AEW All Out results, match grades: Moxley betrays Danielson, Hangman brutalizes Swerve

AEW went all out at All Out, and it led to one of the better PPVs in the company's history.

The blood feud between two of AEW's reached its boiling point (again) after Page set Strickland's childhood home on fire on Wednesday's "Dynamite." Now, Hangman has a physical victory to add to his mental victory over Swerve after their cage match brawl on Saturday night.

MJF and Daniel Garcia opened the show with a hot, physical feud that led to an MJF victory over Garcia. Garcia, though, got his revenge with a brutal top-rope piledriver to send MJF to the shelf.

Pac and Will Ospreay put on a clinic on Saturday, too, another feather in the cap of the "Aerial Assassin" and his countrymate, while the Blackpool Combat Club shockingly betrayed their leader Bryan Danielson following his victory.

USA TODAY Sports provided live updates, highlights, match results, grades and more from the PPV below.

"Hangman" Adam Page vs. Swerve Strickland

"Hangman" finally gets his win. Well, kind of.

The "unsanctioned" part of this makes it interesting. Hangman gets his first win in four tries vs. Strickland, but considering it doesn't officially count, Swerve still has one-up on his bitter rival.

This match was every bit as brutal as their prior encounters. It was, in some ways, even more brutal: The cinderblock, the needle, the finishing blow chair shot: It was all glorious violence, and it definitely wasn't for everyone.

The crowd was either stricken by awe or exhausted at the end of a long PPV, but they didn't seem entirely into it, if only for the big spots. Given how hot this feud has been, it's probably a good mix of both.

Page's descent into madness is complete with his win over Strickland. It's worth watching where his character goes from here, though a continued heel run is a welcome sight.

Winner: "Hangman" Adam Page

Finish: Page stabs Swerve in the mouth with a needle, then crushes his skull with a chair shot.

Grade: 4 stars

Bryan Danielson vs. Jack Perry

The story between Perry and Danielson was easy enough, but the problem with booking a Perry vs. Danielson match is that no one actually believed Perry would win.

Perry is a better worker than people give him credit for, and the Scapegoat shtick is a good direction for him, regardless of the formula that went into creating the character.

That said, this match was just kind of there. The heat that was expected for Perry in Chicago given the fallout between him and CM Punk was there for his entrance, but it didn't stick. Perry couldn't match the physicality of Danielson, which was the story of the match. It was good, but not great. Even a ref bum and the involvement of the Young Bucks couldn't get the crowd believing Perry would win, which is saying something about both Perry and Danielson.

The most notable part of the match is what came after: After Christian Cage seemed poised to cash in his contract for the AEW championship after Danielson's victory, before he was stopped by Jon Moxley and the rest of the Blackpool Combat Club. But after a quick celebration of Danielson, Moxley, Claudio and Pac turned on Danielson (Wheeler Yuta didn't seem to be in on it), leaving Danielson for, well, very nearly dead.

The Moxley angle is mysterious and hot, like a TV dinner. Hopefully AEW sticks the landing, especially now that Danielson is involved.

Winner: Bryan Danielson

Finish: Danielson wins via Busaiku knee

Grade: 4 stars

Mercedes Mone vs. Hikaru Shida

Mone was put in a difficult position on the card: The match after a ton of good stuff and before the double main event isn't an enviable spot to be in.

The microwaved feud of Shida and Mone didn't lead to much intrigue, especially after the Britt Baker and Mercedes Mone feud that, confusingly, is already done and over with. (By the way: There hasn't been a single mention of Baker or that All In match since.)

This was an OK bout though it didn't have the crowd. The stipulation of not having Kamille at ringside led to nothing, and the match itself was good but at times sluggish. Still, Shida is a top of the card talent with a worker's reputation, but it would be nice to see her pick up wins again sooner rather than later.

Winner: Mercedes Mone

Finish: Mone wins with the Mone Maker after Shida is distracted by nearly using a kendo stick

Grade: 3.75 stars

Kazuchika Okada vs. Orange Cassidy vs. Konosuke Takeshita vs. Mark Briscoe

When AEW says it's "where the best wrestle," it's not as much a slogan as it is a statement.

Okada: one of the greatest of all time. Takeshita: one of the best, brightest and young stars of this generation. Orange Cassidy: One of the best wrestling today. Mark Briscoe: One of the greatest tag team workers of all time, cementing himself as an excellent solo act, as well.

That's a recipe for greatness, so it's no surprise that the four-way, a match type which can sometimes be convoluted and hyper-choreographed, went off without a hitch.

Okada getting the definitive win rather than picking up the scraps from another wrestler's finish continues AEW's interesting and effective portrayal of the Japanese superstar. While some thought Okada's comedy side overshadows his abilities as one of the all-time greats, it's a refreshing and enjoyable look at a guy who's been at the top of the heap for a long, long time. He also is still an all-world worker when the lights are brightest, and this match was an example of that.

