The Tag Team Champions aren't on the same page; MJF sends a brutal message
The Tag Team Champions aren't on the same page; MJF sends a brutal message

This is it. It's the final AEW Dynamite before AEW All Out. We've still got some great action to get through before Dynamite's annual extravaganza, including the debut match of the NWA Women's Champion Thunder Rosa. Tonight, she'll take on Serena Deeb just days before her AEW Women's Title bout against Hikaru Shida.

Jon Moxley will also look to send a message to MJF when he faces Mark Sterling later on in the evening. While the Paradigm Shift is banned at AEW All Out, that's not the case for tonight.

All that, plus Kenny Omega & Adam Page meet FTR face-to-face, The Young Bucks, Jurassic Express, Private Party, and SCU in an eight-man tag, and more.

Santana & Ortiz vs The Best Friends on AEW Dynamite

Before Santana and Ortiz could even get to the ring, they were blindsided by The Best Friends. The four men brawled on the outside, with Trent hitting a huge dive off the stage.

The Best Friends brought out the steel steps for a nasty double suplex, but Ortiz was saved by Santana. Chuckie T launched Santana over the barricade, and we saw his ankle land awkwardly on the steel chair. Chuck followed up by setting up more steel chairs by the ring.

Ortiz worked over Trent on the other side of the ring, but a big spear put Trent back in the fight. As we cut back to Chuck, he'd set up a pyramid of chairs. It gave Santana enough time to recover, and he blasted Chuck with a chair to the face.

Santana launched Chuck right into the steel structure that he'd built. Trent met Santana in the ring, and the bell rang for the actual match to start. Trent caught Santana with a big leaping meteora. However, Ortiz caught Trent bouncing off the ropes, allowing Santana to rock him with a running boot. A suplex toss onto the top ropes saw Trent ricochet onto his head.

Trent was able to spike Ortiz with a tornado DDT. Unfortunately, there was no one for him to tag out to, as Chuck was still laid out in the chairs. Trent hit a big dive on Ortiz, but Santana leaped his spear, sending him right into the barricade head first.

Eventually, Chuck made it back to the apron and tagged in, sending Santana and Ortiz back to the floor for a dive. Back in the ring, Santana was hit with the Sole Food and a Falcon Arrow, but Ortiz broke up the pin.

Chuck rolled Santana up with a sunset flip, getting a near fall. Trent tagged in off an enziguri from Chuck, and laid out Santana with a bicycle knee strike. As he set up on the apron, Ortiz again held onto his feet, allowing Santana to knock him off and send him spine first onto the steps.

They set up for the Street Sweeper, but Chuck dropped Santana off the apron. Trent hit the sunset driver on Ortiz, only for Santana to put his arm on the ropes and break the pin. Thanks to a distraction from Ortiz, Santana caught Trent with the night stick. The Street Sweeper put The Best Friends away.

AEW Dynamite Results: Santana & Ortiz defeated The Best Friends via pinfall on AEW Dynamite.

Grade: B+


MJF was preparing for his AEW World Championship match at AEW All Out this Saturday, when he was told that his lawyer was looking for a way out of his match with Jon Moxley tonight.

Furious at the thought that he'd lose out on his title opportunity, he threatened Mark Sterling, hoping to be a bit more terrifying than the AEW World Champion.

Next up, an eight-man tag team match on AEW Dynamite. The winners would go on to AEW All Out to face one another.


SCU & Private Party vs Jurassic Express & The Young Bucks on AEW Dynamite

Kazarian and Jungle Boy started the match off, with the two wresting to a stalemate. Mark Quen and Matt Jackson tagged in next, with Quen getting an impressive pop-up dropkick counter. As Isaiah Kassidy tagged in, he stunned Matt with the gamengiri and a springboard hurricanrana.

