Full Gear 2023 was an up-and-down show, starting slow but picking up big time down the stretch. The results were surprising along the way and set the top characters in the company at the top of the show.
MJF took down Jay White in the main event despite a supposed serious knee injury that almost left him unable to defend his gold. The Switchblade walked out with nothing but a solid (and controversial) match on his record.
Swerve Strickland and Hangman Adam Page stole the show in a bloody, brutal Texas Death Match. While The Cowboy visibly defeated The Mogul before the interference of Prince Nana, it was Swerve that walked out with the official victory.
Will Ospreay chose his destination for 2024. He officially signed with All Elite Wrestling, promising to start his AEW journey on the road to Revolution.
Other big results included Julia Hart and Toni Storm capturing the TBS and Women's Championships. Orange Cassidy defended his International Championship against his greatest rival Jon Moxley.
Kenny Omega and Chris Jericho successfully defeated The Young Bucks and took Matt and Nick Jackson's future AEW Tag Team Championships opportunity.
Eddie Kingston defeated Jay Lethal in an impressively dominant display to keep his ROH World Championship. Samoa Joe kept the ROH Tag Team Championships with MJF and earned a future AEW World Championship match.
It was a chaotic show that set some stars on a brighter path while slowing the momentum of other key talent. The following were the real winners and losers from Full Gear.
