Backstage, we hear from The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Bear Bronson, Cedric Alexander). Alisha Edwards says everyone is getting too comfortable thinking they are finished and falling apart. Eddie Edwards admits they had a bad night last week, but it will not tear down everything they worked hard to build. Brian Myers says that Ricky Sosa is the new toy everyone wants to play with, then says that The System does not play and that Sosa got lucky. Bear Bronson says lucky is an understatement, and that Sosa pissed him off after pinning him and that he plans to break him in the ring. Cedric Alexander says he will nip The System's Fabian Aichner problem in the bud and that he will prove why he rules the X-Division. Eddie says that at the end of the night, everyone will learn that you cannot beat The System.

Frankie Kazarian guests on commentary for the next match.

Moose beats AJ Francis by disqualification after Frankie Kazarian attacks Moose on the outside for knocking the popcorn out of his hands. After the match, AJ Francis and Expressions both attack Moose, and Francis hits Moose with the Down Payment.

Backstage, Elayna Black talks about her match with Wendy Choo in the TNA Knockouts Television Championship Tournament, and while she respects Wendy, Wendy is in her way of championship gold. She says that when all is said and done, everyone will say she is the greatest Knockout in all of TNA history. Xia Brookside shows up and says that the Knockouts World Championship proves she is the greatest, as she has beaten everyone put in front of her and that is not going to change. She tells Elayna to mind her business, face Wendy, stay in her lane and watch her mouth. Elayna says Brookside is scared of her, but that is fine, as they both know she is everything Brookside will never be.

Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero) heads to the ring for the State of the Order address. Mustafa Ali says that Order 4 should be covered in championship gold, yet he is the only one to get the message. He says he has given Skyler, Hotch and Tasha everything only to get problems. Mustafa says he is not mad; only disappointed in their failures and their comfort with failure. He says that he is a humble man who needs help and that Order 4 needs someone to get their heads out of their asses. He says he needs someone to hold Skyler, Hotch and Tasha accountable, then introduces the newest member of Order 4: the Secretary of Strategic Affairs, Mila Moore. Mila Moore shows up in all black in heels, glasses and a secretary's outfit, and she shakes hands with Skyler and Hotch only to be spurned by Tasha. Mila Moore thanks Mustafa for believing in her and for the opportunity. She says it is an honor to work for a man like Mustafa, and says that Mustafa gave her the call, she knew that there was a lot of work to do. She declares "In Ali I trust," which causes Tasha to mistrust her further. Mustafa has Mila hold the International Championship after almost having Tasha hold it, then says there needs to be a new #1 contender for the title and that it will be decided by "the international vote" in the locker room. Mustafa declares that the locker room will vote for who is most worthy of facing him for the International Championship, then welcomes Mila Moore to Order 4. While everyone else puts their hand on their hart for "In Ali we trust," Tasha does not. Tasha also is the last to leave the ring.

As per the Bioflex Injury Report: Moose is currently undergoing evaluation following tonight's match. Lei Ying Lee is out with a head injury and is out of competition until medically cleared.

"The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth heads to the ring. Nemeth says he is not just the TNA World Champion, but "the best damn thing going today," and the world is chasing him as he does what he does better than anyone else every night. He lets everyone know that when the World Championship is on the line, it is a big money match. Suddenly, KC Navarro shows up. Navarro heads to the ring as Nemeth tells him to go away and go to the back, and barely lets him get a word in edgewise as he tells Navarro that he had a chance to ride his coattails and could barely do that. Navarro leaves the ring as Nemeth demands he go away, and as Nemeth says that he does not care who he faces as long as he is facing "a grown-up." Navarro tells Nemeth that the things he loves does not love him back and that sometimes, he gives and gives only to get nothing in return. He says he has come up short on opportunities he has gotten, then says he has something to prove and that Nemeth has the one thing that can help him prove everyone wrong. Navarro says he has lost a lot recently and that the only thing that can make him feel better is the TNA World Championship, then tells Nemeth to put the title on the line next week and says that he is here to show the world that he can be TNA World Champion. Nemeth accepts the challenge on the condition that Navarro leave him alone for good.

