AEW All Out
Date: September 7, 2024
Location: NOW Arena - Hoffman Estates, Illinois, USA

10	Bryan Danielson (c) vs. Jack Perry	Career Threatening Match for the AEW World Championship If Danielson loses the title, he must retire.
11	Will Ospreay (c) vs. PAC	Match for the AEW International Championship
12	Mercedes Mone (c) vs. Hikaru Shida	Match for the AEW TBS Championship
13	Swerve Strickland vs. "Hangman" Adam Page	Steel Cage Match
14	MJF vs. Daniel Garcia	Singles Match
15	Willow Nightingale vs. Kris Statlander	Chicago Street Fight

Tiebreaks:
Which match among these 15 will go longest? The brutal, brilliant Swerve/Hangman went 31:22, even outlasting the Shingo anniversary match that went to a 30-minute TLD. 1TB to Jeff, Chris, Jimmy King, and Dubb.
Which will go shortest? Not the Young Lion match, but J5G vs. BC, which only lasted 7:51. No TBs for anyone.
Who will pin whom in Shingo Takagi's debut celebration match? (1 point for each) NOBODY! It was a draw! No TBs for anyone.
How will the result come in the AEW World Title match? (pinfall, submission, etc.) By pinfall after a Busaiku Knee. 1TB for Jacob Fox and Blaze.
How will the result come in the Steel Cage match? (pinfall, submission, etc.) By knockout after a chair shot to the head. Gimmicked chair, but still, it was LOUD as fuck. No TBs for anyone.
For TWO points: which event was I planning to include in this before I found out earlier today that the NJPW event would indeed be broadcast live? No one predicted H2O HustleMania? I guess you forgot that I have IWTV and could time the matches myself if necessary. No TBs for anyone. These tiebreaks were brutal. Everyone went for the more obvious choices but our expectations got subverted on the little details. Not, however, on the results...

SCORES TIME!

The Free-For-All

In a really high-scoring round, one of our few tiebreak points wins the day! @Canadian Dragon will challenge for the title at event #11! But who'll be the champion?

Are you any good at these shows just asking as if I do really well and your fifth. I somehow managed to win . Be pretty cool if we faced each other as were pretty evenly matched . @Canadian Dragon

I could give it a go but I don't want conflicts of interest

I'm not very good at it anyway
