AEW Dynamite Results

Hangman Adam Page in-ring promo

Mexico City erupted as Page strutted to the ring. He delivered a promo in Spanish, recalling a farm from his childhood where he was raised around Mexicans. Due to this, he stated that Mexicans are incredibly hard workers, and when working together, that’s when everyone is at their best. He thanked the crowd for welcoming him and AEW into their home. He concluded by indicating he’ll keep a close eye on Jon Moxley during the main event.

Bandido, Templario, Atlantis Jr, Atlantis, Adam Cole, Brody King, and Daniel Garcia defeated Hechicero, Protoshita (Kyle Fletcher & Konosuke Takeshita), Lance Archer, Dax Harwood, Volador Jr., and Josh Alexander

Takeshita and Bandido wrestled to a standstill until the latter unleashed a Hurricanrana. Hechicero met him next, grounding him with surprise maneuvers and holds. Garcia came after, using core strength to circumvent Hechicero’s technical machinations. Atlantis Jr and Harwood followed, with the luchador tagging in Templario for an assisted Dropkick + German Suplex combo. Volador Jr joined Harwood, but both suffered a tijeras by Atlantis Jr and Templario.

Archer surmounted King, leading Cole to kill two birds with…two stones to displace Archer and Alexander. Fletcher and Cole came together, with the former landing a Half and Half Suplex. Atlantis wore down Fletcher, leading to the entire opposing team chopping him down. Bandido took the baton from Garcia to unleash a Press Slam on Alexander. He later avoided a Doomsday Device from Alexander and Takeshita. Atlantis Jr nearly took out Fletcher to rapturous boos, but Alexander tossed him over to a huge ovation. Garcia, Bandido, Cole, and Atlantis Jr cornered their foes at all four posts, raining fists down upon them.

Bedlam ensued, with everyone but King and Archer spilling to the outside. The gargantuan goliaths struck fiercely and true; King sent the Murderhawk tumbling. He then shockingly flung Hechicero to Takeshia with an impressive Hurricanrana for his size. Harwood assaulted Atlantis, but fell to an Inside Cradle.

A blast of a first match. Everyone got to shine except Atlantis, but he didn’t have to. He did enough in his career, and it was just nice to see him have a moment as a legend. Atlantis Jr getting heat but Alexander getting cheers was funny.

Kazuchika Okada (with Don Callis) defeated Mark Briscoe

Okada kept avoiding Briscoe, mocking him, just to bait him in with his dynamic approach. He fell to a Crane Kick, leading to Briscoe to target his midsection in the corner. The Sussex County Chicken flew between the top ropes to send The Rainmaker crashing into the barricade. An elevated dropkick courtesy of Okada plummeted Briscoe to the outside. Briscoe thwarted a Rainmaker attempt with an enzuigiri.

Okada gouged his opponent’s eyes, only to be sent mat-prone with a shoulder tackle. A neckbreaker set Briscoe up for a flying elbow. Briscoe bit Okada’s finger while he was signaling an impending Rainmaker. Okada teased a Rainmaker, and Briscoe hinted at a Jay Driller. A Tombstone Piledriver dazed Briscoe enough to defeat him via a finally successful Rainmaker.

Post-match, Mexico cheered for Kenny Omega while Don Callis accompanied Okada in bullying the beaten Briscoe brother.

Phenomenal singles match between wrestlers of unique chemistry. Arena Mexico loved this one.

Mistico defeated MJF (via disqualification)

Arena Mexico sang along to Mistico’s theme in an emotional entrance. MJF taunted them for this by sneaking any attack he could on the luchador. Mistico dropped MJF with a Code Red, leading to a chase blocked by the Hurt Syndicate. MJF ambushed him from there, dragging him to the ring to some crude chants from the Mexican audience. MJF crushed Mistico with a backbreaking powerbomb on his knee. Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin punished Mistico on the barricade and ring apron.

MJF enraged the crowd with mask-tearing teases and an inappropriate crotch taunt. Mistico launched himself from a top rope crossbody to crumple the American on the outside. A prepared MJF dodged another top rope, but recovered immediately with a scoop slam.

On the ramp, MJF lured Mistico for a Tombstone Piledriver. Referee Bryce Remsburg attempted to check on the fallen luchador, nevertheless was dragged to the ring by MJF. Rembsburg proceeded with a ten-count in Spanish while Mistico broke it by re-entry. Mistico couldn’t capitalize on time after a Spanish Fly from the top rope. La Mistica tapped MJF out, but Remsburg was distracted by MVP. MJF ended the match, forfeiting by disqualification courtesy of a low-blow.

Post-match, The Hurt Syndicate ganged up on Mistico and removed his mask. Mexico City jeered at MJF donning Mistico’s mask. Templario, Bandido, and Titan caught their attention so “Speedball” Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight could disrupt them from behind.

