Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for January 21, 2026

Tony Schiavone is in the ring to introduce MJF to start tonight's show. MJF brags about wearing beautiful watches, custom shoes, diamond rings, Burberry shoes and scarves, arriving in private jets and limousine as well as having the best girlfriend and says that the AEW World Championship is proof of having all that. He also brags that the "Triple B" is worth more than all the money the fans have, then tells the fans to change the channel if anyone brags that they are better than MJF, because what is coming out of their mouth is also coming out of their asses. MJF states that "Hangman" Adam Page and Bandido are just the first of his victims and that 2026 is "the year of the Devil" and that nobody is on his level, then Brody King arrives. Schiavone hands the microphone to MJF, wishes him luck and leaves the ring before Brody King says that the only thing he can think of is all the way that he wants to hurt MJF and putting his fist through his chest and ripping out his spine since MJF attacked Bandido. He then says he will not do that because MJF is "just a bitch," which the fans soon chant, and states that if he puts his hands on him, he will not get a match MJF so he can choke the life out of him, beat him and take his title tonight. MJF backs up to the corner and says no, then says it is not because he is afraid of Brody, saying Brody is all bark and no bite, but because he has beaten nobody of worth to challenge him, and says this match will not happen until Brody beats elite-level talent. He also warns Brody that if he interrupts him again, they will have a problem. He pokes Brody in the chest once before realizing this is a mistake, and Brody barks at MJF as MJF leaves the ring in a hurry.

We see a video package of what has happened between Samoa Joe and "Hangman" Adam Page in the last week.

Backstage, MJF interviews "Hangman" Adam Page and JetSpeed ("The Jet" Kevin Knight and "Speedball" Mike Bailey). Hangman says tonight is a night for celebration and that they should come up with a team name. Kevin Knight comes up with "Jet Set Rodeo," but Hangman has to shoot down "Horsecock," saying it did not work out in the past. Hangman mentions his upcoming match with Katsuyori Shibata, then Speedball says that he and Knight will focus on their matches and do well. Hangman warns Knight that while Samoa Joe is tough, he has his strengths and he will win if he can outlast him. Knight then asks Hangman about Swerve Strickland, and Hangman says "It'll be a hell of a main event."

Samoa Joe beats "Speedball" Mike Bailey. During the match, Hook and Katsuyori Shibata show up and get involved throughout the match without getting caught. Joe gets the win with the Muscle Buster after Hook distracts referee Paul Turner while Shibata assists Joe in hitting Speedball with the Muscle Buster out of the corner.

The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia) beat The Don Callis Family (Hechicero, Lance Archer, Rocky "Azucar" Romero) by submission in a Trios Street Fight with a Dragonslayer from Garcia to Romero after Moxley curb stomps Romero.

We hear from Triangle of Madness (Julia Hart, Skye Blue, "The Toxic Spider" Thekla). Thekla says Kris Statlander gives everyone title shots, then mentions that she never gets one. Thekla says that she will give Statlander one week to enjoy her life before she gets her title shot. Skye Blue says that they have room for more, and Julia Hart says that she never had her TBS Championship rematch and that she wants Willow Nightingale.

Before the next match, Stokely Hathaway plugs his website (helpbigstoke.com) for help regarding his injuries before introducing FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler). Stokely Hathaway guests on commentary for the next match.

FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) beat Alec Price and Jordan Oliver (both of whom are now officially on the AEW roster).

Backstage, we hear from Kris Statlander and The Babes of Wrath (Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron). Statlander says that "The Toxic Spider" Thekla has no idea who she is dealing with, and while her body is made for destroying, her mind is sadistic. Willow says she has been waiting to beat Julia Hart again and gives Julia her rematch. Harley addresses Skye Blue, saying she will punch her in the face if she gets involved.

"The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander attacks Kenny Omega during his entrance before the next match as Don Callis guests on commentary.

Kenny Omega beats "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander after briefly chasing Don Callis out of the commentary table and into the crowd. After the match, Omega gives Don Callis credit for striking while the iron was hot and while he was less than 100%, then says he has not felt this good in years and that not one member of Callis' family can beat him where he is at right now. He tells Callis to either quit while he is ahead, or lick his wounds and come back when he is AEW World Champion.
