300 is such a nice number. Just ask Zach Snyder.
AEW Dynamite reaches a huge milestone, airing tonight from Ontario, California. Close enough to being Toronto, but also couldn’t be further away from the 416.
“Hangman” Adam Page’s music hits and he walks out to the ring with purpose.
He says he’s going to be efficient with his given time. He wants to ride through “death itself for this”. He’s vowed to win the AEW Men’s Heavyweight Championship. He’s not letting this chance pass him by as long as he breathes. He knows they’re coming. He doesn’t care whether it’s The Elite or The Death Riders.
He challenges Jon Moxley to a Texas Death Match at All In.
Mox’s music hits as he walks to the ring with Marina Shafir and the briefcase. The two stare each other down before Moxley grabs a mic, enters the ring, and declines the challenge. He says Page doesn’t want that. He says Page doesn’t want to win at All In and the responsiblity that comes with the title. He says Page can’t handle the pressure of winning such a title, saying the Owen Tournament win wasn’t as big.
Moxley is confident that Page doesn’t have what it takes to walk away victorious. Things get physical very quickly.
Marina Shafir slaps Page a number of times. He steps towards her and The Death Riders pounce. Moxley and Shafir retreat as Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta beating down Page. Castagnoli hits a Neutralizer before they scatter like the wild dogs they are. Page grabs a mic and says that beating isn’t enough to keep him down. Castagnoli comes back but is met by Samoa Joe just outside the ring. The Death Riders look to pounce but Shibata and Hobbs come out quick.
Shafir tries to surprise Page from behind but he grabs the the briefcase. Moxley reluctantly agrees to a Texas Death Match at All In for the AEW Men’s World Championship 10 days from now.
As the “Cowboy Shit” chants rain down, Page says even Moxley knows that he will go to any length.
The Cowboy gives Marina Shafir a Buckshot Lariat!
HANGMAN PAGE HAS STUCK BACK AND STRUCK A CORD

Storm is ringside with dinner to take in the first match of the night.

Shirakawa attacks without hesitation but Mone quickly turns the tables. Her boots have photos of Storm taped to the bottoms. The Women’s World Champion is uncomfortable, to say the least.
Shirakawa regains the advantage only to cede it back to the CEO with a Meteora. The TBS Champion mocks her All In opponent.
Back from a commercial break, Mone reverses and pulls Shirakawa into a Statement Maker.
The action spills outside as Shirakawa hits a DDT. Mone comes back with a Meteora but lands on her bad right knee. The two get back in and hold each other’s wrists as they trade massive forearm shots.

Shirakawa tries for a submission but Mone cleverly counters and gets the three-count.
Winner: and still TBS Champion, Mercedes Mone.
She further attacks Shirakawa and then also hits “Timeless” Toni Storm as she tends to Mina Shirakawa.
Earlier today, Nick surprises Matt with a massive limo that’s got “Founding Fathers” insignia all over it. They drive through their hometown of Rancho Cucamonga, California.
They apparently haven’t been back to their hometown in 20 years. Not sure if I believe that.
2. 4-Way Casino Gauntlet Match: MJF vs. AR Fox vs. Anthony Bowens vs. Brody King
The Hurt Syndicate are out with MJF, of course.
MJF hands Brody King a wad of cash but he drops it to the mat. MJF runs and hides behind the commentary desk.

Mark Briscoe is a true one of one

He leaves but JetSpeed come out and go after The Hurt Syndicate. Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin make quick work of them as they’re already injured from last week.

Kevin Knights challenges Shelton Benjamin to a one-on-one on Collision.
3. The Young Bucks and Konosuke Takeshita vs. Bandido and Paragon
Takeshita starts against Bandido. They will face off at All In for Bandido’s ROH World TV Championship.
Bandido picks up Takeshita quite easily. Almost makes it look way too easy to pick up a man that size.
All six men quickly get involved and the action is – for lack of a better word – insane. The teams go at each other full-tilt.
Takeshita hits a crazy Pop-Up Liger Bomb on Bandido but the ROH World TV Champ fights back. He covers Takeshita but the Bucks break up the count.
The Bucks and Takeshita show off their chemistry, hitting some crazy moves on Bandido. Paragon make the save just in time.
Kyle O’Rielly hits the Bucks with forearms and then locks in a Front Guillotine on Takeshita. But The Alpha comes back with a massive shot. An EVP Trigger is followed by Raging Fire.
Winners: The Young Bucks and Konosuke Takeshita.
The Young Bucks don’t get to celebrate long as Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland come out looking for an answer to their question last week.
Swerve says they don’t want to be the EVPs, that there is one head, Tony Khan.
The Bucks finally say no. Matt asks what they would get out of the match. Ospreay confers with Strickland quickly. Will says that, if he and Swerve lose, neither can challenge for the Men’s World Championship for one year! Swerve doesn’t like this but accepts.
It will be EVP titles against World Championship Challenges at All In. If the Young Bucks win, neither Strickland nor Ospreay can challenge for Moxley’s title for a full year, regardless of who is champ during that time.
4. Swerve Strickland and Will Ospreay vs. The Beast Mortos and Dralistico
LFI rush the ring and quickly attack, taking advantage of the fact that Swerve was visibly unhappy with the twist Will put onto their All In match against the Young Bucks.
Will and Swerve fight back but LFI take control as there’s tangible tension between The Aerial Assassin and The Most Dangerous Man in AEW.
Will Ospreay shows off his athleticism with a textbook Sasuke Special, getting the crowd to chant his name footy style. Dralistico hits Swerve with a DDT on a counter and then drops Ospreay as well. Ospreay kicks out of the cover quickly.
Swerve and Will combine for a Swerve Stomp and Starbreaker on The Beast Mortos.

5. Kota Ibushi vs. “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada
The crowd rightfully chants “Holy Shit!” as this one gets underway with the bell.
The two lock up and Okada forces Ibushi to the ropes. before slinking out the other side of the ring. Don Callis surprises the broadcast team with his voice.
Okada bails after Ibushi connects with a couple of stiff strikes. The “Murderhawk” Lance Archer is ringside and talks his stuff to Ibushi. Okada takes advantage.
If there’s a wrestler that has a history with Okada that isn’t named Kenny Omega, it’s Ibushi.
