Welcome to the results for AEW Dark: Elevation. This Monday's show featured seven matches, the usual number on the YouTube show.
Elevation witnessed two huge multi-man tag matches. One involved the Dark Order in a 10-man tag team match, while in the main event, Ruby Soho teamed up with two very popular babyfaces to defeat three equally detestable heels. Powerhouse Hobbs, meanwhile, dominated an ex-WWE Tag Team Champion before his match against Dante Martin.
So let's dive into this week's episode of Dark: Elevation:
