AEW Dynamite Live Coverage - February 28th, 2024

:aew:

AEW Dynamite is LIVE as we are in the go home show for Revolution this Sunday night from Huntsville, AL. Taz, Excalibur and Tony Schiavone have the call of all the action tonight.

Here comes Hangman Adam Page on a crutch. The crutch is clutch if you forgot. He talks about the history of AEW and his prior run as AEW World Champion. He says he will not be able to compete at Revolution.

In comes Swerve Strickland with Prince Nana. Swerve says the last 6 months have been war between them. Swerve says that, no matter what, you can’t block destiny.

Here comes Samoa Joe. He mocks the word “destiny” as well as Page for the injury. He respects that Swerve and PAge are hungry. Joe does not care who is in the ring with him Sunday.

Swerve talks back to Joe. He mocks Joe’s past as a commentator. Page nails him with his crutch, obviously the injury has been a ruse. The 3 way match is obviously back on for Sunday.
