The Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley and "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson) beat Kyle Fletcher and Jeff Cobb. After the match, Konosuke Takeshita gets in the ring and suplexes Moxley out of the corner, and he, Fletcher and Cobb go on the attack. Suddenly, Claudio Castagnoli shows up with a crowbar to make the save.



We see a video package of Swerve Strickland making media appearances as AEW World Champion as part of a recap of the feud between Swerve and Christian Cage.

Adam Copeland is about to head to the ring when he is attacked by Brody King and Buddy Matthews, with Malakai Black watching from not far behind. They get a metal folding chair, and Buddy and Brody hold Copeland down as Malakai says he does not care why Copeland maintains a facade of what he thinks he is, then tells Buddy to take Copeland's wedding ring. Brody chokes Copeland out to ensure Buddy does just that, then Malakai takes the wedding ring and examines it before pocketing the ring. He and Buddy place chairs next to a downed Copeland when Kyle O'Reilly rushes in. O'Reilly fights off Malakai and Buddy, but he is clotheslined by Brody. Malakai soon hits O'Reilly with The End, then he, Buddy and Brody drop kick Copeland from different angles, kicking the chairs into Copeland's skull.



We see footage of Eddie Kingston's match from New Japan Pro Wrestling Resurgence and the aftermath where The Elite (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, Jack Perry) attacks him as part of a recap of the events leading up to the Anarchy In The Arena match at Double or Nothing.

We hear from The Elite (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry), who make fun of Eddie Kingston being injured and how Eddie's team might have to forfeit. Kazuchika Okada tells Dax Harwood that he will destroy him tonight before calling him a bitch.

We see a commercial for The Young Bucks' (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) own version of the Reebok Pumps.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler). Wheeler states that they will not forfeit the Anarchy In The Arena Match and that they may have found a new fourth member. Harwood calls "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada "The Elite's (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry) bitch."

Jack Perry guests on commentary for the next match.

The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) beat "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and Matt Sydal in an AEW World Tag Team Championship Eliminator Match. After the match, Matthew mentions Christopher Daniels speaking down to them and putting his hands on him, and says he should know better as an executive. He says they are trying to clean the locker room and office for toxicity, and says that Daniels is screwing things up. Matthew then fires Daniels, then says that they will take care of his family and give him a paycheck for the next 30 days as well as a security escort.Matthew then sarcastically thanks Daniels for "five years of kick ass work" before leading the crowd in an "A-E-Dub" chant. Jack Perry makes a toast to The Elite, then pours his drink on Tony Schiavone's head. Tony calls Jack Perry a son of a bitch.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews "Timeless" Toni Storm, Luther and Mariah May. After it is mentioned that Saraya, Luther and Mariah are banned from ringside for the next match, Toni says that Harley Cameron will answer to her after what she did to Mariah, then thanks Serena Deeb for knocking her out so she did not have to hear the rest of her sob story and tells her that she will leave her laying and wondering where her dignity went at Double or Nothing.

Backstage, we hear from Malakai Black, who looks at Adam Copeland's ring as he says that the ring has been holding Copeland back. He then says that he knew there was a part of Copeland that still existed when he issued a challenge for a barbed wire steel cage match, and when he beats Copeland, Copeland must bend the knee to The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthew, Julia Hart).
Hook beats Sebastian Wolfe with Redrum. After the match, Hook takes the microphone and says that he is here for Chris Jericho and the FTW Championship, and calls Jericho out. Jericho shows up with Big Bill and says it is great to have Hook, hopes that Hook had learned a few lessons after last time, then says it is great to share the spotlight with Hook. Hook says he wants the spotlight on Jericho when he beats him for the FTW Championship tonight. Jericho says this is a teaching moment, not a fighting moment, and tells Hook that the world does not revolve around him and that he should be less selfish like him. Jericho says he and Big Bill are here to entertain everyone tonight, and tells Hook that he must work his way back up when he loses a championship and that he and a few others will have a qualifying match, and if Hook wins, he has the chance to face him again. Hook accepts, then hits Jericho in the head with the microphone and beats him up. Big Bill grabs Hook from behind, and the numbers game quickly takes over. Suddenly, Katsuyori Shibata shows up and makes the save for Hook as he sends Big Bill flying out of the ring.



Backstage, Swerve Strickland tells the state of Washington that he brought the AEW World Championship home, then says that The Mogul Embassy ("The Machine" Brian Cage, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) bit the hand that fed them and got put down and that he is now focused on Double or Nothing. He says that Christian Cage may have put him in a casket, but he will put him in a grave. As for "The Machine" Brian Cage, he will put the final nail in The Mogul Embassy's coffin.

Swerve Strickland beats "The Machine" Brian Cage in an AEW World Championship Eliminator Match. After the match, Swerve attacks Brian Cage's left shoulder while pulling out two metal folding chairs, then Christian Cage and Mother Wayne show up. Swerve is hit from behind with a low blow by Nick Wayne, and Killswitch shows up to attack Swerve alongside Nick Wayne. Nick Wayne then takes Swerve's family portrait and smashes Swerve in the face with it, busting Swerve open. Christian tells Swerve that he embarrassed Nick Wayne when he attacked him in his gym last year, and now he is forced to embarrass Swerve. He then asks Swerve if his daughter is proud of him, then rubs the portrait on Swerve's bleeding forehead. He says that he has taken Swerve's blood, and soon, he will take his World Championship.



We see an advertisement for "Meal and a Match," AEW's new YouTube series airing every Friday at 2 PM Eastern/1 PM Central on TBS' YouTube channel.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Hook and Katsuyori Shibata. Hook says the odds could not mean less to him, and he will do what it takes to face Chris Jericho again. Shibata asks Hook if that means beating him, as he wants another shot at Jericho. Hook says that is fine by him, then Samoa Joe shows up and says he thought Hook was something special until Jericho had him at Shibata's neck, and tells him that if they would stop getting at each other throats, they would be dangerous in AEW. Hook tells Joe he will fight him, and Shibata says Joe is too large to be wearing a floral pattern.

"Timeless" Toni Storm beats Harley Cameron in a grudge match that sees Saraya, Luther and Mariah May banned from ringside. Serena Deeb shows up early on in the match to watch from the ramp.



Backstage, Undisputed Kingdom (Roderick Strong, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett, Wardlow) and Will Ospreay have a backstage interview with a "no physicality" clause. Ospreay says that he has a bad taste in his mouth after last week, and says that Roderick Strong is only comfortable as champion because he is surrounded by Undisputed Kingdom and because he has retired the Tiger Driver '91. He tells him that he has done the Tiger Driver '91 on people he has loved and respected and admits he has no respect for Roddy as Roddy has none for him. Roddy says Ospreay is right about that, as he is talented in the ring and an idiot out of it, and while Ospreay has a wife and child, he still acts like the same immature little boy. He says his neck injured, but he does not quit, and he does not care what people think of Ospreay because he knows Ospreay is a fraud. Ospreay says Roddy will learn a lesson after looking down at him for years when he shows him why he is on another level.

Renee Paquette moderates a contract signing between Mercedes Moné and Willow Nightingale for the TBS Championship at Double or Nothing. Mercedes arrives first, followed by Willow. Willow says she respects Mercedes and everything she has done in her career, but she wants to know if she respect the TBS Championship, which celebrates the legacy of professional wrestling over the last fifty years on a foundation built on fighting. She says that she is the face of TBS, and that "Nothing matters, smile anyway" means that her smile is her strength and that the TBS Championship matters, and she will not let Mercedes take the title from her. She then signs the contract. Mercedes says "Money changes everything" is a fact, not a catchphrase, as she was changing the game while Willow was still training and breaking glass ceilings as she made her way to the top. Mercedes tells Willow that she respects her and that she is a great champion, but there is a difference between being great and being the greatest of all time. She says that she is the new face of TBS, and while the best part of Willow's career was beating her, her loss to her at Double or Nothing will still be the best part of her career, as her legacy is all about winning. Mercedes signs the contract. Willow reminds Mercedes that she walked out as champion while Mercedes did not walk out at all last time they wrestled. Mercedes slaps Willow, starting a brawl, and Willow responds with a Doctor Bomb through the table.



"The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada retains the AEW Continental Championship against Dax Harwood. During the match, Okada brings the Continental Championship into the ring, and when the ref takes it away, Okada hits Dax with a low blow before hitting him with the Rainmaker for the win. After the match, The Elite (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry) attack Dax, and when Cash Wheeler and Bryan Danielson try to make the save, The Elite also gang up on them. All of a sudden, Darby Allin heads to the ring and attacks The Elite from behind with a skateboard, evening the odds and forcing The Elite to retreat.



Here are the highlights from tonight's show!

