AEW Dynamite Recap Tonight for Pittsburgh
“Hangman” Adam Page Addresses Kyle Fletcher, Lee Moriarty
AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page was backstage before his AEW World Championship Open Challenge later tonight, but first he gave his All Out challenger, TNT Champion “The Protostar” Kyle Fletcher a lot of praise for pushing him to such a level in their match. He wondered where Fletcher would go from here, but as a fighting AEW World Champion, he was set to face ROH World Pure Champion Lee Moriarty tonight. He told Moriarty to bring his best.
AEW World Tag Team Championship Match: Brodido (ROH World Champion Bandido and Brody King) (c) def. GOA (Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona)
It looked like we’d be starting with the two big men, Brody King and Toa Liona, until Bandido begged for the tag. The fearless Bandido unsuccessfully tried to chop Liona down to size, but it was Liona who powered Bandido down before bringing in Kaun to do the same. GOA went for an early double team, although unsuccessful, as Bandido averted danger and made the tag to his partner!
King chopped both opponents, sending Liona to the apron, while he focused on Kaun. After setting Kaun up on the top turnbuckle, King was poised for a superplex, but had his legs taken out, which caught him in the tree of woe. Liona took advantage with a big shoulder to the midsection, which opened the door to some additional tandem offense, although it was only enough for a two count.
GOA stayed in control for the next few minutes with quick tags and more combo offense, even getting in a cheap shot on Bandido to knock him off the apron. Immediately after, King was able to escape from GOA to trap them in their corner, yet there was no one to tag in his corner with Bandido still on the floor. King took that as a sign to return to the opposite corner with a cannonball to the downed Liona. That gave King the chance to finally tag Bandido.
He came flying out of his corner, bouncing back and forth between Liona and Kaun with lightning fast offense. Liona missed a big punch combination in the corner with Bandido dancing away from each swing with delight, before putting Liona down with a double boot. Kaun tried to cut Bandido off, but he was press slammed right into his partner.
Bandido tried a 21 Plex on the much larger Liona to no avail, leaving him open to more double team offense from GOA. King made the save by grabbing both Liona and Kaun from the top rope on each of his shoulders before taking them to the mat in a ridiculous display of power.
As King woofed for the dogs, he went for a splash on the outside, but Liona caught him and sent him into the timekeeper’s area. With referee Aubrey Edwards distracted by the chaos on the outside, Ricochet came off commentary and entered the ring with a chair to attack Bandido. Edwards saw it in time and ejected him from the match, just as Bandido nearly trapped Kaun in a pinning predicament for the win.
GOA put Bandido down with a double chokeslam, and when it looked like he was finished, King made the save in the nick of time! King sent Liona to the outside and followed with a big dive while Bandido hit the 21 Plex on Kaun for the successful AEW Tag Team Championship defense!
Who is The Conglomeration’s Mystery Partner? <shrugs>
Backstage, Alicia Atout was with Mark Briscoe, Hologram, Willow Nightingale, Kyle O’Reilly, and Roderick Strong ahead of tonight’s Trios Match against The Don Callis Family. Briscoe was fired up to be in Pittsburgh and to be tagging alongside Hologram, but Atout tried to find out who their mystery partner was.
Briscoe said the word of the day was mystery, so he couldn’t give anything away. However, he woke up this morning and decided to put on sunglasses because the future was so bright. And with that Briscoe and Hologram put on familiar sunglasses and exited with the rest after firing up the crowd one more time. Before he left, O’Reilly said, “Thank you, Jane. Where is my mind? Alicia.”
“CLON ACTIVATED…soon” flashed across the screen.
New AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander is Ready
Renee Paquette was with AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron to get a few words from the new champion. After some loud, positive affirmations from Cameron, Statlander said she’s a fighting champion and even though she loves her opponent tonight, Mina Shirakawa, someone must be her first. Before letting them go, Paquette asked Statlander about her association with the Death Riders.
Statlander had a simple, but confident response, echoing recent comments from Jon Moxley: “Things move really fast when you make decisions.” She stared a hole through Paquette as Cameron continued her antics.
AEW World Championship Open Challenge: “Hangman” Adam Page (c) def. ROH World Pure Champion Lee Moriarty
The AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page made his way to the ring first, as we took a deeper look at one of Pittsburgh’s best, Lee Moriarty.
