Marko Stunt was quick to note that he was the taller amongst the two men in the AEW Dark match before they locked up.

Dominguez and Stunt engaged in a show of power, and the best way to do it was a battle of shoulder tackles. The fans already chanted, 'this is awesome!' Stunt was proud of a scoop slam that sent Ariel outside.

Stunt, however, lost focus and got sent into the barricade. He got back with a chop and a kick to the midsection. Back in the ring, Stunt got a two-count from a roll-up.

Ariel responded with a dropkick and a kip-up. Then, he strutted around the ring, giving Stunt some time to recuperate.

Marko executed a delayed vertical suplex, and he hyped the crowd for the finishing sequences. However, he missed the running splash, and Ariel followed suit.

Stunt executed a guillotine elbow drop, followed by a big-time clothesline and a rope-assisted cutter for the win.

Result: Marko Stunt def. Ariel Dominguez on AEW Dark

Grade: B

Joey Janela was nowhere to be seen, and Sonny Kiss looked visibly upset before the match began.

Kiss, though, kicked off the match on the front foot with a series of leg-based moves. A diving crossbody got Sonny a two-count. Solow laid in the right hands to begin dominating the matchup.

Solow executed a snap suplex as QT Marshall watched on from ringside. Kiss reversed the sit-out facebuster with a back body drop, followed by a corkscrew elbow strike.

Kiss delivered a jawbreaker and swept Solow off his legs to land a standing moonsault press for a near fall. QT Marshall gave the stink eyes to Kiss, and Solow took advantage by executing the sit-out facebuster, aka the Pedigree.

Result: Aaron Solow def. Sonny Kiss on AEW Dark

Grade: C
