Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for April 27, 2022

CM Punk guests on commentary for the next match.

Dax Harwood beats Cash Wheeler after reversing an inside cradle with one of his own to qualify for the men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.



It is announced that CM Punk will face "Hangman" Adam Page for the AEW World Championship at Double Or Nothing. Afterwards, CM Punk leaves the announce table and heads to the ring. He says that he has never seen a locker room with more talent than the one in AEW, then says that he asked himself seven years ago if he could still do this before confidently proclaiming that he can. Punk says he is a fan of Adam Page, and says that from Darby Allin to Dustin Rhodes, everything has been a warm-up, and while he cannot promise a win, he promises he can give his all, for without the fans, there is no CM Punk. Punk then admits that he has never been a gambling man, but tells Adam Page he will always bet on himself and that he will know he has been in a fight with him, and says that he will fight until the wheels fall off.



We hear from Dan Lambert and Scorpio Sky. He says it is no conincidence that Scorpio Sky is in a match for the TNT Championship, and Scorpio says his AEW success is also no coincidence. After saying he was screwed out of the TNT title in his second defense, he gives Sammy Guevara credit where credit is due before telling him he will beat his ass and take what is rightfully his.

The Blackpool Combat Club (Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta) beat The Factory (QT Marshall, Aaron Solo, Nick Comoroto) in a six-man tag match.



Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Jamie Hayter, Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. and Toni Storm. Toni tells Jamie Hayter she will see her in the first round again, then introduces a new friend in the form of Ruby Soho, who shows up and calls Hayter and Britt out for throwing their weight around and says "Enough is enough and it's time for a change." After Ruby says that she can make a change by dropping them both, Britt and Hayter leave, with Britt saying they have things to do in catering.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Jungle Boy, Luchasaurus and Christian Cage. Jungle Boy says last week stung because he knew he could have won, but Christian tells Jungle Boy last week was a teachable moment and that he can right a wrong. As Christian Cage throws an open challenge to any of the top five tag teams, Team Taz ("Absolute" Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs) shows up and "Absolute" Ricky Starks answers it.

Before the next match, MJF and Shawn Spears are seen in the skybox. MJF says the women in town use their personalities as birth control, then says that if people want to boo, then they will be even more upset when Lance Archer decimates Wardlow.

Wardlow beats Lance Archer.



The Jericho Appreciation Society head to the ring for a sit-down with meeting with Santana, Ortiz and Eddie Kingston. Angelo Parker says that Tony Khan gave them time for this meeting because he knows "sports entertainers are best for business." He says the Society have given their word to Khan and will give their word to "the AEW galaxy" that there will be no physicality, then Santana, Ortiz and Eddie Kingston head to the ring. Santana, Ortiz and Eddie Kingston throw away the chairs and the water bottles on their side of the table, then Chris Jericho shows his anger for the Society being barred from the arena last week. Jericho then demands an apology to the Society, then says he has something better than an apology: the middle finger. Santana also flips Jericho off, then says Jericho turned his back on "the two dudes who [knew him] best." Daniel Garcia calls Santana and Ortiz a couple of "tough guys" and that threats mean nothing, then tries to taunt Santana, Ortiz and Eddie into hitting them. It does not work. Eddie says he is not a fan of anything going on and topples the table before telling Jericho that he will get him and to "stop with the crap." Jericho reminds Eddie that it is five-on-three and that the Society will put a hit on them and take them out one by one. Eddie asks Jericho that when you put a hit on someone, you end things, but Jericho tells Eddie to stand there and shut up. Eddie tells Jericho he can smell the fear in him and that Jericho had better be ready to put them in the ground before they do it to him, then tells Jericho that he is not prepared.

The lights go out, and spotlights are focused on a downed Fuego del Sol. The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews) show up and pick him up, but they are warned by Alex Abrahantes - who is in the ring - that it is sacrilegious to unmask a luchador and that they will continue to get burned for messing with Penta Oscura before they can unmask Fuego del Sol. Alex Abrahantes then shows up on the stage, and the masked man in the ring is revealed to be Rey Fenix, who has not been seen in months. Rey Fenix swings a shovel, then brawls with Buddy Matthews. As this goes on, Penta and PAC brawl with Malakai Black and Brody King. Fenix, Penta and PAC then get in the ring and take out The House of Black on the outside.

