

The beatdown continued until The Rated-R Superstar dragged himself back to the ring for the hot tag.

The crowd rooted on Cope as he overwhelmed The Death Riders, but the champions still needed to get in the ring at the same time to turn it around.

The Bastad almost stole the win with his feet on the ropes, but referee Bryce Remsburg caught him cheating.

The Death Riders combined for an Assisted Gotch Neutralizer on The Rated-R Superstar that almost won the match if not for Christian's break-up.

Cope caught Pac running on the Rebound Clothesline into a Crossface that almost sealed the win.

Finally, the champions got into the action at the same time, knocking down Castagnoli and connecting on the Assisted Spear for the victory.

Winners: Christian Cage and Adam Copeland to retain the World Tag Team Championships

Afterward, The Young Bucks arrived to stare down the champions, and AEW showed the graphic for Cage and Cope vs. The Young Bucks at All In.

It is a wonder how much an invested crowd can make a match feel special. While this was good, it was elevated big by the Montreal crowd.

There was little doubt about who was winning, but the crowd roar at each kick-out made this feel important.

Even though the challengers dominated the action, this was also a great showing for the champions, who did not miss a beat on multiple memorable hot tag comebacks.

World Tag Team Championship: Christian Cage and Adam Copeland (c) vs. The Death Riders

Before the next match, The Demand officially challenged The Conglomeration for the World Trios Championship for Dynamite.

AEW switched it up on the announce team, changing out Nigel McGuinness for Taz and Justin Roberts for Arkady Aura.

During Adam Copeland's entrance, Claudio Castagnoli and Pac attacked, laying into The Rated-R Superstar.

Christian Cage was late to make the save, and the numbers game led to The Death Riders dominating the early stretch of this match.

The crowd was not happy, fully cheering on the champions as Canadian wrestling legends.

When The Patriarch got the hot tag, he relied on dirty tactics to double-team both Castagnoli and Pac.

Eventually though, the number's game grew too much, putting Cage in the bad position. Pac dominated with painful strikes.

Hikaru Shida (c) vs. Maya World - Part 2

A Diving Meteora from Shida almost caught the challenger for three, but after her kick-out, Maya began to fire back.

A strong trio of Shining Wizards almost took the win for the challenger, but the champion rolled her way to the floor.

Shida attempted to use her kendo stick, and Maya kicked it away. Maya went for a Second-Rope Moonsault, but Shida got her knee up.

Unsheath the Katana from Shida to Maya nearly sealed the win, but Maya kicked out. The champion hit a series of hard strike into a Cutthroat Tombstone for another near-fall.

Shida managed to lock in the TBS Lock but seemingly did not want Maya to tap out, pulling her to her feet.

The champion mockingly hit three Running Knees followed by a Falcon Arrow, but Maya got her hand on the rope.

As Shida argued with the referee, Maya caught Shida with a Bridging Fallaway Slam for the victory.

Winner: Maya World to become the new TBS champion

Rallying the crowd after a deflating Double Chain match, Shida and Maya had the crowd invested throughout.

The now-former champion especially built up the crowd in rallying support of Maya, setting up a memorable finish.

This was a shocking title change, but Maya has earned the chance to run after her unreal Owen Cup. It should be interesting to see how long this first reign lasts.

TBS Championship: Hikaru Shida (c) vs. Maya World

Before the next match, Jon Moxley interrupted Will Ospreay's interview with Renee Paquette, promising to take business into his own hands since The Aerial Assassin cannot get the job done.

The TBS champion quickly went after Maya, laying her out on the floor with a Knee Drop off the apron. She trapped the challenger in the ropes on the apron then tripped her face-first.

Maya refused to stay down, diving onto Shida followed by a Low Running Dropkick for the first pinfall attempt of two.

Shida targeted the right leg of Maya, allowing her to slow down the challenger, and take over the action.

The crowd tried to rally Maya back into the action, who hit a Moonsault out of the corner for two.

The challenger went for a Shining Wizard, but Shida reversed into a Single Leg Boston Crab, trying to transition into the TBS Lock only for Maya to make it to the ropes.

Bang Bang Gang vs. The Dogs - Part 2

The Dogs almost took the win after a High-Low Combination on "Switchblade" Jay White, but Juice Robinson pulled Clark Connors off.

Juice fought off a Full Clip attempt on Switchblade and pulled Connors hard onto the steel steps on the floor with a loud impact that AEW did not show directly possibly due to how bad the landing was.

With David Finlay isolated, White and Juice laid into him with the chain including sending the chain up hard between Finlay's legs.

