Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for November 19, 2025

Before the next match starts, Ricochet roots for the Philadelphia Eagles before making fun of the state of Massachusetts for going so long without a Super Bowl, saying the only good thing to come out it is his beautiful wife. He also states that he will become the inaugural AEW National Champion and that the fans will give him the respect he deserves, for he has earned it, and that Lashley will do the same, for AEW would not be a company without him. Ricochet then proclaims that nobody will stop him on his quest for gold, and that he will run through everybody's facorite wrestlers to become champion and that there is nothing anybody can do about it. Bobby Lashley then grabs Ricochet and throws him over the top rope with a Uranage as Ricochet screams into the microphone, then hits Bishop Kaun with a clothesline before pouncing Toa Liona over the barricade before he can hit Lashley with a chair.

Callis then says that he would hate to see happen to The Young Bucks what happened to Kenny Omega, who then shows up with a metal folding chair and takes out Rocky Romero and Mark Davis. As Omega attacks Alexander, The Young Bucks shove Omega away from him. Alexander puts Omega in the ankle lock before Don Callis tells him to let go and has The Young Bucks hit Omega with the BTE-Trigger instead.

Backstage, we hear from Kenny Omega and Jurassic Express ("Jungle" Jack Perry and Luchasaurus).

We hear from PAC, who says that he has done some soul searching and that he owes Darby Allin an apology.

PAC says this is no skin off his ballsack, and challenges Darby to a match at Full Gear. PAC says that while Darby has a chance at retribution, he has a chance to prove that Darby does not belong in the same conversation, much less the same league, as a competitor like him. He tells Darby to think about it, and says that he will be waiting for his response.





Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Mark Davis and "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher.

Skye Blue and Julia Hart show up and attack Toni, and Wheeler Yuta shows up to speak to Kris Statlander only for Marina Shafir to stand between them.

We hear from Big Bill and "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith. Big Bill says he will have a match with Eddie Kingston at All Out, but he will not believe it until Eddie show up, which he does not believe Eddie will do after sitting at home for 16 months while he has been on the best run of his life. He says that there are people who think Big Bill does not belong in the same ring as Eddie Kingston, but people will find out the opposite is true, and if Eddie shows up, he will be exposed as the fraud he has always known him to be.

In footage from earlier today, Bryan Danielson interviews Darby Allin. Darby says he climbed Mount Everest because he felt like he was living through someone else and wanted to show what he was capable of. He says that there is no way to politick to the top of the world, and there is no way to fly up to the top. He also thought he would die on Mount Everest after seeing bodies on the way up. He also talks about how he would never turn his back on family, including his uncle who died from drunk driving as well as Sting. Darby says he does not know if he is ready for All Out, then tells Danielson to give him his word not to get involved in his match. Darby also blames himself for what happened to Danielson, even though Danielson says it is not his fault before giving his word, saying his word means much to Darby as Darby's means to him. He then tells him to make sure of one thing and whispers something to him, and Darby says Danielson has his word on the way out.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for September 10, 2025

"The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson is now a member of the commentary team. Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"Hangman" Adam Page beats "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander after fending off Lance Archer and Rocky "Azucar" Romero as Don Callis distracts the referee. After the match, Hangman says he did not spill a gallon of his blood to win the AEW World Championship only to have MJF change the stipulations of his matches and have every opponent have someone like Don Callis with them. He says the most important word of "All Elite Wrestling" is "wrestling," which is what he plans to do as AEW World Champion. Suddenly, Don Callis returns with "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher. Fletcher says Hangman's sentiment is lovely, but says it does not matter, for while Hangman holds the title, The Don Callis Family runs AEW. He also mentions that he is awaiting an answer to his proposal. Hangman says Fletcher is lucky after what he did last week, and says that if he wants to speak to him, then he needs to get in the ring and look him in the eyes as he does it. Callis allows Fletcher to enter the ring, and Hangman tells Fletcher that he sees potential in him, yet he cannot put on his socks. He also admits that above all else, he sees himself six years ago standing across the ring from Chris Jericho hoping to be World Champion, but after last week, he is not ready. Fletcher says he has heard this all before and that he decides when his prime is, saying it begins right now and will continue for as long as he pleases. He says he is ready to be a World Champion right now. Hangman tells Fletcher that if he truly wants this, he will give him a shot at the AEW World Championship at All Out. At the same time, he must do it himself and earn it, leave Don Callis behind, and find some socks. Fletcher says he does not need anyone to beat him, and while it will be man-to-man at All Out, he will be leaving with the AEW World Championship and will not fail like Hangman has before.