Winner: Kazuchika Okada

Finish: Okada hits Orange Cassidy with a Rainmaker for the pin

Grade: 4.25 stars

Willow Nightingale vs. Kris Statlander

The feud between Nightingale and Statlander has run hot and cold, and it felt frozen when the two faced off in a mixed tag match at All In. But the former friends turned enemies penned a memorable chapter in their feud in the Chicago Street Fight on Saturday.

The two had a hell of a hill to climb as it followed Ospreay vs. Pac, and it delivered on violence. They got the crowd with the tacks, dog collars and light tubes in the process.

Where the feud goes from here is anyone's guess, but for now, this was a great installment for two of AEW's best women, even with a surprising finish.

Winner: Kris Statlander

Finish: Statlander chokes out Nightingale with dog collar chain

Grade: 4.5 stars

Will Ospreay vs. Pac

Will Ospreay is a singular talent. Pac is one of the best workers on the planet. What you get when you mix them is pro-wrestling excellence.

That's why the long-awaited showdown between the two stars for the International championship met the hype and more. The Chicago crowd ate up everything of the match from the entrances to the near falls. All Ospreay does is deliver, and honestly, Pac, too.

Ospreay has a long way to go to reestablish the International title as the preeminent No. 2 belt in the company after the seemingly pointless hot-potato act with MJF, but there's no talent better suited to do it.

As for Pac: The inaugural All-Atlantic (remember that?) champ needs a singles strap around his waist sooner rather than later if he keeps this work up. The trios belts won't do him good, even if he is a great fit with the BCC.

Winner: Will Ospreay

Finish: Ospreay lands a Hidden Blade after a Stormbreaker for the pin

Grade: 5 stars

The Young Bucks vs. the Blackpool Combat Club

Imagine not liking the Young Bucks.

The Young Bucks might not be in the best title reign of their career, or even the top five title reigns of their career, but they can still work. They might save it for the PPV, but they still work as hard as anyone on the card. Pair them with equally excellent workers Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta, and you get excellence.

While this wasn't a major build feud (the match loses some steam because of it), the work the two teams did in the ring lived up to both teams' reputations. That should be enough.

Where the tag division goes from here is still a major question mark. The Bucks will need a feud worthy of losing the belts at some point, but it's unclear who that may be at the moment.

Winners: The Young Bucks

Finish: Matthew Jackson sneaks a pin on Wheeler Yuta

Grade: 4.25 stars

MJF vs. Daniel Garcia

Daniel Garcia is a star. He seldom has a bad match, has come into his own on the microphone and his character has come a long way.

To that end, it's genuinely surprising that AEW refuses to pull the trigger on a big Garcia victory. It might be another situation of wrong place, wrong time, with MJF coming off a loss to Will Ospreay at All In and Garcia's contract status still in question entering the fall.

This was an excellent match that got the crowd going early. Both guys worked hard to get the crowd, which ended up with Garcia losing but getting his revenge on MJF following the match.

Winner: MJF

Finish: MJF pins Garcia via cradle

Grade: 4 stars

Undisputed Kingdom vs. Top Flight vs. Beast Mortos and Shane Taylor Promotions

Speaking of teams stalled out, the Undisputed Kingdom is still just kind of wallowing while they wait for Adam Cole's return. The teased faction warfare from earlier in the year hasn't come to pass, which is disappointing for, well, every faction not named the Elite in the company waiting to do something.

This was a pretty standard match that didn't really mean much (especially with the hodgepodge matchup of Beast Mortos and STP).

At least Top Flight's new look is cool.

Winners: Undisputed Kingdom

Finish: Roderick Strong scores pin

Grade: 2.75 stars

Bang Bang Gang vs. Dark Order

This was a nothing happening match between a couple teams stalled out in the trios division at the moment. Not much else to say, but Bang Bang Gang needs to keep picking up wins while they wait for Jay White to return.

Winners: Bang Bang Gang

Finish: Juice Robinson pins Evil Uno

Grade: 2.75

Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara and Hologram vs. the Premier Athletes

Not much happening in this match, which felt like another bout to just get as many guys on the card as possible.

Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara as tag champs doesn't feel like a great fit, but they make it work for what's asked of them of ROH tag champs. Surprisingly, Hologram had an off night, with a few missed spots as the match came off the rails a bit.

Not much happening here. (Josh Woods deserves better.)

Winners: Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara and Hologram

Finish: Rhodes hits the Final Reckoning on Woods for the win.

Grade: 2.5 stars

The Acclaimed vs. the Iron Savages

The Acclaimed need to get hot again in a division that has almost no heat to it whatsoever. It feels like the pairing is just kind of aimless at the moment, but the same can be said about all of the tag division.

The Iron Savages (formerly Bear Country) are as good of a job team as you can get. They're big, believable and have a good look to them. That said, getting a win over them won't do much favors for the Acclaimed, who are too established to get any rub from an easy win like this.

This was a fine match to get the crowd going, but sticking the Acclaimed on the pre-show seems self-defeating at this point.

Winner: The Acclaimed

Finish: Bowens, Caster hit the Arrival and Mic Drop combo for the pinfall.

Grade: 3 stars