Match of the night thus far. Mistico beloved by his hometown while MJF was the stereotypical American jock, adding the right amounts of levity and drama. Regardless of the finish, the moment between the bells was all that mattered.

Mascara Dorada versus Ricochet versus Hologram versus Lio Rush

Ricochet and Rush joined allegiances to keep Hologram and Dorada trodden. The Americans then sought tope maneuvers but were toppled instead by the luchadores. Hologram nearly had both Americans at their wits’ end, but Ricochet circumvented his aspirations while Rush incapacitated the already dizzied Dorada. At last free from Ricochet and Rush (temporarily), Dorada and Hologram traded high-octane lucha offense.

Dorada landed a fantastic round kick to Rush.. With a hurricanrana to Dorada, Rush regained his momentum.. Still embittered by Ricochet turning earlier in the match, Rush stumbled into the clutches of Hologram. With a Mosquetero, Hologram won the match, therefore winning 4 million pesos.

Ricochet and Lio Rush were absolute dicks. This gave Mascara Dorada and Hologram plenty of time to shine, and they performed brilliantly.

Mercedes Mone defeated Zeuxis (c) (CMLL World Women’s Championship)

Zeuxis sussed out Mone’s generous handshake gesture from the start, using the time to chip away at the belt collector. Mone knocked the champion back with a Meteora, countered by a hurricanrana. Tope suicida blasts Mone onto the floor, rattling her. Spanish Fly by Zeuxis brings Mone closer, but not quite at the edge of defeat. Reverse-hurricanrana by Mone, followed by a Backstabber and a Statement Maker, aren’t enough. Zeuxis almost powerbombed Mone from the top rope, but Mone twisted at the last second for a powerslam to become the new CMLL World Women’s Champion.

Post-match, Toni Storm starred in a noire film vignette. Mina Shirakawa appeared as a ruse from the entrance so Storm could surprise Mone. Dressed as a blond Carmen Sandiego, or a “woman in red”, she nearly secured a Storm Zero on her upcoming All In opponent.

Hard-hitting match, and impactful as a result. Mercedes Mone’s ongoing library of belts adds to such a palpable threat to Storm’s reign. All across the world, she’s cemented herself and now she has to get the top brass in AEW. Only one woman stands in her way.

Death Riders (Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta), The Beast Mortos, and The Young Bucks (Nicholas Jackson & Matthew Jackson) defeated The Opps, Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland

Excalibur on commentary mentioned that Mortos was included as a replacement in the match due to travel issues for Claudio Castagnoli. Mortos blasted away against the still-knackered Ospreay, yet toppled after a hurricanrana. Matthew slingshot Ospreay to the turnbuckle, granting Nicholas a stomp to the Aerial Assassin. The Young Bucks approached with a double-lariat attempt, but Ospreay rerouted them until Matthew propelled Nicholas for a hurricanrana.

Strickland joined Ospreay in tormenting Yuta in the corner. Ospreay and Strickland combined a Standing Shooting Star Press and Swerve Stomp, respectively, but Yuta persevered.  Nearly securing a Coquina Clutch, Joe and Moxley tumbled once all of their teammates broke up the action.

Amid the chaos, Ospreay sent many men over using a Sky Twister Press. Moxley grounded Ospreay with a Kimura Lock, but Ospreay escaped it and a sleeper hold. Hobbs drove Yuta to the corner like a locomotive, clobbering him with forearms once they collided into a corner. Mortos clashed mid-air with Hobbs before headbutting Shibata like a weapon of mass destruction.

Mortos met with Joe in the ring to trade forearms, with the former spiking the latter. The Young Bucks were inches away from EVP Triggers on Ospreay, but he reversed it with a transition to a Double-Oscutter. Yuta annihilated him with a Buzaiku Knee. Shibata fired back with a Penalty Kick. Strickland and Ospreay allied to whittle down Moxley. Thanks to the Young Bucks and Marina Shafir, Moxley snatched a pinfall with a rollup to Ospreay.

Post-match, the Death Riders, Mortos, and the Bucks kept Strickland isolated for a beatdown. “Hangman” Adam Page strolled fiercely to the ring and traded forearms with Moxley and Yuta. Aiming a Buckshot Lariat to Moxley, he instead landed it on Matthew Jackson, to which Nicholas pleaded for mercy. Moxley thought about using his briefcase to stop Page, but scurried away. The All In challenger then stared down the Bucks as they limped to the back.

Oh, this was heart-pounding. Everyone drove this match in their own way, hitting all their special spots and giving everyone equal time. All the callbacks did their jobs, building to an anticlimactic crescendo, and I think that was the point. Page’s entrance as a “Stone Cold” Steve Austin circa 1998-99 felt so right here, especially his Spanish-laden passionate promo that opened Grand Slam.

Closing thoughts

AEW must go to Mexico more often. The fans were nuts, and they were loud. The respect for culture was evident throughout. Pick any moment from this special and it can be run as a highlight for future video packages and documentaries. Lucha is on a grand stage this year.
