It's been a trying week. Enjoyed last week's Dynamite a ton, but post-Rampage, Kadie broke off all contact with me and that has put me in a massive funk since then. Fortunately, I was able to say my peace after the fact and get a bit of closure if that is the case - and I hope that things unthaw with time. Tonight's show is pretty loaded with Mortos, Ospreay vs. Darby and while it would have been fun live, travel plans fell through - so that will have to wait until the next Dynamite in DC or Fairfax. Trios match main events and Jay says that their focus is on the AEW World title and tonight, he'll gain momentum. Hangman says he's getting Mox TONIGHT! All right that ruled!
OSPREAY VS. DARBY OPENS THE SHOW! Or not - good back and forth promo tho. Mercedes vs. Anna Jay is the opener - and that's a good choice for a crowd starved for action. Mone vs. Hazuki is shown in highlight form and I need to watch that one. THREE AMIGOS BY MONE! Anna got 2 off a flipping neckbreaker. TORNADO BACKSTABBER BY MONE! Draping neckbreaker INTO THE QUEENSLAYER! BUT SHE BIT THE ARM TO BREAK IT! Statement Maker/crossface is on for Mone, but it's turned into a cradle for 2! Mone Maker turned into a double buckle smash for 2 off a backslide! SUNSET BOMB AND METEORA HIT! MONE MAKER ENDS IT! This ruled! Ospreay and Darby are going to have work hard to follow that.
FTR promo from Asheville and they say they're blocked from wrestling medically until January 1 and they'll face the Death Riders and THEY AREN'T COMING ALONE! MJF buries the Wizards and some boo and some agree before he buries Santa and gets a SANTA chant for it. He does Photoshop comedy with Cole and he jumps MJF, who avoids the sunrise.
OMEGA HYPE VIDEO for Wrestle Dynasty! Hook and Shibata vs. Cage and Wayne is up and WE GET AN AMAZING LOCKUP FROM SHIBATA AND CHRISTIAN before Cage does wacky heel shit to Hook. SHIBATA CORNER CHOPS AND FOREARMS UNTIL THE DELAYED DROPKICK GETS 2! STOS BACK AND FORTH FOR CAGE AND NICK WAYNE! Kip gets rocked on the floor and Cage eats an exploder! WAYNE'S WORLD IS MET WITH AN RNC! Cage hits a Killswitch and Nick wins it - this ruled!
CHRIS JERICHO IS THE KING OF NEW YORK - this is such a great gimmick. Bandido hype video - now with match clips! That'll be great stuff. HARLEY CAMERON SINGING SHOPAEW VIDEO! Mariah May promo about hating heroes and saying that she isn't one - she looks out for her and it's worked out well. She buries Rosa and says she's made the division better just by being in it. Tony brings out Ricochet to talk about this Saturday's Ospreay match at Hammerstein. The Hurt Syndicate is out and Ricochet asks if they saw him beat Brody and Komander and he talks a bit of shit to Shelton about facing him later. MVP grabs the card and tears it up for him being a kiss-ass.
Shelton vs. Mortos is up with Shelton already mid-ring. MASSIVE run-up armdrag is countered by Shelton into a run-up knee on the ropes! DAMN! MASSIVE CORKSCREW SWANTON BY MORTOS GOT 2.9! Killer near-fall! Running powerslam by Shelton hits! DEADMAN SITUP! CLONKING HEADBUTT, DISCUS ELBOW BUT A SUPERKICK BY SHELTON! GERMAN TRIFECTA! CORNER RUN-UP KNEE BY SHELTY! AND A SECOND ONE! Exploder powerslam ends it and it's now the Hurt Fall - FINALLY HAS A NAME! Lashley attacks Mortos afterwards and I NEED THAT MATCH! DG and Mark Briscoe run out and get beat up and Shelton vs. DG is set up with MVP putting the TNT Title on him.
Ospreay vs. DARBY IS UP NEXT! But first, Swerve and Ricochet is hyped up and TONI STORM IS HYPED UP! PORTRAIT OF A ROCKSTAR TIME with Toni Storm. She's excited to be in AEW and calls Saraya a legend, Mercedes an icon and Mariah is the best in the business. She's hyped about TONI TIME!
Will chops him to start after being a cocky shit to play heel here. Fast action to start with a springboard blind crossbody getting 1 for Darby. CHOP BATTLE and an Alabama slam is countered by a backflip INTO A HIDDEN BLADE BUT THE STORMBREAKER IS TURNED INTO A CODE RED FOR 2.9! CHOPS! FOREARMS! Ospreay holds onto a series of chops! Oklahoma roll gets 2.999999 for DARBY AND A COFFIN DROP GETS 2.9! STYLES CLASH OFF THE APRON TO THE FLOOR!
"YOU KILLED DARBY" chant! AND HE'S IN AT 9.9! OSCUTTER HITS FOR 2.9! Stormbreaker turned into the death drop!COFFIN DROP TO THE BACK! COFFIN DROP ENDS IT! DARBY WINS IT! This was a damn near classic! Unreal how good that was to see on TV! Darby vs. Claudio is up for Collision BUT IT'S TIME FOR THE DEATH RIDERS TO FUCK ABOUT!
Beach Break to Mox! SNAP GERMAN BY PAC TO JAY! CUTTHROAT SUPLEX TO YUTA! OC and his partners argue and OC gets cradled and pinned. This was...all right but this team in matches isn't clicking for me.
