From Daytona Beach:

Pre-show: A 10 bell salute, with all the talent present, for Scott Hall, who passed away on Monday at 63. A complete video, including his AWA years and his 1st WCW run (1990-91), was shown. The crowd chanted, "Thank you, Scott!".

Despite being suspended for misconduct, Toxic Attraction's Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne accompanied team captain Mandy Rose to the ring, joined by Tiffany Stratton, Austin Theory, Grayson Waller, Sanga, and the Dirty Dawgs (NXT champ Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode). Stratton whined that her squash pin of Sarray was tossed out on Tuesday, and she's been ordered to give Sarray a rematch, all because she attacked Sarray before she reached the arena.

Rose introduced her "sponsor", who was Tiffany's "father", J. Farrington Stratton (Bruce Prichard under a ton of makeup). He claims he only wants what's best for his daughter, like any parent would. He paid the fines for Dolin & Jayne to take them off the suspended list, and would have Toxic Attraction team with Tiffany in an 8-woman tag, except that Tiffany has the rematch with Sarray. Instead, Smackdown women's champion Charlotte Flair will be the 4th member of the team against four opponents to be named. With Raquel Gonzalez laid low by a (worked) knee injury, thanks to Dolin & Jayne, the UWA title is up for grabs in a battle royal, so the ladies will compete twice.

Stephanie McMahon & Jack Hunter came out to clarify. The battle royal is for an "interim" champion, who will face Gonzalez at Superbrawl on April 23. However, if Team Stratton loses, Dolin & Jayne go back on the suspended list, as "our bookkeepers" found that the elder Stratton "greased a few palms".

Main show:

1. TNT title: Wardlow def. Scorpio Sky via DQ in 5:05 due to interference from---who else?----Max Friedman. MJF put on the Dynamite ring, but National champion Keith Lee, who faces Lance Archer later, made the save. Friedman, Shawn Spears, and American Top Team left Scorpio high & dry to eat a Big Bang Catastrophe.

2. Sarray squashed Tiffany Stratton in 2:11 with the Saito suplex. J. Farrington Stratton, dressed like a knockoff of Col. Robert Parker (Robert Fuller), was aghast at seeing his daughter lose.

3. Matt & Jeff Hardy reunited as a tag team recently, and returned to action in the UWA, beating the Acclaimed in 11:40. Jeff pinned Max Caster with the Swanton Bomb.

4. Battle royal for an interim UWA women's title: All 3 members of Toxic Attraction were eliminated early. The final five were Rhea Ripley, Deonna Purrazzo, Mercedes Martinez, Tasha Steelz, and Thunder Rosa, the new AEW champion. Martinez & Ripley renewed hostilities, and eliminated each other at the 32 minute mark. Rosa dumped Steelz at 33:56. Abruptly two masked women came down, and helped Purrazzo dump Rosa at 34:15.They didn't get far before Sting & Darby Allin showed up, and unmasked them as Rebel and Jamie Hayter, Britt Baker's aides, who were among the first to be eliminated. Head ref Mike Chioda waved off the elimination, and disqualified Purrazzo for interference. Rosa will face Gonzalez at Superbrawl.

4. NWA title: Matt Cardona def. JTG in 11:50 with Radio Silence.

5. UWA tag titles: The Street Profits def. the Viking Raiders in 22:54 to regain the titles. The end saw Angelo Dawkins counter the Viking Experience by cradling Ivar for the final 3. Babyface match.

6. Raw tag titles: RK-Bro vs. the Dirty Dawgs, the Mysterios, and Alpha Academy in an elimination match. Order of elimination:

1st fall: Dominik Mysterio pinned Dolph Ziggler at 17:04 with the frogsplash.
2nd fall: Otis pinned Rey after a Vader Bomb at 23:10.
3rd fall: Randy Orton pinned Otis with the RKO at 23:18 to retain.

7. National title: Keith Lee def. Lance Archer via Big Bang Catastrophe at 12:55. Team Taz's Ricky Starks & Powerhouse Hobbs, jealous of Lee, were banned from the arena after attacking Lee on Friday.

Backstage, Thunder Rosa rewarded Darby Allin with a kiss (she's married in real life), teasing a kayfabe relationship between the two. Darby seemed shocked, even more when Rosa proposes teaming with Darby & Sting vs. Britt Baker and Private Party on Champions Challenge next week. Sting accepts the offer.

Starks & Hobbs came out, and challenged Lee to find 3 partners to face them and the Acclaimed next week. Back came Jack Hunter, who just talked to the National champion. Lee has a match in the UWA title tournament next week vs. Trevor Murdoch, so the 8 man tag will be two weeks later (No Challenge on 4/2), vs. Lee, Swerve Strickland, and two partners yet to be named.

"Be careful what you wish for, Rick.", Jack says. "You're getting it."

8. Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, and Dark Angel (Alexa Bliss under the mask) def. Charlotte Flair & Toxic Attraction in 18:40. Flair walked out on her partners, realizing that Rose has, in fact, become a clone of hers, albeit with dark hair. The final sequence saw Angel hit Falling Darkness, then tag out to Morgan. Rose stirred, but walked right into ObLIVion. Tag to Ripley, who landed Riptide, and Angel & Morgan hit stereo topes on Dolin & Jayne. Belair finished it with the KOD.

9. WWE title: Brock Lesnar def. Austin Theory at 11:10 with the F-5 to retain.

Post-match, Brock cut a promo, and said that while Drew McIntyre gets the tournament winner at Superbrawl---and Drew's ready, now, of course---we'll revisit 2020 then, implying he'll win the tournament.
