A Tribute to PAC - Dynamite recap for September 30, 2026

In memoriam: "PAC" Benjamin Satterley, 1986 - 2026. Excalibur eulogizes PAC at the announce desk, while Tony Schiavone is in the ring to thank the fans for their support tonight. We then see backstage footage from after All Out. We hear from The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir). Jon Moxley says that Will Ospreay was the better man in their match and that Ospreay took everything he had, and says that when you realize you cannot win them all, all you can do is give your best every time. He says that there is nothing like being in the ring for the fan and that every day is a gift, and that Ospreay has earned nothing but more hard work. He says that there are two kinds of eulogies: what a guy did and what a guy was. He knows what kind of eulogy he wants and that nobody sees what Ospreay has like he can and what they have been gifted. Moxley says knows what kind of eulogy he wants and that nobody sees what Ospreay has like he can and what they have been gifted. He states that pro wrestling can be what they make it, as they have what it takes to really be great and do something with their gift. Everyone else follows Moxley, and PAC is the last to walk out of shot. PAC is then honored with a ten-bell salute as the AEW locker room is on the stage. The Death Riders' theme then plays, and a red light is focused on an empty metal folding chair as the camera focuses on Jon Moxley, who heads to the ring for the first match.
