Tony Schiavone got on the ring to thank the fans for welcoming AEW to London but he was swiftly interrupted by Jeff Jarrett and his crew. Jarrett got on the mic and started running down the crowd saying that the United States paved the way for this event, not England. This led to Paul Wight and Anthony Ogogo interrupting and bringing with them Grado. Paul Wight knocked out Satnam Singh and the threesome decimated Jarrett’s crew ending with a guitar shot on Jarrett by Grado.

AEW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP:
MJF (c) def. Adam Cole
Standing count begins in the ring as both men slowly get back to their feet…shouting for a DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE that ends up connecting! They…they cover each other!? The ref counts it, and calls for the bell as this is being ruled as a draw!
Just as soon as Roberts make the announcement, however, Cole grabs the mic demanding five more minutes from the champ just like at their World Title Eliminator match months ago. Max says no…because five minutes isn’t enough! We’re going till there’s a winner in f–king Wembley!
The bell rings and we go right back into this match….but the ref gets knocked out! This drives MJF to grab a chair from ringside…only to toss it into the hands of Adam Cole! They play hot potato with the chair, waiting to see who gets “caught” by the ref as Cole drops to the canvas…and MJF wraps the chair around his neck before hitting the canvas himself!
The ref is finally up and finds himself arguing with Cole before MJF takes the chair off, rolling Cole up for a nearfall! This is followed by the Heatseeker for another nearfall! The match ends up on the apron now…with Cole catching the champ with a straightjacket German suplex onto the apron! Count begins as Cole debates his next move, deciding to hit the champ with a Panama Sunrise onto the floor!
Ref has the count going as Cole brings MJF into the ring…and STILL only gets a nearfall when he makes the cover! Ref checks on MJF as Cole gets to the corner, but he drags the champ back toward the corner as he sets up for another Panama Sunrise…but MJF pulls the ref in, and HE takes a Panama Sunrise instead!
MJF reaches down deep, pulling out the Dynamite Diamond Ring as he gets to his feet. Max seems uneasy about what he wants to do as Cole tries to wake the ref up. Max decides better of it, putting the ring back as Roderick Strong runs in, giving the champ a low blow before leaving! Strong tells Cole to go for the Panama Sunrise, and Cole obliges…but the ref is still out as Cole drops the Boom on the champ!
Cole with the cover, but the ref is STILL out before finally stirring…a slow, slow count leads to the champ narrowly kicking out! Strong throws the title into the ring toward Cole, telling his best friend to do what he needs to…as Cole removes his team t-shirt, focusing on his own intentions as he picks the belt up!
MJF is on his knees as Cole sizes him up…but he throws the title out of the ring! Strong is angry as he leaves the ringside area. Cole yells at Strong as he turns his attention to MJF…who catches him with a small package as the ref makes the count! MJF gets the pin and the win in our main event to retain the AEW World Championship!
Post match:
Cole is beside himself, crawling to the corner to process what just happened as Max tries to cheer Cole up saying these people still love him. Crowd chanting to hug it out as Max tells Cole to “watch this,” grabbing the ROH World Tag Team Championship belts from ringside as he reminds Cole we still have those…but Cole shoves the titles out of the ring!
Max is livid about this, running Cole down before throwing the AEW World Champinoship at Cole and telling him to do what he wants to with it as Strong returns to rile Cole up into doing the dirty deed…but Cole cannot bring himself to do it! Cole drops the title much to the chagrin of Strong…and the ROH World Tag Team Champions hug it out!
Confetti pours out as friendship prevails at the end, The Kingdom holding back a furious Roderick Strong as we get a huge display of pyro to celebrate one hell of a wrestling event for everyone involved. The commentary thanks fans for watching before revealing that we will be BACK in Wembley next year!