In backstage footage from Collision, MJF says that he hates Mark Briscoe so much that he dictated that the honeymoon with his newly married wife would not start until Mark Briscoe was dead, and after what he did to Mark, he will accept any stipulation thrown at him.



In backstage footage from earlier today, Renee Paquette interviews The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) in catering. The Young Bucks look forward to spending the money for tonight's main event on DoorDashing and casinos. After The Dark Order (Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds, John Silver) refuses to let The Young Bucks sit with them, they run into Brandon Cutler, who tells them to shut up before leaving. Jon Moxley then shows up and clears the table and tells The Young Bucks that nothing has changed, and tells them to show up to win.

Alex Windsor and Riho beat Mercedes Moné and Emi Sakura by submission with a single leg Boston Crab from Riho to Sakura.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Ricochet and Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona). Ricochet says that The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin) are cowards who love to play the numbers game, and proposes that he and MVP handle things in the ring with their seconds in the back before he and Gates of Agony embarrass The Hurt Syndicate one more time.

Stokely Hathaway and FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) head to the ring. Stokely says that their match at All Out is going to be a fight that FTR is going to win. He says that the fans look like "extras from Roseanne" and that none of them get any hoes. Dax Harwood says this could and should have been a dream match, then dares anybody in the crowd to fight him. As FTR mouths off at a fan, they soon jump a cameraman and a member of security, and referees have to run in to restore order.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews The Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin) and mentions Ricochet's "gentleman's agreement." Shelton says that if Ricochet can be trusted to leave his men in the back, then he will face him solo and put him on his back.

Ricochet beats Shelton Benjamin after Shelton takes Ricochet's scissors and rips them in half only for Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona) to get involved, allowing Ricochet to win with a schoolkid pin. After the match, MVP and Bobby Lashley show up and brawl with Gates of Agony, and Shelton superkicks Ricochet. Security rushes in to restore order.



We hear from Hook, who says that he is cool with Samoa Joe and The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, "The Wrestler" Katsuyori Shibata) having his back. He says that his being replaced is what it is, then says it is time to stand on his own...or maybe not.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Don Callis and Kyle Fletcher. Callis says he has such faith in Fletcher and knows he will take the AEW World Championship home. Fletcher says they will have their hands on the AEW World Championship once again.

"Timeless" Toni Storm beats Skye Blue in a Philadelphia Street Fight. After the match, Toni is attacked by Julia Hart and "The Toxic Spider" Thekla before Kris Statlander runs into the ring and fights them. Jamie Hayter runs into the ring to even the numbers game, but inadvertently takes out Statlander. Thekla then hits Toni with a Spear.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Willow Nightingale. Willow says she tries to stand up for the good and says there are those who don't get it and need to be punched in the face, such as Marina Shafir. Harley Cameron shows up with a guitar and wants Willow on her team while also mentioning Willow's former friendship with Kris Statlander. Willow says that she and Statlander will never be friends again, and tells Harley to be careful who she is friends with and to watch her back.

Before the next match, The Young Bucks' (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) entrance and chyron consists of their real names as well as some unflattering pictures of themselves as the original Dynamite theme plays.

The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) and The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castagnoli) beat The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, "The Wrestler" Katsuyori Shibata) and Brodido (Bandido and Brody King) in a $500,000 10-Man Tag Match after The Young Bucks counter the 21-Plex and use the ropes for leverage. After the match, Brodido attack The Young Bucks and take their brawl to the back while The Deather Riders attack The Opps. As this goes on, Darby Allin runs into the ring and beats up Moxley when he is suddenly attacked from behind by Daniel Garcia in a black hoodie. Marina Shafir then allows Daniel Garcia the honor of curb stomping Darby Allin into a metal folding chair while the fans chant "Fuck you, Danny!" At Moxley's behest, Garcia does it a second time before going for a ground and pound on Darby until Moxley and Shafir tell him to stop.

