AEW Dynamite
When you have Hangman’s back, he will have yours, even if that means reopening an old wound that’s still somewhat fresh. After coming to the aid of Samoa Joe and Powerhouse Hobbs last week against the Death Riders, the AEW World Champion promised The Opps he’d be there for them with Katsuyori Shibata out of action, just like they were there for him in his battles with the Death Riders. This rivalry has a new wrinkle, though, with Daniel Garcia aligning with Death Riders three weeks ago on Dynamite. It was Garcia who defeated Shibata at AEW Tailgate Brawl to take him out, making quick enemies of Joe and Hobbs. Can the Opps gain a measure of revenge? Will the Death Riders continue their run of violence? This huge trios match comes your way tonight!
:aew:
The 6 Year Anniversary of AEW Dynamite comes on the air with Excalibur welcoming us alongside Taz & Bryan Danielson before running down tonight’s card. The Mixed Tornado Tag match with Darby Allin & Kris Statlander vs. Wheeler Yuta & Marina Shafir will main event the show.
Earlier today:
The Young Bucks were outside the Hard Rock Casino, Nick Jackson’s favorite place in the world, as Matt has an idea for a grand entrance tonight. He left, while Nick took Brandon Cutler and hit the casino with his bag of money to the High Limits Slots room. We then cut back outside where Matt found a dejected Nick to tell him about the pyro, confetti, live tigers and alligators possibly coming down the ramp during their entrance when he grabbed the bag and there was no money left. Nick couldn’t make eye contact with his brother, as we cut to Matt & Nick currently in the ring, with the graphic reading The Broke Bucks and Account Balance $0.00 above it.
Kenny Omega & AEW Tag Team Champions Brodido (Brody King & ROH Champion Bandido) vs. Josh Alexander (w/Don Callis) & The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson)
The returning Omega got a ton of pyro, leaving Taz to wonder if that was what The Bucks were hoping for (no alligators or tigers, though). Callis joined commentary, who called Alexander a real Canadian who’s tough, unlike Omega. Both Canadians start, as Alexander avoided an early You Can’t Escape, Matt tagged in, but was immediately face planted by Omega. Fast tags by Brodido, as King squashed The Bucks with a senton, while Bandido connected with a springboard. Bandido dodged superkicks, as we got a series of Macarena spots, with The Bucks mocking Bandido, who got Omega to help take them out and did the dance as well. Omega hit a slingshot plancha on The Bucks, as Bandido, with help with King, connected on an assisted springboard moonsault on the pile. Back inside, King bodyslammed everyone in his path onto Alexander until Bandido switched it up and slammed King on his opponent.
Omega tagged in, but was caught off guard by The Bucks, who followed with an assisted slingshot senton, as Bandido ate a Cazadora/Cutter combo. Omega fought back with a double Kotaro Krusher on The Bucks, as Alexander was tossed to the floor. Omega wanted a dive, but was superkicked by The Bucks before take-off. Alexander flew in with his running cross body, while Nick connected on a Tornillo. Trifecta corner attack on Omega, as Alexander hit a spinning Torture Rack slam, as Nick flew off the top onto Brodido outside to take control into break.
We return to Omega making a comeback, suplexing Matt into Nick, who was hung in the Tree of Woe. Hot tag to King, who was a house of fire with chops and corner splashes aplenty. The Bucks avoided one, but missed the Bandido blind tag. King mowed through Matt with a sliding lariat, while Alexander caught Bandido with a slam on the apron. The Bucks ramped up their offense with a running PK on the apron and tried the Tornillo again, only this time, Omega cut them off and took out the pile with a Terminator Dive. Omega went after Callis, who ran for his life, while back inside, Bandido wanted the 21-Plex, but Nick landed on his feet, backflipping Bandido into Alexander’s clutches. King & Omega returned to help Bandido and we got a Triple Tombstone. Alexander hit German Suplexes on everyone until Omega was ping-ponged with a Superkick Party. An assisted Neutralizer from Alexander & Matt, but King broke the count.
The Bucks wanted a TK Driver on Omega, but King popped Nick in mid-air with a hard forearm. Snap Dragons dished out by Omega to everyone in his path before cracking Alexander with a V-Trigger and Poison-Rana. High stack powerbomb led to a V-Trigger flush, as King took out The Bucks with a dive, as Omega hit a third V-Trigger, Bandido followed with a 21-Plex and Omega put Alexander away with a One-Winged Angel to win it.
