Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Dynamite in New Orleans, LA:
Match 1: Jon Moxley vs. Jeff Hardy
Result: Jon Moxley beat Jeff Hardy by ref stoppage (technical submission). 3-4 wrestlers from Mexico’s CMLL promotion are ringside in the crowd and post-match, Moxley taunted them (he also did so during the match) and they hit the ring for a beatdown until Matt Menard, Christopher Daniels and others made the save.
Match 2: Adam Page (with MUSTACHE!) vs. Toa Liona
Result: Adam Page beat Toa Liona
Match 3: Wardlow vs. Komander (last-second add to show during opening match)
Result: Wardlow beat Komander
Ricky Starks/Big Bill & Sting/Darby Allin sitdown interview.
Match 4: Chris Jericho vs. Kyle Fletcher
Result: Chris Jericho beat Kyle Fletcher
Match 5; Deonna Purrazzo vs. Taya Valkyrie. Toni Storm on commentary
Result: Deonna Purrazzo beat Taya Valkyrie by submission
Darby Allin interviewed backstage, interrupted immediately by The Young Bucks.
Main Event: Swerve Strickland vs. Adam Page’s choice, which as expected from his promos last week is Rob Van Dam. Page appeared on video before the bell to tell Strickland it’s a hardcore match. Samoa Joe on commentary
Result: Swerve Strickland beat Rob Van Dam. Afterwards, Tony Khan made Strickland-Adam Page 3 for next week and the winner faces Samoa Joe for the AEW World Championship at Revolution.
It was another Dynamite that happened. Nothing terrible but nothing I cared for. Straight-down-the-middle average. I did miss Jericho-Fletcher due to a personal issue that I had to tend to.
Next week: The return of the TONY KHAN HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT! Cue some potential Kazuchika Okada speculation.
UPDATE: The Rankings were announced after the show ended on the socials. Check them out below:
