Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 29, 2026

We see backstage footage from Redemption where The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir) watch as Kenny Omega hits the One Winged Angel on Will Ospreay to end the show. He says that Omega is not Ospreay's friend and that he needs to take the AEW World Championship from Omega. He also says that Ospreay is "truly on death ground."



Backstage, Renee Paquette tries to interview Will Ospreay when The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir) show up. Moxley approaches Ospreay, and when Garcia says something to Ospreay, Ospreay pops him with an elbow. Moxley has to hold PAC back, then asks Ospreay if he is sure he wants to do that. Ospreay tells Moxley that he does not pull the trigger for him, then hands the Death Riders patch back to Moxley and says he is out. Moxley then tells Ospreay that he has it all figured out, and allows Ospreay to pass through while helping Garcia up. "Hangman" Adam Page then suddenly shows up, having noticed what has just happened, and says that while he will not stick his nose in his business, he does ask Ospreay to ask him if he needs anybody. Ospreay says that United Empire is not happy with him and that The Death Riders will be breathing down his neck, and that he cannot trust Kenny Omega, and while he appreciates the help, he has to do this on his own. Hangman stops Ospreay, and tells him that he is the best he has ever been in the ring with, and wants to know if Ospreay believes he is the best. He tells Ospreay that he has this, and Ospreay thanks Hangman.



Andrade el Idolo retains the AEW National Championship against "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne and "Jungle" Jack Perry. After the match, Tony Schiavone interviews Andrade el Idolo. Andrade says he feels "tranquilo," because he screwed MJF and Don Callis, then says he will fight anyone and be the best National Champion ever.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews The Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor). The Brawling Birds agree that The Divine Dominion (Megan Bayne and Lena Kross) talk too much and have been avoiding them for far too long. Jamie Hayter then challenges Athena, Billie Starkz and Diamanté to a tag team match on Collision before Alex Windsor tells The Divine Dominion to be ready to brawl.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews The Don Callis Family. "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher says that he retained his title at Redemption without anyone's help and that his title will stay in the family. Don Callis says they may have taken some losses, but Mark Davis is angrier than he has ever been and he looks forward to what happens. "The Jet" Kevin Knight admits he lost, but he faces the best, and it will not be the last time he main events a pay-per-view. After Knight notes that he will take time to focus on the little things including the fact he is champion, he notes that Fletcher and "Speedball" Mike Bailey are tied up. After Fletcher tells Knight to focus on keeping his own title, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada shows up and says the International Championship will stay in the family, then leaves.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"Speedball" Mike Bailey and Brodido (Bandido and Brody King) beat The Don Callis Family ("The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher, "The Machine" Brian Cage, Jake Doyle) in a trios match after hitting the Ultima Weapon on Jake Doyle's back and getting the stack-up pin on a Sunset Flip.

We see footage of Renee Paquette interviewing Adam Copeland, Christian Cage and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) from earlier today. Nick says that The Young Bucks are already planning to travel with their families to All In so they can see this match. Both teams recognize each others' influence, and agree that they never thought they would face each other. Christian Cage says they did not come back to do a "greatest hits" tour and that he and Copeland plan to be the best tag team of two generations. Matt says The Young Bucks are still working on their legacy while Copeland and Christian have had two careers. Matt says they lost the tag team titles two years ago and have been clawing back to the top since, Copeland says they have been told for seventeen years that they would never do this again. After Matt says they will win the tag team titles for a fourth time, Christian Cage wants to know if The Young Bucks will be able to lift themselves up to the next level before saying he and Copeland will win. Copeland says that he and Christian are doubted despite everything they have done for the industry, and Matt says that they are still doubted for how they wrestle, even though they have done this for a long time.



Maya World retains the TBS Championship against Persephone after Hikaru Shida shows up and tosses Persephone a shinai only for Kris Statlander to show up and prevent Persephone from using it.

