Welcome to this week's edition of AEW Rampage results. The show featured four matches and multiple segments before Full Gear 2022.

Christian Cage, Luchasaurus, and Jungle Boy segment on AEW Rampage

Christian Cage started by talking about Jungle Boy challenging him and calling him out to the ring. Cage mocked Jack Perry by saying he was not very smart and reminded him about his loss against Captain Charisma.

Perry retorted by saying that Christian Cage and Luchasaurus have cost him everything, including his friendship with the giant. He then challenged Luchasaurus to a steel cage match at Full Gear.

Christian then took further shots at his former protégé by saying that Luchasaurus is the real pillar of the company. Captain Charisma accepted Jungle Boy's challenge and brought up his family members again.

Jungle Boy couldn't hold himself back and attacked Cage, but Luchasaurus blindsided him. He ripped apart his former partner's t-shirt as Christian Cage brought a steel chair to the ring.

Luchasaurus then chokeslammed Jungle Boy on the steel chair to send a message before Full Gear 2022.