As expected, Moriarty tried to grind down Page early with some chain wrestling, although Page was prepared and had no problem exchanging with Page until Moriarty threw a back elbow in the corner. That seemed to make Page change his approach, which went from respectful to intense.
With the pleasantries over, Page hit a big body slam and when Moriarty tried to bounce right back, Page immediately dropped him with a big boot. Unable to hide his pain, Page continued to grab at his neck and traps, which were covered in Kinesio tape from the beating he took at the hands of Fletcher in Toronto.
Moriarty took control for a short time when he sent Page headfirst into the second turnbuckle. He nearly won the match with a springboard clothesline from the apron, as his hometown showed him love despite the kick out.
Page bounced back with a fallaway slam and a big boot, although Moriarty was able to hang in with his amazing submission and reversal ability. He turned a Dead Eye into a sprawling Octopus submission on a standing Hangman before transitioning into a crossface. Page rolled through it, dropped Moriarty with a big clothesline and a Dead Eye for the successful AEW Championship defense after a great effort from the challenger.
Adam Copeland Goes Home?
After All Out on Saturday, Renee Paquette tried to get an update from Adam Copeland on his wife, Beth Copeland, after FTR hit her with a spike piledriver. He politely said he couldn’t speak and was joined by Christian Cage in the locker room. Clearly distraught with what happened to Beth, Adam said he couldn’t do this anymore and now his family was involved, so he had to go, and he might not come back. Cage understood: “I don’t have a family anymore; go take care of yours.”
“No, you do have family.” Copeland made that assurance to Cage and shook his hand before leaving.
FTR and Big Stoke Get Interrupted by Willow Nightingale!
With Tony Schiavone in the ring, he introduced Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler along with Big Stoke after running down their heinous actions toward Beth Copeland at All Out.
Once they made it to the ring, Schiavone told them what they did was the worst thing he’d ever seen in an AEW ring. Wheeler took the mic and said he needed to do this himself. He acknowledged the boos and hatred from the crowd and said he deserved it for what happened but quickly pivoted to blaming Adam for bringing his childhood best friend, Christian Cage, into all this, along with his wife.
Big Stoke forgave Beth for the spear she hit him with on Saturday, even though he was allegedly just going up the ramp to greet her. “They say that chivalry is dead, but I allowed, I allowed that woman to spear me!” He said the worst thing about it is that she doesn’t even work here!
Harwood wouldn’t apologize for dropping Adam on his neck or Cage on his brain, but he wanted to address Beth. Harwood said he would never purposely hurt her, and he was trying to intervene when she went after his best friend, Cash. “You punched me in my broken nose. You watered my eyes. You punched me in my nose, you watered my eyes, Beth. And when you attacked me, I thought it was your husband. So, I picked you up, and as Cash leapt off to your safety, I dropped you on your head by accident.”
After another insult by Harwood about Beth being a woman, he was interrupted by the music of Willow Nightingale. Nightingale called out FTR’s whining but said she’s here to talk about inspiration. She said women like Beth are why she was able to do all the things she’s done, including coming back from a broken neck to become All Elite!
“Women like Beth are the reason women like me don’t take sh*t from guys like you.”
That line bothered Harwood enough that he had to walk away, as Pittsburgh cheered on Willow. She gave them another chance to apologize or said they could leave the ring.
Big Stoke decided to address his former business associate, claiming it was past 9 p.m., so it had to be past Willow’s bedtime, unless she had a problem. And with that, she slapped him. Before anything else could happen, JetSpeed came out to even the odds. As FTR and Stoke went to leave, they turned back to attack, but “Speedball” Mike Bailey and “The Jet” Kevin Knight sent them from the ring with FTR grabbing Stoke to save him from further harm.
MJF Promises to Return Doing It His Way
We saw comments from MJF after All Out, where he lost to Mark Briscoe in a Tables N’ Tacks Match. He was beside himself because he was so angry. He reminded us how he was the biggest star in wrestling, and he was everywhere. Then, Adam Cole came into his life, and it might sound sappy, but he broke his heart. Then, he lost the AEW World Championship.
“I lost everything.”
He came back after rehabbing and knows he accomplished more in that time frame than anyone could dream of. “But something’s missing. I’m not MJF. I’m a caricature. I’m playing MJF. Since I lost my title, I’ve made so many mistakes just to force myself to snap out of it. And all the while created doubt after doubt after doubt. See these tacks all over my body? They aren’t tacks, they’re doubts.”
