Backstage, Hangman Page says he’s going back to the hotel for a drink. Omega says he has a few jugs of milk in the fridge, so he’ll join him. Broken Matt Hardy is left with “The Bucks of Youth.” They ask for a different version of him, so he comes out as Matt Hardy from The Hardy Boyz. They want a few years before that, so he comes out as a younger version of Matt Hardy.

Private Party goes for Silly String, but Nick avoids it. Nick takes them down and goes for a moonsault off the apron, but lands on his feet when Janela moves.

The Butcher and the Blade attack The Young Bucks in the ring.

Winner by Pinfall: Brian Cage

Taz joins Brian Cage in the ring. Taz says it’s great to see the champ. Taz respects how Moxley has been super successful throughout his career through grinding. At Fyter Fest, he’s dealing with something different. He’s dealing with a machine. Taz wants him to bring the fight and grit Moxley is known for, as well as his heart. Cage will tear Moxley’s heart out of his chest. Taz tells Moxley to understand that this is “The Machine” Brian Cage. Survive if he lets you!

Segment: Britt Baker

Dr. Britt Baker is brought out to the stage on a wheelchair. It says “Roll Model” on the back. Tony Schiavone is at the top of the ramp with her. There’s a board that says, “The Rules of Being a Role Model.” Baker isn’t pleased with how he announced it. Rule #3 is all about her: Don’t hurt the role model. Last week’s egregious tandem assault left her with a broken tibia. It wasn’t an accident. It was a conspiracy that goes far and beyond.

Still photos are shown of Nyla Rose landing on her leg and Baker being tended to at ringside. Baker says there’s no women’s division without her. Kris Statlander being an alien is a crock of shit. Hikaru Shida is a cheater and conspirator. Nyla Rose has come off the top rope with precision and grace, so she couldn’t have guided herself away from her fragile leg? Conspirator!

Baker has Rebel get a bulletin board with a bunch of pictures and red string. All the evils done to her have seen Aubrey Edwards (mostly) refereeing the matches Baker was hurt in. Baker says she’ll be back for All Out. They’re on notice.

Backstage: The Inner Circle, Orange Cassidy

Alex Marvez is backstage with The Inner Circle. Chris Jericho tells him to shut his fat head. They’ll be out there getting back on track after they were robbed… Orange Cassidy walks through their shot. Jericho doesn’t like that.

Hikaru Shida vs. Christi Jaynes

This will be a non-title match. They lock up, and Shida backs her into the ropes before giving a clean break. Shida is showing a lot of confidence. Jaynes rolls under a lock up and dances. Jaynes mocks Shida a bit before kicking her in the back of the knee. Shida shoves her and hits some forearms. Jaynes reverses a whip, but Shida holds the ropes. Jaynes chops the chest and hits a rope aided arm drag. Jaynes spends time taunting the crowd, so Shida grabs the hair. Jaynes pulls the hair before Shida grabs the hair again. Shida then drives Jaynes headfirst into the turnbuckle. Shida hits a running knee strike before going to ringside. Shida hits a running knee lift on Jaynes, who was hanging over the apron. Shida gets her in the ring and hits a backbreaker. Shida then applies a modified chin lock. Shida lets go and hits a delayed vertical suplex for a two count. Shida goes to the second rope, but Jaynes climbs and hits a step-up enzuigiri. Jaynes goes to the top rope for a diving sunset flip, but Shida rolls through. Jaynes quickly punches her for a near fall. Jaynes goes for a lionsault, but Shida moves. Shida hits a pair of running knees for a near fall. Shida connects with a falcon arrow for the win.

Hangman Page and Kenny Omega are shown in their hotel rooms, with Page having a drink and Omega drinking milk.

In-Ring: Cody

TNT Champion Cody makes his way to the ring. Tony Schiavone is in the ring to interview him. Schiavone congratulates him on the win. Cody asks Schiavone if he knows why Tom Brady is his favorite quarterback. It’s not because he’s a Boston guy who isn’t welcome in Connecticut… it’s because he wasn’t picked first. Tony Khan started a company wanting the best wrestlers in the world. Cody wasn’t the first, second, or third call. It doesn’t bother him because he’s the very first champion of America’s greatest network.

People think his story is one of nepotism and favoritism. His story is about a 21 year old kid that got called up to television not knowing anything. Cody says he grew up before everyone. Cody says people can critique him bell to bell, but he’ll outrun anyone on a track. Cody says this TNT Championship will be an open challenge. Cody has an obligation to the fans that turn out in droves for them. He’ll be a fighting champion defending the title every week.

Kip Sabian & Jimmy Havoc vs. SCU (Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky)

Sabian and Havoc attack SCU before the match begins. Order is restored once SCU gets the advantage. They take Sabian down. Sky hits a backbreaker for a two count. Kazarian tags in and hits a leg lariat. Sabian quickly hits a jawbreaker and tags Havoc in. Kazarian gives him an arm drag and applies an arm bar. Sky tags in and attacks the arm. Kazarian tags back in and attacks the arm as well. Kazarian gives Havoc a drop-toe-hold into the ropes followed by a German Suplex for a two count.

MJF is with Wardlow backstage. MJF has been undefeated for over a year, but he hasn’t had a title match yet. When he heard that a certain someone was having a battle royal for a title shot, he decided to take part. Wardlow will be his insurance piece in this.

In-Ring: The Inner Circle, Mike Tyson

Chris Jericho says like a bunch of sexy phoenixes, they will rise again. Jericho got everyone official Stadium Stampede merchandise. It’s t-shirts saying that the Inner Circle won. Sammy Guevara hands out trophies with random sayings. Santana and Ortiz give Jake Hager a pair of discount Timberlands. Jake Hager reads a poem about the pumpkin-headed dipshits winning Stadium Stampede and does a line from the movie “Taken.”

Tyson tries to get back at Jericho, but they keep him back. Jericho screams for Tyson.
