The commentators then run down the lineup for Friday’s Rampage: New Year’s Smash show, the Worlds End 2023 pay-per-view on Saturday and the “Zero Hour” pre-show for the PPV this weekend. After that, we head to another quick commercial break.

When we return, we see the ref in the ring holding the ROH World Tag-Team title belt as “The Dapper Yapper” Justin Roberts begins the introductions for this championship contest. He then introduces the challenges and after a delay, with no music, out comes guys in black masks and attire coming through the crowd.

As they settle around the ring, the theme for MJF hits and out comes the AEW World Champion and one-half of the ROH World Tag-Team Champions. He settles in at the ringside area and then Samoa Joe’s theme hits and out comes his substitute tag-team partner in place of the injured Adam Cole, as well as his opponent for this Saturday’s AEW World title tilt.

Joe’s music plays but no one comes out. The music ends up cutting off. MJF looks around confused. We then see Samoa Joe laid out backstage clutching his knee and shouting in pain. MJF tells the ref he’s still doing this match. He heads into the ring by himself as fans chant his name.

The bell sounds and MJF, with a heavily taped up shoulder, goes to work on the first of the two masked men. He beats him down in the corner and then rag-dolls him into the opposing corner. MJF yells let’s see your face and goes after the mask of one of the guys, but the other guy comes in and helps stop that from happening. MJF throws one of them out to the floor.

MJF asks the fans who wants to see who this piece of sh*t is. He goes to take his mask off at ringside but a third masked man rolls from under the ring with a pipe and lays out MJF. They roll MJF back in the ring and take him out with his own Heatseeker move for the pin fall victory. We have new ROH World Tag-Team Champions.

The commentators hype this fact while saying we don’t know who they are. A total of four masked men stomp MJF out in the ring. Samoa Joe’s theme hits and he comes limping down to the ring with a chair. The four masked men run off. He limps over to MJF and helps him up. The Devil appears on the big screen and says “Pleasure doing business with you.”

Joe then attacks MJF from behind with a chair. The commentators point out the obvious, which is that Joe has been working with The Devil the whole time. Joe continues to beat MJF down and then hits his Muscle Buster finisher on him on MJF’s bad shoulder. He picks up MJF’s AEW World title and raises it as the fans boo. That’s how this week’s show goes off the air. Thanks for joining us!
