The Buy In Began –

Mick Foley Makes His AEW Debut on the Buy In Pre-Show

The evening kicked off with an enormous wave of nostalgia and energy during the Buy In pre-show. Renowned broadcaster Renee Paquette stood in the center of the ring to introduce a true hardcore legend, Mick Foley, who was making his official AEW debut. The New York fans rained down a thunderous ovation for the icon, who passionately declared that being in the city for this spectacular event was truly one of the biggest nights of his life. Foley’s emotional address instantly set a historic tone for the rest of the evening.

However, the feel-good moment was short-lived as the arrogant MJF marched to the ring to confront the legend. MJF aggressively insulted Foley’s career track record, mocking his famous underdog status and taking cheap shots at the New York Knicks for good measure. Foley fiercely fired back, reminding the challenger of his past embarrassing, rapid losses and predicting that Darby Allin would take both his dignity and his hair. When a frustrated MJF landed a low blow on Foley, Darby Allin rushed down the ramp to make a heroic save, prompting Foley to send Allin into battle with an iconic, impassioned “Bang, Bang!” rally cry.

The powerhouse tandem of Divine Dominion, consisting of “Megasus” Megan Bayne and “Colossal” Lena Kross, squared off against the challenger duo of Zayda Steel and Viva Van. Christopher Daniels accompanied Steel and Van to the ring, but before Divine Dominion even made their entrance, the dominant champions demanded that everyone in the arena bow down to their total dominance. Legally starting the contest, Steel immediately retreated to the floor to mockingly scream at Bayne that she only had five minutes to win. Steel took a slow lap around the ring before returning, but her initial offense failed instantly when Bayne blocked a DDT and completely absorbed a roll-up attempt without shifting an inch. Van tagged in next and found temporary success, catching Megasus off the top rope with a spinning heel kick that stunned the powerhouse, utilizing a low bridge to send Bayne over the top rope before a follow-up baseball slide was cut off on the outside by a massive thrust kick from Kross.

Lena Kross officially tagged in after Bayne delivered a series of punishing shoulder thrusts and a release German suplex into the corner. Kross maintained the physical assault, hitting a diving clothesline on a seated Van for a two-count before trapping her in the corner with repeated back elbows. Van valiantly fought out of the corner with stiff strikes and tagged Steel, who capitalized with a rising knee and a dramatic tornado DDT that earned a close near-fall with only sixty seconds left on the clock. Kross quickly halted the comeback with a back heel kick and tagged Bayne back into the match. The champions hit consecutive pump kicks from opposite corners before finishing Steel off with a devastating double chokeslam in the center of the ring to secure the pinfall with mere seconds remaining.

Winner: Divine Dominion (“Megasus” Megan Bayne & “Colossal” Lena Kross)

Garcia chopped Shibata repeatedly, but the legendary striker kept asking for more, firing up the crowd until Shibata stopped Garcia’s momentum with a back heel trip. Yuta and Castagnoli rushed in to prevent a tag, executing a conveyor belt of strikes on HOOK in the corner until HOOK rolled under their grip to make a hot tag to Bowens. Bowens cleaned house instantly, dropping Garcia with a neckbreaker and hitting Yuta with a leg lariat before ripping Yuta back into the ring with a twisting DDT.

Harwood escaped an early Killswitch attempt and floored Cage with a big lariat, prompting Stokely to hand Harwood a bundle of barbed wire. Harwood wrapped the wire around his arm and charged, but Cage kicked the arm and put Harwood down with a reverse DDT before wrapping the barbed wire around the middle rope to grind Harwood’s face into it. Copeland smashed Harwood with a crossbody against the barbed wire ropes, and Cage took the referee’s belt to start whip-striking Harwood mercilessly. FTR rallied when Harwood sent Cage shoulder-first into the ring post, allowing Wheeler to throw Copeland into the steel post with a chair wrapped tightly around his neck.

The battle shifted back into the ring where Cage grabbed a pair of pliers from a toolbox, utilizing them to pull at Harwood’s nose and aggressively crack Wheeler’s groin. Harwood stopped the torture by striking Cage with the toolbox, smashing Cage’s injured arm with a steel chair before heading to the floor to help Wheeler spike Copeland through the Spanish announce table. FTR placed Cage’s arm inside a broken cinderblock on the steel steps, smashing it repeatedly with a chair while Cage painfully screamed obscenities into the microphone. Cage managed a desperation spear on Harwood, but Wheeler wrapped barbed wire around Cage’s neck to locked in a choke before FTR hit a devastating Shatter Machine.

Stokely climbed the apron to dismantle the top rope, but the chaos peaked when Beth Copeland arrived on the ramp, knocking Stokely down and kicking him into the steel steps. Harwood covered an outside table in lighter fluid and set it on fire, but Beth pulled Stokely into harm’s way, causing Wheeler to spear his own manager through the flaming table. Inside the ring, FTR set up Copeland for a Conchairto, but Beth rushed in to deliver a low blow to Harwood, allowing Cage to hit a spear and Copeland to land a piledriver. Cage locked in the Sharpshooter while Copeland applied a crossface, and Beth flipped over a set of steel steps to reveal “Spike,” the nail-covered wooden weapon. Copeland dug Spike directly into Harwood’s head, finally forcing him to scream “I Quit!” to crown new champions.

