While the full list of participants wasn’t revealed, we saw some exciting moments and eliminations throughout the match.

The Dark Order emerged as the winners of the battle royal, securing their shot at the ROH World Tag Team Championship. The match received a rating of **, as these types of battle royals can be convoluted, but it was a quick and decent opener.

Nick Wayne and El Hijo del Vikingo emerged victorious, securing a win with their dynamic teamwork. The match received a rating of **1/2, as it delivered some exciting moments despite its relatively short duration.

Match #3: Hangman Page vs. Bryan Keith

Hangman Page took on Bryan Keith in a singles match. Both competitors displayed their hard-hitting styles, exchanging chops and impactful moves throughout the match.

Hangman Page ultimately emerged as the winner, hitting his signature move, the Buckshot, to secure the victory. The match received a rating of NR, indicating that it was not rated.

Match #4: Skye Blue & Willow Nightingale vs. Taya Valkyrie & Anna Jay

Skye Blue and Willow Nightingale teamed up to face Taya Valkyrie and Anna Jay in a tag team match. The match featured some back-and-forth action, with each team showcasing their skills in the ring.

Skye Blue and Willow Nightingale secured the win, with Blue delivering a Code Blue to Anna Jay for the pinfall victory. The match received a rating of **1/2, as it provided some entertaining moments but felt somewhat thrown together.

Overall, the go-home edition of AEW Rampage had its ups and downs. The tag team battle royal was a decent opener, and it was great to see Hangman Page in action. However, the show felt like a collection of matches for the sake of matches, with some odd pairings.

Despite the challenges faced by AEW due to the hurricane, travel, and Punk/Jack Perry situations, the company managed to put together a passable episode of Rampage. The show received a rating of 5.5/10.
