The show opens up with “Hangman” Adam Page and Swerve Strickland making their entrances for the first match of the evening, which is the AEW World Championship #1 Contender’s Match with the winner moving on to Revolution to face AEW World Champion Samoa Joe for his championship.
The match begins with Hangman Page slapping Swerve Strickland and a brawl breaking out to the ring. Strickland then sends Hangman to the fans and follows that up by leaping over the barricade to lay Hangman out, but as soon as the fight returns to the ring it is Hangman that turns things around by stomping a mudhole on Strickland until Strickland answers back with a big boot.
Hangman then hits Swerve with a fallaway slam and he drops bombs on Strickland after pulling him away from the top rope. Strickland then focuses on the arm of Hangman, but Page fights back and hits Swerve with a lariat to the back of his neck. Hangman then slams Strickland on top of the barricade before hitting him with another fallaway slam, but this time on the floor.
Page then looks to end things as he attempts his Buckshot Lariat finisher, but Strickland thwarts Hangman’s attempt and gets thrown over the top rope with his back hitting the apron hard on the way down. Hangman then tries to hit a moonsault on Strickland, but Strickland avoids it and nails Hangman with a flat liner. Strickland then follows that up by flying over the top rope onto Page, then hitting him with a diving elbow to the back.
Strickland hits Page with the House Call, but he only gets a two count. Page and Swerve then head to the top turnbuckle, but as Hangman tries to put Strickland down, Swerve is able to turn this around and hit an enziguiri on Page. Strickland is not letting down as he continues his attack on Page and Hangman suddenly hits him with a Powerbomb, but it only keeps Swerve down for a two count. Swerve then stops the Buckshot Lariat attempt from Hangman and hits Page with a Lariat of his own before hitting the Swerve Stomp on Page, but Page kicks out at two.
Page makes his way out of the ring, but Strickland goes after him and hits him with a running boot. Hangman and Swerve then stand on the guardrail and Page hits a nasty DDT to Strickland right on it. Strickland then hits Page with a backbreaker, but Hangman kicks out once again. Hangman then makes his way to the top ropes, but gets pushed and has his ankle stuck, which allows Strickland to hit the Swerve Stomp.

Strickland then sets up another table and tries to hit a 450 inside the ring, but Hangman gets his knees up. Hangman then hits Swerve with a big lariat and follows it up with his Buckshot Lariat finisher, but Strickland gets his foot on the ropes. Hangman then hits a Deadeye and as Strickland falls to the floor, Hangman tells the official to count him out. Prince Nana then dances all around Swerve and that motivates Strickland to get back into the ring, but is immediately booted back out. Hangman then gets a chair and nails Nana with it, but he turns around and gets it kicked into his face.
Strickland then hits a Swerve Stomp on Hangman, but tweaks his ankle and Hangman turns his focus on that and twists it. Strickland then sends Page into the announce table and that leads to Hangman hitting the Deadeye on Swerve through the table. Strickland then goes for another Swerve Stomp, but Hangman moves. Hangman then looks to finish things off with his Buckshot Lariat, but Strickland reverses it into the JME Driver and just as he is about to win, the bell rings and time runs out.
The match is declared a draw.
After the match, Swerve gets on the microphone and says he didn’t go through all of that just for it to end like this.
