AEW Dynamite Results (3/22) – This week’s Dynamite opens with “Hangman” Adam Page standing around outside the Cable Dahmer Arena, while we learn that Matt Jackson has been savagely attacked. Nick Jackson rides with him in the ambulance he is loaded into. Don Callis holds Kenny Omega back due to his match tonight. Page decides to hop in the ambulance at the last moment.
We are live from the Cable Dahmer Arena in Independence, MO, as the theme of AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy hits. The “Freshly Squeezed” one emerges and pulls his title out of a back pack. We see him sporting a tiny bit of face paint on his cheek to be a good partner to his two-face-painted allies for tonight’s Trios opener.
Orange Cassidy, Darby Allin & Sting vs. Kip Sabian, The Butcher & The Blade
Cassidy stops and waits for the arrival of his first of two partners. On that note, Darby Allin’s theme hits and one of the four pillars of AEW emerges to a big pop and heads down to join him.
Finally, the theme for “The Icon” hits and out comes Sting. Tony Schiavone does his “this is STING!” gimmick on commentary as he, Taz and Excalibur sing his praises as he makes his walk down to the join Cassidy and Allin as the fans go absolutely ballistic.
The three baby face stars enter the ring and pose for the fans as Sting’s music continues to play. Now it wraps up and the three await the arrival of their opponents for tonight’s Trios opener here on Dynamite.
Orange Cassidy and Kip Sabian kickstart things with Cassidy dropping his opponent with a dropkick after some back-and-forth wrestling, but that leads to The Butcher tagging in, and so does Sting. Butcher throws a couple of forearms at Sting but the Icon just accepts them and then unloads some shots of his own until Butcher charges him into the corner and bites his head. However, he then misses with a Stinger Splash and the veteran shows him how it’s done.
He looks for the Scorpion Deathlock but Butcher’s partners hit the ring and stop it which leads to an all-out brawl. The heels come out on top and then drop Sting with a double suplex, but as Sabian looks to dive from the top rope, Sting channels his inner Cassidy with slow rolls to avoid it as Darby Allin tags in. Allin hits Sabian with Code Red immediately which gets him a near fall, but Penelope Ford then provides a distraction which allows Sabian to turn things around.
The heels isolate Allin, but as Sabian sends him into his corner Allin dives and wipes out the men on the ring apron, and he tags in Cassidy who drops Sabian with a tornado DDT. His slow kicks begin until Butcher just runs in and drops him, and that is followed by a great double team as they plan Cassidy down again. Sabian follows it up with a cannonball, but he brags for too long and that allows Sting to tag in and he hits some of the slow kicks himself.
Sting then lights up and starts dropping every one in sight as Sabian gets set into the Scorpion Deathlock, but Butcher and Blade beat him down until Allin charges in and throws hands toward them. He drops them both with a double coffin from the middle rope but he then eats a knee to the face from Sabian, who is then hit with a Stundog Millionaire himself as he then dives out at The Blade. Cassidy then does the same but dives into The Butcher, and inside the ring the Scorpion Death Drop is connected.
Winners: Orange Cassidy, Darby Allin & Sting
Looking Back At Last Week’s Four Pillars Of AEW Segment
After the match, as Sting and Orange Cassidy celebrate the win, the commentators focus on Darby Allin, who is by himself in the corner of the ring looking up at the AEW Double Or Nothing sign hanging in the rafters.
From there, we shoot to an extensive video package looking back at the four pillars of AEW segment with MJF, Darby Allin, Jungle Boy and Sammy Guevara from last week’s show. We hear that The Gunns will be putting their tag titles on-the-line against Top Flight next and then head into another commercial break.
— According to a text message Excalibur received from Brandon Cutler, it was the Blackpool Combat Club that attacked Matt Jackson at the start of tonight’s show.
AEW World Tag-Team Championships
Top Flight vs. The Gunns (C)
Dante Martin starts out by throwing Austin Gunn across the ring with a huge springboard hip toss, and he then launches Colten Gunn across the ring too when he tags in. Top Flight then clotheslines the champions out of the ring to continue dominating. Austin turns it around by grabbing the hair of Dante which pushes him to the ropes where Colten yanks him down onto the top rope.
The champions continue to dominate with some frequent tags as Colten drops Dante with a clothesline, but he then misses with a splash into the corner. However, Austin blocks the tag only for Dante to dive over both men to make it happen. Darius charges in and attacks both men, suplexing Austin and hitting a standing Splash Fly to Colten, forcing him to kick out. Dante sees a blind tag attempt and he plants Austin onto the mat but he kicks out.
