Results by: Josh Boutwell of Wrestleview.com

Adam Cole makes his way to the ring alongside reDRagon and Cole says 2021 was a great year for them but 2022 is going to be even better. Cole says that he hasn’t been pinned since coming to AEW and he is undefeated in singles competition and “the boys are back together.” He calls reDRagon the “baddest team on God’s green earth.” He calls it a new era in AEW but The Young Bucks interrupt.

Kyle O’Reilly bitches about the Bucks interfering in their trios match two weeks ago and Matt Jackson says he needs to remind them that AEW is THEIR company and they are the longest reigning Tag Team Champions in AEW history. He says their New Year’s Resolution is to get their belts back and Fish says they have the same resolution. He says no team on the planet can stand between them and the titles and that includes the Bucks.

Cole says this friendly competition is exactly what they need and they are the best faction in AEW. Best Friends come out and Orange Cassidy attacks Cole!
