A Thrilling Night of Action at the Prudential Center: AEW Delivers
January 5, 2022, Newark, New Jersey - The Prudential Center played host to a packed and energetic crowd as All Elite Wrestling brought its brand of high-flying, hard-hitting action to the Garden State. And deliver they did.
The evening kicked off with a thrilling encounter between Adam Page and Bryan Danielson, both vying for the AEW World Championship.

In the end, it was Page who emerged victorious, his determination and ring savvy proving too much for the challenger.
The rapid-fire pace continued as Shawn Dean took on MJF in a singles match. This one was over before you could say "MJF's got game", with Dean securing the win in a mere 47 seconds. A dominant performance that left little doubt about who was the superior competitor.
Wardlow and Antonio Zambrano next took to the ring, with Wardlow showcasing his impressive power and strength to dispatch his opponent in just 1:23 minutes. This one was all about the big man's brute force, leaving Zambrano reeling and helpless against the onslaught.

In the end, it was Cargill's sheer athleticism and determination that earned her the win.
Malakai Black was next up, taking on Brian Pillman Jr. in a singles match. This one had all the hallmarks of a great undercard bout - intense, hard-hitting, and with a healthy dose of drama thrown in.