Dante then looks for a Nose Dive but Colten grabs the boot until Darius wipes him out with a dive outside the ring. Dante nails the Nose Dive, but Colten scrambles back at the last second to break it up. Meanwhile outside the ring, The Kindom appear and start beating up Darius. This leads to Dante running into a Shatter Machine when he is distracted so the champions retain.
Winners and STILL AEW World Tag-Team Champions: The Gunns
Once the match wraps up, we see The Kingdom heading out through the crowd. The theme for FTR hits and out comes Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler with microphones in-hand.
They confront The Gunns in the ring and a match is made where FTR will quit AEW if they lose, while The Gunns will put their tag-team titles on-the-line. After the agreement is made, The Gunns spit in FTR’s face and walk off.
Jade Cargill Addresses Taya Valkyrie Using Her “Jaded” Finisher
Now we shoot backstage where Renee Paquette is standing by with TBS Women’s Champion Jade Cargill and her lawyer, “Smart” Mark Sterling and Leila Grey. We hear Jade Cargill complain about Taya Valkyrie using her Jaded finisher to win in her AEW in-ring debut.
She has Sterling read some legal mumbo jumbo and then Leila Grey grabs the mic and challenges Valkyrie to a match on Rampage.
No DQ FTW Championship
Stokely Hathaway vs. HOOK (C)
We head back inside the arena and Stokely Hathaway makes his way out in a Nation Of Domination-style Karate gi ready for his no disqualification showdown with HOOK for the FTW Championship.
Stokely settles in the ring and then his music dies down. The theme for HOOK plays and as we listen to the sounds of Action Bronson, the FTW Champion heads down to the ring with his no-nonsense style.
After both guys are in the ring, Stokely gets on the mic and tries getting out of this one, claiming he has a note from AEW doctor Sampson that confirms he is not medically cleared to compete tonight. He then announces his retirement.
It is learned that it is not a doctors note, but instead a receipt. The referee calls for the bell. Stokely tries running off but HOOK chases after him and gets his paws on him. He starts to beat down the non-wrestler and then throws him back into the ring.
HOOK reaches under the ring and grabs an unprotected guard rail piece. He heads into the ring with it as Matt Hardy and other members of The Firm are shown watching on a monitor backstage and looking nervous. Stokely ends up catching HOOK by surprise with a fire extinguisher.
He grabs a steel chair and says into the TV camera, “I ain’t a killa’ but don’t push me … that’s 2Pac!” He heads into the ring and HOOK takes the chair from him and then wears him out with it. He then launches him with a t-bone suplex into the guard rail. He pretends to pin him but pulls his head up and then slaps his Red Rum finisher on him for the win.
Winner and STILL FTW Champion: HOOK
“All Ego” Ethan Page Next For FTW Champion?
Once the match wraps up, we see another shot of The Firm guys watching on the monitor backstage looking dejected. We hear Matt Hardy trying to give a pep talk to “All Ego” Ethan Page, telling him he’s the guy to beat the FTW Champion HOOK. After this, we head to a commercial break.
Adam Cole Gets His Opponent For Next Week
Adam Cole hypes the fact he is back wrestling in just seven days, and right now he feels freaking great. He has never been more ready or prepared to get back into the ring and do what he loves, which is wrestle for AEW. He knows people want to know who his opponent will be. However, before he can continue talking Danil Garcia makes his way out and asks who is ready for storytime with Daniel Garcia.
He tells Cole that since he has been gone, Garcia has become a veteran and a locker-room leader. He says because of that he must come out and welcome Cole back and put him in his place too. Garcia then lists off some of the people he has beaten during Cole’s absence and he claims he has been the lifeblood of the company so why should he welcome Cole back? He has been proving that he is one of the best pro wrestl…he stops himself and calls himself one of the best sports entertainers. Garcia asks what makes Cole special, and he says they ring the bell, that’s what.
Cole says Garcia is really good and someday he will lead the charge, but his problem is the company that he keeps. Cole says he is still Adam Cole bay bay, he’s a multi-time World Champion and has fought and beaten some of the best and when he was sitting at home he was hoping and praying for a second chance and it looks like he found it. Cole says if Garcia is crazy enough to challenge him next week, then he’s on. But he reminds him it’s not just his return match, it is a statement that one of the best wrestlers on the planet is back. He hopes Garcia knows what he’s in for, because next week will be a great night for him and the fans, but for Garcia…not so much.
