AEW Rampage kicked off with Jon Moxley vs. Anthony Bowens. Moxley didn't wait for the bell to ring. He sent Max Caster crashing out of the ring before hitting Bowens with a German Suplex.
Jon Moxley followed it up with a series of right hands to Anthony Bowens. Moxley and Bowens started to brawl through the crowd and the latter got a couple of shots in. At ringside, he took control briefly by smashing his opponent's arm against the ring post.
The former AEW World Champion reversed a vertical suplex and hit a release suplex of his own, followed by kicks across the chest. Caster caught Moxley's boot from ringside giving Bowens a chance to hit a neckbreaker.
Anthony Bowens continued to work Jon Moxley's arm during the ad break. He followed it up with a superplex but the former AEW World Champion kicked out at two.
Bowens headed to the middle rope but the move backfired. Moxley almost hit him with a Paradigm Shift and then dumped him over the top rope and into Max Caster. He then wiped out Caster with a tope suicida but this gave Bowens another opening.
He hit Moxley with his patented draping DDT, getting a nearfall. Bowens then hit Jon Moxley with a super kick but the latter immediately replied with a slap across the face and then a Piledriver for a nearfall.
He followed it up to more elbow strikes to Bowens who hit back by planting him in the middle of the ring for a nearfall. The Acclaimed member screamed at Moxley to stay down as he hit him with a bot across the jaw.
Bowens then took the chain from Max Caster but Moxley saw it coming and hit him with a cutter. Caster went to charge at the former AEW World Champion but was clotheslined out of the ring.
Moxley then turned back to Bowens and took him down with a lariat. He followed it up with the Paradigm Shift to pick up the win to kick off AEW Rampage.
