AEW Dynamite

This week, ahead of meeting at REVOLUTION, MJF & Hangman Adam Page decide the stipulation for their World Title match. Jon Moxley battles El Clon. Plus, more!


:aew:

— This week's show starts off with straight-to-camera introductory messages from wrestlers scheduled for matches tonight. We then see a video package looking at the intense rivalry between FTR and The Young Bucks, including the attack on the parents of the tag-team stars.

AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Jon Moxley (c) vs. El Clon

Inside the arena, the theme for Jon Moxley hits and out comes the leader of The Death Riders. He slaps hands with the other members of the group and then heads through the crowd with Marina Shafir behind him. Renee Paquette gets her Megan Olivi on, talking as he finishes his entrance for our opening contest, and briefly interviewing Shafir.

After the champ settles inside the squared circle, his music dies down. The lights go down, turn red and the entrance tune for his opponent hits to bring out El Clon. A loud "Moxley! Moxley!" chant spreads at the bell. One fan then manages to get a loud "F**k 'em up, Moxley, f**k 'em up!" chant spreading around.

Moxley takes the early offensive lead, stopping to throw the double birds at El Clon in the same way the masked man does his signature hand gesture for his ring entrance. The fight spills out to the floor, where Moxley bounces El Clon off the announce desk and delivers some more punishment before bringing things back in the ring.

Mox goes for a cover, but only gets a two-count. He backs El Clon in the corner and chops the hell out of him. The lively crowd chants "One more time!" and Mox happily obliges. The crowd pops and then El Clon begins fighting back with multiple chops of his own. El Clon climbs up on Mox in the corner and chokes him with the tag rope.

Shortly after that, the show shifts gears and settles into a mid-match commercial break, with El Clon moving into a comfortable offensive lead. The show returns and we see Mox slowly but surely begin to shift the offensive momentum back in his favor. Soon thereafter, he secures the win. No title shot for El Clon, like every other "eliminator" bout.

Winner: Jon Moxley

— We see video footage of Swerve Strickland's heel turn and savage assault of Kenny Omega. We return live to Prince Nana talking trash to the commentary trio of Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness. He demands they get up and then introduces Swerve.

Out he comes to the commentary table where the fans cheer for him. He talks as if they hate him. "You don't like when it happens to your favorites, huh?" From the sounds of it, they do. He gets them to boo him a bit. He then takes issue with Omega calling someone else the most dangerous man in AEW.

Swerve then talks about beating down Omega putting him in position for a title shot. He looks bad on a time where he wasn't so nice, but recalls it being the most successful time of his career. He makes it clear he's coming for the title and he tells everyone else in AEW, they can get taken down, too. He'll make it clear he's the most dangerous man in AEW.

— Backstage, Brody King is talking direct-to-camera in the interview zone. He takes exception to Swerve taking issue with someone calling him the most dangerous man in AEW. He vows to beat down Mark Davis later tonight and prove he is exactly that, and why he deserves the next shot at the AEW title. We head to a commercial.

Orange Cassidy vs. Gabe Kidd

The bell rings, as we are underway. Kidd goes right after Cassidy, punching him and then stomping him. Kidd chops Cassidy and then slams his head on the top turnbuckle. Kidd then tosses Cassidy across the ring. Cassidy gets up, as Kidd nails him in the face again.

Cassidy goes with a backslide then an inside cradle for a two count. Cassidy sends Kidd’s head to the turnbuckle…Cassidy is nailed in the jaw by Kidd and falls to the mat and rolls to the floor. The show heads to a mid-match commercial break on that note.

The show returns from the break and Cassidy fires up on offense. He does the hands in the pockets routine, but Kidd spits in his face and blasts him. He settles back into the lead, culminating with a jumping pile driver for the win. Cassidy is attacked afterwards in two-on-one fashion until Darby Allin runs out for the save.

Winner: Gabe Kidd

— Backstage, Renee Paquette is with Thunder Rosa and Kris Statlander. We learn that Rosa will challenge Thekla for the women's title next week on the show in El Paso, TX. Statlander warns Rosa to be careful. She pays the warning no-mind. Paquette asks Statlander why she said that. Statlander no-sold her and walked off.

Mansoor vs. Kevin Knight

Inside the arena, Kevin "The Jet" Knight is introduced for our next match of the evening. Already in the ring is his opponent, Mansoor. The bell sounds to get things officially off-and-running. Both men lock up, as Mansoor pushes Knight.

Mansoor kicks Knight in the mid-section. Knight comes back with a big drop kick, sending Mansoor to the ramp. Mansoor comes back in the ring and gouges the eyes of Knight. Mansoor stomps on Knight in the corner. Knight fires back, but Mansoor comes back and drops Knight with a spine buster.

Mansoor goes to the top and comes down as Knight moves out of the way. Knight hits Mansoor with a big clothesline. Knight then DDT’s Mansoor and comes off the top with the UFO Splash, covering Mansoor for the win of this waste of a tv time match.

After the match, Knight grabs a mic and talks about later tonight with Hangman and MJF coming out for their stipulation. Knight says Hangman will wipe the floor with MJF. Knight says that he wants to be the first challenger for world title as Page defeats MJF. Knight says he is the future and the hear and now.

Winner: Kevin Knight

— The show heads to a commercial break after Kevin Knight's post-match in-ring promo. When the show returns, Tony Schiavone is in the ring. He introduces the two competitors for the world title match at AEW Revolution on March 15, as it's time for MJF and Hangman Page to announce the stipulation for their showdown.

Hangman Page is introduced first. He makes his way out to "Cowboy Sh*t!" chants. MJF is out next to a big pop and fans singing along with the tune of his music. He gets on the mic and tells the fans to quiet down when the champion is talking.

MJF says that last week Hangman was brave last week, that if he loses at Revolution he will never challenge for the world title again. MJF says Hangman is not a historian and he will be the second wrestler to never challenge for the world title again. MJF calls the fans stupid pot heads.

MJF says the fans will have stipulation in the match. MJF then says if you smoke dope you will go broke. MJF says he found out a fair way to decide. He then tosses him gum to the crowd. MJF says in his pocket is a quarter. If it lands on tails, it will be a Texas Death Match.

Hangman has a smirk on his face. If the quarter lands on heads, the match will be the greatest match stipulation of all time. MJF can do whatever he wants and if Hangman looks at a weapon, he will be disqualified. MJF asked Hangman if he is a cowboy or a coward.

The fans start a ‘cowboy sh–” chant. Hangman says he will do it, but before MJF flips the coin, does he understand what he is doing. Texas death changes him. Hangman asks MJF who would he be if he used glass to tear his body. What if he found barbed wire and tore his tongue out, if its Texas Death, MJF doesn’t stand a chance.

Hangman says he can beat him in any dogs— match. The fans start “dogs—” chant. Hangman says he wants to leave no doubt who the better man is and if he can’t beat a piece of s—like MJF he doesn’t deserve the title…Hangman tells MJF to flip the coin. MJF says he is feeling very lucky.

MJF flips the coin and tells Schiavone to call it. It will be MJF’s one way no disqualification match. MJF’s music hits. Hangman says to give him the quarter…MJF says no, he is out of this dump. MJF can’t leave as Bailey, Knight, King and Bandido stop him. MJF says they can use a different quarter.

Hangman asks MJF if he thinks he is a dumbs—. Schiavone says because the coin was rigged, Tony Khan says the match at Revolution will be a Texas Death Match. Hangman’s music hits, as MJF looks worried. The fans chant “You F— Up!” The show moves on.