Alex Marvez Interviews Kenny Omega & Don Callis
Now we shoot backstage and see Alex Marvez enter The Elite locker room. We see an agitated Kenny Omega saying he should be with Matt Jackson right now. Don Callis tries talking him off the ledge saying he’s got an important match tonight.
Jon Moxley vs. Stu Grayson
Stu Grayson immediately takes the fight to Jon Moxley, but the veteran gives as much as he gets with a few chops of his own. Grayson holds nothing back with a few knees to the midsection, but then gets caught with a suplex as Moxley then charges Grayson off the ring apron as he smashes into the barricade. Back inside the ring, Grayson nails a few forearms but Moxley shrugs them off and drops him with just one.
Grayson once again fires back and drops Moxley with a dropkick, following it up with more forearm strikes, but Moxley nails a lariat in the corner before flipping him in mid-air to land Grayson down. Moxley hits a piledriver, but Grayson manages to kick out so Moxley hammers down with several stomps to the face of The Dark Order star. Grayson then drops Moxley and fires down the elbow strikes himself before planting him down and then springboarding off the middle rope to crush Moxley.
Outside the ring, the rest of Blackpool Combat Club argue with The Dark Order so Grayson moonsaults to take them out and then back inside the ring he lands a 450 Splash, but Moxley kicks out! Grayson then looks for the Night Fall, but Moxley reverses it into the Bulldog Choke which he transitions into a front headlock with knee strikes, but Grayson gets out of the choke with a cannonball with Moxley on his back.
He then hits a backflipping kick which takes Moxley down again and the two men then end up on the top turnbuckle as Moxley hits an Avalanche Death Rider for the win.
Winner: Jon Moxley
Ricky Starks Issues Open Challenge To Juice Robinson
After the match, we shoot backstage where Renee Paquette is standing by with Ricky Starks, She asks him about the back-and-forth with Juice Robinson. A very agitated “Absolute” Ricky Starks says he’s sick of the talking and issues an open challenge to Juice. If he accepts, fine, if not, go away. He walks off and we head to another commercial break.
QTV Makes Title Match Announcement
Once we settle back in from the break, we shoot to the latest QTV segment. They talk about Rey Fenix and show footage of Powerhouse Hobbs beating him down and then mocking him for not having Penta El Zero Miedo help him. The guys then announce another open challenge for the TNT Championship for Hobbs for this week’s Rampage. It will be against Penta El Zero Miedo.
Skye Blue vs. Toni Storm
We hear the bell sound to get this one officially off-and-running. Storm immediately charges across the ring and starts going to work on Blue. We see Blue hit a big dive onto Storm as the action spills out to the floor.
Back in the ring, Storm works Blue over and knocks her back out to the floor with a running butt-bump. Saraya and Ruby Soho run over and put the boots to her before Storm comes out and peppers her with chops. She goes for one too many, as Blue moves and she chops the steel ring post.
Storm sells that briefly and then resumes kicking Blue’s ass as we head to a mid-match commercial break as the action continues.
We return from the break and we see Skye Blue make an incredible comeback on offense, but The Outcasts get involved again and after a hip-attack from Storm and a Storm Zero, she picks up the win.
Winner: Toni Storm
The Outcasts Run Off By Riho, Willow Nightingale
Once the match wraps up, as the commentators sing the praises of Skye Blue for an impressive performance in a losing outing, we see The Outcasts hitting the ring with spray paint cans.
They get ready to spray the “L” on Blue, but Riho and Willow Nightingale run down to make the save. Riho has a pipe in her hands to ensure they stay away.
Blackpool Combat Club Attacks Stu Grayson
The commentators run down the lineup for AEW Rampage this Saturday night and then they inform us that we are going to shoot backstage for a medical update on Stu Grayson of The Dark Order.
As the cameras show the officials checking on Grayson’s arm backstage, we see Jon Moxley and the rest of the Blackpool Combat Club arrive and catch Grayson without his Dark Order back-up. Mox chokes him out and the BCC beat him down and leave him laying. We then head to another commercial break.
El Hijo Del Vikingo vs. Kenny Omega
We return from the break to the ring entrance of El Hijo Del Vikingo. The fans give the decorated international pro wrestling star a very respectful rock-star reaction coming out. He settles in the ring and his music dies down.
“The Dapper Yapper” Justin Roberts handles the extra sarcastic, overly complimentary and achievement-listing ring introduction of Kenny Omega. “The Cleaner” emerges accompanied by Don Callis and as fireworks and pyro explode, a clearly distracted Elite leader heads to the ring.
