AEW Dynamite Results (9/07) – For the first time in its history, AEW Dynamite begins with highlights from Sunday’s All Out, focusing on the big return of MJF.
We shoot inside the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York, where the commentary trio of Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Tazz welcome us to the show. They send things to a special message from Tony Khan.
The AEW President is shown and he reads a statement while talking directly into the camera. Tony Khan welcomes everyone to the show and says he has been forced to vacate the World Title and the Trios Title. He announces that the AEW World Championship and AEW Trios Tag-Team Championships will be decided at the upcoming AEW Grand Slam shows in tournaments.
Khan promises tonight will be a great show and vows to deliver some of the best shows across the next several weeks. We return to the commentary desk where the trio give their thoughts on the announcements from the boss man.
MJF Is Back!
We hear the familiar sounds of the theme for MJF and the winner of the Casino Ladder Match at ALL OUT heads out in a Bills jersey. He runs over and hugs Taz and then heads to the ring while the fans go bonkers with cheers and chants.
MJF drops to his knees and clutches his chest. He then begins speaking by saying, “The Devil is back!” He says the greatest quarterback of all-time, Josh Allen, is from Buffalo. He asks who is happy to see him back. He then responds to some chants from fans and says he was just joking. He says he didn’t mean it when he called all the AEW fans stupid marks.
The fans continue cheering and he says now it’s time to address the big, fat smelly elephant in the room. He tells a woman in the audience that he is not talking about her. He brings up the title being vacated.
He continues, bringing up that he likes to work smart, not hard and says he’s got a chip that tells him he can have a title shot whenever he wants. He says because of that he won’t be involved in the tournament.
He talks about his deal with Tony Khan and AEW paying him a boatload of money and then tells the old story about Moses parting the seas, and says he’s not talking about him because he’s better than him. He says he’s Maxwell Jacob Friedman and he’s better than us …and he knows it.
Jon Moxley’s theme hits and as “Wild Thing” plays we see the former AEW Champion make his custom entrance through the crowd. He heads to the ring through the crowd in the KeyBank Center while MJF hangs around with a look of confusion on his face.
Moxley says he’s full of crap. MJF calls the fans poor lardasses who have the “worst football team in the history of the United States of America.” He tears the jersey off and says Josh Allen sucks. MJF notes he could view the world title as a bargaining chip and teases he could take the title to a “real wrestling company.” MJF says he could go work for the only Khan who really matters, “Jolly Old Saint Nick”. He references Cody Rhodes, calling him his hero, and Triple H, quoting his “Best for Business” line. Moxley tells him to leave the ring, but MJF takes his shirt off, but he leaves.
Moxley says he’s pissed off and embarrassed. He says he’s pissed off that he doesn’t have the title because what the title represents means a lot to him. Moxley says the title means a lot to a lot of people, noting that it stands for the heroes who stood tall during the COVID-19 pandemic. Moxley says the title represents slaying demons and everything he loves about the business. He notes that he lost on Sunday, and that’s on him. Moxley points out that he’s supposed to be on vacation, but now he has the chance win the gold. He previews the title tournament and says he wants “the ball”, so he’s going to take the shot. He says it’s time to be a legend.

Toni Storm vs. Penelope Ford w/ Kip Sabian
Before the match, a clip is shown from backstage at AEW’s All Out where Jamie Hayter argues and walks away from Britt Baker after their match.
Penelope Ford then starts out in control of the match, bringing Toni Storm down, but she does a handstand to get out of the situation and drops Ford with a shoulder tackle. The women shake hands but it is just Ford goading her in, yet Storm fires back with shoulder tackles and a dropkick into the corner. She looks for the hip attack but Ford avoids it, but she then spends too much time talking to the camera and that allows Storm to dive out of the ring with a kick.
Ford instantly gets back on track by sending the champion into the steel stairs, and she follows that by staying in control inside the ring. Ford continues to remain in control with a dropkick to the back of Storm before using a sweeping leg to take the former WWE Superstar down. Ford continues working the back, and she then nails Storm with a clubbing blow to the back of the neck.
The champion responds with an uppercut, and that allows her to hit the Hip Attack in the corner, and when Ford attempts to hit a Northern Lights Suplex the champion counters and gets the pin.
Winner: Toni Storm

