Kenny Omega: "You know I wish I could share your excitement. I wish I could share the excitement and the enthusiasm of, uh, these... 'wonderful' fans. [the crowd boos at Omega's clear sarcasm] But I gotta say Hangman I'm a little sad actually. I mean we were friends. We were partners. As a member of the elite we were like family. You see all of this? Everything here? This was meant for you, and if it wasn't for your insecurities, if it wasn't for your failures... [the fans boo loudly] Oh no, you talk about that cowboy spirit, right? [Omega turns his attention to the crowd] You guys love the cowboy spirit. [Omega turns back to 'Hangman' Adam Page] You said it best yourself, you fall off that horse you get right back up into that saddle, right? I wish the cameras could see how it really was Hangman. It was never you. It was always us that picked you up out of your sorrows, every single time, sat you back up on that horse and sent you back out there to give these people what they thought they wanted and that was 'cowboy shit'. And why did I do that? Why did I do that even after you walked away even after you turned us down when we invited you back? Call me crazy, but I did it because I saw a little bit of myself in you. How wrong I was. What a disappointment."

Adam Page: "You know you uh, you talk a lot about me choking, my failures, my insecurities, and maybe you're right yeah...But if I remember you once had another tag team partner who maybe you felt like you didn't measure up to either... [the crowd goes 'Ohhhhhhh!' See Note 1] But I look across the ring and I see you now: The 'Best Bout Machine', the wrestling God, the man who's been the AEW World Champion for almost a year now, and it might be fair to say you've surpassed him. And over the past few years you've told me a lot of lies; you told me I was wasn't good enough, you told me I couldn't beat you, you let me fall flat on my face but the biggest lie that you ever told me was last year at Full Gear in the Eliminator tournament when you beat me, you knelt over my body and you said 'Good job Hanger, I'm proud of you.' You weren't proud of me, you were afraid of me. [the crowd applauds] You didn't want me to feel the pain of loss like you had felt before. You didn't want it to light a fire under my ass for me to prove myself, to redeem myself, you didn't want it to make me become what you've become, what I will become this Saturday when I beat you and become the AEW World Champion!"

Kenny Omega: "No no no no no you've got it all wrong Hangman, you've got it all wrong. What I did I did out of necessity. What I did I did, because believe it or not I care about you Hangman, what I did I did because I wanted to be the guy standing in front of the table from you right now so you can realize your potential! Whether we can be friends ever again, will you ever team with me again, who knows, I don't know, but one thing's for sure is that I want to be able to shake your hand right here, right now one last time. Let's kill it at the pay-per-view man-to-man. [they shake hands] I'm proud of you. [Omega starts to leave the ring when all of a sudden the camera man standing behinds Adam Page hits Page with his camera. Page falls to the floor as the camera man reveals himself to be Omega's manager Don Callis in disguise. Omega laughs maniacally over the fallen and unconscious Page.] He never saw it coming!"

Don Callis: "You know Kenny, they say the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was to make the world forget he existed. For six weeks I've been hiding in my basement. [pointing to Page] Does this look like someone is ready to win the world title Kenny? [Page is bleeding from the forehead] Does this look like someone who's ready to win a world title Kenny? Sign it! Sign it!" [Omega rubs his finger on Page's bloody forehead and uses the blood to sign the contract]
