Adam Cole and MJF will face each other in the main event for MJF’s world championship. The story of Cole and MJF, known collectively as “Better Than You, BayBay” — has been one of the most compelling storylines in AEW in recent weeks.

Live results begin here:

Better than You, Baybay d. Aussie Open to win the ROH world tag-team titles: A simple and crowd-pleasing win for Cole and MJF to win the ROH world tag team titles. After it was over, Cole and MJF showed rivalry but not dissension.

Hook d. Jack Perry to win the FTW title: Longer than the first match — Perry rode in a limo to the ring and the first few minutes were on the limo, including Perry crashing through the glass windshield. Once it got to the ring, it was back and forth, Perry missed a moonsault and Hook locked in the Redrum submission for the win.

CM Punk d. Samoa Joe for the “real” world championship: Both men couldn’t help but smile and play to this huge crowd, even during the match. It raised everything to a new level. Joe had much of the early offense, bloodying Punk’s head. Punk paid tribute to his ROH past, to Terry Funk, and even had a mocking tribute to John Cena and Hulk Hogan. Punk won with his old Pepsi Plunge finisher. Great match.

Konosuke Takeshita, Jay White and Juice Robinson d. Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi and Hangman Page when Takeshita rolled up Omega. Incredible match, just what a six-man should be — not guys kicking out of finishing moves, but instead getting saved by teammates. Everyone had their big moments, with a big focus in commentary of getting Takeshita over as a world-beater. The work bore that out.

FTR d. Young Bucks for the AEW world tag-team championships: FTR retains with a Shatter Machine finisher out of nowhere. FTR kicked out of multiple finishers, including two BTE triggers and a Meltzer driver, in a long match that took its time to build but became something special toward the end.

Stadium Stampede: Orange Cassidy, Penta, Eddie Kingston and the Best Friends d. Santana, Ortiz and the Blackpool Combat Club: The first part of this match was the typical Stadium Stampede spots, with split screens, violence all over the building. One highlight was Penta jamming a handful of skewers into Jon Moxley’s forehead. Once the match got to the ring, it turned into a great, more traditional weapons brawl. Cassidy got the pin after an Orange Punch with his hand covered in broken glass.

Saraya d. Hikaru Shida, Toni Storm and Britt Baker for the AEW women’s title: Saraya sprayed paint into the eyes of former partner Toni Storm to grab the pin. This was all about the winning moment, as Saraya celebrated with her family in her delirious home country.

Sting and Darby Allin d. Swerve Strickland and Christian Cage in a coffin match: This felt like a throwback to an Undertaker match, but at a faster pace with many more moving parts. That’s a compliment. Allin closed the coffin lid to get the win in a wild one.

Chris Jericho vs. Will Ospreay: Ospreay won with a Hidden Blade and two Stormbreakers to the delight of the crowd. One of so many show-stealers on this night — truly, picking your favorite match is a matter of personal taste. Sammy Guevara seconded Jericho, but Jericho was upset with Guevara after the loss.

The Acclaimed and Billy Gunn d. the House of Black. Very good match, felt like a really good TV main event. All three men covered Brody King for the victory. The House of Black showed respect to the winners after it was over, then the Acclaimed had “the world’s biggest scissor party” to fireworks in the ring.

AEW world championship: MJF d. Adam Cole. MJF won with a small package in a match with numerous twists — but apparently no heel turns. Both competitors teased turning on the other during referee knockouts or out-of-ring confrontations, even with Roderick Strong acting as a sort of devil on Cole’s shoulder, but it never happened. At one point, a knockout left both men in a pinning position, and the match was called a draw — but then both agreed to continue the match to a finish, and that’s when things really got going. This was a fantastic athletic match before it turned into one of the better storytelling matches you’ll see. On a night with some all-time spotfests and pure wrestling, this was a worthy closer. Cole was distraught after the defeat, but MJF pumped him up, reminding him of their ROH tag championships and declaring that their friendship meant more than the belt. Finally, the two men hugged it out. The “Better Than You Baybay” tag-team story continues.
