Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for November 15, 2023

The Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley and Wheeler Yuta) beat Orange Cassidy and Hook after a shot from Wheeler Yuta to Hook from the apron, allowing Moxley to hit Hook with Death Rider and Wheeler to pin Hook with the Seatbelt. After the match, Jon Moxley says Orange Cassidy has been, is and will be nothing, and that he will put the world back on its axis when he grinds him into dust and becomes the International Champion, and that there is nothing Orange can do to stop him.



We see a Yakuza/Like A Dragon-style introduction of Chris Jericho, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi and Paul Wight as they head into the arena.

Tony Schiavone interviews Swerve Strickland, Prince Nana and "Hangman" Adam Page in the ring. Strickland and Nana enter the ring first, followed by Adam Page. There can be no physicality in the ring, or both men will be suspended for the rest of 2023 and their match is off. Adam Page calls Swerve Strickland a coward, a fraud, a phony, a waste of human life and a dumbass for breaking into his house, and that Swerve does not have what it takes to be world champion. He says that Swerve is not the man that he thinks he is and that this is why his fiance left him, and that he surrounds himself with "yes men." He also makes fun of Prince Nana's dance before stating Nana makes his living off Swerve and spends his living off weed from a high schooler before saying he will beat Swerve before beating Nana and stealing his weed. Hangman then says Swerve is a child, not a man, and that like with other children he has taught, he will teach him the biggest lesson of his life and he will be his judge, jury and executioner and send him to Hell. Hangman then punches Prince Nana - who is exempt from the "no physicality" clause - in the face, and security enters the ring only to get decked, with one of the members of security getting a Buckshot Lariat.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Roderick Strong and The Kingdom (Matt Taven and Mike Bennett). Roderick Strong calls Adam Cole and tells him that The Devil that if MJF. Adam Cole says it is not MJF, and that with all the accusations he is throwing around, Roderick could be The Devil. Roderick insists, then Adam Cole hangs up on him.

Skye Blue beats Red Velvet to qualify for the AEW Women's World Championship match at Full Gear. Both Kris Statlander and Julia Hart are seen watching from different locations backstage after the match.



We hear from Miro, who says that what he has been saying he will do is coming true. He says he loves CJ Perry, but she is bringing the storm. He says that he stood by and let her get what she wants, but his eyes are open and that she brings out the worst in everyone, including himself. He then says that Daniel Garcia will find out the worst of him, then says Daniel Garcia will dance at the beginning but be peaceful at the end, as while he does not pray to a god, Garcia will after the match.

RJ City helps Mariah May meet "Timeless" Toni Storm. Toni Storm is not in the mood to meet Mariah May before she tries to get a tune-up match for Friday.

Samoa Joe beats Jon Cruz. After the match, Samoa Joe says he comes from Southern California and extends his offer of friendship to MJF once again, then says that whether one has his friendship or not, he is inevitable.



The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) beat Penta el Zero Miedo and Komander with a low blow to both Penta and Komander by Nick Jackson followed by a Judas Effect from Nick and the BTE-Trigger to Komander.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews The Young Bucks. Nick Jackson says that it has been said that they no longer care about rules when Kenny Omega shows up and tells them to keep it clean for the pay-per-view. Matt Jackson says their heat is with Jericho, not him, then Chris Jericho shows up as Nick Jackson hopes to win so they can "do The Elite thing again." As Jericho says he will see The Young Bucks on Saturday, Nick Jackson attacks Jericho from behind, and security has to step in.

The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) quickly beat "Pretty" Peter Avalon and Jacoby. After the match, Colten Gunn says Adam Cole is gone and that the Ring of Honor tag titles will also be gone for MJF.



We hear from Wardlow, who says he saw fear in The Devil's eye and that MJF's time is running out, and that the days of The Devil running AEW is coming to an end. He says that as God as his witness, he will make The Devil his bitch.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

Chris Jericho, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi and Paul Wight beat The Don Callis Family (Powerhouse Hobbs, Konosuke Takeshita, Kyle Fletcher) and "The Machine" Brian Cage in the Like A Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Name Street Fight.



