Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Dynamite in Portland, OR:

MJF interviewed backstage before the opening. Adam Cole calls MJF then Daniel Garcia stares down MJF before heading to the ring, then Roderick Strong & The Kingdom interrupt.

Match 1: AEW World Champion MJF vs. Daniel Garcia for the title
Result: AEW World Champion MJF beat Daniel Garcia by submission to retain the title.

Match 2: Darby Allin & Sting vs. The Outrunners
Result: Darby Allin & Sting beat The Outrunners. Squash.

Toni Storm & Hikaru Shida interview with Tony Schiavone. Pre-recorded and in black & white per Strom’s demand. Contract signed for Full Gear.

Match 3: Swerve Strickland vs. Penta El Zero M. During entrances commentary announced Adam Page is banned from ringside
Result: Swerve Strickland beat Penta El Zero M. Afterwards, Adam Page came out and attacked Strickland with a chair, also using it on security as they intervened before sending Strickland off the stage and through a table with Deadeye.

Don Callis-Kenny Omega promo. They incorporated footage from the video game “Yakuza: Like A Dragon”, which elevated the typically high promo video quality even further.

Renee Paquette interviews Chris Jericho & Kenny Omega but The Young Bucks interrupt quickly. They eventually talk into a tag match at Full Gear-if Jericho & Omega win, The Bucks lose their guaranteed future AEW Tag Team Championship opportunity. If The Bucks win, Jericho & Omega must split up. Renee REALLY enjoyed this.

Match 4: ROH TV Champion Samoa Joe vs. Keith Lee for the title
Result: ROH TV Champion Samoa Joe beat Keith Lee by ref stoppage (technical submission) to retain the title. Afterwards, Joe announced the ROH TV Championship is now VACANT. He’s giving it up to go after the AEW World Championship.

Orange Cassidy promo.

Match 5: Gunn Club vs. Bollywood Boyz
Result: Gunn Club beat Bollyeood Boyz. Squash. Lasted just a few seconds.

Jon Moxley promo.

Match 6: Julia Hart vs. Red Velvet
Result: Julia Hart beat Red Velvet

Mariah May is introduced backstage. She signed with AEW after recently leaving Stardom (Japan). She says she’s here because of Toni Storm so RJ City says he’ll introduce May to Storm next week.

Main Event: Jay White vs. Mark Briscoe for White’s AEW World Championship shot at Full Gear
Result: Jay White beat Mark Briscoe to keep his title shot. MJF cleaned house afterwards until White bailed. After this, masked assailants attacked The Acclaimed & Billy Gunn backstage as “The Devil” appeared again to close this clip. MJF ran to the back and found The Acclaimed & Gunn laid out (Anthony Bowens got thrown through a window here) as Samoa Joe walked in on cue, smirked and walked off to end the show.

Next week: Jon Moley & Wheeler Yuta vs. Orange Cassidy & Hook.

Friday on a LIVE Rampage from Oakland, CA: FTR vs. El Hijo Del Vikingo & Komander. Saturday’s Collision will be TAPED after the show. Spoilers to follow Saturday morning.

As the show wound down, Mariah May got the #AllElite graphic on social media. Those who don’t follow Stardom or the international scene closely probably haven’t heard of her. Understandable.

A better show than last week, everything was consistently at or above average with nothing bad or that you need to skip. Strickland-Penta and Joe-Lee were really good matches. Right between C+ & B- but no real complaints.

Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Dynamite in Louisville, KY:

Match 1: AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy vs. Claudio Castagnoli for the title
Result: AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy beat Claudio Castagnoli to retain the title.

Jon Moxley promo. He wants Cassidy at Full Gear for the title.

Match 2: ROH 6-Man Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks & Adam Page vs. Gates Of Agony & Brian Cage for the titles
Result: Gates Of Agony & Brian Cage beat ROH 6-Man Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks & Adam Page to become THE NEW ROH 6-MAN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Kaun pinned Matt Jackson. Late in the match, Swerve Strickland came out and taunted Page, luring him away from the match and into a backstage pull-apart brawl. Matt Jackson threw a major temper tantrum afterwards, taking a chair to the ring posts and more.

Adam Copeland interviewed. Christian Cage interrupts. A beatdown and save by Sting & Darby Allin lead to Copeland accepting the offer to team with Allin & Sting at Full Gear against Christian, Luchasaurus & Nick Wayne.

Tony Khan’s Important Announcement is made. All In London 2024 tickets go on sale December 1 but fans can sign up for a presale that will begin on November 27. Unless you’re in Europe it’s not that important.

Match 3: Angelo Parker & Matt Menard vs. Chris Jericho & Kenny Omega
Result: Chris Jericho & Kenny Omega beat Angelo Parker & Matt Menard. Jericho pinned Parker after Judas Effect. Afterwards, Callis challenged Jericho & Omega to a street fight in 2 weeks. Omega accepted with Kota Ibushi being brought in to team with them, and Jericho brought out The Big Show (Paul Wight) as their other partner.

The Young Bucks are starting to turn heel on Omega.

Match 4: AEW Women’s Champion HIkaru Shida vs. Willow Nightingale for the title
Result: AEW Women’s Champion Hikaru Shida beat Willow Nightingale to retain the title. Toni Storm came out afterwards but got run off by Shida. Julia Hart then appeared in the ring and stared down Nightingale until Skye Blue interjected herself in the middle and misted Hart.

MJF still needs partners. Jeff Jarrett & Crew?

Main event is next.

