Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for February 22, 2023

Orange Cassidy retains the AEW All-Atlantic Championship against Wheeler Yuta. After the match, Orange Cassidy helps Wheeler Yuta up for the Blackpool Combat Club, and Claudio Castagnoli comes back after having slapped . Wheeler Yuta walks away.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Evil Uno and "Hangman" Adam Page. Evil Uno tells Adam Page that he takes Page's refusal of their help as saying The Dark Order is not on his level. He then tells him not to get involved in his match, as it is time for The Dark Order to stand up for themselves. Evil Uno then says Jon Moxley will find out why he is called Evil Uno.

"Absolute" Ricky Starks heads to the ring. He says it is no secret that for the past few months, he has dealt with interference form The Jericho Appreciation Society, and it is clear that Chris Jericho does not want a rematch against him. Starks says he accepts that rematch will not happen and that he will move on from Chris Jericho, then pulls out an open contract for an open challenge for a match against him at Revolution and says somebody wants to be on the show and face him. Chris Jericho shows up and says Starks is trying to bait him into another match and that Starks is not done with him until he says so. He tells Starks that his win against him was the highlight of his career and will not happen again. He also says that their rematch will not happen because Starks is not on his level, then wishes Starks luck on the open challenge before "Pretty" Peter Avalon shows up to answer the open challenge. Jericho then hits Avalon with the Judas Effect. Jericho then gets in the ring, tells a fan to shut up, then says that if Starks wants him so badly when Revolution should have him, then he should sign the open contract and beat Starks again. Starks says he knows Jericho will bring out The Society to interfere again, then mentions that Jericho became AEW World Champion all of his own and doubts Jericho's ability to beat him all by himself. When Jericho confronts Starks for questioning his ability, Starks tells Jericho that he genuinely believes he can beat him. Jericho says he can beat Starks because he is Jericho as he takes the contract, and even says he would sign the contract and bar The Society from ringside right now. Jericho then says he does not have a pen, to which Starks responds "Damn...I do." He then pulls a pen out from his jacket pocket, then Jericho takes it, presses the button the top of it to dramatic effect, and signs the contract while adding the addendum. He then tells Starks to be careful what he wishes for, as nobody outsmarts "The Ocho." Starks then looks into the camera and smiles.

We see a video package for the Revolution Tag Team Battle Royal.

The Acclaimed ("Platinum" Max Caster and Anthony Bowens) beat The Firm (Big Bill and Lee Moriarty) despite The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) showing up to attack "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn.

Tony Schiavone interviews Christian Cage on the stage. Right after Christian appears, however, he is attacked from behind by "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry. Jungle Boy then produces two chairs from the back for a Con-Chair-To. He hesitates, but before he can do it, Christian hits him with a low bow and hits him with one of the chairs. Christian then rams the head of a downed Jungle Boy on the chair repeatedly, and referees have to check on Jungle Boy while telling Christian to back off.

Saraya beats Skye Blue with the P.T.O. After the match, Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. and Jamie Hayter run into the ring before Toni and Saraya can spray paint Skye Blue. As Toni Storm and Saraya try to run away, Ruby Soho shows up and tells Jamie Hayter she wants the AEW Women's World Championship.

"The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson heads to the ring. Danielson says he will do everything to beat MJF at Revolution for the AEW World Championship, then focuses on MJF saying that he hates him last week. He says that MJF tried to break the arm of a friends' arm, put a bounty on his head and hospitalized William Regal, and yet he is the man MJF hates. MJF says he knows who Danielson is and who he himself is, then says he has been stranded from anyone he has gotten close to, thrown away by people who loved him, and met a girl who convinced him that not all people are bad only to leave him. He says she left him because he is unlovable, and the only thing he can trust and gives him love is the "Triple B" and the only thing keeping him from grabbing a fistful of pills and calling it a day. MJF then says that instead, everyone looks up to Danielson, who he says has a family - which he will never have - that he takes for granted, and says he hates Danielson not because of his skill, but because he is still in his sport. He says that every time Danielson gets in the ring, it states that he considers wrestling more importantly than family, then calls it a spit in the face to everything he takes for granted. He then says that he is worse than Regal and still wanting the spotlight, then says he will give him that spotlight when he punishes him for trying to take the one thing he has left in his life as well as what he has taken for granted. MJF then prepares to address Danielson's two kids, and Danielson threatens to kick the shit out of MJF if he does it. MJF then tells Danielson's kids that he will "make Dada pay for all his selfishness" by ripping his arm out of his socket so he cannot play with them again. He says that for one hour straight, he will make sure their father will never be able to pick them up again as he punches him over and over before he gives them the gift of early onset CTE. Danielson then punches MJF and proceeds to attack him, and security has to break up the brawl. Other members of the backstage crew also have to jump in.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. and Jamie Hayter. Hayter says they are getting pissed because Saraya is getting too big for her britches for her liking and trying to ruin what they have created. She says that Ruby Soho may be worthy of a title shot, but she is ruining everything from the ground up. She then says that Ruby Soho is also worthy of a title shot and has proven herself as of late. Hayter then makes her match for the Women's World Championship at Revolution a Triple Threat Match so she can beat both Saraya and Ruby Soho.

Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal win the Revolution Tag Team Battle Royal after Jarrett last eliminates Trent Beretta to earn a shot at the AEW World Tag Team Championships at Revolution.

We hear from Malakai Black, who says that there is a problem within AEW that The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews, Julia Hart) needs to address so that voices can be heard. Brody King and Julia Hart show up, and Brody says they will bring a firestorm to AEW and leave the foundation of a cinder built to last. Buddy Matthews then shows up and says that this Friday, they will meet The Elite face-to-face regarding their status as Trios Champions.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Tony Khan, who lets Adam Cole make his announcement. Adam Cole says the day to tell more of his story has come, and next month, there will be a weekly, one-hour television series called "AEW: All Access" after Dynamite where you get to get a behind-the-scenes look at Dynamite. Adam Cole says he hopes to share his story about his return to AEW. He then announces that on the night All Access debuts, he will make his in-ring return. Cole says he has imagined this day coming, and now that it is close, he hopes to be the best Adam Cole he can be and he hopes the roster is ready.

We hear from Sonjay Dutt, Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal and Satnam Singh. As Sonjay Dutt celebrates, The Gunns show up and propose they take care of each others' business to make their tag team title match one-on-one.

Jon Moxley beats a bloody Evil Uno with a rear naked choke. After the match, Alex Reynolds and John Silver go after Moxley only for Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta to head them off, then "Hangman" Adam page runs in and beats up Moxley with barbed wire around his right hand. Page makes Moxley bleed in the process, and when he goes for the Buckshot Lariat, Moxley retreats.