Mox says that Gunn Club are a bunch of goofs and that it is time to break some faces. Yuta says that on Friday, the real work begins.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Jamie Hayter and Toni Storm. Hayter says she wants her match with Toni Storm more than Tony Khan, as they both honed their craft around the world, then says this is her crowning moment, not Toni's. Toni smiles and walks away, much to Hayter's irritation.

"The Captain" Shawn Dean beats MJF by count-out. Shortly after the beginning of the match, a few members of security are found laid out, with one man missing a shirt. Wardlow soon shows up behind the barricade and chases MJF to the ramp, and when Shawn Spears hits him from behind with a chair, it has no effect. MJF sics security on Wardlow, and as security holds Wardlow back, MJF is being counted out. MJF tries to bribe referee Bryce Remsberg with triple pay if he does not count to ten, but Bryce counts to ten. After the match, MJF shoves Remsberg, but Remsberg shoves back, and Shawn Spears has to hold MJF back. Meanwhile, Wardlow is fighting security backstage, and Wardlow says he will not stop until MJF frees him from his contract before pushing the cameraperson back.

Ethan Page mentions Sammy Guevara telling them to wait and see what he does next, then states that Sammy crawled to management and asked for a TNT Championship match in the only place in America where he and Tay Conti can get booed out of the building in. Dan Lambert asks what happened to the mixed tag team match that Tay Conti wanted, then says it is another Saturday night where Tay Conti goes unsatisfied. Scorpio Sky says Sammy Guevara may not have gotten the match he wanted, but he will get the ass-whipping he needed, and that the only thing that will be bigger than Texas is his winning streak.

Team Taz ("Absolute" Ricky Starks and Team Taz) beats Keith Lee and Swerve Strickland after Taz grabs at Keith Lee's foot from the outside in an attempt to trip him up.

Jeff Parker says Jericho deserves to be praised and appreciated for his contributions to wrestling and beyond, then Jericho says that the earth has been around for four and a half billion years and everyone is lucky to be alive in "The Chris Jericho Era." He says that for thirty years, the fans have lived vicariously through him and that without him, there would be no AEW. He then says that instead of being praised, he is undermined and ridiculed. Jericho says that the fans have the total package in him, yet nobody appreciates him and some have even disrespected and embarrassed him, and says that the rest of the Jericho Appreciation Society are the only ones who still appreciate him. He says that none of them relate to the rest of the locker room, as they are all pro wrestlers and pro wrestlers are never famous or millionaires several times over, and says that he is "a sports entertainer," which causes the fans to boo him. Daniel Garcia says that if Jericho will call himself a sports entertainer, then he is one, too. Jericho calls Garcia "the epitome of a sports entertainer," and says he appreciates him because Jericho donated thousands of dollars to his recovery from an injury. He then brings up 2point0 (Jeff Parker and Matt Lee), and announces that Jeff Parker and Matt Lee will be known by their real names Angelo Parker and Matt Menard respectively and that the word "2point0" is "a bad name by bad creative."

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for March 2, 2022

Tony Schiavone and Tony Khan are in the ring to start tonight's show. Tony Khan thanks everyone for their support during the pandemic, then says tonight is a big night and this week is a big week. He then says that three years ago, AEW was started out in the Daily's Place parking lot, and that 17 years before that, Ring of Honor was formed. He says he has been a long time ROH fan, and that he just became the new owner of Ring of Honor. He says that Ring of Honor started with an era of honor, then mentioned that both men in ROH's first show's main event did not win that night. Those men were Christopher Daniels and Bryan Danielson, and they face off tonight.



