AEW Dynamite

On Friday night The Young Bucks renew a rivalry with The Death Triangle, but instead of the PAC/Rey Fenix pairing who lost their World Tag Team Title bid on April 14th or The Lucha Brothers with whom the brothers Jackson have had their share of wars, it will be the first-time ever pairing of PAC and Penta El Zero Miedo. They've united in Six-Man and Ten-Man tags, they've even been opponents in their pre-AEW careers, but June 4th will mark their first night as a duo, and what a bout for that experience!


:aew:

– The weekly signature video intro airs to start off this week's show and then we shoot inside Daily's Place as fireworks explode and Jim Ross welcomes us to the show. He introduces Tony Schiavone and Excalibur and tells us to get ready for a wild ride.

– From there, we head down to the ring where PAC and Penta El Zero Miedo make their way down to the ring as highlights are shown of The Young Bucks hitting Jon Moxley with three BTE's at Double Or Nothing. They say Mox is injured. They talk about The Young Bucks attacking Rey Fenix backstage but note they refuse to air it.

Non-Title Match: Young Bucks vs. PAC and Penta El Zero Miedo

Matt makes a blind tag and hits and Canadian Destroyer of his own.

All four men are on the apron now. Fear Factor has landed on the Young Bucks! Back in the ring, Penta trade blows. Nick thinks he’s pulled off Penta’s mask, but Penta came prepared. Penta delivers a Fear Factor again, and PAC makes a tag in to land his Black Arrow! Cover. Matt interrupts the count. Brandon Culter interferes in the which helps Nick Jackson pick up the pinfall victory.

Winners: Young Bucks

– Young Bucks continue to brutally beatdown Penta and PAC. Eddie Kingston runs out and evens the odds for Death Triangle. The Young Bucks and Brandon Cutler retreat to the ramp. We go to a break.

– We return from a commercial break to Tony Schiavone standing in the ring with a microphone. He mentions that we are two months away from the debut of the new AEW Rampage show on TBS. He then brings out his guest at this time, one of the commentators for the new show, Mark Henry.

"The World's Strongest Man" comes out and heads down to the ring. He tells Schiavone he is not here to fix AEW because AEW is not broken. He says he's here to turn the screws, which he says they often say on Busted Open Radio. Schiavone asks if Henry ever plans to return to the ring. Henry says he isn't saying yes for sure, but says he has a lot left in the tank.

As the fans cheer we hear "Excuse Me!" screeches coming from the back and out of the entrance tunnel comes Vickie Guerrero. She heads to the ring and tells Henry and Schiavone they are excused. She then introduces Andrade El Idolo. The former WWE Superstar makes his way down to the ring and thanks Vickie. He takes the mic and mentions how he used to say he is the face of Latinos. He says today, however, he is saying, he will be the new face of ALL ELITE WRESTLING.

– We go to another commercial break

– We return from the break to J.R. stammering his way through pronouncing the name of Andrade El Idolo, going to Excalibur for help. From there, the familiar sounds of Cody Rhodes' theme plays as he makes his way out accompanied by his partner for this tag-team bout, Lee Johnson.

Cody Rhodes & Lee Johnson vs. QT Marshall & Anthony Ogogo

Cody and Lee Johnson settle into the ring along with "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson as the commentators talk about some promotional charity efforts. Their music fades down and the theme for their opponents from The Factory -- QT Marshall and Anthony Ogogo -- begins playing. They come down to the ring as the commentators recap the Ogogo-Cody match from Double Or Nothing.

QT and Johnson kick things off for their respective teams as the bell sounds to get this one started. Excalibur talks about how Johnson is in the ring with his former trainer in Marshall. They put over Marshall as a good worker and he takes over. Johnson tags in Cody. Cody takes it to QT and then tags Johnson back in. Johnson comes in and goes to work on Marshall this time, including hitting a nice neck-breaker.

