AEW Dynamite is live tonight from Houston, TX. at 8/7c on TBS and HBO Max.
MJF Is Ready For 6-On-6 Warfare
The show kicks off with a live cold open shot of Lexy Nair backstage with MJF and The Don Callis Family. MJF talks trash about virtually everyone on the roster, including a shot at Mark Briscoe for only being famous because his father died. He then let Don Callis take over the microphone.
Callis then goes on to list MJF’s teammates for the six-on-six battle in tonight’s main event and the steel cage match at AEW Forbidden Door. Knight is in, so is Fletcher, Doyle, Okada, and Andrade. When Andrade is named, he tries speaking up. Callis tells Andrade his time will come, but for now, do the match. He walks off and the Sum 41 Dynamite theme hits as we shoot inside the arena.
Kenny Omega vs. Tony Nese
We see Tony Nese in the ring as the commentators inform us that he demanded a match before the show went live. The theme for Kenny Omega hits, and it turns out, he’s got one. The commentators promote Omega vs. Zack Sabre Jr. as a dream match as Omega goes on to beat Nese in a quick squash with the One Winged Angel.
Winner: Kenny Omega
TMDK Confronts The Elite
The rest of TMDK come out along with Zack Sabre Jr. Omega exits the ring, but gets back on the apron when The Young Bucks and Jack Perry come out to even up the numbers. Omega points out that at Forbidden Door it’ll be he and ZSJ going one-on-one.
Daniel Garcia & Jon Moxley vs. Bandido & Brody King
Garcia and Bandido will start this one off. Garcia runs his mouth and pie faces Bandido. Lock-up, go behind and a mat return by Garcia, and he kicks “dirt” on Bandido. Another lock-up, Bandido takes Garcia to the mat and kicks “dirt” on him.
Garcia with a side headlock takedown, both men struggle on the mat, but Bandido kips up! Garcia threatens Bandido with finger guns. We get leapfrogs and roll throughs before Bandido connects on a dropkick. King gets the tag and he scoop slams Garcia.
King tells Bandido to get into the ring, he picks him up, and he slams Bandido onto Garcia. It’s time for the macarena, but Garcia breaks it up because he’s feeling it. Garcia does his little dance. Moxley isn’t very happy. Mox tags in.
Now with Moxley and King in the ring, they circle each other, and we get a forearm battle, with neither man giving any ground. Moxley strings together a series of forearms and chops which King eats, and he delivers his own series. That drops Moxley to his knee.
Garcia comes back in, but King with a hip toss that sends him out to the floor. Bandido is in, and he takes off and hits a Swan Dive to both Mox and Garcia at ringside. On that note, the show shifts gears and settles into a mid-match commercial break.
The show returns and we see King lands some hard shots on Mox in the corner before taking Garcia away with one last one. Mox drops to the mat from the impact, using the ropes to get back to his feet, only for Brody to send him back to the ropes.
They trade strikes again, until King blocks a lariat and goes for a powerbomb. Mox breaks free to take him down with a cutter, but King is back on his feet already, before Jon lays him down with a lariat. Tags are made to Bandido and Garcia, the latter being launched into the corner with a belly to belly suplex by Bandido as we see Mox chatting with Shafir at ringside.
Garcia leaves the ring to get a breather, as Brody goes for a dive, but is cut off when Marina stands in the way. She lets out a bark at Brody, who responds in kind. This goes back and forth, proving to be a distraction as Mox comes at King with a dive through the ropes.
He lays into Brody some more before landing a piledriver onto the floor, leading to Bandido looking for revenge, only to be sent into the barricade by Garcia. Mox brings Brody back into the ring before making the tag to Garcia, who drops King hard to the mat for a two count.
He lands a few more shots on King to keep him down before tagging in Jon, who brings King back to his feet before landing some shots to bring him to the corner. He digs his nails into the back of Brody before setting him up on the turnbuckle for a superplex off the top, continuing to keep the pressure on King as we go to ad break.
We return just as Bandido gets knocked off the apron by Mox, leading to a tag to Garcia to keep things going. The Death Riders go back and forth on this, until King lays them out with a double lariat followed by a tag to Bandido! Torneo by the luchador takes the Continental Champion out, and a press slam sends Garcia on top of Mox.
Garcia leaves the ring as Mox goes after Bandido, but he gets sent into the ropes, where he cuts off Bandido from a 21 Plex attempt. Mox goes for a delayed vertical suplex on the luchador, who counters it with one of his own before Shafir slides into the ring with the ref distracted.
She goes for a suplex on Bandido, but Bandido hoists her up for a delayed vertical suplex before dropping her to the mat. Garcia comes back in on a tag, but gets taken out by Bandido, only for Mox to break the pin. Brody takes Mox out of the ring as Bandido goes for an inside cradle, but Daniel counters for one of his own for a two count. Bandido sets him up for a 21 Plex as Brody dives through the ropes to keep Mox away, and this gets Brodido the win!
Winners: Brody King & Bandido