Winners: Kenny Omega & AEW Tag Team Champions Brodido (Brody King & ROH Champion Bandido)
After the match:
Brodido celebrated up the ramp with Omega staying in the ring, seemingly to talk to The Bucks, but was cut-off by an Alexander superkick. Alexander pounced on Omega, as The Bucks looked on, but didn’t help despite Alexander asking them to. Jurassic Express’ music hit, as Jack Perry & Luchasaurus slowly walked out and stared down The Bucks (all while Alexander continued to beat up Omega in the corner). Perry laid out The Bucks with a Double DDT, as Luchasaurus dropped them with a Double Chokeslam. Alexander went after Perry, who fired off a pump knee, as Omega was there with Snap Dragon. Omega starting shoving Perry, telling him he didn’t forget when The Elite did a stretcher job on him last year. Perry shoved Omega out of the way and took out The Bucks with a dive, while he & Luchasaurus fought with them to the back.
In Ring:
Omega was left alone in the ring and a microphone saying he’s been here for 6 years, since day 1, seeing the highest of highs and lowest of lows. Many fans have been there with him since the beginning, if it’s your first show, that’s fine too, as he appreciates and values them all. They’ve even lost some along the way, but Omega is a better person because of everything that’s happened and looks forward to the future. Omega hit his Goodbye & Goodnight line before the lights cut out. When they came back on, a masked man was standing behind Omega and revealed to be the returning Andrade. Omega was laid out with a spinning underhook DDT, as Don Callis jumped in the ring, shook Andrade’s hand, presumably adding yet another soldier into The Family ranks.
Backstage:
Mark Briscoe is backstage and talked about how his life the last 6 months has been consumed by 3 letters, MJF. Briscoe said he learned MJF is all talk and said not to say his brother’s name and how words have consequences, something Briscoe proved at All Out. MJF told him he couldn’t win the big one, but he must’ve won one big enough since he sent MJF on sabbatical. MJF cost Briscoe from getting a TNT Title match and it was supposed to be Hologram, but now it’s Cassidy, he can be happy for his friends and want to see them succeed. Once Cassidy wins the TNT Title tonight, he’ll be there celebrating with him, while MJF is at home, picking tacks out of his ass.
TNT Championship
Kyle Fletcher (c)(w/Don Callis) vs. Orange Cassidy
We’re reminded this was originally supposed to be Hologram, who is on the shelf for an extended period following the attack by Fletcher on Collision. Cassidy worked for early pin attempts, until Fletcher didn’t budge on a sunset flip attempt. Cassidy avoided the brainbuster, tried a backslide and put on the brakes from a Fletcher leap frog attempt, as he just casually rolled to the floor. Cassidy tried putting his hands in his pockets, but was booted right the face. Cassidy recovered, suckered Fletcher into a chase and connected on a dive, but as both came back to the ring, Cassidy went up top and was cut off by a springing Fletcher boot, taking things to commercial.
Back from break, Cassidy started firing up during Fletcher’s kicks, tried for the pockets again, only to eat another thrust kick to the chops. Fletcher granted Cassidy’s wish and trapped the hands in the pockets, so he could put more boots to Cassidy. Fletcher wanted a lawn dart to the corner, but Cassidy countered into an arm drag, sending Fletcher crashing. Little kicks from Cassidy start ramping up in intensity, but Fletcher dodged a PK. Cassidy floated over in the corner and sent Fletcher from buckle to buckle before connecting on a slingshot DDT. Quickly up top, Cassidy wanted a cross body, but Fletcher caught him into a Michinoku Driver for two. Fletcher wanted his Brainbuster, but Cassidy countered into the Stundog Millionaire. Cassidy wanted another, only Fletcher countered into a Snap Dragon. Liger Bomb countered into a Cassidy DDT, who followed with a second spinning DDT that spiked Fletcher for two of his own.
