We then get a video recap of how Kenny Omega won the world title from MJF last week.
Tony Schiavone is in the ring to introduce Kenny Omega for his championship celebration. Before he can say anything, the Young Bucks come to the ring. Matt says they have been friends for 20 years and they are proud of Omega. He says Omega wearing the MJF belt peeves them, so they brought him a NEW title belt.
Omega says it has been so long since he held the title, he was not sure he could do it again. He says the difference maker was his friends, family, and fans believing in him. He says that there are fewer than 50 days until Wembley Stadium. He says he still has work to do, but with everyone's belief, you will see the best version of Kenny Omega.
This brings out Will Ospreay. Ospreay greets everyone and asks if he can have a one-on-one conversation with Omega. The Bucks exit, stage left. He says it is good for Omega to be the AEW Champion again. He says Omega needed to believe in himself, and last week, Omega didn’t give up once. He says The Cleaner is back.

He then says every single week, they will be showing everyone why they are here and makes a Dragon Ball Z reference. Before they can shake hands, Kevin Knight comes to the stage and makes his way to the ring.
Knight says he doesn’t want to break up their love fest, but he wants to talk to Omega alone. Omega says Ospreay can stay. Knight says he congratulates Omega, but he is owed a title shot. He says Omega is a wrestling god, but he is a non-believer, and he challenges Omega for a match at Redemption.
Omega says he needs to get something off his chest, and Knight is asking him to hold him to a promise MJF made. He says he won’t do that, but he may give Knight a shot because he’s a nice guy. He then says that Knight is someone special and has IT. He puts over Knight, and then says Knight is hungry. But that’s where it ended because he joined the Don Callis Family.
He says Don Callis helped him hold the title the first time. He then says that no one believed in that version of Kenny Omega. Omega says Knight doesn’t need a guy like Don, and he is saying what Speedball believes, what Ospreay believes, and what the fans believe. He then says MJF wasn’t a fraud because he wrestled every week and he did what he said he would do, but Knight is a fraud because he’s with Don Callis.
Omega says if they fight at Redemption, it needs to be Kevin Knight, not Don Callis’s bitch. Knight says Omega is wrong, and there is no goodness left in his heart, only Greatness. He nails Omega with a mic, and Ospreay nails Knight with a Hidden Blade. Darby Allin appears from nowhere and attacks Knight, and Brian Cage breaks it up.
