Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 15, 2026

In backstage footage from earlier today, we hear from Daniel Garcia and Will Ospreay. They are training with Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta as Jon Moxley shows up and tells everyone to get ready. Claudio, Garcia and Yuta leave, then Moxley tells Ospreay that most of the work is done and his neck has healed. Moxley says that people make simple things so complicated, and that when the moment comes, they hesitate. He tells Ospreay that he has earned this, and tells him that there will be times where he will have to make some hard decisions. Moxley says this is not a hard decision, and when he has the moment, he will not hesitate; he will pull the trigger.

Adam Copeland and Christian Cage retain the AEW World Tag Team Championships against The Death Riders (Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia) after Yuta removes a top turn buckle only for Christian to kick Garcia in the groin behind referee Bryce Remsburg's back, which allows Christian to send Yuta upwards into a Spear by Copeland to win and retain. After the match, The Dogs (Clark Connors and David Finlay) and Claudio Castagnoli get in the ring and attack Copeland and Christian, then The Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) run towards the ring to fight Claudio and The Dogs off. "Switchblade" Jay White shows up late as David Finlay rears back with his shillelagh, taking the shillelagh away from Davis and scaring him out of the ring. Christian confronts Jay White as Switchblade has the shillelagh in his hands, and Jay White hands the shillelagh to Copeland. This leads to a truce between the tag champs and The Bang Bang Gang. Meanwhile, David Finlay demands his shillelagh back as he watches from the crowd.

We hear from Andrade el Idolo as he is on the beach. Andrade says that he is free from his past and ready to become an AEW World Champion.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Andrade el Idolo. Andrade says he will battle every member of The Don Callis Family, and if he has to take all their championships, he will do it, as he will be an AEW World Champion. Andrade then pulls out a red jewelry box with a Dynamite Diamond Ring in it, saying he got it from a good friend. When Renee asks if the good friend is Will Ospreay, Andrade says "How you know?"

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong). The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) soon show up and make it known they want the AEW World Trios Championships. As Kyle O'Reilly accepts the challenge, The Conglomeration are attacked from behind by The Lethal Twist (Jay Lethal, "Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian, "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson).

Andrade el Idolo beats Jake Doyle to earn a shot at Mark Davis and the AEW National Championship. After the match, Mark Davis shows up and confronts Andrade, but Andrade puts his Dynamite Diamond Ring on. Mark Davis steps back before Andrade can punch him with the ring.

Tony Schiavone introduces Kenny Omega into the ring for a championship celebration. Omega is soon joined by The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson), and Nick Jackson is carrying something in what looks like a light brown bag. Matt Jackson talks their and Omega's nearly 20-year friendship and how Omega won the big one all by himself and proved that he is still the best professional wrestler on the planet. Matt then admits that MJF's custom Burberry belt peeves him, and Nick pulls the original AEW World Championship with the black leather strap out of the light brown bag to hand to Omega. Omega says it has been over 1100 days since he last held the AEW World Championship, and admits that he was not sure if he would ever hold it again. He says that as much as he made a promise to himself, it took his friends, his family and his fans believing in him to keep him from giving up on himself. Omega says this was not supposed to happen, and yet, here we are with less than 50 days remaining until Wembley Stadium. He says that as much as he would like to say he is ready, there is still work to do. Omega says that the fans will see the best Kenny Omega that has ever been in AEW before Will Ospreay shows up and heads to the ring. Ospreay asks The Young Bucks if he could speak with Omega alone, which The Young Bucks allow before heading to the back. Ospreay says it is good to see Omega as AEW World Champion again. Ospreay admits he thought that Omega gave up on himself and knew that Omega had to believe in himself, and that when he wrestled MJF, he did not give up once. He says that it will heat up on the way to All In, and says that for ten years, Omega has been his hero and he has watched Omega wrestle around the world as Omega inspired him to be one of the best in the world. Ospreay says that when he thinks of AEW, he thinks of Omega, and that he has always wanted to be a fraction of what Omega is. He then says that he is locked in, and that the two of them will keep it going and show everyone why they are in the position they are in. Ospreay says that this is a dream come true of "Goku and Vegeta fighting it out," and at All In, they will show that AEW is where the best wrestle. Suddenly, "The Jet" Kevin Knight arrives as Omega and Ospreay are about to shake hands. Knight says that he and Omega have some talking to do, and tells Ospreay to leave. Ospreay is about to leave when Omega says Ospreay can stay, and Knight congratulates Omega on becoming AEW World Championship before stating he is still owed a World title shot. He says that "Maxwell Jacob Fraudman" is not here to give him that shot, but Omega is here and he is here to collect. Knight then asks what a god is to a non-believer, as he is ready to become a double champion, and challenges Omega for the AEW World Championship at Redemption. Omega notes that Knight is trying to hold him to a promise MJF made to him, and says that while he is not going to do that, he will give Knight a shot at the title anyway due to the potential that he saw in him. Omega says that he had "it" and had the undeniable factor" and "looked the part," and while Knight was hungry, that was where it ended, as Knight had to align himself with Don Callis. He says he would be a hypocrite if he told everyone here tonight that he did not believe in Callis' siren song and that Callis would lead him to the promised land, as he held the AEW World Championship because of him. He says that nobody believed in that version of him, and that his self-worth fell right down the toilet with Callis. Omega tells Knight he does not need Callis, and that when he believes in Knight, he says the same words that others have said about Knight. He tells Knight that he could have it all on his own with Callis, and while Knight can say what he will about MJF, MJF was not a fraud, as he still defended the title every week and was a man of his word. Omega then says the only fraud he sees is Knight. He says that Knight is not being himself, and that what he is saying is not coming from his heart, which he still believes has some good in it. Omega then says he wants "The Jet," not "Don Callis' lap dop," and he wants Knight to do it on his own. This leads to a "lap dog" chant, and Knight says that while Omega makes a good claim, there is no goodness - only greatness - left in his heart before he hits Omega with the microphone and deftly avoids a Hidden Blade from Ospreay only to get jumped by Darby Allin. "The Machine" Brian Cage shows up and attacks Darby before calling out the rest of The Don Callis Family. Ospreay and Omega are soon joined by Jon Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli, and The Don Callis Family backs off.

Backstage, we hear from "Jungle" Jack Perry, who says that he is starting his second chapter in AEW. He says that he was on the verge of breaking through to the next level in his first chapter, and on Collision, he wants a match with someone else who wants to break through like he does and show what the future of professional wrestling is all about.

Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) beat Aaron Solo and Nick Comoroto.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Don Callis and "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher. As Fletcher says he is ready to put Komander away tonight, Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) shows up and hands both Renee a Fletcher a wanted poster of Bandido, much to Fletcher and Callis' annoyance.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher retains the AEW International Championship against Komander. After the match, Fletcher tears at Komander's mask, then "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita runs in and brawls with Fletcher. Takeshita then picks up the AEW International Championship and declares that it is his before "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada suddenly shows up and hits Takeshita with the Rainmaker. Fletcher and Okada are about to fight over the International Championship before Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) shows up and takes them both out.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kenny Omega. Omega says there is no shortage of credible challengers and that he still has hope for "The Jet" Kevin Knight. Darby Allin shows up and tells Omega that Kevin Knight will not change overnight and that he must be physically humbled, and that he will take the TNT Championship from Knight and humble him. He tells Omega that he can either waste his time or he can beat it out of him, and Omega tells Darby he will leave it to him. Darby leaves, then Jon Moxley shows up and says that Darby is right and that some people are what they are and cannot pretend to be anything else even if they try.

Renee Paquette interviews The Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor) on the stage. Alex Windsor says that if there is anybody who knows anything about drinking and fighting, it is the people of Boston, Massachusetts. Jamie Hayter says they had a pretty good time, even though England let them down in the World Cup. Hayter tells the fans that The Brawling Birds will not let them down, and Windsor says they will beat anyone to prove they are the best women's tag team in AEW. Hayter then tells the fans "let's get pissed," and says the first round is on them as they leave with Renee.

Backstage, we hear from Chris Jericho, who says that Tommaso Ciampa left his beaten and battered at Beach Break, then says that they can go again at Redemption. He tells Ciampa to bring pain and that he will bring "The Painmaker." We then hear from Ciampa, who says that he is better than Jericho, and at Redemption, everyone will find out if The Painmaker is better than him. Ciampa accepts the challenge, but says he has one more night in his hometown, and on Collision, he wants Jericho to be watching as he makes an example of someone.

Darby Allin beats "The Machine" Brian Cage after tripping Cage on the ring steps for a Coffin Drop before hitting Cage with two more Coffin Drops back in the ring.

