One of the four scheduled matches for AEW Revolution 2025’s Zero Hour pre-show actually didn’t even happen, as Chris Jericho was scheduled to defend the ROH World Championship against Gravity, but The Learning Tree member had other plans for the segment.
Before the bell could really get the match underway, the full trio of The Learning Tree (Jericho, Big Bill, and Bryan Keith) went on the attack, beating down Gravity in front of his mother and sister (who were ringside watching the match).
Bandido came to the rescue of his younger brother, but wasn’t able to turn the tide. Instead, Jericho managed to rip the mask off of Gravity, which then changed the dynamic to Gravity’s family prioritizing covering his face, as Jericho walked off still having the mask in his possession.
Chris Jericho & Learning Tree attacked Gravity before their match. Bandido made the save but JERICHO JUST UNMASKED GRAVITY.
Their mother and sister present here crying in the ring…
HOLY CRAP, WHAT AN ANGLE JUST HAPPENED.

At one point in the match, Mansoor took a double chunk chocolate cookie out of Big Justice’s hand and threw it down. He was then forced to take a bite and flipped out, because he’s on a diet.

Big Justice got a measure of revenge on his own, too, by helping powerbomb Mansoor off the top rope.

Ultimately, with an assist from Harley Cameron offsetting Taya Valkyrie, the babyfaces were victorious. Then, a bunch of other names just got crammed into the segment, as The Murder Machines (Brian Cage and Lance Archer) then came out to stalk at ringside, but not to get involved in the action. Powerhouse Hobbs followed suit, just to give a spinebuster to Mason Madden. After that, Adam Devine and Tony Cavalero from The Righteous Gemstones gave a double-chokeslam to Mansoor.
