AEW Dynamite 10-6-21 - Dynamite Two Year Anniversary Show



It's hard to believe it's been two years since the start of Dynamite. Tonight's show has a casino ladder match with a joker in it. The 8-man tag opens with Cole, the Bucks, and Omega against the Jurassic Express, Danielson, and Christian. Rope-rebound armdrag and a dropkick from Jack to Nick. Cole runs wild on Jack before Cage tags in and chops away before Jack tags in quickly and brings Cage back in. Kenny No Balls tags in and gets chanted at before tagging out to Nick. Jack gets a run-up armdrag after crotching Nick and armdragging Matt! Indytaker to Cage after COLDSPRAY TO THE EYES! 

Tony teases that Cage being taken out due to injury here - which is a smart thing just to get in play. Jack avoids a snapdragon and gets a rebound lariat. Jack turns a double suplex into a stereo DDT. Danielson and Omega square off and Danielson gets a tiger suplex for 2. Cattle mutilation incoming, but Nick swantons him! Luchasaurus runs wild with the tail whip, roundhouse and moonsault! Tope suicida from Danielson!



Roundhouses aplenty to Kenny, but Bryan eats THREE SUPERKICKS and a 4-way BTE Trigger ends it! This was outstanding. Mox says AEW is his company and he's coming for his belt again in the ladder match. Punk's out and stavedives before slapping hands with an OC cosplayer. Punk talks about loving Philly and feeling alive again and having what he has thanks to the Philly scene letting him get both an iPod AND a laptop. Punk messes up and says he can't buy them cheese cake, so he'll either buy them cheese steaks or wrestle. He'll let them buy cheesesteaks - he's wrestling Danny Garcia on Rampage! Punk gives the OC kid HIS JORDANS. Wow. What a moment!


We get a cool Arn promo in front of his house burning a bonfire on his own lawn. He wants Cody's tie and slaps him when he declines. Bobby Fish hype video leads to him coming out to his ROH theme. Ex hypes up Fish's international game before Sammy springs in and Fish kicks the calf out of him. Sweeping kick on Sammy on the apron and then a senton atomico meets a knee. Avalanche falcon arrow by Fish! Corner exploder to Sammy! GTH outta nowhere ends it! 


PVZ is out as the '80s and we get the Inner Circle saving Sammy from an ATT beatdown! Dan calls Philly a shitstain town and he wants Miami to play host to a 6-man tag with the INNER CITY JERKOFFS against the Men of the Year and JDS! Jorge will be out for Dan as backup! Acclaimed faces the Lucha Bros on Rampage. TK's big announcement or Nick vs. Darby is next.



Tony is mid-ring for the TK announcement and he hypes up the TBS move in January alongside the new title - the TBS Title, which is the TNT Title with blue paint and the TBS logo on it. Good stuff - it looks better than the mainline title. Ross talks to Darby about why he paints his face and he talks about his uncle's death. He faced death that day - but he's still here and Max can say what he wants, but mentally, he's not going to win this.

Darby standing swantons the Factory on the floor and posts him! PIP win for Darby with the coffin drop before QT diamond cuts Sting! Ball shot from Sting and he dreathdrops him! Evil Uno chats with the Dark Order about who wants to vote and they'll vote and Anna demands they stop bitching. Tony interviews Dante Martin and he wants ANYONE. MALAKAI IS HERE! BLACK MIST AND THE KICK! It's on! 




Ricky Starks is mid-ring with the FTW Title - BUILT IN PHILLY! He talks shit about Cage, who runs out and somehow doesn't tear anything. Rosa, Skye Blue, Ruby, and JADE are in the mix for the TBS Title. It's going to be That Bitch Show. Shida vs. Deeb is up for the 50 match win record. They already have the award made which they handwave as having confidence in her. Serena avoids a chair dive and tosses it under the ring before an awkward PIP shift. Knee shot hits Deeb and a crossbody to the floor by Shida. Chopblock by Deeb and a rope dragon screw. Knee clip is avoided and a seated dominator gets 2 for Shida! Falcon arrow gets 2.9! Eye rake and the detox hits for 2.999! SERENITY LOCK ENDS IT! What a great swerve! She destroys the trophy on her! Tony credits the TBS Title for this - good stuff.




Darby accepts MJF's challenge for Dynamite next week. Some goons jump Darby outside of a limo. F10 ON THE STOP SIGN AND GUARDRAILS! Starks vs. Cage in a street fight is made for Rampage. Lio hypes up Dante Martin. After an internet outage, it's time for OC and Pac in the ladder match. Andrade is out and we get a few spots until Mox is out and dropkicks Archer. HANGMAN RETURNS AS THE JOKER! According to the graphic, he has FINALLY SHOWED UP TO WORK!


But they didn't note "sober".Mox and Page go at it! Fallaway to OC and a ladder slingshot lariat to Andrade! Pac and Andrade fight up top and Andrade eats a headbutt and goes to a ladder on the floor! Mox and Page fight up top and PAGE WINS IT! A gorgeous shot closes out the night.
