AEW Dynamite Results
*Live from Greensboro, NC.
(1) Adam Cole defeats Orange Cassidy…the Young Bucks & Cutler out…Best Friends & Yuta neutralize them before they can even get to ringside…Cassidy kicks out of Panama Sunrise…Cole kicks out of Beach Break…Bobby Fish gets the ref’s attention, allowing Kyle O’Reilly to slide in & drop Cassidy with a series of strikes…Cole lands the Boom for the win (17:05)…AFTER…as the Undisputed boys stand together, the Young Bucks make their way back to the ring…uncomfortable looks are exchanged & Cole leaves with Fish & O’Reilly.
*Hangman Page to the ring for an interview with Schiavone…Page was never more disappointed than he was at the end of that draw…Bryan Danielson out, he won’t wrestle until their rematch on Jan 5th, because last time his leg was kinda injured…Danielson proposes they add judges to that rematch in case they go to the time limit again…Hangman is fine with the judges because they won’t need them.
*MJF & Pinnacle in their locker room…MJF says when Punk decided not to shake his hand he chose early retirement.
(2) Wardlow defeats “Captain” Shawn Dean…four Powerbombs for the win (01:12)…AFTER…Shawn Spears with the obligatory chairshots on Wardlow’s already motionless victim.
*Dan Lambert (& the Men of the Year)…quoting Shakespeare from the loge deck…says Tony Khan doesn’t book based on merit…takes shots at Cody Rhodes…his only concern is that one of the Men of the Year gets the next shot at the TNT Championship.
*Britt Baker’s Christmas Party…Tony asks about her upcoming match with Riho…Britt isn’t worried…she’s a pillar of the company…says that if all Riho want for Christmas is a Women’s Title match, she should beware…“Riho, you’ll shoot your eye out, kid.”
*AEW stars share their admiration for Owen Hart…tournament coming…culminating at Double or Nothing.
(3) TBS Tournament: Ruby Soho defeats Nyla Rose…Ruby pulls Nyla off the turnbuckle & down into her Riott Kick for the win (10:38).
*Serena Deeb is pissed & not done with Shida yet.
(4) Malakai Black defeats Griff Garrison…Single Leg Crab for the submission win (03:15)…AFTER…Brian Pillman, Jr. in because Black won’t release the hold…Black Mass for Pillman.
*Matt Hardy & Private Party backstage…Hardy says when Kassidy takes Jungle Boy out, Private Party will take their spot as #1 contenders to the tag titles.
(5) CM Punk, Darby Allin, & Sting defeat MJF & FTR…MJF avoids Punk at all costs…eventually to the point of running through the crowd & up a flight of stairs, through the concourse, & back down another flight before returning to the ring & somehow not getting counted out…Dax puts himself in harm’s way to save MJF & takes a GTS, Scorpion Death Drop, & Coffin Drop before Punk makes the cover for the win (26:36)…AFTER…MJF makes his way to the announce desk to claim Punk was running from him like a coward…clearly Max is concussed from his suicide dive to the floor.
