Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for May 22, 2024

The show starts with a special Mad Max Furiousa open.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

Trent Beretta and Roderick Strong beat Orange Cassidy and Will Ospreay after Wardlow shows up and attacks Ospreay from behind at the ramp as Ospreay takes out Matt Taven and Mike Bennett. After the match, Undisupted Kingdom (Roderick, Taven, Bennett, Wardlow) go on the attack, and they take out Ospreay with the AEW International Championship while Trent has Orange in a submission hold. Roderick Strong then hits Ospreay with End of Heartache.

Backstage, we hear from The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson). Nicholas announces that Darby Allin is not allowed into the building tonight after last week, and Matthew tells their personal security to keep an eye out. Sonjay Dutt shows up and says that Satnam Singh will destroy Bryan Danielson. Matthew says he wants Satnam not to beat him, but to hurt him, and Sonjay says he will break Danielson like a pencil. (The security guards, from left to right, are Vinny Massaro, "Benevolent" Jack Banning, Slice Boogie, Che Cabrera, Jordan Oasis and Dom Kubrick.)

The Bang Bang Gang ("Switchblade" Jay White, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn) head to the ring. Jay White says PAC is confused and wondering how he is burning in his spotlight, then he, Austin and Colten discuss how to pronounce PAC's name before Jay White states PAC made three mistakes. He says PAC stared The Bang Bang Gang down instead of running away, stuck his nose in their business and begged them to make him care and got what he asked for. PAC appears on the video screen and says this is what he wanted to see, and that he has wound them up. He then says three-on-one is not exactly fair, then Death Triangle (PAC, Penta el Zero Miedo, Rey Fenix) shows up. Death Triangle go on the attack, forcing The Bang Bang Gang to retreat before PAC challenges them for the United Trios Championships at Double or Nothing so he can say just how hard they are.

"The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho and Big Cass guest on commentary for the next match.

Katsuyori Shibata and Hook beat "The Outlaw" Bryan Keith by double submission in a Triple Threat Match to decide a #1 contender for the FTW Championship. After the match, Chris Jericho grabs the microphone and says that makes his job harder at Double or Nothing, then says he is proud of Hook and Shibata for picking things up from "The Jericho Vortex," then warns them that he is just getting started. He says he will see them at Double or Nothing and walk out as the winner, as he is not losing to anybody ever.

We see a video package chronicling the events leading up to Mercedes Moné vs. Willow Nightingale for the TBS Championship at Double or Nothing.

We see another commercial for the Superkick Party Reebok Pumps from Champ Sports.

We see a video package chronicling the events leading up to "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita vs. Jon Moxley in an IWGP World Heavyweight Championship Eliminator Match at Double or Nothing.

"The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita beats Matt Sydal. After the match, Takeshita continues to attack Matt Sydal, then Jon Moxley shows up, punches Takeshita out with the microphone and tells him he will see him at Double or Nothing.

Backstage, The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson) once again tells Darby Allin that he is banned from the building as they pass out fliers. They then meet Swerve Strickland before Swerve heads to the ring for the next match.

Swerve Strickland beats Nick Wayne. After the match, Swerve is attacked from behind by Killswitch as Christian Cage and Mama Wayne show up to check on Nick Wayne. Swerve gets the better of Killswitch, then chases Christian to the back and hits Killswitch with a House Call on the way. Backstage, Christian tries to flee the arena and leave in a white SUV, but his way is blocked by Prince Nana. Swerve catches up to Christian and pulls him out of the vehicle, then throws him into the production truck. Both men then fight on top of the white SUV, where Swerve hits Christian with a DDT onto the roof before Prince Nana hands Swerve a metal folding chair.

Malakai Black beats Kyle O'Reilly. After the match, the arena goes dark and the lights above the ring are blood red. The lights soon come back to normal, then Malakai Black is hit with a massive stream of blood. Adam Copeland then shows up on the video screen to taunt Malakai, telling him to be careful what he wishes for before laughing at him and telling him that he will see him soon.

We see a video package chronicling the events leading up to the Anarchy In The Arena match at Double or Nothing.

"Timeless" Toni Storm and Mariah May beat The Outcasts (Saraya and Harley Cameron). After the match, Luther is hit from behind with a metal folding chair by Serena Deeb, who goes on to lay out both Mariah and Toni before hitting Toni in the head with a high heeled shoe. She then sits on the chair over Toni and puts Toni in the Serenity Lock, and referees have to get Serena to break the hold. After she does, Serena takes her flag back.

Backstage, we hear from The Bang Bang Gang ("Switchblade" Jay White, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn). "Switchblade" Jay White says Death Triangle (PAC, Penta el Zero Miedo, Rey Fenix)wants their gold, and Colten Gunn tells Death Triangle they will have to earn it. Austin Gunn says they will not be hard to find.

"The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson beats Satnam Singh by disqualification after Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett attack Danielson as he has Satnam in the Lebell Lock. After the match, Lethal, Jarrett, Sonjay and Satnam are all eventually able to gang up on Danielson, then The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) show up and hand Sonjay an envelope full of money. They then take over and nearly hit Danielson with the EVP-Trigger, and as Danielson fights back, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada shows up. This distracts Danielson so that he is attacked from behind by Jack Perry. The Elite (Nicholas, Matthew, Okada, Perry) then gang up on Danielson before Darby Allin shows up at the arena - with Tony Khan in the driver's seat - carrying a flamethrower as The Elite are about to put him through a table near the ramp. Darby soon makes it to the stage and shoots fire out of the flamethrower, and Danielson ends up putting Nicholas Jackson through the table before standing tall with Darby to end the show.

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
