Tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite had a stacked card with two tag-team tournament matches as well as two title matches. Riho defended the AEW Women's Championship against Dr. Britt Baker while in the main event, Chris Jericho defended the AEW World Championship in a Philadelphia Street Fight against Darby Allin.
Check out all the results from tonight here.
SCU vs The Best Friends
The show was supposed to start with SCU taking on The Best Friends in the AEW Tag Team Championship tournament. As Christopher Daniels and Kazarian made their way down to the ring, the Lucha Bros attacked them from behind. Scorpio Sky came down to drive the Lucha Bros away and was forced to replace Daniels in the match.
The Best Friends were in complete control in the early stages after the match actually began. Trent and Chuckie T worked on Kazarian at ringside early on in the match before the Best Friends hit a double suplex for a near-fall. Even this early on, Scorpio Sky looked pretty worried.
Sky looked in good shape when he came in off the hot-tag before being taken out by a cheap-shot from Chuck Taylor. Taylor went to hit a dive onto Scorpio Sky but ended up taking out his own partner instead.
Scorpio Sky used the opening to try and pin Trent who kicked out. The Best Friends made a brief comeback, with Trent taking out Sky with a Scorpio Sky with a knee strike. They followed it up with a Doomsday Knee to Scorpio Sky for a near-fall. Trent looked to hit Kazarian with a Piledriver on the apron but Scorpio Sky came in to make the save at the right moment.
Chuck Taylor was sent flying into the barricade before Sky and Kazarian hit Trent with a Powerbomb/Strike combo for the win.

Chris Jericho appeared on the screen to cut a promo as Santana and Ortiz were making their way out of the arena. Jericho said that Santana and Ortiz were already dominating the AEW Tag-Team division and that they wanted to issue a challenge to the none other than Matt and Nick Jackson at AEW Full Gear in November.
Riho (C) vs Dr. Britt Baker (for the AEW Women's Championship)
Riho defended her AEW Women's title for the first time against Dr. Britt Baker. Baker immediately showed off her superior strength while it was clear that Riho would have to use her agility to win. Baker failed in an arm-drag takedown early on and both ladies crashed to the floor as Riho crawled to the ropes.
Baker tried pinning Riho after reversing a crossbody but Riho maneuvered out and hit a running dropkick. Riho took Baker down with a body scissors before immediately hitting Baker with a stomp to the midsection. The Champ headed to the top rope but missed with her Stomp.
Baker capitalized and hit a TKO before following it up with a boot to Riho's chest. The champ followed up with a couple of desperate roll-up attempts before Baker took her out with a swinging neckbreaker. Baker followed up with a superkick for the near-fall. The Champion replied with a Northern Lights Suplex out of nowhere before locking in a single leg Boston Crab.
Baker reached the bottom rope but Riho wasted no time in reaching to the top rope and hitting the double stomp to Baker's back for a near-fall. The champ tried to follow up with the running knees but Baker dodged it and connected with a forearm. Baker then tried to lock in the Ring of Saturn into the Mandible Claw but as she was transitioning, Riho rolled her over and pinned her to retain her title.

Jurassic Express vs Lucha Bros (AEW Tag-Team Championship Tournament)
It initially looked like Pentagon and Fenix would refuse to compete against Jurassic Express because Luchasaurus was out injured. He called Marko Stunt and Jungle Boy "babies" before referee Aubrey Edwards forced them to get into the ring.
Marko Stunt and Pentagon started us off. To his credit or stupidity, Marko Stunt showed no fear and got under Pentagon's skin. Stunt bit Pentagon before Jungle Boy helped him hit Pentagon with a hurricanrana. Fenix came in and caught Jungle Boy with a Superkick but Jurassic Express continued dominating the early stages of the match.
The dominance continued until Jungle Boy went to Irish Whip Stunt into Pentagon who hit a nasty Superkick. Fenix came in and took out Jungle Boy as Pentagon hit Marko Stunt with a Pumphandle Driver. Stunt managed to kick out at the last second.
During the commercial break, Pentagon lifted Stunt with one arm and launched him into Fenix who caught him with a Superkick in midair.
Stunt was still cornered after we came back from the break. Stunt caught Pentagon in the face with a boot and both men made tags. Jungle Boy came in on the hot tag and cleared house. He dumped Pentagon out of the ring before we saw some great tandem offense from Jungle Boy and Marko Stunt. They almost got the pinfall on Fenix until Pentagon came in the wrest control for his team.
Pentagon hit Marko Stunt with the armbreaker. The Lucha Bros then hit the double stomp into the Packaged Piledriver on Stunt for the win.

Chris Jericho (C) vs Darby Allin (for the AEW World Championship in a Philadelphia Street Fight)
Darby Allin came at Jericho right out of the blocks. He caught Jericho with a dropkick, driving him out to ringside. Allin continued peppering Jericho with strikes before rolling the Champion back into the ring.
Jericho found an opening at this point and briefly got back in control but Allin's speed continued to cause Jericho problems. Jericho kept grounding Allin only for the challenger to pepper Jericho with strikes in short bursts. Jericho then launched Allin out of the ring. The landing looked nasty and Allin clutched his knee.
Jericho had no sympathy for the challenger and continued the beatdown at ringside. Le Champion then rolled Allin back into the ring and took out a kendo stick. We saw that Allin was busted open at the back of his head as Jericho unloaded on him with the kendo stick.
Jericho then headed to the top rope with the kendo stick. Allin dodged Jericho's attempted strike and grabbed the kendo stick. He got a few shots in until Jericho locked in the Liontamer. The referee forced Jericho to break the hold after Allin crawled to the bottom rope.
Allin hit Jericho with the kendo stick as Jericho was arguing with the referee. The challenger then got a 2-count off a crossbody. Le Champion then set up a steel chair in the corner. As he went to launch Darby Allin into the chair, Allin reversed it and hit him with a Stunner for a near-fall.
Jericho recovered and locked in the Liontamer once again and Allin managed to get to the ropes once more. Jericho then taped Allin's arms together and unloaded on his defenseless challenger. Allin somehow hit a no-handed moonsault and covered Jericho for a 2-count. Jericho scampered out of the ring and Allin followed it with a suicide dive with his hands still tied.
Back in the ring, Allin hit a dive off the top rope for another near-fall. Jericho caught Allin with a clothesline and powerbombed him onto the skateboard.