– The Acclaimed then make their way out, but before Max Caster can hit his rap, Swerve Strickland makes his way out. He asks Buffalo if they wanted to hear more corny rap jokes, and he says he has a joke for them, which is The Acclaimed as champions. Billy Gunn cuts him off and says this isn’t his house no more, it’s Daddy Asse’s house, as Anthony Bowens then says at AEW Grand Slam the rematch is happening, and they’re taking the gold home.
Let’s Hear From Chris Jericho
Chris Jericho is backstage and he says Sunday was a gigantic win, and he claims he has found the fountain of youth, which is why he could beat Bryan Danielson. He says he’s the best wrestler, the best sports entertainer ever. That is why he will beat Danielson again next, and then he will win the AEW World Championship because this is his company, and his f’in locker room.
Jericho then says he has two little brothers, and one is Sammy Guevara who is in the tournament of champions, and the Spanish God claims that he will beat Darby Allin. Jericho’s other brother is Daniel Garcia, and he says he will win tonight, but they’re going to leave him alone tonight to do it alone. Guevara then brands about how sexy he is.

Tony Nese goes up to the champion and starts messing with his pecs, and he eats a headbutt for his efforts. Wardlow then levels the challenger with a clothesline, the straps come down and he nails his first Powerbomb. Wardlow then hits another two for good measure, and it’s all over.
Winner (and still TNT Champion): Wardlow

Wardlow then gets on the microphone and says he has heard a lot on the internet that he has lost momentum. He’s the TNT Champion, and it’s time to remind everyone in the locker room and his fans that this is Wardlow’s world.
– Darby Allin is shown in a quick backstage promo segment. He talks about his upcoming match in the tournament announced earlier in the show and says he’s not gonna have Sting with him when that time comes.

“Hangman” Adam Page vs. Bryan Danielson
The two men start out exchanging holds until they get to the corner, where Bryan Danielson just slaps the chest of his opponent. The two men then get down to business, exchanging chops, with Danielson then laying in with his kicks in the corner. “Hangman” Adam Page eats a boot to the face, but he then knocks Danielson off the turnbuckles as he hits a springboard lariat to send Danielson to the floor.
He then tries to follow up by diving to the outside, but the veteran scouts it and sends Page into the ring post shoulder first. Danielson continues working the arm inside the ring, and then they head back out with Page being sat on a chair as Bryan nails more kicks and then hits a huge dropkick. Danielson continues to target the arm, stomping down on it, but Page then catches him and connects with the fallaway slam, as he then launches himself over the top rope with a crossbody.
Inside the ring Page connects with a Death Valley Driver, but Danielson manages to kick out of it. Danielson then trips Page into the second turnbuckle, and that allows him to come in with several running boots in the corner, and then another round kick to the head which Page kicks out of.
Danielson then gets cut off on the top rope and Page launches the former WWE Superstar down to the ring, but somehow he is able to kick out! Page heads straight out of the ring for the Buckshot Lariat, but Danielson rolls out of the ring instead. Page then sends Danielson to the chair on the outside, and he runs in with a big boot to give a receipt from earlier on.
Both men then get back into the ring and once again unload chops on each other, but Page comes out on top with a powerbomb, yet Danielson kicks out. Page then sets Danielson onto the top turnbuckle, but he then sneaks under the legs and sets the tree of woe to hammer more kicks in. Then he takes him back up to deliver a barrage of elbow shots, but Page lands on his feet from the top rope attempt, and Page then hits a rolling elbow!
Bryan kicks out, and smartly transitions straight into the LeBell Lock, but he escapes and then sends him into the ropes only for Danielson to skin the cat. He then immediately brings the LeBell Lock back again, but Page rolls out and connects with some knee strikes to the head to break it up. They hit several big forearms again, only for Page to hit Deadeye, and still, Bryan kicks out of the pinfall! Danielson then nails his Busaiku Knee finisher, but Page rolls out of the ropes, Bryan aims for a suicide dive but gets caught into a powerbomb onto the ring apron.
Page hits the moonsault from the top rope to the outside, and then aims for the Buckshot Lariat, but Danielson reverses into the roll-up, and he bridges to stop Page kicking out to get the win. He now faces Chris Jericho in the semifinal match.
Winner: Chris Jericho

Garcia fights back with a splash in the corner, and then a big lariat, and it is then his turn to get a near fall. Garcia then connects with a series of suplexes, but Yuta reverses and hits some of his own, but he then gets caught on the second turnbuckle as he is German suplexed back to the ring!
