We return from the commercial break to the return of the pre-main event Mark Henry set-up routine, complete with “The World’s Strongest Man” wrapping up with his “it’s been enough talk, it’s time for tonight’s MAIN EVENT!” catchphrase.

After that wraps up, the theme for Magnus hits and out comes the CMLL star for the All-Star Scramble Qualifying match for a spot in the bout at AEW Revolution 2024 this Sunday night. The theme for his opponent hits next and out comes Matt Sydal.

Sydal tries to shake hands before the match, but Magnus kicks his hand away. The commentators explain it that CMLL can’t trust AEW or Americans after Claudio Castagnoli’s actions in the opener. Someone on commentary points out Claudio isn’t American. Ouch.

The bell sounds and these two begin to get after it. Sydal does well early on, showcasing his trademark high-flying style, but Magnus slows him down and begins taking over as we head into a mid-match commercial break, our last advertising time out of the evening.

When we return, we see Sydal springboarding off the ropes for a high spot attempt, but Magnus counters with Angels Wings for a close near fall attempt. Sydal takes over again after that and the crowd starts to come to life a bit in the background.

Sydal hits a big move and goes for the cover but only gets two. Sydal goes for a springboard spot again, but we see Magnus get out of the way in time. The two trade chops and strikes in the center of the ring. Sydal decks Magnus and then heads to the top-rope.

Magnus cuts Sydal off on the top and climbs up after him. He looks for a super-plex, but Sydal blocks it and knocks him off. He connects with a top-rope Meteora for a close two-count. Magnus levels Sydal and says it’s over in Spanish before heading to the top-rope. This time Sydal cuts him off.

The fans chant “Matt! Matt!” as he climbs up after Magnus. Magnus trips Sydal up on the ropes and then hits a corner-to-corner running double knees spot. He goes for the cover and gets the win. With the win, Magnus qualifies for the All-Star Scramble Match at AEW Revolution 2024. That’s how this week’s show goes off the air. Thanks for joining us!
