This was probably the most awaited match of the card. Both the men knew whoever wins, would be at the very top of the roster. Therefore, they put everything on the line.
The match started with chops, jabs, and punches. However, when Don Callis intervened, Omega found the time to dominate the match, considering the referee was distracted.

CM Punk vs Eddie Kingston
This was more of a fight than a wrestling match. Even before the match started, Kingston dropped Punk with a spinning back fist. However, when the match did begin, both pro-wrestlers took multiple shots at each other, especially punches.

Bryan Danielson vs Miro (AEW World Championship Tournament Finals)
This was a match of strength vs speed. While Miro is a much bigger man than Danielson, the latter has speed.
The match between them at AEW Full Gear began with Miro showing his dominance over Danielson. To retaliate, Danielson attacked Miro’s neck, his weak spot, but this did not keep the behemoth down.

MJF vs Darby Allin
MJF wanted to prove his claim that technical wrestling is the difference between him and Allin, but Allin was having none of it.
From the very beginning, both pro-wrestlers executed some of the biggest moves on each other. For example, Allin had MJF locked in the Figure Four, while MJF executed a piledriver on Allin.