Collision Course - Collision recap for July 6, 2024

MJF heads to the ring to start tonight's show. He says that everyone in the building is "inbred and incredibly stupid," and demands that everyone keeps their mouths shut. MJF calls Daniel Garcia "nothing more than a pawn," then says their match at All In was never going to happen, as he was always going to stab him in the back and break his neck, and says he is a "Make-A-Wish Kid" at best and was trying to grant him his wish even though it was not real and never answered. He then says Daniel Garcia will never wrestle again, much less make it to All In, then says he is here to talk to the fans. He replays his promo from the August 2, 2023 where he talks about his attention deficit disorder as well as his rejection sensitive disorder as well as how he was made fun of as a kid, then says he opened up to the fans and knew that if he did, it would tear his heart if the fans turned on him, and yet the fans did not give a damn. MJF says he did so much for the fans, but the fans repaid him after his friend stabbed him in the back and Samoa Joe took the AEW World Championship by chanting "Thank You Joe" after Worlds End while he was in physical therapy trying to regain movement in his left arm and cast him aside for other wrestlers. MJF says that what he did to Daniel Garcia was personal not between himself and Garcia, but between himself and the fans, and Garcia was just the tip of the iceberg. He says that he will take away everything that the fans love in AEW because everything they love sucks, and because the fans have ruined the company he loves with their "garbage tastes." He says that he will fix this by getting back on top, even though the fans want Will Ospreay (who he calls a "talented hack") and are too delusional to realize that he cannot help the company like he can because he is a child who only cares about putting on good matches and not ticket sales or making money. MJF says the only ratings Ospreay cares about are from "a guy named Meltzer" while the ratings he cares about are from "a guy named Nielsen." He then proposes that he and Ospreay "pop a number right here, right now" and threatens to get medieval on him, saying that he will sacrifice him like "the billy goat" that he claims to be. Will Ospreay's music hits, but Ospreay fails to show, and MJF grins before saying that Ospreay is not coming because he is a "two-faced, fickle, gutless coward" just like the fans.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews The Conglomeration (Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy, Kyle O'Reilly). O'Reilly admits they are "bummed out" after Forbidden Door, but Mark Briscoe says he is not despite, then says the word of the day is "epiphany" and that he had anepiphany that failure is a figment of one's imagination and nothing but a stepping stone to the throne. He says they are in the shadow of one of the most important cities in wrestling history - Memphis, Tennessee - and that they are about to bring a "historical ass whupping" to The Iron Savages (Boulder, Bronson, Jacked Jameson). Briscoe heads to the ring, and O'Reilly says Mark Briscoe knows how to pull a guy out of a dark abyss. Orange says "I don't care."

Before the next match, Jacked Jameson says everyone loves The Conglomeration (Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy, Kyle O'Reilly) because they represent them, but they do not stand a chance. He says that Mark Briscoe is called "The Sussex County Chicken" because his bones are brittle, and Kyle O'Reilly and Orange Cassidy look like they belong on the bottom of an evolutionary chart. Shortly after this, Undisputed Kingdom (Roderick Strong, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett) guests on commentary.

The Conglomeration (Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy, Kyle O'Reilly) beat The Iron Savages (Boulder, Bronson, Jacked Jameson) in a trios match. After the match, Undisputed Kingdom (Roderick Strong, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett) display their disapproval of Kyle O'Reilly being part of The Conglomeration.



We hear from "Scapegoat" Jack Perry, who says that the true cost of anything is what you are willing to sacrifice for it. He says that a long time ago, he was the first-ever challenger to the first-ever TNT Champion, but he was not ready yet because he did not realize how great that cost would be. Perry says that as of tonight, he is paid in full, and he wants to give that opportunity to sacrifice everything and take the TNT Championship from him to somebody else, because if they do not, he will sacrifice them. As he speaks, we only see his reflection in the center plate of the TNT Championship.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews "Hangman" Adam Page. Adam Page says that his indefinite suspension has been ended out of convenience - not his, but The Elite's (Nicholas Jackson, Matthew Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, "Scapegoat" Jack Perry) - and that what was happening to him and his family did not matter to them at all, for at the moment that they thought that they could use him, they brought him back. He then says that even "he" knows that he is really here to burn through the rest of the men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, head to All In and right a wrong that should have been righted a long time ago, and if it takes his last breath on Earth, he will right that wrong and he will burn "his" world to the ground. He then leaves when "Switchblade" Jay White and his inability to defeat him is mentioned.

"Timeless" Toni Storm beats Trish Adora.



We see a video package for Willow Nightingale vs. Mariah May in the finals of the women's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament next week on Dynamite.

