It is revealed that Orange is barely cleared to compete, but cleared nevertheless.

We see video footage of Orange Cassidy's AEW International Championship defense at Revolution Pro last week.

He says that he is disappointed that he is not more involved with what is going on with Sting's final match, and that he will be exploring his options. He then knocks on a door, and The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson) answer. Ric Flair says that he wants a a word with them.

Tony Schiavone interviews Daniel Garcia in the ring. It is announced that Daniel Garcia will get his shot against Christian Cage for the TNT Championship at Revolution. Garcia says he was told that he was destined for great things, but admits that he had lost confidence in himself in the last few months. He says that three seconds was all he needed and he was able to beat Brody King in the Continental Classic. He says that every single time he went down, the fans brought him back up, and every time he danced, the fans danced with him, and he thanks the fans for always being there. Garcia says that if his match with Adam Copeland went longer, he would have made him tap out. He says they will meet again, and when they do, he will be TNT Champion. As he has a message for Christian Cage, The Patriarchy (Christian Cage, Killswitch, "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne, Shayna Wayne) shows up. Christian says Copeland will never have another opportunity at his title ever again, then calls what happened last week a by-product of being in the ring with Copeland. He admits that Garcia has been on a roll lately, but that as much as he would love to get in the ring with Garcia, he does not want to face him at Revolution, as he feels that he is not ready. Christian gives Garcia a hard time for sending the fans home happy and wanting to become a champion, then mentions Garcia had "a pretty dark childhood" before bringing up his parents, including his father David, who is dead. He goes on to call his father "garbage" and a "piece of crap" who was also a drunk, then says that instead of hurting Garcia, he wants to help Garcia realize his full potential, and instead of being his opponent, he wants to be his father. Garcia tells Christian to keep his mother out of his mouth and dares him to get in the ring so he can put him in the ground next to his father. Christian sics Nick Wayne on Garcia, but he falls victim to the Sharpshooter. When Christian sics Killswitch on Garcia, "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard shows up with a chair and hits Killswitch in the back.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Rob Van Dam, "Hangman" Adam Page and Hook. Adam Page says tonight is full of opportunites for everyone on their team and an opportunity to hurt Swerve Strickland.

"Timeless" Toni Storm beats Sydni Winnell with the Venus de Milo.

"The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo beats Madison Rayne with the ankle lock. After the match, "Timeless" Toni Storm runs into the ring to attack Deonna with her shoe. Mariah May also shows up, and she distracts Deonna after he takes out Toni. This allows Toni to put Deonna in a knee bar. Afterwards, Toni Storm smears lipstick all over her lips before making her way out.

We hear from Darby Allin, who says that when looking back on life, things are put in perspective. We then see some old photos of Sting with his sons, then says that family is the only thing that matters in the end. Sting says that in all his years as a professional wrestler, nobody has ever messed with his own flesh and blood until now, then mentions that his father passed away and how his father was like a hero to him. He says it makes him think about his own mortality and how he used to feel invincibility, then says that time catches up to everyone and that he is not invincible. He says that he will bring everything he has left in him to Revolution, and that The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson) have the fight of their lives on their hands.

Tony Schiavone interviews Wardlow in the ring. Wardlow tells Schiavone to get out of the ring before he knocks him down again, then says he is pissed and that people have changed his name in a way that he has heard in years. He says that he was "the next big thing," but he has been screwed over again and again. He says that he should have been champion a long time ago, but he has never had the opportunity at the world title and there are people who should be fired and thrown in jail for that. He says that he beat CM Punk's ass like nobody has in years and that is body is still falling apart from it, and that he has squashed MJF like nobody ever has in his career. Wardlow then addresses choking out and beating Samoa Joe before stating that championship belts and custom suits look better on him before declaring that he is the best in the world and the uncrowned king of AEW. He says it is time to eat like a king and that he is tired of eating scraps, and that there is nobody in the back who is better than him or is able to stop him, and if anyone wants to get in his way, it is no longer wrestling; it is war.

In backstage footage from last Friday featuring the Bang Bang Scissor Gang, "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn apologizes to Jay White for knocking him off the apron, then says he wants to go back to being a "Collision Cowboy" afer helping out with the 3:10 to Yuma. Jay White proposes that The Gunn Club (Billy, Austin and Colten Gunn) reunite for a match.

It is announce that Will Ospreay - who will be competing at All Out 2024 - will be on Dynamite next week.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews The Don Callis Family. Don Callis says Konosuke Takeshita's match with Will Ospreay will help the family out big time, as both men will still be part of the family after the match. He also says that Powerhouse Hobbs will hurt a lot of people in the upcoming "Meat Madness" match, and that he himself has his eye on Sammy Guevara.

Samoa Joe, Swerve Strickland and "The Machine" Brian Cage beat "Hangman" Adam Page, Rob Van Dam and Hook in a trios match with a Coaquina Clutch from Samoa Joe to Rob Van Dam. Near the end of the match, Swerve accidentally boots Joe in the head from the ring apron with a kick meant from Adam Page.
