On the floor, Lashley slams HOOK onto the hard part of the ring apron with authority, Ricochet hits a dive from the ring to the floor to take out Lashley, but then Samoa Joe hits an even more impactful dive from the ring to the floor that pops the crowd.

From there, the show shifts gears and heads into a mid-match commercial break as our high stakes main event of the evening continues. When the show returns, we see Joe and HOOK exchange chops in the ring. Lashley and Ricochet are still down on the floor.

Once the match wraps up, we see the rest of The Opps hit the ring to celebrate. Tony Schiavone is in the ring and says they will sign the contract tonight. Tony calls for the contract crew to come out. They are all dressed in costumes. Joe is handed the contract.

He grabs a mic and says he wants to ensure this is the safest environment for him to sign the contract. The rest of The Opps take out the crew. They grab one of the crew in a costume, thinking it’s Hangman Page. They pull the mask off and it is not. Joe signs the contract and tosses it.

Joe grabs a mic and says Hangman’s days are numbered and standing in front of you is the next AEW World Champion. It is now official. Tony calls for a toast and for The Opps to grab a bottle. What looks to be Tony in the ring, it’s Page dressed up as Tony, who is wearing the same mask as Tony Schiavone.

He takes out The Opps from behind. Security and referees come in to hold Page back as Joe is down on the mat, trying to get up. Security holds back Hangman. That’s how this week’s special ‘Fright Night’ installment of AEW Dynamite goes off the air. Thanks for joining us!