Daniel Garcia and Wheeler Yuta arrived to pull White out of the ring. The Gunns and Ace Austin sent The Death Riders running, but Marina Shafir passed Finlay his Shillelagh.

Finlay blasted Juice with the Shillelagh for the victory.

Winner: David Finlay and Clark Connors

This was easily the weakest match of the show so far. While the story was clear, the action was not particularly memorable throughout, especially with a surprising lack of blood.

It likely did not help that Connors took a bad landing near the end of the contest. Hopefully, he will be all right as it was hard to tell how hurt he was.

The interference took some of the drama out of the finish. Hopefully, the goal is to eventually let Finlay and White settle this one-on-one without any interference so that this can serve as only a boring footnote.

Double Chain: Bang Bang Gang vs. The Dogs

David Finlay and Clark Connors attacked "Switchblade" Jay White and Juice Robinson as the referees strapped the teams to the chains.

The Bang Bang Gang showed brutal ingenuity to fight back, trapping Finlay and Connors over the ropes and whipping them with the chains.

The Dogs fought back with their own unique chain moves including Connors wrapping up Juice on a steel chair for a Spear.

Finlay and Connors dragged them back to the ring where Connors choked out Juice around the post until Switchblade fought out of the corner with the chain.

This was the most muted response from the crowd so far on the night. Given the slower pace of this contest after the strong opening three, this was not shocking.

The crowd did get a bit louder though as Connors choked out Juice with his chain. Switchblade won a tug-of-war with Finlay to finally save Juice.

Finlay pulled White in time to protect Connors from a Blade Runner, setting up a Connors Spear.

Fletcher (c) vs. Bandido - Part 2

Bandido flipped onto Kyle Fletcher on the apron, teasing a Code Red to the floor. The Protostar blocked it with the ropes, but Most Wanted adjusted into a Running Sit-Out Powerbomb on the floor.

Bandido followed up with a Frog Splash to the floor that had the crowd loud followed by a Shooting Star Press for a close near-fall.

Fletcher blocked the 21 Plex but could not handle an impactful Tornado DDT. The two exchanged Headbutts on their way to their feet.

The Protostar countered the X-Knee, delivered an Elbow Smash, then teased a Running Knee that Bandido reversed into a Pop-Up Facebuster.

The two men fought on the top rope where Bandido hit a Moonsault Slam for a near-fall. Most Wanted followed up with an X-Knee and 21 Plex for the closest possible near-fall.

Bandido teased another 21 Plex, but Fletcher countered into a Running Knee and Sheer Drop Brainbuster for another close near-fall.

The crowd willed on Bandido as he fought off a Turnbuckle Brianbuster, but Fletcher hit an Avalanche Michinoku Driver.

He followed up by Lawn Darting Bandido into the second turnbuckle then hit a Turnbuckle Brainbuster (that missed the top turnbuckle, closer to hitting the second) to win.

Winner: Fletcher retains the International Championship

Don Callis immediately arrived afterward to celebrate with The Protostar.

Bandido might be one of the best opponents Fletcher has faced in AEW. The two flowed through impressive sequences with limited slip-ups.

Even when they did slip, they both made the most of it, selling the impact of the offense in this competitive battle.

Fletcher was always going to retain since his destiny is seemingly to collide with both Konosuke Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada at All In, but this was quality defense.

International Championship: Kyle Fletcher (c) vs. Bandido

Kyle Fletcher arrived with Don Callis but asked him to head to the back.

Bandido quickly caught The Protostar and nearly took him down quickly with a 21 Plex, sending Fletcher retreating to the floor.

The Protostar found his way back into the action to the anger of a rabid crowd after a Superkick counter to a Moonsault to the floor followed by a vicious Apron Powerbomb.

Fletcher reveled in his control and the heat of the crowd, allowing Bandido back into the action. His Bodyslam and Frog Splash delivered the first near-fall.

Realizing he was losing control of the action, Fletcher delivered a brutal Sheer Drop Brainbuster on the apron, nearly getting the count-out victory.

Bandido found inspiration from an encouraging fan at ringside to get back into it. He reversed a Half-and-Half into a German Suplex and an incredible 21 Plex rebounding over the shoulders of The Protostar for a near-fall.

Young Bucks vs. Death Riders - Part 2

Matt took more punishment before reluctantly allowing Nick Jackson to tag in. Nick ran over both men with confidence and set up a TK Driver.

Mox tripped Nick and set up a simultaneous Gotch Piledriver and Styles Clash for the first near-fall.