Chompy the Shark shows up for the blurb for Discovery's Shark Week.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Willow Nightingale in the ring. After a massive amount of streamers flood the ring and the fans chant for Willow, Willow is choked up from the support and says that she is living her dream before thanking the fans for being there even when there were a lot of doubters. She mentions winning the TBS title and becoming an inaugural Women's World Tag Team Champion earlier this year, then thanks her mother for getting her out of a funk when she got hurt, which led to her getting back and becoming Women's World Champion. Willow says "If life has been kicking you around, don't give up. Keep fighting, keep pushing through, because sometimes...sometimes, the comeback is even better than the dream." All of a sudden, Mercedes Moné shows up with a contract in her hands and says she is here for business, and tells her to sign the contract for their match at All In. Willow lays the contract on Mercedes' chest to sign it, which starts a verbal confrontation. After Renee says it is official and leaves, Willow asks Mercedes what her problem is before chalking it up to her holding the Women's World Championship. Mercedes says that one thing she hates most about Willow is not her smile or the fact that the fans love and adore him, it is that every milestone Willow has is written all over her story. She asks if Willow knows how that feels as the fans chant "shut the fuck up," before proclaiming that she will end Willow's fairy tale at All In, as she would be nothing without her and the fans only cheer for her because she stood across the ring for her. Mercedes then wants Willow to admit that she made her, then says she will take her smile along with her title. Willow and Mercedes argue, then The Divine Dominion (Megan Bayne and Lena Kross) show up, making this a three-on-one brawl. After Mercedes hits Willow with a chop block, The Divine Dominion hit a choke slam, then The Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor) show up and force Mercedes and The Divine Dominion to retreat.





Jon Moxley retains the AEW Continental Championship against Komander by submission with a sleeper hold. Before the match, it is announced that Collision will air tomorrow night on a special night at 7 PM Eastern/6 PM Central.



Backstage, Mick Foley interviews The Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin). Ace Austin says that they have big problems, and Colten Gunn says that they were screwed by The Dogs (Clark Connors and David Finlay) and The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia), and "Switchblade" Jay White is not even here. Juice Robinson challenges The Death Riders and The Dogs to a four-on-four tag team match on Collision.

The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) beat The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong) to become the AEW World Trios Champions after The Lethal Twist (Jay Lethal, "Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian, "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson) attack The Conglomeration behind the referee's back. After the match, The Demand and The Lethal Twist attack The Conglomeration, then Brody King shows up only to be overwhelmed. All of a sudden, "Hangman" Adam Page shows up with a barbed wire chair and clears the ring. Jay Lethal tries to take the chair only to cut himself, and Jay Lethal soon gets laid out with a Buckshot Lariat.



We hear from The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir). Wheeler Yuta says it is them against the world every night, and now The Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) wants to blame them for their failures. PAC says they will see The Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin) on Collision. Garcia says that PAC was right, especially about Will Ospreay, and that Ospreay has always been running away from the grind, especially when he tried to leave them. He says there is a hard way in and a harder way out. Moxley says that all of the morality police are out and that they meet people where they are at, then says the Continental Championship exemplifies what the sport is all about. He says he will walk into the unknown and into the fire with the Continental Cup, and if this is where his title reign ends, so be it.

Tony Schiavone introduces Kenny Omega to the ring. Omega is soon interrupted by Will Ospreay, and Omega is more than happy to see him, as he showed Ospreay how he felt at Redemption by hitting him with a One Winged Angel hoping he would get it, but now he has to get to the "tell" part. Omega says he cares about Ospreay and cares the world for him and wants the world for him, and mentions the promise they made to do their best and become champions. He says he put their friendship before the title every time, as it brought him joy to see him succeed. He then says that Ospreay repaid him by telling him that he gave up on himself, and says Ospreay has no idea how deep that cut before calling the AEW World Championship a declaration that he never gave up. Omega says that Ospreay was, is and never will be one to talk down to him, and while he tried to warn him about The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir), Ospreay thought he knew better and head to learn the hard lesson himself, and asks Ospreay how it feels now. Ospreay says he came back too early from his neck injury, because all he thought about was revenge, and when he finally had it, it slipped through his fingers, and he lost his confidence. He apologizes for letting the crowd down, and that he had no friends to turn to, including Omega. He says that the guy who took away his old life and the guy he had so much hatred for gave him a new life and an opportunity, and saw Jon Moxley as the guy who would take him where he always wanted to be. Ospreay admits he liked being a Death Rider, as it made him feel like his old self again and he felt like he had killers with him. He says that while he understands The Death Riders' protectiveness, he does not share their philosophy or Jon Moxley's tactics, and when they tried to do to Omega what they did to him, he could not let that happen to Omega. Omega says he did not forget, and that when he felt the chair around his neck and felt that he would have to accept his fate, he heard the crowd and felt the energy, and knew that Ospreay would save him. He says that when he finally saw Ospreay, he saw him with the AEW World Championship and the bag at his feet, and concluded that Ospreay wanted to suffocate him with the bag before accusing Ospreay of setting a trap. When Ospreay tries to defend himself, Omega slaps him. Omega continues to slap him as he asks Ospreay what he is to him now, saying that when Ospreay is put in the pressure burner, he always crumbles. Ospreay finally punches back and nearly hits Omega with a Hidden Blade, then says that as much as he respecst Omega, he will kick the shit out of him the moment he puts his hands on him. He says that he has filled in whenever Omega was not here, and that he has earned his way to the World title and spent his neck to get it, and calls Omega a mountain he has wanted to climb for ten years. He compares their match to the tie-breaking penalty kicks in a football game, then says that he can pull the trigger and that he wants Omega at his best so there are no excuses, and when he does finally pull the trigger, Omega will see it coming.