Backstage, we hear from "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada. Fletcher says that if Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) want to stick their noses in family business and take his title, he has no problem with that. Fletcher says he will be the greatest International Champion of all time, and if Bandido wants him, he wants Bandido at Redemption.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Don Callis and "The Jet" Kevin Knight. Callis says that Knight can handle whatever is on his plate, then says that Knight is too smart for Kenny Omega's mind games. He says that everything that Omega has gotten in life is because of him, and tells Knight to take care of Omega. Callis leaves, then "Speedball" Mike Bailey shows up and says that Knight's facade is not working, and tells him to take Omega's advice and know that everyone loves him enough that when he is ready to go back to who he really is, he is forgiven. Knight tells Speedball to let him be.

Mercedes Moné and The Divine Dominion (Megan Bayne and Lena Kross) beat Willow Nightingale, Maya World and Hyan in a trios match.

Tristan Angels is in the ring. He says that God has a strange sense of humor when he created men like Shiloh Hill, yet was so overcome with remorse that he created him as an apology. He then states that he has repossessed Shiloh's tooth so that nobody sees him as normal and everyone can see him as nothing more than "a creepy, hillbilly weirdo" who was never fit to stand across the ring from him. Tristan then says he will no longer allow Shiloh to lie to himself, then places the tooth on the ring steps and stomps on it. Shiloh shows up on the TitanTron and says that losing his teeth helped him find his mind.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for July 13, 2026

Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar head to the ring to start tonight's show. Five police officers show up to stand between the ramp and ringside in case Oba Femi shows up. Heyman says he has gotten the police involved because of Oba Femi, who he says turned down a guaranteed title match against either world champion because he is obsessed with Lesnar.He goes on to call Oba Femi "a stalker" and "the biggest dummy [he has] ever seen in his entire life," and while he is used to people being obsessed with Lesnar only to get hit and not be as obsessed, but now, Lesnar is now obsessed with Oba Femi. Heyman says that this scares him half to death and that Lesnar mentions it whenever he calls him, then says that he wants to protect his money, as that is what an advocate does, and has asked for a no-contact clause for the SummerSlam match. He then announces that he has went to a local judge and has gotten a restraining order on both Lesnar and Oba. He then asks Oba cannot come within 100 feet of Lesnar, and asks that Lesnar abide by his restraining order, for "this Beast is a law-abiding citizen." Oba Femi's entrance hits, and Oba shows up on the stage. The police officers get in the ring and stand in front of Heyman and Lesnar in a line. Oba says he is here for a fight, and demands an explanation for the police officers. Heyman tells Oba that he is in violation of a restraining order, and Heyman and Lesnar leave as an officer tries to arrest Oba. That officer gets decimated, as does the rest of the officers, then Oba wants to know what games Lesnar and Heyman are playing at and wants to know where "The Beast" is, saying he used to run the place but just runs away. He then tells Heyman that if he went for a title shot at SummerSlam, he and Lesnar would have cost him anyway. Oba says that at SummerSlam, there will be no more games, and Lesnar will not be able to run from him.

We see "Reigns vs. Rollins, Chapter 1," which focuses on Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins' time in The Shield (Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Reigns).

Tozawa asks Maxxine if they can talk, and Maxxine asks the rest of The Vision to leave the ring, which they do. Tozawa asks Maxxine what she is doing, as this is not like her, and says that Theory is all wrong for her. Maxxine says she still loves Alpha Academy, but they gave her a choice, and the crowd chants "You sold out!" Maxxine mentions Alpha Academy telling her that if she was going to be with Theory, she could not be with them, and as Maxxine says that Otis and Tozawa do not know Theory, Otis says that Theory is bad news. Otis says he has known Maxxine for a long time, and that he has to get something off his chest. Theory laughs and finds this funny, as does the rest of The Vision, and takes this as Otis confessing his feelings for Maxxine. Theory implies that Otis is ugly and says the fans cheer him because they are losers like him, then says that people like Otis do not end up with people like Maxxine and that Maxxine is with him now. Theory then mocks Otis' size as he tells Otis to stay away, and Otis tosses Theory into the ring only for a brawl to break out between The Vision and Alpha Academy. Otis soon gets the upper hand and squashes both Breakker and Theory in the corner, then clotheslines Breakker out of the ring.