Matt rolled to the floor and tore the sign of a fan that read "Hangman, drink my beer." Daniels tagged in, but The Young Bucks were able to rock him with a double team maneuver. The Bucks kept working with one another, not Jurassic Express, hitting a backbreaker/rolling neckbreaker combination.

The Bucks continued to work over Daniels, but the Fallen Angel managed to send them headfirst into one another. Kazarian and Jungle boy tagged back in, with Kazarian hitting a quick running wheel kick.

A striking combination took out Jungle Boy, and Kazarian brought Nick Jackson over for a slingshot cutter. Daniels followed that, hitting an Asai Moonsault on The Young Bucks on the floor. Back in the ring, a springboard leg drop couldn't put Jungle Boy away.

Kassidy and Quen were in next, dropping Jungle Boy with a quick flapjack facebuster. SCU looked to show Private Party a thing or two, as we began to see a showing of one-upmanship. During the break, the two teams tagged in and out, trying to prove how good each team was, all at the expense of Jungle Boy, who took a lot of punishment in such a short amount of time.

Jungle Boy, finally, got a break when Kassidy accidentally laid out Daniels with a clothesline. An Olympic Slam spiked Kassidy, and Jungle Boy finally tagged in Luchasaurus. Private Party escaped a double chokeslam from the big man, but were turned inside out with double clotheslines.

Luchasaurus hit that double chokeslam, and Matt Jackson tagged in, setting up for a double Risky Business. Things broke down here, with SCU laying out three of their opponents before dropping a now legal Jungle Boy with an elevated neckbreaker. A Swanton from Kassidy got the nearfall.

Thanks to a wild kick from Matt Jackson, Jungle Boy was laid out for a BME from Daniels. The Shooting Star Press connected from Quen, but the pin was broken up. Jurassic Express hit a toss flip powerbomb, but that pin was broken up as well.

Luchasaurus tagged in, but was tagged blindly by The Bucks, who hit the BTE Trigger for the win.

AEW Dynamite Results: The Young Bucks & Jurassic Express defeated Private Party & SCU via pinfall on AEW Dynamite.

Grade: B-


At AEW All Out, Orange Cassidy will face Chris Jericho in a Mimosa Mayhem match. However, Jake Hager revealed to Cassidy that Jericho wanted him ringside for his match on AEW Dynamite tonight.

Tully Blanchard was backstage with the #1 contenders to the AEW Tag Team Titles, FTR. Blanchard said that this duo are the guys that can finally end the reign of Adam Page and Kenny Omega.


Kenny Omega talks AEW All Out match

Kenny Omega was asked by Tony Schiavone about why Adam Page betrayed The Young Bucks. Omega said that people make mistakes, and FTR tricked Page into doing what he did last week. Before they could continue, FTR and Blanchard came out.

Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood said that they had no issues with Kenny Omega and Adam Page, and they offered Omega some chocolate milk. Omega knew what they were doing, and decided to just get this over with. He wasn't afraid of a two-on-one fight.

Adam Page came out, and Dax Harwood said that they never convinced Adam Page to do what he did last week. Page got in his own head and betrayed The Young Bucks on his own.

Omega, of course, didn't believe that, but FTR managed to leave the AEW Tag Team Champions fractured with more mind games. At AEW All Out, will FTR be able to end the reign of Omega & Page?


Backstage, Chris Jericho claimed that throughout his rivalry with Orange Cassidy, he's made Freshly Squeezed. Cassidy is now a main event star in AEW, but he's not at the level of Le Champion. At AEW All Out, he's knocking Cassidy out with a Judas Effect, he's forcing him to tap to the Walls of Jericho, and he's tossing him into the Mimosa pool.

Coming up on AEW Dynamite, Chris Jericho will take on Joey Janela.

"The Bad Boy" Joey Janela vs Chris Jericho on AEW Dynamite

Chris Jericho revealed he was wearing an Orange Cassidy shirt when Freshly Squeezed came down to the ring. He then battered Janela heavily, looking to send a message to Cassidy. The inaugural AEW World Champion took out all his frustrations on The Bad Boy, who struggled to get out of the starting gate.

