Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 1, 2026

In backstage footage from Forbidden Door, Renee Paquette interviews Will Ospreay and Alex Windsor. Ospreay talks about how he is excited to be at All In when Jon Moxley shows up. Moxley meets with Ospreay after Renee and Windsor leave, and Moxley tells Ospreay that if he wants to be "the real thing," he must live it. He says that AEW can be something great in the greatest sport in the world, and while the business is full of unsavory people, it is up to them to protect AEW and preserve the craft. He then gives Ospreay a Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marin Shafir) patch, saying that he has earned the right to ride with The Death Riders and that he is proud of him. Moxley leaves, then Kenny Omega shows up and says he is proud of Ospreay. Ospreay says that he knows that Omega is concerned about him, then tells Omega that he is not his father. MJF shows up, and Omega reminds MJF that he has him to deal with after Mark Briscoe if he survives. MJF tells Ospreay he will see him at Wembley Stadium, then leaves. Omega tells Ospreay they will always be friends and that what Ospreay has going on with The Death Riders does not affect their friendship, then tells Ospreay to take care of himself.



MJF retains the AEW World Championship against Mark Briscoe after countering a Jay Driller with a waterwheel slam followed by the Heatseeker. After the match, MJF hits Briscoe with the Dynamite Diamond Ring. MJF then forces medical staff out of the ring, but before Briscoe can get up so that MJF can hit him again, Kenny Omega shows up. MJF retreats. Omega reiterates to MJF that he will be knocking down his door and proposes that MJF has the energy to face him tonight. MJF says it is bad enough he had to come to California and wrestle Briscoe, and refuses to wrestle Omega again. He says that it is laughable that Omega wants another shot at his title after losing to him twice and having kicked out of the One Winged Angel, and says he will not face him at first before suddenly having a big idea. MJF says he will wrestle Omega for the title next week on one condition, and if he does not get an answer by next week, he will not get his shot. If MJF retains, Omega will never be able to become AEW World Championship ever again.





Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews MJF. MJF addresses Andrade el Idolo for putting his hands on him and says that payback is coming and it will hit like a ton of bricks, then lists off who he has beaten in AEW and says that Kenny Omega is 0-2 against him before proclaiming that he is the best in the world. He then says that Omega will not agree to his terms because he is "literally gutless." Will Ospreay shows up and tells MJF not to hurt himself "sucking [himself] off like that" before asking why MJF put up a stipulation. MJF says he is the champ and Ospreay is not, then tells Ospreay he will see him in Wembley Stadium.

Tony Schiavone interviews Andrade el Idolo on the stage. Andrade declares that he is done with The Don Callis Family and MJF and that he will become the AEW World Champion. He then asks "How you know?" before he is attacked from behind by Jake Doyle, Lance Archer and "The Machine" Brian Cage. Don Callis leads the charge as Kevin Knight also shows up, and Brian Cage hits Andrade with the Drill Claw. Callis then commands Andrade to be thrown out of the ring, as Knight has a match to win. Andrade is tossed out of the ring by Brian Cage.



We hear from Mercedes Moné, who boasts about becoming the first-ever two-time Women's Owen Hart winner and how she dominates everywhere she goes and proves that she, not dreams, wins championships. She then says that the AEW Women's World Championship is the last piece to what is already hers.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Jet" Kevin Knight retains the TNT Championship against Lio Rush. At the beginning of the match, Lio Rush shows up with a backpack containing a completely blackened Ring of Honor World Television Championship. It is announced that Collision will air tomorrow night at 8 PM Eastern/7 PM Central. After the match, Darby Allin shows up and wants a TNT Championship Match, and says that if Knight says no, what happened at Forbidden Door will keep happening. Callis takes the microphone from Knight and says Darby has been a great wrestler and champion, but he crossed the line from wrestler to criminal at Forbidden Door, and his family does not reward criminal behavior and that Darby will not get a match as long as he has something to say about it. Darby says that Knight has dug his grave as Callis says that Darby will not get a match and that Darby should be in a cell.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Tommaso Ciampa, who demands that Renee declare that he is better than Jericho. All of a sudden, Ciampa is whacked in the head with a garbage can by Jericho, who then tosses Ciampa into some chairs. When security gets involved out side of the arena in the loading bay, Ciampa jumps them and throws more things at Jericho while attacking security. He then tries to attack Jericho with a power drill before Jericho fights back. Security gets their hands on Ciampa, but Jericho dives on all of them from the back of a truck before even more security shows up and separates them.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kenny Omega, who is conversing with The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson). Matt has faith in Omega to beat MJF, but Nick is a little apprehensive. Omega says he has not made a decision yet and that this decision is important, and asks what is left for him if he cannot challenge for the AEW World Championship and what is in it for MJF.

Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay beat The Lethal Twist ("Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian and "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson).



In backstage footage from after Forbidden Door, Lexy Nair interviews Adam Copeland and Christian Cage. Christian wants to know why "Switchblade" Jay White, and Copeland says that Jay White owed him a favor and that they are even. Christian mentions that he had and still has a problem with Jay White before Jay White's injury.

The Bang Bang Gang ("Switchblade" Jay White, Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) heads to the ring. Jay White says he was out of action for 459 days and that things have changed since then, then says that The Bang Bang Gang are back together again and wants to know "who let The Dogs (Clark Connors, Gabe Kidd, David Finlay) out." Jay White mentions his history with David Finlay, then says that nothing changes the fact that Finlay is "a nepo baby bitch boy." He says that the stench of Finlay's arrogance has lingered for far too long and that he is here to clear the air, then says Sunday was just the beginning.



We hear from Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "The Captain" Shawn Dean, "Bad News and Tattoos" Carlie Bravo, "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty) backstage. Shane Taylor says that they run Collision, and Carlie Bravo challenges The Bang Bang Gang ("Switchblade" Jay White, Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) to a eight-man tag match at Collision.

Hikaru Shida beats Harley Cameron, Maika, Queen Aminata, Persephone and Kris Statlander in a Survival of the Fittest Match to win the vacant TBS Championship! Harley Cameron is eliminated by Persephone when Persephone takes advantage of Harley's showboating. Maika is eliminated by Hikaru Shida with a schoolkid pin after Shida uses referee Aubrey Edwards as a human shield. Statlander eliminates Persephone after Persephone counters Staturday Night Special with a roll-up only for Statlander to counter with a roll-up of her own. Statlander is eliminated by Shida by submission after Statlander gets to the ropes to escape an ankle lock only to be blasted in the face with the TBS Championship by an already-eliminated Persephone, which knocks Statlander out and allows Shida to win the match and become champion.



Kenny Omega heads to the ring when Will Ospreay stops him and asks Omega if he thinks this is a good idea, saying that he believes in Omega before asking Omega if he believes in himself. Omega says this is his Death Ground, and if he goes out, he goes out guns blazing. Omega then heads to the ring and talks about how he has been part of professional wrestling for more than half his life and giving the people everything that he has in the ring. He says he has won titles and set records that could never be broken again and has had a career that can be looked upon fondly, but there is a selfish part of him that knows that it is not enough and that there is a little bit more in the tank. Omega says that if everyone else can believe just one more time, then he knows he can be a champion everyone can be part of and stand on the greatest stage in Wembley Stadium and represent All Elite Wrestling against Will Ospreay. He says that the cost that MJF wants him to make is not too high, and mentions that MJF has anticipated the possibility that he is "the god of professional wrestling" that he has been known to be. Omega says that having one more chance to beat the brakes off MJF while he is still healthy puts a fire in him, and that he not only accepts MJF's challenge, he demands that MJF brings what is his. All of a sudden, Omega is attacked from behind by MJF, and Omega fights back until officials and security rush in to separate both men. MJF manages to get out of the ring as the show ends. (Some of the security guards are played by Dom Kubrick, Slade and McCallion of Delirium (both unmasked), and current United Wrestling Network World Champion Jordan Cruz.)
