This new match announced was an AEW World Trios Championship Open Challenge match of mystery team vs. Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta) & PAC (c).

This match was setup following a backstage promo segment involving Castagnoli & PAC calling out Yuta stating that they need him to show up next week with his AEW Trios title since they have a Trios title defense next week. Jon Moxley & Marina Shafir showed up and Moxley stated that Yuta is a grown man and can do what he wants. Moxley then stated that Yuta needs to look in the mirror and be the man he was taught to be.

In a follow-up segment, Yuta was interviewed backstage by Alex Marvez as he was trying to leave the venue. Yuta responded to Castagnoli, PAC, and Moxley’s comments talking about how he has been conflicted on recent events and has been distracted. This led to an AEW official showing up and handed Yuta his AEW Trios title that he stated Yuta left in the locker room. Yuta grabbed his title and stated that he takes pride in the Trios Championship and will kick whose ever ass he has to at Grand Slam.

In another follow-up segment, Private Party were interviewed backstage by Marvez who stated that BCC’s title defense would be an open challenge match. Quen & Kassidy accepted the challenge and Kassidy called out Moxley over what his group did to them and Komander last week.

In another follow-up segment, Moxley, Castagnoli, & Shafir came out through the crowd for Moxley’s scheduled promo time only to be jumped by Private Party in the crowd area. This led to a brawl breaking out that Moxley and his group managed to quickly get the upper hand. After some more attacks, Komander ran out from the crowd and into the ring. Komander attempted to hit a dive to Castagnoli who countered with an European Uppercut laying out Komander. Moxley and his pals continued their attack on Private Party and Komander that ended with Moxley grabbing a hammer and striking Kassidy’s hand with it before his group left.