Mox and Ospreay took over the ring, hitting the Corner Running Clothesline Barrage, then The Death Riders' leader laid into Nick with a King Kong Lariat.

Ospreay accidentally hit Mox with a Springboard Forearm, setting up a wild sequence between all four men that ended with a BTE Trigger to Mox and a Hidden Blade to Matt.

The crowd serenaded the four men with "AEW" chants as they sold the damage of the furious action. Nick collapsed in the ring, and Ospreay reluctantly only went after the head after his forearm shots to the ribs did not faze Nick.

After encouragement from Mox, The Aerial Assassin looked poised to lay him forearm shots to the back of the head on Nick, and Matt protected him.

Mox forced a blind tag and laid in a Stomp for a near-fall on Nick. Matt tried to intervene further, but Mox laid into Nick with 2 Paradigm Shifts and a Death Rider.

When Mox went for a steel chair to possibly end Nick's career, Ospreay pulled the chair away, allowing The Young Bucks to fire back.

With a Superkick to Ospreay followed by a BTE Trigger to Mox, The Young Bucks laid into the Death Riders' leader with a series of Superkicks to seal the win.

Winners: The Young Bucks

This may end up as the match of the show not only for its action but also the storytelling throughout.

While concussion selling is often a touchy subject in professional wrestling, everyone in the match took it seriously and fully focused on the effect on Nick throughout.

When The Young Bucks rallied while Ospreay hesitated, it was clear that Mox and Ospreay still have philosophical differences that will echo into All In.

The Young Bucks vs. Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay

Refusing to slow down after a hot start, AEW went right into the hype and entrances for Matt and Nick Jackson vs. Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay.

For the first time, The Aerial Assassin arrived in the crowd with Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir. Ospreay played to the crowd but was more muted in his motions.

More importantly, there was no "Elevated" tonight, further emphasizing this was not going to be a fun crowd-pleasing performance from The Aerial Assassin.

Nick Jackson outpaced Ospreay to start this contest, taking advantage of what seemed to be a more hesitant Aerial Assassin.

There was a nasty head collision between Ospreay and Nick that left Nick especially dazed. The Aerial Assassin even asked the referee to check on him despite the annoyance of Mox.

This left Matt Jackson at a one-on-two disadvantage, especially helped by Shafir sending Matt into the steel steps behind the referee's back.

Just as Nick seemed poised to tag back in, The Death Riders' leader took him out and send him head-first into the floor with a Gotch Piledriver.

6-Man Ladder Match - Part 2

Much to the crowd's amusement, three tables arrived. "Jungle" Jack Perry sent The Beast Mortos through one while El Clon dived onto "Speedball" Mike Bailey to take him out.

Komander pulled off the craziest spot of the match with a Tightrope Spaceman Plancha onto Nick Wayne outside through a table.

After a few close calls with the contract, Wayne took out Clon with a Phoenix Splash off a ladder through another table.

"Jungle" Jack Perry took out Wayne in response with a gnarly Canadian Destroyer off the top of a ladder onto a propped-up ladder.

The crowd roared with electric energy for Speedball as he gave Mortos an Ultimate Weapon on a corner ladder then pulled down the No. 1 contender contract.

Winner: "Speedball" Mike Bailey to become the next No. 1 contender to the International Championship

With a wild collection of unbelievable athletes, this was electric, helped by a crowd that had one obvious favorite.

The only answer to win this match was Speedball. The crowd liked multiple men in this match, but they were booing anyone getting in Bailey's way.

While Bailey has faced Kyle Fletcher before, it is always an excellent contest and should be again soon.

Ladder Match to Determine the No. 1 Contender to the International Championship

The bell rang as the crowd fully established the favorite with a sustained "Speedball" chant.

The first ladder dash between Komander and "Speedball" Mike Bailey was ended by The Beast Mortos dumping the ladder then tossing Bailey onto the ladder in a corner.

Nick Wayne took out Komander with a Tope. Mortos responded with a snappy Headbutt to Wayne followed by a wild double DDT off Mortos by El Clon onto both Wayne and Komander.

Speedball and "Jungle" Jack Perry took out Mortos and Clon in simultaneous motion then headed to the stage where Jungle Jack was booed for going after Bailey.

Speedball and Perry Moonsaulted onto the Ladder Match field before Jungle Jack grabbed the biggest ladder and carried it to the ring where he again met Bailey.

Wayne ruined the back-and-forth with a Springboard Cutter on the apron. Mortos tossed Jungle Jack onto the field, but Komander recovered for a Tightrope Dropkick to knock down Beast.