Copeland admits that Dynasty did not go his or Christian Cage's way and admits that FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) did what they said they would do. He also says that Christian is getting MRI's on his arm to see if it is broken. He mentions FTR piledriving Beth Copeland and stealing Christian's watch, saying that one does mess with Christian's watches, wine and women, in that order. Copeland then FTR's statement that he and Christian will not get another shot at the tag team titles, and states that this is about more than just the tag team titles after everything that they have been through and that he and Christian are not just going to tuck their tails and walk away. Copeland talks about how he and Christian were forced to career and forced to take their careers back, stating that they are like dogs on a bone and that they will be on FTR and take their pound of flesh. FTR and Stokely Hathaway show up, but it is just a distraction so that RPG Vice (Rocky "Azucar" Romero and Trent Beretta) can attack Copeland from behind while FTR join in. The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) arrive and give Copeland back-up, taking out FTR before making quick work of RPG Vice. Beretta soon eats a Spear from Copeland as FTR and Stokely slowly back away, and Copeland shakes hands with The Young Bucks.



Backstage, we hear from "Jungle" Jack Perry. He mentions his first title defense at Dynasty and says that Don Callis only got close enough to sniff the AEW National Championship after Mark Davis was defeated. Perry then challenges Don Callis to pick another challenger so he can add another notch to his belt as the National Champion.

The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) beat The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz and Myron Reed). After the match, The Young Bucks are attacked from behind by Clark Connors and David Finlay, the latter of whom has a shillelagh, and Dezmond Xavier tries to help out only to get laid out as The Rascalz are also decimated. Finlay says they may be down one Dog in Gabe Kidd (who is out with a shoulder injury following Dynasty, and says that one will have to kill all of The Dogs to get rid of them.

PAC beats an even more insane than usual Lio Rush by submission with the Brutalizer. In this match, Lio Rush talks to himself (even saying "I used to call him "The King," a reference to PAC's "King of the Cruiserweights" heel gimmick back when he was Neville in WWE), snaps at Daniel Garcia on the outside, and goes out with a smile on his face when PAC applies the Brutalizer.

Billie Starkz beats Allysin Kay by submission with a modified chickenwing.

Backstage, we hear from The Dark Order (Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds, John Silver). Reynolds states that they find themselves in a familiar place again: coming off a tough win in a six-man tag match, yet losing is essential to their success, as the more they lose, the more they want to win, which makes them dangerous. Silver says that no matter what happens, they keep coming. Evil Uno says that there are tag teams and trios who did not survive the fall while The Dark Order keeps falling only to get back up, as it makes the prize even more sweeter when they do get there, as The Dark Order is forever.

Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling says The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari) enjoy a little cheat meal from time to time, and when they do, it is a hot dog with a beautiful drizzle of ketchup as well as a nice slice of New York style pizza, which is "nothing like the trash they serve in Chicago." He says they cannot wait to get out of Chicago, Illinois, then give the fans a chance to say that The Premier Athletes rule only to be told that they suck.

Neon and Mascara Dorada beat The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari).

We see a vignette for Hechicero vs. Bandido for the ROH World Championship at Death Before Dishonor.

Hangman says that if Ospreay will have his back, then he will have Ospreay's, and as much as he appreciates it, he is his own man and he does not need help to win the World Championship, not from Ospreay and not from Swerve Strickland. He says he does not need help from the man who would threaten the safety of his family for his own glory, and last week, he made a promise; tonight, he will make another.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for May 7, 2025

