AEW Dynamite 11-11-20 - THE LANDSCAPE CHANGES


 The show starts off with a simple, classy Veterans Day graphic before a new full-on intro airs. Team Taz is out for Cage vs. Sydal before Taz knocks Darby and Cody and he puts over Cage as a man who's gonna take out a guy who's respected all over the world and who has wins over stars like Chris Jericho. Ex talks about Darby being in the stands with tacks on him so he doesn't get jumped. 


Cage goes for a press, but Sydal enzuiguris him into the corner before landing a sliding dropkick in the corner. Cage lands a full bodylock overhead belly to belly! Taz says he's tired of Cody being so full of himself. Corner lariat, elbow, and gamenguri by Cage! Cage goes for a flying rana and eats a powerbomb that Cage gets up from before bumping again. METEORA ON THE RAMP! Quad kicks lead to a question mark kick and the sliding Angle slam for 2. Cage avoids another and drills him with a lariat. Drillclaw countered into a rana by Sydal for 2! Jumping knee hits and Sydal dives into a suplex and drillclaw. "VICTORRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" - Taz is so fun.



Starks gets on the mic and says it's now about the TNT Title and the card is recapped and we'll get Kingston on commentary for the Fenix-Penta main event. Cody comes out and congratulates Darby before saying he doesn't want a rematch now - but may want one now. Jade Cargill comes in and says she's the total package and Cody said he was a giant killer - but there's nothing giant about him. This gets THE BEST reaction from a fan and then she tells him to knock his giant killer shit off. The giant is Shaq and Brandi says that she's a bitch and now she's her problem. She tells her to leave her stage and not return unless she calls for her, HEFFER! 



Cage comes in and powerbombs Cody before Starks attacks and Darby comes in! THUMBTACK JACKET COFFIN DROP TO STARKS! TACK BODYBLOCK TO CAGE! Hobbs comes out to even the odds. Bunkhouse match is next! Page vs. Omega is hyped up and recapped. Marvez chats with Mox in an echo chamber. Mox says the belt represents everyone who's disenfranchised - and that's why he couldn't quit on Saturday. Mox says he beat Kenny once, but it takes someone special to beat him twice - and he is. He is the greatest wrestler in the world. MOX VS. OMEGA IS SET FOR DECEMBER 2 ON DYNAMITE! 







WE GET DUSTIN IN STREET CLOTHES IN A BUNKHOUSE MATCH. All seems right with the world right now. Ex calls Butcher Bunkhouse Butch and Ross says Bunkhouse Butcher is a great name and Ex says you should make him in the AEW game. GUITAR SHOT TO QT! QT is sliced open AND IN A WHITE SHIRT TO BOOT. Allie struggles to handcuff Dustin. DUSTIN RUNS WILD after Bunny mocks QT.

Okay, this whole bunkhouse set reminds me of Spring Stampede. AEW needs something legally different, but close to it. Blade and QT go at it! QT Marshall hits a lariat! BULLDOG OFF THE STAGE! ELBOW OFF THE TOP OF A LADDER FROM QT TO BLADE FOR 2.9! Chain-whip cutter by QT! Blade gets bopped into Bunny, who falls through a table and Blade eats a chain shot and cutter to end it. THIS RULED! Butcher and Blade need to be like the Brass Knux tag champs are something - they are THE BEST at this tyle.





Matt says that Sammy has his respect now and his confidence took a shot at All Out, but he had to do what he had to in order to survive. HE IS ICONIC and don't squander what he gave you. Pseudo-heel Matt Hardy is great stuff. We get a goofy rock video for MJF joining the Inner Circle and Jericho's theme is sung with Peter Avalon being all goofy in the crowd. He calls out the OGs and Sammy isn't there. MJF says that he's been in the industry FIVE YEARS and his father gave him a small loan of a million dollars.

"I got a small loan from my father for one million dollars..."
"I wrote a poem and I think my...homies...in Proud and Powerful will Dig. It." He gets called out for ripping off Drake and he throws a surprise party for Jericho. MJF says NEXT WEEK, WE'RE GOING TO VEGAS! 



We get a Bucks-FTR hype video and Matt says that he saw a video from Top Flight and says that this team of brothers will face them NEXT WEEK. Shawn Spears is out to face Scorpio Sky with JR giving us a weather report from Jacksonville. Cody and Darby face Team Taz next week. Good back and forth before Sky jumps up and Spears run-up suplexes him. They run up the steps on the floor and Sky hits a superman punch, but eats a superkick. Sky goes for a TKO and it gets countered into a sunset flip before Sky gets a sharpshooter. Spears loads up the glove and THE GOOD HAND ends it!
Sky gets the glove off him and IT'S EMPTY. 


Dasha chats with Kenny, but he runs off before they could get him on-camera. Kenny chats with Marvez, who gets to him before he can leave. Kenny says the reality of things is he has to no longer be an afterthought and he needs to be ready to once again be in the top spot in pro wrestling. He says it's time for deja vu and hey, they've never had a regular match - so they're zero-zero IN A REAL WRESTLING MATCH, which makes sense since that match was unsanctioned! 


Tay Conti vs. Red Velvet with Tay landing a few judo throws. 619 shotgun knees by Red and a stunner gets 2. Stereo Cro Cop kicks! Anna gives Tay a chair and she kicks it out. Spotlight kick...misses? Maybe and Tay gets a BTE-trigger pump kick Gory special knee ends it for Tay. Good-ish little match there. Jericho buries Marvez for only going to OLD VEGAS with Bill Apter. Sammy shows up and says he got an e-mail to go to the beach and MJF says it was to be here. MJF says he's got his ticket - and hey, it's on me! Tremendous stuff here. 


Eddie is out and gets  a giant "EDDIE" chant before he says he knows his name. He says that Mox made him say he quit and he has to live with that - BUT HE'LL NEVER STOP AND HE WILL BE WORLD'S CHAMPION! KICKSAPLENTY to start off Fenix-Penta! Standing tombstone lock by Penta! Penta rips at his OWN BROTHER'S MASK! Ex brings up that Eddie has brought out something he never thought possible out of them.

Run-up sole butt by Fenix! Penta tosses him to the floor but eats a gamenguri. DOUBLE JUMP RANA BY FENIX! Ex hypes up DVD RELEASES of their PPVs in 2020. FENIX RIPS UP ON PENTA'S MASK and now Eddie shows that he prefers Penta because he wants Fenix DQed for that but was okay with Penta doing it. TORNILLO TO THE FLOOR BY FENIX! DOUBLE JUMP SWANTON FOR 2 BY FENIX! Eddie talks about Tracy Smothers telling him to always hook the leg. PACKAGE PILEDRIVER ON THE APRON BY PENTA! ANOTHER ONE MID-RING ENDS IT. This was even better than the first match. 




Eddie mocks the mark chants and says they just saw two of the best FIGHTING for competition. MY BEST FRIEND YOU DID IT YOU ARE THE BEST! He kicks Fenix to the floor. Wow. PAC IS BACK! PAC VS. KINGSTON ON THE MIC! I love that each guy is a character babyface in some way and going back, you've got PAC as the original ally of Penta and now he's got to go through the Fam in facing the Blade. What a show this was. Damn!
