Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Dynamite in Washington, DC:
AEW World Champion MJF vs. Adam Cole in a NON-TITLE match (aka Eliminator) went to a 30 minute time limit draw. Cole would’ve gotten a rematch for the title had he won. Perfect heel wrestling by MJF. Must-see.
Sammy Guevara interviewed. He announces when he & Tay Melo have their first baby later this year or early next year it will be a girl. Then he shifts to other priorities, which leads to Darby Allin & Chris Jericho getting involved. This all leads to potentially Guevara & Jericho vs. Allin & Sting next week.
IWGP World Heavyweight Champion SANADA (New Japan) appears in a pre-taped promo in Japanese. Open Challenge for the title at Forbidden Door.
Gunn Club interviewed. They want The Hardys next week.
AEW TNT Champion Wardlow beat Jake Hager to retain the title. Christian Cage & Luchasaurus seen backstage afterwards with a bloody & beaten Arn Anderson. Wardlow-Luchasaurus for the title will happen at Collision Saturday.
Hiroshi Tanahashi (New Japan) pre-taped promo in Japanese. Challenge issued to MJF for Forbidden Door.
AEW Women’s Champion Toni Storm beat Skye Blue by submission to retain the title. Ruby Soho seconded Storm. No Saraya. Likely just heel acting by Saraya.
Jungle Boy accepts SANADA’s open challenge.
The Elite (The Young Bucks & Adam Page) beat Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta). Page pinned Yuta after Buckshot Lariat. After the match things got crazy including the return of Eddie Kingston, Konosuke Takeshita getting involved then, Kenny Omega laying out Takeshita and finally Will Ospreay appearing and laying out Omega with Stormbreaker, then adding Hidden Blade as Dynamite went off the air.
Another very good show with excellent Forbidden Door build throughout. MJF-Cole was an A+ match and a definite must-see just for the Masters’ Class on champion heel wrestling by MJF.
Friday on Rampage, presumably at regular time: Will Ospreay vs. TBA. Nothing else announced on TV, perhaps due to time constraints. If there were announcements I missed them.
Added to the Collision premiere Saturday: AEW TNT Champion Wardlow vs. Luchasaurus for the title, Willow Nightingale & Skye Blue vs. Toni Storm & Ruby Soho, Buddy Matthews vs. Andrade El Idolo, Miro vs. TBA.
Confirmed for Forbidden Door: AEW World Champion MJF vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi for the title, and IWGP World Heavyweight Champion SANADA vs. Jungle Boy for the title, joining the already-announced Bryan Danielson vs. Kazuchika Okada and IWGP US Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay for the title.
