The road to AEW All In: London continues tonight, as AEW Dynamite is live from The Palms in Las Vegas, NV. at 8/7c on TBS and HBO Max.
Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega & Don Callis Family Kick Things Off
Inside the arena, the Sum 41 “You Wanted War” theme plays and Excalibur welcomes us to the show with his usual opening catchphrase. “It’s Wednesday, and you know what that means!” He is joined on commentary by Paul Wight and Tony Schiavone.
Meanwhile, pyro erupts and the familiar sounds of Will Ospreay’s theme hits. “The Aerial Assassin” makes his way out to the ring with a microphone. He asks the Vegas crowd if anyone lost a lot of money, encouraging them to go win it back before talking about Grand Slam Mexico last week.
He’s grateful for the love of the fans last week, especially after finding out that his grandfather passed away. He addresses the emotions he had about this, before saying his grandfather would ask him why he’s crying and “do a flip.”
Will talks about pushing past this hurdle and doing his best for the fans, before turning his attention to Kenny Omega. He addresses the fact Omega wasn’t in Mexico last week but is backstage tonight, calling him out for a chat…but out instead comes Don Callis.
Fans greet Callis with loud “Shut the f**k up!” chants as he attempts to start speaking. Callis talks about being like Ospreay, in that he wasn’t at the first AEW Dynamite. He says he saw a place he could exploit. He gloats about his history with Kenny Omega and how he turned on him.
Callis says Ospreay thinks that his road to All In: London at Wembley Stadium is paved in gold, but it’s not, it’s paved in blood. “Your blood, brother!” With that said, RPG Vice and Jake Doyle ambush Ospreay and attack him from behind.
This continues until Kenny Omega runs out with a lead pipe and cleans house. Omega looks down as Ospreay with a smile on his face. He says he felt what Ospreay said. He says he has a way of talking when he feels something, and he could feel that Ospreay felt what he was saying.
He says he warned Ospreay about The Death Riders and others. He said his recent actions have made him sloppy. He tells Ospreay he will lose everything. He points his pipe at Ospreay and says this isn’t the man he wants to fight at Wembley Stadium.
He crouches down and extends his hand to Ospreay. Ospreay hesitates, but takes it. Omega helps him up. He tells Ospreay that he hopes he understands that he can’t help him like this again. From here on out it’s just me and you. Ospreay says he appreciates the help but points out that he didn’t ask for it.
He says he’s not gonna need his help. “Thank you,” he says, before dropping the microphone. Ospreay’s theme hits to end the explosive opening segment. Ospreay exits the ring and heads up the ramp. He stops and turns and looks at Omega one final time before heading to the back.
AEW All In: London Casino Gauntlet No. 2 Spot Qualifier
MJF vs. ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey vs. Nick Wayne
Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Paul Wight run down the advertised lineup for tonight’s show as the official match graphics flash across the screen, and the crowd reacts to each in the background. We return live, where we head to the ring for our opening contest.
Kicking off in-ring action on tonight’s show is a three-way to determine the number two spot at the Casino Gauntlet at AEW All In: London. It will be MJF vs. ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey vs. Nick Wayne. A pre-match video package airs to bring us up to speed on the events leading into this bout.
Back live, the theme for MJF hits and the Vegas crowd roars as “The Dapper Yapper” Justin Roberts begins the formal pre-match ring introductions. MJF comes out to showering pyro and poses before heading to the ring. MJF grabs Justin Roberts by the throat.
Roberts then corrects himself and introduces MJF as “The One True Champion” MJF. The theme for Nick Wayne hits next and out he comes as the second of three competitors in this high stakes bout. After that, ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey comes out to a big pop from the “Sin City” fans.
The bell sounds and we’re officially off-and-running with this one.