"Hangman" Adam Page heads to the ring. Hangman says that it makes a big of a difference whether or not the cans cheer for him as he never thought the fans would cheer for him. He says that the last two years were a special hell and that after everything that happened to him and his family, he wanted revenge and found it. Hangman says he took nearly everything from a man and nearly killed him, and after their cage match, he thought he would feel some kind of joy and some sort of closure, but instead, he felt nothing. He says that he thought he could get that closure by getting in the ring one more time, but he could not do it.He says that he thought he could get that closure by getting in the ring one more time, but he could not do it. Hangman says he did not know why, and since then, he took his anger out on anyone who got in his way, and that pushed everyone around him away. Hangman says he will never forget what Swerve Strickland did to him and he will never forgive him for it, but he will have to put it all behind him. He then addresses entering the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament and making his way into the finals. When Hangman mentions Will Ospreay, Ospreay shows up and apologizes, then mentions that this is the first time they have ever spoken to each other despite the locker rooms that they have shared. Ospreay says he and the fans have seen Hangman's journey with their own eyes and how much the finals of the tournament means to him, and mentions how everything changed when Hangman lost everything. Ospreay then mentions that after Hangman beat Kyle Fletcher in the tournament, Hangman smiled again for the first time in a long time, and as much as Hangman must win, he cannot lose, as he has been proving himself as of late. He says that Hangman cannot take his spot back from him and that it is far too little, too late concerning his redemption and that the tournament is now about his ascension. As Ospreay and Hangman argue, The Don Callis Family shows up, and Don Callis says that every day he shows him how stupid he is, he proves that the day he left his family was the stupidest day of his life. He then tells Ospreay that Hangman is a violent psychopath who put his mentor into the hospital. As Ospreay dares Callis to bring two of his men into the ring for a match, Hangman stops him. Callis says that Hangman and Ospreay cannot go an entire segment without killing each other, and decides to take that challenge before he and his family leave.



Stokely Hathaway and FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) approach the announce desk, and Stokely asks Tony Schiavone if the commentary team has an issue with FTR, and mentions that while FTR have issued an apology, Schiavone has negative things to say about all of them. Stokely takes offense to being called "a snake in the grass" and calls Schiavone a "decrepit, pale, pasty piece of shit." Schiavone confronts Stokely, but Stokely shoves back. Cash Wheeler then says that Daniel Garcia gave them no choice but to strike when he turned his back on them, and that what they are about to do is going to hurt them more than it will hurt Garcia. Dax Harwood tells Schiavone to tell Nigel McGuinness that they will see him tomorrow night.

Ospreay stops MJF and tells him he is on another level.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Jamie Hayter. Hayter says the women's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament means more to her than it does to Mercedes Moné and that she will not let Mercedes represent Owen Hart's legacy.

Backstage, The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, PAC, Wheeler Yuta, Marina Shafir) gang up on Darby Allin. Moxley tells Darby he has left him no choice and punches him in the gut, then Claudio wraps a metal folding chair around Darby's neck before stomping the chair. He removes the chair, then Moxley kicks Darby down a flight of stairs.

Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir are in the ring. Moxley tells the fans showering him with hate that he forgives them and asks them to look inward, then says he has had to make some tough decisions and difficult choices, as well as some unpopular decisions. He says a lot of people in AEW do not like him or what The Death Riders (Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, PAC, Wheeler Yuta, Marina Shafir) say or do, and that if anybody in the back that has a problem with him or his people or what they do, they can come to the ring and tells him what problems they have with what they are trying to accomplish. Komander suddenly shows up and is taken out by Claudio Castagnoli. PAC and Wheeler Yuta soon show up and join in on ganging up on Komander. Top Flight (Darius and Dante Martin) run to the ring, but they also get attacked. The Death Riders all go on the attack, then Orange Cassidy shows up and comes face to face with Marina Shafir. He is soon joined by Willow Nightingale, who fights Shafir as Orange heads to the ring while "Hangman" Adam Page and "Switchblade" Jay White come out of the crowd. Orange, Hangman and Switchblade get in the ring, then the locker room empties and fights all over the ring. Christian Cage is seen watching from one of the balconies before more security and more officials show up to try to restore order. Meanwhile, PAC and Wheeler Yuta go into the crowd and destroy the lighting control board, then Shafir grabs a cameraman while he and Moxley head to the production truck. As the locker room brawls in the dark, Moxley and Shafir head into the truck. Moxley says everyone is fighting for scraps, but he will put an end to the chaos at Worlds End, clear the playing field and bring peace to his people. He then puts an end to Rampage, and the show is immediately cut to black.