"The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson beats "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels after countering the Best Moonsault Ever into a triangle sleeper and Daniels passes out following elbows to the head. (The referee for this match, Paul Turner, was the referee for Ring of Honor's first main event between Daniels and Danielson twenty years ago.) After the match, Danielson says that twenty years after that Ring of Honor main event, they were in the main event tonight. He says that they started and ended matches with handshakes, then says he is in AEW, not ROH, and it is time to kick somebody's head in. Danielson proceeds to kick Daniels' head in, then tells Jon Moxley that he will do the same to him at Revolution. Jon Moxley then shows up. Moxley says that he is violent, but Danielson is more violent than ever. He says there are two paths he can walk right now, and the one he takes determines his future. He says that he could get his kicked in at Revolution and fade into obscurity, but he chooses to walk the other path where he refuses to die and that he will walk through fire, bullets and Bryan Danielson to do it. He says that his story is just beginning and that he will write his first chapter in blood at Revolution, then tells Danielson that if he wants to prove him wrong, then he must take his shot. Danielson teases fighting Moxley only to roll out of the ring and leave.



We hear from Darby Allin and Sting. Darby Allin says he is not worried about fines and suspensions for anyone who gets involved in the upcoming triple threat tag match, and neither does Darby. Darby says that while they may be teaming with Sammy Guevara at Revolution, it is showtime on Rampage.

Jericho says he is "the big one," and asks Eddie Kingston if he has what it takes to beat him and get over his fear of success. He says that if Eddie can do that, he will shake his hand and have Eddie's utmost respect. Otherwise, he will laught at him and tell him to "GFY." Proud 'n Powerful (Santana and Ortiz) show up and fist bump Jericho, then Jericho asks "Are we good?" Proud 'n Powerful say yes, then Jericho says "I always got your backs."

CM Punk heads to the ring. He says that every morning, he would get up, splash water across his face and ask himself if he was the bad guy. Punk then one usually does not consider themselves the bad guy in their own story, and says he always considered MJF to be the bad guy. He gives MJF credit for baring his soul and sharing some deep thoughts, but he also cannot help but feel he is being gaslit and while he does not believe MJF is lying, he is still questioning his sincerity. Punk mentions a photo of himself with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, then says that for somebody who took his ball and went home, he has not been mad at the world or done horrible things like MJF has done. He mentions how MJF has hurt other people and says "hurt people hurt people," and says that when he showed up, MJF extended his hand but he did not shake it. Punk questions if he has been Dr. Frankenstein, then says there is nothing more impactful that he can say or do besides having a conversation with MJF in the ring in front of the world. MJF shows up, then CM Punk says he has done horrible things in his life and used to be so full of hate like MJF, then says that this hate will eventually burn MJF up. Punk says his respect is earned, not given, then says it is about the eleven-year-old kid who looks up to MJF like MJF looked up to him. He then says he woke up, splashed water on his face, and asked himself if he was the good guy only to answer "I sure am trying." CM Punk extends his hand, and MJF hugs him. Punk hugs him back, then MJF kicks him in the groin and hits him with the Heatseeker. He then reveals a T-Shirt with his photo with CM Punk on it. Shawn Spears and Wardlow show up with a dog collar, then hand him the Dynamite Diamond Ring. MJF puts the ring on and knocks Punk out with it before continuing to pound on Punk until security show up. MJF then cuts a promo similar to Punk's "I'm a snake" promo from Ring of Honor - the same promo that CM Punk cut when he turned heel in that promotion - and tells him that at Revolution that he is the devil himself. As Shawn Spears chokes out Punk with the dog collar, Darby Allin and Sting show up and chase MJF and Spears away.

Brody King says society shuns violence while the House embraces it, and Buddy Matthews shows up and says they seek the truth. Buddy then says the truth is that they are the House and the House always in.

Backstage, Shawn Spears and MJF let Wardlow know that if he wins the Face of the Revolution Ladder Match, he can keep the AEW title. As MJF says "Like you're going to win it anyway," Wardlow says it is because he is too busy helping him win. MJF goes up to Wardlow and slaps him, telling him not to mistake his benevolence for weakness and that he works for him, not AEW, or else he and his family will be out on the street.

Adam Cole and ReDragon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) beat "Hangman" Adam Page and The Dark Order (John Silver and Alex Reynolds).

