We see Lexy Nair interviewing Ricky Starks. She wants to question him regarding his confrontation with former Team Taz colleague Powerhouse Hobbs. Starks is interrupted early on by The Factory (QT Marshall, Aaron Solo & Nick Comoroto). Marshall offers Starks a place at the Factory so he can have people with him to protect him. Solo tries to convince Starks to join by reviewing their journey to All Elite Wrestling together. Starks is not interested and leaves the scene.

After the match, Avalon wants to launch an attack, but Takeshita knocks him out with the jumping knee.
Another interview by Lexy Nair with Orange Cassidy and Best Friends (Chuck Taylor & Trent) is recorded. According to Taylor, things aren’t going too well for the trio at the moment. That’s why they want to change something. Taylor says they work best as a trio and they lay claim to the AEW Trios Championship.
