AEW Dynamite 11-6-19 - Full Gear Go-Home Show

Dark Order and Private Pary have what is called a Bronze Medal match to be put into a triple threat tag title match at Full Gear. They need to explain these wacky names before just doing them. Pac and Trent start things off with quick matwork. Pac stares down Orange and tosses Trent into the barricade. Pac hits a gorgeous spin dive to the floor and lands on his feet perfectly. Cassidy kicks away at Pac with the ref being blocked by Chuckie until Pac sends him down. Brainbuster on the floor from Pac leads to the Black Arrow and a 2.9 because the ref botches the count - so Pac just locks on the Brutalizer and the win.  Pac tells the fans to shut up and he's heard what Page said and he heard his swear word - but on Saturday in Baltimore at Full Gear, he will make an example of Page. Cody's announcement is next.

Backstage during the break, Evil Uno is laced up. Tony being Cody's Mean Gene is great. Tony and Cody as the modern-day Gene and Hogan is tremendous - they truly do have great chemistry. Cody gets totally drowned out by AEW chants. Cody talks about Bill Watts, Eddie Graham, and Dusty were titans at the box office and in the ring. He says that them being management, they were in-ring - like himself. He has told everyone that he's proud of AEW "THIS IS FREEDOM!" is such a great line in today's world. Cody starts to say that if he doesn't beat Jericho then he will never challenge for the AEW World Title again. He says that he didn't read about Jericho's upbringing in A Lion's Tale - which you can get for $3 and Jericho is nothing but a stupid dick.

Jericho needs the youth more than they need him and this match isn't about just him, it's about the dead, the living, his wife, his sister, and in 14 years, going from unwantable to un-goddamn-deniable! Cody hypes up A Match Beyond between the Elite and the inner circle. Perfect stuff - now we've got stakes that are higher than ever for the PPV and a future name for their variant of War Games.

Private Party vs. Dark Order is up for the bronze medals - which are legit bronze medals. Stu looks fantastic here with some impressive moves like a big standing uranage, double Pele kick and a skin the cat rana. Gin and Juice ends it on Grayson. Grayson was the glue here - his stock rose a lot. A tremendous video from Jericho airs showing that Jericho's biggest worry is getting the right bubbly after the match and Virgil says his talent is like Olive Garden's breadsticks - unlimited. Sammy had the best line of the video with Jericho being 48, in his prime, and being the youngest AEW Champion in history. This is the best thing ever.

Jamie Hayter's out to team with Emi Sakura dressed as Freddie Mercury. Exalibur announces AEW Countdown after Dynamite. Shanna's back teaming with Riho, who is just over. Shanna "hits" an uppercut. They need to maybe not shoot the non-Japanese women's strikes from the side to show all the light. Wheelbarrow drop for Riho gets 2. Shanny runs wild on Hayter and gets 2 off a forearm. Shanny lands a slick sliced bread and then a nasty butterfly DDT for 2.9. Hayter lands a gourdbuster on Shanna. Sakura and Riho are back in and Riho eats 2 on several cradles, gets 2 off of a counter, but gets la majistraled for the loss. This looked perfect given how much Riho's weight worked agaisnt her there.

Ross talks about THE EVOLUTION OF BRANDI and we get a spooky red room video of her. So now she's an uber-bitch and a heel and she'll be Kong's manager. Kong had NOTHING left five years ago and has less now. Brandon Cutler's in the ring to face Shawn Spears, who has The Chairman and Perfection as his nicknames. Pick one! Cutler looks great doing a variety of high kicks and an over the top legdrop. Spears tosses him into the barricades hard. Running DVD ends it, but Janela makes a save to stop a DVD on the chair.

A neat Omega-Moxley hype video has Kenny mock Moxley saying this wasn't going to be a chain wrestling match anyway. Justin Roberts is in a very shiny silver suit. Page and Omega are out against Sammy and Jericho. Portrait mode vlogging -now that's a heel. Jericho being announced at 225 pounds remains hilarious. Jericho being his manager when he's done or part-time in ring would be tremendous.

Sammy works hard against both Omega and Page. Page lands an awesome delayed pumphandle sack of shit slam. Jericho is as old now as Hogan was in his Hulkamania STILL Rules run in 2002 - and unlike just about every legend, Jericho's doing a completely different act that doesn't play on nostalgia. Jericho and Page got at it with Jericho eating a corner lariat. Omega chops the God out of the Spanish God mid-ring in Charlotte! Omega goes for a Terminator dive, but Hager slugs him from behind for an ad break .Pac ballshots Page and Jericho hits the Judas Effect to end it. Cody runs wild and uppercuts Sammy. MJF chairshots Hager in the back, Jericho in the gut and sends him in for Cross Rhodes!

Moxley comes down with a barbwire bat and then Omega uses a barbwire broom while the Inner Circle brawls and stirs more shit up. Bucks make a save with a superkick party! Omega saves Nick from a powerbomb off the stage again and then Mox and Omega brawl more. Nick does a RAW sign flip dive off the heel tunnel that knocks everyone over including a camera man. This is just a great shit-kicking brawl and a hell of a way to close a go-home show. Goddamn is JR adding a ton to this. Not the best show on Earth bell to bell, but damned effective.
