Kenny Omega went from catering to the children's demographic to laying down a death-match challenge in the same episode of AEW Dynamite.

Jon Moxley teamed up with Lance Archer and Fenix against Eddie Kingston, The Butcher, and The Blade. This was the main event of the night. After a back-and-forth battle, Moxley's team emerged as the winners.

It wasn't too long after the match when The Good Brothers entered the ring to attack Moxley. Kenny Omega also came out and addressed his rematch for the AEW World Championship against Moxley.

To everyone's surprise, Omega advocated for an Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch between the two. The episode ended with Omega and The Good Brothers dominating Moxley.

Anyone who has watched a pro wrestling death-match knows that it won't cater to wrestling fans who get turned off by brutal spots. Props go to AEW for pushing the boundaries of their main storyline.

If Omega and Moxley's upcoming bout will be anything like their Unsanctioned Lights Out match, then AEW Revolution is sure to be a wild event.