Main Event: Jay White, Juice Robinson & Gunn Club vs. MJF & the 3 TBAs…The Acclaimed & Billy Gunn
Result: Jay White, Juice Robinson & Gunn Club beat MJF, The Acclaimed & Billy Gunn. White pinned MJF after Bladerunner. Garbage comedy match.

Just not a good show all around. The Tony Khan major announcement will of course spur more mockery and bad (good) jokes when the next one comes around. He won’t admit it but based on live crowd attendance, from what I see online, AEW is in a bad place right now as crowds are way down from a year or so ago.

Friday on Rampage: Christopher Daniels & Matt Sydal vs. Gunn Club, Skye Blue vs. Marina Shafir, Trent Beretta vs. Daniel Garcia and El Hijo Del Vikingo vs. Penta El Zero M & Komander in a 3-way..

Saturday on Collision: The Acclaimed 69-Day Championship Celebration. Also Darby Allin vs. Lance Archer and AR Fox vs. Swerve Strickland.

Announced for Full Gear: Adam Page vs. Swerve Strickland, Christian Cage, Luchasaurus & Nick Wayne vs. Darby Allin, Sting & Adam Copeland and AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy vs. Jon Moxley for the title.

UPDATE: AEW has signed Dralistico. This comes from the socials of Dralistico.

Here are the quick results from tonight’s AEW Dynamite in Philadelphia. PA (Temple University):

Updates will begin at 5 PM PT/8 PM ET.

MJF interviewed by Renee Paquette to open the show. Roderick Strong interrupts briefly. The Devil briefly appears at the end.

No opening video, right to pyro and commentary opening.

Match 1: MJF vs. Juice Robinson for the Dynamite Diamond Ring
Result: MJF beat Juice Robinson to retain the Dynamite Diamond Ring for the next year. Afterwards, Gunn Club beatdown led to The Kingdom & The Acclaimed getting involved, MJF giving Gunn Club an ROH World Tag Team Championship match at Full Gear, accepting Jay White’s challenge for an 8-man tag match next week and MJF vs. Kenny Omega for the AEW World Championship Saturday at Collision.

Wardlow promo.

Match 2: Hook & Rob Van Dam vs. John Silver & Alex Reynolds
Result: Hook & Rob Van Dam beat John Silver & Alex Reynolds. Hook beat Silver with Redrum.

Toni Storm’s newest “film” plays during split-screen commercial, but it sounds like she has a title shot coming up at Full Gear on 11/18. What we don’t yet know is which title. And…is that…Luther as a butler? Haven’t seen him since the days of Streamerpentico before we knew for sure he was actually Jon Cruz the whole time!

Schiavone has his Stingasm and brings out Sting. Darby Allin is with him, right arm in a sling. Tony Khan’s gift to Sting is revealed and it’s…RIC FLAIR! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! But Christian Cage interrupts and makes a challenge to Sting & Allin for a 6-man tag at Full Gear, their choice of partner. Accepted.

Renee interview with Chris Jericho from earlier today.

Match 3: ROH 6-Man Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks & Adam Page vs. The Hardys & Brother Zay for the titles
Result: ROH 6-Man Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks & Adam Page beat The Hardys & Brother Zay to retain the titles. Matt Jackson pinned Zay after BTE Trigger. Immediately afterwards, a video played of Swerve Strickland & Prince Nana inside Page’s house as Page ran to the back. It ended with Strickland leaving a Mogul Embassy shirt in his baby son’s crib.

Adam Copeleand interviewed. Allin & Sting try to recruit him as their partner because he has lost his Edge.

Match 4: AEW Women’s Champion Hikaru Shida vs. Ruby Soho for the title
Result: AEW Women’s Champion Hikaru Shida beat Ruby Soho to retain the title. Toni Storm came out post-match. She gets ANOTHER AEW Women’s Championship shot at Full Gear, and it could very well come against Shida.

MJF interviewed backstage. Samoa Joe interrupts to offer to be MJF’s bodyguard Saturday, which MJF accepts. Then the catch: Joe wants a rematch for the AEW World Championship.

Main Event: Orange Cassidy & Kazuchika Okada (New Japan) vs. Bryan Danielson & Claudio Castagnoli
Result: Bryan Danielson & Claudio Castagnoli beat Orange Cassidy & Kazuchika Okada. Castagnoli pinned Cassidy after a European Uppercut.

During the main event another new PPV, Worlds’ End, is announced for 12/30 in the New York City/Long Island, NY area (Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum).

Friday on Rampage: Santana vs. Ortiz, Skye Blue vs. Willow Nightingale, Anna Jay & Abadon in a 4-way and MJF & Kenny Omega speak.

Saturday on Collision: AEW Women’s Champion Hikaru Shida vs. Friday’s 4-way winner for the title and AEW World Champion MJF vs. Kenny Omega for the title.

Next week: Cassidy-Castagnoli for the AEW International Championship.

This was a solid show that greatly overachieved, but Danielson was possibly injured in the main event and it looked like arm/wrist again and it completely ruined everything. It sucked the life out of the arena and commentary as Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, Rocky Romero & Hook all came out but despite the tensions cooler heads prevailed as we cut away. But there are understandably a lot of concerns about Danielson, and if Okada injured again, and sadly it made all the good stuff tonight not matter at all because this is what will be most remembered and talked about. I’m still trying to process everything myself. We’ll have to wait for updates and hope for the best for Danielson.

End Show.

UPDATE: After the show ended, Tony Khan posted on Twitter that Danielson left the ring and walked off under his own power without further specifics, but that is hopefully a good sign.

Also added to Rampage post-show is Kyle Fletcher vs. Konosuke Takeshita.
