A video package showed the Hangman Page/Swerve Strickland time-limit draw. We are reminded that both men will challenge Samoa Joe in a three-way match for the AEW World Championship at Revolution.

Samoa Joe Talks…

AEW World Champion Samoa Joe is out and says that all was great with his reign until last week. Joe says they made his title match bigger and dumber and he says that AEW rewards mediocrity so they put him in a three-way match at AEW Revolution. Joe says he will injure both men and will teach them a lesson. Swerve Strickland and Prince Nana are out. Strickland says when they started this whole thing, it wasn’t supposed to be personal but the more that Joe runs his mouth, the more personal its getting. Strickland says that he’s on his way to becoming one of the best of all time and Joe needs to put some respect on his name. Swerve reminds us that he has gone onto face the biggest, baddest, and best that AEW has to offer and he always proves that its his house. Swerve reminds us all that at Revolution he will be the one holding the AEW Championship when the night is done.

Hangman Page is out and says that he signed on for a match where the winner would become the number one contender and Strickland couldn’t do it. Page thinks the match should be one-on-one with two people who respect that championship. Hangman says Swerve doesn’t deserve the title shot, nor the extra 5 minutes because he couldn’t get the job done. Samoa Joe says he’s heard enough from both and at AEW Revolution, he’s gonna whoop both of their asses.

Timeless Toni Storm Presents: Wet Ink

Storm talks about her tattoo, which reminds her of a girl she became friends with because she felt sorry for her. Storm said Deonna Purrazzo was her young girl, who she helped get into Japan. Storm says that Purrazzo was nurtured on her bosom of brilliance and suckled on the teat of talent. Storm said Purrazzo bit the tit that fed her and Purrazzo forgot she was just an extra. In the tattoo parlour they are in, Storm had her matching bird tattoo she shared with Purrazzo changed to a dagger going through it.

Renee Paquette was backstage with Deonna Purrazzo and asked her thoughts on what they just witnessed. Purrazzo said Storm talks too much she’s going to break her arm at Revolution.

The Young Bucks (Matthew & Nicholas Jackson) defeated Top Flight (Dante & Darius Martin)

The Jackson’s and Top Flight had a match you thought they would have. The match was very much full of high and intense spots. After a 50/50 match, Dante hits an assisted DDT with his brother and this resulted in a 2-count. Dante with a Suicide Dive on Nicholas, and Darius hit a Spanish Fly on Matthew. Nicholas managed to take out Dante on the floor. In the ring, Matthew went ofr a cover with his feet on the ropes, but the ref saw it. Nicholas argued with the ref and while this was happening, Matthew hits a Pop Up Punt Kick and his brother joins in for the EVP Trigger for the win.

Winners: Matthew & Nicholas Jackson

Tony Schiavone gets in the ring with The EVP’s and saus that they are undefeated this year so that makes them top of the rankings. Matthew says beating a team like Top Flight makes them the Number One contenders. Schiavone says Sting isn’t there because of the attack from last week. Matthew says he’s tired of hearing Schiavone burying them on commentary every week and calls it a breach of contract. Nicholas gives Schiavone a $1000 fine and asks him if he has a problem with that, then Nicholas pushes him down to the mat.

Matthew apologizes and wants to help Schiavone up, but he’s set up for a EVP Trigger, but Darby Allin is out and grabs a mic. Allin says the original mission statement of All Elite Wrestling was to change the world. Allin says he just wanted a job and did all he could, but the Bucks just hired their friends instead. Allin says he’s thankful that there was an EVP back in the day that had some sense. Allin then says that they don’t know what they got themselves into at AEW Revolution.

Renee Paquette is backstage in the Bang Bang Scissor Gang Lounge with the Bullet Club Gold & The Acclaimed. Switchblade Jay White said they have new merch. Daddy Ass & Austin Gunn want a 12-Man Tag on Rampage.

Willow Nightingale (w/ Stokely Hathaway) VS Skye Blue

Nightingale went up the ropes, but Blue slid through and hit a Nandos kick. She followed that up with a Powerbomb for 2-count. Blue with a Code Blue and the pin, but Hathaway distracted the ref which gave Nightingale the time to recoup and hit the Doctor Bomb for the 3-count
