All-Atlantic Championship Qualifying Match!


The House of Black’s Buddy Matthews (with Malakai Black, Brody King, and Julia Hart) vs. Death Triangle’s “The Bastard” PAC!


The House of Black returned to the locker room for this match.

PAC spiked Buddy with a DDT back into the ring! Buddy got to his feet and he and PAC traded clubbing blows. Buddy up kicked PAC. “The Bastard” fired back with two kicks and then cradled Matthews for a near fall. Buddy jumped up with a rising knee strike to PAC but PAC rallied back with a lariat.

“PAC is the first man to punch his ticket to the FORBIDDEN DOOR,” said Excalibur.


The Death Triangle came out to celebrate with PAC.


The House of Black walked out and gathered Buddy Matthews, giving the evil eye to the Death Triangle.


Eddie Kingston was backstage with a microphone.


Kingston: “Jack Hager you cost me a chance to be World Champion. Garcia, I hate you! 2point0, I hate you. Chris Jericho I hope you’re watching this. Jake, I want you on RAMPAGE and I’m gonna fight you.”



Trent Beretta was in the ring with a microphone.


Beretta: “A few weeks ago, myself and Rocky Romero had a chance for the ROH Tag Championships. While we didn’t win, we didn’t lose either. FTR, I know you’re fighting champs, so why don’t you come out here.”


ROH World Tag Team Champions FTR Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler came out to the ring!


Cash: “As much as this pains me to say, because we are fighting champs, we didn’t lose against Roppongi Vice, but we didn’t win either. And we want to prove we’re the best tag team on this planet.”


Harwood: “Trent, your partner is in Japan but the problem you have shouldn’t be with us but with the guys that attacked you. If it were up to me—”


United Empire leader Will Ospreay walked onto the stage, while inside the ring, Aussie Open and Aaron Henare ambushed Trent and FTR! Ospreay nailed Trent with his Hidden Blade!


“What a shocker! Ospreay in All Elite!” said Jim Ross.


“Hangman” Adam Page vs. David Finlay!


Adam Cole #BayBay joined the commentary team for this match.


Finlay caught Page with a dropkick. Finlay grabbed a front face lock. He followed up with a shoulder tackle to Adam Page. Finlay tried for the dropkick again but Page dodged it.


Adam Page flew to the outside with an elbow suicida to Finlay. Back in the ring, David Finlay chop blocked Adam Page. This enraged Page and he blasted Finlay with chops and then a lariat. Page jumped over the top rope and smashed into Finlay. Page powerbombed Finlay for a near fall.


“These guys have been throwing heavy shots for some time now. Eventually something has to give,” said Adam Cole.


Finlay fought out of the deadeye and then hit Page with a back breaker. Finlay charged at Page with an explosive uppercut.


“Page is in serious, serious trouble,” said Excalibur.


“Hangman” Page came out of nowhere with the buckshot lariat, turning Finlay inside-out, and then scored the pin!


“Page rebounds from DOUBLE OR NOTHING with a win here tonight, and Adam Cole is incensed,” said Excalibur.



“Hangman” Page: “There’s a lot I want to say about the AEW World Championship. But tonight is not the night. Tonight I wasn’t in the battle royale and it doesn’t look like I’m going to get a title shot anytime soon.


“But since that’s the case, I remember there’s not only one world championship in professional wrestling. So the last Sunday in June, FORBIDDEN DOOR, I want the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship and I want Okada!”


Adam Cole: “You have got to be kidding me! Are you really that delusional? Okada might not even be the world champion. It could be my good buddy Jay White. And Page, you’re not even a champion. If anyone should get a shot, it’s me, because I am the new franchise player here. So I highly suggest you stay out of my way. And that’s not cowboy s—t, that’s a promise. Boom!”


Tony Schiavone was in the ring to interview Wardlow!


Schiavone: “Wardlow opted not to be in the battle royale because I know there’s something on your mind, big guy.”


Wardlow: “Welcome to Wardlow’s world. You’re right, Tony, I asked not to take part in the battle royale. The reason being CM Punk is our champion. So if I’m not making him tap or pinning his shoulders to the mat, I don’t want it yet. So heal up real quick champ, because I’ll be waiting for you when you get back.


“Now there is a title I do want. I title that few men have carried that brought an incredible amount of respect to it. I want the TNT Title. It’s time for a change around here.”


TNT Champion Scorpio Sky walked out onto the ramp. Dan Lambert and Ethan Page scrambled out, trying to calm Scorpio Sky down.


Wardlow: “I’m All Elite now, I’ll wait until you’re 110%.”


Backstage, “Smart” Mark Sterling said Wardlow could face him in court, or face 20 security guards in the ring next week!


The Young Bucks were backstage being filmed by Brandon Cutler.


Matt Jackson: “We want our world titles back—”


Matt and Jeff Hardy interrupted the Bucks.


Matt Hardy: “We beat the two of you at DOUBLE OR NOTHING. If anyone deserves a title shot, it’s us.”



Christian Cage walked in with AEW World Tag Team Champions Jurassic Express.


Christian Cage: “I’m going to throw out a challenge. Next week, right here on DYNAMITE, for the World Tag Team Titles, the Hardys vs. the Young Bucks vs. Jurassic Express for the World Tag Team Titles in a ladder match.”


Next week it’s a 3-way Ladder Match for the AEW World Tag Team Championships!