He said he can’t come back until he can look in the mirror and not see a fraud.
“Let’s face it, folks. Ospreay, Swerve, Hangman. You can [expletive] yourself all you want, but they were in my dust! And now I’m in theirs.”
MJF promised he won’t come back until he’s the most dangerous he’s ever been.
He grabbed a tack, put it in his mouth, and said “Doubt? There were times I’m sure you knew, I bit off more than I could check. But when there was doubt? I ate it up and I spit it out.”
After spitting out the tack, MJF promised to return doing things his way.
The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Mark Briscoe and Hologram) def. The Don Callis Family (AEW Unified Champion Kazuchika Okada, Konosuke Takeshita and Hechicero)
With The Don Callis Family by his side, Don Callis had something to say before the next match. He reminded everyone of his world-class painting skills and showed off some of his past work. Then, he asked for his latest masterpiece to be rolled out, which was a golden frame covered in a red sheet that was perfectly centered at the top of the entrance ramp.
“Unveil it!”
And the sheet dropped to reveal…ORANGE CASSIDY!
As “Where is My Mind?” blared, Cassidy stepped out from the wrecked picture with Callis shouting out instructions to attack. Rocky Romero charged right at Cassidy, who stepped to the side, as Romero went flying into the empty frame. Mark Briscoe and Hologram ran out to complete The Conglomeration’s trios team for their match with AEW Unified Champion Kazuchika Okada, Konosuke Takeshita and Hechicero.
OC got right in the ring to square up to Okada and Takeshita, although Takeshita stepped in front of Okada only for Okada to attack OC first. Cassidy hit a double dropkick with his hands in his pockets to take them both down and applied his sunglasses, although Takeshita and Okada immediately attacked. Briscoe made the save, and everyone spilled to the outside, except Cassidy. He lazily fell off the top rope onto the Family below!
The Conglomeration took turns hitting 10 punches in the corner on Hechicero with OC punctuating the end of it with a single punch!
Hologram and Hechicero paired off with The Alchemist taking control for the Family, as they continued to take cheap shots to keep the advantage. Hologram had his mobility weakened by Hechicero’s repeated attacks on his right leg.
After escaping the clutches of Hechicero and Takeshita, Hologram had to fight through Okada to finally make a tag to Mark Briscoe. The fresh Briscoe exploded on Okada and almost won the match with a Fisherman’s Buster. He tagged OC in, who immediately collapsed into his former friend Okada’s arms for a … hug?
Okada had none of it and slugged away at Orange Cassidy, but it was Takeshita who made the difference when he helped Okada hit his patented neckbreaker before the two dispatched of Briscoe and Hologram. OC came back with his devastating kicks to the shins of both Okada and Takeshita before hitting a double hurricanrana. Cassidy tagged Hologram back in, as both he and Hologram were able to take out Hechicero.
Takeshita and Hologram traded big impact moves with Hologram sending Takeshita out of the ring thanks to a Destroyer. Hechicero attacked Hologram, but Cassidy was there with an Orange Punch and Hologram followed with a Portal Bomb for the win!
Kyle Fletcher vs. Hologram Next Week on Dynamite
TNT Champion “The Protostar” Kyle Fletcher came out to the top of the ramp to address his loss to “Hangman” Adam Page at All Out, showing no loss of confidence because he showed he belonged in the main event.
Then, he turned his attention to Hologram and his 34-0 record, putting out the challenge for next week on the 6th Anniversary of AEW Dynamite. Title vs. Streak.
The match was made official by Tony Khan, so it’ll be Fletcher putting up his TNT Championship against Hologram’s undefeated streak.
Mina Shirakawa Will Bring Her Best to Kris Statlander
Renee Paquette had a chance to catch up with Interim ROH Women’s World TV Champion Mina Shirakawa before her match for the AEW Women’s World Championship against Kris Statlander in the main event. Shirakawa said she hasn’t heard from Toni Storm, but she fights for her, for herself, and for the title. If Toni wanted her best when they battled for the title, then she knew Toni would want the same tonight for Mina. She’s ready for Statlander!
Jurassic Express Returns Next Week
After their reunion at All Out, we look back at the history of Jack Perry and Luchasaurus from AEW Tag Team Champions to break up and now back together again. Jurassic Express returns on the 6th Anniversary of AEW Dynamite next week!
