AEW Dynamite 6-26-24

It's the first Dynamite after the epic Jeff Jarrett promo and my goodness it was incredible. I loved seeing him live in Fairfax with Lethal against The Outrunners and they're incredible together. It was a perfect Memphis-style tag and it's something I hope sees the light of day. MJF is out and Tony's voice sounds shot before Daniel Garcia comes out in Buffalo and thanks MJF for chatting with him nine months ago and that he saw him as a pillar of AEW. He thanks him - but if he talks shit, he's gonna look two-faced tonight. They go back and forth and MJF pitches Garcia vs. MJF for ALL IN! Ospreay comes out and pisses MJF off by saying he's going to give Garcia a shot for both the International Title and the World Title - before Swerve says you're putting the cart before the horse backstage. 

BCC is out to face LIJ's Hiromu, Titan, and SHINGO! CLAUDIO IS INCREDIBLE WITH TITAN and catches him for a backbreaker and then a swing! Mox and Shingo stiff each other with elbows and lariats before Shingo gets a double DDT/Lariat combo. TIME BOMB to Yuta gets 2 before Mox eats a superkick. Mox chairshots Hiromu for a DQ!

Backstage, the BBG talks about proving if the HOB can hang with them. Lee vs. Dante is up and STP ruins that one. KOR vs. Anthony Henry is up and the suplex into the armbar ends it quickly. 

HOB vs. Bang Bang Gang is up and I've switched keyboard to have better results there, but with the mouse being a bit wonky. Juice pretends to dog piss on Malakai and Malakai just looks on gobsmacked.

This isn't the best-built show ever, but it's got Mone live and a killer Ospreay vs. Fenix match.

AEW Dynamite 6-5-24 - MJF Returns

MJF is out and hugely over with a giant MJF chant. He says he's in Colorado and high and shills his merch. He buries Okada's physique and Swerve's promos "The cockney cockhead!" Bleep guy die or something? A GRANNY IS ALL ELITE sign is on the front row and Rush comes out to chat with MJF. MJF tells him he gets none of that and he thinks no one could hear Rush. They brawl and CD and the goons break them up.

Strong grounds him but avoids a house call and the Kingdom catches Swerve leading to a Strong X PLEX ON THE APRON! Roddy codebreaker counter to the rolling flatliner! House call ends it!

AEW Dynamite 5-29-24 - Saraya vs. Mariah May

It was a tiring day at work still recovering from a cold, but rewarding as my controller arrived early and I've gotta say - going between the Razer Wolverine and Victrix BFG Pro, I'd put the Wolverine above it on comfort level and responsiveness too. I prefer the build quality of the Victrix, but it being so modular without replacement parts makes it tough to recommend over the Razer. The CEO is out for her celebration to start the show. She just shimmies and dances and is HER! She talks about celebrating 5 years of AEW and THE IN-RING RETURN OF THE GOAT - ME!

She wants Willow to kick the asses of Kris and Stoke when she returns BUT NOW BACK TO THE CELEBRATION! Skye Blue reveals that she's the one who took Mercedes out and she TKOs her! Ex talks about the TNT Title's fate being in the EVP's hands tonight before saying that Okada is international champion when he's Continental champ. MAYBE they have too many belts... Swerve vs. Killswitch is up and starts off with Swerve kicking his leg out a bit before gator rolling him to the apron and a twist and shout neckbreaker off the apron!

Swerve locks on a nice triangle that I've gotta give him in 2K - nice and tight elevated up too. A leg kick sets up the kneeling European uppercut for 2.

Swerve cuts some hair off the mask as a trophy just like he had done to him. BIG DWAYNE ENERGY AD!

HOOK BEATS UP GOONS before casual floral wear Joe chats with him! We get an odd quick video of Mox and then maybe a Stephanie Vaquer video? Yes?! Yes, she will be at Forbidden Door! Mox vs. Romero is up. Back and forth and Mox hits a big superplex. Rocky high kicks him before eating a forearm shiver. RKOOUTTANOWHERE by Mox! Mox avoids a cross armbar with an S grip.

Don Callis reminds everyone he has something important to say amidst all the boos. OC is out and Don attempts to do the thumbs up and Don puts him over huge before OC rips it up! Stoke is out as AEW'S NUMBER ONE HATER! Mone vs. Blue is up and Mone does a run-up tornado armdrag. Sunset flip into a meteora by Mone gets 2! Mone maker ends it. It's...a finish I guess. Vaquer stares her down afterwards. STOKE HYPES UP KRIS being tough enough to get back to back knee surgeries and THE NEW IMPROVED KRIS STATLANDER IS HERE! She cuts a killer promo about everyone using her as a protector - but now they need protection from her!

The Elite comes out and celebrates their win while Okada calls them all bitches. They got Okada a new Lambo! Matt gets a YOU DESERVE IT chant going for this and he goes THANK YOU I LOVE YOU GUYS! The NETWORK IS ON THEIR CASE and they need a new TNT Champion - AND IT'S JACK PERRY! Daniels returns and he is the NEW INTERIM EVP AND YOU WILL CALL HIM CHRISTOPHER AND WE DON'T GIVE BELTS AWAY and if you want to be a champion, you have to earn it! There will be a mini-tourney to determine a new TNT Champion in a ladder match at Forbidden Door! There will also be Friday Night Dynamite in LA with the tourney starting. The Acclaimed and Daddy Ass staredown the Elite. 

MJF hype video airs before Rush calls him out. GUNNS UP! Jay works Pac before Mistico is out! Ospreay works over Jay and then Pac. SHOTA UMINO ATTACKS OSPREAY! LIO RUSH DARTS AROUND WITH CLAUDIO! Claudio runs down Rush with a lariat and OC is out IN A BLACK SHIRT and busted up. OSPREAY AND OC GO AT IT with Will not hitting the Blade outta nowhere. Fastball knee strike to Orange, but the Orange punch hits! Sleeper suplex by Jay but THE HIDDEN BLADE HITS! OSCUTTER TO ORANGE AND OSPREAY GETS THE AEW WORLD TITLE SHOT AT FORBIDDEN DOOR! All right, so Ospreay loses there and then you want it that much more for ALL IN - good stuff. Weird show at times, but it felt more like vintage Dynamite than it has in months.
