Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Dynamite and LIVE AEW Rampage from Toronto, Canada:

Dynamite:
Mercedes Mone comes out first. She introduces herself to fans with a video package of her past, not including WWE. Julia Hart & Skye Blue come out at the end and try to ambush Mone but it backfires. When they get chairs, Willow Nightingale & Kris Statlander rush out to make the save, but at the end Nightingale teases hitting Mone with a chair.

Match 1: AEW Continental Champion Eddie Kingston vs. Kazuchika Okada for the title (but not the Continental Crown. Interesting)
Result: Kazuchika Okada beat AEW Continental Champion Eddie Kingston to become THE NEW AEW CONTINENTAL CHAMPION! So apparently the Triple Crown is no longer as Kingston is still the ROH World Champion and NJPW STRONG Openweight Champion, with an ROH Title defense coming at the Supercard Of Honor PPV in April. After the match, Pac came out and stared down Okada.

Swerve Strickland interviewed backstage.

Kris Statlander & Willow Nightingale interviewed backstage before Mone interrupts.

Match 2: Hook vs. Chris Jericho
Result: Hook beat Chris Jericho

Adam Cole promo.

Jericho will have a proposition for Hook next week.

Will Ospreay interviewed in the ring. He talks Bryan Danielson & Katsuyori Shibata and this leads to a match against Shibata next week.

Match 3: Mariah May & Toni Storm vs. Deonna Purrazzo & Thunder Rosa
Result: Deonna Purrazzo & Thunder Rosa beat Mariah May & Toni Storm. Rosa pinned Storm.

Match 4; Swerve Strickland vs. TBA, which is revealed to be The Butcher
Result: Swerve Strickland beat The Butcher by submission. Afterwards Strickland calls out Samoa Joe and the champ comes out. They tease going at it but get interrupted by Don Callis, which leads to Strickland vs. Konosuke Takeshita next week.

Main Event: AEW TNT Champion Christian Cage vs. Adam Copeland in an I Quit match for the title. The only way to win is make your opponent say I Quit
Result: Adam Copeland beat AEW TNT Champion Christian Cage to become THE NEW AEW TNT CHAMPION!

I cared less than not at all about the main event and it was little more than hardcore garbage. Outside of that, it was a fine Dynamite, not awesome but definitely above average and I enjoyed the first 90 minutes.

Rampage:
Dynamite main event continues/concludes after what would have been the usual overrun cutoff. No Rampage opening due to Dynamite overrun.

Bullet Club promo.

The Acclaimed comes out to respond to Bullet Club. No Billy Gunn. They run down Bullet Club.

Match 1: AEW Tag Team Championship Tournament: Orange Cassidy & Trent Beretta vs. Kyle Fletcher & Powerhouse Hobbs
Result: Orange Cassidy & Trent Beretta beat Kyle Fletcher & Powerhouse Hobbs. Cassidy pinned Fletcher after Orange Punch.

Match 2; Katsuyori Shibata vs. TBA, which is Kevin Matthews
Result: Katsuyori Shibata beat Kevin Matthews. Squash.

Match 3: Konosuke Takeshita vs. Rocky Romero
Result: Konosuke Takeshita beat Rocky Romero

Main Event: Willow Nightingale & Kris Statlander vs. Julia Hart & Skye Blue in a street fight
Result: Julia Hart & Skye Blue beat Willow Nightingale & Kris Statlander. Hart beat Statlander with Heartless.

Despite getting the Dynamite overrun at the end, Rampage was way too rushed and was a victim of bad time management by AEW, weighing the show down and making it look and feel much worse than it actually was.

No Collision this week due to NCAA Basketball.
