Maximum Carnage - Dynamite recap for January 14, 2026

Backstage, we hear from Samoa Joe, who calls "Hangman" Adam Page's journey to win back the AEW World Championship "foolishness." He states that he has put out a bounty, and now "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith has posted it. Bryan Keith mentions his last match with Hangman three years ago, then says that tonight is personal and that he is cashing in.

Darby Allin beats PAC by submission with the Scorpion Deathlock. During the match, referee Paul Turner gets squashed as Darby goes for a running back elbow to PAC only to take out Turner. Darby makes PAC tap to the Scorpion Deathlock, but Paul Turner is out. Wheeler Yuta shows up with a metal folding chair, but Darby Allin fends him off and wraps the chair around PAC's left foot before hitting the Coffin Drop on the chair. Darby then gets rid of the chair before putting PAC in the Scorpion Deathlock again. This time, referee Paul Turner comes to, and PAC taps, this time with the referee seeing it.

"Hangman" Adam Page beats "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith after Big Bill tries to attack Hangman on the outside only for Swerve Strickland to show up and choke Big Bill with a chain, allowing Hangman to hit the Buckshot Lariat for the win. After the match, Hangman dares Bryan Keith to claim his bounty now, then says Samoa Joe is not man enough to face him himself. He says that he will take everything from Samoa Joe. Swerve Strickland then warns MJF that if he wins and stays AEW World Champion, then he will have actually lost, for he and Hangman will be coming after him and he plans to become AEW World Champion again. All of a sudden, Kenny Omega shows up and enters the ring, stating that three of the greatest challengers for the AEW World Championship are right here, right now. He says that he, Swerve and Hangman have something to prove, and that he must prove that the nickname of "The God of Professional Wrestling" still means something, and if anyone still believes, then so does he. Omega says he must win a couple of matches first despite being an EVP, and regardless of whether he has to go through friend or foe, he is coming for the title. Hangman says that there are three men who want the AEW World Championship and that it is not a team effort, and if he and Omega cross paths, then hopefully the best man will win. Omega and Hangman shake hands. Hangman and Swerve leave, with Swerve none too thrilled about Omega's sudden appearance in the World title picture, then The Don Callis Family (Don Callis, Lance Archer, Rocky "Azucar" Romero, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander) show up. Callis says he has always been a big fan of MJF, but he is questioning MJF's logic of associating with "a scumbag" like Omega. He then challenges Omega to a match with Josh Alexander. Omega admits he can barely hear Callis over the crowd, but if Josh Alexander wants a match with him, then he has a little bit of time tonight to make his record towards the World title more sparkling clean. Callis says that he and Omega have known each other for many years, but reminds him that he does what "Daddy" says and that "Daddy" decides when the matches happen, and says the match will happen next week because what he says goes. As The Don Callis Family leaves, Omega says that today was a very big first step and that the fans have bore witness to phase one of him become AEW World Champion again.

Brody King quickly beats Jon Cruz. After the match, Brody King tells Bandido that he wants him to beat MJF's ass from pillar to post, and that after tonight, it will be an honor to step in the ring as the first new AEW World Champion.

MJF retains the AEW World Championship against Bandido by submission after reverting from Salt of the Earth to a LeBell Lock as he keeps Bandido away from the ropes. Bandido goes unconscious in the latter hold, and MJF wins and retains. After the match, MJF admits that he laughed when everybody said that Bandido would become AEW World Champion, and that everyone was right about Bandido. He says that Bandido will be World Champion in AEW, which means he has to attack him, which he does. MJF hits Bandido with the World title before punching him, then chases the referee out of the ring before attempting to unmask Bandido. Brody King runs into the ring, and MJF immediately runs to the back. Brody King checks on Bandido and helps him up, then both men celebrate to end the show.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for October 15, 2025

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kris Statlander and "Timeless" Toni Storm. Toni admits that she felt free losing the AEW Women's World Championship, but she felt nothing, and she has since dreamed of winning it back, even if it means winning it from someone she admires. She says that she does not know who she is without the title, and that she wants to know who Statlander is. Statlander tells Toni to remember who she has been all along and that she has yet to figure who she is, as she is a culmination of all she has been through and that she is different from the last time they faced off. Statlander tells that she will soon give Toni the rest that she deserves. Toni says that they will both find out the truth, but Statlander says Toni will have to learn to accept it. Both women then meet in the ring and go at it in a brawl. Toni then gets on her knees, hands behind her back, and gives Statlander a free shot, but Toni fights back. Statlander then does the same, and Toni rears back with the Women's World title at first before kissing Statlander on the forehead and handing the AEW Women's World Championship back to her.

Jack Perry carves a block of wood with a knife as he tells The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) that he actually likes The Young Bucks and will always be grateful for what they did for him, but when he needed them the most, they were not there. He then had to look into the past to find someone who would: Luchasaurus.

MVP clocks Ricochet with his own cane on the outside, but Bishop Kaun is able to get the win for Gates of Agony.

In footage from earlier today, Jon Moxley meets Darby Allin in an undisclosed location that looks like a prison visitation booth. Moxley wants to make sure that both men know the implications of an "I Quit" match and tells him that "the game is rigged in both directions." Moxley says the two of them both refuse to quit and that he is out of ideas as to how make this end, then tells Darby that if he wants to be on the . Darby says it is too late, and while he entertains the idea of joining The Death Riders and the cost of it, he does not respect Moxley due to what he did to Bryan Danielson. He asks why he would go to war with someone who considers family disposable. Moxley says that this is a war for the future of their craft and that hard decisions and sacrifices have to be made. Darby says that he realized AEW represented freedom at the top of Mount Everest and that Moxley is chipping away at what AEW represents, then says that before he looks at the flag every day to remind himself of that, he will wrap it around Moxley's throat and make Moxley realize that nothing he does mean anything when his empire comes crashing down. Moxley tells Darby that his opponent is not him and never has been; instead, he is fighting ghosts and spirits of the past, which he says never ends well. Moxley says that this is a selfish game and tells him once again that this is not about him before Darby is suddenly attacked from behind by PAC. Darby is bloodied and is heard coughing on his own blood, which also stains the window. Moxley then leaves the room.