He uses the leg-scissors to take Marshall out to the floor. He heads out to follow up on that but walks into a big shot from Ogogo. Marshall brings Johnson back in and tags in Ogogo as Excalibur talks us into a mid-match, picture-in-picture commercial break as the action continues.

When we return from the break, we see Cody finally getting the hot tag from Johnson. "The American Nightmare" hits the ring like a man possessed and is taking it to QT, the legal man, with a vengeance. He hits a Disaster Kick on an unsuspecting Ogogo on the ring apron and then blasts Marshall with a tremendous power slam that elicits a "Cody! Cody!" chant from the fans.

He slaps on the Figure-4 on QT and bridges up and just as it looked like he was about to tap out, Ogogo takes out Johnson on the floor and breaks the pin up by executing a top-rope frog-splash on Cody. Marshall follows that up with a diamond cutter on Cody for a pin attempt. Johnson goes to break up the attempt but misses his timing and splashes on both guys. Ogogo knocks Johnson out of the ring and takes himself out in the process as well.

Aaron Solow, another member of The Factory, hits the ring to provide a distraction just as Cody was going for Cross Rhodes on Marshall. This allows Ogogo to blast an unprotected Cody across the jaw with a flush knockout punch that leads to the victory for The Factory duo.

Winners: QT Marshall & Anthony Ogogo

– The commentators introduce an in-depth video package that looks back on The Inner Circle's victory over The Pinnacle at Stadium Stampede 2 at this past Sunday night's Double Or Nothing pay-per-view.

From there, we return inside Daily's Place where "Judas" by Fozzy plays as "Le Champion" leads his gang to the ring with a Little Bit of the Bubbley. The music dies down and the fans continue singing the chorus as always.

Jericho introduces The Inner Circle as the Stadium Stampede 2 "Le Champions" and then tells everyone inside Daily's Place to look under their chairs for a free t-shirt to commemorate the win. He then wants everyone to give it up for the hero of the match -- Sammy Guevara.

The fans chant "Sammy! Sammy!" as "The Spanish God" finally speaks. He talks about doing a 630 splash to win the bout and brings up a memory about doing a 630 off the roof of his mom's house way back in the day. He says he's come a long way from then to using that move to keep his brothers together. They all hug.

Santana & Ortiz say winning was nice but that he'd prefer to leave The Pinnacle in a ditch somewhere. He says this Inner Circle and Pinnacle sh*t is far from over.

Jake Hager gets his turn on the mic now and he too says that Pinnacle doesn't get to say when this is over. He singles out Wardlow and tells him he's pulling his man-card first. He says Wardlow beat him in the ring but he's challenging him to a place he's never lost - an MMA fight right here on Dynamite in two weeks.

"The Demo God" wraps things up by talking about how close to MJF came to turning his lights out for good at Blood & Guts and says things aren't over yet between them. He says he is going to beat MJF and tells Pinnacle it isn't over. He tells them to remember this, The Inner Circle never forgives and they never forget. The Inner Circle all come together and flip off the camera again as "Judas" plays and Excalibur talks us into another commercial break.

– We return from the break to see The Best Friends -- Chuck and Trent talking as Orange Cassidy paces back-and-forth with his hands in his pockets. They talk about how close he came to beating the world champion. They say he was cheated. Cassidy himself closes by saying if Kenny Omega thinks this is over, it isn't.

– Now we shoot to Kenny Omega and Don Callis in a production truck as Alex Marvez comes in and approaches them, telling them what The Best Friends and Cassidy just said. They brush it off and talk about having evidence that they'll soon be showing. Omega talks about Jungle Boy and his title defense against him coming up. He says Jungle Boy is a fun guy to cheer for and he says he loves his music. He says he can hear it now and then he and Callis hum along to it.

– The theme of Jungle Boy plays as the winner of the Double Or Nothing Casino Battle Royale makes his way down to the ring as the fans hum along with the theme and highlights are shown of his victory at this past Sunday night's pay-per-view.