The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews) beat The Iron Savages (Boulder, Bronson, Jacked Jameson) in a trios match. After the match, FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) heads to the ring. Cash Wheeler says they are here on business, and Dax Harwood says he has it made it his life's goal to be AEW World Tag Team Champions and have put the titles above everything else. Dax says nothing changes except the obstacle, and that House of Black is the obstacle and that they have built Collision off the back of the tag team division. He then challenges House of Black to a tag team match on Dynamite. Malakai and Brody step up when Dax asks who they will face, then Malakai says "Good luck," before FTR head back to the back.



Backstage, we hear from Lio Rush, who says that there is a shift happening and that everyone in AEW is a part of it. He says that his past is creeping up on him and forcing him to make a decision, which is why he has held on to MVP's business card. He says The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin) conducts business in a way he used to agree with, then talks about his recent wins before saying he is here and about to be on fire. Lio says he feels great, but he wants to feel greater and even alive again, which is why he is calling out Swerve Strickland on Dynamite.



Private Party (Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy) watch the next match from the stage.

The Outrunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) beat Top Flight (Darius and Dante Martin) in a 4-Way Contender Series Match to move on to the Fatal 4-Way Match for the AEW World Tag Team Championships at Full Gear.

MVP wants to know if The Acclaimed want to be serious and become tag team champs again, and brings up Caster's father playing in the NFL. Bowens tells them to watch what they say, and state that they are not interested. MVP tells Max Caster that he knows he still has the business card, and Caster shrugs it off.



Roderick Strong beats The Beast Mortos. After the match, Lance Archer runs into the ring and hits Roderick Strong with the Blackout while "The Machine" Brian Cage shows up to watch.



We hear from Mariah May, who says that she hates women's wrestling after not feeling that way before until she won the AEW Women's World Championship and realized she was surrounded by the worst and weakest women's division she has ever seen. She says she is the women's division and that everyone should be thanking her for standing on their necks, then says her talent is being wasted because nobody can touch her. She then says that she is the one who killed women's wrestling. Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Anna Jay, who says that she has done more than touch Mariah May and that she will choke her out until she pisses herself. She then challenges her to a no-disqualification match, and if she does not win, she will not challenge her for the title again. Anna says everyone wants Mariah's title and head, and that she plans to bring back both.

Kris Statlander beats Ashley Vox. After the match, Statlander is attacked from behind by Mercedes Moné, and referees rush into the ring to restore order.



Backstage, Rush, Dralistico and Jake "The Snake" Roberts confront The Beast Mortos for losing tonight, with Rush saying that they have an opportunity next week and that Mortos needs to show the beast that he is. Roberts says The Acclaimed ("Platinum" Max Caster and Anthony Bowens) are a bunch of squirrels playing around in a tree trying to find a nut, and that they will get no nut and more than they can handle.

"Scapegoat" Jack Perry retains the TNT Championship against Action Andretti in an open challenge. After the match, Daniel Garcia heads to the ring and confronts Jack Perry, saying he disagrees with him on a lot of things, especially the belief that they are alike, and calls him a multi-millionaire nepo baby who has had everything handed to him his entire life. Garcia says he fights for his friends and the fans while Perry does not care about anyone at all, and that he will never be anything like him before proclaiming he will be TNT Champion at Full Gear. Perry says Garcia can have the match at Full Gear, but he is not ready.



We see a vignette for Julia Hart confronting a veiled version of her House of Black self who shoots her with a bow and arrow. We then find out it is a nightmare.



We see The Outrunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) plug their gear at Shop AEW.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Daniel Garcia. "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard, who is nearby, tells Garcia that he is ready for Jack Perry, and all he has to do is prove his friends right and take the TNT Championship.

Mansoor says they have slid into Johnny TV's DMs regarding taking part in a trios match and are waiting for a response when he responds saying he has a match with Daniel Garcia and that they can join him at ringside. After Johnny TV approves of the picture of Mason Madden's hog - his pet pig - they try to leave Johnny TV style, but the backstage hand pushing the cart they are on accidentally goes the other way at first.

The Death Riders (Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC) retain the AEW World Trios Championships against The Conglomeration (Mark Briscoe, Kyle O'Reilly, Tomohiro Ishii). During the match, Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir show up, but so does Orange Cassidy and Rocky "Azucar" Romero. As O'Reilly has Wheeler Yuta in an ankle lock near theend of the match, however, Claudio slides a metal folding chair into the ring, allowing Marina Shafir to interfere behind the referee's back, allowing The Death Riders to retain. After the match, Orange Cassidy hits Wheeler Yuta with an Orange Punch before going after Jon Moxley starting a brawl on the outside that Orange Cassidy finishes.



Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
