[HOUR ONE]
-They opened with a wide shot of the ring, stage, and fans. They went to ringside where Excalibur introduced the show alongside Tony Schiavone and Taz. They ran through the planned matches.
-A soundbite aired with The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Leiona) about the opening match. Ricochet said they would enter All Out as the AEW Trios Champions. Kaun said Swerve and New Level aren’t ecven a real trios teaj. Liona yelled really loud.
-Prince Nana followed by The New Level and Swerve Strickland discussed the match. Creed asked Swerve if it’s true that he was with Leona and Kaun until Christian Cage paid them to beat him up, and then he had an arena of people throwing toilet paper at Ricochet until he got mad enough to stab him with scissors. Swerve said that did happen. Kofi said it’s part of the past, but they’re beating The Demand tonight. Kofi then asked if this is the same Bandido whose friends he hunted down and beat up in a Saloon and if it’s the same Brody King he bloodied up and choked with a chain. Austin asked Swerve if before they showed up if he had any friends in AEW. Swerve thought about it and couldn’t name anyone and looked uncomfortable. Then he heard his music and smiled and headed to the ring.