We hear from The Patriarchy (Christian Cage, "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne, Killswitch, Mama Wayne). Christian says that last week, many people were left in awe when "Switchbalde" Jay White confronted The Patriarchy with his words and he seemingly let Jay White get away with it. Christian tells Jay White that he made it personal, as he promised his family the gift of the United Trios Championships for their loyalty to him over the past year, and says that The Bang Bang Gang (Jay White, "Rock Hard' Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn) has been on such a run with the titles that he had to Google them to find out who they were. He says that Jay White's head is not in the game, or else he would not have entered the men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. Christian calls the tournament Jay White's "exit strategy" and says that he cannot blame him as he has surrounded him with a child and "genetic waste." Christian says he will do Jay White a favor and take the Unitied Trios Championships off his hands to revive them and make them the most important titles on AEW on the road to the AEW World Championship, and that it will make Tony Khan and the AEW fanbase happy, as the fans are tired of seeing The Bang Bang Gang consistently tread water while simultaneously getting the Jay White they thought they would get when he signed to the company. All of a sudden, Christian sees Kip Sabian, who says that he recently lost his father and that he meant no disrespect being near camera shot. Christian says he is sure that his father was a loser and that the apple does not fall far from the tree, then tells Kip Sabian that his day is about to get a whole lot worse as he sics Killswitch on him on the way out.



"Scapegoat" Jack Perry's challenger for the TNT Championship is Marko Stunt, who has not been seen in AEW in some time.

"Scapegoat" Jack Perry retains the TNT Championship against Marko Stunt.



We hear from The House of Black (Malakai Black and Brody King). Malakai Black says they are asked about how they feel regarding Buddy Matthews, but they do not feel anything, as they do not sweat out their fevers like others do. He says that revenge is not a straight line and is more of an imbalanced scale waiting to be tipped back into perfect balance, as well as a shadow hiding in the dark waiting to be put back into the light. Brody King says that they feel nothing, Christian Cage will feel everything.

We see a video package for "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs. the winner of "Switchblade" Jay White vs. "Hangman" Adam Page in the finals of the men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.

Claudio Castagnoli beats The Beast Mortos.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard. Menard says that he now has a concussion after earlier this week, and that Daniel Garcia is at home in Buffalo, New York, and while he has lost all strength in the left side of his body, he will make a full recovery and eventually get his hands on MJF when he is cleared, and when that happened, he will get "Red Death."

We see someone jumping into a portal.

We hear from Serena Deeb, who says that she is glad that Riho is back, and that people still talk about their match from Double or Nothing 2021. She says that if Riho wants a rematch, that is fine, but she is not the same person from 2021 and has evolved into the best in-ring wrestler in the women's division.

Riho beats Lady Frost with a new Kofi Kingston-esque SOS-style called the Runhei.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty, Anthony Ogogo), Top Flight (Darius and Dante Martin) and Action Andretti. Shane Taylor says that his team have given Top Flight and Andretti a pass and that they should have whupped their asses a few weeks ago for getting in their business had they not been playing with ladders, but Action Andretti says the wait is over and they will settle things on Rampage.

She says that she and the fans will be creating so many moments together, as the fans are the reason why she is here. Mercedes says that if the fans only knew how much tonight and how much wrestling means to her, as wrestling has changed and it has changed her life, giving her hopes, a place to dream and a place to believe she could do this one day. She says her dreams, which started when she was only ten, let her lead a women's revolution and main event a pay-per-view in tonight's venue. She also talks about how she had to drop out at thirteen to take care of her brother Joshua. Mercedes then mentions how her dreams took her to the New England-area independent wrestling company Chaotic Wrestling at eighteen and on the road to becoming one of the greatest of all time, and says that if she can do it, the fans can, too. She then says she is here in AEW because she both wants and needs to be here, as it is the only place where this revolution can be global, and that she and the fans will make that happen.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Samoa Joe. Samoa Joe says tonight feels a little different, but Wardlow does not, as he sent forth by lesser men for crimes that he may or may not have committed. He says that he has not forgotten their last match and what debts need to be paid, and that Wardlow is far overdue. Joe says he will take no quarter and that he does not lose champonships "in the Garden."

We hear from Adam Cole, who reads from a book. Adam Cole says that once upon a time, there was a warrior called Wardlow who was deceived and lied to, and guarded by an evil man and true devil named MJF, and his destiny was to be the king he always could be. He says that Wardlow has gold, but he needed a kingdom who understood him, and now that Wardlow has that kingdom, the AEW World Championship will be brought to the kingdom and the kingdom will remain whole.

