the statement itself is part of the ado. Just say the thing you made the video to say

Can someone explain what ado means then? I was under the impression ado was like a big commotion, as in "Much ado about nothing". When did the ado = delay meaning appear?

Ado isb actually a shortening of "to do".

So, at least originally, No further ado -> No further to do.