The competitors set up three ladders in the ring, leading to a trio of brawls where Mortos kicked down Bailey and Komander's ladder, only to be knocked down by Perry.

Final PPV Pre-Show Hype

After a hype video for Kenny Omega vs. Kevin Knight, Jeff Jarrett and Mick Foley highlighted the importance of this moment for both men in Montreal.

The panel transitioned to talking up Hikaru Shida vs. Maya World followed by a strong hype package for a limited PPV build.

The panel then teased the 6-Way Ladder Match that will open Redemption to set up the next challenger for the International Championship.

After one final hype video, the entrances began for the ladder match to make sure the action could start at the top of the hour.

Hometown boy "Speedball" Mike Bailey got an unsurprisingly huge reaction from the Quebec crowd.

He soaked in the reaction for an extra 30 seconds before the last man arrived, "Jungle" Jack Perry, to his own singalong that extended into the main PPV transition.

World Trios Championships: The Conglomeration (c) vs. The Lethal Twist

After a hype video from "The Painmaker" Chris Jericho vs. "Psycho Killer" Tommaso Ciampa, The Demand headed to commentary for the first match of the night.

Blake Christian, "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson and Jay Lethal arrived with overwhelming confidence after just one recent TV win.

The Conglomeration—Orange Cassidy, Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong—appeared with backpacks and gold, also confident since they were on an impressive trios streak.

All six men in the ring stepped up the pace early in this contest before Strong cleared the ring by using Orange as a weapon against all three members of Lethal Twist.

Christian's impressive athleticism combined with the veteran gall of Lethal helped the challengers fight back, isolating The Messiah of the Backbreaker.

KOR tried to fight back, locking Johnson in an Ankle Lock, but Christian made the save. Freshly Squeezed found the hot tag to truly deliver on a hot tag.

When Johnson and Christian tried to slow him down, Orange put his hands in his pockets and jumped over both men.

Lethal locked Orange in the Tree of Woe, allowed Christian to mock Freshly Squeezed with faux shoot kicks, before turning it up to double-team Strong away from the save.

Lethal wanted to seal the win, but Strong pulled him to the floor. The only legal men took each other out on the floor before Orange laid in a Tornado DDT on Lethal.

After both Christian and Johnson tried to use the championship as a weapon, Lethal caught Orange for a near-fall off the Lethal Injection.

Strong broke up that pin then set up a High-Low with KOR to seal the victory and title retention.

Winners: The Conglomeration to retain the World Trios Championships

As expected of the talent, everyone delivered on athletic dramatics, especially Orange and Christian, who were flying around in this contest.

There was no real drama to the result as The Demand at ringside clearly are the actual threat to The Conglomeration.

While Orange, KOR and Strong have done well as champions, it may be time to move the gold to freshen up the scene, and Ricochet needs some gold.

Celebrate The Rougeau Family Dynasty

The pay-per-view hype continued with the strongest story of Redemption, Thekla vs. Willow Nightingale with Mercedes Moné waiting in the wings.

After some more conversation from the panel on the AEW Women's World Championship match, Daddy Magic arrived to the ring.

He introduced The Rougeaus in French ahead of the arrival of Jacques Rougeau and Raymond Rougeau.

Raymond took over the conversation to thank the fans, Tony Khan and AEW in both French and English before Jacques thanked the haters, playing more of the heel in jest.

Together, The Rougeaus and fans celebrated the family legacy with an Olé singalong.

Rocky Romero tried to ruin the moment, but Jacques slapped him followed by a strong straight kick from Raymond. Daddy Magic helped send Rocky out of the ring.

This was a fine celebration of an important family legacy, even if it is a shame that all it amounted to for AEW talent was Daddy Magic helping beat up Rocky.

The Buy In Has Begun

The show started with a video package highlighting the biggest matches of Redemption.

Mick Foley and Renee Paquette introduced fans from a special stage overseeing the action then sent the camera to the commentators - Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, and Nigel McGuinness.

Excalibur ran down the many ways to watch the show before hyping up the World Trios Championships match as well as the celebration of the wrestling royalty, The Rougeaus.

The commentators also ran down the main 10-match card, transitioning into a hype package for the AEW Men's World Tag Team Championships match.

After the video, Mick talked up his relationship with Christian Cage and Adam Copeland. The show then transitioned to a Young Bucks vs. Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay hype video.

Jeff Jarrett arrived to talk about the chaos around the road to All In.

The pace seemed to indicate AEW might be adding more matches to The Buy In, but nothing has yet to be added to this hour-long pre-show.

As strong as these video packages in AEW can be, there is absolutely room for one or two more matches for this show.
