There were 4 matches taped Wednesday night in Washington that didn’t make air on the debut episode of Dynamite. Those matches were as follows:

  • Darby Allin vs CIMA
  • The Best Friends (Chuck Taylor & Trent) & The Private Party (Isiah Kassidy & Marq Quen) vs. The Lucha Brothers (Pentagon Jr. & Rey Fenix), Angelico& Jack Evans
  • Allie & Britt Baker vs. Bea Priestley & Penelope Ford
  • SCU (Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky) vs. The Jurassic Express (Jungle Boy, Luchasaurus & Marko Stunt

Tony Khan mentioned during the post-event media scrum on Wednesday that plans were in the works to air the dark matches from that week.

“They will be aired and I think as we go on we’ll smooth it out and we’ll develop, that it’ll be a new franchise I actually think we can get out of the good wrestling from these tapings.”