Cedric Alexander retains the TNA X-Division Championship against Fabian Aichner after Cedric sends Aichner out of the ring so that Eddie Edwards can rush in and hit Aichner with the Boston Knee Party behind the referee's back, allowing Cedric to hit the Lumbar Check to win and retain. After the match, Eddie and Cedric stomp at Aichner, then Ricky Sosa runs to the ring and brawls with Eddie and Cedric only to be overpowered. Leon Slater suddenly runs in and makes the save.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for July 16, 2026

We see a vignette for Lio Rush that includes a lot of horror-inspired imagery and black ooze.

Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling puts The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Stori Denali) before stating that Beef is Beef. He says Beef picked a perfect time to ride their coattails, as The Premier Athletes get to put their first tag team titles and that the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships will not fit the waists of either Beef or the fans in attendance. Sterling then demands the people say that The Premier Athletes rule only to be told that they suck.

Dalton Castle and The Outrunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) retain the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships against The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari) and Beef. During the match, Beef is handed one of the Six-Man titles to use as a weapon, but he refuses to use it after some hesitation. After the match, Ian Riccaboni interviews Dalton Castle and The Outrunners. Magnum says that nothing succeeds like success, and Turbo says that somebody is jealous of their success. Dalton Castle says the three of them are the greatest trio to ever step foot in a wrestling ring, but Riccaboni reminds Dalton that The Lethal Twist (Jay Lethal, "Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian, "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson) is undefeated. Dalton is angry at the mere mention of them, and Turbo says that not even he can take the Six-Man title off his waist.

Alan Angels shows up and mocks AR Fox, saying he is just like everyone else in the wrestling business. He talks about how Fox trained him ten years ago, then says that Fox did not care and that while he took his students on the road with him, he did not take him. Angels says he did well for himself and got signed before All Elite Wrestling knew who he was, then says he has been and is still taking opportunities, and wants AR Fox to wrestle him. He says that when he does, it will not be student vs. teacher, but "equal versus equal." AR Fox then stops Angels from leaving just so he can punk him out.

AR Fox beats Alan Angels.

He sayshe is one of the best tag team wrestlers on the planet after having three different reigns with the tag team titles without ever losing them. He compares himself to water and that no matter who he teams with, he is "a universal wrestler" and everything one looks for in a professional wrestler, yet he feels a lack of respect from some people. He says that he is at war with his old self and the self he is trying to be, and credits his daughter Luna with trying to be a better person.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 16, 2025

Tony Schiavone introduces "Hangman" Adam Pearce into the ring to start tonight's show. The fans chant "You deserve it!" before Hangman says the fans are missing the point, saying the fans deserve this, not him, as they are the ones who needed, demanded, and supported AEW. He says that the stars of AEW do this because of the fans, then reiterates that the fans deserve this as well as to see the AEW World Championship as it held by someone with more gratitude than one will ever know. Hangman says that he did not just walk into a battle; he walked into a war to free the World Championship that lasted nine months. He says that some who fought this war have not come out the same. Hangman thanks Orange Cassidy, "Switchblade" Jay White, Adam Copeland, The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, "The Wrestler" Katusyori Shibata), "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson, Darby Allin, and especially Will Ospreay, who he says reminded him of why he loved wrestling and paid the price for this moment. The fans then chant "Whose house? Swerve's house!" Hangman says that if he is going to be the champion and man that he is, he must thanks Swerve Strickland, even if he is not sure if he helped for him, himself or AEW. Hangman calls last weekend a rollercoaster of highs and lows, and while he shed both blood and tears, he has a wife and two children who love him alongside millions who can look up to and respect him. He then proclaims himself "the champion of the fuckin' world."

"The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher beats Mascara Dorada.

In backstage footage from earlier today, Renee Paquette interviews The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson). Matthew says they are just looking for their locker room when they run into Marina Shafir, who does not even want to talk to them, before finding their own locker room and getting mocked by Ricochet and Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona). Don Callis shows up and sympathizes with The Young Bucks and says that despite their history, they can do some business. Matthew says they will not join his family, but at the same time, they are open to working with him.