Solo tells Jacob that he understands now, saying that he was lost and he left his family, and that he was being stupid. He says he always knew that blood is thicker than water, and that he is coming home to The Bloodline. Solo Sikoa then raises a finger in the air, and Jimmy and Jacob soon join him.

Jacob charges at Knight, and Knight sends him running after hitting him with the chair. LA Knight says he owes both Jimmy and Jacob, and tells them to get in the ring if they still want a piece. He then wants Jimmy and Jacob in this ring along with "Main Event" Jey Uso, as he realizes he does not have to do this by himself. Knight then challenges The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) and Jacob Fatu to a six-man tag match against him, Solo Sikoa and Royce Keys at SummerSlam.

Bayley then hands Lyra a microphone. Bayley says that they could be honest with each other and hopefully apologize, but Lyra says Bayley should be the one apologizing to her for holding her back for a year. It becomes obvious Lyra is not even wearing make-up. She says that Bayley stabs people in the back and that she has also been stabbed in the back, yet she does not make it her entire personality. Lyra says that she lied about everything she made her feel better, and tells her that she is a doormat. She says that she does not belong on the posters, that she is not a locker room leader, and that she is "the worst of the Four Horsewomen." Bayley says she knew this was a mistake, and that Lyra is not as special as she thinks she is.

As JD McDonagh confronts Danhausen, Je'Von Evans hits the OG Cutter on Dominik to eliminate him. Dragon Lee is eliminated following a counter into a roll-up by Je'Von Evans.

After the match, Penta meets Gable in the middle of the ring, and both men shake hands.

Roman Reigns arrives at the arena before the next commercial break.

General Manager Adam Pearce is in the ring to oversee the contract signing for Seth "Freakin'" Rollins vs. Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam. Reigns is introduced first, followed by Rollins. Rollins is not traditionally introduced, however; he shows up almost as soon as Reigns is seated and signs the contract as soon as he takes his place at the signing table. Rollins says that some things are certain in life: death, taxes and Rollins beating Reigns every single time. He then tells Reigns to sign on the dotted line and get it over with. Reigns says that he listened to what Rollins had to say last week and that Rollins proved he is "The Tribal Chief's #1 hater," which leads to a "He's a hater" chant. He then says that Rollins is sitting there laughing about it when it is the only thing he is number one at, as Rollins has everyone believing the both of them are at the same level, which could not be any further from the truth. Reigns says that at SummerSlam, he will beat Rollins and show what number one really looks like, then signs the contract. Rollins hands the contract to Pearce and owes Reigns a debt of gratitude for keeping the World Heavyweight Championship warm for him until SummerSlam, then says he will see Reigns the next time he decides to show up for work. As Rollins leaves, Reigns asks Rollins where he is going and asks Rollins what will happen if he beats him at SummerSlam. He asks Rollins if he is going to carry the World Heavyweight Championship for a couple of months and get hurt again, as that happens every time. Reigns says that some would say it is self-sabotage, as some men cannot handle the weight and the pressure of being the top guy. This causes Rollins to head back to the ring and confront Reigns, who pokes at him. Rollins dares Reigns to say what he has to say and not to hold back, and Reigns says he will say it because everyone thinks it. He says that Rollins is still number two because after all these years, he still needs a Money in the Bank briefcase to become champion. He also says that Rollins had to fake an injury just to use it, and says that if there is ever a time to be Rollins to be number one, it is now, as Paul "Triple H" Levesque is "running the joint." Reigns says that WWE gave Rollins "all [his] stuff" and Rollins is still number two, and that Rollins will always be number two while he will always be number one. Rollins asks Reigns "Is that all you've got?" and are dares Reigns to tell him how he will never be as good as he is, and that anything Reigns want to tell him, he has told himself for the last fifteen years. He says that they are not fighting the same fight and that he has had to look in the mirror and be proud of what he fights for. Rollins then says he is glad he is not Reigns before punching him in the face and attacking him. Reigns stirs as Rollins leaves the ring, and Rollins notices this and goes for The Stomp only for Reigns to get back up and hit the Superman Punch. Reigns goes for a powerbomb through the table, but Rollins hits Reigns in the head with a microphone, hits Reigns with a Pedigree, then The Stomp.

Bayley Humphrey beats Chantel Monroe. After the match, Booker T is impressed with their match as Bayley was able to work from the bottom as a babyface against Chantel, who showed aggressiveness as a heel. Chantel says she is trying to get back to a place where she can get her confidence back, and knew that Bayley would get that out of her.
