Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for May 12, 2021

Jon Moxley retains the IWGP United States Championship against Yugi Nagata. Nagata and Moxley bow to each other in a sign of respect after the match, then Moxley raises Nagata's hand.



Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews The Inner Circle. Oritz says they had The Pinnacle bloodied and bruised until MJF did what he did, and also mentions that Santana has been locked up after last week's match. Jake Hager tells The Pinnacle that they failed to get the job done, and that they want another match. Sammy Guevara says that they will not stop going after The Pinnacle as long as they are both in the same company, and demands a rematch or else they will turn their coronation into a funeral and put The Pinnacle in the grave.

"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes heads to the ring. He says that he has never not been proud to be an American as he brings up the subject of patriotism, and says that Anthony Ogogo has run down the States yet has a work visa and is afforded the same rights as anyone. He says that Ogogo did not come here to live "the England dream," and tells him that the dream lives in this industry. He also announces the upcoming birth of his daughter and wants to tell her that he did not have a defeatist attitude and fought back. Cody then announces that at Double or Nothing, the venue will be at full capacity when Ogogo wrestles not The American Nightmare, but "The American Dream" when he picks up the sword.



We see a vignette for SoCal Uncensored ("The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian) regarding their upcoming AEW World Tag Team Championship match against The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson).

The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) retain the AEW World Tag Team Championships against SoCal Uncensored ("The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian) after Matt Jackson hits Christopher Daniels in the eyes with cold spray before hitting him in the head with the bottle. As per pre-match stipulation, SoCal Uncensored must split up.



Backstage, Eddie Kingston and Jon Moxley trash The Elite's dressing room.

In footage from during the break, "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian hug in the ring.

Backstage, Dasha Gonzalez interviews Christian Cage. Christian says that nobody is denying that Taz was once a bad man, but Taz will not be stepping between those ropes. He says he has an open contract next week and tells him to send a member of Team Taz at him. He also says he will be in the Casino Battle Royal and win it, then Matt Sydal shows up and says he is in it with his mind on redemption before telling him he signed the open contract for next week.

PAC vs. Orange Cassidy ends in a double-count. During the match, Don Callis shows up and distracts both PAC and referee Aubrey Edwards, allowing Kenny Omega to get in the ring and hit PAC in the back with the AEW World Championship. This causes the match to end in a double count-out. After the match, Don Callis says that he and Kenny Omega have the night off, and Omega says they will be having a road trip until Tony Schiavone informs them that as per Tony Khan, there will be a World title match against both PAC and Cassidy at Double or Nothing. Kenny gets mad at Aubrey Edwards, then he and Don Callis leave.



Backstage, The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) and The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) find out that their dressing room has been trashed by Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston. Matt Jackson brags about how he and Nick Jackson split up SoCal Uncensored ("The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian), then mocks Brian Pillman Jr. as he addresses next week's match against The Varsity Blond Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr.) s. Matt then invites Moxley and Eddie to a superkick party at Double or Nothing.

Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews "Hangman" Adam Page and The Dark Order. The Dark Order offers to help Page get back to the top, while Page says it was bound to happen after it took three guys to beat him. He says that "The Machine" Brian Cage didn't beat him as much as Taz calling the shot, then says if it were Cage, he would not be satisfied with that win. He tells Cage to meet him in the ring alone and earn it.

The Pinnacle head to the ring. MJF says that he is the "Demo God" and the king of AEW after Blood and Guts, and that he will not be referred to as "the greatest of all time." He tells the fans to bow not just to him, but to The Pinnacle, and that the fans have them to thank for AEW being #1 on cable last week and breaking TV ratings records in Canada due to having "a Canadian hero" in Shawn Spears. MJF says that The Inner Circle is now down two men and is puzzled as to why they would want a rematch, then asks the fans if they want a rematch before telling them it is not going to happen. Tully Blanchard says he has been at the top many times in the past, and that The Pinnacle took everything The Inner Circle could dish out and made them surrender, putting them at the top of the world. Tully then gifts The Pinnacle with expensive watches, and says that The Pinnacle is on top of the world looking down on everyone else. Suddenly, a car horn is heard. Ortiz, Jake Hager and Sammy Guevara then shows up on a winemobile, and after MJF says that Chris Jericho and Santana are gone - the latter being gone after being put in jail for trying to stab him with a fork - Jericho pops out of the vehicle. Jericho asks for a rematch, and MJF refuses, which leads to Sammy Guevara spraying The Pinnacle with A Little Bit Of The Bubbly. An infuriated MJF then gives The Inner Circle a rematch in a Stadium Stampede match at Double or Nothing, and says that if The Inner Circle loses, they have to break up forever.





In footage from earlier today, Jim Ross interviews Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. Britt talks about the nose injury that Hikaru Shida gave her, and says the monster that Shida created is going to dethrone her unless she can kill her. She says that there will be a new champion at Double or Nothing, and says that while Hikaru Shida has been champion for a difficult year, she is the face and pulse of the women's division, which will live on its own when she becomes champion.



Thunder Rosa beats Jazmin Allure.



Next week: Red Velvet vs. Serena Deeb for the NWA Women's World Championship! The Varsity Blonds (Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr.) vs. The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) for the AEW World Tag Team Championship! Christian Cage vs. Matt Sydal! Anthony Ogogo vs. Austin Gunn!

In footage from earlier today, Tony Schiavone interviews Jade Cargill. Jade Cargill says she handles her own business and nobody else does, and while she is listening to offers, she is "that bitch."

We hear from Darby Allin, who says that he has no time to think about last week as he drives around his hometown, which reminds him of who he is and how far he has come, and despite how much he has changed, he still loves it. He says that despite his talk about glass ceilings, he asks what Miro has done since he came to AEW, and says that he does not buy what Miro is selling before stating he knows who he is and that Miro will not take the TNT Championship from him.

Miro beats Darby Allin with Game Over to become the AEW TNT Champion! During the match, Scorpio Sky and "All Ego" Ethan Page attack Sting during the commercial break. After the match, Lance Archer shows up with Jake "The Snake" Roberts holding him back, with Archer wanting a piece of Miro.