The lights go out, and when they come back on, Omega is suddenly attacked from behind by Andrade el Idolo, who has just returned from WWE. Don Callis gets in the ring and shakes hands with Andrade before raising his hand.

We see a video package showing some of the best moments of Dynamite's six-year history.

Backstage, we hear from Mark Briscoe, who says that tonight is a time of celebration as well as reflection not only for AEW but for himself, as his life has been consumed by MJF for the last six months. He now knows that MJF is all talk and that he told him specifically not to mention Jay Briscoe's name, but he did it more than once, and he showed him that his words have consequences. As for winning the big one, he won big enough to send MJF on a sabbatical, but when it comes to winning championship gold, it is only because of MJF costing him a TNT title shot that he cannot do that. With Hologram injured, it is now up to Orange Cassidy to be champion. Briscoe says that unlike MJF, he can be unselfish and celebrate with his friends, and when Orange Cassidy wins the TNT Championship, he will celebrate with Orange while MJF sits on the couch picking tacks out of his body.

"The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher retains the TNT Championship against Orange Cassidy after Don Callis distracts Orange Cassidy only for Hologram to scare Don Callis off just so he can trip Orange off the top turnbuckle, allowing Fletcher to hit Orange with a brainbuster into the top turnbuckler to retain the title.

After the match, Samoa Joe suddenly argues with "Hangman" Adam Page, saying that Hangman has never beaten him, and security has to step in before things get worse. That does not stop Joe from hitting Hangman with a cheap shot, and security has to get into place before Joe leaves with Hobbs.

We hear from Willow Nightingale and JetSpeed ("Speedball" Mike Bailey and "The Jet" Kevin Knight).

Before she says that she is timeless, however, Toni stops short of doing just that.

We see a video package for Eddie Kingston vs. Dralistico on Collision, which has an early start time this week of 7 PM Eastern/4 PM Pacific.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Samoa Joe and Powerhouse Hobbs. Joe questions if he and "Hangman" Adam Page and that he has been so focused on The Death Riders that he has forgotten who he is.

MVP feels that he may have lost a step and may not be the wrestler that he used to be, but he can still fight better than The Demand can.

He says he would not put his hands on a woman, and he states that he uses that term loosely regarding Beth before Willow Nightingale suddenly shows up. Willow says that if Dax wrestled as good as he lied, he would have won, then brings up Beth and how she has been an inspiration for her to become a wrestler and put in the work to become All Elite and accomplish what she has done. She says that Beth is also the reason why women like her do not take shit from men like Dax, and says that FTR can give a more sincere apology or get out of the ring.

We look back on Mercedes Martinez vs. Athena for the ROH Women's World Championship from Final Battle 2022.

Billie Starkz is in the ring, where she welcomes Athena for her celebration of being the longest-reigning champion in all of Ring of Honor history. Athena arrives with Lexy Nair on a chain, and she is taken aback by the streamers and confetti by the MIT Dance Team, who soon dance for a few seconds before Lexy Nair cuts the music, with Athena unimpressed. (Three of the members are Olumide, Alpha Zo and Chris Nasty, who competed on the most recent AEW Collision.) Athena says she asked for Ja Rule, then tells the minions to get out of the ring, which they do with great urgency. Athena says this was supposed to be her day and her moment of celebration, then says her parents were supposed to be here until her mother put getting major surgery over celebrating the only success that she has had in life before calling her mother "selfish." She also wants to know where the women's division is after she "lifted every single one of those hussies out of mediocrity," and while they are "mediocre" and "still suck," she did the best with what she had and she cannot do the Lord's work. Athena says that without her, there would be no ROH, let alone no women's division, and says that day in and day out, she has never been content and has wanted more, and that she has come here and busted her ass and done her job busting "hussies'" heads. She says she is the best in the world and the greatest of all time, but some people want to call her overrated, but Athena prefers the term "underappreciated." She says she deserves more than this, as she has not been pinned or submitted in almost two years, and asks where her flowers, recognition, tribute and appreciation are at. She then says the fans suck and does not know why she is in "this podunk town," then says the party sucks and blames it all on Billie. She says that Billie is jealous of everything that she has done in her career, and that Billie wishes she was her due to how she looks at her, because Billie could not even do a tenth of what she has done in the past year. As she says this last part, she jabs her finger into Billie's chest, and Billie snatches the microphone from Athena's hand before telling Athena she is done. She shoves Athena, then leaves. Lexy says this is still a good celebration and does not know what has gotten into Billie, then shows Athena the original ROH Women's World Championship, now with a picture of Athena in the center plate that also spins much like a John Cena spinner belt, which Athena loves. Athena hugs Lexy, then Abadon's music hits. Lexy hides under the ring, but Abadon does not show up and Athena thinks this is all a joke. When she pulls Lexy out from underneath the ring, Abadon is on the other end of the chain instead, and they beat Athena up before hitting her with Black Dahlia. Abadon then notices the celebration cake, unhooks themselves from Athena and throws the cake in Athena's face.

In backstage footage from this week's Dynamite, Mark Briscoe is in pain, and cannot speak before turning away from the camera.

"The Machine" Brian Cage retains the ROH World Television Championship against Komander.