Tony Schiavone interviews Will Ospreay in the ring. Ospreay says that his match with "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson means so much to him, as he has always wanted to do what Danielson has done throughout his career, as he always left it in the ring for the fans. He says that he is glad that Danielson is a fan of his work and has asked him to prove that he is the best in the world, and after his match with Kenny Omega, everyone was talking about the Tiger Driver '91. He says that beating Omega was worth it even as blood streamed from his head, and while he respects Danielson, their match means a lot to him and the fans, as he is not only here to "restore the feeling," he is the feeling. Ospreay says their match will remind the fans what All Elite Wrestling is, as the best in the world meets the best of the 21st century and only one will come out the winner. He says he can have respect for his opponent, when he is in the ring, it is his life or theirs, and he does not plan on dying.

Max Caster and Anthony Bowens help Darby out of the ring as "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn talks sense into Jay White, takes the baseball bat away from him and turns around only for Jay White to smack him with a metal folding chair. Caster and Bowens run back into the ring only to be laid out by The Gunns, who use the Ring of Honor World Six-Man Tag belts as weapons before Jay White hits Billy Gunn with Blade Runner. The Gunns and Jay White then get Darby Allin back in the ring, wrap the chair around Darby's left leg and smash the baseball bat into the chair to injure Darby.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for March 6, 2024

Tony Schiavone interviews Swerve Strickland in the ring to start tonight's show. When asked what is next for him, he asks what his house is without the keys, especially when he came up short at Revolution, and brings back his vow that he would give his all and become AEW World Champion when he signed his AEW contract. Swerve thinks is karma for some of his earlier actions in AEW and feels that he has some doubt running through his head that he should settle for being "a role player," and the fans chant "You deserve it!" He says that something about Sunday felt different and it felt like people were truly rooting for him for the first time and wanted him to win and make history, even coming in from his home state of Washington to see it happen. Swerve says that for this, he will not let the fans down. He says nothing changes from this point on, and warns Samoa Joe that he is coming for him. Suddenly, Samoa Joe shows up and Swerve is "talking funny" for somebody who just got beat down and is making promises to the fans he will never keep. Joe tells Swerve that his house exists in his world, and says that instead of disappointing people about how he is almost a champion, he decided to show up and let the fans gaze upon an actual world champion. As Joe spins around, Swerve warns Joe not to turn his back on him and reminds him that he has yet to beat him, then dares Joe to put the world title on the line tonight before deciding they might as well do this right now. Suddenly, Undisputed Kingdom (Adam Cole, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett, Roderick Strong, Wardlow) shows up, and Adam Cole says the only story worth talking about after Revolution is them now that Roderick Strong is International Champion and Taven and Bennett are still ROH World Tag Team Champions. Adam Cole then says Wardlow will challenge for and win the AEW World Championship and put it in its rightful place. Swerve laughs and reminds Adam Cole lost at every opportunity he had at the world title and laughs at his "Dr. Claw" management role before saying that if he needs more clients, he has Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D.'s number. Cole then proposes that Undisputed Kingdom might as well fight Joe and Swerve. Swerve is for it, but Cole says Swerve does not make the rules. Suddenly, Tony Schavione gets word from Tony Khan that the match is official and if happening now.

Samoa Joe and Swerve Strickland beat Undisputed Kingdom (Matt Taven and Mike Bennett) with Swerve doing all the work. After the match, Wardlow is seen approaching the ring, and Joe sneaks up on Swerve from behind and puts him down with a sleeper while looking dead at Wardlow.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Hook. Chris Jericho suddenly walks up and talks about how his first ECW opponent was Hook's father, Taz, who dumped him on his head.

Killswitch beats "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard. After the match, Killswitch goes for a choke slam, but Daniel Garcia runs into the right and fights him. "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne gets in the ring to fight Garcia, and that allows Killswitch to down Garcia with a big boot so that Wayne can hit Wayne's World. As The Patriachy (Christian Cage, Killswitch, "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne, Mother Wayne) celebrates on the ramp, Adam Copeland suddenly shows up from behind and chokes Nick Wayne out. Mother Wayne goes for a low blow, but Copeland catches it and chases Christian Cage through the crowd. Christian Cage runs out of the building, steals an SUV, and drives off. Copeland says this has to end where it started, and in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on March 20th, they will face off for the TNT Championship in an "I Quit" Match.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Kyle O'Reilly. O'Reilly says that he did not think he would ever wrestle again, and to be cleared and get a second chance at what he's been good at, he has been grateful. He says he has nothing but love for Undisputed Kingdom (Adam Cole, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett, Roderick Strong, Wardlow), but he has fallen so far down the mountain he has no idea what path to take, and that he has to do things on his own.