In backstage footage from All In Texas, we hear from The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, MJF). MVP says he knew they would stay tag team champions and states that they have not been threatened yet, and begs for a legendary tag team to challenge them and take the titles. MVP says he is happy that "Hangman" Adam Page won, as there is nothing to prove against Jon Moxley and everything to prove against Hangman. He says that he is the best, not Hangman, and that he does not need his guaranteed world title shot to beat him. As he declares that title shot a "break glass in case of emergency" plan, he says that while Hangman is at peace, he is the embodiment of pressure and that he has no problem being the bad guy, as nice guys finish last.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match. Also before the next match, The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) come out to their usual entrance only for it to be replaced with their names in Comic Sans cycling through the color spectrum on top of unflattering footage with their theme music completely absent. Ring announcer Justin Roberts also rubs in the fact that The Young Bucks are no longer Executive Vice Presidents, as does the pre-match chyron.

Hechicero, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander and The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) beat "Speedball" Mike Bailey, "The Jet" Kevin Knight, Bandido and Brody King in an All-Star 8-Man Tag Match with a sleeper from Hechicero to Bandido.

Adam Copeland heads to the ring. After the fans sing along to his entrance theme, Copeland states that he did not return to save Christian Cage, saying that he is an asshole who has tried to make his life miserable since he showed up in AEW. He says that when Christian Cage cashed in his Casino Gauntlet title shot despite The Patriarchy telling him not to do it, everything crumbled around him, and that he does not blame Nick Wayne for turning on him. He also says that when he warned Christian of this, Christian's ego was so huge that he refused to listen. He hopes that Christian is pulling his skull out of his ass, but he is not holding his breath. Copeland then addresses FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and talks about their history in the last five years when he was cleared to compete again, as well as how FTR started complaining two weeks after Rated FTR was started. He says that FTR put him on the shelf for 4 months that he does not have after doing this for 33 years, and that he is he back to end FTR. Stokely Hathaway then shows up with three security guards. Stokely puts security between himself and Copeland and says FTR read Copeland like a book, then calls Copeland's weapon Spike so much of a liability that AEW, Tony Khan and Warner Media received three anonymous e-mails complaining about Copeland's behavior. He states that if Copeland interferes in FTR's matches or attack FTR, he will be fired. He also states that FTR is not scared of Copeland and is currently focused on the AEW World Tag Team Championships. Stokely then tells Copeland to "go find a hobby and leave FTR alone," and Copeland reminds Stokely that he said nothing about getting near him. Stokely sends security at Copeland, but they get knocked down, and the rest of security runs away. Copeland then hits Stokely with a Spear before telling him that he will get all of them. (One of the security guards Stokely pushes into Copeland's path is independent wrestler Kevin Ku.)

Backstage, we hear from Mark Briscoe, who says that MJF ducked him like a bitch in the men's Casino Gauntlet Match. He says that is now just getting started between himself and MJF, who has only experienced a portion of "Dem Boys." He says that MJF made a mistake conjuring up the other side of "Dem Boys" and that he will make MJF pay for his sins.

"The Toxic Spider" Thekla beats Queen Aminata, Kris Statlander and Willow Nightingale in a $100,000 4-Way Fight after Willow and Statlander brawl their way to the back before Skye Blue shows up and distracts referee Aubrey Edwards so that Julia Hart can show up and spit green mist in Aminata's face.

"Timeless" Toni Storm shows up on the balcony. Toni Storm announces that she is still AEW Women's World Champion before thanking Mercedes Moné for going all in with her. She says they did everything they set out to do, despite warning Mercedes that she would eat her alive if she made a fatal mistake. She declares that Mercedes Moné was "delicious" and that if she wants to come back for seconds, the buffet is always open. Toni also mentions that Luther was injured in the line of duty and that it requires reattachment surgery. She then proclaims that her tits are pointing to the future and that there are plenty of people with knives and that she ought to be careful. She states that the AEW Women's World Championship is "the big one" before Athena and Billie Starkz appear on the video screen. Athena says that soon, she will become "the forever AEW Women's World Championship" and reminds Toni Storm that Mina Shirakawa is hurt after she got in her way. She says that there will be nobody left to save Toni when she cashes in her Casino Gauntlet title shot. After entertaining when and where she could end Toni's world title reign, Athena says it is time to stop looking for happy endings, as her demise and murder are here. Toni is more than eager to accept Athena's challenge.