Cassidy wanted an Orange Punch, but Fletcher spun out. They trade Powerbomb/Beach Break attempts that’s changed to pin attempts, until Fletcher planted Cassidy with a spinning Tombstone for a close near fall. Running corner boot caught Cassidy, as Fletcher wanted a Brainbuster, but Cassidy got an inside cradle for two. Both trade thrust kicks, as they fight up the ropes. Fletcher crashed, as he took the ref, while Cassidy was distracted by Callis. Who we thought was “Hologram” ran out and seemed to chase off Callis, until he crotched Cassidy. Fletcher delivered his Top Rope Brainbuster and got the pin.
Winner: Kyle Fletcher (retains championship)
After the match:
Fletcher & “Hologram” put the boots to Cassidy, until Roderick Strong, Kyle Fletcher & Mark Briscoe ran out to make the save. Callis brought out the rest of the Family, as Kazuchika Okada, Konosuke Takeshita, Lance Archer, Rocky Romero, Hechicero, Josh Alexander & Andrade (I think that was everyone) all join Fletcher and “Hologram” who rips off his shirt as the lights start flickering and we’re told it’s El Clon, the evil Hologram, who they’ve been teasing the last month or so. It’s unfortunate that he debuts right after Hologram will be injured for an extended time.
Backstage:
Renee Paquette is backstage with Mercedes Mone saying in 16 days, she’ll be the longest TBS Champion of all time. Mone said Paquette isn’t stupid or dumb and how they should be celebrating her tonight, but also AEW Dynamite. Mone said Title Tuesday next week in Jacksonville, she wants to defend her TBS Title against someone she’s never wrestled. Paquette brings up the AEW Women’s Tag Titles announcement last week and Mone wonders who her tag partner will be? Mini-Mone comes into the shot, as Mone is disgusted that Harley Cameron walks in talking about the chemistry they have together. Mone said every time they team, Cameron loses and walks away. Mini-Mone said she’s clearly playing hard to get. We never learned who Mone would be defending her TBS Title against next week.
AEW World Champion Hangman Adam Page & AEW Trios Champions The Opps (Samoa Joe & Powerhouse Hobbs) vs. Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli & Daniel Garcia)
Joe was relentless after Castagnoli to start, going after the eyes, even having to be pulled back by Hobbs. Taz said Joe wants revenge for what Death Riders did to Katsuyori Shibata, as Joe was backed to the wrong corner, where Moxley tagged in, took the ref, allowing Garcia & Castagnoli to double team. Frequent tags from Death Riders, who keep pressure on Joe, isolating him in their corner. Joe hit a leg sweep on Moxley and running senton before tagging Page, who lit up Garcia with forearms, punches and slingshot dive. Back inside, Garcia avoided a pop-up powerbomb, traded big boots, which Page won that battle, until Hobbs tagged in, mowing everyone down in his path until Moxley went at the eyes, but didn’t matter, Hobbs steamrolled him with a lariat. Garcia tried to attack from behind, but Hobbs no sold and Garcia got “You F’d Up” chants from the crowd. They were right, as Hobbs ran through him, until Moxley tried a dive, but Hobbs caught and slammed Moxley repeatedly on the apron before rag dolling him to the floor.
Back from break, Hobbs & Castagnoli slugged it out, until Castagnoli powered Hobbs over with a gut-wrench suplex. Castagnoli broke the front face lock on Hobbs to pop Page with a right hand, but that delay allowed Hobbs to hit a snap powerslam and hot tag to Page, who seemed to steal the tag from Joe, not leaving him pleased. Garcia was planted with a Death Valley Driver, but Moxley tagged in and we get an intense face-off between the familiar rivals of Page & Moxley, who started trading shots. They exchange finisher attempts before Castagnoli got a blind tag and saved Moxley, who laid out Page with a piledriver. Castagnoli hit a charging uppercut, but Page kicked out. Hobbs ran in and laid out Castagnoli with a Spinebuster until Garcia pulled Hobbs to the floor with a front face lock. Joe sent Garcia crashing outside, until Moxley laid out Joe with a Paradigm Shift. Page ran in with a Dead Eye on Moxley, but turned into a pop-up uppercut by Castagnoli. Joe made the save, leading to Page to hit the Buckshot and pin on Castagnoli.