Tony Schiavone interviews The Young Bucks (Nicholas and Matthew Jackson) in the ring. Nicholas yanks the microphone from Tony Schiavone's microphone and boots him out of the ring as soon as he brings up their loss as Revolution before declaring that Sting and Darby Allin cheated. After declaring that they are still EVPs and that they have ended Sting's career, Nicholas states they will be in the upcoming tag team tournament to take back the tag team titles. Matthew then says that there is some housecleaning to be done, and to show that there is no favoritism in the locker room, they have no choice but to suspend "Hangman" Adam Page from The Elite indefinitely without pay for his actions at Revolution. Matthew also brings up Kenny Omega, saying that Omega has failed to make his dates for no reason and that they have no choice but to fire him. As Matthew is about to make another announcement, Eddie Kingston shows up and dares The Young Bucks to fire him for talking crap about him.

Tony Schavione interviews Darby Allin in the ring. When asked about what is next for him, Darby talks about how things have changed for him in five years and that he has given Sting the closer to his career that he deserves. He says that he has "Switchblade" Jay White at Big Business before going to climb Mount Everest later this month, and thanks the fans and AEW for giving him this dream in case he does not come back alive. He says that if next week is his last match, so be it, then congratulates the next team to win the AEW World Tag Team Championships, as he will never be able to replace Sting. Suddenly, Bullet Club Gold shows up. Jay White says he did not want to interrupt anything, but he says Darby Allin is so weird and elusive that he wanted to congratulate him for winning on Sunday and proving he would sacrifice himself to ensure Sting retired a champion while he still could. He also calls Darby Allin crashing through the glass and leaving Sting to fight by himself "stupid" and that he does not care much about the talk about their match, and that Darby is now "a lost puppy" without Sting. He says this match does not need to happen much like how Darby never had to jump off the ladder into a pane of glass and that nobody would think any less of Darby after all he has been through. Jay White then warns Darby that if he gets in the ring with him, he will encounter more than a few scratches, and instead of a match, they and "Darby Scissorhands" can hang out together backstage. Darby says that Jay White has done so much in Japan only to come to All Elite Wrestling to play with cardboard cutouts, and tells him that if he is so confident in his abilities, he had better come to the ring alone. Darby holds Jay White at bay with Sting's baseball bat, then tells him he will see him at Big Business.

He says this makes him question Kenny and whether or not he can trust Jericho, and Big Bill says they would not be surprised if Jericho turned on him. Omega says even Jericho knows he doesn't trust him, then mentions The Firm and says it was more like "The Flaccid" and "Sawft" after what happened with MJF. Omega then says he is the king of receiving beatdowns and gets one every two weeks, then says they have a tag team title shot down the line and that they could take their titles and put them around his and Jericho's waists.

Starks says he can excuse the name, but not Jericho's outfit, comparing him to a vampire at Hot Topic.

A big band orchestra plays MJF to the stage. MJF celebrates "MJF Day" live in Long Island, New York, which he calls "the most magical place in the world" where it rains pennies form heavens. He then sings "Pennies From Heaven" by Louis Prima, much to the delight of the fans. He then makes his way to the ring, where Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino declares MJF the pride of Long Island and a hometown champion before presenting MJF with the Key to Long Island. He then proclaims April 5th as "MJF Day" in the town of Oyster Bay, then tells MJF that they had the Key to Long Island remade for MJF after it was a little below his standards. Saladino leaves, and says that that this is a serious honor and that some would say he deserves it, unlike "losers" like Sammy Guevara, Darby Allin and "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry, the last of whom he says will have an inbred girlfriend before mentioning his life story. MJF talks about how he grew up with Attention Deficit Disorder and how an unsympathetic teacher named Mrs. Benedict would pounce on him when his concentration lapsed every day, and on the last day of school, she asked him where his mind went during her class. MJF then said "becoming a world champion," and Mrs. Benedict told him that the odds of that happening were "slim to none." He then says that her math was a bit off, because he has his own day and a world championship. He then tells everyone not to be "a stupid bitch" by Mrs. Benedict, and tells all the kids in Long Island who are struggling in school that if they bust their asses, they can be anything they want to be, except him. MJF then takes the AEW World Championship and decides to tease an encore before someone claps cymbals behind him. MJF chews the cymbals player out, then the cymbals player is revealed to be Jungle Boy. Sammy Guevara then makes his way to the ring for the next match.



