MJF calls out AEW World Champion Jon Moxley on AEW Dynamite

MJF was out next on AEW Dynamite as part of his campaign to become the AEW World Champion. MJF cut a scathing promo on Jon Moxley. He started off with stats showing polling numbers that showed him at +500% and Moxley at -1000%.

MJF then insinuated that Moxley didn't really care about the fans and all he cared about was himself. He then said that Moxley was afraid to face him.

MJF said that he wants to make Jon Moxley feel comfortable by lying down for him. He added that Jon is not a leader while lying down in the middle of the AEW Dynamite ring.

MJF then compared Jon Moxley to a dog chasing a car. He said that if Moxley caught up to the car, he wouldn't know what to do.

Jon Moxley's music hit after this and MJF freaked out. He sent Wardlow and the rest of his team to guard Moxley's usual entrance. However, this time Moxley came out from the entrance ramp and blindsided MJF and laid him out in the middle of the AEW Dynamite ring with the Paradigm Shift.

Cody (C) vs Scorpio Sky (for the TNT Championship) on AEW Dynamite

Cody had the Nightmare Family accompany him into the AEW Dynamite ring while Scorpio Sky came in alone, with one of the biggest matches of his career ahead of him.

Scorpio Sky had the better of the opening exchange, dumping Cody out of the ring. Cody went back in and gave back as good as he got, this time it was Scorpio Sky who was tossed out to ringside. Back in the ring, Scorpio Sky drove his knees into Cody in the corner before Cody replied with a powerslam.

Back from the commercial break to AEW Dynamite, Cody had a submission locked in. Sky broke out and wrested control of the match. He sent Cody rib-first into the ring post and followed it up a little later with a cutter on the entrance ramp.

Cody replied with a superplex from the top rope but Scorpio Sky had the inside cradle for a nearfall. The champion followed it up with a Cross Rhodes but Sky kicked out again. Sky almost had Cody, sending him facefirst into the mat for a nearfall.

Sky went for another cutter but Cody blocked it and followed it up with a second Cross Rhodes to retain the AEW TNT Championship.

Page started off with a sliding clothesline to Jungle Boy and looked to be in fantastic touch. Omega and Page traded tags as they isolated Jungle Boy and worked him over.

Luchasaurus finally tagged in and cleared house but not for long. Kenny Omega caught Luchasaurus with a V-Trigger and then a Snapdragon. Omega then went to hit Jungle Boy with a Snapdragon but he was sent out of the ring with an armdrag. Omega hit Marko Stunt with a snapdragon at ringside instead.

Back in the AEW Dynamite ring, Jungle Boy caught Page with a spinning DDT. Luchasaurus followed it with a spinning kick but the cover was broken up at 2.

The special AEW Dynamite segment with The Rock N' Roll Express, Arn Anderson, and Tully Blanchard was next. FTR and The Young Bucks were also out there.

The Rock N' Roll Express put The Young Bucks as the best in the world while Arn Anderson put over FTR. Tully Blanchard, however, said that to be the best they needed to have gold around their waist which they didn't.

Arn and Tully got into a scuffle after this and Tully Blanchard left the ring.

With everyone distracted, FTR attacked Robert Gibson and Ricky Morton, taking out Morton with a Spike Piledriver.
