AEW Dynamite Preview: July 22, 2026 – Kenny Omega, Will Ospreay & Jon Moxley vs. Don Callis Family, Knight Defends TNT Title Against Allin, AEW Women's World Tag Championship No DQ Match

AEW Dynamite is LIVE TONIGHT from The Pinnacle in Nashville, Tennessee, on TBS and HBO Max at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT! With AEW Redemption in Montreal just four days away, everyone is feeling the pressure heading into the weekend, especially with such a loaded card on tap for tonight.

The unlikely trio of AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, Will Ospreay and AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley will face the Don Callis Family's Brian Cage, Hechicero and Jake Doyle after a tense confrontation during Omega’s AEW Championship celebration last week. TNT Champion “The Jet” Kevin Knight was also part of that confrontation last week, and before he faces Omega for the AEW World Title at Redemption, Knight puts his TNT Title on the line against Darby Allin, who has been on a path of payback ever since Knight's brutal attack at Double or Nothing.

The AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship is on the line in a No DQ match as two-thirds of the NEW Artist of STARDOM Champions, Sisters of Sin Skye Blue and Julia Hart, challenge the champs, Divine Dominion’s “Colossal” Lena Kross and “Megasus” Megan Bayne. Plus, AEW Women's World Champion Thekla and Willow Nightingale come face-to-face days before their Redemption title showdown. And “Switchblade” Jay White continues Bang Bang Gang’s rivalry with The Dogs when he goes one-on-one with Clark Connors.

It’s the final Dynamite before Redemption! Here’s everything you need to know.

AEW Dynamite Tonight in Nashville

AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, Will Ospreay & AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley vs. Don Callis Family's Brian Cage, CMLL World Heavyweight Champion Hechicero & Jake Doyle

What started as Kenny Omega’s AEW World Championship celebration turned into this highly unlikely trios match. After “The Jet” Kevin Knight secured a shot at Omega for the AEW World Title at Redemption when he interrupted the celebration, he blasted Omega with a microphone, which set off a short brawl between the Don Callis Family and Omega and Ospreay, until Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli showed up to back up Ospreay. Now, Omega finds himself on the same team as a pair of Death Riders – and his close friends, the Young Bucks, don’t trust any of it, for the record. That’s why they challenged Moxley and Ospreay to face them at Redemption. Before that happens, we’ll see if all these combustible elements blow up during this Dynamite trios tilt.

TNT Championship Match: "The Jet" Kevin Knight (c) vs. Darby Allin

Ever since Knight’s heinous attack on Allin at Double or Nothing after the latter’s loss to MJF, Allin has been on a path of payback that has finally brought him to a TNT Championship match with Knight tonight on Dynamite. 

It was only minutes after Knight secured that aforementioned shot at Kenny Omega and the AEW World Championship at Redemption that Allin blindsided him. And he can’t get away from Allin tonight. Allin is a two-time TNT Champion, and with 214 days over those two reigns, no one has held the championship for longer. Although Knight beat Allin and took him out of the 2025 Continental Classic, Allin successfully defended the AEW World Championship against Knight two months ago during his breakneck reign. 

Knight is coming off a record-setting ninth TNT Championship defense against AR Fox over the weekend on Collision, but how will he handle Allin tonight before trying to become “Jet2Belts” on Sunday against Omega?

AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship Match (No DQ): Divine Dominion (“Colossal” Lena Kross and “Megasus” Megan Bayne) (c) vs. Artist of STARDOM Champions Sisters of Sin (Skye Blue and Julia Hart)

Two weeks ago at Beach Break, Divine Dominion laid out Sisters of Sin on the ramp. At the same time, Mercedes Moné took out AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla and Willow Nightingale with the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament Championship. That shot across the bow revealed that Moné and Divine Dominion were working together, but it also gave Hart and Blue new enemies. 

The chaotic pair joined Thekla in Japan over the weekend to win the Artist of STARDOM trios titles from God’s Eye. Sisters of Sin wasted no time in challenging Kross and Bayne to a no disqualification match for the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship. 

Divine Dominion have been dominant champions, with five successful title defenses and a 14-0 record as a team, but this environment plays to the strengths of the toxic Blue and Hart. This one should get wild, so who will walk out of Nashville as the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions?

AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla & Willow Nightingale Face-to-Face

Just four days before their AEW Women's World Championship match at Redemption, Thekla and Willow Nightingale will come face-to-face in Nashville tonight. Nightingale made her surprise return from injury two weeks ago in the Casino Gauntlet at Dynamite Beach Break and won the match to earn her fourth shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship. After the match, Mercedes Moné took out both Thekla and Nightingale with belt shots to the head! 

While Moné waits in the wings for her AEW Women’s World Title match at All In: London, Nightingale wants to meet her there as champion, but Thekla has championship plans of her own for Moné. Tonight, though, it’s all about Thekla and Nightingale coming face-to-face before they battle in Montreal on Sunday.

"100 Proof" Clark Connors of The Dogs vs. “Switchblade” Jay White of Bang Bang Gang

Jay White has had The Dogs in his crosshairs since returning to AEW, and tonight, he’ll have his first singles match in nearly 16 months when he goes one-on-one with Clark Connors in Nashville. White extended the challenge this past weekend on Collision, although he clearly wants a shot at David Finlay, too.  White must first handle the dangerous and ruthless Connors, who would love nothing more than to put White back on the shelf. The latest chapter between The Dogs and Bang Bang Gang goes down tonight on Dynamite when White takes on Connors!
