AEW Dynamite Preview: September 30, 2026 – A Tribute to PAC
AEW Dynamite airs tonight at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on TBS and HBO Max from the Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Tonight's broadcast will be a tribute to Benjamin Satterley, aka PAC, who tragically died this past Sunday. All Elite Wrestling will honor the life, career and legacy of one of the greatest people to ever come into our lives, as so many have done by sharing their stories and memories of such a wonderful, kind human being, who left such an amazing legacy that will never be forgotten.
A native of Newcastle upon Tyne, England, Satterley began his wrestling career in 2004 and went on to perform for wrestling organizations all over the world, captivating fans with innovative high-flying moves and incredible in-ring ability that made his matches must-see for fans and peers alike. With awe-inspiring performances across Europe, Japan and North America, PAC influenced and helped bring a new fleet of hard-hitting high-fliers to the forefront, which significantly changed the evolution and trajectory of professional wrestling.
PAC signed with All Elite Wrestling in 2019 as part of the original roster and immediately found himself in rivalries with both “Hangman” Adam Page and Kenny Omega, the latter of which concluded when the two had one of the biggest matches in Dynamite history in a 30-minute Iron Man Match. Just days later, PAC defeated Orange Cassidy at the inaugural AEW Revolution, in a match that stitched itself into the fabric of AEW forever with a perfect blend of contrasting styles to create moments that gave both men and a still-young company a much bigger spotlight.
PAC became the first to hold the AEW All-Atlantic Championship (now known as the AEW International Championship) when he won a 4-way at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2022. PAC went on to form a successful trios team with Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix, known as Death Triangle. They went on to win the AEW World Trios Championship and famously defended those titles against The Elite’s Omega and the Young Bucks in a best-of-seven series that spanned from November 2022 to January 2023. PAC was part of the Death Riders since their inception at All Out 2024 and went on to win the AEW World Trios Title again with Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta en route to a 234-day reign. PAC’s final match took place this past Saturday at All Out, when he and AEW International Champion Andrade El Idolo rekindled their old rivalry with a fantastic match to open the event.
As part of tonight's broadcast, we’ll see two of PAC’s most iconic rivals, AEW World Champion Will Ospreay and Ricochet, fighting one-on-one in honor of our fallen friend.
Please join us to honor and pay tribute to PAC. Tonight is for Ben!
