They will start tonight off against each other, as well.

In-Ring: Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley

Danielson says that back in the early days of ROH, they started and finished matches with a handshake. He grabs an unconscious Daniels and shakes his hand but then says this isn’t Ring of Honor and he starts stomping the shit out of Daniels face. Danielson says he’ll do the same to Moxley at Revolution.

Jon Moxley walks out and says that he can see that Bryan Danielson is better and more violent than ever. He says that Moxley is at a crossroad in his career with one path being him getting his head kicked in on Sunday and never be heard of again but he chooses the other path, which sees him running right through Danielson. He says he will finally beat Danielson and the Story of Jon Moxley is just beginning. He says the next chapter will be written in blood. Moxley tells Danielson to take his shot right now and they square up but Danielson retreats instead.

In-Ring: CM Punk, MJF

CM Punk walks out and says he used to wake up in the morning and ask himself, “am I the bad guy?” Punk says up until a week ago he was certain MJF was THE bad guy in AEW but what he did last week took courage and it’s courage he didn’t think MJF had. Punk says MJF talked about a lot of important things but he can’t shake the feeling that he is begin gaslit by MJF. Punk says he doesn’t think MJF is lying but his question is his sincerity.

Punk says there is a famous picture on the internet of a young CM Punk meeting Stone Cold and after “much lesser men” framed him as someone that took his ball and went home he didn’t get mad and lash out at the world. Punk says he’s seen MJF knock out the legendary Dean Malenko who is suffering from Parkinson’s Disease and he watched Pillman bury the late, great Brian Pillman and all of the things that he said about Darby Allin’s uncle. Punk says that hurt people hurt people.

Punk says that when he came to AEW, MJF offered a handshake to him but he refused. He says that nothing he can say can be more impactful than something he can do and he needs MJF to come out for him to do that. MJF walks out and says that he used to be just like MJF, full of hate and that he has done awful things. He says he once poured alcohol down an alcoholic’s throat and mocked a wrestler’s addition until he lost his job because of it and all that heat won’t just keep him warm, it will burn him up.

Punk says respect isn’t given, it’s earned. Punk says this is bigger than that and says there is an 11-year old watching right now that looks up to MJF just like MJF looked up to Punk. Punk says he asked himself this morning and asked if he was the good guy and he says he finally had an answer. He said the answer is that he is trying and offers a handshake to MJF. MJF pushes his hand away and hugs Punk. Punk hugs MJF back but then MJF kicks him in the balls and hits the Heat Seaker. Wardlow brings the diamond ring out and MJF hits Punk with it.

FTR walks out and holds off security as MJF has busted Punk open. They put the dog collar around Punk’s neck and MJF tells him that he’s a “stupid, stupid old man.” MJF says that he is a snake and says the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist. “This Sunday I am going to show you and all these mindless sheep I am the devil himself,” MJF says. Spears starts choking Punk with the chain until Sting, Allin and Sammy Guevara chases The Pinnacle off.