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for March 29, 2023

"Jungle Boy" Jack Perry beats Matt Hardy after Hook shows up and fights "All Ego" Ethan Page for getting involved in the match on more than one occasion, taking their brawl to the back. He then says that Jungle Boy's career ended up being mid and yet he still left it all out in the ring all for the fans, who never said "thank you" to him, and never got much in the way of TV time, and says Jungle Boy should be mad at himself. He says that after their match in which they stole the show, MJF went to the back and felt he had met his equal in the ring, a man he would wage war with for the rest of his life and a man he respected, and he shook Jungle Boy's hand. Jungle Bly brings up MJF telling him that night after the match that nice guys finished last and to only care about himself if he wanted to succeed, and MJF says Jungle Boy continued to hang out with Jungle Express, who he says held him back. After stating that Hook will be no different, MJF tells Jungle Boy that they could have run AEW and that this could have also been "The Jack Perry Show," but he had to be the good guy for the fans and it got him nowhere while he is the best in the world. MJF says that he has wrestling's greatest prize in "The Triple B" while Jack Perry is "still Jungle Boy," then Jack Perry says he wishes they could be the best of friends and that he could be more like him before wishing he didn't care about being "a narcissistic piece of shit" who stabbed people in the back. He then says that is not him and that he will do things his way, and when he becomes AEW World Champion, he will not wake up and hate the person he sees in the mirror. MJF sarcastically congratulates Jack Perry for taking four years to learn how to talk, and while they could have been the best of friends, Jack Perry has been "a massive disappointment" as he is weak in body, mind, heart and soul. After MJF says he went up to his fiancée Anna Jay A.S. and found out from her that he is "weak between the knees," Jack Perry attacks MJF, starting a brawl. MJF flees before he can be hit with a running elbow to the back of the head.



Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews Don Callis and Kenny Omega in the trainer's room. Callis says that he lost his balance after he grabbed "Hangman" Adam Page's wrist, then asks Kenny why he was angry afterwards. Callis tells Kenny to focus on Jeff Cobb tonight while he handles things with Adam Page.

We see footage of The Acclaimed ("Platinum" Max Caster, Anthony Bowens, "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn), Angelo Parker and Matt Menard having a night out on the town. Jake Hager (and his hat) is also seen in the footage. When asked if The Acclaimed are in or out of the Jericho Appreciation Society, Bowens says they will have a decision by next week.

The Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta) quickly beat Dalton Castle and The Boys (Brandon and Brent Tate).

We see a video package for Jeff Cobb vs. Kenny Omega for the IWGP United States Championship later tonight.

Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews "Hangman" Adam Page. Page says The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) have been better, but they will heal. He is convinced that The Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta) did this, then Don Callis shows up and apologizes for last week. Before Page can shake his hands, The Blackpool Combat Club attack him, then Moxley punches Callis out and busts his forehead open in the process. (Don Callis ends up getting legitimately injured because of this, and it is later reported that Don Callis was busted open after his head hit a lighting rig. Callis recovers.)

Before the next match, Tony Schiavone tells Kenny Omega that The Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta) have attacked Don Callis. Omega says he has to focus.

Kenny Omega retains the IWGP United States Championship against Jeff Cobb with the One Winged Angel despite a rib injury making it difficult for him to hit his finisher. After the match, The Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta) surround the ring, then "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson shows up for the first time since his loss to MJF at Revolution and chews out The Blackpool Combat Club for what they are doing. He tells all three men to get off the apron as he confronts them for their conduct, then offers his hand to Kenny Omega. Omega goes after Yuta, then Danielson hits him with the Busaiku Knee before putting him in the Lebell Lock. Don Callis, Brandon Cutler and members of security run towards the ring, but to no avail, and Danielson shakes hands with the rest of The Blackpool Combat Club before all four men celebrate. Afterwards, Danielson tells Kenny Omega that he "is everything that is wrong with wrestling."



We see a video package for the events leading up to FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) vs. The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) for the AEW World Tag Team Championships. We then hear from The Gunns backstage. Austin says that FTR may be the best of their generation, but it took them nineteen years to get there while he and Colten became tag team champions in two years. He says that FTR used to be their heroes until they met them, and now they hate them and do not respect them. Colten says that they respected their father "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn and they left him laying, and Austin says they will do the same to FTR.

Orange Cassidy retains the AEW Intercontinental Championship against The Butcher after The Blade hits Orange Cassidy with a crowbar and Best Friends (Chuck Taylor and Trent Beretta) takes The Blade out before Taylor hits The Butcher with the crowbar as the referee checks on Orange Cassidy.



We hear from Jade Cargill, Leila Grey and "Smart" Mark Sterling. Jade says that Taya Valkyrie has become a problem and calls her recent actions an outrage. "Smart" Mark Sterling warns Taya Valkyrie that if she uses the Road to Valhalla on Rampage, he, his process server (who is to the left of Sterling) and Jade will sue her.

We hear from "Rock Hard" Juice Robinson, who tells Action Andretti that he is in a fight with someone who is real mad and has tunnel vision for "Absolute" Ricky Starks on Rampage. Juice then tells Starks to watch him make an example out of Andretti and that it will be a hint of what he will do to him.