Sammy Guevara beats Komander. Near the end of the match, Darby Allin is seen watching the match from the rafters. After the match, Tony Schiavone interviews Sammy Guevara as Jungle Boy, MJF and Darby Allin watch from a distance. He says that he wrestles like a real world champion does, unlike MJF, and says that he had MJF beaten in their last encounter until Shawn Spears got involved.He says that if he, Jungle Boy, Darby Allin and MJF were pillars, MJF's side would be built by people he tricked and manipulated on the way to the top. Sammy says he is almost jealous, and that he would hate himself if he was MJF instead of himself. He then says that MJF sold his soul to be a pillar of AEW, and as far as his side goes, he built it brick by brick and put his heart and soul into AEW. Sammy says he is not going anywhere because he loves AEW and it has given him more than he has ever asked for. He then says that he will be damned if "some rich bitch from Long Island" screws it up for some bidding war in 2024.



Hook retains the FTW Championship against "All Ego" Ethan Page after Isiah Kassidy gets on the ring apron to distract the referee so that Matt Hardy can keep Ethan Page from using the FTW Championship as a weapon before blasting Ethan Page with it. Afterwards, Hook fist bumps Matt Hardy.

Tony Khan announces that five years ago, before AEW's founding, The Young Bucks, Cody Rhodes and Kenny Omega put on a show called "All In," and five years later, AEW will be in London, England for the very first AEW All In. Adam Cole then shows up and announces that on August 27th, All In will be coming to Wembley Stadium, and that they will celebrate 100 years of Wembley Stadium and Warner Bros.

The Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta) quickly beat three unnamed opponents in a trios match. (The three opponents are Alvin Alvarez, Brother Greatness and Aaron Rourke.) After the match, "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson says that he was at home with his family, whom he loves as much as The Blackpool Combat Club and pro wrestling, then says their opponents look like "impotent amateurs" and that they are the only professional wrestlers in the building tonight. Suddenly, "Hangman" Adam Page heads to the ring as Danielson calls him "another amateur," and he fights The Blackpool Combat Club only to be immediately outnumbered.Danielson screams that The Blackpool Combat Club are professionals and that he loves them while Adam Page is an amateur who does not have anyone who loves him, and that nobody will come out to save him because they do not love him and do not even know what love is. He then says that he knows what love is and that he has taught his children a few things about how to fix one's house as he produces a screwdriver, and says that the house that is AEW needs to be "fixed up from all these amateurs." Danielson then gauges the screwdriver into Page's face before once again declaring him an amateur and The Blackpool Combat Club the only real professional wrestlers in the building, in AEW, and all of America.



Before the next match, The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) come out to "Many Men (Wish Death)" by 50 Cent.

He says Keith Lee won the battle, but he will win the war, because he is a cannibal and all he sees is food.

Mark Briscoe is in the ring. He says he is here representing the greatest tag team in all of time and space, but it is time to move forward with the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championships.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for March 1, 2023

Orange Cassidy retains the AEW All-Atlantic Championship against Big Bill following two Orange Punches and a third from the top rope.



In footage from after last week's Dynamite, Jon Moxley says last week's match tasted like victory as well as life, as his life is about living to the fullest, for he is a sick man and he likes this. He says this is nothing to be proud of or aspire to, and that he lives for this. He says he is not the kind of guy to go in a dark alley with, as only one guy is coming out and it is him. He says he tried to leave it alone after they both beat each other, but Adam Page was praised while he got nothing. As he continues to bleed on the stairwell, Moxley says he will leave no doubt, and while Page is a great wrestler and a great man, he is not the same animal as him. He says there is only room for one animal like him in AEW, and he will die to protect what is his.



The Elite (Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson) head to the ring, but the lights soon go out, and The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews) are seen behind them when they come back on. The lights go out a second time, and The House of Black attack The Elite. They then hold the trios titles when the lights come on again as The Elite are left laying on the floor.

Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews Best Friends (Chuck Taylor, Trent Beretta, Orange Cassidy, Danhausen). Chuck Taylor and Trent Beretta are out of the Casino Tag Team Battle Royal, but Danhausen says he and Orange Cassidy are in. When asked if he is up to it, Orange says "I don't care."

Chris Jericho beats "Pretty" Peter Avalon. After the match, Chris Jericho grabs his baseball bat and nails Peter Avalon in the forehead with it before hammering him with it. Suddenly, "Absolute" Ricky Starks runs in and watches his back on the way before running Jericho out of the ring. Jericho says that on Sunday, he will beat the hell out of him one-on-one, and that just because The Jericho Appreciation Society are barred from ringside that night does not mean they are here tonight. Jake Hager and Daniel Garcia gang up on Starks and tear his clothes as they attack him, then Jericho hits Starks with the Judas Effect.