Takeshita nailed Okada with an early big boot and a flying clothesline, but Okada hung onto the ropes to slow the pace, eventually putting Takeshita on the top turnbuckle and dropkicking him all the way to the floor. Okada took his time to gather himself on the outside, methodically running Takeshita into the steel steps and the barricade to assert his dominant presence.

Back in the ring, Okada hit a neckbreaker and a cocky, one-foot cover that only served to fire up Takeshita’s fighting spirit.

Stadium Stampede Match: Team Jericho vs. Team Demand vs. Team Dogs vs. Don Callis Family

The highly anticipated Stadium Stampede match was an absolute spectacle of pure anarchy, featuring 14 individuals fighting across the entire arena and backstage facilities. Team Jericho, featuring MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, the Young Bucks, Jack Perry, and Kenny Omega, squared off against The Demand, The Dogs, and the Don Callis Family. The match began with an immediate 14-person brawl in the ring before Ricochet executed a spectacular shooting star press off the top rope onto a massive group of bodies. The battle quickly fragmented, with Benjamin launching a somersault dive to the floor and Jack Perry hitting a moonsault off the apron using a vacuum cleaner tank on Mark Davis.

The backstage footage showed pure chaos; Bobby Lashley applied the Hurt Lock on Toa Liona in the trainer’s room, only for Lio Rush to make a surprise appearance and assist Lashley. In the concession area, a massive food fight erupted, resulting in the giant Satnam Singh gorilla-pressing a person through a table. Back at ringside, a bizarre distraction occurred when a dinosaur in a blonde wig spat an unknown substance into Andrade’s face. The Young Bucks placed Clark Connors in a shopping cart and superkicked it, while Benjamin delivered a German suplex to Liona from the apron through a table. Lashley speared Mark Davis through a table, and Omega delivered a One-Winged Angel to Andrade through another table.

The conflict intensified as the competitors utilized the stadium’s unique layout to maximize the destruction. In the upper concourse, the Young Bucks engaged in a high-stakes game of ping-pong with The Dogs, using heavy plastic trash cans and merchandise display cases as weapons. Connors briefly gained the upper hand, only to be tossed onto a upward-moving escalator where the Bucks were waiting at the top to deliver consecutive tandem superkicks. Meanwhile, near the stadium’s loading docks, Jack Perry chased Mark Davis onto a stationary golf cart, where Davis was left blindsided by a sudden collision from the rest of the Jurassic Express.

Back near the ringside area, the sheer volume of high-flying maneuvers brought the New York crowd to a state of absolute frenzy. The remaining members of the Don Callis Family tried to isolate Kenny Omega, but the former world champion fought through the numbers game, unloading a series of V-Triggers against the steel barricade. Shelton Benjamin kept the ringside perimeter clear by executing a massive overhead belly-to-belly suplex on Bishop Kaun directly through a row of plastic folding chairs.

In the absolute climax of the matchup, Ricochet found himself completely isolated in the center of the ring, surrounded by all seven members of Team Jericho’s elite alliance. The high-flyer endured a rapid-fire combination of a rising knee from Benjamin, a thunderous spear from Lashley, and an assisted flying knee from Perry. The Young Bucks immediately followed up with the BTE Trigger, setting up Chris Jericho to execute a definitive Lionsault on Bishop Kaun to officially secure the pinfall victory for his team.

Following the historic victory, the arena roared as the winning unit celebrated in the ring. In a wonderful, emotional tribute to the late, great hardcore icon Sabu, Chris Jericho set up a single table in the center of the ring, pointed directly to the sky, and launched himself through it to close the historic match.

Winner: Jericho, The Hurt Syndicate, Young Bucks, Jack Perry & Kenny Omega

AEW World Championship Title vs. Hair Match: Darby Allin (c) vs. MJF

The spectacular main event featured an emotional Title vs. Hair match, with the reigning champion Darby Allin defending against the former champion MJF.

Allin fought back heroically, hitting a Diamond Dust stunner and a Coffin Drop off the announce table to the floor. MJF responded with a package piledriver onto the steel steps, leaving Allin visibly compromised.

The match reached an unbelievable level of risk when the action spilled to the entrance ramp. MJF placed Allin in the barber’s chair and produced an electric razor, but Allin fought free and locked in a guillotine choke. Allin placed MJF on a table, climbed 20 feet into the air to the top of the Double or Nothing stage sign, and delivered an unbelievable Coffin Drop through the table. Allin suffered a massive gash on his head from the impact but managed to bring MJF back into the ring for another Coffin Drop, which MJF incredibly kicked out of. In the final sequence, Allin attempted a top-rope maneuver, but his shaky legs gave out. MJF met him on the top turnbuckle, executing a devastating Avalanche Tombstone Piledriver followed by a headlock takeover to secure the three-count and regain the championship.

Winner: MJF (NEW AEW World Champion)

As the new champion celebrated keeping his hair and reclaiming the gold, medical personnel entered the ring to place a broken Darby Allin on a stretcher. The arrogant MJF stood over the stretcher to mockingly pose with the title. Suddenly, TNT Champion “The Jet” Kevin Knight rushed the ring, forcing MJF to retreat. However, in a shocking betrayal that left the entire arena completely silent, Knight turned around and executed a spectacular UFO Splash directly onto Allin while he was still strapped to the stretcher. Knight flipped the stretcher over completely, staring down at the medical staff tending to the ruined former champion while MJF clapped from the stage, bringing a wild night to a stunning, dark conclusion.
