Moxley says he knows exactly who King is and he asks how big King’s heart is because he’ll be swinging in deep waters with the biggest Shark in AEW.

Matt says Christian is the “Michael Jordan of being an asshole” and says that Jungle Boy has become a friend to him. He says Jungle Boy respected and trusted Christian only to get screwed over by him. Christian mocks Matt claiming to be buddies with Jungle Boy all of a sudden and says that Matt is starting to make Jeff seem like the sober one.

Matt says he knows what Christian is doing and says that he just wants to use Luchasaurus to try and make as much money as he can off him but says he did the same thing with Private Party and he regrets it. Matt says his life has been a mess the last few months and maybe that’s because Karma got him but he’s here to make sure no one else gets taken advantage of. Christian says the only reason he is out there is because he’s a clout chaser and says he’ll use anyone including his wife, his father-in-law or his kids. He says he’ll even turn a blind eye to his brother’s issues for one last run.

Christian says that he is the hottest, most influential star in AEW and Matt just wanted to be near him.

Hobbs screams that he’ll beat Swerve’s ass is and says they keep talking about wanting to prove who the best tag team is but before they can say anything else the Young Bucks walk out.

Matt Jackson says Hobbs may as well have just cued up their music for them by saying “the best tag team” over and over. Matt says the tag division is on fire and that everyone in AEW is “eating well” but they are the ones that set the table in the first place. Nick says that they are both good teams and says they had a great match at Double or Nothing but they still didn’t get the job done against Jurassic Express.