Kyle O'Reilly shows up to start the show. He says that the ROH World Championship has proven time and again that ROH has the best wrestling on the planet and that it proves that he is the planet's best wrestler. He plans to defend the title with honor and integrity like past champions have done. He calls Final Battle a moment he will never forget and will never have taken away from him, then Adam Cole shows up saying that Kyle O'Reilly should be apologizing for the travesty that he says he caused, rather than celebrating, as the match with changed to no-disqualification with chains, tables and thumbtacks. He calls O'Reilly a joke of a champion, and calls his victory a fluke. Suddenly, Dalton Castle shows up, congratulates Kyle O'Reilly, then mentions that "this peacock has been left out of the competition" as he is a very dangerous man in the ring and that he pinned Cole while he was still ROH World Champion. Dalton Castle then declares himself next in line for the title, then Bobby Fish shows up. Fish says that O'Reilly has made good on every promise he made concerning Cole and the World title, and that he has a title shot coming his way due to being the 2016 Survival of the Fittest winner. Cole says he could care less what Fish or Castle think, and says O'Reilly's reign will not last much longer as he will become the next three-time ROH World Champion. O'Reilly tells Cole that as long as there is a breath of air in his lungs, he will defend the title to the very end, and if anyone wants to take the title from him, good luck.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for April 2, 2016

Thanks to Voices of Wrestling for the recap, because I was totally unable to watch it this week due to WrestleMania being seven hours long and burning me out.

Before the opening match, Jay Lethal says that Donovan Dijak has gotten his attention after Dijak broke Truth Martini's neck. Lethal feels Dijak doesn’t deserve a shot at the world title, and that Dijak shouldn’t even be in Ring of Honor. He says it was Truth's idea to bring Dijak into The House of Truth after Dijak won the 2015 Top Prospect Tournament. Lethal says that he’s now going to do things his way, and that he’s coming for Dijak.

reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) beat "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada and Gedo.

The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) talk about how War Machine (Hanson and Rowe) has never beaten them, and how they can’t claim to be the world's best tag team until they do. The Briscoes haven’t held the tag titles in more than three years, and that War Machine aren’t the only ones with something to prove.

Adam Cole beats KUSHIDA.

Dalton Castle says that whenever he sees someone, he thinks about how to fight them. With "The Last Real Man" Silas Young, however, it's more of a matter of what to fight him with. He considers bringing a colander so he can fill Young's pants up with bring shrimp and throwing him in a tank with a narwhal. Next week...he's getting weird.

The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian).

Before the fifth match, The Addiction attack The Young Bucks from behind, and after the match, they attack The Young Bucks again in revenge of being beaten fairly quickly, and land Celebrity Rehab on one of the Bucks.

Mr. Wrestling III gets in the ring, and Whitmer demands he take off his mask and reveal he is Corino. Mr. Wrestling III insists he is not Steve Corino, and says he knows Corino, too. He says that Corino knows someone who can take him down, and tells Whitmer, Page and Colby Corino to get out of here while they still can.

"The Last Real Man" Silas Young shows up and grabs the microphone. He describes what happened to him at Final Battle as "a disappointment" after all he did to make Dalton Castle's Boys into men.

The Boys almost join Castle in the ring, but suddenly elect to stay with Young, much to Castle's surprise.

Chris Sabin is in the ring. He is angered that someone has stolen the Knights of the Rising Dawn gimmick, cost "The Almighty" Chris Sabin and Frankie Kazarian the ROH World Tag Team Championships as well as the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship and generally show up when he's not around and do his own moves. Sabin insists this man is not him, and calls the mystery man out, and decides to hijacki the show until he shows up. Suddenly, the masked man shows up, unmasks and reveals himself to be...Alex Shelley, Sabin's former teammate in the Motor City Machine Guns. An understandably betrayed Sabin walks out of the ring.

Lethal gets mad, and asks Roddy what he really wants, which is one more match. Lethal doesn't want to do that, as he's already beaten him twice and will beat him again. Nigel McGuiness jumps into the ring and tells Roddy he can't get another title shot as AJ Styles is #1 contender for the ROH Championship. However, there's no #1 contender for the World Television Championship, so he makes Roddy the #1 contender for the title, much to the chagrin of Martini and Lethal.

reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) and "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin beat The Kingdom (Adam Cole, Michael Bennett, Matt Taven). After the match, The Kingdom attack reDRagon and Elgin, but this just makes O'Reilly mad enough to challenge Adam Cole to a match right now, and tells Nigel McGuinness to make it official.
