4. Cody Rhodes Becomes The First TNT Champion
Mike Tyson didn't factor into this grudge match all too much, except to intimidate a previously-ejected Jake Roberts when he attempted to return to the ring, carrying his snake bag. Otherwise, it was Lance Archer's sadistic fury vs. Cody Rhodes' guile.
In the end, Rhodes managed to overcome Archer's might, polishing off the "Murderhawk Monster" with concurrent Cross Rhodeses. The win makes Rhodes the first AEW TNT champion, the highest singles title he can win, since he's permanently out of the World title picture.