Janela took two back suplexes, but a third he escaped. A series of strikes built up some momentum, only for Jericho to stop it completely with a big clothesline. A series of knees left Janela dazed on the ramp.

As Janela lept off the ropes for a springboard maneuver, AEW's Demo God caught him with the Codebreaker. The Walls finished the job.

Grade: C

Jericho wasn't done, tearing off one of the AEW turnbuckle pads and busting Janela open. He then wiped the blood on his Orange Cassidy shirt. Eventually, Orange rushed the ring, but Jake Hager and Jericho took him out.

At least, that was the plan. Sonny Kiss rushed in and laid out Jericho. Jake Hager planted him with a slam but was sent to the floor by Orange Cassidy. A tornado DDT spiked Jericho, but the superman punch was avoided when Hager pulled the Demo God out of the ring.

Team Taz sends a message to the AEW locker room

At AEW All Out, Brian Cage and Ricky Starks will compete in the Casino Battle Royal. Taz called out Lance Archer and Jake Roberts, leading to the two interrupting them.

Roberts called Team Taz the best set of losers he's ever seen. Archer stepped over the ropes, but Roberts held him back. Still, they were broken up by Eddie Kingston, The Butcher & The Blade, and the Lucha Bros.

Tully Blanchard brought Shawn Spears out while Kingston and Taz talked trash. It looked like all the competitors in the Casino Battle Royal started to brawl, including Darby Allin, who rushed the ring to get his hands on Ricky Starks.


Thunder Rosa vs Serena Deeb on AEW Dynamite

The NWA Women's Champion took the veteran down, momentarily, but Serena Deeb took things over, forcing Rosa to get back to her feet. They traded elbows, leading to Rosa dumping Deeb with two arm drags and a dropkick.

Deeb took Rosa down again and worked over the knee, hoping to lock in a single leg Boston Crab. Rosa made it to the ropes, where she was dropped with a neckbreaker. During the add, however, the challenger to the AEW Women's Championship was able to get back in the match, hitting a running dropkick on Deeb while she was in the tree of woe.

A backstabber connected, but Deeb recovered, building momentum with clotheslines and an armbreaker, setting up for an octopus stretch. Deeb turned it into a pinfall, but Thunder Rosa escaped and hit a running double knee strike in the corner. Another dropkick connected, but Rosa was again caught in a pinning predicament.

Rosa kicked out and countered a piledriver for a death valley driver. A striking combination set up for a German suplex. Deeb was rocked with a running flying knee, and planted with a deadlift Thunder Driver.

AEW Dynamite Results: Thunder Rosa defeated Serena Deeb via pinfall on AEW Dynamite.

Grade: B

Mark Sterling w/Wardlow vs Jon Moxley on AEW Dynamite

The AEW World Champion started off slow, but a big right to Mark Sterling sent him to the floor. He was holding his ear and had a hard time hearing. Jon Moxley gave Sterling a free shot to the back, or at least pretended to, avoiding Sterling's... "offense."

Sterling fell to the floor again, with Wardlow shaking his head in embarrassment. Sterling caught Moxley with a poke to the eye, but that only served to anger Mox, who sent him outside and launched him into the barricade.

He went so far as to beat Sterling with his own shoe, which is probably something many people have wanted to do to lawyers. Inside the ring, Mox offered his hand to Sterling, but then poked him in the eye before hitting the Paradigm Shift.

Grade: D-

Wardlow rushed Moxley inside the ring, laying him out with a clothesline before hitting two F-10s. MJF came out in his neckbrace and a walker but tossed both to the side. Wardlow and MJF laid into the AEW World Champion. A shot with the ring busted Mox open.

MJF kept up the pressure, biting into Moxley's face. Wardlow held the championship for MJF.