As Omega heads to the ring, the commentators point out that Omega is distracted by the situation surrounding Matt Jackson. As Omega nears the ring, Del Vikingo dives and splashes onto Omega to kick this one off in style.
He hits another big spot and then brings Omega into the ring. He goes to work on Omega in the corner until Omega turns him and drills him with a bunch of shots. The ref separates the two long enough to ring the bell.
Now that the bell has sounded we’re officially off-and-running with this one. Omega starts off well but Del Vikingo goes to work on him with a variety of kicks in the corner. He then hits the craziest hurricanrana you’ve ever seen off the ropes in the corner. He follows that up with a wild kick and then a dive onto Omega on the floor.
The fans immediately break out in a loud “This is Awesome!” chant. He hits a Shooting Star Press off the ring apron but also hurts himself on the way down. The fans break out in crazy-loud “AEW! AEW!” chants.
Don Callis looks down at both guys, prompting Excalibur to mention how normally Callis would be on commentary with them but isn’t because of the significance of tonight’s match. The action resumes inside the ring with Del Vikingo leading the charge.
Back in the ring, Omega starts to fight back into competitive form, blasting Del Vikingo with some vicious chops that shifts the offensive momentum into his favor as the fans break out in dueling chants in support of both guys.
As Omega continues to dominate the action, we see him head out to the floor where he reaches under the ring and pulls out a table. He sets it up and heads over to Del Vikingo as fans chant “We Want Tables!” We then head to a mid-match commercial break as the action continues.
We return from the break and see Omega and Del Vikingo fighting on the ring apron outside of the ring ropes near the table set-up down below at ringside. Omega hits a wild monkey-flip on Del Vikingo, but he just lands on the hard part of the ring apron, not the floor.
Omega teases a snap-dragon suplex on Del Vikingo through the table. Del Vikingo avoids it and ends up on the top-rope. He then shifts over to standing on the tip-top of the steel ring post where he leaps off and hits an insane dragon-rana to bring Omega out to the floor the hard way. Ouch.
The fans react with a very appropriate “Holy sh*t” chant followed by an even louder “This is Awesome!” chant as the action resumes inside the ring.
We see Del Vikingo hit another insane spot on Omega off the ropes in the corner and then an even crazier power bomb follow-up for a super close pin attempt.
Kenny Omega starts to fight back into the offensive lead. He hits one of his semi-finishers for a close near fall but Del Vikingo kicks out. Now Omega hits a Full Nelson into a stiff snap-dragon suplex. He plays to the fans and then sets Del Vikingo up for the V-Trigger, which he connects with.
Now we see Omega going for the One Winged Angel, but Del Vikingo avoids it and hits a swan reverse hurricanrana on Omega. Wow. He lays a lifeless Omega across the table set up at ringside. He runs and hits the ropes and leaps off the ropes with a 630 splash that puts Omega through the table. This is the craziest match you’ll ever see. There. I said it.
We see highlights of that insane spot as a fan is shown praying in the crowd. The fans break out in a thunderous “AEW! AEW!” chant as Don Callis looks on in shock.
The two fight back-and-forth again and then Del Vikingo goes for the 630 splash again, but this time Omega moves. Omega follows up with the One-Winged Angel and pulls off the pin fall victory in a match that is getting one of the most well-deserved standing ovations in recent memory.
Winner: Kenny Omega
Tony Schiavone heads down to the ring to interview Kenny Omega. “The Cleaner” talks about how he’s not sure he can put his body through these type of matches too many more times. Before he can say anything else, he is attacked from behind by the Blackpool Combat Club.
We see the BCC beating down The Elite leader in the ring and then we hear some ambulance / fire truck sirens. We see the ambulance on the big screen and then “Hangman” Adam Page exits the driver’s side of the vehicle as Excalibur mentions that he stole the ambulance.
Page heads towards the arena with a weapon in-hand. The fans go nuts and chant his name and then his catchy theme song hits and the purveyor of Cowboy sh*t heads to the ring with a weapon in-hand and violent intentions in-mind. He heads inside the ring and the BCC exits.
Don Callis goes to get Page’s attention and Hangman nearly blasts him with the weapon but stops himself. He turns around and shakes the arm of Callis off of him. Callis over-dramatically slams himself down to the mat and pulls an Eddie Guerrero chair-switch routine acting hurt as Omega recovers and sees Page standing in front of a laid out Callis with a weapon. Omega grabs Page and the two bicker. Omega then leaves with Callis as this week’s show goes off the air on that note. Thanks for joining us!
