AEW All-Atlantic Championship: Orange Cassidy (c) vs. Jay Lethal
Orange Cassidy kicks Dynamite off again with his All-Atlantic Championship title defense. Cassidy starts off hot, they go to the outside, the challenger shoves him into the ring steps, and repeatedly drives his leg into the ringpost.
Back in the ring, Jay Lethal grounds him and takes control. Lethal immediately begins working on Cassidy’s leg as we go to the commercial break…
Back from the break, Lethal is still in control, softening up the champion for the figure-four leg lock. Lethal is getting heat on Cassidy, and the champ finally breaks free with a brainbuster.
We see an intense back-and forth exchange before Cassidy manages to land the Orange Punch at last! 1-2-3! That is it!
Result: Orange Cassidy retains the All-Atlantic Championship
As Jay Lethal exits ringside, Jeff Jarrett shows up behind the All-Atlantic Champion and lands a thunderous guitar shot to his back, followed by his finishing maneuver.
******************
Backstage, Renee Moxley Good is standing by with Powerhouse Hobbs. We learn that the TNT Championship belt was stolen from Wardlow last night. Nevertheless, Hobbs issues a warning to the new champion.
“Another TNT Championship belt? What’s that, the 10th time now?”
******************
Ricky Starks is out next. In response to recent questions by fans over what’s next for him, Starks says he is not sure. Blackout. Bullet Clun logo on the titantron, there’s some music playing as well…
JUICE ROBINSON! Juice Robinson is back in All Elite Wrestling, attacking the former FTW Champion from behind!
******************
In a backstage segment, Wardlow challenges Hobbs to make the main event ‘Last Man Standing.’
“Another stipulation match? What’s that, the 20th time this week? Didn’t we just see a Texas Deathmatch, that was not really a Texas Deathmatch and had made-up rules, essentially just being a hybrid Submission/Last Man Standing match? GAWWDD!!”
******************
Skye Blue vs. Ruby Soho
Out next is Renee Moxley Good, and she welcomes to the ring Ruby Soho. Explaining her heel turn to the fans, she does the usual ‘you forced me to do this’ BS that the fans never buy. She cuts a promo on Skye Blue and calls her out.
Skye Blue is out, and the match shortly gets underway. After some back-and-forth, Ruby picks up the victory after hitting the Destination Unknown.
Result: Ruby Soho defeats Skye Blue
Post-match, Saraya and Toni Storm come out to beatdown Blue. Willow Nightingale comes out to make the save and talk some sense into Ruby, but she gets taken down as well. The Outsiders stands tall.
******************
Standing by with ‘Hangman’ backstage for her tenth interview of the night… Renee Moxley Good! Hangman apologizes to Renee for what she had to see last night.
“GODDAMN! Renee is a consummate professional for this.”
Page says after Revolution, he is done with Moxley and issues a warning to the AEW locker room. He apologizes to Renee again as the interview draws to a close.
“These two have some chemistry! I believe Page & Mox are tied 2-2. Let’s see a rubber match with Renee Paquette in a shark cage at Double or Nothing.”
******************
Back from the break, Tony Schiavone is in the ring and welcomes Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler – FTR!! FTR receives a standing ovation with FTR! FTR! chants.
“Finally, some real stars on the show!”
FTR pays tribute to Jay Briscoe and issue a challenge to The Gunns for the AEW World Tag Team Championships. Now that’s a promo!!
******************
Backstage, Renee Moxley Good is standing by with TBS Champion Jade Cargill. She cuts a typical, awful, Jade Cargill promo. She issues an open challenge for AEW Dynamite in Winnipeg.
******************
Jericho Appreciation Society vs. Top Flight & AR Fox
Top Flight & AR Fox start off hot before a distraction from ‘Cool Hand Luke’ allows JAS to gain control as we head to the commercial break…
Back from the break, JAS is still in control. Top Flight & AR Fox mount a comeback, albeit short-lived, as a cheap shot by Jake Hager is enough for Chris Jericho to capitalize and land the Judas Effect for the 1-2-3!
Result: The Jericho Appreciation Society wins
After the match, ‘Cool Hand Luke’ and ‘Daddy Magic Mac’ cut their usual goofy promos. Hey! Tonight’s JAS’s one-year anniversary.
Jericho takes over and calls out House of Black, challenging them for the AEW World Trios Championships. He mocks their entrance. Blackout! Out comes The Elite.
Kenny Omega and Chris Jericho trades some verbal barbs, before Don Fallus starts taking digs at The Ocho.
Another blackout! Appearing on the screens, Malakai Black has a cryptic message. Suddenly, the lights come on House of Black is out on the entrance ramp, standing between The Elite on the stage and JAS in the ring.
Another Blackout! House of Black disappears.
“I never really got the blackout deal, but doing five blackouts a week is inexcusable. Who is producing these segments? This is really bad…”
******************
Tony Khan appears for an announcement and confirms Orange Cassidy’s match against Jeff Jarrett next week. Also, the All-Atlantic Championship will now be called the AEW International Championship.
“Which, I did call for myself when the title was introduced itself. Except it’s just two guys from the U.S. competing for the belt in the U.S. every week, except for next week in Canada. Anyway…”
******************
We see a brilliant Bryan Danielson video-package! He talks about MJF being right about him not being able to play with his kids. He ends with “”It’s time for me to go home!” What that means is anyone’s guess…’
******************
Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli vs. Alex Reynolds & John Silver
The Blackpool Combat Club is dominating as we go the commercial. Back from the break, BCC is still in control.
John Silver mounts a short-lived comeback and gets a near-fall on Jon Moxley before Moxley regains control and forces a tap-out with the Bulldog Choke.
Result: Blackpool Combat Club defeats Dark Order
Moxley is not letting go of the Bulldog Choke… The rest of the Dark Order comes out for the save but the BCC is beating them down.
Out comes Adam Page! Moxley, Castagnoli & Yuta layeth the beatdown on The Cowboy to end the segment.
“Told ya! There’s a rubber match coming up… I’m so tired of this feud.”
******************
Backstage, actually let me rephrase this… standing by with The Acclaimed, the main character of AEW Dynamite, Renee Moxley Good.
“Hey, guess what, someone just interrupted them!!!
‘Cool Hand Luke’ & ‘Daddy Magic Mac’ start to mock Caster & Bowens before thy fire back and say, “We’re on TV more than you guys, leave us alone!” Renee’s laughing.
“I swear, Renee Moxley Good could say the same thing to anyone on this roster. And how is she laughing like that after what her husband just did in the ring? Nevertheless, let’s head to the main event of this godforsaken episode of Dynamite…”
******************
TNT Championship: Wardlow defends against Powerhouse Hobbs
Wardlow and Powerhouse Hobbs are brawling in the back. The match gets underway… There’s all sorts of spots – a suplex on the roof of a car, a trash can spot, an oil barrel, a steel chair.
The action spills to ringside. Hobbs and Wardlow finally make their way to the ring. Wardlow no-sells a powerbomb. Follows up with an F10 of his own.
Hobbs retaliates with three back-to-back spinebusters. Wardlow hits a Swanton Bomb through a table on Hobbs. He continues his assault with a Powerbomb Symphony on the ramp.
Wardlow looks to for another Powerbomb Symphony near the announce desk, but QT Marshall hits the champion with a chair shot. There’s the answer to the critically acclaimed ‘QTV’ mystery.
He unloads on Wardlow with a steel chair before hitting a low blow. Hobbs and QT powerbomb the TNT Champion through a table.
Wardlow fails to answer the 10-count. NEW CHAMPION!
Result: Powerhouse Hobbs Defeats Wardlow to win the TNT Championship