The Death Riders’ Claudio Castagnoli def. AEW World Trios Champion Powerhouse Hobbs of The Opps
Castagnoli entered alone and so did Hobbs, but he did so from the crowd. As soon as he hit the ring, these two powerful men started throwing huge shots.
Hobbs hit a pair of bodyslams and then Castagnoli fought off a third only for Hobbs to hit three more! The two spilled through the ropes to the outside, but Hobbs missed a shoulder block to a downed Claudio and crashed into the steel steps. Castagnoli picked up the massive Hobbs and deposited him the hard way in the front row before throwing him back over the rail in a similar fashion.
As Castagnoli remained in control, Hobbs fought back to his feet and won a strike exchange to get himself back into the match. Hobbs bounced Castagnoli from corner to corner with splashes, yet on the third attempt, Castagnoli was ready with an uppercut and dropped Hobbs. Hobbs battled through the pain to hit a big powerslam and followed with three more bodyslams. Castagnoli blocked a fourth, but Hobbs was able to fight through a small flurry to hit a huge clothesline.
PAC appeared on the apron with the distraction allowing Castagnoli to catch Hobbs with an uppercut from behind and roll him up for the win! Before anything else happened, Samoa Joe ran down to chase away PAC, but in the ring, Hobbs sent Claudio over the top rope to a waiting Joe. Then, PAC returned with Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia to attack Hobbs.
When the numbers were against The Opps, AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page hit the scene to provide backup, just as they did for him many times before. They held the ring as the Death Riders retreated through the crowd.
Tony Khan Announces AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship
It was time for our big announcement from AEW CEO, President and Founder Tony Khan. He said AEW is “Where the Best Wrestle” before talking up the greatness of the AEW’s women’s division. And with all that talent, it’s time to introduce new championships. Later this year, we’ll crown the first AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions! He threw it to Renee Paquette back in the arena to unveil the new gold!
AEW Women’s World Championship: Kris Statlander (c) def. Interim ROH Women’s World TV Champion Mina Shirakawa
Statlander made her first entrance as champion to huge applause from the appreciative Pittsburgh crowd, and it was time for our main event. However, Wheeler Yuta made yet another appearance to offer Statlander what has become regular words of encouragement.
Some early dancing and theatrics from Shirakawa quickly turned into a targeted attack on Statlander’s surgically repaired knee. With Statlander hobbling on the outside, Shirakawa hit her spinning splash to the floor!
Statlander fought through the onslaught to power her way back into the match, even as Shirakawa reversed Statlander’s offense repeatedly, the champion persevered. Perhaps Shirakawa got a little too confident, as she danced over Statlander too long, allowing Kris enough time to kick her challenger away.
After Statlander reversed a Glamour Bomb, Shirakawa reversed a Staturday Night Fever, only to have Statlander drop her head first, but it only got a two.
Shirakawa tried to stay on Statlander with strikes and transitioned that into a figure four, although the champion was able to make it to the ropes. Shirakawa hit a spinning backfist and went for another figure four, but Statlander reversed it into a Seatbelt pin to get the win!
Statlander Makes Her Death Riders Decision
As Statlander celebrated, Wheeler Yuta jumped in the ring to congratulate her, but Harley Cameron got to Statlander first for a hug. Meanwhile, Castagnoli, PAC and Daniel Garcia surrounded the ring, as Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir made their way to the ring.
Moxley stood across from Statlander, but it was Yuta who grabbed her in an embrace, which she seemed to reciprocate. Yuta raised her arm, offering congratulations, and saying welcome before Statlander dropped him with a shortarm clothesline. She ducked a Shafir attack and gave Moxley a double bird before escaping through the crowd with Cameron.
Darby Allin Chases the Death Riders Away with a Flamethrower!
As Statlander continued to mock the Death Riders from the crowd, Darby Allin appeared at the top of the ramp with a flamethrower! Initially, Moxley and company lined up at the bottom of the ramp, until Allin kept coming closer, igniting the flame more and more with each step. They continued to back up into the crowd with Allin taunting them from the ring steps.
“Jon, when are you gonna realize I’m never gonna quit? Jon Moxley. WrestleDream. I Quit Match!” With Allin keeping the flame hot, Moxley tried to laugh off the situation, as we learned that Allin would team with Statlander to face Yuta and Shafir in a Mixed Tag Match next week on the 6th Anniversary of Dynamite!
And that will do it from Pittsburgh!
