Matt Lee got the match underway against Rosario Grillo with a deep arm drag. Lee showcased his strong fundamentals in the ring by outwrestling his opponent in the early goings. He blocked a sunset flip and stomped Grillo in the face.

Hunter Knott got the tag, and so did Jeff Parker, who came in with a few haymakers. 2point0 delivered the 'sweet taste' combination move on Knott before setting the stage for the 'Two for the Show' finisher. Parker and Lee continued their impressive run of showings with another dominant win.

Result: 2point0 def. Rosario Grillo & Hunter Knott on AEW Dark

Grade: C

Garcia jumped in with his partners and unleashed a post-match attack on Hunter Knott. Garcia put Knott to sleep with a rear-naked choke while 2point0 took care of Grillo.

Completely unnecessary post match beatdown by #2point0 and @GarciaWrestling.

AEW Dark regular Baron Black returned to the show after a brief absence and started the match well with a wrist lock. Black was still winless in AEW with a 0-15 record.

Yuta baited Baron into a dropkick and continued the onslaught with an elbow strike in the corner. Black reversed a top-rope move and drove his knees into Yuta's back.

Black had Wheeler in a wrong spot as he got a 2-count with an exploder suplex. Yuta reversed the Manhattan drop, faked a dive, and landed a shotgun dropkick from the top.

Black still had life in him as he created some space with an elbow shot. Yuta got back with a German release suplex and running chop in the corner.

Black got a little overzealous and got caught in Wheeler Yuta's seatbelt pinfall lock for the 3-count.