We hear from "Hangman" Adam Page. He says that his Texas Death Match with Jon Moxley is all he has left to lose, as Moxley cannot take his friends, his memory, the feeling in the tips of his fingers or his heart. Instead, he will take everything from Moxley. He says he will take Moxley's spot at the table and his bloodlust, and while he is not the same animal as Moxley as he hates violence to his score, he will be the most violent person Moxley has ever seen as it is what he must due to beat him. Page says that after Sunday, Moxley will never be the same.



Renee Paquette interviews Christian Cage in the ring. Christian says that for the better part of the last six month, he has embarrassed "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry and that he was done with him until Jungle Boy stated that he would win a singles championship in 2023. He says that this will happen "over [his] dead body," as he will win a singles title in 2023 this year and that is a fact. He then wants to know if Jungle Boy wants to win a title or beat somebody for their title, as he hesitated during the Con-Chair-To attempt last week. After Christian brags that he responded by taking advantage of that hesitation by leaving Jungle Boy lying "in [his] own blood and piss," he says that his problem with Jungle Boy and his whole generation is that they treat his business like a video game. He says that Jungle Boy is "one-in-a-million" while he is "one of one," and while Jungle Boy treats his business like a video game, he treats it like an ATM and he wants to bleed it dry. Christian then challenges Jungle Boy not to a wrestling match, but a fight, at Revolution, and if Jungle Boy shows up, he is just his father's son, as like his father, he is a no-talent hack whose looks will get him through life. He says that Jungle Boy does not have an ounce of what it takes like he does, then the lights go out. The video screen then shows Jungle Boy digging a grave intercut with what has happened between him and Christian as Jungle Boy sheds a tear. We then see a tombstone with the words "Christian Cage" on it. Christian has no words.



Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. and Jamie Hayter. Hayter says she cannot tell if it is sweeter to beat "one bitch or two," and Britt says Saraya can watch two former champions duke it out as she will never be women's champion. Hayter then says that Britt will be at tonight's match and that they will be keeping a watch for Saraya.

We hear from The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews, Julia Hart). Malakai says the greatest enemy is not composed of flesh, but of fear that eats away. He says that on Sunday, The Elite (Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson) have already lost. The House of Black then lays down the trios titles on the ground, then Julia Hart says "See you at Revolution."

Riho beats Toni Storm. After the match, Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter brawl with Toni Storm and Saraya, then Ruby Soho shows up, grabs Saraya and punches her before brawling with Jamie Hayter. Security have to break up the three-way brawl.

Backstage, we hear from Keith Lee and Dustin Rhodes. Keith Lee says this is more than what The Mogul Affiliates have done to them, but to others. Dustin says that darkness has fallen and that this Friday, The Mogul Affiliates will learn that they do not like to play games, for they are "Naturally Limitless."

Best Friends (Orange Cassidy and Danhausen) last eliminate The Butcher and The Blade to win the Casino Tag Team Battle Royal and go on to the four-way tag team match for the AEW World Tag Team Championships at Revolution. After the match, Danhausen and Orange are attacked from behind by Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal as The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) approach the ring, then The Acclaimed rush in and take out Lethal and Jarrett.



We see a video package for "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs. MJF for the AEW World Championship in a 60-minute Iron Man Match at Revolution.

Renee Paquette interviews "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson in the ring. Renee brings up a social media post MJF made back in 2014 when MJF dropped out of college to become a professional wrestler. Danielson talks about how he was forced to retire, and how he said that if you fight for your dreams, your dreams will fight for you. MJF arrives, and Danielson tells MJF to shut up for once in his life and says MJF hates him because he has everything he has yet has done nothing to earn them, much less fight for them, and has taken every shortcut for a world title he has not fought for. Danielson then says that the only thing MJF deserves is his fiancée leaving him, then says MJF has been born with a silver spoon in his mouth while he has fought for everything. He says that before he came here, he had a job that would have paid him for the rest of his life, but he came to AEW because he wanted to fight, and that new dream is to become AEW World Champion, which he is willing to fight for. Danielson tells MJF to come to Revolution to fight with everything he has for 60 full minutes, because if he does not, he is going to get "[his] fucking head kicked in." A stunned MJF silently leaves as the show comes to an end.
