Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for May 27, 2020

The show begins with The Inner Circle talking backstage. Chris Jericho says it may have been a tough week and their egos may be bruised, but they are having a pep rally to fire up, get back on top and find a way to recoup the money spent on all the shirts stating they won the Stadium Stampede that they bought. Santana reveals that thanks to a deal he made with a friend, they have way more than a whole truck's worth of shirts. Jericho wipes his brow in shock.

Before the next match, Matt Hardy says he was proud to go to war with The Elite at Double or Nothing. "Hangman" Adam Page leaves for a drink and Kenny Omega leaves with him, then Hardy says that he and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) will team up for the first time ever. The Young Bucks request that they team up with a different version of Matt, and after initially getting "Team Extreme" Matt, Matt Hardy turns back the clock even more.

Matt Hardy and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) beat "The Bad Boy" Joey Janela and Private Party (Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy). During the match, Quen inadvertently tweaks his knee during a tope suicida, effectively turn the match into a 3-on-2 handicap match. Matt Hardy and referee Rick Knox help Marq Quen to the back after the match, then The Butcher and The Blade attack The Young Bucks after one of the Bucks inadvertently superkicks The Blade on the outside during the match. Suddenly, a black pick-up truck speeds in, and The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) - now known as FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) - get in the ring and tease attacking The Young Bucks only to attack The Butcher and The Blade instead. The Young Bucks superkick The Butcher when he gets back in the ring, then the Bucks and FTR have a stand-off before FTR walk away.

Jon Moxley guests on commentary for the next match.

Brian Cage beats Lee Johnson in his Dynamite debut. At the start of the match, QT Marshall is seen being distracted by Allie in the stands. After the match, Taz tells Jon Moxley that it is great to see him and that he has respected what he has done in the business, and tells him that he will be dealing with something different - a machine - at Fyter Fest, and to bring the grit and heart that he is known for, as Brian Cage will put his head in his chest and rip his heart out. Taz then tells Moxley "Beat him if you can...survive if he lets you." Moxley is game for a fight after this.

Tony Schiavone interviews Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. - who is in a wheelchair with the words "Roll Model" on the back of the seat - on the stage. Britt Baker then goes over the third rule of being a role model: don't hurt the role model. She calls last week's "egregious, tandem assault" on her left her with a broken tibia as well as a conspiracy that goes far and beyond due to it being a 3-on-1 attack on her that had been - in her words - in the making for months, and says that she is close friends with some top TNT executives and that without her, there would be no women's division. She then says Kris Statlander being an alien is "a crock of shit," that Hikaru Shida broke her nose, brandishes a weapon and is a fraudulent champion, and that "The Native Beast" Nyla Rose is smart enough to guide herself away from her fragile leg. Reba then brings out a board providing evidence of "a web of evil centered on the brains of the operation, [referee] Aubrey Edwards," mentioning that Edwards was there every time she got injured. Baker then says that everyone has been put on notice, saying that everyone has tried to take her out, but the joke is on them as she will be back at All Out.

Backstage, Chris Jericho says The Inner Circle's pep rally will be one of the greatest spectacles in AEW history and that they will get back on track. Suddenly, Orange Cassidy walks in on the interview, looks around, and then walks out. Jericho takes exception to this and says he will see him later.

Hikaru Shida beats Christi Jaynes.

Tony Schiavone interviews "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes in the ring. Cody compares himself to Tom Brady, saying he was not first pick and yet he ran the score up and that when Tony Khan thinks of making AEW a merit-based company, he wants the best in the world. Cody admits that he wasn't even the third call, but he is the very first champion of the world's greatest network. Cody says his story is not based on nepotism or favoritism, as he grew up and got better while the whole world watched. He says that his mother taught him everything he knows about grit and that he will outperform anybody bell-to-bell and asks that he be judged by what he does next. Cody announces that he will stand in the ring every week and propose an open challenge, and asks that if the people can give AEW two hours of their time, he can give them the best in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, as this is where the fun begins.

"Superbad" Kip Sabian and Jimmy Havoc beat SoCal Uncensored (Frankie Kazarian and Scorpio Sky) after Penelope Ford grabs Kazarian's foot to stop the SCU-Later.

In footage from earlier today, MJF says he is perfection in the ring and on the microphone and the breakout star in AEW without having to come from elsewhere to get that handle. He also says that he has been undefeated for over a year, but he has still not received a title opportunity in the company does not like him. He then says that when that certain someone was holding a battle royal to see would face him for the AEW TNT Championship, he made sure that that certain person would get some good competition. MJF also states that Wardlow will also be in the battle royal, and when he and Wardlow are in the final two, Wardlow knows what to do. Wardlow says "But," MJF says "But nothing!" then says he was kidding and that they will have fun in the ring.

Jungle Boy last eliminates Orange Cassidy to win a battle royal and face "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes for the AEW TNT Championship. Orange Cassidy is attacked by Santana and Ortiz before he can get in the ring for the match, but he is able to enter the match near the end. Colt Cabana is given a flyer to join The Dark Order by somebody in the stands after he is eliminated. MJF and Wardlow are both eliminated by Orange Cassidy and Jungle Boy, who end up being the final two men in the match.

Next week: Jungle Boy vs. "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes for the AEW TNT Championship! Jimmy Havoc and "Superbad" Kip Sabian vs. Kenny Omega and "Hangman" Adam Page for the AEW World Tag Team Championships! Chris Jericho in action!

Vickie Guerrero shows up to kick off The Inner Circle's pep rally. Chris Jericho welcomes everyone to the pep rally, and admits that while it has been a rough time for The Inner Circle, they will rise again. The Inner Circle throws their shirts into the crowd, but a few of them get thrown back into the ring. Sammy Guevara says that while they did not win the Stadium Stampede, they participated, and that he has gotten The Inner Circle participation trophies. (Jericho's reads "King of Dad Jokes." Santana gives everyone else in The Inner Circle random things (including a pair of Timberlands for Jake Hager and a picture of Marc Anthony for Jericho). Jericho gives Guevara a scooter to replace his crutches and Ortiz a pair of headphones to help him hear after suffering from ringing ears after the Stadium Stampede match. Hager reads a poem, which ends with Hager threaten to beat up The Elite where they individually live. Guevara then asks Jericho what he truly wants, and Jericho says he wants Mike Tyson's head on a platter, as he has not forgotten what Tyson did to him on January 11, 2010 on Raw, and ever since the day Tyson turned traitor of him, he has dreamed of getting his hand on Tyson's head. Guevara says he couldn't get him that, but he did get him a cheese platter and "a little bit of the bubbly." Unfortunately, there is no cheese and no "bubbly," and when Jericho asks where it is, Tyson shows up with an entire entourage. Jericho tells Tyson that he has been dreaming of this moment for ten years, and Tyson said he knocked him out because he stole the championship. Jericho then gives Tyson one chance and once chance only to apologize for knocking him out before he does the same to him. Tyson rips his shirt off and flexes, then shoves him. This starts a brawl between The Inner Circle and the entourage, and the entire locker room runs to the ring to keep all hell from breaking loose. It takes Tyson's entire entourage and then some to hold Tyson back as Jericho is restrained in the ring.

Here are the top five moments from tonight's show!