Ruby Soho beats Willow Nightingale after putting her feet on the ropes for leverage while Toni Storm keeps her feet held down. After the match, The Outcasts (Saraya, Toni Storm, Ruby Soho) attack Willow, then wrap a chair around Willow's left leg. Riho and Skye Blue run into the ring and fight The Outcasts only to be outnumbered. Saraya is about to spray paint Riho when Jamie Hayter and lays Ruby out with the Hayte Breaker. Saraya retreats, as does Toni Storm, and Hayter helps Riho out before shaking her hand.



We hear from Powerhouse Hobbs, who brags about his recent wins as TNT Champion and states that the championship will never leave his waist.

Adam Cole beats Daniel Garcia in his first match in an AEW ring in nine months. After the match, Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. heads to the ring and kisses Adam Cole in the center of the ring while streamers rain down. Suddenly, Chris Jericho shows up, checks on Daniel Garcia and helps him out of the ring without even looking at Adam Cole. At the top of the ramp, Jericho looks over his shoulder briefly, then heads to the back with Garcia.

Hook beats The DKC with Redrum.



Backstage, "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry interviews FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler), Jeff Cobb and Great-O-Khan. Cash Wheeler says singles wrestling may not be his forte, but he will not back down from a fight, and Jeff Cobb will not walk out 100%. Jeff Cobb demands that respect be put on his name and mentions that he respects what FTR has done for tag team wrestling, but wanting more gold will get them in trouble, and this Sunday, he and Great-O-Khan will walk out with two titles on Sunday.

Backstage, Billy Gunn tells The Gunn Club (Austin and Colten Gunn) and The Acclaimed ("Platinum" Max Caster) that he has gotten them in the Buy-In match for Forbidden Door. The Gunn Club have to be told that they are going to Chicago, Illinois and not Tokyo, Japan.

She says that made her hungry, and when she gets hungry, "[she] breaks bitches." She then says that she broke Riho and cut her strength, and says that the courage that Riho shows got her nowhere. Nyla says that she represents unbridled power, and that the fans can buzz around and says what they are going to say, but she is "the queen bee in this hive." Nyla says that she will be a one-time champion, as nobody can stack up to her, beat her or even be a beast like her.

Before Riccoboni can introduce Jay Lethal, however, Matt Taven shows up. He thanks Riccoboni for saying that he successfully defended his purple World title at Final Battle, and says that nobody in the ring is deserving of a title shot against him. Taven congratulates Gordon for winning a tournament, and says that for the past year, Gordon's nose has been buried so deep in The Young Bucks' (Matt and Nick Jackson). He says that he likes everything Sabin has done, and says he has not done anything to be relevant in the World title picture. Taven then mocks Scurll for being the only member of The Elite left in the company and says he came up short the last two times he went for the World title, then says it is time that Dalton left and faked another injury. He says nobody in the ring is worthy of another title shot, and his next challenger will have to earn it like he did, because hie is Matt Taven.

"The allen Angel" Christopher Daniels shows up. He says that Final Battle was not a good night for SoCal Uncensored (Daniels, Frankie Kazarian, Scorpio Sky) following Ladder Wars and his loss to "The Villain" Marty Scurll. He announces that all he has left to do is to say goodbye, but he will take the great memories of ROH and his career here with him, as everyone he has faced here became friends, comrades and brothers. He says he will remember the satisfaction of finally holding the ROH World Championship, and says that there comes a time when the memory of a man becomes more important than the man himself. He asks that the fans' memories of him be those of a man who gave his all to be the best professional wrestler he could be every time he stepped in an ROH ring. Daniels than thanks the fans and says that he loves them before saying goodbye and receiving a standing ovation. Suddenly, ROH COO Joe Koff shows up on the stage to tell him that this the past year must come to closure, and admits that Daniels did something at Final Battle that made him rethink the situation: putting his body on the line Carey Silkin against Bully Ray, which showed Koff that he wasn't doing this to save his job, but because he loves ROH and what it means to him. As a result of Daniels' actions, he awards Daniels with a new contract for 2019. Koff thanks Daniels and hands him his contract, then Daniels is suddenly attacked by Shane Taylor, who mouths off at Koff. Daniels and Shane brawl, and Shane gets the upper hand before hitting Daniels in the back with a steel chair.

He says that he is in a position where if he wins, he will get a new lease on life in ROH, which means if that if he has to go through Scurll to stay in the company that he helped build and make famous, so be it. Scurll leaves the commentary table and enters the ring, and ask Daniels if he wants to be known as a legend in the business or if he wants to be known for a three-letter catchphrase, and says it would be an honor to give him the match of his career before warning him that it will be his final battle.