Winners: Hangman Adam Page, Samoa Joe & Claudio Castagnoli
After the match:
Page was celebrating, handing the Trios Title to Hobbs and shoved the title to Joe’s chest, as it fell to the ground. Page held his AEW World Title high, as Joe spun him around and got in Page’s face. Jerry Lynn and a bunch of security rush the ring to separate the two, as Joe yelled that Page has never beaten him. Joe threw a shot, as security quickly stepped between the two. Hobbs had to try to keep the peace, walking Joe to the back, as Page told all the security to get out.
Video Package:
Video package of JetSpeed & Willow Nightingale talking about their run-in with FTR & Stokely last week. Kevin Knight challenges either member of FTR to a match. Nightingale said she’ll be there ringside to have their back. Stokely said there’s no one he hates more than Nightingale and they have a surprise for her in due time. Since Knight wants to run his mouth, he can have his match, but won’t find out until Collision.

Backstage:
Renee Paquette is backstage with Hangman Adam Page, asking his thoughts on what just happened out there with Samoa Joe? Page said in 6 years, he’s never been so confused, as Joe had a bitch-fit for what, dropping his title while handing it to him? Page then realized it was about much more; it’s about Joe wanting a World Title match. While Page is grateful for The Opps helping counter the Death Riders at All In when he won the title, he’s fine giving him a Title match and suggests Wrestle Dream for that match to happen.
Timeless Toni Storm vs. Tay Melo
Very serious demeanor for Storm, who isn’t in her usual wrestling gear, with Taz saying she’s looking almost lost without her AEW Women’s Title. Melo tried a quick start, but Storm planted her with a spinning back breaker. They go to the corner, where Melo locks in an arm breaker while in the ropes, as Storm went outside, blocked a PK and planted her face first on the apron as things went to commercial.
Back from break, Melo hit a running boot in the corner, but went to the well once too many, as Storm exploded out with a face-buster into the double down. Slugfest ensues, both counter finisher attempts until Storm connects with a DDT. Melo battled back with boots to the corner, which was unpopular with the crowd, as she tried Tay-KO, but Storm spun out into a German Suplex. Sweet Cheek Music led to Storm Zero and the victory for Storm.
Winner: Timeless Toni Storm
After the match:
Storm took the mic and said at All Out, when the bell rang, she didn’t hear victory nor defeat, she heard nothing. Silence so deep, it completely gobbled her up. Storm stared at her that she was everything that she wasn’t, a glorious champion. When she left the ring, all the questions followed her into the dark, as she wondered who the bloody hell am I? Kris Statlander, she’s not finished with her and needs to know one on one. Name the time and the place, Storm will be…Storm didn’t finish her line, instead dropping the mic as they faded to black.
Video Package:
We’re told Eddie Kingston faces Dralistico this week on Collision (which starts an hour early this week) and go to a video package of Sammy Guevara saying Eddie Kingston’s momentum will come crashing to a halt, as they have a lot of history together. Kingston is with HOOK and told Dralistico he’s going to get beat up thanks to Guevara running his mouth.
Backstage:
Renee Paquette is backstage with Samoa Joe & Powerhouse Hobbs, asking about what happened with Hangman Adam Page. Joe says perhaps he’s been so preoccupied with Death Riders he forgot who he is and Page might’ve forgotten that, too. Page has never beaten Joe and no matter the day, he won’t be better than him. Joe accepts Page's offer for the title opportunity. We get an official match graphic and it’s on for WrestleDream on Oct 18.
G.O.A. (Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona) (w/ Ricochet) vs. Swirl (Blake Christian & Lee Johnson)
Ricochet is on commentary and talks about the conspiracy theory of getting screwed out of title matches recently, saying even referee Aubrey Edwards is in on it. Kaun & Liona take turns lighting up Johnson in the corner with chops, but Christian got a blind tag, as Kaun ate a series of kicks and handspring corkscrew kicks. Christian went for a third, but Kaun caught him with a fireman’s carry double knees taking things to picture-in-picture.
Back from break, Johnson made the hot tag and ran wild, sending Kaun crashing outside, laying him out with a somersault plancha. Liona tried to slow the momentum, but Christian flew in with a Tornillo. Kaun made the save, allowing Liona to steamroll and turn Christian inside out with a Pounce. Johnson was squashed with a corner cannonball by Kaun, as they put him away with Open the Gates for the win.
Winners: G.O.A.
