Danielson noted that he was watching Jon from back where he was (WWE) and claimed that Moxley was the best AEW World Champion. Danielson suggested that if Jon had a little support he would still be AEW Champion. Bryan said that the shouldn’t be fighting each other, they should be fighting together.

Danielson claimed that there is no reason why some millennial cowboy should be AEW Champion. Bryan added that there is no reason why someone dressed as a dinosaur should be a tag team champion and someone who’s main contribution to society is a vlog as the TNT Champion.

Bryan told Moxley that they could run this place together. Danielson added that Wheeler Yuta is coming to the ring with a couple of jokes like Danhausen & Orange Cassidy. Danielson brought up Lee Moriarty and getting him away from Dante Martin’s high flying bullcrap and they trained the future of professional wrestling.

Danielson told Moxley that he doesn’t have to answer right now and wants him to think about the greatness that we can create and the legacy that Jon wants to leave. Bryan left the ring and Moxley gave a funny look into the camera at the end of the segment.

Dark Order (Colt Cabana, Evil Uno, John Silver, Stu Grayson) faced The Elite (AEW Champion Kenny Omega, Adam Cole, and The Young Bucks) in this week’s main event. The Elite came to the ring dressed as Ghostbusters. Colt Cabana was dressed as Brandon Cutler, Stu Grayson was God of War, John Silver was Bambi and Evil Uno was dressed up as a cowboy.

Adam Cole and John Silver started off the action by trading punches. Silver hit a Back Body Drop and tagged in Evil Uno. AEW World Champion Kenny Omega tagged in and got sent to the corner. Evil Uno went for a Splash but Kenny turned around and Uno crashed into the proton pack. Dark Order battled back and delivered some Body Slams and posed in the ring. Nakazawa and Cutler were dressed up ringside. Nakazawa hit Evil Uno with a Splash while wearing a fat suit.

When Dynamite returned, Grayson planted Omega with a Frankensteiner. Nick Jackson leveled Cabana with a Superkick but turned around into a Back Body Drop from Silver. Young Bucks battled back and brought Silver to a Superkick Party. Matt Jackson tagged in and hit a Brainbuster. The Elite hit Silver with some Superkicks and went for the cover but Stu broke it up at two.

Evil Uno hit a Neckbreaker on Nick Jackson as Omega hit a V-Trigger on Colt. The referee got knocked out and The Elite capitalized with a series of low blows. The Elite followed it up with a proton pack Splash on the Dark Order in the middle of the ring. It was then revealed that it wasn’t Cutler dressed as the Marshmallow Man, it was #1 contender Hangman Page. Hangman Page planted Kenny Omega with the Deadeye as Silver planted Matt Jackson with a Powerbomb for the pinfall victory. Dark Order and Hangman Page celebrated to close the show.