MJF heads to the ring. MJF says that his past keeps catching up to him and that the people he has friendships with keep getting hurt, and he apologizes to The Acclaimed for getting caught in the crosshairs in his life and hopes they feel better. He says that he has always wanted to be a world champion and has spent every moment making that a reality, and that he is proud to be on the mountain top of professional wrestling. MJF then says the air at the top is thin and lonely and that everyone coming to the top is coming to shove him off, then admits that he will lose everything and let the fans down like he did Adam Cole. He says the old him would have tucked his tail and ran, but he is done letting his past dictate his present and future, and while he is afraid, he is not willing to quit or give up his spot at the top, and it will take a whole army to take him down. MJF tells Jay White that he has been walking around with a title he has not earned and has a chance to prove it at Full Gear, then says neither Jay White or anyone can do it. He also warns the person who stole his devil mask that he will find out who they are and that there will be hell to pay when he does. Suddenly, Jay White shows up and tells MJF to drop the act because he is embarrassing himself trying to be the hero when he is and always will be the villain, and that MJF is not fooling him when he has said in the past that he is "The Devil." He then says that MJF is not the fans' hero as much as he is "their scumbag" and that the fans will drop him as soon as he means nothing to him, much like the fans mean nothing to him, and that MJF has never really changed. Jay White then says that MJF's days as World Champion are numbered and that MJF knows he is better than him, and at Full Gear, he will bleed. He then sics the rest of Bullet Club Gold ("Rock Hard" Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn), who pop out of the crowd, at MJF. Bullet Club Gold soon overpower MJF before Jay White hits MJF with Blade Runner before "pinning" MJF with Juice Robinson as the "referee" to end the show as Samoa Joe watches backstage.

After Dark Elevation - AEW Dark Elevation recap for September 27, 2021

Paul Wight beats CPA, VSK and RSP in a three-on-one handicap match. During the match, The Gunn Club (Billy, Austin and Colten Gunn) show up and watch from the stage.

We hear from Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D, Jamie Hayer and Rebel in footage from last week. Britt says Ruby Soho thought that she was a big shot until she beat her after her "two minutes in the ring." She says that she has made history with her recent main event matches.

We hear from MJF in footage from last week, who says that Queens in New York City is "a rat-infested dump" and that Plainview, Long Island, New York is his real hometown, then dares the locker room to stop him as no one has been able to. MJF says that AEW is nothing with him, and that they can bringing him people that "came from VKM."

We hear from Bryan Danielson in footage from last week. Danielson says he feels alive after facing the best guy in AEW, saying he wanted to come in hot. While he did not win, he says that professional wrestling is a wonderful thing and that while he is grateful for all the opp. He says it was his hardest match as there was so much fun even in the pain, and that he missed going to the ring and giving all that he had, and while he has been away from the ring since April, he has been gone from going full bore even longer. He mentions Kenny Omega not wanting a rematch, then says he will go through the locker room to get to the AEW World Championship.

In backstage footage from last Friday's Rampage, The Men of the Year (Scorpio Sky and "All Ego" Ethan Page) are interviewed. Page says he grew up idolizing Chris Jericho, and tonight, he and America's Top Team embarassed him. Page says he and Scorpio are proud of this and plan to celebrate. Scorpio Sky says he did not want to go this far, but if anyone wants to step up to the plate, they can take their shot and will have to go through his dead body, starting with Jericho, who made AEW what it is today. He says that Jericho took it too far and wouldn't step aside, and now, it is their time.

We see some interviews from before Grand Slam from Eddie Kingston, Homicide, Brian Pillman Jr., Oritz, Anthony Bowens and "Platinum" Max Caster. We also see Max Caster's anti-Tony Khan rap, both the rehearsal and the final performance, before Anthony Bowens wants to know why Tony Khan won't answer their open rap challenge. Tony Khan shows up and says that while he has written a lot of wrestling cards, he has never written a rap song and will not start today. He then brings out Lil Uzi Vert, thratens to suspend Bowens and Caster for thirty days, then brings out The Varisty Blonds, who level them on the ramp to the point that are sent running to the back. Tony Khan then hypes up the crowd.

Paul Wight talks about how he joined AEW to be part of something that is changing and growing, and that he is seeing the ebb and flow of what is happening in professional wrestling, and that while New York City is a tough environment to do a show for, AEW was able to get it done. He says that the talent in AEW is hungry to define the company and make their mark in the world, and says that the word is out and that anyone who is drawn to top-tier wrestling will be drawn to AEW, and hope that AEW gets to do more shows in New York City.