After the match:
Ricochet left commentary and delivered a Spirit Gun on Johnson until The Hurt Syndicate’s music hit. Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin & MVP walk out, as MVP said at All Out, he embarrassed himself and owes an apology to every Hurt Syndicate fan, allowing a bald booty shaker and his backup dancers to beat MVP. Contemplating maybe he’s lost a step, but MVP knows he can still fight. He doesn’t want to wrestle or for three counts, he wants a No DQ Street Fight. Ricochet had to hold back Kaun and MVP said he’ll call Bandido out to throw his b*tch ass around again. MVP said he wants the fight next week, tossed the mic to Ricochet, who accepted the challenge.
Backstage:
Renee Paquette is backstage with Kris Statlander, who said 6 years of AEW and crossing paths with Toni Storm, but they’ve never wrestled one on one. If Storm wants the answers she’s looking for, she can have her match at Wrestle Dream. Harley Cameron bolts in, quickly hypes up Statlander and exits just as quickly.
Backstage:
Alicia Atout is backstage with Don Callis, Kazuchika Okada & Konosuke Takeshita. Callis said just when you think The Family is down and out, he adds two new members in El Clon & Andrade. Callis issues a challenge for next Tuesday to Brodido in Jacksonville to face Takeshita & Okada. Takeshita cut Callis off and wasn’t thrilled about teaming with Okada, who told them they’re teaming, which delighted Callis. Takeshita was less than enthused.
AEW Women’s Champion Kris Statlander & Darby Allin vs. Marina Shafir & Wheeler Yuta
(Wild brawl of a main event, that saw a unique use of thumbtacks, which is impressive considering we’re just a few weeks removed from the All Out match with tacks aplenty. It also wouldn’t be a Darby Allin match if he didn’t take at least a few insane bumps.)
Statlander & Allin cut off Yuta & Shafir in the crowd during their entrance, as Statlander chucked Yuta into the wall, while Shafir briefly locked Allin in a rear naked choke. Statlander helped Allin, as the ladies brawled to one side of the arena, where Shafir locked Statlander with a head scissors choke, but was dropped face first onto the barricade. Allin held Shafir & Yuta, as Statlander jumped off the retaining wall onto the pile. Spilling to ringside, Allin sat Yuta down on a chair, tried a plancha, but crashed and burned through the chair. The ladies brawl to the commentary table, where Shafir set Statlander up and lit her up with chops and kicks. Death Riders stood tall as things went to commercial.
Chairs were thrown into the ring during break, as Statlander had to fight back, but Shafir split the legs and got just enough of a 619 into a head scissors spike on the apron. Allin returned and immediately was planted with a German Suplex into the pile of chairs by Yuta. Shafir & Statlander fought atop the barricade, where Statlander got an eye poke and suplexed Shafir through the time keepers table. Back in the ring, Yuta was crotched in the corner, as Allin delivered a brutal superplex onto the chair pile for two. Both fought back up in the corner, where this time, Yuta delivered a Hangman’s Neckbreaker onto the apron. Yuta grabbed a bag from under the ring and dumped out tacks. Statlander cut Yuta off, but ate an Angle Slam for her efforts. Yuta looked at the tacks and wanted a suplex onto them, but Statlander reversed with one onto the chairs. Shafir applied a rear naked choke, but Statlander spun her around and planted Shafir bare feet first on the tacks. Yuta grabbed some powder, but Allin ducked and Shafir was blinded instead. Allin threw Yuta into Shafir and she locked her own tag partner in a choke. Statlander flew in with a 450 Splash on them both, while Allin delivered a Coffin Drop on Yuta to get the win.
Winners: Kris Statlander & Darby Allin
After the match: Timeless Toni Storm walked to the stage with an emotionless stare, as Statlander walks to her for a face-off. They both then smile at each other before the punches start flying. Security separates the two and takes them to the back, as Allin is left lighting up Yuta with his belt until PAC blindsides Allin. Wrapping the belt around Allin’s neck, Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli join, as Moxley said at Wrestle Dream, Allin has zero chance at doing what needs to be done to win. Never say die, relentless Darby Allin, Moxley doesn’t know how, but for the first time, Allin will say the words I Quit. PAC picked Allin up, got a running start and turned Allin inside out with a lariat for a parting shot.
End of show.
