Note: We realized we missed adding the final AEW Rampage results into yesterdays email. Sorry for this! We wanted to add it here before the Worlds End results.

The final AEW Rampage kicked off with Chris Jericho defeating Anthony Bowens in a chaotic match after interference from Bryan Keith and an accidental hit from Max Caster with the ROH World Title. Private Party retained their AEW Tag Team Championships against Leo Sparrow and Alec Price, but a post-match brawl with Top Flight and Lio Rush & Action Andretti erupted, requiring security to intervene.

Thunder Rosa defeated Leila Grey via submission in a competitive match, while HOOK overcame Nick Wayne despite interference from The Patriarchy. Katsuyori Shibata intervened with a 2x4 to chase off Christian Cage and Kip Sabian, allowing HOOK to secure the win with the Redrum submission.

The main event segment featured Jon Moxley calling out anyone with issues against him, sparking a massive brawl involving Top Flight, Orange Cassidy, Adam Page, and others. The Death Riders stood tall as Pac destroyed the lighting board with a steel pipe, and Moxley ended the final Rampage by shouting into the camera, “Take this off the air!”

AEW’s Worlds End was live from the Addition Financial Arena in Orlando, Florida. The night began with “The Rookie” Toni Storm defeating Leila Grey in the Zero Hour portion, continuing her winning streak. Jeff Jarrett secured a victory against QT Marshall with help from Jay Lethal, while The Murder Machines and Lio Rush & Action Andretti triumphed in an 8-man tag match, though Rush’s actions caused friction with his teammates. Will Ospreay and Kazuchika Okada advanced to the Continental Classic Finals after grueling semifinal matches, with Okada ultimately defeating Ospreay to win the tournament and the championship in a hard-fought finale. Kenny Omega returned to present the title to Okada, setting the stage for these two rivals to clash again.