Backstage, we hear from Kip Sabian, "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne and Mother Wayne. Sabian says he chose Christian Cage, and says he took bullet after bullet when Christian Cage might as well had been pulling the trigger. He says they are no longer under a patriarch, but beside a matriarch. Mother Wayne says Nick and Sabian are her boys now and that Nick is her prodigy. Nick Wayne tells Christian Cage that he is past his expiration date to the point that he became a liability to them, and that he realized that months ago when Christian Cage strayed from the path and decided to do his own thing in becoming AEW World Champion. He says that Christian loved to get in his face and question how many world championship he has won when he is only 20 years old, and that the real question is how many world title he is going to win and what else he could do in his career. He says that Christian created this monster, and now he and the rest of AEW have to live with him as the new face of TNT and AEW, now and forever.

Don Callis introduces "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, who now has a new entrance, before the next match.

"The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada quickly beats an unnamed opponent. After the match, Okada addresses Swerve Strickland, saying that he screwed The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) before calling him a bitch. Swerve Strickland and Prince Nana show up, then Swerve tells Okada "Yeah, I did that. What you gonna do about it, bitch?"

"Hangman" Adam Page, Mark Briscoe and Powerhouse Hobbs beat The Death Riders (Jon Moxkey, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta) with a jackknife pin from Hangman to Moxley. After the match, The Death Riders go on the attack, but all of a sudden, the arena goes dark, and Darby Allin is seen in the luxury box. Hangman hits Moxley with the Buckshot Lariat as The Death Riders retreat.

Ethan Page changes his mind on defending, then picks Dante Chen for his opponent.

Roxanne Perez heads to the ring. Roxanne says that the fans are witnessing greatness before her eyes, yet give Lola Vice the standing ovation when it should have been her. She says that the fans do not deserve to watch her perform, even though she is so good before her prime and she is competing with the history books. Roxanne then mentions Charlotte Flair going from her first televised NXT match to become a future Hall of Famer with 14 women's world championship reigns, and says she is going to shatter all of her records. Roxanne then addresses Giulia and Stephanie Vaquer and the fans thinking they will beat her, and says that even they will not have a chance to beat her, much like Thea Hail, who has as much a chance of beating her as Duke Hudson has of beating Duke Hudson. Thea Hail shows up and says Roxanne Perez acts like she is owed respect when she is really owed nothing, then admits she used to look up to her. She then says that Roxanne is doubting her, and says that she has beaten doubters before.

As the crowd chants "Strip the title!", Heyman tells Angle and the fans have it all wrong and that Brock Lesnar loves being in WWE as Universal Champion. Angle wants to know why Lesnar is not here. Heyman explains that Lesnar wants to represent the WWE as a two-sport champion when he becomes the UFC Heavyweight Champion once again, just like when Angle challenged for both WWE titles and his Olympic gold medals. Angle admires this goal, but insists that Lesnar will defend the title at SummerSlam or else he will no longer be WWE Universal Champion. Heyman tells Angle he drives a hard bargain and is one hell of a negotiator, and that Lesnar will defend at SummerSlam.

Roode says he knows Ziggler is trying to give credit where credit is due, but says that if it wasn't for Drew McIntyre, he would not be in the ring bragging right now. He says that Ziggler should be on his hands and knees thanking McIntyre, or else he would be telling bad jokes in a comedy club. Ziggler asks Roode how fun it was to watch from the sidelines, and Roode says "the sidelines suck." He then says he is out here to challenge Ziggler for the WWE Intercontinental Championship right now. Ziggler doesn't want to do it, but Roode asks if he is afraid he can't do it on his own.
