Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for October 27, 2021

CM Punk beats Bobby Fish despite Fish targeting his left leg during the match.

We hear from Malakai Black, who says that he made "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes' own family lose faith in him, divided the Nightmare Family, forced Cody to take measures he never took before and made the fans hate him. He then says "The house always wins."

MJF quickly beats Bryce Donovan. After the match, Shawn Spears tosses Donovan out of the ring, then MJF says Boston, Massachusetts is the "absolute shithole" he remembers it being last time and that they were lucky to see him in action. He says he would not do anything with any of the women in Boston, makes fun of everyone's mothers, then says Darby Allin he made a mistake when he said he was not worth of the AEW World title and threw the gauntlet down by saying he could not break Darby mentally. He then says Darby is scared of him and brags about knocking Sting out with the Dynamite Diamond Ring, then says that with Darby out of his hair, there is nothing stopping him from his destiny of becoming the future World Champion. Suddenly, Sting's entrance theme hits, but Sting doesn't show and MJF reveals it was a trick by him and Spears when he laughs, saying people from Massachusetts are "so dumb," before the arena lights go out. MJF laughs, but Spears says this is not him. We see then footage of Darby Allin drop kicking a guy in an MJF mask and putting him through a table before the words "Not Time To Break You Physically" show up. When the lights are back on, Sting attacks The Pinnacle from behind. As MJF retreats, he notices Darby Allin in a trench coat behind him, and runs away as Darby grabs a skateboard with thumbtacks on it and hits Wardlow and Shawn Spears with it. Darby then says to MJF "Full Gear."

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Rebel, Jamie Hayter and Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. When Britt finds out that she is in a Trick or Treat Match against Abadon that has no disqualifications and a title shot for Abadon if she wins in response to running out on a match with Abadon in the Chris Jericho Rock 'n Rager at Sea, Britt says she has some tricks of her own.

Sammy Guevara retains the AEW TNT Championship against "All Ego" Ethan Page with a jackknife pin. (Had Guevara lost, he would have had to leave The Inner Circle forever.) During the match, Tony Nese is seen watching from the front row. After the match, Ethan attacks Guevara from behind, and when Guevara fights back, Scorpio Sky runs into the ring and attacks Guevara until the rest of The Inner Circle runs in and chases Scorpio and Ethan away. Jericho calls out Scorpio and Ethan for ganging up on Guevara after the match, and says that while Scorpio has beaten his twice, the last person of prominence Ethan has beaten is himself in his hotel room. This starts a "Beat Your Meat!" chant in the crowd, then Jericho says there will be a ten-man tag match at Full Gear between The Inner Circle and team of Scorpio, Ethan and American Top Team, and that thanks to Tony Khan, it will be a Minneapolis Street Fight. He then tells Scorpio and Ethan to tell "that pumpkin-headed dipshit" to be there so The Inner Circle can see who they will make "MMA meatsicles" before paraphrasing "Sweet Emotion" when he says The Inner Circle will win.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Bryan Danielson and Eddie Kingston. Eddie tells he has to take a Zoloft every day so he doesn't have depression that turns into crushing anger that causes him to get locked up. After saying he is done talking and done listening, Eddie leaves, and Danielson says that this is the Eddie he wants to leave and that he and many others have gone through what he has gone through and has worked his way up. He says that Eddie has worked his ass off and is one of the hardest workers he has ever faced, but in the World Title Eliminator Tournament, he will beat him.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews The Lucha Bros. (Penta el Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix). Penta el Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix say that they know what FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) want and that they will put the AEW World Tag Team Titles on the line at Full Gear. Alex Abrahantes says that FTR does not know the sacrifices that The Lucha Bros. have made to become tag team champions, and for that, they will put the tag team titles on the line.

Hikaru Shida beats Serena Deeb after countering the Deeb-Tox into a sit-down pin to win her 50th match - becoming the first woman to do so in AEW history - and advance in the TBS Championship Tournament. After the match, Deeb hits Shida with a chop block before targeting Shida's left knee with a chair. She then locks in the Serenity Lock after hammering the left knee into the mat, and referees and security have to get Deeb to break the hold.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Lio Rush and Dante Martin. It is announced that Mike Sydal is injured and that the match between there will be a third match between Matt Sydal and Dante Martin. Lio Rush says he should have seen this coming from a Sydal Brother and that he will debut at the right place at the right time. He then says the third time will be the charm for Dante now that he will be in his corner and that Matt Sydal will be "the failed student."

Jon Moxley beats Preston "10" Vance to advance in the World Title Eliminator Tournament after tearing 10's mask and busting 10 open.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and Tully Blanchard. Wheeler says they have waited almost a year to get the AEW tag team titles back, and now, the titles are theirs. Tully says he and FTR have "hit the reset button" and that nobody knows what is coming down the pipe. Harwood says that come Full Gear, The Lucha Bros. (Penta el Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix) will fight for the tag team titles and their lives and FTR will go down as the greatest tag team of all time.

"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes heads to the ring. After the commercial break, Arn Anderson is there with him. Cody says he hears everyone and says that while he beat Malakai Black with a Tiger Driver '98, he considered hitting a different move for a brief moment and wonders what would have happened if he had hit that move. He then says he did not hit that move because it would have been too easy and would have been "the easy way out," and tells the fans that they can do whatever they want, but if they want to boo, they should "boo the true narrative." Cody says you can hate the man who signs the checks but you cannot hate the man who built the bank, then throws his shoes in the audience and tells them to put themselves in his shoes. After talking about the family that he has been blessed with, he says the easy way out is not the way and that he will not turn because he has always loved the fans, and if he "went Hollywood" on anyone, he apologizes to those who thought that he did. Cody then tells Arn Anderson that it is "a damn honor" to stand in the ring with him and that he was right. Suddenly, Andrade and Jose - the latter in a neck brace - show up. He says that the people do not like Cody and that he himself does not like the people, and that Cody made stupid choices including his neck tattoo and getting in his business. Andrade says that he can make Cody his "little bitch," then the lights go out. When they come back on, Malakai Black is in the ring. Malakai spits the black mist in Cody's face, then he, Andrade and Jose attack Arn Anderson and Cody Rhodes. PAC runs into the ring and takes out Malakai Black, then beats up Andrade, causing Andrade to retreat. PAC then mocks Malakai's sitting down in the middle of the ring before flipping him off.

Before the next match, members of both teams come out in costume, with The Super Elite coming out with a Ghostbusters theme (complete with a Ghostbusters-inspired entrance theme) and The Dark Order coming out in various costumes such as Bambi, Kratos, Brandon Cutler, and cowboys.

The Dark Order (Evil Uno, Stu Grayson, John Silver, Colt Cabana) beat The Super Elite (Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, Adam Cole, Kenny Omega) in an eight-man tag team match after the top half of The Dark Order's horse costume is low blowed and given the BTE-Trigger only to be revealed as Brandon Cutler with his mouth taped up, causing the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man to unmask and reveal themselves as "Hangman" Adam Page, who helps The Dark Order get the win.
