The 2022 Beach Break was the second annual Beach Break professional wrestling television special produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). The two-part event was broadcast as special episodes of AEW's weekly television programs, Wednesday Night Dynamite and Friday Night Rampage. It took place on January 26, 2022, at Wolstein Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Dynamite aired live on TBS while Rampage aired on tape delay on TNT on January 28. A Beach Break special was not held in 2023 but the show returned in July 2024.

In the main event of the Dynamite broadcast, Orange Cassidy defeated Adam Cole in a Lights Out match, which also saw the AEW debut of Danhausen. The opening bout was a ladder match for the AEW TNT Championship, in which interim champion Sammy Guevara defeated lineal champion Cody Rhodes to become the undisputed TNT Champion in what was Rhodes' final match in AEW. In the main event of the Rampage broadcast, Jurassic Express (Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus) defeated Private Party (Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy) to retain the AEW World Tag Team Championship.
