Jay Lethal made his AEW Dark: Elevation debut tonight and got a warm welcome from the Chicago fans. A 'let's go Lethal' chant helped Jay take the upper hand in the match as he dropped Storm with a swift dropkick.

Lethal paid homage to Ric Flair and went for a running attack. Trenton Storm, however, showed glimpses of his potential with a Thrust Kick and got a near fall.

Storm put the pressure on Lethal with a chin lock. Jay used the crowd's support to get to a vertical base before landing a knife-edge chop. Lethal delivered an epic sit-out wheelbarrow facebuster, which was just the setup for his finisher.

AEW Dark: Elevation Main Event: The Acclaimed & Chaos Project vs. Varsity Blonds, Dark Order's John Silver & Alex Reynolds (w/ Julia Hart)

The babyface alliance got a great reception ahead of the main event. Despite being heels, The Acclaimed were greeted with cheers as Max Caster went on to drop another great verse.

Alex Reynolds kicked both members of Chaos Project before tagging in John Silver. The Dark Order grounded Serpentico with double team moves before The Varsity Blonds followed suit by continuing with assisted attacks.

Serpentico reversed the powerbomb into a hurricanrana. Max Caster landed a cheap shot while Aubrey Edwards had her back turned.

Griff Garrison was in the heels' corner as Luther predictably used Serpentico as a weapon to deal some damage. Garrison gathered momentum by first sending Serpentico flying across the ring with a backdrop. He connected with a big boot and delivered splashes in the corner.

Serpentico blocked the suplex as Bowens came in to land a Thrust kick. Garrison reacted with a rolling elbow strike before tagging in John Silver. Johnny Hungy went right after Luther before focussing on Serpentico.

Silver took out all opponents with a series of kicks. He got a near fall on Serpentico with a high crossbody. Reynolds leaped over the ropes to take out three members of the opposition team near the ringside area.

Serpentico tried to steal one by rolling up Silver, who used his power to kick out. Silver came back with a kick to the neck, followed by the Spin Doctor finisher for the win.
