Undercard, bunch of multi man tags, whatever.
In the middle of the card, just past half way,
>IWGP WH Title match
>Sanada (c) vs Bryan Danielson
Sanada starts off strong, wily veteran BD endures and dominates the rest of the match
Babyface comeback rally at the end, but BCC interference comes into play and BD steals it
NEW IWGP WH CHAMPION: Bryan Danielson!
Fast forward through some other matches.
Obviously gotta have Kenny in there put on another banger with someone. Will again or too soon?
Kenny-Okada 5 needs its own PPV, this isn't the right moment. So Okada needs a 1v1 match.
They're gonna have to build up some Bullet Club shit fast to have some kind of Bullet Club rights match featuring Jay. Anyway.
Main event
>AEW World Title match
MJF (c) vs Shota Umino
Story coming in is that NJPW held a tournament or rumble or something, and by rookie fluke Shota won it.
Then it was originally gonna be held on the undercard, the IWGP HW match was the original main event, but on Dynamite MJF bitches at Tony Khan about he's the top star, he's the champ, he ought to be the main event on an AEW PPV, there's no way he'll settle for an undercard spot or payday. Threatens to show up on Smackdown and throw the belt in the bin. References Punk showng up in WWE and Tony not having the balls to do anything about it. Tony cucks and this underwhelming matchup becomes the main event.
Back to the PPV, MJF dominates. Thinks he's gonna win. Until...
...BCC interference.
NEW AEW WORLD CHAMPION: Shota Umino!
Shota seemingly has no clue what's going on, this was unsolicited. But they swarm him and basically force him to join, like they tried to with Takeshita, like JJ et al did wth Briscoe. Shota doesn't have the heart to say no, can't say no to Mox-sama.
